1
00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:05,120
Speaker 1: The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com

2
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:06,720
Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.

3
00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 2: Cowboys This these Cowboys storylines with Nick Eatman.

4
00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 3: What is up at this time for Cowboys storyline? It's

5
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 3: a Thursday here, I'm Nick Eatman, and we are ready

6
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 3: to go for the storylines, getting closer and closer Cowboys

7
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 3: and Giants at the Meadowlands on Sunday night. We've got

8
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 3: a new feature on the website this year, Dallascowboys dot

9
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,199
Speaker 3: Com called the Tenspot. It's just a collection of a

10
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,840
Speaker 3: lot of top tens. We've already started it this week.

11
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:44,919
Speaker 3: In today's Top ten is a rank them on the

12
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 3: best Cowboy Giants opener games in series history. And I

13
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 3: think the Giants is the only team you could really

14
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 3: do that with because obviously the Cowboys and Giants play

15
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 3: so many of these Week one games, so a lot

16
00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:00,319
Speaker 3: of fun memories there. Check that out and every day

17
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 3: there's a different Top ten. There was X factors for

18
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 3: the game. There's gonna be some game breakers, there's gonna

19
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 3: be big facts, all that kind of cool stuff. All right,

20
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,399
Speaker 3: let's hit the storylines before we go to the phone lines.

21
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:13,839
Speaker 3: I could already hear it ringing over there, which is great.

22
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 3: Injuries is the big deal. Tyler Smith, he was out

23
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:20,960
Speaker 3: of practice. They had they moved practice a little bit earlier.

24
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 3: Today he's out there working just with the strength coaches

25
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 3: and the athletic trainers, trying to rehab that hamstring injury.

26
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 3: Mike McCarthy said he believes that if Tyler Smith is

27
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 3: able to do something at least by Saturday, that they're

28
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 3: going to give him a chance to play. This is

29
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 3: probably gonna be a game time decision. Just gut feeling

30
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 3: for me, just the way he was kind of moving.

31
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 3: At first, I was thinking maybe not.

32
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 4: But.

33
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 3: Because of the nature of the position and where he

34
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 3: is and he's not going to be running forty yard

35
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 3: dashes hopefully, I think that I think he has a

36
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 3: chance to play. Tyler Smith. The other guys, Donovan Wilson

37
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 3: did not practice today. He's not going to practice with

38
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 3: the CAF strains. Probably not gonna happen for him. And

39
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 3: then Sam Williams did some stuff. He's working with the

40
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 3: rehab group on a toe injury. Did a little bit

41
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 3: more than we thought he was going to do. So

42
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 3: it's the arrows trending up. Maybe for Sam Williams to play.

43
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,639
Speaker 3: And I still think Tyler Smith has a shot. And

44
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:23,800
Speaker 3: Jordan Lewis was a full participant in practice yesterday. I

45
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 3: don't know if they'll they'll throw him out there for

46
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,080
Speaker 3: this game, but at least he is practicing to the

47
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 3: point where he's probably gonna play. If not this week,

48
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,839
Speaker 3: I would say next week, all right, eight eight eight

49
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 3: eight five five two two ninety seven. If you're able

50
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 3: to watch right now, you can see we've added that

51
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 3: on the screen, which is great because I forget the

52
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 3: number sometimes was right there, and the text line as well.

53
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 3: Eight one seven two nine zero three two nine to eight.

54
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 3: Give us a call, give us a text, whatever you want.

55
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 3: But we're gonna start with the phone lines. We're going

56
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:56,639
Speaker 3: with Joe and Stanford. What's up man?

57
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 5: Hey, good morning, brother, good morning.

58
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 6: And so a couple of things. First, I was thinking

59
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 6: about how we were gonna deal with Waller the tight end.

60
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 6: Uh So, I think you know what we did with

61
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 6: those big receivers in Tampa and the playoff game with Israel,

62
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 6: I think I think there's probably a good chance that's

63
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:23,799
Speaker 6: what our plan is going to be with Waller. That's

64
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 6: just the observation. I think we probably will see this Sunday.

65
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 6: And I had another thing I was thinking about, So,

66
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 6: why do you think we kept are? Are we? We

67
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 6: went along on running back in wide receiver, we kept

68
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 6: Von and the little guy, the return guy the wide receiver. Yeah,

69
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 6: so you do you think we're gonna have both of

70
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 6: those guys active every week? I don't see. I don't

71
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 6: see enough touches for both of those guys. And I

72
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 6: think that Vond could do.

73
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 5: Stuff.

74
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 6: So I think at some point this year we're gonna

75
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 6: have to figure out who's gonna actually get more touches

76
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 6: on offense, because I don't think that there's enough room

77
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 6: on the active roster for us to keep that many

78
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 6: running backs and that many receivers, especially if we're gonna

79
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 6: use the kid from North Dakota for special teams.

80
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I appreciate the call. Good good stuff there for sure.

81
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:30,040
Speaker 3: Let me let's start with the first part on tight end.

82
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 3: I do think, you know Waller's that's gonna be a

83
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 3: matchup to watch because the Giants, you know, they had

84
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,720
Speaker 3: Evan Ingram back in the day. Now they've got Waller

85
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 3: and and and he's a better I think he's a

86
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,559
Speaker 3: better tied end, and he's more improven when he's healthy.

87
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 3: He's been banged up some, but but yeah, whether it's macwamu,

88
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 3: whether it's Marquise Bell, you know, and even jay Ron Curse,

89
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 3: I mean those guys because you know, without Donovan Wilson,

90
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:58,919
Speaker 3: I think Kurs will play a little bit more safety,

91
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 3: But the Cowboys have some athletic safeties that will be

92
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 3: able to play in this game and go, you know,

93
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 3: go against the tight end. The thing about mcwamu is

94
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 3: he said, remember when he was drafted, he said he's

95
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 3: gonna be the best cornerback in the draft, and they said,

96
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 3: well that's cool, but we're moving you to safety, and

97
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 3: he's like, okay, well then I'll be the best safety.

98
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 3: He's got confidence, but he's got coverage skills. You know,

99
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 3: he was the opposite corner to j. C. Horn at

100
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 3: South Carolina, So I think I think mcwamu has some

101
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 3: coverage skills going up against the tight ends probably a

102
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,040
Speaker 3: good matchup. So I like that. I like where you're

103
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 3: thinking there, Vaughn and Turpin. Me personally, I've said this

104
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 3: a thousand times in the offseason since the forty nine

105
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 3: Ers lost that I think that they just didn't have

106
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 3: enough playmakers. So now you know you got playmakers. And

107
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 3: if they're going to use Turpin on offense, then yeah,

108
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 3: I think I think you've got some touches. I saw

109
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,599
Speaker 3: some things at training camp that some packages where it

110
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 3: looks like they both were out there doing the things

111
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 3: on offense. So I think they're going to try to

112
00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 3: utilize these guys in space. You know, they're gonna they're

113
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 3: going to do the whole width of the field. They're

114
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 3: going to get these little guys out there and give

115
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 3: them the ball. I think there are they are going

116
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 3: to find ways to have some some touches. And Turpin

117
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 3: was a threat. He didn't always break the long, you know,

118
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:14,919
Speaker 3: punt return, kick return, but what he showed in that

119
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 3: preseason game scared teams enough to they didn't always kick

120
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 3: at him. He was a threat. Let's see if he

121
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 3: continues to be that way. And I don't know if

122
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 3: Deuce Vaughn's ready to be that kind of guy yet.

123
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 3: I you know, I think for now, I think you

124
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 3: can get away with playing both of them out there.

125
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 3: All right, let's go back to the phone lines again.

126
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 3: Tim in Grapevine, Tim what's up, Nick? Good morning, good morning?

127
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 5: All right?

128
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:38,160
Speaker 6: Football?

129
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 7: Hey, football season is upawn us.

130
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 8: It's the weather.

131
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 7: The weather is finally showing signs of cooling off. Really

132
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 7: so glory glory, hell?

133
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 9: I think so?

134
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 7: I think this next week?

135
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 3: Next week, Okay, I got it. Next week, I went

136
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,679
Speaker 3: out to practice. I can still feel sweat now, okay,

137
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 3: got it all right? Next week though, it's it's coming.

138
00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 7: It's fair.

139
00:06:58,120 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 4: Okay.

140
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 7: So two questions. Number One, who would win in a

141
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 7: hypothetical the two thousand and seven Cowboys or this year's team?

142
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:11,640
Speaker 7: And why? And then my second question for you, and

143
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 7: then I'll hang up. My second question is do you

144
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 7: think Sunday Night against the Giants is the key to victory?

145
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 7: Is it as simple as shutting down Saquon Barkley.

146
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 3: I'm gonna before you hang up. I'm gonna because I

147
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 3: always say this, It's not just it's not just my show.

148
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 3: This is a fan show. What's your Well, who are

149
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 3: you taking two thousand and seven versus twenty three? I

150
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 3: already know my answer, So who are you picking?

151
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 7: I'm taking two thousand and seven Cowboys regular season the playoffs,

152
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 7: though obviously you know what happened with Patrick Creighton dropping

153
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 7: that ball. The reason why I'm taking two thousand and seven.

154
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 7: I just think Trell Owens against I mean, I like

155
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 7: our defensive backs this year, but t O was t O.

156
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 7: I mean, he's a Hall of Famer for a reason.

157
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 7: Jason Witten Hall of Famer. And then DeMarcus Ware was,

158
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 7: I mean, he as a monster that year and he

159
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 7: was such a young pup. This year's team, I mean,

160
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 7: obviously they're not second to anyone. I think that's this

161
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 7: This year's team is the best team I've seen Sinzo seven.

162
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 7: But I got to take Romo in the seven team.

163
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I'm with you there. Thanks for the call.

164
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,119
Speaker 3: I'm going to go with two thousand and seven as well.

165
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 3: I think it's the best football team that I've covered

166
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 3: since I've been with the team. Now this is my

167
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 3: twenty fifth year, and I will put this team, you know,

168
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 3: ahead of any of the others. It had thirteen Pro Bowlers,

169
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 3: but they were you know, it was it was a

170
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 3: legit thirteen. I mean every across the line, everywhere you go.

171
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,559
Speaker 3: I mean, it wasn't just de Ware. Greg Ellis was

172
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 3: the comeback player of the Year that year, coming off

173
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,680
Speaker 3: of injury, had a lot of sacks. He had Hamlin.

174
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,839
Speaker 3: In the backfield, you had Terrence Newman. I mean, you

175
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 3: had the offensive line had three guys. He had two

176
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 3: running backs that were good, Julius Jones and Marian Barber

177
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 3: who made the Pro Bowl. If TiO doesn't get hurt

178
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 3: in that Panthers game late in the season, that changes everything.

179
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 3: So I think that I think that's the best football

180
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 3: team that I've covered, and that would you know, from

181
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,199
Speaker 3: top to bottom, so good Romo. That was his first

182
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 3: year of a starter he had at Roland. I really

183
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 3: love that that team. We'll see what this one does

184
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 3: as well. You know, a little bit more question marks

185
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 3: I think on the roster running back, even though I

186
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 3: think they're gonna be fine, just there's a little bit

187
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 3: more question marks there. Uh key to victory. Yeah, I

188
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 3: think anytime you shut down the team's best player, particularly

189
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 3: at running back, it changes everything. Can they can they

190
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,680
Speaker 3: shut shut him down? That's the big question. But but yeah,

191
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 3: stopping Barkley making him a non factor the best that

192
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,320
Speaker 3: you possibly can and just makes you know, make sure

193
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 3: you limit the chunk plays. That's I think gonna be

194
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 3: the biggest thing going on right there is just to

195
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:44,720
Speaker 3: limit him from from going off and making big plays.

196
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 3: All right, let's go to the text line. I got

197
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 3: some some text messages coming in here speaking of of

198
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 3: Tony Pollard. I had one from let's see, it was

199
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 3: from Daniel in Altoona, Pennsylvania.

200
00:09:58,920 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 4: Uh.

201
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 3: He was talking about fantasy football. He said he went

202
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,679
Speaker 3: with his gut and drafted Tony Pollard instead of b

203
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:04,560
Speaker 3: John Robinson.

204
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 10: Uh.

205
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 3: And and he's just he's just feeling like, you know,

206
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 3: please reassure this cowboy fan that I did the right thing.

207
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 3: And we're making the case that TP is gonna have

208
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:17,200
Speaker 3: it unbelievably amazing season. You know, I didn't do that.

209
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 3: And in my fantasy I picked I picked Barkley actually

210
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 3: over over TP, which is fine. I mean, you know,

211
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 3: because I have I do things a little differently, you know,

212
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 3: like I pick Eagles. I picked Giants if if they

213
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 3: if they do poorly for me, well I lose fantasy.

214
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 3: But maybe that helps the big picture. But I always

215
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 3: I'm always hedging the bet there. I do think Tony

216
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 3: Poller is gonna have a good season, though, I really do.

217
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 3: I think he's gonna catch the ball. My only concern

218
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 3: is just are they gonna give him the ball and

219
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 3: third and one at the one. That's you know, that's

220
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 3: what I want to know. Is they're gonna do that

221
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,400
Speaker 3: or is that gonna take some of these touches around

222
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 3: the goal line. But as long as he's gonna find

223
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 3: the end zone and and and make some plays, he's

224
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 3: gonna get catches. I think he's gonna be fine for you.

225
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:58,680
Speaker 3: And and the Falcons are such a wild card. Who

226
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 3: knows about rookie running backs. I think I think you

227
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,680
Speaker 3: probably made the right choice there, especially that's this is

228
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,840
Speaker 3: your team, this is who you want to win. Then yeah,

229
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:08,959
Speaker 3: I mean I'm all about it right there. All right,

230
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 3: let's go back to the text line. Uh, we've got

231
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 3: this one from the FI from a Joe in Montrose, Pennsylvania.

232
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 3: Got a couple of Pennsylvania you know, he said, how

233
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 3: do you how do you think Tyron will hold up

234
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:25,079
Speaker 3: in pass protection against the speed rushers? You know, if

235
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 3: he can get his hands on him, he's still Tyron Smith.

236
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 3: I mean that's that's the key for him, is still

237
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 3: being able to you know, he's got to move the feet.

238
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 3: I mean, we're not hearing anything out of Tyrant. That's

239
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:39,200
Speaker 3: a good thing knock on wood. You know, we didn't

240
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 3: expect Tyler Smith to be the one banged up this week.

241
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 3: But I still feel like Tyler is going to be

242
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 3: out there, and I think that that certainly will help

243
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,680
Speaker 3: Tyron and vice versa there at left tackle. But yeah,

244
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,599
Speaker 3: the Giants have some speed rushers for sure, Tipodau is

245
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 3: one of them, and and you know, he's he's probably

246
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 3: ready to to make that big leap in his career.

247
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,840
Speaker 3: But I still will feel like when when he's playing

248
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 3: left tackle, Tyler's Tyron Smith at left tackle, I still

249
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 3: feel like, uh, he's he can be one of the best. Uh,

250
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 3: he's you know, once he's healthy, he's feeling good and

251
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:16,079
Speaker 3: he's got some strength that that it doesn't go away. Okay,

252
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,840
Speaker 3: it's turned into grown man strength at this point because he,

253
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 3: uh he's a little bit older in his career, but

254
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:26,680
Speaker 3: he still is a very very good technique wise, strength wise,

255
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 3: and I still think he can be a really good

256
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:34,199
Speaker 3: left tackle certainly when he when he you know, can

257
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 3: get his hands on him and get these guys in check,

258
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,679
Speaker 3: all right, eight eight eight eight five five two two

259
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,200
Speaker 3: ninety seven. That is the phone line you can text

260
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:45,080
Speaker 3: us at eight one seven, two nine zero three two

261
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 3: nine to eight, got one from Noah in Seattle, and

262
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 3: he says, with Nick Bosa's new deal with the forty

263
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 3: nine ers done, does Parsons become easier? Bosa? But five years,

264
00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 3: one hundred and seventy million, thirty four million a year, Okay, easier? No,

265
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 3: it's not. It's not going to be easier. I mean,

266
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 3: it sets the bar, but I mean, I don't know

267
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 3: if that makes it easier or not. You still got

268
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,439
Speaker 3: to you gotta get a contract for that. And it's

269
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 3: not so much what the forty nine ers have to

270
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 3: think about that. What the forty nine ers are able

271
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 3: to do their quarterbacks making six hundred thousand dollars right now,

272
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:26,559
Speaker 3: you know, because he that's that's where they that's where

273
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 3: they stand with with Purty and so you can you

274
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,960
Speaker 3: can do the Cowboys quarterbacks not making that and he

275
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 3: won't make that even next year. So they have they have,

276
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 3: you know, everyone's got their their issues. But yeah, this

277
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 3: kind of sets the bar, and this is what MICA's

278
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 3: agent is probably going to be looking at and going

279
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 3: over that. That's just natural to to do that. But

280
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 3: I don't think it's gonna be easy to get him in. Yes,

281
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,320
Speaker 3: it's going to be now we kind of know where

282
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 3: where we're looking at, where the floor is, and uh

283
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 3: that that's not always going to be fun. So they

284
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 3: you know, they still have CD to get done, Dak,

285
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 3: we'll probably be done as well. So it's never gonna

286
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 3: be easy to get that kind of contract into your

287
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 3: salary cap. But yeah, I think you do kind of

288
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 3: know what's going on here. All right, we've got Lewis

289
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,559
Speaker 3: in Texas on the line, going back to the phone lines, Lewis,

290
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:16,320
Speaker 3: what's up?

291
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:17,719
Speaker 10: Hey? Nick?

292
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:19,560
Speaker 11: First of all, let me take congratulations on the show.

293
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 11: Have been watching a long time.

294
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 7: Nobody deserves me.

295
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:23,960
Speaker 3: I appreciate that, Thank you so much.

296
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 11: My question is this, and we've talked about it for

297
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 11: a while, the offensive line one guy we haven't talked about.

298
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 7: You didn't mention the majority n yesday.

299
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 11: Was TJ beass. But my biggest concern with this offensive

300
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 11: line is the depth. Like we talked about on the show,

301
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 11: on your show for a couple of days. Now, do

302
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 11: we have an update on where Tyler Smith's at. It's

303
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 11: hard to get something offline and my guy to fill

304
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 11: in that role if they had to the number one guy.

305
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 6: Would be TJ Batt.

306
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 11: I haven't seen anybody play as well as him through

307
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 11: the entire appreciaton.

308
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 3: Yep. TJ bass Is is the guy that that has

309
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 3: has been impressive. And he was one of those names

310
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,240
Speaker 3: when you looked at the list of free agents and

311
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 3: you said, well, you know he he was on draft

312
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 3: boards fifth round, sixth round, three times, all Pac twelve

313
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 3: at Oregon and play different positions. So I was very

314
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 3: intriguing right off the bat that that he was gonna

315
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 3: to join this team. And anytime the draft is over,

316
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 3: you're always thinking, Okay, who who are the two or

317
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 3: three names, because there's always gonna be a few, And

318
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:32,360
Speaker 3: Hunter Lipke was one and he made the team, and

319
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 3: and so did TJ. Bass And I feel like there's

320
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 3: another one there missing it. But but I do think

321
00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 3: that there was there was two or three that that

322
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 3: made this team. I mentioned it early, Tyler Smith. He's

323
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 3: gonna do some some practicing today as far as really

324
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 3: more individual stuff trying to get in there. Not really

325
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 3: team they're they're they're they're kind of holding him out

326
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 3: until maybe Saturday's the day. Saturday, we'll see what he

327
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 3: can do and there'll walk through before they get on

328
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 3: the plane. I think it's gonna go right up to Sunday,

329
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 3: just to see how he feels. My gut just watching

330
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,520
Speaker 3: him on the cords moving, you know, a little bit

331
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 3: of jogging that it's Thursday. Now you have a Sunday

332
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 3: night game. I think Sunday night and I mean think

333
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,800
Speaker 3: about seven hour eight hour difference there from playing a

334
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 3: night from a noon game. I think that that that

335
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,240
Speaker 3: that'll help him. I mean it's a little bit more time.

336
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 3: So I think he'll he'll be fine. And you know,

337
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 3: I just think that he's gonna be able to play.

338
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 3: But if he doesn't, I think they'll go with Cheumaidoga.

339
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,240
Speaker 3: But I'm with you there that I kind of would

340
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 3: like to see what TJ. Basket do. Maybe not against

341
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 3: the Giants week one against Exter Lawrence, but I am

342
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 3: intrigued on what he can do. All right, Do we

Speaker 3: Eugene Lockhart had two hundred and twenty two tackles one

392
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,760
Speaker 3: year as the record in nineteen eighty nine. That team

393

Speaker 3: couldn't tackle, but one guy was doing it and it

394
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:48,400
Speaker 3: was Eugene Lockhart. Doug Donnelly bat Man had the blonde

399
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:06,520

00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 3: record's been broken, but he had the record at the

401
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:12,800

402
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 3: six inches or some some of the ridiculous. I think

403
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:19,159

416
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 3: So when you ask a question, I'm not just asking

417
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 3: right back and get your thoughts.

418
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 16: Okay, Well my question is I just wanted to get

419
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:54,359
Speaker 16: your overall thoughts on the NFC East, Like do you

420
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 16: think it's going to be better? Do you think the

421
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 16: teams are all going to be stronger in general? Or

422
00:20:58,040 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 16: I know some of the team's made some moves and

423
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 16: you know, the Giants made the playoffs last year and

424
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,199
Speaker 16: obviously the Eagles and US. So I just wanted to

425
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,080
Speaker 16: get your take on that. And also I have an

426
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:12,400
Speaker 16: old player for you, Richie Anderson. I believe he led

427
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 16: the team in receptions when you're yeah.

428
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:20,119
Speaker 3: Two thousand and four, left handed Richie Anderson threw a

429
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 3: touchdown against Washington on a Sunday or Monday night game.

430
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 3: I remember left handed past to Terry Glenn. I remember

431
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 3: Parcels loved him. He was a bill parcels guy for sure,

432
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:33,160
Speaker 3: So I.

433
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,399
Speaker 16: Do remember that those are the Parcels years, right before or.

434
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 8: Right around the Romo time, right before.

435
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,359
Speaker 3: Romo came in, right right, all right. Thanks for the call, Victor.

436
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:43,640
Speaker 3: To answer the question about the NFC East, I mean,

437
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:45,720
Speaker 3: I think it's I mean, I think it's going to

438
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,119
Speaker 3: be competitive and kind of goes up and down, you know.

439
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:49,639
Speaker 3: I mean, a couple of years ago it was the

440
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,440
Speaker 3: worst division and football seemed like and then last year

441
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 3: was it was I think it was the best, and

442
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 3: so I think it's going to be pretty good again.

443
00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,920
Speaker 3: I mean, it always has its peaks and valleys. We'll

444
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,040
Speaker 3: see if that the street continues. I think we're up

445
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 3: till at twenty years in a row, we have not

446
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 3: had a consecutive NFC East winner. I know Philly's trying

447
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,159
Speaker 3: to change that, but I think Philly is gonna be

448
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:12,800
Speaker 3: really good. I think the Cowboy's gonna be good. I

449
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,359
Speaker 3: think the Giants are still right there third, but they're

450
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:19,399
Speaker 3: they're probably the best third place team in the NFC East,

451
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 3: and we'll find out. I mean that they have something

452
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:23,960
Speaker 3: to say about it. Washington, their defense is still is

453
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 3: still gonna be good. And when you have a good

454
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 3: defense that travels. We saw that with Philly last year.

455
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 3: Their first loss was at home against Washington. So they're

456
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 3: always going to be tough because they have a really

457
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,959
Speaker 3: strong defense. So that those guys right there, I think

458
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,280
Speaker 3: are gonna are gonna be really good. All right, another

459
00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:43,880
Speaker 3: phone call, I think Geo on the line.

460
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 6: Is that?

461
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:44,960
Speaker 3: Who we got, Geo?

462
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:46,639
Speaker 6: Jersey?

463
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:46,879
Speaker 1: Nick?

464
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:47,680
Speaker 3: Oh, what's up man?

465
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 9: I'm good brother. Listen, I got two quick questions for you.

466
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 9: You've been around the Boys forever. It's the fastest Cowboys

467
00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:59,399
Speaker 9: offense you've seen. I mean, we've got wide receivers like

468
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,880
Speaker 9: burn Us, like cooks Lamb, and then the half back

469
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:07,520
Speaker 9: position were Pollard and vond you had turfing in there.

470
00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:11,200
Speaker 9: And then our tight end Now they're faster than what

471
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 9: we've usually had. Right, shows that we're witting before. And

472
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 9: then my second question is that this division is sacked

473
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:24,200
Speaker 9: with good to elite defensive lines. Does losing an elite

474
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 9: past blocking back like Zeke Well that hurt it this year?

475
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,360
Speaker 9: And how do you counter that this year? I'll let

476
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:30,640
Speaker 9: you go.

477
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 3: Thank you all right, man, thank you and I love

478
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:38,359
Speaker 3: two questions that to me tie into each other. Love

479
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 3: that and I don't know if you meant to do that.

480
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 3: I'll go with the second one first, because, yeah, I mean,

481
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:45,639
Speaker 3: running the ball right up the middle is gonna be

482
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:47,480
Speaker 3: gonna be tough. I think it's one of the reasons

483
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,240
Speaker 3: why Tyler Smith is playing left guard. I mean, they

484
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 3: need that push right up the middle. It's one of

485
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:54,439
Speaker 3: the reasons that they said, you know what, we do

486
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 3: need to pay Zach Martin. We'ren't expecting to, but we

487
00:23:57,680 --> 00:23:59,199
Speaker 3: have to. We got it. We got to show up

488
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:00,720
Speaker 3: that middle. You got to be able to run the ball.

489
00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 3: Terrence Steels also a really good run blocker as well.

490
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:05,680
Speaker 3: So yeah, they're gonna run the football against it. They're

491
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,240
Speaker 3: going to try, at least against these teams. But if

492
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 3: it doesn't work out, goes back to your first point. Speed.

493
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:15,680
Speaker 3: Speed can alleviate a lot of these issues. And sometimes

494
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:17,399
Speaker 3: when you can't run the ball right up the middle,

495
00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 3: you're gonna have to take it to the outside. And

496
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 3: what do you need for that? You obviously have to

497
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,199
Speaker 3: have speed. I think I think it's a great point.

498
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:27,119
Speaker 3: It is the fastest offense I've seen in a long time.

499
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 3: I mean, because your quarterback is able to move more

500
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,920
Speaker 3: than the other quarterbacks that have been here. The receivers though,

501
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 3: just from top to bottom, you've got some home run

502
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,120
Speaker 3: threats running back to even your third running back Douce

503
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 3: font and Rico Daddles. Your second running back Tony Pollard

504
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 3: obviously can take it to the house. So yeah, tight

505
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:48,159
Speaker 3: ends as well. I think the they're athletic. They got

506
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:50,359
Speaker 3: some guys that can stretch the field. So yeah, this

507
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,879
Speaker 3: is probably the most athletic offense that I've seen in

508
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 3: a long time, and I think that you're gonna have

509
00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 3: to to do that. You're gonna need to utilize these

510
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:04,439
Speaker 3: guys all over the field. All right, Terry from Shawnee, Oklahoma,

511
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,960
Speaker 3: We're going to go back to the phone line. Terry

512
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:08,119
Speaker 3: from Shawnee, Oklahoma.

513
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:13,800
Speaker 10: Terry, Yeah, the reason I'm calling. I saw where the

514
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 10: Cowboys signed two players and to the hear myself, Yeah,

515
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 10: Hallow is one of them and another guy which is

516
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 10: a defensive tackle. But I hadn't heard anything about them

517
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 10: and what positions do they really play?

518
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:41,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I appreciate the call there from Shawnee, Oklahoma.

519
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:42,320
Speaker 4: Oh.

520
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 3: I believe that's Oklahoma Baptist University is there. It's where

521
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:47,159
Speaker 3: my mom went to school, so that I know a

522
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:52,280
Speaker 3: little bit about Shawnee, Oklahoma. Harlowe. I believe. So you're

523
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:55,600
Speaker 3: talking about their on offense, a guard or center actually

524
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 3: is a center that they picked up on. He's on

525
00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,920
Speaker 3: the practice squad. I think eventual he might be a

526
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 3: guy that they can elevate to the game if they

527
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:07,120
Speaker 3: need it this week, it would probably be brought Hoffman instead,

528
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:09,600
Speaker 3: and I'd have to I'd have to go look at

529
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:12,119
Speaker 3: the roster again on another guy that they brought in

530
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:15,160
Speaker 3: defensive tackle. I'm not one hundred percent sure on that.

531
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,960
Speaker 3: It doesn't ring a bell. It's a practice squad player.

532
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:21,720
Speaker 3: I believe who you're referring to. Don't remember another guy

533
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:24,399
Speaker 3: that they brought in. But I don't think that that

534
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,640
Speaker 3: he's gonna be somebody that will be active this week.

535
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:30,400
Speaker 3: Harlow probably won't. I would think Hoffman is the one

536
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,400
Speaker 3: if they if they need all right, we're gonna we're

537
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:35,720
Speaker 3: gonna keep going to the phone lines here, Maurice to

538
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 3: comb and wash what's up?

539
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 5: Yes, sir, how you doing it?

540
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:42,920
Speaker 3: I'm great, man, you I'm doing great man.

541
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 5: It's a beautiful day. Hey. My question is, I'm still

542
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 5: a little bit concerned about this Tyler Smith situation. I'm

543
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:52,639
Speaker 5: wondering how much does that affect the scheme and the

544
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:56,320
Speaker 5: game plan if he's not able to go? What you

545
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 5: think about that?

546
00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 10: Yeah?

547
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 3: I think, uh, I think with if he doesn't play,

548
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 3: I think you you lose a little bit of an

549
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:07,680
Speaker 3: interior strength, and I think that you're gonna go more

550
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 3: sideline to sideline. You're gonna have some some stretch plays

551
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,840
Speaker 3: or running wide, you know. I We'll see what what

552
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:18,160
Speaker 3: Idoga's got. I mean, I've said all along I thought

553
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,240
Speaker 3: he's a guard. I mean, they played him in tackle.

554
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:23,679
Speaker 3: I would have he's got guard body like he you know,

555
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:27,600
Speaker 3: he's got That's where he played well, uh, right before

556
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 3: he got hurt. I believe it was with Atlanta last year.

557
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 3: So I kind of thought he was gonna be the

558
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,199
Speaker 3: guy to compete at left guard this year. If Tyler

559
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 3: Smith was playing left tackle. They resigned, you know, or

560
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:43,400
Speaker 3: not resigned, but they restructured, uh Tyron Smith and removed

561
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,159
Speaker 3: Tyler inside. But I think he doga can handle it.

562
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,359
Speaker 3: I don't think you changed that much. He's got some

563
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,560
Speaker 3: size and strength to him. But but I you know,

564
00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:55,120
Speaker 3: the screen game may not be the same. That's one

565
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,440
Speaker 3: thing about this team. I don't want to give away things,

566
00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 3: but I think they may run the screen a little

567
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 3: bit more then then we've seen in the past, which

568
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 3: hasn't been a great screen screen pass team since Dorset

569
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 3: was doing it back in the day. Really, but I

570
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:11,160
Speaker 3: think that they have the players on the team now,

571
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 3: going back to the last call with the speed, I

572
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,359
Speaker 3: think that this could be something that we see a

573
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,120
Speaker 3: little bit more screen passes. And if that's the case,

574
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:21,200
Speaker 3: you do need those athletic guys to get out there

575
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 3: in space and pull. All right, the phones or phone

576
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:28,960
Speaker 3: lines are going in. Bob from Grand Valley? Bob, what's up, hey, Nick?

577
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 6: How you doing, buddy?

578
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 3: Great Man? How are you? Bob?

579
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 17: I'll tell you what I'm really looking forward with the

580
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:38,720
Speaker 17: Sunday night out. Yeah, you know the Giants are They're

581
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 17: not going to have an advantage despite having an extra

582
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 17: man in the bike bill Sunday night, because that extra

583
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,120
Speaker 17: man in their backfill is going to be one number

584
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 17: of eleven eleven one mister Michael Parker.

585
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 3: He's going to live back there, hey, and.

586
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 17: What that's going to do is not only him making

587
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,240
Speaker 17: sacks and pressure in the quarterback. That pressure that he's

588
00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:01,160
Speaker 17: going to put on a quarterback is going to mister

589
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 17: Jones to make newmore a mistake. And uh, I think

590
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 17: our secondary is going to feast off of that and

591
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:12,960
Speaker 17: they're going to really come up with some turnovers. That's

592
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:13,920
Speaker 17: what I got for you, Betty.

593
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 3: I appreciate that. Thank you so much for the call. Bob.

594
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:21,720
Speaker 3: I did get a text line question about that Dan

595
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:22,520
Speaker 3: from Philly.

596
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 10: Uh.

597
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,840
Speaker 3: He said, not worried as much about Barkley, more worried

598
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 3: about Daniel Jones scrambling on broken plays to extend the drive. So, yeah,

599
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 3: Daniel Jones can can make some plays, and that's one thing.

600
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:37,000
Speaker 3: Mike McCarthy said that that Trey Lance was actually used

601
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:41,000
Speaker 3: on the scout team and and kind of able to

602
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 3: to simulate a little bit of what what Daniel Jones

603
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:46,600
Speaker 3: can do. He's probably a little better athlete, but but

604
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 3: but you know, I think Jones is good at those

605
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,280
Speaker 3: type of plays, broken plays where where you know it's

606
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 3: wide open there in the middle and he can go

607
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 3: and slide get your first down and all that stuff.

608
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,240
Speaker 3: Michael Parsons, I think that's going to be the key

609
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:04,080
Speaker 3: is is how they how they go, you know, away

610
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 3: from him at times. That's why it's so important for

611
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,959
Speaker 3: him to be able to rush really from three spots.

612
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 3: He needs to rush from left side, right side, and

613
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 3: sometimes up the middle because that is going to be

614
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 3: the first read. I remember, uh, there's a game way

615
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 3: back in the day with Patriots played the Ravens. I

616
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 3: think it was in the playoffs, and it's been it's been,

617
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:23,960
Speaker 3: you know, well documented that that on on Brady's wristband

618
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 3: it said find twenty every play talking about Ed Reid.

619
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,400
Speaker 3: I probably need to find Ray Lewis too, but find

620
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,480
Speaker 3: twenty every play and read Ed Reid would go all

621
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,720
Speaker 3: over the place. I don't think anyone's going to just

622
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:38,400
Speaker 3: write that on their on their armband, but find eleven

623
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 3: on every play. Has got to be something that Daniel

624
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,560
Speaker 3: Jones and every other quarterback has to has to to

625
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:45,840
Speaker 3: realize because he's going to be that much of a

626
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:49,400
Speaker 3: difference maker all over the place. All right, a little

627
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:51,640
Speaker 3: bit on overtime here, we'll see if we got any

628
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 3: more calls. We got some some throwback players. Though from

629
00:30:56,080 --> 00:31:00,000
Speaker 3: Stephen Vermont, he said, what about Kevin Olgletree, especially since

630
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:03,800
Speaker 3: for playing the Giants this week. You know, that's one

631
00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:06,800
Speaker 3: of my favorite stories, honest. I actually in the book

632
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 3: that I wrote, If These Walls Could Talk, it was

633
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:11,200
Speaker 3: one of the stories in there on Kevin Ogletree in

634
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,880
Speaker 3: the twenty twelve game. It was a Wednesday night game,

635
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 3: the only time we've ever played on a Wednesday night,

636
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:18,760
Speaker 3: and to open the year, they had just won the

637
00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 3: Super Bowl. Kevin Ogletree's brother, I believe was in the

638
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 3: hospital and in New Jersey because that's where he was

639
00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 3: from that day that Wednesday afternoon, he went and visited

640
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:32,560
Speaker 3: him in the hospital. And then he comes back and

641
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,280
Speaker 3: has the greatest game of his career, without a doubt.

642
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 3: I think he had two touchdowns, I had a huge

643
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:41,040
Speaker 3: third down conversion to win the game. And that was

644
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 3: the Kevin Ogletree game, if there is one, And he

645
00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:46,600
Speaker 3: won that game. And that's why it's so exciting about

646
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:50,000
Speaker 3: a game like this here, you know, to start the season,

647
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,960
Speaker 3: because you know, we wrote an article yesterday the X factors.

648
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,200
Speaker 3: It's Micah, it's Dak it's Daniel Jones, it's Barkley. It's

649
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:59,040
Speaker 3: gonna be someone else. It's gonna be someone else is

650
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 3: gonna make a huge play. Dimone Clark's gonna have an

651
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 3: interception or force fumble or something something big.

652
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 18: You know.

653
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:08,440
Speaker 3: That's that's what makes this thing so exciting. You don't

654
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 3: really know who who's gonna do it, Who's gonna make

655
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:14,360
Speaker 3: that play. It's gonna be somebody and and you know,

656
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,280
Speaker 3: and hopefully for the Cowboys it's it's it's someone you know,

657
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 3: like who's this year? Is Kevin Ogletree? You know, maybe

658
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,240
Speaker 3: it's Jalen Tolbert or wouldn't that be a great story?

659
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 3: All right? Phone line again, This is Marquis from Alexandria, Virginia.

660
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 15: Hey, Marquis Marking.

661
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,560
Speaker 3: Sorry about that, Mark, Marquis Bell, Yeah, messes me up

662
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:33,000
Speaker 3: a little bit.

663
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 15: All right, But Markey, I think we all know D

664
00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 15: line O line and very big. But I think a

665
00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,600
Speaker 15: real key factor will be our how we utilize the

666
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 15: middle of the field with our slide receivers running backs

667
00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 15: out the backfield to slow down their pass rush. But

668
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:48,960
Speaker 15: I think for us, our biggest kill on defense is

669
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 15: gonna be on Nickel corner, Blaine or Jordan Lewis because

670
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:54,520
Speaker 15: big I'm trying to get the ball out their hands quickly.

671
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 15: They're gonna know, trying to go to Diggs, trying to

672
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,000
Speaker 15: go to Kilmore, how most gonna be a waste of time.

673
00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 15: That pass't gonna be it. So I'm sure the game

674
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:03,880
Speaker 15: plan is going to be to get the ball out

675
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:07,000
Speaker 15: of Jones's hands quickly. So our nickel corners are gonna

676
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:11,080
Speaker 15: have to really be good, and vander Ash and Clark

677
00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:14,240
Speaker 15: are gonna really have to cover those flats. But I

678
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:16,320
Speaker 15: really am looking forward to the game. I like your

679
00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:16,760
Speaker 15: new show.

680
00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 3: I appreciate that.

681
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 8: That's all I got.

682
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 3: Thank you, man, Marquis. And I can tell you this, Uh,

683
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:26,800
Speaker 3: he played football. Markus played football, and he probably played

684
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:30,080
Speaker 3: in the slot because his keys for the Cowboys offense

685
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:32,960
Speaker 3: is the slot receivers and also on defense it's the

686
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:37,240
Speaker 3: slot corner and and that's and he's he's right because

687
00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 3: because that's that's where the game happens, that's where it's

688
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:41,920
Speaker 3: so fast, that's where you know you can do everything

689
00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:44,719
Speaker 3: you want to protect the outside, protect the corners. They

690
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:48,680
Speaker 3: have a sideline to help those inside slot cornerbacks though

691
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:51,200
Speaker 3: they have no help. And and you're going up against

692
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:53,600
Speaker 3: and you know, I think gone are the days where

693
00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:57,040
Speaker 3: you're just going up against the Oza Keeam or something

694
00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 3: like that in the slot. That's a short little guy,

695
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:02,000
Speaker 3: possession guy or Wayne Corbette. No, no, no, these these studs,

696
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:04,920
Speaker 3: these ce D Lambs and aj Brown's and all the

697
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,160
Speaker 3: all the top receivers, they line up all over the place,

698
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:09,160
Speaker 3: and so you know, it really puts a lot of

699
00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:11,400
Speaker 3: pressure on your slot corner. And Deron Bland I think

700
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 3: they found somebody special there. And Jordan Lewis is really

701
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,120
Speaker 3: good at it as well, but I think Dern Bland

702
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:18,640
Speaker 3: is a guy that they're going to have in here

703
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,360
Speaker 3: for a long time to be playing in the slot.

704
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:23,800
Speaker 3: And the same goes the other ways with the Cowboys

705
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,800
Speaker 3: because Brandon Cooks can line up inside. We've seen Gallup

706
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:29,160
Speaker 3: do it at times in CD as well, so that

707
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:30,880
Speaker 3: that's gonna be a big match up there. I know

708
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 3: the Giants were really excited about their guy at Dorry

709
00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:35,080
Speaker 3: Jackson this year. They think he's going to have it

710
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:38,279
Speaker 3: take it to another level. Well we're gonna find out,

711
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,400
Speaker 3: because you know, you go up against Cedee Lamb to

712
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 3: start the year. All right, the phone line again Joe

713
00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:45,280
Speaker 3: in Florida.

714
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:48,080
Speaker 18: Hey, how's it going, Man?

715
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:49,120
Speaker 3: What's up? Joe?

716
00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:50,440
Speaker 4: God too much? Man?

717
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:51,319
Speaker 6: I love you.

718
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:53,320
Speaker 4: I love you on the break man, so I really

719
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:54,960
Speaker 4: love love your your new new show here.

720
00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:56,880
Speaker 7: Thanks, but I appreciate.

721
00:34:56,960 --> 00:35:00,440
Speaker 4: I have a quick question. I'm always curious about why NFL,

722
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 4: pretty much every other sports league makes makes it knowledgeable

723
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:07,319
Speaker 4: to the public on what a player gets paid. I'm

724
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:09,600
Speaker 4: always curious about that because your job, my job, everybody

725
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:11,759
Speaker 4: else's job. We don't do that, And I was just

726
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:13,560
Speaker 4: wondering why that is.

727
00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:17,600
Speaker 3: Well, I think I think the the reason why it

728
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:22,440
Speaker 3: is is because of your you have a salary cap

729
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,200
Speaker 3: that that that everybody can can pull from. Everybody knows

730
00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:28,160
Speaker 3: what the salary cap is, and everyone has the same amount.

731
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 3: So really it's not so much I don't I don't

732
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:33,319
Speaker 3: know if it's so much about the players. It's also

733
00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:36,279
Speaker 3: about the management of the team and the GM and

734
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:38,920
Speaker 3: how they structure things and and and why and and

735
00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 3: probably all stems from the fact of back in the day,

736
00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 3: the early parts of the salary cap, like why would

737
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:50,560
Speaker 3: this team cut this player? Why would the forty nine

738
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:53,399
Speaker 3: ers get rid of Joe Montana or the Cowboys ever

739
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:57,160
Speaker 3: cut Troy Aikman. I mean that's what I would guess.

740
00:35:57,239 --> 00:35:59,399
Speaker 3: And then it's like, well, well we didn't. We love

741
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:01,240
Speaker 3: Troy Aigman. He's going to be in our Ring of Honor.

742
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,520
Speaker 3: But it's because of this, It's because of Look look

743
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:06,239
Speaker 3: at the salary. Look and I think I think that's

744
00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:09,200
Speaker 3: kind of where it all, where it all stems from.

745
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:12,759
Speaker 3: I mean, it's also the structure of the team. Uh,

746
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,960
Speaker 3: you're right, it's it's it's different. But then again, everything's

747
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 3: different between what we're making and what they're making, and

748
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:21,759
Speaker 3: and and you know, and you know, I think I

749
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:23,920
Speaker 3: think when when you have ticket prices the way they

750
00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:26,160
Speaker 3: do for the fans, I mean I think the fans

751
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:29,320
Speaker 3: feel obligated to kind of know that I there's probably

752
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:31,320
Speaker 3: more stories behind it. It's the first time I've actually

753
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,520
Speaker 3: been asked that question, So you kind of got me

754
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:35,600
Speaker 3: on that one. But but I you know, that's what

755
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,520
Speaker 3: I would think. It would more to justify some of

756
00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:42,440
Speaker 3: the moves that they made from the front office positions.

757
00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:47,240
Speaker 3: All right, Another caller Erwin in Denver, Irwin.

758
00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 5: What's up, hey, Nick?

759
00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:49,680
Speaker 9: What's going on?

760
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:50,479
Speaker 3: Not much?

761
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:50,680
Speaker 10: Man?

762
00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 3: How are you.

763
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:52,840
Speaker 15: You're doing great?

764
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 6: Hey?

765
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:55,360
Speaker 19: I gotta I got a question for you. I just

766
00:36:55,440 --> 00:37:00,640
Speaker 19: want your thoughts on this. Always think about these preseason

767
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:04,800
Speaker 19: games and the fact that McCarthy doesn't play the starters,

768
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:08,120
Speaker 19: just kind of wondering what you were thinking about this

769
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,359
Speaker 19: Sunday night when they come out there and play. Are

770
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:13,120
Speaker 19: they how rusty are they're going to be? In particular

771
00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:16,399
Speaker 19: Dak Prescott, because it seems to me like the other

772
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:19,360
Speaker 19: teams for the most part place their starters were a

773
00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:22,040
Speaker 19: little bit and then we don't they get into that

774
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:24,640
Speaker 19: first game and they just looked sluggish, rusty and out

775
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:24,959
Speaker 19: of sync.

776
00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:25,560
Speaker 5: What do you think.

777
00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:31,080
Speaker 3: You know, you have a good point because of last year.

778
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:34,080
Speaker 3: I mean, you have that to you can point to.

779
00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:36,960
Speaker 3: I mean, they scored three points against Tampa, you know,

780
00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:39,040
Speaker 3: and we saw at the end of the year just

781
00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:43,360
Speaker 3: how the Cowboys were related to Tampa, way better of

782
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,399
Speaker 3: a football team, and they did not look good. Dak

783
00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:49,480
Speaker 3: did not look good at all in that game, you know,

784
00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 3: and you know, you go back to twenty twenty one,

785
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:55,640
Speaker 3: Dak didn't do anything, had been out, he didn't even

786
00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:58,800
Speaker 3: practice because he had like a armpit injury or whatever

787
00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 3: that was an arm injury. And they go out and

788
00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:03,640
Speaker 3: he throws for about four hundred yards and then you

789
00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:05,520
Speaker 3: know they lose thirty one to twenty nine. But I

790
00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:08,799
Speaker 3: thought the offense played well. Twenty twenty, there wasn't preseason

791
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:11,680
Speaker 3: because of COVID. In twenty nineteen, they scored thirty five

792
00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:15,000
Speaker 3: points against the Giants in Week one, and you know,

793
00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:18,120
Speaker 3: look good doing that. And we year before that eight

794
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:21,160
Speaker 3: points at Carolina. And I go back to five years

795
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:24,000
Speaker 3: because since Romo got hurt in that Seattle game, I

796
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 3: don't think they've really used the starters a whole lot.

797
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:30,239
Speaker 3: I mean maybe here and there. Another counter to that, too,

798
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:33,439
Speaker 3: is think about in the postseason when when a team

799
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:36,239
Speaker 3: takes a week off at the end of the end

800
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 3: of the year because they've already locked something up and

801
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:39,960
Speaker 3: then they have a bye, and then then they go

802
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:41,760
Speaker 3: into the playoffs and we're all, what are we always

803
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,239
Speaker 3: talking about? We're like, well, what happens? I mean, the

804
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:47,200
Speaker 3: Russ factor. It's been two weeks, they haven't done anything. Well,

805
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:51,200
Speaker 3: even if you played the last preseason game, you still

806
00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:53,960
Speaker 3: have two weeks. I mean, it's still two weeks off.

807
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:56,719
Speaker 3: So the risk reward just isn't there for me. You

808
00:38:56,719 --> 00:39:00,600
Speaker 3: could play, you could play your starters for three straight games,

809
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:02,759
Speaker 3: You're still going to have two weeks off, really two

810
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,160
Speaker 3: and a half weeks off because those are usually Thursday

811
00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:07,840
Speaker 3: games at the last one Thursday or Friday, and then

812
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:09,640
Speaker 3: and then you know, you still got to deal with that.

813
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:13,920
Speaker 3: So for me, I hear what you're saying, and you

814
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:15,879
Speaker 3: got to hope that the Cowboys can kind of fight

815
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,640
Speaker 3: through that in the first quarter or so. But I

816
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:21,720
Speaker 3: think most teams are going to have that rust factor

817
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:24,800
Speaker 3: except for Kansas City. They just don't have any of

818
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:27,480
Speaker 3: that issues, which is just good for them. All right.

819
00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:32,319
Speaker 3: Another caller here, Dave in a Popka, Florida. Dave, what's up, Hey,

820
00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:32,759
Speaker 3: what's going on?

821
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:33,040
Speaker 17: Brother?

822
00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:33,799
Speaker 3: How are you?

823
00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:38,360
Speaker 18: I'm doing well? Hey, Nick? I got a special teams

824
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:41,080
Speaker 18: question for you. And I've asked people this question before.

825
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:44,359
Speaker 18: Why don't they put Deuce Vaughn on the punt team

826
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:47,520
Speaker 18: in the backfield with the punter. He is so short

827
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:50,680
Speaker 18: they couldn't see him, and I thought think that they

828
00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:53,880
Speaker 18: lost an opportunity during the preseason to use him as

829
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:56,200
Speaker 18: a fake You just have him run left or right,

830
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:58,600
Speaker 18: run up the middle, do a fake pass or something

831
00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:01,320
Speaker 18: like that. I think that be great if the Cowboys

832
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:04,520
Speaker 18: special teams coach could incorporate something like that.

833
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:06,560
Speaker 3: What do you think, Well, I think that if if

834
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 3: there's a fake to be had on special teams, uh,

835
00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:12,600
Speaker 3: you know, John Fossil is gonna do it or he's

836
00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:16,319
Speaker 3: thinking he's you know, laying awake at night coming up

837
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:18,719
Speaker 3: with another one. I mean that's what he does. I mean,

838
00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:19,880
Speaker 3: he's gonna have some fake punts.

839
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 10: Now.

840
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:21,799
Speaker 3: I don't know about throwing it out in the preseason

841
00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:23,880
Speaker 3: unless you're just not going to do it again, unless

842
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:25,960
Speaker 3: you want to throw out fakes for the reason of

843
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:30,160
Speaker 3: just to try to to to scare teams in their coverage.

844
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:33,080
Speaker 3: Because that's what Fossil's done. He's he's thrown so many

845
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:36,280
Speaker 3: fakes that teams that go up against them know, Okay,

846
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:38,640
Speaker 3: his reputation is fake punts. So we have to stop

847
00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:41,439
Speaker 3: for that. And he hardly ever does it. Of course,

848
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:44,160
Speaker 3: he did it and Thanksgiving against Washington, and I don't know.

849
00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:47,400
Speaker 3: If we've run another fake punts, it's then But no,

850
00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:51,359
Speaker 3: I think you know, who knows what duce Van's role

851
00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:53,000
Speaker 3: is going to be. I mean they're gonna have some

852
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:55,959
Speaker 3: some things for him. They'll have some wrinkles. As great

853
00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:58,239
Speaker 3: as that sounds, to put him back there and see

854
00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:00,920
Speaker 3: what he could do. Let's see what happens when a

855
00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:04,040
Speaker 3: when a linebacker shoots right up there, right over the

856
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:06,680
Speaker 3: deep snapper and he's going one on one with him

857
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:10,160
Speaker 3: at full speed. You know, Kenny, Kenny, block him? Do

858
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:12,600
Speaker 3: you want him to block him? And make sure you

859
00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:15,600
Speaker 3: don't have a block punt. So there's always, as Bill

860
00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:18,799
Speaker 3: Parcells would always say, there's two sides to the pancake there,

861
00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:20,520
Speaker 3: And yeah, you can put them out there, but you

862
00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:24,759
Speaker 3: also have to make sure that you block them. I

863
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:27,160
Speaker 3: got every time I see text messages, but I also

864
00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:29,359
Speaker 3: see calls. When I see calls, I'm sorry, I lean

865
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:31,879
Speaker 3: towards the calls because that's what makes the show fun

866
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:35,880
Speaker 3: in my opinion. Chris in San Angelo, what's up, Chris?

867
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:37,279
Speaker 6: I'm doing well?

868
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:37,600
Speaker 17: Nick?

869
00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:39,160
Speaker 7: Are you?

870
00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:41,799
Speaker 3: Are you a Rams fan over there? I'm not not

871
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:47,000
Speaker 3: not l a Rams absolutely all right. Well that's that's

872
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,799
Speaker 3: a rival to my school Midwestern.

873
00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:51,919
Speaker 20: State national champions last year.

874
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:55,680
Speaker 3: That's right, that's right. So we'll see what my Midwestern

875
00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:59,120
Speaker 3: State Mustangs can do there against the Rams.

876
00:41:59,160 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 5: All right?

877
00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:01,200
Speaker 6: What you we will?

878
00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:07,560
Speaker 20: My question is, you know the Cowboys after some cuts,

879
00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 20: a few of their players went to other NFC teams

880
00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:15,080
Speaker 20: and then they ended up getting one back from the Giants.

881
00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:19,399
Speaker 20: Are you any kind of believer in that could those

882
00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:22,960
Speaker 20: players could help with the game planning or do you

883
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:25,680
Speaker 20: think that's just something that's fun to talk about it.

884
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:27,799
Speaker 3: I think it's fun to talk about I really do.

885
00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:31,640
Speaker 3: I don't. I think if it was a quarterback, you know,

886
00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:35,239
Speaker 3: I do I think that when Tom Brady played the

887
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:37,959
Speaker 3: Patriots a year later, Do I think that he could

888
00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:41,720
Speaker 3: have helped their defensive coordinator, you know, with some stuff

889
00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:44,960
Speaker 3: or offensive coordinator. Yes, I do, but but I don't

890
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:49,200
Speaker 3: think that certain guys that go, you know, like Dennis

891
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:52,360
Speaker 3: Houston at wide receiver just trying to learn that the

892
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:54,279
Speaker 3: playbook over there the Giants. I don't know who you're

893
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:57,360
Speaker 3: referring to, but I know that was one right. He's

894
00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:00,280
Speaker 3: not gonna help what they're trying to do over there,

895
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:02,520
Speaker 3: like like, he's not going to go into their defensive

896
00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:05,080
Speaker 3: coordinator and be able to talk to about He needs

897
00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:06,520
Speaker 3: to figure out just how that he can get on

898
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:10,000
Speaker 3: the field. So, you know, I know, I think it's

899
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:12,280
Speaker 3: a little bit overblown. I think there are some quarterbacks

900
00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:14,400
Speaker 3: that could do it, and maybe some longtime veterans that

901
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:17,600
Speaker 3: understand what they're doing. Yeah, they probably can help. But

902
00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:21,319
Speaker 3: maybe for somebody that you're cutting now, it's because they

903
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:24,480
Speaker 3: couldn't pick up their own offense, but much less figure out, uh,

904
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:26,520
Speaker 3: you know, how to how to spread it to the

905
00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:28,960
Speaker 3: next team. All right, I do have another call, Sam

906
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:32,080
Speaker 3: and Philly. Sam, what do you got?

907
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:33,399
Speaker 17: Hey?

908
00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:33,719
Speaker 5: You doing?

909
00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:34,000
Speaker 15: Nick?

910
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:35,879
Speaker 8: I'm a big fan of yours, man, I've been listening

911
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:37,799
Speaker 8: for a long time. I got your book right here too.

912
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:39,360
Speaker 3: I appreciate that, Thank you.

913
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:43,240
Speaker 8: I just want to talk about the team in general, okay,

914
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:45,319
Speaker 8: I mean, because we've been so used to like mediocrity

915
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:48,120
Speaker 8: for so long, and then listen. I'm a big fan

916
00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:51,360
Speaker 8: of Jerry. I love Jerry. I'm Jerry's biggest fan. But

917
00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:54,280
Speaker 8: don't you see how like they brought in new coaches,

918
00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:56,919
Speaker 8: They brought in Dan Quinn, they Mike McCarthy, and there's

919
00:43:56,960 --> 00:44:00,520
Speaker 8: like some more stip stability going on where they're actually

920
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:04,080
Speaker 8: winning and they're actually getting to the second round consistently.

921
00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:08,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, yeah, that's if that's the question.

922
00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:10,680
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean it's not been like I don't think

923
00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:13,279
Speaker 8: like I don't think that the players were necessarily the

924
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:16,520
Speaker 8: problem of like, you know, they obviously have better players nowadays.

925
00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:17,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, but they had.

926
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:20,120
Speaker 8: Some good teams with Romo and then like, I just

927
00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:23,240
Speaker 8: think the coaching was terrible and to keep Jason Garrett

928
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 8: around for that long was like a big mistake.

929
00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:30,480
Speaker 3: Well, Jason Garrett was like, I mean, Jason, you know,

930
00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:33,120
Speaker 3: was it Jason Myers from or is his name from

931
00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:35,880
Speaker 3: Friday the thirteenth? I mean, like or Freddy Krueger. I mean,

932
00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:38,200
Speaker 3: like you think it's over, Like this is it? I mean,

933
00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:40,320
Speaker 3: you're the hot Seaton, you know. Then he goes twelve

934
00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:42,359
Speaker 3: and four, then he goes thirteen to three, and then

935
00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:44,600
Speaker 3: it's eight and eight, and every time you were like,

936
00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:47,160
Speaker 3: I mean, really go back and look at those years.

937
00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:49,920
Speaker 3: I mean, you could make the case when he went

938
00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:51,400
Speaker 3: eight and eight three years in a row, one of

939
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:53,520
Speaker 3: those he could have he could have moved on. But

940
00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:55,840
Speaker 3: Jerry's not trying to do that. Jerry's not trying to

941
00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,280
Speaker 3: He wants to build some continuity, so he's not trying

942
00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:00,600
Speaker 3: to just just fire people after a year or two.

943
00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:02,719
Speaker 3: So you know he's gonna he's gonna let him in

944
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:06,120
Speaker 3: every time. Jason Garrett kind of helped himself there with

945
00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:08,759
Speaker 3: with having a great season when he was when the

946
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:12,680
Speaker 3: hot seat was was at its hottest. So that's I

947
00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:16,000
Speaker 3: think that I think that you're You're right. The coaching

948
00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:19,319
Speaker 3: could have been could have been better at times, but

949
00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:22,080
Speaker 3: you know, they Jason Garrett, I think that.

950
00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:25,279
Speaker 8: He got extremely lucky getting dan Quinn, and I think

951
00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:27,480
Speaker 8: he's even luckier that he's sticking that he's sticking around.

952
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:29,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, of course, I mean, look at the look.

953
00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 8: At what the guy does, dude. The guy took Seattle

954
00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:33,440
Speaker 8: and that that that.

955
00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:34,440
Speaker 17: Team was all defense.

956
00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:36,640
Speaker 8: Dude, Like he was the reason why they won that

957
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:39,000
Speaker 8: super Bowl, why they got to the super Bowl. Then

958
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:40,959
Speaker 8: he goes to Atlanta, they go to the super Bowl.

959
00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:43,400
Speaker 8: We're lucky to have that, dude. And like, if you

960
00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:45,760
Speaker 8: would have just picked better coaches along the way, Romo

961
00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:48,279
Speaker 8: could have. You know, I'm a big Romo fan. Yeah,

962
00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:49,200
Speaker 8: huge Romo fan.

963
00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:51,840
Speaker 5: Well, I mean also that they had those.

964
00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:53,480
Speaker 8: Good teams and you know what I mean, they couldn't

965
00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:56,120
Speaker 8: really do anything because they had Rod Marinelli and Jason Getrett.

966
00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:58,759
Speaker 3: I hear you. And also that they're lucky that dan

967
00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:01,360
Speaker 3: Quinn wants to stay and he's not looking to be

968
00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:04,120
Speaker 3: a head coach right this second. So that they've been fortunate.

969
00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:05,400
Speaker 3: Most of the time, you get a head coach that

970
00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:07,400
Speaker 3: when the when the when they're calling to become a

971
00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:11,200
Speaker 3: head coach, you take it. So, you know, and Jason

972
00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:13,040
Speaker 3: Garrett had a couple of chances too, and he and

973
00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:15,520
Speaker 3: he didn't. He passed and he stayed, and you know,

974
00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:17,920
Speaker 3: I think Jason Garrett was a good coach. But but

975
00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:20,799
Speaker 3: good coaches don't necessarily went. Great coaches I have got

976
00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:23,640
Speaker 3: to take you over the top. And I think that's

977
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:27,160
Speaker 3: kind of where it stands. So all right, appreciate the call,

978
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:28,920
Speaker 3: Appreciate all the calls. This is great. We had a

979
