Yeah. 0:02:20.960 --> 0:02:25.200 So Natalia Christine Knewton was born last night at eleven 0:02:25.400 --> 0:02:32.480 fifty nine, one minute before. Yeah. Wow, six pounds fifteen ounces, 0:02:32.560 --> 0:02:36.400 twenty two and a half inches. I mean I walked 0:02:36.440 --> 0:02:39.839 in the room this morning, man, and like she wow, 0:02:39.960 --> 0:02:42.480 bless a hard But anyway, man, thank y'all, guys, man, 0:02:42.600 --> 0:02:46.320 thank everybody out there.

No, no, no, no, no, just called me Nate. 0:02:49.240 --> 0:02:51.000 When that baby getting Like I told my son, don't 0:02:51.040 --> 0:02:54.120 worry about it. She gets about two years old and 0:02:54.280 --> 0:02:57.240 she can make up or whatever. But anyway, I got 0:02:57.639 --> 0:02:59.519 something to talk about. No, I got you know, I 0:02:59.560 --> 0:03:02.040 always out something. I know you do. Please let me 0:03:02.120 --> 0:03:06.080 get this out. We'll get back on your back again. 0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:08.000 It's the weight on my back. I'm about to put 0:03:08.080 --> 0:03:13.120 my backpack on. Put the backpack. And my only thing 0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:18.840 I have to say, Fellas is, especially when you go 0:03:18.960 --> 0:03:25.440 on the road Tennessee, control the ball thirty two minutes. 0:03:28.960 --> 0:03:33.959 That's all I have to say. They Yeah, that ain't it. 0:03:34.160 --> 0:03:36.120 Sometimes you just walk in and out of the hottle, 0:03:36.680 --> 0:03:41.320 don't rush, call a play that you believe in, waiting 0:03:41.400 --> 0:03:44.600 for its five seconds to click off the clock. Help 0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:47.320 if the defense is your strength, I'm beginning to believe 0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:52.200 with Jesse saying that's just a front the offense. The 0:03:52.400 --> 0:03:56.080 defense of your strength helped them out. But anyway, that's 0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:57.600 all I had to say, Go ahead on Jesse, Yeah, 0:03:57.640 --> 0:03:59.680 no doubt. And we're gonna take calls today. So if 0:03:59.720 --> 0:04:02.840 you're if you're at a pastor, you won't get me today. 0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:09.320 Won't get me today, don't get me today. But if 0:04:09.320 --> 0:04:11.680 you're gonna call in eight five five, I'm sorry eight 0:04:11.760 --> 0:04:13.920 eight eight eight five five two two nine seven eight 0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:19.080 eight eight five five two two nine seven. And you know, 0:04:19.240 --> 0:04:23.320 for this defense to to be what it needs to be, 0:04:24.279 --> 0:04:26.280 of course you're going and as I look at this 0:04:26.520 --> 0:04:28.680 Cowboys media guy, did you want this to Kurt? Well, 0:04:28.680 --> 0:04:31.600 you're part of this. It's a pr thing. And I 0:04:31.680 --> 0:04:33.400 look a part of this thing and it shows that 0:04:33.560 --> 0:04:42.720 it's Micah, Tray Vaughn, and Tank. Two out of the 0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:45.599 three of those people in that picture are dealing with something. 0:04:46.480 --> 0:04:51.400 I think Micah is dealing with something. And yesterday Tank, 0:04:51.440 --> 0:04:54.520 who has been the best defensive run player on that 0:04:54.640 --> 0:04:58.520 defensive line, he came out and said that he's dealing 0:04:58.640 --> 0:05:04.039 with both feat one which he's already had surgically repaired 0:05:04.240 --> 0:05:08.000 when he missed time last year, and a knee. He 0:05:08.080 --> 0:05:11.200 said he's gonna play. But how much does that concern 0:05:11.320 --> 0:05:14.120 you when you hear a guy come out publicly? And now, 0:05:14.320 --> 0:05:19.880 to me, it makes the tack. McKinley signing all gives 0:05:19.920 --> 0:05:21.520 me all information that I need that this is a 0:05:21.600 --> 0:05:24.200 possibility that a guy who was hurting, who who is 0:05:24.240 --> 0:05:26.880 dealing with some things, that he may go down. He 0:05:27.040 --> 0:05:29.159 may not finish that game. It may be a situation 0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:32.279 where he has to miss some time. So how worried 0:05:32.320 --> 0:05:35.680 about about you would take? Take Lawrence and these injuries 0:05:36.400 --> 0:05:39.560 and we got this game and then we turned right 0:05:39.640 --> 0:05:43.680 around and play four days later on things given? Is 0:05:43.760 --> 0:05:48.760 this something that concerns you for the intermediate I'm sorry 0:05:48.800 --> 0:05:53.800 for the immediate and for the future. Yeah, I think 0:05:53.839 --> 0:05:56.479 it's concerned, especially with the quick turnaround. I mean, are 0:05:56.520 --> 0:05:59.040 you gonna get him for both games? One game, no games? 0:05:59.279 --> 0:06:02.000 You know, he's a big part of the defensive line, 0:06:02.040 --> 0:06:05.120 not just from the run standpoint, but just as a 0:06:05.200 --> 0:06:09.360 leadership standpoint, and so yeah, I mean for a team 0:06:09.440 --> 0:06:11.320 that's saying they're going to do all the right things 0:06:11.360 --> 0:06:14.760 this week and and you know, turn it around or whatever, 0:06:14.880 --> 0:06:18.480 I mean, that's a guy game, can kind of count him. Yeah, Hey, yeah, 0:06:18.560 --> 0:06:21.599 he's been sturgy this year. Tank has been real sturgy 0:06:21.680 --> 0:06:25.320 this year. And uh, and uh we need him. Uh, 0:06:25.920 --> 0:06:27.960 if you have the spot, play him, do But if 0:06:28.040 --> 0:06:30.520 he but but if you see where he's beat up, don't, 0:06:30.560 --> 0:06:32.720 don't play him at all. I mean I think we 0:06:32.760 --> 0:06:36.160 should have enough depth, uh to uh to cover this 0:06:36.279 --> 0:06:39.839 game here. Man. Uh yeah, that's the thing. I mean, 0:06:39.839 --> 0:06:42.800 if he's that banged up, why play him? Why not? Yeah, 0:06:42.960 --> 0:06:47.680 I mean, let him rest. I mean, uh, this this 0:06:47.920 --> 0:06:50.200 is gonna be one hell of a game with him, 0:06:51.360 --> 0:06:54.120 and it may just be a tad more difficult without him. 0:06:54.800 --> 0:06:58.039 But you know, and it's been my battle cry all week, 0:06:58.200 --> 0:07:02.960 just do your job. Do your job, whether he's in there, 0:07:03.040 --> 0:07:07.239 or not do your job. So now that Harry begs 0:07:07.279 --> 0:07:12.040 the question, the Cowboys last year with Zeke Elliott didn't 0:07:12.040 --> 0:07:14.120 rest him when they probably should have rested him and 0:07:14.160 --> 0:07:15.960 probably could have rested him, and they didn't, and they 0:07:16.040 --> 0:07:17.560 kind of bit them in the butt later on down 0:07:17.600 --> 0:07:20.400 the line. You're now in this situation where you lose 0:07:20.440 --> 0:07:23.360 against Green Bay, who then went and lost last night 0:07:23.400 --> 0:07:25.760 to the Tennessee Titans. You talk about teams getting up 0:07:25.760 --> 0:07:29.520 for the Cowboys, but now you're faced with this three 0:07:29.600 --> 0:07:31.800 games in twelve days. You've already got one down, you'll 0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:34.560 play another one this Sunday, and then you're gonna play 0:07:34.640 --> 0:07:38.240 your NFC East Division opponent and the Giants on Thanksgiving. 0:07:39.360 --> 0:07:42.240 Do the Cowboys say, you know what, We know that 0:07:42.360 --> 0:07:44.320 you're hurt, we know that you're bang up, and I 0:07:44.440 --> 0:07:46.960 know you say Tank that you can go. I know 0:07:47.160 --> 0:07:49.600 you say that you want to play, But what is 0:07:49.640 --> 0:07:52.320 the most important part of this stretch? Do you play 0:07:52.400 --> 0:07:54.160 him for or you rest him for a game against 0:07:54.200 --> 0:07:58.680 Minnesota and then get him back for for the Giants. 0:07:58.800 --> 0:08:00.360 Or you say, you know we're gonna play to night, 0:08:00.720 --> 0:08:03.040 pray all works out, play you Thursday and then we 0:08:03.120 --> 0:08:05.520 have kind of a mini built in by because you 0:08:05.600 --> 0:08:07.720 won't play it. You know again to that next Sunday. 0:08:08.240 --> 0:08:12.360 What you think is the thinking that that's going, that's 0:08:12.400 --> 0:08:14.720 in the mind of what the front office and what 0:08:15.200 --> 0:08:21.640 my thing is this right here, and I started this 0:08:21.760 --> 0:08:25.280 two weeks ago because I believe it. Then in every 0:08:25.320 --> 0:08:29.640 game you lose is get worse. You started out tie 0:08:29.720 --> 0:08:34.320 for second at first, you fail the second, tied at second, 0:08:34.640 --> 0:08:38.080 Now you totally in third by yourself. They're not allowed 0:08:38.120 --> 0:08:40.520 to look back, but you gotta got a booster back 0:08:40.600 --> 0:08:45.160 there coming. They just got back young. They got fact young, 0:08:45.200 --> 0:08:49.200 because that makes them better. So you you gotta decide 0:08:49.280 --> 0:08:52.160 as a coaching staff, as a training staff and tank. 0:08:53.360 --> 0:08:59.199 It's every game now equally important because everyone you lose 0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:03.800 takes you one step from not making the not sniffing 0:09:03.840 --> 0:09:06.480 the playoffs. That's a tricky thing because I think that 0:09:06.760 --> 0:09:09.480 Eagles are playing the Colts, right, aren't it Aren't that good? 0:09:09.559 --> 0:09:14.160 The Giants, I think are playing the Lions, aren't that good. 0:09:14.400 --> 0:09:19.240 I think the Commanders are playing um Houston. So I mean, 0:09:19.320 --> 0:09:22.640 there's are all pretty easily winnable games, you'd think, whereas 0:09:23.040 --> 0:09:25.719 Cowboys are facing you at Minnesota. So it's a it's 0:09:25.720 --> 0:09:27.880 a tough balance because you don't want to fall further behind. 0:09:28.120 --> 0:09:29.880 But but you don't want to lose the player. Yeah, 0:09:29.880 --> 0:09:31.760 you don't want to lose the player. I believe this 0:09:31.960 --> 0:09:36.559 right here, Tank Tank houses to go to Jim Mara 0:09:37.280 --> 0:09:40.760 and and and Brett Brown and sit down and say, hey, man, 0:09:41.679 --> 0:09:44.079 what what what? What's truely is my options here? And 0:09:44.160 --> 0:09:45.959 then one thing I like about Jim Brown let me 0:09:46.000 --> 0:09:50.160 exhume me. I'm putting them together, Jim Jim Marrow. Wish 0:09:50.200 --> 0:09:53.640 you was Jim Brown. Yeah, and uh, and and Brett 0:09:54.160 --> 0:09:58.320 is they're gonna square up which they're gonna They're gonna 0:09:58.360 --> 0:10:01.280 tell you where where it's sitting, how it is, and 0:10:01.400 --> 0:10:05.040 then make a decisions. Ain't and And that's that's how 0:10:05.080 --> 0:10:12.800 I would look at it, Uh, because you know I don't. 0:10:12.920 --> 0:10:15.560 You know, we know none of us by no game 0:10:15.720 --> 0:10:17.520 is this game is more important than the other game, 0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:25.080 but few less unless unless Philadelphia fall off the bridge, 0:10:25.400 --> 0:10:28.560 unless some freight train hit in New York. This thing 0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:31.960 ain't turning out good for us. It's not turning out good. 0:10:32.360 --> 0:10:35.640 And that's just in the East. You know we all 0:10:35.800 --> 0:10:38.880 have found you know, I hear I listen to every show. Yeah, 0:10:39.440 --> 0:10:42.559 I just don't think Minnesota as good as they think 0:10:42.640 --> 0:10:46.440 there is. And I'm saying to myself, your coaches said 0:10:46.920 --> 0:10:48.880 y'all lost the game, that y'all should have found a 0:10:48.920 --> 0:10:52.640 way to win. Guess we just won the game and 0:10:52.760 --> 0:10:54.600 found a way to win a game this past week. 0:10:54.679 --> 0:10:59.400 It's the top team. Yeah, So Jesse, you posed the 0:10:59.520 --> 0:11:05.240 question now, sir with your army green on and your yes. 0:11:08.280 --> 0:11:12.360 That's why I'm gonna switch the question. The Cowboys get 0:11:12.440 --> 0:11:15.280 his ze Elliott back. He's on pace to play this week. 0:11:15.400 --> 0:11:19.080 Jerry has said it uh and his weekly UM radio interview, 0:11:19.160 --> 0:11:21.839 and Zeke has talked about it. But Zack Martin came 0:11:21.880 --> 0:11:25.280 out and and you know, when there's certain people, there 0:11:25.280 --> 0:11:27.280 are certain players on teams, and we've all been a 0:11:27.360 --> 0:11:29.439 part of them that just talk to talk, and you 0:11:29.520 --> 0:11:31.920 know there's something that that talking and that's the that's 0:11:31.960 --> 0:11:35.360 their deal, right right right. You had you know, Michael Irvin, right, Mike, 0:11:35.480 --> 0:11:38.240 Mike gonna talk, Charles gonna talk, right, you know, But 0:11:38.360 --> 0:11:41.480 then it was those certain people that when they spoke, 0:11:42.200 --> 0:11:46.360 it kind of was like, oh, oh when they speak, yea, 0:11:46.520 --> 0:11:48.719 And not only do when they speak it's like, this 0:11:48.800 --> 0:11:51.719 ain't just somebody speaking who ain't got no game. So 0:11:51.920 --> 0:11:53.800 Zack Martin comes out, and I think he's the guy 0:11:53.880 --> 0:11:55.839 for the Cowboys that when he comes out and speak, 0:11:55.840 --> 0:11:59.320 it's like, Oh, hold on, y'all, let's let's Zack speaking. 0:11:59.800 --> 0:12:02.079 Let's listening to what he got to say. And he 0:12:02.160 --> 0:12:05.359 said that he hoped that the team's identity is toughness, 0:12:06.559 --> 0:12:09.080 that this football team, that this team and we always 0:12:09.080 --> 0:12:12.000 asked this question in the preseason, in training camp and 0:12:12.040 --> 0:12:14.760 in the beginning of the year, what is your identity? 0:12:15.480 --> 0:12:18.520 And Zach Martin has come out and he says, I hope, 0:12:18.920 --> 0:12:23.280 I hope that this. I hope, I hope that this 0:12:23.520 --> 0:12:28.120 team's identity is toughness. And he thinks with the return 0:12:28.320 --> 0:12:32.439 of Ezekiel Elliott in the backfield that they can kind 0:12:32.480 --> 0:12:34.520 of get back to that and that'll that'll help out. 0:12:35.200 --> 0:12:37.040 And Kurt you you hit on to where I was going. 0:12:37.160 --> 0:12:43.480 He said, I hope not. We are not definitively this 0:12:43.679 --> 0:12:45.360 is what we do, this is how we get down. 0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:51.520 But I hope the running game didn't fall off with 0:12:51.720 --> 0:12:56.600 Zeke not in the lineup. It was moving right ahead 0:12:57.000 --> 0:12:59.559 over one hundred yards five point plus yards of carry. 0:12:59.800 --> 0:13:03.880 It was functioning and flowing pretty smoothly. But does zeke 0:13:04.040 --> 0:13:07.000 me that much to the team's mental part of Okay, 0:13:07.120 --> 0:13:09.760 he's back, now we can be tough? Is that is 0:13:09.800 --> 0:13:12.320 that isn't an approach that to think this team is taking. 0:13:13.280 --> 0:13:15.559 I would hope not. I would hope they go out 0:13:15.600 --> 0:13:18.760 there and be tough no matter what. Or like we 0:13:18.920 --> 0:13:21.839 talked to something yesterday about did the defense take a 0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:24.280 breather once Dad came back thinking they didn't have to 0:13:24.640 --> 0:13:27.400 hold guys under twenty? But I don't know. You guys 0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:29.760 were players. Did you have a feeling like when a 0:13:29.800 --> 0:13:31.920 guy was like if Michael Rman was out of the 0:13:31.960 --> 0:13:34.280 lineup and he came back in or Dez Brian was 0:13:34.280 --> 0:13:36.840 out of the line he did you did it provide 0:13:36.840 --> 0:13:40.199 a mental uplift to the whole team? For me? Yes, 0:13:41.640 --> 0:13:44.559 And I'll give you a prime example without him it 0:13:44.640 --> 0:13:48.599 we was owing two. With him, we started winning and 0:13:48.840 --> 0:13:51.319 and and we were tough, we were ready, and we 0:13:51.440 --> 0:14:00.320 were physical and without him, Yeah, the rug show give 0:14:00.360 --> 0:14:12.120 you and see it's hard to explain with loving guys 0:14:12.160 --> 0:14:14.520 on east side of the ball, who is that guy? 0:14:15.360 --> 0:14:18.839 And I just got so many examples of We were 0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:24.280 a physical team one year, but when Eric Williams came, 0:14:24.960 --> 0:14:31.640 we turned into something else. We were feared because Eric 0:14:31.800 --> 0:14:36.000 was gonna set the temple and uh, and we were feared. 0:14:36.120 --> 0:14:39.800 Man and one guy. If you believe in your heart 0:14:39.880 --> 0:14:43.200 that you got that guy, and it gives and it 0:14:43.280 --> 0:14:45.160 gives you that nudge in the back that just go 0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:48.000 a little bit harder. So be it, man, So bid 0:14:48.560 --> 0:14:53.120 I just the Cowboys are in a situation. This is 0:14:53.160 --> 0:14:56.600 a unique situation. You got three teams. The last time 0:14:57.800 --> 0:15:00.120 I had to deal with that, I was playing. Well, 0:15:00.200 --> 0:15:03.720 you had three teams in the same division, got a 0:15:03.840 --> 0:15:08.440 chance to make the playoffs. Yeah, did you you guys? 0:15:08.600 --> 0:15:10.600 Did you all have a player kind of like Marian 0:15:10.640 --> 0:15:16.560 Barber maybe or somebody like that. I think not so much. 0:15:16.880 --> 0:15:20.040 I would say not offensively. It was, you know, playing 0:15:20.080 --> 0:15:23.200 with DeMarcus Ware whenever he was in the lineup or 0:15:23.280 --> 0:15:25.600 not in the lineup that I think that that mattered, 0:15:26.920 --> 0:15:30.120 That mattered something. But well, we'll see what happens. We'll 0:15:30.120 --> 0:15:32.840 see what happens. Jack Martin said, he hopes Sean. I 0:15:32.920 --> 0:15:37.360 hope was Sean. I mean, I didn't the whole team, 0:15:37.440 --> 0:15:40.000 but it's a fact that I defense. It did. It did, 0:15:40.040 --> 0:15:42.000 absolutely all right. We'll take a break. When we come back, 0:15:42.080 --> 0:15:44.200 we'll open up the phone lines eight eight eight eight 0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:47.280 five two two nine seven eight eight.

Uh, we're gonna 0:18:37.800 --> 0:18:39.920 give our picks. We're gonna give our keys to the 0:18:40.040 --> 0:18:42.840 games in our third segment. But right now we're gonna 0:18:42.880 --> 0:18:45.320 open up our phone lines. We want to hear from you. 0:18:45.880 --> 0:18:48.920 We're not talking about green Bay. No, even though you 0:18:49.000 --> 0:18:51.920 might bring up a situation where Green Bay lost last 0:18:52.080 --> 0:18:58.160 night to the Tennessee Titans. I'm talking about our game. 0:18:58.280 --> 0:19:02.639 I'm talking about our game, our game. But the Cowboys 0:19:02.760 --> 0:19:05.440 are Um, this is a big game, this, this is 0:19:05.520 --> 0:19:08.000 a big to me, this is a very big game. 0:19:08.600 --> 0:19:12.720 Huge man, this is huge back to back. This gonna 0:19:12.720 --> 0:19:16.159 have a snowball effect. And you know, funny status, the 0:19:16.240 --> 0:19:19.200 Cowboys have never given up two back to back two 0:19:19.320 --> 0:19:23.080 hundred yard rushers until the past two games. And this 0:19:23.160 --> 0:19:25.720 seems like, I don't know what it is. It seems 0:19:25.760 --> 0:19:29.800 like when the Cowboys, it's it's like in the past, 0:19:29.920 --> 0:19:32.080 we've always dealt with that. You know, whatever the team 0:19:32.920 --> 0:19:36.960 is ailing or needs to find their rhythm, they've seen 0:19:37.000 --> 0:19:39.440 to come to the Cowboys and find the rhythm. And 0:19:39.560 --> 0:19:43.159 it's like, now we're suffering and we're having trouble stopping 0:19:43.240 --> 0:19:46.400 the run. And literally we play a good run team 0:19:46.520 --> 0:19:49.080 last week, a really good run team this week, and 0:19:49.200 --> 0:19:52.040 a really good run team on Thursday. And it's like 0:19:52.200 --> 0:19:55.320 every time we're trying to find who we are, our 0:19:55.400 --> 0:19:58.359 deficiencies show up in a major way. And then follow 0:19:58.440 --> 0:20:00.520 by that we find teams that we have to play 0:20:00.560 --> 0:20:02.879 on our schedule who are really good at what we 0:20:02.960 --> 0:20:05.639 are really bad at. You know, there's another example of 0:20:05.720 --> 0:20:07.879 being able to overcome adversity, and this is this is 0:20:08.320 --> 0:20:10.520 you know, I'm sure Troy Vincent was looking at our 0:20:10.560 --> 0:20:12.320 schedule was like, yo, they're gonna have trouble in the 0:20:12.440 --> 0:20:15.080 run game. So we're gonna schedule all these good running teams. 0:20:15.960 --> 0:20:18.200 I know Troy was sitting back there doing that this offseason. 0:20:18.240 --> 0:20:20.520 But let's go to the phones and see what we got, Chris. 0:20:20.600 --> 0:20:24.680 Who we got in the phones? We've got James in 0:20:24.760 --> 0:20:27.879 New York, James and in YC. I hope you're not 0:20:27.960 --> 0:20:29.840 like in western New York. All that snow is that 0:20:31.119 --> 0:20:33.000 now we're a little island right now. So we're gone over. 0:20:33.119 --> 0:20:37.879 It's just a little cold. Okay, gotcha. What's going on? Brother? Yeah? So, 0:20:38.240 --> 0:20:40.040 um yeah, I just wanted to kind of chime it out. 0:20:40.080 --> 0:20:41.520 You know, I was kind of thinking about the game, 0:20:42.119 --> 0:20:43.760 you know, as far as a whole, and obviously it's 0:20:43.760 --> 0:20:46.119 a big game, but you know, I look at you know, 0:20:46.280 --> 0:20:48.359 Dak Prescott. I mean, you know, if you look at 0:20:48.440 --> 0:20:50.040 his career, he gets a lot of the blame a lot, 0:20:50.320 --> 0:20:54.680 but also which I'm fairly um, you know, I think 0:20:55.119 --> 0:20:59.000 thrown in this direction. But ever since, you know, after 0:20:59.040 --> 0:21:00.679 the injury, they paid him in anyway, right, and you're 0:21:00.720 --> 0:21:03.080 paying this guy to make some big time plays. And 0:21:03.200 --> 0:21:05.600 when I think of games like this game coming up, 0:21:05.640 --> 0:21:09.000 you need him to you know, have that type of 0:21:09.040 --> 0:21:10.840 game that he can carry and kind of cure someone 0:21:10.960 --> 0:21:13.040 else that's going on, especially on defense in the run game. 0:21:13.359 --> 0:21:15.159 And I'm just waiting for his team to unleash him 0:21:15.160 --> 0:21:17.440 and not just throwing the ball, but running the ball. 0:21:17.800 --> 0:21:19.639 I mean, you already paid him, and the injury has 0:21:19.640 --> 0:21:22.639 got to be like, hey, what's what's the difference? You know, 0:21:23.119 --> 0:21:25.680 coming up the injury, he's not ready to go, and really, 0:21:26.240 --> 0:21:27.760 you know, why did you why did you pay him 0:21:27.760 --> 0:21:30.480 all that money to be like that? Josh Shallon, Pat 0:21:30.560 --> 0:21:32.879 Mahomes high quarterbackers. He's getting paid like those guys, but 0:21:33.080 --> 0:21:34.840 he does not making them same big plays like him. 0:21:35.760 --> 0:21:38.600 Appreciate the call man, Thank you so much. Anyone want 0:21:38.600 --> 0:21:41.920 to take a shot of this first quick where we 0:21:41.920 --> 0:21:44.800 can get to him, let's go. I'll I'll just say this, Um. 0:21:45.320 --> 0:21:47.880 You know, when they paid Dak Prescott, it was paying 0:21:47.920 --> 0:21:50.000 on what the market has said to pay him, right 0:21:50.040 --> 0:21:51.920 and and in no agent was gonna allow you to 0:21:51.960 --> 0:21:55.000 pay his top quarterback less than that. You look at 0:21:55.040 --> 0:21:57.639 the quarterbacks now, he's he's kind of like at the 0:21:57.800 --> 0:21:59.760 bottom of the pack of the really good quarterbacks and 0:21:59.800 --> 0:22:04.360 what they're getting paid. But you know, for Dak it's 0:22:04.400 --> 0:22:06.680 it's it's more so of a mental thing. I think 0:22:07.240 --> 0:22:09.760 it's not all physical. I think mentally he doesn't want 0:22:09.800 --> 0:22:14.040 to be that runner um, you know anymore. And again 0:22:14.200 --> 0:22:17.240 you want to compare him to Josh Allen and Pat Mahomes, 0:22:17.320 --> 0:22:19.200 that's a level that he's not at. He'll never be 0:22:19.320 --> 0:22:22.720 those guys. He'll never be Patrick Mahomes. He'll never be uh, 0:22:23.520 --> 0:22:26.359 Josh Allen. That's that that that that elite category of 0:22:26.440 --> 0:22:28.480 quarterbacking that we talk about. And I said that Dak 0:22:28.600 --> 0:22:32.120 is in that second tier. So and for for the quarterback, 0:22:32.560 --> 0:22:35.439 at the end of the day, they get all the glory, 0:22:35.920 --> 0:22:38.680 they get all the girls, they get all the endorsements, 0:22:38.920 --> 0:22:41.320 they get all of the front they get everything. So 0:22:41.880 --> 0:22:43.720 what comes with that, I said to the other day. 0:22:43.960 --> 0:22:45.840 Heavy is the head that wears a crown. So when 0:22:45.840 --> 0:22:48.080 you have the started quarterback of the franchise, you're on 0:22:48.160 --> 0:22:50.359 all the tickets, you get to go all the events, 0:22:50.480 --> 0:22:52.920 you're on all the commercials. So you have to you 0:22:53.040 --> 0:22:54.600 have to hold some of that weight as well. You 0:22:54.720 --> 0:22:57.000 have to hold the weight when things aren't going well 0:22:57.040 --> 0:22:59.600 because in this league they look to quarterbacks to kind 0:22:59.600 --> 0:23:02.959 of wreck to five and fix whether it's offensively or defensively. 0:23:03.240 --> 0:23:05.000 They look for you to find a way to do 0:23:05.119 --> 0:23:07.320 it so that that's no different in Green Bay, it's 0:23:07.320 --> 0:23:09.840 no different in Buffalo, it's no different end in Kansas City, 0:23:10.000 --> 0:23:11.919 any of those other places. It's all going to come 0:23:11.960 --> 0:23:14.520 back to the quarterback because you get the biggest paycheck, 0:23:14.800 --> 0:23:16.720 you get the most credit when things go right, so 0:23:17.560 --> 0:23:19.560 inevitably you're gonna take some of that blame when things 0:23:19.640 --> 0:23:21.359 going wrong. Did you see that article this morning in 0:23:21.400 --> 0:23:24.920 the Morning News? David Moore did? I didn't. Yeah, he's 0:23:25.040 --> 0:23:28.560 in the last last year, and that overtime win at 0:23:28.600 --> 0:23:32.640 the Patriots was like he called that deck's last kind 0:23:32.680 --> 0:23:36.280
