1
00:00:02,320 --> 00:00:02,800
Speaker 1: The following.

2
00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:04,840
Speaker 2: He is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and

3
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:06,600
Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.

4
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:09,800
Speaker 1: Cowboys.

5
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 3: This is He's Cowboys Storyline with Nick Eatman.

6
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 1: What's Up? It's time for Cowboys Storyline Tuesday, December nineteenth.

7
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: Cowboys taking on Miami Dolphins this week Christmas Eve game

8
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 1: in Miami should be a lot of fun. I think

9
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a lot of points. I don't know why.

10
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 1: I just think that game there's gonna be a ton

11
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 1: of points scored in that game. I think it's gonna

12
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:46,519
Speaker 1: be a lot of fun. And I think, you know,

13
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 1: the way the Cowboys played this last game, We've seen

14
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 1: how they they bounce back. They haven't lost two in

15
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 1: a row and really two seasons now, so I can't

16
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:59,280
Speaker 1: imagine that they'll be more focused this week. And you know,

17
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 1: maybe what happen and last night in the game Philadelphia

18
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 1: and Seattle, with Seattle winning there at the end, maybe

19
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: that rejuvenates them as well, knowing kind of what's in

20
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 1: front of it. I mean, it certainly did something to

21
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones, who said this morning on the radio one

22
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,040
Speaker 1: five to three the fan that he was dozing off

23
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 1: there late in the game, until Seattle made those two

24
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 1: plays and then he couldn't sleep till four in the morning,

25
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 1: just about what the impact of this game, of that

26
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 1: game could mean. So we'll talk about it a little bit.

27
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 1: The scenarios are not it's not a black and white situation.

28
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 1: Not easy to figure out. Right now, the Cowboys are

29
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 1: technically in the lead of the division. I think it's

30
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: because of the they have more wins in the division.

31
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 1: But it looks like Philadelphia if they went out, Philadelphia

32
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 1: has an easier path to win the division that it

33
00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 1: would lean to them because of the fifth high breaker

34
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 1: in the division, which would be strength of victory. So

35
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 1: strength of victory right now, the Eagles would have that

36
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: if it got to that tie break, if everybody went out.

37
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 1: But things can change a little bit. I was kind

38
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 1: of I was kind of, you know, playing with the

39
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 1: it was ESPN playoff Machine, playoff website they have, I

40
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 1: think it's called a playoff machine. It's pretty it's pretty neat.

41
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 1: You can go through and kind of assimilate every game,

42
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 1: of course, and I did that a few times, and

43
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:31,519
Speaker 1: I went through the rest of the season, and the

44
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,799
Speaker 1: Eagles stayed in the in the in the number two spot,

45
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 1: and so I kept moving with it and messing with it,

46
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: and finally I switched Buffalo and the Chargers, which I

47
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:45,359
Speaker 1: think played this week Buffalo and the Chargers, and that

48
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:47,920
Speaker 1: I switched that to the to the Chargers winning, and

49
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,639
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, the Cowboys jumped ahead of the Eagles.

50
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 1: So that right there should just tell you that it's

51
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 1: good they had. Cowboys have a chance if they went

52
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 1: out and the Eagles went out, they'll have a chance.

53
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 1: They got to have some things go right. But it

54
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,679
Speaker 1: goes down to their strength of victory between the teams

55
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: that they've played. It's not just common opponents. That's the

56
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 1: third tiebreaker. I think if they went out, that would

57
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 1: would would definitely that would just move to the next

58
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 1: tiebreaker because the Cowboys have lost too are the are

59
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 1: the The Eagles lost to Seattle and they've lost to

60
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,799
Speaker 1: the Jets, both teams the Cowboys beat, and the Cowboys

61
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,239
Speaker 1: have lost to the Bills, and then they would lose

62
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 1: and they've also lost to the Cardinals, which is a

63
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 1: team Philadelphia should beat. If this tiebreakers are gonna hold it.

64
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 1: If Philly doesn't win those games or lose, you know,

65
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 1: they lose to the Giants. Then that changes everything. So

66
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 1: the Eagles definitely and they're reeling right now. Of course

67
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 1: they've lost three in a row. But we've seen the

68
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 1: forty nine ers, who's three in a row, turn it

69
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 1: around as well, So we'll see, we'll see what's going on.

70
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 1: The point is three games ago, lots can happen. So

71
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 1: all right, let's figure this out here on the phone

72
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 1: line eight eight eight eight five five two two nine seven.

73
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 1: Let's go to the line right now. Mike been waiting.

74
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 1: He's in Colton, California, And Michael, what's up?

75
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 4: What's going on?

76
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 3: Nick?

77
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 4: Good morning? Shout out to the whole Cowboys nation. Hey, Nick,

78
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 4: I just man, I was trying to get through yesterday. Man,

79
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 4: you're a popular show man. It was hard, but I

80
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 4: I just I got a lot to say about about

81
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 4: that loss. Man. It's just really disappointing. But one thing

82
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 4: that that that I can't seem to get over. And

83
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 4: you know what, I hope.

84
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 3: That I'm wrong.

85
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 4: I'll be the first one to say, hey, that was

86
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:32,480
Speaker 4: a stupid take. I'm wrong, and you know, but I

87
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 4: just feel that Dak Prescott, you know, he's he's gonna

88
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 4: he's gonna play you know he's gonna have a good

89
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,599
Speaker 4: season and this and that, just like you know, we

90
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 4: had discussed before when I had brought up the CD

91
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 4: LAMB being the best eighty eight. But anyways, you know

92
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 4: Tony Romo with the numbers, this and that, you know,

93
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 4: putting up stats, but at the end of the day,

94
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 4: I don't think he can win the big game. And

95
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 4: you see it in his eyes when when when when

96
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,279
Speaker 4: he's in a big he looks like a deer in

97
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 4: the headlights, you know. And I'm afraid. What I'm afraid

98
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 4: of is that he's going to play himself into another

99
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 4: long term contract or let's just say a four or

100
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 4: five year deal, and we're gonna be stuck with this

101
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 4: guy another four or five years. And I don't mean,

102
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 4: I don't mean no disrespect to Dack by saying this guy,

103
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:16,600
Speaker 4: you know.

104
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 1: That sounds that sounds disrespectful to me. I mean honestly,

105
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:21,719
Speaker 1: like I know, you can say I don't mean disrespect,

106
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 1: but that does sound disrespectful when you're like stuck with

107
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 1: this guy, you know. But that's your opinion. That's fine, Yeah,

108
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,799
Speaker 1: And that's that's what it is. And I would imagine

109
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 1: you haven't called in the last five weeks, right, I

110
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 1: feel like you have.

111
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,160
Speaker 4: But I was just on last week we were talking

112
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 4: about Brandon Cooks.

113
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 1: Not that no, no, I got it. If that's how

114
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:45,840
Speaker 1: you feel, that's that's certainly how you feel. I mean,

115
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 1: you know, it's one thing to to say, hey, this

116
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 1: guy's a good quarterback, he's not going to take us there.

117
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 1: And if that's how you believe, you know, I I

118
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 1: look at it like he hasn't taken them there. I

119
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 1: don't think. I don't think that he hands just they haven't.

120
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 1: They haven't gone there. I still feel like Tony Romo

121
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 1: was a really really good quarterback. They didn't get there.

122
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 1: They didn't get there.

123
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 4: At the end of the day, being really good does

124
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 4: not win championships, you know, just doing it, you know,

125
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 4: like we like you had said when I told you

126
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 4: about the Ada and he made a great point. You know,

127
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 4: I told you Trayton was the best and you said

128
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 4: why and I said, because of the titles. And at

129
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 4: the end of the day, the quarterback, you know, everybody

130
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 4: looks at those titles that he may not have the

131
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 4: numbers Romo has and maybe Dak will have, you know,

132
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 4: a when he's all sat and done. But at the

133
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:33,279
Speaker 4: end of the day, he was a champion. You know,

134
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:36,279
Speaker 4: he won when it mattered. He show up and he

135
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 4: won the big game. You know what I'm saying. And

136
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,240
Speaker 4: one more thing, if I may, you know, I may

137
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 4: be getting a little ahead of myself, but I hear

138
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 4: these rumors that look, I just honestly, I'm gonna keep

139
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,279
Speaker 4: it real. I don't think we're gonna go anywhere in

140
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 4: the playoffs. I think we'll be one and two and done,

141
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 4: you know, I mean, just like the recent history. But

142
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,039
Speaker 4: if the Steelers go ahead and let go Mike Tomlin, man,

143
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,159
Speaker 4: I hope we jump on that dude straight up, because

144
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 4: McCarthy's a good coach and all, but just ain't cutting it.

145
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 4: They ain't cutting it, and Dak Prescott.

146
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 2: Ain't gonna get it done.

147
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 5: But thank you very.

148
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:09,160
Speaker 1: Much for hearing me out, all right, appreciate it. Interesting.

149
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 1: That's interesting that that one guy over here who's not

150
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 1: winning any games anymore and and they're struggling and he's

151
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 1: gonna maybe get let go, And he's won one super

152
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 1: Bowl and he's been a you know, solid, good, solid

153
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 1: coach is better than the guy you've got that's that

154
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 1: has a better resume or just as good of a resume.

155
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 1: That that seems weird to me, But hey, you can

156
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 1: think that way about Dak and maybe maybe they never win,

157
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 1: maybe that they never get to the to the that point.

158
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 1: I don't look at it as stuck with Dak. I

159
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 1: think that you know, he's he's still learning, he's still

160
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 1: getting better, and that's that's that's I know a lot

161
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 1: of people have said, you're in your eighth year, now,

162
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 1: you shouldn't beat you should have figured out. That's not true.

163
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 1: That's not true. These guys, these quarterbacks, you're always learning,

164
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 1: You're always picking something up, especially if you think that

165
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: Romo was good, if you really liked Romo, Romo was

166
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 1: learning all the way until the end of his career.

167
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 1: So I think that's only a natural thing. I feel

168
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 1: like Dak is certainly good enough to get you there.

169
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 1: And again, I've said that when they were down five,

170
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 1: you know, five weeks ago, seven weeks ago, I've said that,

171
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: and then you know it hasn't been brought up when

172
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 1: they're going and steamrolling five straight wins, but then it

173
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 1: gets brought up again. So I get it. If that's

174
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 1: the way people feel, all right, Brian and Pennsylvania is

175
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 1: our next caller.

176
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 6: Hey, Nick, how you doing.

177
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:37,199
Speaker 1: I'm good? What's up?

178
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 6: But not much just looking at you know what we've

179
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 6: been going through. This is honestly the game that I

180
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 6: felt was going to be the most difficult for the

181
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 6: rest of the year, just because of Josh Allen and

182
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 6: his physicality. Obviously we saw the physicality. The biggest concern

183
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 6: now though, is that the offense isn't doing the defense

184
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 6: any favors and as far is stopping the run and

185
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 6: stopping the teams that focus on it. We've got the

186
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,440
Speaker 6: forty nine ers, We've got the Lions, We've got the Eagles.

187
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,960
Speaker 6: Everybody who is who are going to have to face

188
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 6: to get through to the NFC Championship, into the playoffs

189
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 6: and possibly into the Super Bowl. So what do you

190
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,200
Speaker 6: see as like a way what can we do to

191
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 6: adjust I mean, our personnel at this point in the season.

192
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 6: What is there? Do we just have to play it

193
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 6: out and hope the offense just shows up every week

194
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 6: or is there an adjustment that you would see that

195
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:35,559
Speaker 6: would actually because I've said that this team is different,

196
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 6: but it's I think.

197
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 7: They have that hole.

198
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 6: They're young, they don't have that consistency that they can

199
00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 6: build on and sometimes they can fight through it and

200
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,079
Speaker 6: sometimes they can't. So what do you think, what do

201
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 6: you think they need to do right now? Any small

202
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,680
Speaker 6: adjustment they can do to kind of get on this

203
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,200
Speaker 6: right track and have the offense help the defense and

204
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,079
Speaker 6: not put us into these situations anymore.

205
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 1: That's it. I mean, that's it. I think the call, Brian,

206
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 1: the number one thing that this team needs to do

207
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 1: to stop the run is to run the ball. Is

208
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 1: to run the ball or at least move the ball.

209
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,199
Speaker 1: I mean, you would like them to be balanced on offense,

210
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 1: run it, be able to pass it, throw it around.

211
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 1: That's that's how That's how they've been stopping the run.

212
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,440
Speaker 1: This thing hasn't really been fixed. We know that it

213
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 1: hasn't been fixed since last year. I mean Hankins in

214
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 1: the lineup. They're better obviously when Hankins is there than

215
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 1: when they're not. We saw that. That's why they traded

216
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 1: for him. Then he got hurt and then things struggled,

217
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 1: and then he comes back last year and they get

218
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 1: they got better there and we've seen it this year too,

219
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 1: So that's that's a part of it. But this offense

220
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 1: is scoring points. They get the ball a lot of

221
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 1: times to start the game. Go look at their scoring

222
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:52,679
Speaker 1: in the first quarter or in the first half. They

223
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:56,080
Speaker 1: have these leads. They're putting teams in position where they

224
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,800
Speaker 1: really can't just stay committed. And not everybody runs the

225
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 1: same way. Not everybody can do what Buffalo does, the

226
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: commitment to run and the way that they run. Arizona

227
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 1: did it and they stayed committed, but they also had

228
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:14,080
Speaker 1: the lead. When the Cowboys can get the lead, it

229
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 1: changes the course of the entire game. And that's why

230
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 1: it's important. That's why sometimes Mike McCarthy wants to take

231
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 1: the ball early. He's done it this year. He feels

232
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 1: like if he can set the tone score put the

233
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,599
Speaker 1: team on their heels, then that takes them out of

234
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:33,679
Speaker 1: their running game. So that's the number one thing. Defensively, Yeah,

235
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 1: I mean, they have to be able to be more

236
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:37,920
Speaker 1: controlled in their gaps. They got to get all the

237
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 1: defensive ends to buy in. These linebackers got to get off,

238
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 1: you know, the blocks, you know. But that's what they've

239
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 1: chose to do. Though. You know, they're trying to win

240
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,560
Speaker 1: with this matchup because they want to be quicker, they

241
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,319
Speaker 1: want to move a safety name Markue's Bell and make

242
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,079
Speaker 1: him a linebacker. Daimon and Clark make him a lot.

243
00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 1: You know he's a linebacker, but I mean he's undersized

244
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,440
Speaker 1: and these skys fast are a little bit you know,

245
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 1: more athletic then you would say some of these other linebackers.

246
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:07,839
Speaker 1: But you give up something when you do that. You know,

247
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 1: it's not a basketball team that just plays five guards.

248
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 1: Well you're gonna you're gonna have advantage over here, but

249
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,560
Speaker 1: over here you may not get a rebound. You have

250
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,440
Speaker 1: to give up something when you have a mismatch. And

251
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 1: so that's what And sometimes when these teams are committed,

252
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:23,720
Speaker 1: they get their guards to the next level. I mean

253
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 1: that they're pushing these linebackers around. So it does start

254
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,559
Speaker 1: up front, right in the center. They got to be

255
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 1: more controlled in the gaps. There's there's some tweaks that

256
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 1: they can make. But the big thing, the way this

257
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 1: this offense, this team is built right now. They got

258
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 1: to score points. They got to get the ball that

259
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:41,679
Speaker 1: they got to score. In a game like that, when

260
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:43,920
Speaker 1: they couldn't score, I mean, it was just it was

261
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 1: just downhill. And that's where the Bills were running downhill,

262
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 1: all right, Johnny in South Carolina is our next caller?

263
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 8: Hey, how you doing?

264
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 1: How you doing? All right? Whoop pick? That's right.

265
00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 8: A couple of things, you know, And this is the

266
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,840
Speaker 8: we've talked about this, or people have talked about this continuously.

267
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 8: Is is the toughness of the offensive and defensive line

268
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 8: when they start getting bullied around, pushed around. My concern

269
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 8: on defense is that dam Quinn does a.

270
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 9: Great job with great athletes, but.

271
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 8: Technically they're not very safe. I mean, we talk about

272
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 8: them running the ball. They couldn't set the edge the

273
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:34,199
Speaker 8: other nights and that's the most simple thing in football

274
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 8: that you first thing you got to do on defense

275
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:40,680
Speaker 8: to set the edge. I'm concerned that we can't. The

276
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:44,839
Speaker 8: Cowboys can't do those things, and that's what allows them

277
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:50,720
Speaker 8: to run over you. Outside. Inside, the linebackers are almost

278
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 8: non existent. As far as the hoping with the run

279
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,040
Speaker 8: game that could because the defensive lines not keeping them

280
00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:01,959
Speaker 8: off their legs. Yeah, there's gotta be an adjustment. I mean,

281
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 8: if you can't stop the team from running with a

282
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 8: four men one, maybe you gotta throw some five men.

283
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 4: One at him.

284
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 8: Not all the time, front times, I mean, but it

285
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 8: just felt like the other night. We just sat there

286
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 8: doing the same thing over and over, expecting a different result.

287
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 8: And that's a bad recipe.

288
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 1: Definitely, definitely was about it. Sorry, no, I appreciated that.

289
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 1: It's good call, Johnny, And you're right it it was

290
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 1: a little bit frustrating because you just like it didn't

291
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 1: you didn't see those adjustments and and and maybe they

292
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 1: were there and and you know, Buffalo made some adjustments

293
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 1: as well. I mean that they just they just seemed

294
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 1: a step ahead. But in a game like that and

295
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 1: the weather it wasn't a factor really, I mean it was,

296
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 1: it was different, but I mean Cowboys beat the Giants

297
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 1: forty to nothing in a rainstorm. Worse than that, you know,

298
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 1: first game of the season. It makes it a little

299
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 1: bit harder to throw the ball around, but that it

300
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 1: is harder to do that. And so like you said,

301
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 1: maybe maybe you stacked the box even more and you say, hey, man,

302
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 1: if you're gonna go and and you know, Digs made

303
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 1: a one handed catch and they you know, they threw

304
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 1: the ball around, but if you looked at it was

305
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 1: their tight ends. I mean Dawson, Knox, maybe Kinkaid. I mean,

306
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 1: they they had they had trouble catching the ball on

307
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 1: that play that that cursed that terrible penalty that that

308
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 1: they called on him, which I'm sorry, I'm just gonna

309
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna still look at that and go, well,

310
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 1: this is football, and I thought that was that was

311
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 1: an awful penalty. Uh in the game. But he dropped

312
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: the ball too, which hurt. You know, that hurt the

313
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 1: Cowboys on that play. But but I think my point

314
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 1: is is that throwing the ball and catching the ball

315
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 1: was not as easy as running the ball. So you

316
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: kind of you kind of had you know, it was

317
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 1: a head scratcher a little bit on why they played

318
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 1: it that way and continued to play it that way

319
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 1: knowing that Buffalo was going to run and that was

320
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 1: kind of the best thing that they did. So but

321
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: it is what it is. It happened just nothing, nothing

322
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,040
Speaker 1: went right. I mean you try to think, look at

323
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 1: guys that played well in the game. I mean, you know,

324
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 1: we're done, Okay, that's it. I mean into that segment

325
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 1: there really was nobody. The punter. I he had nice punt.

326
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 1: It's about it, though, Aubrey. You know another field goal

327
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 1: he made, had a couple of touchbacks. But it really

328
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 1: was it was just a bad game all the way around.

329
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,760
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to some text questions here, Carl,

330
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:39,240

331
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,240

349
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,240
Speaker 1: to think about that. But that reminded me. But favorite

350
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:39,639
Speaker 1: Christmas memory from the Cowboys. You know, I'm trying to

351
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 1: think like like there's been there's been some. I mean,

352
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:47,680
Speaker 1: I remember waking up on Christmas Day in Tennessee, Nashville,

353
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,160
Speaker 1: Tennessee in two thousand. It's an awful Cowboy game against

354
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 1: the Titans. They lost thirty one to nothing in that

355
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 1: game two thousand, but I mean woke up and stayed

356
00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:00,119
Speaker 1: at like the Gaylord and not in Nashville. Is the

357
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 1: nice hotad ever stated, I thought that was pretty awesome,

358
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 1: but it was like, you know, Christmas morning that you

359
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,160
Speaker 1: wake up and you wait for the Monday night game.

360
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 1: But uh, you know, the year before is my first

361
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,840
Speaker 1: year with the Cowboys. They played the Saints on Christmas Eve,

362
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 1: I believe, like a Friday game, and they lost to

363
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 1: the Saints, and it looked like the season was over

364
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:24,359
Speaker 1: because they lost that game, they're not going to make

365
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,680
Speaker 1: the playoffs. And it was a bad loss because yeah,

366
00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,480
Speaker 1: I mean the Saints weren't very good. But I remember

367
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 1: after the game, EMMITTT. Smith went down the down the

368
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,280
Speaker 1: aisle and he shook everybody's hand. I mean, a lot

369
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,360
Speaker 1: of the media some of this, whether it be scouts

370
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,479
Speaker 1: or you know, sponsors that were on the trip. Who

371
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 1: knows who's all on there. He walked in, you know,

372
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 1: shook everyone's hand with everybody, even in the aisle in

373
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 1: the window, you know, reached over and just said everyone,

374
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,639
Speaker 1: Merry Christmas and all that. You know. That's that's the

375
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 1: stuff that I remember from em. And I told that

376
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 1: story the other day about Mit in the bag and

377
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,520
Speaker 1: all that. But you know, he could be that way,

378
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 1: but he's also the guy that would you know, seasons

379
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,439
Speaker 1: pretty much over and he's over here, you know. And

380
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,399
Speaker 1: it wasn't though they actually got lucky with some of

381
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:10,879
Speaker 1: the other games. They ended up making it to the

382
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 1: playoffs that year. But that's one of the things I

383
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 1: do remember about Christmas and in him at Smith. I

384
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 1: think let's let's get another question Mike from Houston. I

385
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:24,200
Speaker 1: know this is a sensitive subject. Oh keep should I

386
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:29,719
Speaker 1: keep reading his parsons? A one trick Pony wasn't involved

387
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 1: in stopping the run many solo tackles pass rush only,

388
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 1: I don't believe so. I think he's an outstanding pass rusher,

389
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 1: and I think he does that better that he does

390
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 1: stop the run. But one trick Pony when you're the

391
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 1: best in the league at doing that, or one of

392
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,879
Speaker 1: the best at rushing the passer and getting there getting

393
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 1: the pressures. That's pretty good. Now, I don't he's not.

394
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 1: It's not one trick pony. It's just that's what you

395
00:19:57,920 --> 00:19:58,920
Speaker 1: do the best.

396
00:19:58,880 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 10: You know.

397
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 1: I mean, I think he's it's like a home run

398
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:05,680
Speaker 1: hitter that also hits with average, but he's a home

399
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 1: run hitter from from that standpoint, No, I don't believe that.

400
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 1: One thing I do think is amazing though. I mean, seriously,

401
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 1: this is again calling out the officials, but this is

402
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 1: this is this is the thing where I think Micah

403
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 1: Parsons has to get better. Okay, it's don't call out

404
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 1: the officials, don't call him out. Don't call him out

405
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,440
Speaker 1: on your podcast, don't don't. Don't sit there and talk

406
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 1: about that stuff. We all know it. I mean, he's like,

407
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 1: if he's not leading the league in pressures, he's right

408
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,399
Speaker 1: up there. I mean, because he's got like almost eighty

409
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 1: eighty five pressures. But he hasn't had a holding call

410
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:43,800
Speaker 1: in thirty four consecutive quarters. That's over eight games. He

411
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 1: has not had a holding call in over eight games.

412
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 1: This is the guy that leads to the NFL in

413
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 1: pressures and he's always living back there, but yet no

414
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:55,159
Speaker 1: one is holding him, not one time in eight and

415
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:57,479
Speaker 1: a half games. It doesn't make any sense other than

416
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 1: the fact that you're talking to much, you're calling out

417
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:03,439
Speaker 1: the officials, you're calling I mean, you don't think they

418
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:07,200
Speaker 1: hear that stuff. I definitely think it matters, and I think,

419
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,680
Speaker 1: you know, I understand, you know, you get a chance,

420
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,119
Speaker 1: you know, to listen to the podcast. I really haven't

421
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:14,960
Speaker 1: heard a lot of it, but I kind of hear

422
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 1: what some of the things he says. And there's no

423
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 1: way that that helps. There's no way that that is

424
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: because it's not helping him get calls. It's probably helping

425
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 1: him the other way. That's just my take on it.

426
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,399
Speaker 1: You know, I think I think that some of that

427
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 1: stuff happens a little bit, and I just don't think,

428
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:35,639
Speaker 1: you know, it's a smart move to be calling out,

429
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:39,120
Speaker 1: you know, the officials and saying some of the things

430
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 1: that he has done. But I mean, but he's too

431
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 1: good of a player to not be getting holding calls.

432
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,119
Speaker 1: We watch it every single snap, every play. It feels

433
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,159
Speaker 1: like that they're holding him. So I don't know what

434
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,679
Speaker 1: other reason they would be it's just the you know,

435
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:55,320
Speaker 1: hopefully just keep your head down, keep going, keep getting,

436
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,720
Speaker 1: you know, keep getting these plays, and and not talk

437
00:21:57,760 --> 00:21:59,639
Speaker 1: about it so much because I don't. I don't certainly

438
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:01,359
Speaker 1: don't think it's helping them. I mean, there's no way

439
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 1: you can go thirty four consecutive quarters when when you're

440
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 1: a one trick pony Russian, you know, it's that trick's

441
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,640
Speaker 1: not working so much, you know, getting getting a call?

442
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:11,880
Speaker 1: I can tell you that. All right, Bob and Rio

443
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 1: grand Valley's our next caller? Or did I miss it?

00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 2: It's christ Connected.

446
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:24,040
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Bob, You'll be next. Chris. What's up?

Speaker 2: Nick? A huge fan? Thanks for taking my call.

Speaker 2: This is the first time I've called you on this show.

452
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:36,880
Speaker 2: All Right, I'm all right, I'm so glad you got there.

453
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:38,680
Speaker 2: You go?

454
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:39,480
Speaker 7: Boy?

455
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:40,399
Speaker 3: What a that?

456
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 2: That last stat that you gave just kind of blows

457
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:42,920
Speaker 2: my mind.

458
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 1: But I think it was I couldn't believe it. I

459
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,400
Speaker 1: can believe yeah. And I was told about it when

460
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,560
Speaker 1: it was thirty one, and now it's thirty four, and

461
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:51,680
Speaker 1: I was just like, oh my goodness, so.

462
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 2: Wow, that's crazy. You know, it's funny, and I've been

463
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 2: I've been guilty of this from times. It's just funny

464
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:00,880
Speaker 2: how how quickly people are so quick to jump off

465
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 2: the bandwagon all of a sudden, Like that game the

466
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 2: other night, I had nothing to do with Dak's play

467
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:08,679
Speaker 2: at all. That was a pure team loss. What I

468
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:11,439
Speaker 2: can't figure out is how is it year year in

469
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:13,320
Speaker 2: and year out. Those two things I want to mention.

470
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 2: One is the penalties year and year after year they're

471
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 2: in the top two or three most penalized teams. I

472
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,520
Speaker 2: just don't get it at all, Like, how do you

473
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:26,399
Speaker 2: not fix that? So there's that. And then secondly, the

474
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,920
Speaker 2: thing that that that really bothered me the other night

475
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 2: was was the they're down fourteen and nothing, They've got

476
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 2: second and like a foot from the eleven yard line.

477
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 2: You know, why not just why not just have Dak

478
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 2: sneak it? Why do you got to get tricky? I

479
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:47,919
Speaker 2: feel like so many times the offensive coordinators, you know,

480
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 2: obviously in this case it's Mike, but why do they

481
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 2: he just seems to overthink things sometimes because you know

482
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 2: you're gonna tricks people. It's like, oh, just you need

483
00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:58,919
Speaker 2: the touchdown there, Come on, man.

484
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:00,439
Speaker 1: Oh you had to have the touch down. I mean

485
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:04,240
Speaker 1: that second and one play at the eleven was huge

486
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 1: because they got a four yard loss or three yard

487
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:09,640
Speaker 1: loss and then they didn't get it and on third

488
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:11,439
Speaker 1: down had to kick a field goal. I agree with

489
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:15,080
Speaker 1: you there, but I'll say this, when it's second and

490
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:19,719
Speaker 1: one at the eleven, I'm thinking it's almost like I'm

491
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 1: not saying it's a free play, but sneaking it there.

492
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,200
Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys have heard this. Derek

493
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:29,119
Speaker 1: Eagleton sits next to me and he has for years

494
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,120
Speaker 1: in the press box. And the thing that I think

495
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:33,760
Speaker 1: is I hate the most. I'd love to see a

496
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 1: stat on it. First and goal from the ten you're

497
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,920
Speaker 1: not scoring. I mean, this team's not scoring a touchdown.

498
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 1: First and goal in the ten is really really tough.

499
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 1: So you get a yard and you get a first

500
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:48,120
Speaker 1: down to the ten or maybe to the nine. It's

501
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:49,879
Speaker 1: almost like getting the I mean, you're gonna get a

502
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 1: field goal anyways. So second and one, they're thinking maybe

503
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:55,199
Speaker 1: we get four or five yards, but we get in,

504
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 1: you know, first down into the five and that changes everything.

505
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,680
Speaker 1: It's probably four down territory. So I don't think they

506
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:03,640
Speaker 1: wanted to do that. In retrospect, he would have rather

507
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 1: than you know, get the first down. I get that,

508
00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:10,120
Speaker 1: But the Bills called a perfect defensive play for that one,

509
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,520
Speaker 1: you know, that play where their safety comes in and

510
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,880
Speaker 1: just doesn't get blocked and just blows up the play.

511
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,280
Speaker 1: It was a great call by them. Yeah, I mean,

512
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: you want to just take it back and go, man,

513
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,040
Speaker 1: just get the first down, And you're right in most cases,

514
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 1: you know. I looked last night at that game the

515
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:29,080
Speaker 1: Eagles in Seattle, and then third and three from like

516
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:32,000
Speaker 1: the twenty something yard line, they roll out, throw an

517
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 1: incomplete pass and then kick a field goal, And I'm

518
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:39,399
Speaker 1: thinking third and three Hurts is gonna get. He's not

519
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,919
Speaker 1: gonna get three, but he's probably gonna if you just

520
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 1: if you push him for one and a half to two,

521
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 1: do it again on fourth down. It's not getting stopped,

522
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:51,200
Speaker 1: so that they kind of I think sometimes My point

523
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 1: is sometimes they don't use these sneaks early enough. You know,

524
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 1: why is it have to be fourth and one for

525
00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:00,199
Speaker 1: dak to sneak? How about third and one? And in

526
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,919
Speaker 1: your case you're saying second one my only case, My

527
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:04,880
Speaker 1: only point there would be I did I wouldn't want

528
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 1: first in goal from the ten. I wouldn't want that.

529
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:09,879
Speaker 1: I think Aubrey should just be getting ready anyways, on

530
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:14,399
Speaker 1: first and goal in the ten. Yeah, sorry, went on

531
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:16,359
Speaker 1: a rant there you got anything else? I'm sorry, Chris.

532
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:18,400
Speaker 2: No, I was just going to say, you know, they

533
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:22,240
Speaker 2: just how they kill themselves over and over with penalty

534
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:27,400
Speaker 2: now it's just I don't get it. But yeah, itsfected,

535
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 2: it hasn't.

536
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:31,679
Speaker 1: I have a theory on that. Uh, I'll let you

537
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 1: go on that. Thanks. Thanks, uh, thanks Chris for the call.

538
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 1: What what I need to look up? And I'll I'll

539
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 1: do this, I say on the break, we's just we

540
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:44,919
Speaker 1: just we're gonna keep rolling, Chris. We're going to keep

541
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:48,960
Speaker 1: rolling through through the break here. But you know, where

542
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 1: are they in sacks? I need to I need to

543
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:53,439
Speaker 1: look at this. Where are they in sacks in the league?

544
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 1: You know? Do they are they right at the top?

545
00:26:56,040 --> 00:27:00,159
Speaker 1: Where are they in pressures? Have about turnovers? If and

546
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,959
Speaker 1: I have a feeling the Cowboys are up there in

547
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:08,080
Speaker 1: sacks and in pressures and in turnovers. And I'm not

548
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 1: giving them excuses here for penalties. I'm just saying, when

549
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:14,440
Speaker 1: you have a team that's aggressive and they're getting after

550
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,760
Speaker 1: the quarterback and they're making plays on the ball, you

551
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 1: are going to give up some things from a penalty

552
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:24,240
Speaker 1: standpoint every now and again. That doesn't mean you should

553
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 1: line up off sides. That doesn't mean you should run

554
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:31,439
Speaker 1: into the punter. I get that. But you know, I

555
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:35,159
Speaker 1: went back and I always remember DeMarcus where it flows

556
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 1: Oul Adams. These guys were getting a penalty almost every game,

557
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,719
Speaker 1: you know. I mean the year that DeMarcus had nineteen

558
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,240
Speaker 1: and a half sacks, or maybe he was twenty sacks,

559
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,120
Speaker 1: like in two thousand and eight, I think he had

560
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:48,159
Speaker 1: an off side penalty every snap. I mean I mean

561
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 1: every game, not every snap. Every game it had like one.

562
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: You'll take that. You'll take that if your guys getting

563
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:56,879
Speaker 1: off the ball and getting sacks and stuff like that.

564
00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 1: So being aggressive, being overly agressive, there's a line. And

565
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 1: then again the Cowboys are over it when it comes

566
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 1: to some of these costly penalties. These some mistakes that

567
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,720
Speaker 1: you just can't have. And I mean that game is different.

568
00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,600
Speaker 1: It's it's it looked like a like it was a

569
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:18,720
Speaker 1: blowout game. But that was you give me two of

570
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 1: those penalties back and it's a different football game. And

571
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 1: then they have to play different as well. But that's

572
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,680
Speaker 1: the Cowboys' fault. They gave them these plays, they gave them.

573
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 1: That's what I wrote in my article. It was it

574
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 1: was too much season of giving. You know, you don't

575
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,560
Speaker 1: need to be given away the fifteen yards of pop

576
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:40,960
Speaker 1: like that. So especially when they're when their offenses all,

577
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 1: you know, off the field or walking off the field,

578
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 1: and you put them back on there and say no, no,

579
00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 1: you're not done yet. Go score, And then they did that.

580
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 1: That was that was huge to me. All right, let's

581
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 1: go with U. Now we go with Bob and Rio

582
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 1: grand Valley doing good? How are you doing good?

583
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 3: I appreciate very much the analysis that you just gave,

584
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:06,719
Speaker 3: But about what happened in that game, I sat here

585
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 3: at the house and I was play by play right

586
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:17,600
Speaker 3: here and thinking, and when I saw the penalties and

587
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:19,959
Speaker 3: not getting calls that we should have and then shooting

588
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 3: ourselves in the foot when we shouldn't have, uh, you know,

589
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,880
Speaker 3: one of us all said and done. We lost. Now

590
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:31,480
Speaker 3: here's here's my evaluation of where we're at. As a team.

591
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 3: We've got a great head coach, We've got a great

592
00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 3: defensive coordinator. They can scheme a game as well as

593
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 3: any coach in the league. They can do it with

594
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:47,719
Speaker 3: the players that they have buying injuries. If everything is

595
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:50,640
Speaker 3: the way it should be, the way we want it

596
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 3: to be, we can run and gun with anybody. But

597
00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 3: when you get you lose a key player here and

598
00:29:56,640 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 3: a key player there, and we lost several you got

599
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 3: to take and get back in the pot and use

600
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 3: someone that is not quite up to that first team

601
00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 3: of capabilities yet and make the best of it and

602
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 3: do the best you can. I feel that in Miami,

603
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 3: if we have to, we've got to run and gun.

604
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 3: We're not going to be able to run the ball

605
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,040
Speaker 3: on those guys, and we can't let them run it

606
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:27,080
Speaker 3: on us. We need to take if we win the

607
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 3: coin flip, we need to take the ball. We need

608
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 3: to score first. We need to put them in a

609
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,880
Speaker 3: catchup mode. We're going to have to do the same

610
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 3: thing against the Detroit Lions. If we do those things,

611
00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 3: there's a good chance that we can run out the

612
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 3: rest of the season. Are we going to wind up

613
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 3: with the home field advantage in the playoffs. I think

614
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:54,120
Speaker 3: that's very unlikely. But the bottom line is, you can't

615
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 3: blame it on that. Dak is a great quarterback. He

616
00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 3: does one hell of the job. He's a player, he's

617
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 3: a leader, he's respected, he's intelligent, he's very talented, and

618
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,400
Speaker 3: he's as good as any quarterback that we've ever had.

619
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 3: And Michael Parsons Micah is top drawer. So with that,

620
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 3: I'm going to shut up, all right, man, I tell you,

621
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:21,480
Speaker 3: but I would like for some of these people to

622
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 3: really think about what they're saying. Why in the name

623
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 3: of goodness would you want to swap Mike McCartney for Tomlin.

624
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:31,520
Speaker 3: Tomlin's a great coach, he is, but what would be

625
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 3: your advantage to do something like that. I mean, I

626
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 3: can't understand some people's thinking. With that, all shut up, all.

627
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:41,320
Speaker 1: Right, I appreciate it. I mean, you know, I agree.

628
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:43,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I agree, Mike Tomlin's been a really good coach.

629
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 1: It's a little different over there in Pittsburgh. I mean,

630
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 1: you realize they've had like three coaches in like fifty years.

631
00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 1: I mean like three. I feel like, I feel like

632
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 1: teams like the Panthers and the Colts, and then you know,

633
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. I mean, Houston, I feel

634
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:04,840
Speaker 1: like that they've had three like in the last five years,

635
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 1: but uh, you know a lot of patients. You have

636
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 1: to have success over there. I don't know. I mean,

637
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 1: we're not We're not we're getting into like tampering with

638
00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:17,280
Speaker 1: coaches or anything like that. Mike McCarthy. They just asked

639
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:19,680
Speaker 1: Jerry this morning on their on the radio about getting

640
00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 1: an extension. You know, we'll see how this thing plays out.

641
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 1: But there hadn't been many coaches, you know, in the

642
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 1: last thirty years for the Cowboys have put his team

643
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:36,440
Speaker 1: in the playoffs three straight years. I believe. I believe

644
00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 1: it would it would Switzer did ninety six. That's probably

645
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:43,920
Speaker 1: the last three times the Cowboys have made the playoffs

646
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 1: three straight years. Maybe I'm missing something with Garrett, but

647
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I don't. I don't think that

648
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 1: that happened. So there is a level of consistency there.

649
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:57,120
Speaker 1: And also the players really respect Mike McCarthy for how

650
00:32:57,160 --> 00:33:00,280
Speaker 1: he treats them. How he treats them, and I mean

651
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:03,560
Speaker 1: that with how he takes care of their bodies, gets

652
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,000
Speaker 1: them off their feet a lot. I mean, he really

653
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 1: thinks a lot about them. He kind of has a

654
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:15,040
Speaker 1: good understanding about what it takes to play twenty five weeks.

655
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,920
Speaker 1: This isn't a seventeen game schedule. We're talking about like

656
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,760
Speaker 1: twenty five weeks from training camp, get the you know

657
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:22,880
Speaker 1: the end. You got the bye week right before the season,

658
00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:24,360
Speaker 1: and then you got the game, and you got the

659
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:26,040
Speaker 1: bye week, and you're trying to get all the way.

660
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,360
Speaker 1: It's a process. It's a long haul, and he does

661
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:33,200
Speaker 1: a really good job with that. And so yeah, I

662
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,040
Speaker 1: think I think there's a lot more to it than

663
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,640
Speaker 1: just can you win the big game or not? You know,

664
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:42,080
Speaker 1: and that's maybe what it'll come down to. But I

665
00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:44,720
Speaker 1: think when when Jerry looks at this and he looks

666
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:46,520
Speaker 1: at it, you know, you got to put your team

667
00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:48,240
Speaker 1: in position to go win games. You got to have

668
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:51,520
Speaker 1: a good football team that can go win. And I

669
00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:53,719
Speaker 1: think he's done that. Now they got to do it.

670
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:57,680
Speaker 1: They just got to do it now. Text line question

671
00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:01,480
Speaker 1: here at five to one to two number, I guess

672
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:06,520
Speaker 1: that's that's down maybe Austin The Replacements best football movie

673
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:10,879
Speaker 1: of all time, The Replacements in North Dallas forty, North

674
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 1: Dallas forty. That was a that was a movie, I

675
00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:15,640
Speaker 1: guess in the eighties kind of kind of it was definitely,

676
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:20,560
Speaker 1: it was definitely made to you know, around the Cowboys

677
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:23,200
Speaker 1: in the seventies. It was, you know, it was a

678
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:26,640
Speaker 1: fake team in Dallas, but it was it was loosely

679
00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:29,600
Speaker 1: built off of some of the players and some of

680
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:33,800
Speaker 1: the storylines for the Cowboys North Dallas forty uh and

681
00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:36,920
Speaker 1: the Replacements, which is which was also based off nineteen

682
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:42,880
Speaker 1: eighty seven Strike with Washington, really the Washington Redskins, and

683
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:44,799
Speaker 1: that's what that team was built on. And then they

684
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:48,440
Speaker 1: go and they beat Dallas. So both those movies, you know,

685
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,120
Speaker 1: aren't aren't you know, real teams, but they were kind

686
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:56,279
Speaker 1: of they were kind of made off of real NFL scenarios.

687
00:34:56,440 --> 00:35:00,239
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to Robin, Vegas. What's that a rouble? Hey, Hey,

688
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:02,439
Speaker 1: how's it going? Calm down a little bit from since

689
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:03,239
Speaker 1: yesterday or what?

690
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:10,480
Speaker 5: Oh yesterday was calm oh, just unfortunately, it's it's just reality.

691
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:14,360
Speaker 5: Tennis team win a Super Bowl right now? Yes, it could.

692
00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 1: No, actually no, they can't. They cannot win a Super

693
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,399
Speaker 1: Bowl in mid December. And I'm not trying to I'm

694
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 1: not trying to joke. I'm just saying but we that's

695
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:24,560
Speaker 1: what we're talking about. We talked about can they win,

696
00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:26,759
Speaker 1: can they win? They're not gonna win tomorrow. They're not

697
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:30,280
Speaker 1: gonna win today. So that's that's why. That is why

698
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:33,319
Speaker 1: I kind of like always push back on callers, you know,

699
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:35,440
Speaker 1: like you when you say that, because this is what

700
00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:37,719
Speaker 1: it is. We're gonna be doing a show tomorrow. It's

701
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,840
Speaker 1: what we can control right now, and we're all projecting.

702
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 1: We're just projecting on what we think.

703
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:44,960
Speaker 5: The one thing. The one thing though, is let's be honest.

704
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:49,000
Speaker 5: This team is built more to win in the regular

705
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:50,759
Speaker 5: season than in the playoffs.

706
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:53,000
Speaker 1: Why Why do you say that? Why?

707
00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:57,240
Speaker 5: Because because they're a fast, a fast break football team.

708
00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 5: They want to play a game like they played in

709
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:04,799
Speaker 5: Seattle forty five thirty then a twenty seventeen type game.

710
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:10,439
Speaker 5: They're fast defense, but they're small. They're a fast, big

711
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 5: playoff on offense, where we don't get some big plays

712
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:16,360
Speaker 5: on offense. We're not the type of team that's going

713
00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,200
Speaker 5: to just like Buffalo said, Okay, we want you to

714
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:22,720
Speaker 5: march the ball down the field. We do it on spurts,

715
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:25,240
Speaker 5: but that's not our game. We don't want to play

716
00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 5: smash mouth football. We're not built for it. Let's be honest.

717
00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:32,200
Speaker 5: That comes from Jerry Jones too. He doesn't want that

718
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,840
Speaker 5: type of product on the field. The last time we

719
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:37,279
Speaker 5: had a team like that that was on the bill parcels.

720
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 5: He doesn't want that. He wants the Seattle type games.

721
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:45,080
Speaker 5: And let's be honest, in the playoffs, you don't have

722
00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:49,040
Speaker 5: those games that the games get tighter. Teams are not

723
00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 5: willing to take as many chances because you know, you lose,

724
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:56,640
Speaker 5: you go home. So you can't change that mentality unless

725
00:36:56,680 --> 00:37:00,800
Speaker 5: you get rid of your two head coaches, Dan Quinn

726
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 5: and Mike McCarthy, which I don't think Mike McCarty's definitely

727
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:06,799
Speaker 5: gonna stay. Dan Quinn I don't think so. I think

728
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:11,560
Speaker 5: he'll be gone. And Jerry Jones has to realize that

729
00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 5: we need to be bigger toughly. You know, we talk

730
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 5: about it all the time. Mike McCarthy talked about it.

731
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 5: We're not We're tiny on defense, where if Michael Parsons,

732
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:24,160
Speaker 5: they're gonna have to figure out if this guy's gonna

733
00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 5: play defensive end, he needs to go up to about

734
00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:29,960
Speaker 5: two hundred and seventy pounds or they're gonna say we're

735
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 5: just gonna run out them. Teams ain't stupid and so

736
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 5: so we're just not built to win in the players.

737
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:40,040
Speaker 5: Now we can, but it's gonna be tough to expect.

738
00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:41,759
Speaker 5: You got to go on the road if we get

739
00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:45,280
Speaker 5: home home field, which we won't, but let's be honest,

740
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:49,799
Speaker 5: home field, this team, the way they're constructed, we're tough

741
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:54,040
Speaker 5: to beat. But in the elements against the smash mount

742
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:57,120
Speaker 5: against the team that's willing to just pound us, we

743
00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 5: don't want that. And I don't know it's been like

744
00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:04,640
Speaker 5: that for years. You said, we're just not a physical team.

745
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 5: We don't have a physical offensive line, we don't have

746
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:09,080
Speaker 5: a physical defensive line.

747
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,839
Speaker 1: You took it back to you took it back to parcels.

748
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,880
Speaker 1: I mean, that's too far to me. I mean in

749
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:19,080
Speaker 1: twenty like fourteen, that was a smash boun football team.

750
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:21,440
Speaker 1: That was a good the team that lost with Dez

751
00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:23,640
Speaker 1: in Green Bay that I mean, but the.

752
00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:25,879
Speaker 5: Defense wasn't the defense wasn't that good.

753
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:30,200
Speaker 9: No, the offense, yes, yeah, I mean with Seek well.

754
00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,400
Speaker 5: He had his rookie year, but that was on the offense.

755
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:35,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean offensive line, but but never been Okay,

756
00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:37,640
Speaker 1: I thought you were saying that that, you know, not

757
00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:39,680
Speaker 1: sense parcels. Have they tried to have. I mean, no,

758
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,680
Speaker 1: they they want to be a physical type football team,

759
00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:45,319
Speaker 1: and I think they want this team to be that.

760
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,719
Speaker 1: They're just they're just not. They're just not. I think

761
00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:50,560
Speaker 1: it starts with center. I mean, I don't think Tyler

762
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:52,760
Speaker 1: Biattis is a guy that moves people around.

763
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,200
Speaker 5: But I think it's a mentality. Let's be honest. Blue

764
00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:03,839
Speaker 5: collar teams, uh, you know, Buffalo, San Francisco, Philadelphia, if

765
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:07,399
Speaker 5: they want to, but for whatever reason they don't want to, then.

766
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:09,480
Speaker 1: They're not blue collar. But then they're not blue collar.

767
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:12,200
Speaker 1: Don't put them in blue collar if they don't want to.

768
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:14,480
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know what it is about want to.

769
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:16,440
Speaker 5: But if they if they just well, I don't think

770
00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:17,879
Speaker 5: it's I don't think it's the players. I think it's

771
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:18,239
Speaker 5: a coaching.

772
00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:20,480
Speaker 1: Nobody wants to get their askicked. I mean, you know,

773
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:20,840
Speaker 1: I don't know.

774
00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:23,880
Speaker 5: Why Philadelphia does it say we got the best offensive

775
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:25,480
Speaker 5: line of football. Why don't we run the ball ball?

776
00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:27,960
Speaker 1: They probably should? They probably should, all right, Rob? Best

777
00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:31,160
Speaker 1: Football movie of all Time? Rob, Best football movie? Do

779
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:33,480
Speaker 5: Yeah?

780
00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 10: Yeah, probably?

781
00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:36,839
Speaker 5: I like the one with Denzel, but I can't remember.

782
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:40,640
Speaker 1: Remember the Titans that you didn't remember the Titans, but

783
00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:42,160
Speaker 1: remember the Titans got it?

784
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 2: And I.

785
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:45,239
Speaker 3: Do like the replacement.

786
00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:50,279
Speaker 1: All right, good stuff, all right, Rob, appreciate that. Good call.

787
00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:57,719
Speaker 1: All Right, Dylan in uh Northport, Florida's next. How you doing?

788
00:39:58,000 --> 00:39:59,839
Speaker 1: I'm good? All right?

789
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,160
Speaker 10: Second, Dyne all follow up the legend, Rob.

790
00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:03,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, he'll be homie.

791
00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 1: Best football movie do?

792
00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:07,839
Speaker 3: Water Boy?

793
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:13,040
Speaker 1: Just just like without hesitation? It was just slow water Boy?

794
00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:13,400
Speaker 3: Yeah.

795
00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:16,200
Speaker 10: I remember the Titans was good. That was the only

796
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:19,320
Speaker 10: serious football movie that I've really ever liked that I've watched.

797
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:22,759
Speaker 10: But water Boy just turn on and had some last

798
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:24,080
Speaker 10: We need some lasts.

799
00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:27,280
Speaker 1: We do, we do. We've been kind of talking about

800
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:30,000
Speaker 1: it and then different different We had a meeting yesterday

801
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:31,640
Speaker 1: and we talked about that a little bit. We had

802
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:34,920
Speaker 1: different movies been thrown around, but just Waterboy was not

803
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:38,040
Speaker 1: one of them. But that's cool. That's good. Great line

804
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:41,160
Speaker 1: by Dan Fouts, who's the commentator, when he just says,

805
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:43,919
Speaker 1: shut up, Brent. I don't know why that. Oh yeah,

806
00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:45,160
Speaker 1: that's funny.

807
00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:50,440
Speaker 10: All right, Yeah, I understand why people are panicking, but

808
00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:53,040
Speaker 10: kind of the I guess the topic of the day.

809
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:55,400
Speaker 10: It's not really necessary. It's a lot of recency bias

810
00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:58,800
Speaker 10: I think is kicking in talking about Dad can't do anything.

811
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,160
Speaker 10: He was an MVP can of a week ago, right,

812
00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:04,920
Speaker 10: Mike McCarthy. He, I mean he's been in the playoffs.

813
00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:06,640
Speaker 10: Every year's done here except for I think twenty twenty,

814
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:08,320
Speaker 10: which that was a whole mess of a year anyways,

815
00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:11,920
Speaker 10: So we can forget that one. But I also want

816
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 10: to ask this question too. I guess to all the

817
00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,960
Speaker 10: callers out there and everybody listening, who in the NFC

818
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:17,880
Speaker 10: are you scared of everybody's saying that a lot of

819
00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:19,239
Speaker 10: people are saying we're gonna be one and done or

820
00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:21,480
Speaker 10: done in the division around just because there's forty nine

821
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:22,040
Speaker 10: ers there?

822
00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:22,839
Speaker 1: Can I vote?

823
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:23,239
Speaker 9: That's it?

824
00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:28,920
Speaker 1: Forty Yeah, Okay, that's it. No, that's it. That's it.

825
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:30,640
Speaker 1: You're right now.

826
00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:32,520
Speaker 7: I mean, the Eagles are so good.

827
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:35,239
Speaker 1: Here's what I don't here. Here's here's I don't know

828
00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:40,160
Speaker 1: if scared is the right word. But I don't want

829
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:42,960
Speaker 1: the Cowboys to go to New Orleans. I'm just just

830
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:46,279
Speaker 1: gonna be honest. That's not the scenario that I think

831
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:51,080
Speaker 1: is good for them. Interesting to be the five seed scared, No,

832
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:54,320
Speaker 1: not scared, But to be the five seed if you

833
00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 1: if you don't get the number two, if you're the

834
00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:59,239
Speaker 1: five and you got to go play New Orleans. Not

835
00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:02,480
Speaker 1: really worried about Baker Mayfield in Tampa or definitely Atlanta,

836
00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:08,400
Speaker 1: but in New Orleans, that's that's just not an ideal situation.

837
00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:13,560
Speaker 1: Can they go win, yeah, will they win, probably, but

838
00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:15,799
Speaker 1: it's not a place you want to go get down

839
00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,560
Speaker 1: ten to nothing, you know, with that crowd and that,

840
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:20,840
Speaker 1: and then and then the way they run. Kamara is

841
00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:23,400
Speaker 1: playing in the way got Taysom Hill and you know

842
00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:26,080
Speaker 1: they can run. It's just not it's not ideal. So

843
00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:29,080
Speaker 1: I I don't look at that as, uh, well, you're

844
00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:31,520
Speaker 1: just gonna go beat somebody from in the South, like

845
00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:34,799
Speaker 1: if it's if it's New Orleans, I don't think that's

846
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:37,560
Speaker 1: that's a good matchup for the Cowboys. So that's the one.

847
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:40,520
Speaker 1: And not scared. It's just that, you know, I don't

848
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:42,640
Speaker 1: just just mark off an easy win from the five

849
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:45,440
Speaker 1: seed whoever you're playing in the four if it's New Orleans.

850
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:48,319
Speaker 10: So yeah, I hadn't thought about New Orleans. That's a

851
00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:50,000
Speaker 10: good point. I guess. The thing is that with them

852
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:51,920
Speaker 10: is you can get up hopefully to an early lead,

853
00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:53,400
Speaker 10: and kind of player brand football at that.

854
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:55,239
Speaker 1: You can do that, and Derek Carr is gonna be

855
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:57,200
Speaker 1: Derek Carr and all that. Yeah, I get that. I

856
00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:00,480
Speaker 1: totally get that. I just I'm just saying I've been

857
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:03,799
Speaker 1: there before, and I've seen I've seen games where you

858
00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:05,759
Speaker 1: think you're going to go win in New Orleans and

859
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:10,880
Speaker 1: it's ugly and fun. Fact, the only team in the

860
00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:15,280
Speaker 1: NFC the Cowboys have never faced in the playoffs is Ortons.

861
00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:17,920
Speaker 10: So well, I kind of hope it happens now.

862
00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:21,120
Speaker 1: You hope not me, I hope it. I hope it's

863
00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:23,080
Speaker 1: the you know, the Cowboys are the number two seed,

864
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:25,960
Speaker 1: and then you know, if New Orleans it gets in

865
00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:28,840
Speaker 1: as a seventh great, come on down, you know like

866
00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 1: that that that wouldn't worry me, and that that that's

867
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:34,800
Speaker 1: what's going to be so big here for the Cowboys

868
00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:37,720
Speaker 1: if they can get the two, because.

869
00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:41,000
Speaker 10: Yeah, having the home feel advantage against some of these teams,

870
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:44,320
Speaker 10: I mean obviously we've seen it. That's where they really shine.

871
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:46,960
Speaker 10: So that would be great. Yeah, and this loss of

872
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:50,080
Speaker 10: the Bills just super quick, I'll go fast here. You know,

873
00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:53,240
Speaker 10: it's concerning the way they lost, but it's an uncommon

874
00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:55,759
Speaker 10: AFC point. They went against all their tendencies. They usually

875
00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:57,960
Speaker 10: put the ball in Josh Allen's hands. They didn't he

876
00:43:58,080 --> 00:43:59,560
Speaker 10: put He took the ball in his hands and handed

877
00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:02,359
Speaker 10: all every and go play. And so we might see

878
00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:04,520
Speaker 10: the gain in Miami. And I hope people don't panic

879
00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:07,040
Speaker 10: if if Miami whoops us too. I mean, I don't

880
00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:08,799
Speaker 10: know about whooping, but it might. It might be another

881
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:12,160
Speaker 10: tough game. So you know, if they lose, I'm still

882
00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:15,000
Speaker 10: on the roller coaster ride. I'm still very confident in

883
00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:17,239
Speaker 10: our chances against the NFC, and if we get to

884
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:20,880
Speaker 10: the championship game against the Niners and his championship and

885
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:22,640
Speaker 10: then you know, at that point we're playing with house money.

886
00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:24,759
Speaker 1: So what happened, Well, I'm gonna tell you right now.

887
00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:27,200
Speaker 1: The Cowboys are gonna beat the Dolphins. That's that's my opinion.

888
00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:29,080
Speaker 1: I don't need I don't need to wait till Friday

889
00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,000
Speaker 1: to make a pick and gut feeling and all that.

890
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:34,000
Speaker 1: Cowboys are gonna, No, they're gonna, they're gonna beat them.

891
00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:35,480
Speaker 1: They're gonna beat them. I don't want to sit there

892
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:37,640
Speaker 1: and say they're gonna boat race them. I'm not It's

893
00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:39,640
Speaker 1: maybe not gonna be like that. It's gonna be a

894
00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:42,120
Speaker 1: high scoring game, probably, but I think the Cowboys are

895
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:44,040
Speaker 1: gonna put it on them. I really believe that. I

896
00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:47,400
Speaker 1: think I think there's something about this game. I've always

897
00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:50,160
Speaker 1: thought the Buffalo one kind of had me a little

898
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:53,319
Speaker 1: bit more concerned, maybe even Detroit like that. That game

899
00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:56,600
Speaker 1: is gonna be tough two in its own way. But

900
00:44:57,480 --> 00:44:59,360
Speaker 1: I mean, this is gonna be a tough game. But

901
00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:00,960
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna They're gonna give it to them.

902
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:04,319
Speaker 1: They're gonna give the Dolphins everything and it'll you know,

903
00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:07,240
Speaker 1: they got too much firepower to get their ass kicked Miami.

904
00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:09,520
Speaker 1: But I think I think the Cowboys are gonna bring it.

905
00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:12,640
Speaker 1: So that's what I believe. Yeah, it sounds good, a right,

906
00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:16,200
Speaker 1: I see it all right. More text message questions are

907
00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:20,400
Speaker 1: are comments on favorite movies. Carl from Nashville, Remember the Titans.

908
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:25,280
Speaker 1: Jeff from Oregon, North Dallas forty in Draft Day Interesting

909
00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:29,759
Speaker 1: draft Day. Draft Days is a tough one because it

910
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,560
Speaker 1: reminds me of the movie Days of Thunder. I loved

911
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 1: that movie. Days of Thunder auto racing movie. Knew nothing

912
00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:38,920
Speaker 1: about NASCAR, just loved it because it was really it

913
00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:41,359
Speaker 1: was like a remake to Top Gun. So loved it.

914
00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:44,239
Speaker 1: And then I kind of got into Nascar and understood

915
00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:47,759
Speaker 1: that the movie would never happen. And that's kind of

916
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:49,880
Speaker 1: the way Draft Day is to me. Just some of

917
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:51,400
Speaker 1: the just some of the things when you kind of

918
00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:54,279
Speaker 1: know the ins and outs of the scouting process and

919
00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:57,120
Speaker 1: you're like, really, really you're gonna look at tape the

920
00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:59,239
Speaker 1: day of the draft and make a big change and

921
00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:02,839
Speaker 1: watch something and the calls coach about why nobody went

922
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:04,839
Speaker 1: to his birthday party and all that stuff. I mean,

923
00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:08,240
Speaker 1: but you know, I watch it, but it's it's funny,

924
00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:13,120
Speaker 1: just the whole trading part. And another one from uh

925
00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:17,920
Speaker 1: from r d J in New Jersey Radio radio. It's

926
00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:20,320
Speaker 1: a good one. That's a good movie for sure. Brian

927
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:23,759
Speaker 1: in Kansas City is our next caller, Brian, what's up?

928
00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:27,840
Speaker 7: Good morning, sir. I'll go with Brian Song.

929
00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:31,239
Speaker 1: Brian Song. All right, you can always tell people's age

930
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:34,680
Speaker 1: a little bit. I'll say. I'll say this in the meeting.

931
00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:36,320
Speaker 1: We had a meeting the other day. We went around

932
00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:40,440
Speaker 1: we had we had to remember the Titans, we had replacements,

933
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:43,440
Speaker 1: and I looked at Mickey Mickey with Mickey's Bagdahl. I

934
00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:45,399
Speaker 1: wasn't doing anything. It's like, Mickey, what do you think

935
00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:48,360
Speaker 1: Brian song? He's like, yes, yes for sure. So I

936
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:51,439
Speaker 1: was like all right, so uh he said the same thing.

937
00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:54,240
Speaker 1: I haven't seen that movie. Maybe I should, Maybe I should.

938
00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:57,719
Speaker 7: Hey, I got a favorite Christmas memory. You'll have to

939
00:46:57,760 --> 00:47:00,359
Speaker 7: help me with the year. I think it's ninety five.

940
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:04,320
Speaker 7: But wasn't that the year on Christmas Day didn't break

941
00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:05,720
Speaker 7: the touchdown record?

942
00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:09,160
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, twenty five touchdowns against it, well, not against

943
00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:12,040
Speaker 1: the Cardinals, but it was, and that record's been broken,

944
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:15,759
Speaker 1: like you know since since then. I mean, but yeah,

945
00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:22,840
Speaker 1: that was a big, big game, and because and the Cowboys,

946
00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:25,000
Speaker 1: I mean have told this story several times. The day

947
00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:28,280
Speaker 1: before it was a Monday night game on the twenty fifth,

948
00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:32,279
Speaker 1: but the day before the forty nine ers, who kind

949
00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:34,000
Speaker 1: of kind of similar to this year, kind of had

950
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:36,640
Speaker 1: the Cowboys number. They'd already beaten them once pretty bad,

951
00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:40,160
Speaker 1: and they lost to the Falcons, and they got off

952
00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:42,160
Speaker 1: the plane in Arizona and they said, you know what,

953
00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:44,960
Speaker 1: we got to just win tomorrow night and then we're

954
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:47,520
Speaker 1: we got home field advantage. And that just kind of

955
00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:51,439
Speaker 1: rejuvenated them. They went and they beat the Cardinals there

956
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:56,799
Speaker 1: on Christmas Night. But yeah, and that movie, actually, I mean,

957
00:47:56,840 --> 00:47:59,759
Speaker 1: I'm sorry that that game is also kind of the

958
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:03,800
Speaker 1: bone to another movie, another football movie, Jerry maguire, because

959
00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:06,719
Speaker 1: they filmed a lot of that movie from that game

960
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:10,160
Speaker 1: there in that ninety five Cowboys and Cardinals. I don't

961
00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:12,120
Speaker 1: know if you've seen that movie, but you know, towards

962
00:48:12,160 --> 00:48:15,440
Speaker 1: the end and Rod tid Wells making plays and all that,

963
00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:17,560
Speaker 1: a lot of it was because they filmed it from

964
00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:18,640
Speaker 1: that game there in ninety five.

965
00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:21,479
Speaker 7: Huh No, I didn't know that. And I've seen the movie.

966
00:48:21,480 --> 00:48:23,440
Speaker 7: I did not know it was connection.

967
00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:25,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, you sees Barry Switzer a lot. You see some

968
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:27,239
Speaker 1: of the you know, they kind of go in and out.

969
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:30,480
Speaker 1: You can tell the difference obviously between just footage from

970
00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:32,560
Speaker 1: the sideline and all that. But they they took a

971
00:48:32,600 --> 00:48:34,880
Speaker 1: lot of that game and then kind of made it

972
00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:38,400
Speaker 1: made it, you know, that that Cowboys Cardinals game. So,

973
00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:41,440
Speaker 1: Jerry Maguire, I mean, if that's if you consider that

974
00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:44,319
Speaker 1: a football movie, and I think you know, if you're

975
00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:46,719
Speaker 1: one that thinks die Hard is a Christmas movie, we're

976
00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:49,880
Speaker 1: playing all that, then Yeah, Jerry Maguire definitely is a

977
00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:51,320
Speaker 1: football movie.

978
00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:54,279
Speaker 7: But absolutely, Hey, I got a question for you, so

979
00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:57,120
Speaker 7: you know, this is not quite as off the rails

980
00:48:57,160 --> 00:49:01,520
Speaker 7: as the sumo wrestler playing defensive tackles the you know,

981
00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:04,640
Speaker 7: with Hankins gone, I think this is just a temporary solution,

982
00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:07,560
Speaker 7: and of course it depends on whether the player wants

983
00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:10,440
Speaker 7: to do it and his temperaments a little hot and cold.

984
00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:14,960
Speaker 7: But I was thinking maybe we move Parsons back to

985
00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:19,040
Speaker 7: linebacker just until Hankins is back. It's just a thought

986
00:49:19,120 --> 00:49:22,960
Speaker 7: because I think Hankins kept Marquis, you know, the smaller guys,

987
00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:25,560
Speaker 7: Marquis Bell and so forth. I think he kept them

988
00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:28,560
Speaker 7: clean and that second level could flow. And I don't

989
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:29,840
Speaker 7: think we have that right now.

990
00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:30,880
Speaker 3: This doesn't look like it.

991
00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:34,359
Speaker 1: This may not okay, Thank thanks, Brian, appreciate this may

992
00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 1: not be the game for that. I mean, that's not

993
00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:40,080
Speaker 1: a bad thought, and and and obviously you can do

994
00:49:40,160 --> 00:49:42,440
Speaker 1: different things on different plays and all that. Just know

995
00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:45,680
Speaker 1: that that the speed element here with the Dolphins is

996
00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:47,480
Speaker 1: gonna be through the roof. You're gonna have to have

997
00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:50,160
Speaker 1: guys that can run all over the place. You know,

998
00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:52,640
Speaker 1: Marque's Bell, Yeah, he may not be the best one

999
00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:54,440
Speaker 1: when a guard gets to that next level, but you're

1000
00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:57,560
Speaker 1: gonna need You're gonna need these safeties closer to the box.

1001
00:49:57,560 --> 00:49:59,680
Speaker 1: You're gonna they're gonna have to go on sideline to sideline.

1002
00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:01,680
Speaker 1: The way that the Dolphins call plays, the way that

1003
00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:03,719
Speaker 1: they get these guys on the move. You didn't need

1004
00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:06,440
Speaker 1: as much speed as you can. So maybe, I mean,

1005
00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:08,440
Speaker 1: maybe you do play Parson some there. We got to

1006
00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:10,880
Speaker 1: get rolling one more call before we ended Eric in

1007
00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:12,759
Speaker 1: North Carolina.

1008
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:14,480
Speaker 9: Hey, Nick, how you doing good man?

1009
00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:15,000

1012
00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:24,840
Speaker 9: I was listening to you for years on the Cowboys

1013
00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:27,080
Speaker 9: break and it was before the game. I think it

1014
00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:32,000
Speaker 9: was twenty eighteen the Panthers. The Panthers to beat us

1015
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:35,040
Speaker 9: pretty bad that day. But I was collaring to you, Nick, Nick,

1029
00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:04,839

1030
00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:08,920
Speaker 9: it was exciting, you know, but but yeah, it was

1031
00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:09,440
Speaker 9: a terrible.

1032
00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:14,680
Speaker 1: But they couldn't stop Yeah, they couldn't stop Cam Newton.

1033
00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:17,520

1053
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:14,600

1054
00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:20,240
Speaker 9: H just want to throw out and U obscure former

1055
00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:21,080
Speaker 9: favorite player.

1056
00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:22,040
Speaker 10: Uh?

1057
00:52:22,719 --> 00:52:25,480
Speaker 9: It was Mike Renfro wide receiver.

1058
00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:26,120
Speaker 1: Ye.

1059
00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:31,440
Speaker 9: And it's funny, h yeah, yeah, because I remember one

1060
00:52:31,480 --> 00:52:34,400
Speaker 9: of my favorite players was Butch Johnson because of the

1061
00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:39,320
Speaker 9: California quake, and I remember coach Landry traded him after

1062
00:52:39,440 --> 00:52:42,439
Speaker 9: he did the California quake in the end zone, after

1063
00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:47,000
Speaker 9: Landry told him not to because the officials were we're

1064
00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:50,120
Speaker 9: calling penalties on that then. And then they traded him

1065
00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:53,960
Speaker 9: to Houston Oilers for Mike Renfro and I was like,

1066
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:55,439
Speaker 9: who on earth is this guy?

1067
00:52:55,560 --> 00:52:56,200
Speaker 10: Like, oh my.

1068
00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:59,600
Speaker 9: Gosh, And we got him and he caught like everything.

1069
00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:02,640
Speaker 9: He was great on the out route to the excellent

1070
00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:06,520
Speaker 9: yeah runner and he had the best feet.

1071
00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:10,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean he would be yeah, well, you know

1072
00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:12,799
Speaker 1: it's funny you say that. I mean there's people in

1073
00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:15,960
Speaker 1: Houston that still think he got both both feed and

1074
00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:18,080
Speaker 1: bounds for up. I think it was a seventy nine,

1075
00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:22,479
Speaker 1: seventy nine championship game against the Steelers where back corner

1076
00:53:22,520 --> 00:53:24,879
Speaker 1: of the end zone he caught it and he got

1077
00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:26,640
Speaker 1: both feet and they ruled him out of bounds and

1078
00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:29,000
Speaker 1: Steelers ended up winning go to the Super Bowl and

1079
00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:31,760
Speaker 1: won a title. But there's people in Houston that still

1080
00:53:31,800 --> 00:53:35,120
Speaker 1: cover them that think Mike Renfro definitely got his feet

1081
00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:38,040
Speaker 1: in bounds and should have beaten the Steelers there. But yeah,

1082
00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:40,400
Speaker 1: he was a good, good, solid player. Probably ran like

1083
00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:43,040
Speaker 1: a five to one forty or something like that, but

1084
00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:45,560
Speaker 1: he could catch the ball all right, Eric, appreciate it.
