Quickly, I'm answering, 52 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,359 Speaker 1: what is the new general? What?

I am grooming you for 63 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 1: whenever I go to Mexico for good, take the baby, 64 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 1: take the wife, and don't come back.

Oh that's true, that's true. 67 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: This is true. Kurt, just point us in a direction 68 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: of we'll go just pick a topic. Well, you know, 69 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: we're still getting a lot of talking about dan Quinn 70 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: and what he's gonna do. And the Dallas Murne News 71 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: had a pretty good article kind of breaking down his defense, 72 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,279 Speaker 1: and it sounds like they're going back to kind of 73 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 1: what they did do. I think you had missed it 74 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 1: last week, Jesse, even the Cover three kind of base defense, 75 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 1: but they were criticized before. Marion Elli and Richard got 76 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,480 Speaker 1: a lot of criticism for being too vanilla, and now 77 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 1: that's what we're asking him to do. I mean, do 78 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 1: you see this working? Are we having the right direction here? Okay, Jesse, 79 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go first, because I knew I could see 80 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 1: you taking a deep prefer getting rid of the reason 81 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: this will work because dan Quinn, even though he had 82 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: a lot of great back end players with the with 83 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: his previous team where he had success with Seattle, and 84 00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: he's a defensive line coach, he understands and he's bought 85 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 1: in in his mind that if I can get these 86 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 1: defensive linemen to play in the correct gaps and stop 87 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: the run and earn the right to rush the passers, 88 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: that I could stay simple and do a few a 89 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 1: few wrinkles here and there on my back end and 90 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: let guys grow what you cannot do. And dan Quinn, 91 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: I think it's a great defensive mine, and I think 92 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,279 Speaker 1: it's for the first time in a long time, we 93 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: address an issue where a lot of people are not 94 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: talking about. He started and cut his teeth with defensive linemen. 95 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 1: He understands the importance of that, and so now he's 96 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,839 Speaker 1: going to be looking at these guys more than anybody. 97 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 1: And the guy that he brought in, the pass coordinator, 98 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: he's gonna be like, I'm gonna be looking at you 99 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,279 Speaker 1: to really help these guys understand what we want. But 100 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 1: up front, if they fix up front, we won't talk 101 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: about the dvs as much as we are now that's 102 00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: just my take on it. Jesse Gold, here is where 103 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 1: it starts. Here is the genesis, and here it was 104 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: the genesis, and and and and revelation in the alpha 105 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 1: the Omega. Here's where it starts, and here's where it finishes. 106 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: Dan Quinn will only be successful, and I do mean 107 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:26,480 Speaker 1: this is the only way he will be successful, as 108 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 1: if the Joneses fully commit to giving him the resources 109 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:38,280 Speaker 1: that he needs, not not not not cutting corners, not 110 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 1: not the great value uh you know, not not off 111 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 1: the scrap heap, not trying to go down to your 112 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 1: local home depot. If dan Quinn and this defense is 113 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,840 Speaker 1: going to succeed, and I and and again I'm not 114 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 1: looking for the number one defense in the league. I'm 115 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: looking for a defense that's around ten to fourteen to fifteen. 116 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: I think if you give a defense that can give 117 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 1: you that, and they can have the late surge of 118 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: producing turnovers like they did late in the year, earlier 119 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: in the year, and consistently throughout the year, you have 120 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 1: a very good This team is going to score points. 121 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: It has always been built to score points. It has 122 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: the pieces to score points. It is going to score points. 123 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: And I honestly I don't give a damn who's calling 124 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 1: the plays. Now that when I say I don't give 125 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 1: a damn who's calling the place, I only mean that 126 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 1: in a sense of whether it's Kellen, whether it's Mike, 127 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 1: whether it's Ut nuss Meyer, whether it's Nate Newton. This 128 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: offense is built to score points. If you're not going 129 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: to give dan Quinn all of the resources that he needs, 130 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 1: you'll find yourself trying to piece together a defense again, 131 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 1: and we'll find ourselves against the better teams in our 132 00:07:54,560 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: division and on our schedule, beating us in games because 133 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: we don't have the personnel to stop anybody. To Nate's point, 134 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 1: dan Quinn is a defensive lineman coach at heart. That's 135 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 1: where you got to start at. That's where he knows 136 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: best at. So he's going to try to build it 137 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: from the front. Back. He knows that if I can 138 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: get my guys up front and not allow teams to 139 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 1: completely dominate us and do whatever they want to us, 140 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 1: whether that be running or passing. And quarterbacks have an 141 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: extremely amount of time in the pocket. Because this is 142 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 1: a quarterback league. Every quarterback that we're going to face, 143 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 1: I shouldn't say every ninety eighty five to ninety percent. 144 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 1: The quarterbacks that we're going to face are going to 145 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: be able to throw the football well. And if we're 146 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,840 Speaker 1: not creating pressure, if we're not making them uncomfortable with 147 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 1: our front four, not adding extra pieces that when you're not, 148 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,439 Speaker 1: when you add that's bonus. If I can get pressure 149 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 1: with my front four, then I can manipulate the back end. 150 00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 1: I can do things to disguise, to be discreet, to 151 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 1: do all those different things. But it starts, and it 152 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 1: ends Genesis to Revelations Alpha and Omega with Jerry Stephen, 153 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 1: Little Jerry All, Charlotte, Will McClay. It starts there. They 154 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 1: have to give him the resources. This football team. And 155 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: I talked with someone this past weekend who was very 156 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 1: close inside the locker room. This football team was too 157 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 1: small defensively. It was too small defensively up front, it 158 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 1: was too small in the middle, and so that's why 159 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: it got pushed around. It got big boyed, it got 160 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 1: little broad, it got bullied. And until you are dress 161 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:50,439 Speaker 1: those and seriously address those, I'm not looking for no 162 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 1: more Downtario pos. You gotta get some legit. It's downtario 163 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: until he plays well, until you get some legit players 164 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,679 Speaker 1: in here, and I don't know what you I'm not 165 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,680 Speaker 1: smart enough. I'll never claim to be smart enough. I 166 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 1: can just add and count my own money. But until 167 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 1: you get until you commit serious dollars to good players, 168 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,839 Speaker 1: you're going to handicap Dan Quinn. And we'll be having 169 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: the same discussion, Kurt bookmark this. We'll be having the 170 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: same discussion in November and December and saying, well, who 171 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 1: do we blame this one all now? Because we didn't 172 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 1: been through We hadn't been through a plethora of defensive coordinators, 173 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,080 Speaker 1: and none of them have seemed to get it right 174 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:42,839 Speaker 1: or be able to have a dominant defense. And the 175 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: main reason being is not scheme, not this, not that 176 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: who's calling what. It's the Jimmy's and joe that they're 177 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 1: putting on the field. They're they're putting guys out there 178 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 1: and they're trying to sprinkle this magic dust and hoping 179 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 1: they turned into Pro bowlers and it just happening. And 180 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 1: you get exposed a great deal in this league when 181 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:05,839 Speaker 1: you just put a bunch of guys out there who 182 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 1: aren't truly football players. So I was looking at I 183 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: was looking at spot track the site website that kind 184 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:16,599 Speaker 1: of tracks salary cap and that sort of thing, and 185 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 1: I've found it interesting as far as the team's ranking 186 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:24,320 Speaker 1: and percentage spent on defense, So on the salary cap, 187 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:28,559 Speaker 1: how much of that percentage goes to defense? The four 188 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 1: remaining playoff teams, Tampa Bay rigs thirteenth in the league 189 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:36,679 Speaker 1: on percentage spent on defense, Buffalo ranks twelfth, Green Bay 190 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 1: ranks eleventh, in Kansas City ranks seventh. Actually, Cowboys, they 191 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: ranked thirty first, And so I wonder that's why who's blowing? 192 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:51,320 Speaker 1: And that's why? You know what? Man, I don't even 193 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 1: want to say nothing, because what bothers me is every 194 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 1: year I keep saying. Every year, as soon as I 195 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: say we're going sixteen and old, the next thing I 196 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 1: say is, man, we need to get a defense. We 197 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 1: need to get a defense. Every year, I am screaming, Jesse, 198 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 1: thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, because now 199 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 1: all of your mad twitters will start following you saying, okay, 200 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 1: Jesse said, it must be the truth. Nate is saying 201 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: for eight years and ain't nobody to listen, including the 202 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 1: Jones is adding, so basically, who do you got on 203 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: that defensive go ahead, How I was gonna say based 204 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 1: off that, you guys are both saying a defensive lineman 205 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 1: defensive tackle is going to be more important than finding 206 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: a safety again this year. Correct. You know, let me 207 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 1: be a little bit. I llowed because you know, I 208 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: get a little passionate sometime and I say, I'm not 209 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: gonna do that this offseason. Would you rather for a 210 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 1: defensive lineman that can tackle a guy for a two 211 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,680 Speaker 1: yard game? Are you rather for a safety that's tackling 212 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 1: the guy for a six yard game? It's a great point. 213 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean because that is what Jesse explained 214 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 1: us to two weeks ago when he said, look at 215 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 1: these guys. This certain guy tackle he's five yards off 216 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 1: the ball. The running back is eight yards off the ball. 217 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: But how does this guy getting cross the line of 218 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 1: scrimmage and you're tackling him for a four or five 219 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:27,080 Speaker 1: yard game? All you gotta do is run the ball 220 00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 1: three times and you got the first down. If you 221 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 1: don't ever fix this front end, I mean, seriously fix it. 222 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,679 Speaker 1: Where you're holding people around one hundred and five one 223 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 1: hundred and ten yards no more per rushing the game. 224 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: And that's as that's counting your quarterback runs too. You're 225 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: gonna always be I mean, we was giving up at 226 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: one point, what a hundred and seventy yards a game? 227 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 1: Rushing your safety? I don't know what to do? Am 228 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 1: I a linebacker? Am I safety? Back? Here in the 229 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 1: deep one third? I mean it was it was bad 230 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: there for a minute. Fellows, y'all know that. But well, 231 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: who do you got on the defensive line right now 232 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 1: that you can work with? You got DeMarcus Lawrence. But 233 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,959 Speaker 1: after that, I mean Randy Gregory short signs as a 234 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:12,839 Speaker 1: pass rusher, but he's not. It doesn't seem to be 235 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 1: in every down defensive anaman. Who else you got? The 236 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 1: thing is, that's why I believe whole holiday. I don't 237 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: if I'm mister Jones and will em and I don't 238 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 1: care what the rest of the league do. I have 239 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 1: to have my defensive linement out there on the field 240 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 1: where the coaches can see them doing something. Because we 241 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: got Tristian Hill, we got a naval naval Gallimore, and 242 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 1: we got and Antoine Woods. Those are three guys. You 243 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,840 Speaker 1: got to find out if these guys are worthy of 244 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 1: being on your team. Are they rotation players as Jesse said, 245 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 1: are they gonna be pieces that can help your team? Are? Are? 246 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 1: Are they gonna be the guys? I know, if Antoine 247 00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 1: Woods played thirty or less plays, he can be dominant 248 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 1: as a run stopper. But like Jesse said, now, I've 249 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: always tried to tell people, when you say thirty one, 250 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 1: thirty two, thirty three, you get thirty five plays, you 251 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 1: don't max this guy out. He's five foot eleven, three 252 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 1: hundred pounds. That ain't gonna work. His arms are not 253 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 1: longer than mine. So after about thirty five plays he 254 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 1: threw I mean whether he and I know people may 255 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: get mad at me, but he threw it didn't look 256 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 1: like a quick fix. Fellas Jesse said, if you're if 257 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 1: we're gonna if we're as media is gonna be like, Okay, 258 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 1: I see what the jones is saying, they ain't got 259 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 1: no money, they can't spend no money in the draft 260 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: is totally against us. But see, I never I never 261 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 1: believed that, Like I never believe that the Joneses don't 262 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 1: have any money. I'm not talking about personally, I'm talking 263 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: about even within the realms of the cap. They go 264 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 1: and they designed these deals right Todd Williams and Crew. 265 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: Todd knows the numbers. Todd knows how you can hit 266 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 1: switches and turn things in the bonuses and turn things 267 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: like there's money. Jerry, when you've been around this organ 268 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 1: you've been around this organization since the nineties, Shannon, you've 269 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 1: been a part of the organization for what seventeen years? Yeah? Yes? 270 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: How many? How many years? Kurse? How many years have 271 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 1: you gotten to this? Over ten? Yeah? You got over ten. 272 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: I got over ten. We're all, Chris being got twenty. 273 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: We're all ten plus years of being part of the organization. 274 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 1: Name me one time. Name me a time where Jerry 275 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 1: or Steven or somebody they wanted a player that they 276 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 1: did not get because of money. Don't worry, we have 277 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 1: a whole hour. We got time. You can't name one. 278 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 1: You cannot name one because they find a way. Jerry 279 00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 1: finds a way. He knows how to move pieces and 280 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 1: things to get what he wants. That's the key. What 281 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 1: he wants, What he wants, What sells tickets? What puts 282 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 1: butts in the seats? See the big sexis in and 283 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,359 Speaker 1: the big sexies up front. They don't put butts in 284 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 1: the seats. They don't sell many jerseys. You can't put 285 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,400 Speaker 1: them on ticket stubs. You don't make the big posters 286 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 1: for them outside. You're not doing car commercials. They're not 287 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: pepsi or they're not ford right because they're not sexy. 288 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: They're not sexy. They don't they don't look like me. Okay, 289 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 1: they're not sexy. We're doing a show. We're trying to 290 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:42,920 Speaker 1: do a show. And so at times you know they're 291 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:48,199 Speaker 1: they're not prioritized. They're not prioritized. But this has to 292 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 1: be a priority this offseason. You you you went out 293 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 1: and you got Dan Quinn cool, totally fine with it. 294 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 1: I understand it. I was totally ford. I thought Mike 295 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:02,400 Speaker 1: Nolan was was was horrible. Get it. You made the change. Now, 296 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 1: so you got him cut go ahead on that's followed me. 297 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 1: But now what do you do? You can't you can't 298 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 1: keep this carousel of Hey, coach coming here and this 299 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 1: is the that you this is the card that you've 300 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:20,720 Speaker 1: been dealt. You gotta make the best hand. Now, I'm 301 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 1: not we're not gonna win this way. Hey, you gotta 302 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 1: be able to say, all right, coach. You know it's 303 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 1: like when when when a new college coach comes in 304 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 1: and he says, here's what I need to upgrade these facilities. Now, 305 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,200 Speaker 1: don't hire me if you're going to handicap me and 306 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:36,879 Speaker 1: not give me the things that I need to win you. 307 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 1: I'm talking about coaches in general and all, you know, 308 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 1: but schools always find money for those things. That's a 309 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,119 Speaker 1: whole other conversation. What I'm saying is is that is Jerry, 310 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 1: if you're going to hire dan Quinn, then by all means, 311 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 1: give him the resources that he needs, that he wants, 312 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 1: give him a chance. Keeps shoving these these players that's 313 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 1: been on this roster for the last couple of years 314 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,399 Speaker 1: down the stroke. They ain't working. They ain't worked with 315 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,440 Speaker 1: the last off defensive coordinator. And guess what, they ain't 316 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:14,480 Speaker 1: worked for the one before them. So so so there's 317 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:17,639 Speaker 1: a trend here. You need to get better players you 318 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:22,359 Speaker 1: can keep. This is the third defensive coordinating three years. Yeah, 319 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 1: this is the third one. This is the third difference, right, Marionelli, 320 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 1: Right right? You fired that that group, you hired Mike Nolan, 321 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 1: you fired him out three year. Now you got dan Quinn. 322 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 1: This is the third guy. Now you got three guys 323 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 1: in here in three years. What has to change? Because 324 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 1: you know already change these guys three times. Yeah, you 325 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:45,120 Speaker 1: got players in there. How much of it was maybe 326 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: influenced by the coaching staff over the last ten years, 327 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 1: because we know, like Garrett, I think he wanted Zeke 328 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 1: over Jade and Ramsey. We know Marionelli kept you know, 329 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 1: he didn't put an emphasis on defensive line. I could 330 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,399 Speaker 1: work with him. You know how much of that was 331 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 1: influenced by the coaches, and so it may be more 332 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:04,200 Speaker 1: likely to change now because you have a different staff 333 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:11,200 Speaker 1: in there. Well, well, most coaches power coaches. And I'll say, 334 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:14,680 Speaker 1: like like the guy with New Orleans, the guy with 335 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 1: the Seahawks, guys like that, they were able to pick 336 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 1: their general managers. And when you're able to pick your 337 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 1: general managers, you can kind of they know what you like, 338 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: they know what you want. They know how to go 339 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 1: out and get the players that you're seeking. So when 340 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 1: you say, hey, I got your guy, they just you know, 341 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: they look at the film. Whereas our coaches, and I 342 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,360 Speaker 1: could be dead wrong, but it seemed like our coaches 343 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 1: get a chance to pick the guys. I say, let 344 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:43,119 Speaker 1: will McClay pick the guys in the first, second, and 345 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 1: third round. Hey, these are the three guys. These are 346 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 1: the guys we're looking at. They had the right backgrounds, 347 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,400 Speaker 1: they're not injured, they don't have a lot of mental 348 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 1: and physical problems. These are your three guys, not some 349 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 1: guy you don't spend the night in the hotel with 350 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 1: and come back to say, y'all, I can work with 351 00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 1: this guy that ain't working for us, that has not 352 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:06,479 Speaker 1: worked in the last eight seven eight years. All Right, fellas, 353 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 1: tell you what. We're talking about money. We're talking about 354 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 1: finding money. Let's talk about the guy that's that that 355 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 1: needs to get paid. But let's put a hypothetical out there. 356 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 1: What if they decide that Dak is not the guy 357 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:24,879 Speaker 1: long term? Let's just say, hypothetically, how do they handle that? 358 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 1: Do they franchise tag him for this year? Do they? 359 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 1: What are they? What do they do and what are 360 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 1: they doing? And then let's talk about take it a 361 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 1: step further. You got four pretty damn good quarterbacks that 362 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:41,120 Speaker 1: are left on the road to the Super Bowl. Where 363 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 1: does Dak rank compared to these guys? Is he in 364 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 1: that conversation? He is he getting close? Is he there? 365 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:49,919 Speaker 1: Let's talk about that. Let's talk Let's make the next 366 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 1: segment all about Dak Prescott when we come back, Nate Newton, 367 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: Jesse Holly, Kurt, Daniel, Shanengross like coming at speaking up 368 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 1: big fight Saturday.

Okay, let's talk about we're talking 421 00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 1: about money earlier. Let's talk about Dak Prescott before we 422 00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: get into this hypothetical question about if they don't think 423 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: he's the long term guy because they've been telling us 424 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: he's the guy for three years now and they still haven't. 425 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 1: They still haven't shown us that he's the guy. We've 426 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 1: heard it, we haven't seen it yet because he's he's 427 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:22,160 Speaker 1: year to year. But you got four pretty damn good 428 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 1: quarterbacks that are left in the playoffs right now. You've 429 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:29,359 Speaker 1: got Jared Allen, which is you know, been on the 430 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 1: up for the last couple of years and really is 431 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:35,239 Speaker 1: having a great year. You got Patrick Mahomes, we all 432 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:38,199 Speaker 1: know what a freak he is. You got the old guys, 433 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:42,360 Speaker 1: Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers left. So four really good 434 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:46,159 Speaker 1: quarterbacks left, you know, in the playoffs heading to the 435 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 1: super Bowl. Where does Dak in your opinions? Where does 436 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,879 Speaker 1: he fit into that conversation with those four guys? Is 437 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 1: he Is he there yet? Is he almost there? I 438 00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 1: think we probably all agree that he's He used to 439 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,440 Speaker 1: be considered middle of the pack. I think he's graduated 440 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 1: from that and he's entering this conversation. I think he's 441 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: probably B plus material. You got your A guys, and 442 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 1: then you got your your B level guys. I'm thinking 443 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 1: he's probably seven six seven, eight, somewhere in there in 444 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 1: the league. But what are your guys thoughts on where 445 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 1: he is. Let's just say if he would have had 446 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,440 Speaker 1: a full year based off of what we saw this year, 447 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:37,400 Speaker 1: where would you rank him? Well, being the non football 448 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 1: player here, I would I rank him pretty high. I 449 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 1: guess I'm being a homer, but I mean he's statistically, 450 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:46,119 Speaker 1: he's right up there with them. All I think his 451 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 1: leadership is coming along. He doesn't have the experience of 452 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,679 Speaker 1: those guys. He hasn't obviously in the playoffs, he has 453 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:54,439 Speaker 1: nowhere near that kind of experience. So I wouldn't say 454 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,479 Speaker 1: he's maybe on their level yet, but i'd put him 455 00:26:56,560 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 1: up there with Allan obviously the Buffalo's quarterback. He's almost there. 456 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 1: I would just I don't know if I put him 457 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 1: on that top tier, but maybe a close second tier. 458 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 1: I think this is a guy that Cowboys have to 459 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 1: build with. I'm just not sure what they're holding on 460 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:12,920 Speaker 1: because I would put him up there with us with 461 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:17,159 Speaker 1: some of the best in the game. Right now, Oh, 462 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 1: Nate's rubbing his head. That's never. That's never, you know, No, 463 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:28,919 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say this right here, man, it's two guys 464 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:36,119 Speaker 1: that have shown tremendous, tremendous growth. And Jess, I'm asking 465 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:40,920 Speaker 1: you this. This was the least kid. The kid in 466 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 1: Buffalo was what we called the least. He had the 467 00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:48,879 Speaker 1: big arm, the big body, He was athletic. Are you 468 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 1: sure you're gonna put Dak where he at? Is this kid? 469 00:27:52,160 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 1: Think this? This kid is doing it? And see now 470 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:04,159 Speaker 1: that you see for the first time and forever a 471 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:08,119 Speaker 1: kid like Wentz who just fell off the map. So 472 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 1: I'm saying to myself, I want to believe my eyes. 473 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 1: I think Alan is the top quarterback. And Jesse, I'm actually, 474 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:23,439 Speaker 1: what do you think? Um? I think Alan is ascending fast. 475 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,159 Speaker 1: And the thing that we can't fall victim too is 476 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:29,640 Speaker 1: recency bias. Right, But and I get it this league 477 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 1: is what have you done for me lately? League? And 478 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 1: Dad has missed this, you know, ninety percent of this 479 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 1: season due to the ankle injury. And when you're out 480 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 1: of the picture, people tend to forget about you. When 481 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 1: you're not doing anything, people tend to overlook you. Now, 482 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:51,720 Speaker 1: I think there's a stratosphere of Aaron Rodgers, Patrick Mahomes, 483 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 1: and I think they sit a top of the lists, 484 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 1: right and and that's that's their realm. They're they're in 485 00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 1: a space where they're untouchable. Okay, And I think there's 486 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: that that next tier where you can start putting guys 487 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 1: in there. You know, you put Tom Brady's in there, 488 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 1: and even though he's the goat, you know he's regressed, 489 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 1: he's not in that top echelon of of quarterbacks anymore. Um. 490 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 1: I think you can throw a guy like Russell Wilson 491 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 1: into that second tier of quarterbacks now, you know, depending 492 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 1: on how many you want to have in this tier. 493 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 1: I think that Dak is titering in that bottom second 494 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:34,000 Speaker 1: half tier to the very top of that third tier 495 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 1: and not being here this year. It hurts, you know 496 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:39,960 Speaker 1: that all we have to go off is what we 497 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 1: have to go off of. And when you look and 498 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 1: see what a guy like Josh Allen has done, you know, 499 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 1: this year, and how he's risen his game, and maybe 500 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 1: I'm on the band I'm on this wagon alone with 501 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 1: with the Carson went situation, because the same way we 502 00:29:56,360 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 1: speak about how Josh Allen has taking this this huge 503 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 1: leap to start him, I just don't see how a 504 00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 1: player who wasn't literally up until the last week of 505 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: the season or two weeks of the season, was a 506 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 1: MVP was literally saying he was going to win the 507 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 1: MVP of the league to down saying that he doesn't 508 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:23,960 Speaker 1: have it at all. Like that's the part that I 509 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 1: personally just can't buy. That's a huge drop off. And 510 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 1: it wasn't like he was like he was ascending when 511 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 1: he got car And I'm speaking of Carson Wentz when 512 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 1: he got to that level. So in the same breath, 513 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 1: is is Josh Allen real? Like is that a real ascension? 514 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 1: And I think it is. I think what you're seeing 515 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 1: with him is like I talked about for the defensive 516 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:52,360 Speaker 1: part of the Cowboys, Buffalo said, if we're going to 517 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 1: make this kid better, we have to go get the 518 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: necessary pieces to make him better. And one of the 519 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: biggest offseason signings of trade or however you want to 520 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 1: call it, what's going to get a kid like Stefan 521 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 1: Dix to go to put him with a guy like 522 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley And now you have a legit number one, 523 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 1: you have a legit slot receiver, and now your quarterback 524 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 1: isn't trying to do things that he isn't capable of 525 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 1: doing because he doesn't have the weapons to do so, 526 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 1: so I think Dak is in that lower part of 527 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:25,960 Speaker 1: the second tier, the very tippity top of that third 528 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 1: tier of quarterbacks. And again, depending on how many we 529 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 1: could we could put. We could say we're gonna put 530 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 1: five in each tier, all right, then that moves him up. Something. 531 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 1: We can say we're gonna put three in each tier, 532 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 1: all right, when that moves him down something. It all 533 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 1: depends about how many quarterbacks we're gonna put in each tier. 534 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:45,719 Speaker 1: But I do think Aaron Rodgers and Mahomes and Patrick 535 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 1: Mahomes that they sit on the throne on top where 536 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 1: no one else should be able to come into that 537 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 1: conversation right now. And hence why these two are probably 538 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 1: the last two finalists for the MVP of this season, 539 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 1: and it's probably gonna go to Aaron Rodgers, who most 540 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 1: people a year or two ago was saying Aaron Rodgers 541 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 1: was finished and he was done, And now you're saying 542 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:09,000 Speaker 1: that he's back to that old Aaron Rodgers, that that 543 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 1: that that bad man MVP Aaron Rodgers again. So if 544 00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 1: you're asking me again, I say, I say bottom top 545 00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 1: of the second tier, tippity tippy top of the third tier, 546 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 1: depending on how many you putting those tiers, and you're 547 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 1: putting so Jesse, you're saying Patrick and Aaron Rodgers there, 548 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 1: that's tier one, just those two guys because they're so late. 549 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 1: Then you're so basically you could say, you could say 550 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 1: Dak is in the bottom of the the first tier. 551 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 1: If you're taking those two guys out bottom of the 552 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 1: first tier, very top of the second tier in that 553 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:48,720 Speaker 1: in that conversation, yeah, I mean if you're yes, yeah, 554 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: what if you're if you're talking about the you're talking 555 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 1: about the Josh Allen's, I'm talking about the Russell Wilsons. Uh, 556 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 1: you know type quarterbacks of the world. When I when 557 00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 1: I look at a quarterback, and this is what it's 558 00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 1: so hard for me to judge, because when I'm looking 559 00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 1: at a quarterback and you have put the right pieces 560 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:15,880 Speaker 1: around this kid, now you look, you get into the playoffs. 561 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 1: If you put the right pieces around this kid, can 562 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:24,600 Speaker 1: he be that difference in winning that game? If your 563 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 1: defense is playing tight and ain't giving up nothing, if 564 00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 1: your offensive line is blocking and doing right, you're going 565 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:37,160 Speaker 1: back and forth, can you, as a quarterback make that move? Well? 566 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: Even though we have put Tom Brady out of the 567 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 1: first tier. We know Tom Brady can make this move. 568 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 1: We know Russell Wilson can make this move. This kid 569 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 1: for Buffalo last week, they didn't. They didn't. He didn't 570 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 1: run a lot and his running backs didn't run a lot. 571 00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 1: He threw the ball. He threw the ball. So we 572 00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 1: know he can make this move. Right now, now he's 573 00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 1: still a question. We know. I am waiting for this 574 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 1: team and maybe it'll never happened. To have a good defense. 575 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 1: They have a nice offense. I want to see us 576 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:16,280 Speaker 1: in the playoffs because that is how you get totally 577 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:20,320 Speaker 1: judged in the playoffs. And and it's coming down to 578 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 1: DA versus whoever? Now, can I get this victory? That 579 00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:29,760 Speaker 1: is how Lamar is losing favor. That is how Lamar 580 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:33,719 Speaker 1: is losing favor because they built this around you. They 581 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 1: got gave you a defense, you got a social offensive 582 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 1: line that you got nice running backs. Okay, can you 583 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:44,160 Speaker 1: be that guy that takes you over the top. We 584 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:46,759 Speaker 1: haven't seen that from that And that's why I say, 585 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:49,399 Speaker 1: that's why I asked you to talk about this kid 586 00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 1: from Buffalo, because you have seen this and once you 587 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:57,400 Speaker 1: see it, then you can believe it. So we know 588 00:34:57,600 --> 00:35:00,319 Speaker 1: that Tom Brady can carry a team. We've seen We've 589 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:04,360 Speaker 1: seen Aaron Rodgers carry a team. Both Mahomes and Alan 590 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 1: have great players around them. Do you think if Dak 591 00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:10,719 Speaker 1: Prescott was on those teams he would be he would 592 00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:13,560 Speaker 1: take those He would take the Chiefs in Buffalo to 593 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 1: the championship games if he had that kind of talent 594 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:22,239 Speaker 1: around him. Dak has to me, Dak has talent on 595 00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:25,279 Speaker 1: his offense right now than Buffalo has. Just give him 596 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 1: some defense, yes, give him some defense. He has way more. 597 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:32,399 Speaker 1: He has way more talent on his team overall. Yeah, 598 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 1: Buffalo has not even not even close. Um saying, you 599 00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:41,000 Speaker 1: can even argue, if we start talking about man for man, 600 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,319 Speaker 1: we can argue that he has more talent than they. 601 00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:47,520 Speaker 1: Having gives a city now. He may not have more speed, 602 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:53,719 Speaker 1: but talented. You you can't find a route runner. You 603 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,359 Speaker 1: can't find a route runner on Kansas City that runs 604 00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 1: better rout than a Mark Cooper. You can't, You can't. 605 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:03,400 Speaker 1: You cannot find an overall better route running, playmaking receiver 606 00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 1: on Kansas City than Amarty Cooper and so and you 607 00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:13,840 Speaker 1: and you you're making my point, Jesse, You're making my point. 608 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:18,400 Speaker 1: So until this team build a real team around this 609 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 1: kid and give him some type of defense or a 610 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:25,399 Speaker 1: smart enough defense and special teams that don't hurt him 611 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 1: to let him say, Okay, you know, we don't. We 612 00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:33,759 Speaker 1: have never questioned Drew Brees. Uh, Aaron Rodgers, even a 613 00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 1: young kid in Ksey. It's certain quarterbacks with a minute left, 614 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:40,640 Speaker 1: we ain't questioning them. Please please, hey, take all the 615 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 1: time off the clock. Old, don't let this guy old old. Heck. Oh, 616 00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:46,040 Speaker 1: we gave Russell Wilson the ball. Oh my god, Oh 617 00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:51,400 Speaker 1: what have we done? Well, guess what we ain't. I 618 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:53,759 Speaker 1: don't see people. You know, his rookie year after this 619 00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:56,279 Speaker 1: rookie year, we felt this way. But the last few 620 00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:58,600 Speaker 1: years you haven't felt this way with a minute. And 621 00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:00,960 Speaker 1: this is why I said, this is why take over me. 622 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:03,799 Speaker 1: That's why I said bottom of tier two, very top 623 00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:07,520 Speaker 1: of tier three. Yeah yeah, yeah, and I agree with that. 624 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 1: I agree with that. But he in tier one, in 625 00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:15,000 Speaker 1: the tier two. It's some horses out there, man, Aaron 626 00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:20,560 Speaker 1: Rodgers have went. When you give a great quarterback a 627 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:26,400 Speaker 1: great coach, somehow, some way, they always get in the playoffs. 628 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 1: Now you go and check all of these quarterbacks. We 629 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:32,359 Speaker 1: have talked about, and I bet they have a better 630 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 1: than sixty percent rate of getting in the playoffs because 631 00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:38,319 Speaker 1: number one, that coaches have been nice, and number two 632 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 1: they have been nice. Aaron Rodgers have made receivers. You know, 633 00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:47,320 Speaker 1: not this, not this freaky got now, but brother, this 634 00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:51,880 Speaker 1: is unreal what Aaron Rodgers has done with virtually nothing. 635 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 1: If Aaron Rodger would have had these three receivers, we 636 00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:59,239 Speaker 1: got Oh, come on, man, I saw that play. Come on, 637 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:02,759 Speaker 1: I saw the play that he ripped all of our 638 00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:05,759 Speaker 1: hearts out at at and T Stadium a few years back. 639 00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:08,560 Speaker 1: I saw that again this week, and I forgot how 640 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:13,719 Speaker 1: great of a play and throw that was, like off 641 00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:17,719 Speaker 1: his back foot, across his body to the sidelines where 642 00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:23,360 Speaker 1: only his guy left. Stupid, stupid. So for everybody, everybody 643 00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 1: that's still upset about the playoff game in Green Bay 644 00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:30,799 Speaker 1: when Dez caught it but didn't catch it, calmed down 645 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,399 Speaker 1: and just because Aaron Rodgers was gonna march right back 646 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 1: down that field and score again with no time left, 647 00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:41,879 Speaker 1: no questions asked. So the Cowboys weren't gonna let Yeah, 648 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 1: he had plenty of time on a bad leg, And 649 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:53,200 Speaker 1: you asked, And see that's why you know when I 650 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:57,560 Speaker 1: when I when I speak on quarterbacks, man, you have 651 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:03,640 Speaker 1: to understand the things that has to happen for a quarterback. 652 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:07,360 Speaker 1: I mean, look at Tom Brady got smashed in the 653 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:11,319 Speaker 1: first game against New Orleans, barely lost. The second game 654 00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 1: against New Orleans, went in they house, their defense played well, 655 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:22,759 Speaker 1: and Tom Brady figured out a way to keep his 656 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:25,960 Speaker 1: guys into the game until the quarterback broke down. For 657 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 1: for the Saints, that's special, man. You Aaron Rodgers. They 658 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,080 Speaker 1: went out and they went out and draft of the 659 00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 1: guy in the first round, you know, his future replacement. 660 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 1: How does Aaron Rodgers answer? Hey, you know what, I'm 661 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,399 Speaker 1: gonna brain this playoff through Green Bay this year. That's 662 00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:48,799 Speaker 1: how I'm gonna answer. So we So I keep telling 663 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:50,719 Speaker 1: people tom Brady like, you know what, I'm tired of 664 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:53,960 Speaker 1: you better check grunt retire. I'm gonna get you out 665 00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:56,279 Speaker 1: of retirement. You're gonna work by the end of the year. Hey, 666 00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:58,839 Speaker 1: and turn your brown keep backing the full. I got 667 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:00,960 Speaker 1: you at the end of the year, you know, And 668 00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:03,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna brand this thing together. Yeah. I know the 669 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:06,440 Speaker 1: coach don't want you, but come on, brother, when you 670 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:11,839 Speaker 1: go to talking and that's for Dak. That's WinCE. When 671 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:16,840 Speaker 1: you go to talking about quarterbacks, it's about three or 672 00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:19,960 Speaker 1: four guys in this league that nobody's going to be 673 00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:23,600 Speaker 1: able to touch if they have a great coach and 674 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:26,720 Speaker 1: they have themselves. I have a I have a theory 675 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:29,879 Speaker 1: on Brady losing two and then winning the playoff game. 676 00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:33,560 Speaker 1: If you are a good team, not if you're trash, 677 00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:36,640 Speaker 1: but if you're If you're a good team, above average team, 678 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,400 Speaker 1: you cannot beat a team and then you can't be 679 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:43,399 Speaker 1: beating three times in the NFL. I just don't think 680 00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:46,880 Speaker 1: it's possible you if you lose two in the regular 681 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:48,919 Speaker 1: season and you face that team in the playoffs. I'd 682 00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:52,480 Speaker 1: love to see what that win percentage is because it 683 00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:54,359 Speaker 1: happened to Cowboys. What was a part of a team 684 00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:59,279 Speaker 1: that did that? Ye folks like that? Did you really 685 00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:03,759 Speaker 1: like that? Three times? Yeah, we'd be Philly. That's right 686 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:06,000 Speaker 1: to the non Often we beat Philly twice in a 687 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 1: regular season and then we either to play we played them, 688 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:11,359 Speaker 1: I think, I think play them in the first round 689 00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:13,600 Speaker 1: of something crazy like that. And Nate, y'all beating people 690 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:16,560 Speaker 1: three well, you know, but y'all just through my theory 691 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:18,359 Speaker 1: out the window. So let's just go to break as. 692 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:21,919 Speaker 1: Y'all just sorry, that's fine, that's fine. Hopefully it doesn't happen. 693 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 1: I don't want to go research that. It's better to 694 00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:25,600 Speaker 1: come from me and they come from someone on the internet, 695 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:26,880 Speaker 1: because you know, they're not gonna let you live it down. 696 00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 1: They're gonna tell you no, no, no, Shannon, and then 697 00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:30,719 Speaker 1: they're gonna talk about how how you work for the 698 00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:32,920 Speaker 1: organization and you didn't know that the Cowboys did that, 699 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:35,960 Speaker 1: and well you're a fake fan and they should fire you. 700 00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:38,840 Speaker 1: It's their head is big, it's but it doesn't have 701 00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 1: a brain inside of it sto know. That's what they're 702 00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:44,719 Speaker 1: gonna say. I'm not saying you've been hit one or 703 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:47,360 Speaker 1: two minute, two minute times, Conda McGregor. You've been hit. 704 00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:50,799 Speaker 1: It can obviously it happens. I'm just saying I don't 705 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:53,440 Speaker 1: I would like to see the research on how often 706 00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:56,359 Speaker 1: it happens, what the percentage is. Maybe I'll go look 707 00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:59,200 Speaker 1: that up. I noticed right here, man, when you brought 708 00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:03,440 Speaker 1: up that question, what about dak, I'm gonna tell you 709 00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:06,040 Speaker 1: what's gonna have to happen. Man, Wait, wait, and I said, 710 00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:08,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say every show. Hold on, say it after 711 00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 1: the break because we'll talk because I want to talk 712 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,319 Speaker 1: about Dak a little bit more, and then we'll get 713 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:15,640 Speaker 1: into free agents.

All right, Nate, what were you 765 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:16,200 Speaker 1: gonna say about Dad? This is what I believe you know, 766 00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:19,640 Speaker 1: I talked about it two years ago, and I believe 767 00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:25,080 Speaker 1: this right here that if you you can tell me 768 00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:28,520 Speaker 1: that Dak's all day you're a quarterback, you can assure 769 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:33,000 Speaker 1: me that that Dak is not going anywhere. But but 770 00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:37,120 Speaker 1: the true fact is we have not signed him. We 771 00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:41,880 Speaker 1: have franchised him one time, and I've not heard anything 772 00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:46,320 Speaker 1: that makes me believe that we're ready to sign that. 773 00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:50,440 Speaker 1: I think we're closer to franchise, and then again, then 774 00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:53,560 Speaker 1: we are signing it. And then unless I hear something 775 00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:58,280 Speaker 1: by our flagship stations saying breaking news and horns blaring 776 00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:00,239 Speaker 1: and people going up and down iwall one hundred miles 777 00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:04,000 Speaker 1: and I was saying, finally we signed Dad. I'm just 778 00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:06,600 Speaker 1: waiting to see it. How that's I I am waiting. 779 00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:10,080 Speaker 1: I am waiting if you franchise him again. Let's just 780 00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:13,080 Speaker 1: go down this hypothetical road, and you franchise him again. 781 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:17,040 Speaker 1: You're all, You're basically all but saying this is your 782 00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:23,799 Speaker 1: final year here, see you later, bye bye? Right? Yeah, well, 783 00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:28,480 Speaker 1: how close up? How close? And following the history of 784 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:33,160 Speaker 1: these negotiations, how close do we really think he is? 785 00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:35,480 Speaker 1: Coming off of a broke ankle? I mean, I want 786 00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:38,680 Speaker 1: to hear all of y'all percentages, even Chris Beans. Did 787 00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:41,160 Speaker 1: he hang on? We got breaking moods, We just got 788 00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:44,000 Speaker 1: an internal or I guess the media just got sent 789 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:47,440 Speaker 1: a press release. The headline is it's official. I know 790 00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:49,759 Speaker 1: there's been some rumors out there. Dallas Cowboys, ad Joe 791 00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:53,480 Speaker 1: Witt Junior and Aiden I don't even know we're gonna 792 00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:56,360 Speaker 1: fund with this name Aiden dirty to coaching staff and 793 00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:58,960 Speaker 1: promote Harold Nash Junior. Kurt, you may have a little 794 00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:00,279 Speaker 1: bit more on that a little bit later on. I 795 00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:05,239 Speaker 1: just wanted to break in. Nate continued, Now, what are 796 00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:07,919 Speaker 1: you speaking of speaking of Harold Nass Junior. Harold Nash 797 00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:11,080 Speaker 1: Junior who I know and met Harold when I was 798 00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:14,240 Speaker 1: with the New England Patriots. So he comes, he comes 799 00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:20,279 Speaker 1: very highly recommended. So you know, I know what piece? 800 00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:24,879 Speaker 1: What does he do? Nor condition? Strength? Straight? Okay, all right, yeah, 801 00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:27,480 Speaker 1: Now I understand y'all don't want to talk about this. 802 00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:30,239 Speaker 1: This is ugly, and I understand we broke news and 803 00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:33,319 Speaker 1: we want to go to all everybody else. Harold Nash 804 00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:37,160 Speaker 1: Junior ain't nobody compared to that? So what other percentages? 805 00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:39,800 Speaker 1: Once again, like I said, everybody want to beat around 806 00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:43,200 Speaker 1: the question, what hypothetical this and hypothetical that? What do 807 00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:46,160 Speaker 1: you really feel that they're gonna do with that? That's 808 00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:48,239 Speaker 1: a real something that has to happen here for the 809 00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:52,440 Speaker 1: data's cowboys. Yeah, I don't know why they don't. I mean, 810 00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:55,600 Speaker 1: if they keep saying he's the guy, like Jesse said earlier, 811 00:47:55,840 --> 00:47:58,719 Speaker 1: If if Jerry wants somebody, he's gonna figure out a 812 00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:00,080 Speaker 1: way to pay him. So I don't know what the 813 00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:03,120 Speaker 1: hold up is other than you know, we pointed out 814 00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 1: earlier that they're one of the lowest spenders on defense. 815 00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:08,840 Speaker 1: They know they need to upgrade that side, and here 816 00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:10,800 Speaker 1: they're getting ready to spend a bunch more on offense. 817 00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:12,759 Speaker 1: So maybe that's in the back of their minds they 818 00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:15,800 Speaker 1: need to have a more balanced roster. I don't know. 819 00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:18,440 Speaker 1: They put themselves in such a bad position. You know what, 820 00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:21,319 Speaker 1: what was it just two or three years ago, they 821 00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:22,960 Speaker 1: could have had him for like twenty five million, they 822 00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:24,839 Speaker 1: didn't want to pay that. Now they're probably looking at 823 00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:28,920 Speaker 1: at least forty million. UM. I don't know, it's it's 824 00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:32,000 Speaker 1: it's such a bad situation. They've got themselves into it. 825 00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:33,520 Speaker 1: I'm not sure how they get out of it other 826 00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:38,879 Speaker 1: than just swallowing the pill and paying the man otherwise bright, 827 00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:41,080 Speaker 1: I mean, if you're not if you know you're not 828 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:43,440 Speaker 1: gonna if you know you're gonna have to franchise them, 829 00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:45,080 Speaker 1: and you know you're probably not going to get him back. 830 00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:47,920 Speaker 1: Would you just cut bait down, look forward, find somebody 831 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:49,640 Speaker 1: in the draft. I don't know. It's it's such a 832 00:48:49,719 --> 00:48:54,600 Speaker 1: bad position they got. The Cowboys have zero leverage, yeah, 833 00:48:54,800 --> 00:49:01,359 Speaker 1: negative negative leverage. They have negative zero. And especially when 834 00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:05,440 Speaker 1: you look at the contracts. Oh, by the way, speaking 835 00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:09,160 Speaker 1: of Josh Allen, the Cowboys might want to hurry up 836 00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:13,960 Speaker 1: because they might be looking to read up Josh Allen 837 00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:17,440 Speaker 1: pretty soon. So if the Cowboys don't want the market 838 00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:20,080 Speaker 1: to go up again, they may want to jump in 839 00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:23,400 Speaker 1: front of Josh Allen before Buffalo pays him. But when 840 00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:25,920 Speaker 1: you look at the last couple of contracts of you know, 841 00:49:26,120 --> 00:49:28,680 Speaker 1: those who have signed extensions and so on and so forth, 842 00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:32,120 Speaker 1: all those guys have gotten four year deals. All those 843 00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:34,160 Speaker 1: guys have gotten four year deals. And so if the 844 00:49:34,239 --> 00:49:36,839 Speaker 1: Cowboys are stuck on this whole five year deal thing, 845 00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:40,600 Speaker 1: they're not going to win that battle. They aren't. They aren't, 846 00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:44,440 Speaker 1: And if their minds are still not made up, then 847 00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:48,040 Speaker 1: they've done again. They've done a terrible job at setting 848 00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:51,759 Speaker 1: themselves up for a future. Because if you are unsure, 849 00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:56,920 Speaker 1: then you should have made the necessary are taking the 850 00:49:57,000 --> 00:50:00,680 Speaker 1: necessary steps prior to to getting a guy in here 851 00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:04,759 Speaker 1: who can be the heir apparent too Dak Prescott. So 852 00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:08,600 Speaker 1: if you're not sure what you've done now is you've 853 00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:13,040 Speaker 1: you've set yourself back even more because if you think 854 00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:15,319 Speaker 1: for one second you're gonna be able to franchise Dak 855 00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:19,520 Speaker 1: this season and have a chance at signing him next season, 856 00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:23,239 Speaker 1: I have a beach house in Iowa that I would 857 00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:29,360 Speaker 1: love to sell you would love to sell you because 858 00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:32,200 Speaker 1: it ain't happening that that will be the that will 859 00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:35,080 Speaker 1: be the ultimate smack in the face and you can 860 00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:38,800 Speaker 1: all but say your goodbyes to Dak Prescott once the 861 00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:42,560 Speaker 1: season ends. And even if you're looking at you know, 862 00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:45,839 Speaker 1: hopefully trying to you know, sign and trade or something 863 00:50:45,960 --> 00:50:48,120 Speaker 1: like that, he still got to sign, Like, he still 864 00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:50,600 Speaker 1: has to sign a deal. So if there's a team 865 00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:53,480 Speaker 1: that you're looking to trade him for, if you look 866 00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:55,839 Speaker 1: at that and he said, I'm not going there, I'm 867 00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:59,440 Speaker 1: not signing that, then you're in a stalemate and that 868 00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:02,279 Speaker 1: team will eventually have to go somewhere else because you're like, 869 00:51:02,719 --> 00:51:04,360 Speaker 1: why would I sign out to send myself to some 870 00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:06,840 Speaker 1: quarterback potratory and some teams that I gotta wait to 871 00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:12,160 Speaker 1: rebuild again. So the Cowboys have zero percentage negotiation leverage. 872 00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:14,960 Speaker 1: But I still think there's a fifty fifty chance, to 873 00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:18,919 Speaker 1: answer your question, Nate, a fifty fifty chance they still 874 00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:23,239 Speaker 1: get this deal done. The thing the thing with me is, 875 00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:29,799 Speaker 1: I think Jerry and Stephen they're really they're usually really straightforward. 876 00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:31,880 Speaker 1: If they keep telling us this is our guy, this 877 00:51:32,040 --> 00:51:35,200 Speaker 1: is our guy, I have to believe that this is 878 00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:38,000 Speaker 1: they believe this is their guy. And there's got to 879 00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:40,600 Speaker 1: be some behind the scenes maneuvering going on where they're 880 00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:44,000 Speaker 1: trying to they're trying to sell the brand to Dak, 881 00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:47,920 Speaker 1: and they're trying to get a discount for these certain things, 882 00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:51,600 Speaker 1: and and Dak's saying, no, I'm good, I'm going to 883 00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:54,719 Speaker 1: get paid somewhere, whether it's here or not. And he's 884 00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:56,920 Speaker 1: held his ground and he hasn't fallen in love with 885 00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:59,880 Speaker 1: the Star like a lot of players do, and realize that, 886 00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:02,759 Speaker 1: you know, you get in these endorsement deals by being here. 887 00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:05,160 Speaker 1: That's the only thing I can figure out is there 888 00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:09,640 Speaker 1: they're still trying to leverage that again, the Cowboys, you 889 00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:12,680 Speaker 1: lost that leverage battle because guess but Dak has already 890 00:52:12,719 --> 00:52:15,160 Speaker 1: made one hundred million dollars. He's already got this already, 891 00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:18,840 Speaker 1: He's already made it. Right, I'm I'm I'm already on 892 00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:21,400 Speaker 1: Dann and I'm already on PEPSI, I'm already on Torstito's. 893 00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 1: I'm already on the car dealerships. I'm already there, State number. So, 894 00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:28,160 Speaker 1: so saying that that leverage, you know, I got, I 895 00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:30,440 Speaker 1: got the net Jet deal, Like whatever you want to 896 00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:32,440 Speaker 1: talk about is I got, I got I got the 897 00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:36,440 Speaker 1: Hot Sauce deal. So you don't have that leverage anymore. 898 00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:39,719 Speaker 1: You lost that leverage a long time ago when he 899 00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:41,919 Speaker 1: signed his name to those other deals and it said 900 00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:45,480 Speaker 1: I've already made a hundred million dollars. I got literally 901 00:52:45,719 --> 00:52:49,719 Speaker 1: already made one hundred million dollars between my franchise, my 902 00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:52,040 Speaker 1: little four million dollars salary that you gave me the 903 00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:55,560 Speaker 1: first couple of years, and endorsements. What is going on? 904 00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:59,880 Speaker 1: What is happening in the somebody? What's happening? Who's rap 905 00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:07,960 Speaker 1: gifts over there in Florida? I'm sorry, yuh, I know 906 00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:10,160 Speaker 1: here and somebody else? How you gotta black? Yeah, we're 907 00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:12,719 Speaker 1: doing the show. Put down the construction equipment I was 908 00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:15,120 Speaker 1: hoping my best friend, like I said, she's a little slow. 909 00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:18,800 Speaker 1: Daughter came in. I thought Tracy would say, you know, 910 00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:23,239 Speaker 1: he's doing a show. But you know, you know, you 911 00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:25,560 Speaker 1: try to visit people man that you love, but they're 912 00:53:25,560 --> 00:53:29,120 Speaker 1: falling off. I know what that is. Those are the movers. 913 00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:37,920 Speaker 1: Those are the movers. Getting Dak ready to go fellows. 914 00:53:39,640 --> 00:53:44,560 Speaker 1: You know, I just can't fathom us not having a 915 00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:47,960 Speaker 1: quarterback going into next year and then promising the fans 916 00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:54,600 Speaker 1: that we're really trying to win. As a fan, you're like, Okay, 917 00:53:55,440 --> 00:53:59,759 Speaker 1: even if you don't like that, he gives you that 918 00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:04,840 Speaker 1: chance to win him next year. But Nate, what is 919 00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:07,759 Speaker 1: to what what do you not like about him? Like 920 00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:09,600 Speaker 1: that is a thing like like what are we saying? 921 00:54:09,719 --> 00:54:13,520 Speaker 1: Like what? Like what what don't you like about him? 922 00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:16,920 Speaker 1: Like he's he's showing you time at the time of day, 923 00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:19,360 Speaker 1: I'm just trying to figure out, like what is the 924 00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:22,680 Speaker 1: nitpicking point that you don't like about him? Like he 925 00:54:22,800 --> 00:54:26,040 Speaker 1: had what he's not tall enough? Just spending that much 926 00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:27,920 Speaker 1: on one guy, I think that's the only reason, the 927 00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:33,279 Speaker 1: only things you're gonna have to spend that money on 928 00:54:33,320 --> 00:54:35,799 Speaker 1: a quarterback. That's the nature of the business. You don't 929 00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:39,200 Speaker 1: get a bitley for Honda a Core prices. You just don't. 930 00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:42,480 Speaker 1: You don't get a bit ley. You don't get you 931 00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:44,000 Speaker 1: don't get any of those. You don't get a bit 932 00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:49,520 Speaker 1: ley for for Alexis price. It this doesn't happen. It's 933 00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:52,399 Speaker 1: the bitley and that's why it's able to charge that much. 934 00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:56,399 Speaker 1: It's the starting franchise quarterback in the National Football League. 935 00:54:56,600 --> 00:54:59,759 Speaker 1: It is the bitley of all positions. He's gonna land 936 00:54:59,840 --> 00:55:03,239 Speaker 1: him money of all positions, getting that money, whether it's else, 937 00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:06,960 Speaker 1: that's the money he's getting. Do you think they would 938 00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:09,760 Speaker 1: they have would they have any thought too? Okay, instead 939 00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:13,800 Speaker 1: us giving dak forty million, we're gonna spend thirty million 940 00:55:13,880 --> 00:55:18,680 Speaker 1: on our defense and we're gonna resign Andy Dalton and 941 00:55:19,040 --> 00:55:20,919 Speaker 1: then may get you to the playoffs. But you ain't 942 00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:23,920 Speaker 1: gonna beat Aaron Rodgers. M M. You ain't gonna you 943 00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:26,040 Speaker 1: You're not You're not gonna You're not gonna be players 944 00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:29,000 Speaker 1: teams like that. It might get you to the playoffs. 945 00:55:29,680 --> 00:55:31,400 Speaker 1: I mean, hell, we were closely, we were, we were 946 00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:35,359 Speaker 1: down there there this year, we were literally almost there 947 00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:38,840 Speaker 1: this year.

Like I don't like Orlando. I wouldn't 1023 00:59:54,200 --> 00:59:56,320 Speaker 1: spit on Orlando if his button was on fire. So 1024 00:59:56,480 --> 00:59:58,320 Speaker 1: when he goes and pisses like the Super Bowl, I'm like, 1025 00:59:59,200 --> 01:00:01,120 Speaker 1: I'm not a fan of that.

Kurt, you started off, what is your super 1035 01:00:35,800 --> 01:00:39,480 Speaker 1: Bowl match up? Unless it's Laurn Robinson. I wasn't happy 1036 01:00:39,480 --> 01:00:41,400 Speaker 1: about that. That was my thirty two million dollars.

Let's get into that next show. 1038 01:00:44,800 --> 01:00:51,080 Speaker 1: I was happy to give me the Chiefs and the 1039 01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:54,720 Speaker 1: Packers and the Super Bowl saying, what is that?

I think it's gonna be the Packers. 1047 01:01:23,560 --> 01:01:26,840 Speaker 1: And I think because I don't know what's going on 1048 01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:30,360 Speaker 1: with Patrick Mahomes and if he plays, I don't know 1049 01:01:30,720 --> 01:01:32,680 Speaker 1: what kind of shape he's gonna be in. I'm gonna 1050 01:01:32,760 --> 01:01:35,880 Speaker 1: go with the upset. The Bill's gonna confuse him a 1051 01:01:35,920 --> 01:01:38,600 Speaker 1: little bit on defense. It's probably not happening, but I'm 1052 01:01:38,640 --> 01:01:42,200 Speaker 1: gonna call it anyway. So fellas, it's been great.
