0:00:31.920 --> 0:00:38.680
<v Speaker 3>on Dallascowboys dot Com on this Monday, as our zamboni

0:00:39.040 --> 0:00:41.080
<v Speaker 3>is going right on Q.

0:00:41.960 --> 0:00:42.720
<v Speaker 4>One thing week.

0:00:42.880 --> 0:00:47.519
<v Speaker 3>Actually, two things we can count on usually here in Auxnard, California,

0:00:47.840 --> 0:00:51.560
<v Speaker 3>for Cowboys training camp is the sun will be out

0:00:52.040 --> 0:00:58.240
<v Speaker 3>and field blower will be rolling on the morning. Mickey Spagnola,

0:00:58.760 --> 0:01:03.959
<v Speaker 3>Savannah Humo, it's a half a staff here on this

0:01:04.520 --> 0:01:08.000
<v Speaker 3>twenty eighth day in training camp, if you can believe that.

0:01:08.440 --> 0:01:11.280
<v Speaker 3>And for you, young lady, how many more?

0:01:11.920 --> 0:01:15.520
<v Speaker 5>I think I am a little over five weeks past

0:01:15.560 --> 0:01:19.160
<v Speaker 5>the marker here, so's it's been a good thirty five

0:01:19.280 --> 0:01:21.240
<v Speaker 5>something days for me here in Oxnard.

0:01:21.440 --> 0:01:25.839
<v Speaker 3>Well, it's another Chamber of commerce day here in Oxnard,

0:01:25.959 --> 0:01:29.759
<v Speaker 3>sixty five degrees. I don't think there's been a cloud

0:01:29.840 --> 0:01:34.759
<v Speaker 3>out in two days, because yesterday was perfectly blue skies,

0:01:34.800 --> 0:01:36.720
<v Speaker 3>and I bet it was a heck.

0:01:36.600 --> 0:01:38.920
<v Speaker 4>Of a sunset. I know.

0:01:39.080 --> 0:01:44.680
<v Speaker 3>Our team photographer James Smith was headed to the ocean

0:01:44.760 --> 0:01:49.520
<v Speaker 3>last night to get sunset pictures with his professional camera.

0:01:49.640 --> 0:01:52.760
<v Speaker 4>So I can't wait to see what he got.

0:01:52.880 --> 0:01:58.200
<v Speaker 3>But Savannah and I Nate Newton went back home. He

0:01:58.360 --> 0:02:02.360
<v Speaker 3>wasn't going to the game. He didn't have any function there.

0:02:02.840 --> 0:02:05.640
<v Speaker 3>Said he was coming back, but there's no way he

0:02:05.720 --> 0:02:08.679
<v Speaker 3>was going to drive back and forth another time, right,

0:02:09.200 --> 0:02:13.000
<v Speaker 3>and Bill Jones went back after the game after he

0:02:13.040 --> 0:02:16.560
<v Speaker 3>did the game against the Chargers of twenty seven to

0:02:16.760 --> 0:02:21.520
<v Speaker 3>twelve Cowboy Raiders. Excuse me, Savannah looked at me like

0:02:21.600 --> 0:02:25.040
<v Speaker 3>I was goofy and I was against the Raiders in

0:02:25.120 --> 0:02:29.680
<v Speaker 3>Vegas on Saturday. And he went back home after he

0:02:29.720 --> 0:02:33.400
<v Speaker 3>did the game and the pregame show. So it's just

0:02:33.560 --> 0:02:34.760
<v Speaker 3>us too young, lady.

0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:35.960
<v Speaker 6>I know the guys have been busy.

0:02:36.000 --> 0:02:37.480
<v Speaker 5>And you know what, the one person that we have

0:02:37.560 --> 0:02:39.640
<v Speaker 5>not talked about here at training camp. We have not

0:02:40.520 --> 0:02:43.520
<v Speaker 5>gave a nice shout out to Everson Walls back at home.

0:02:43.800 --> 0:02:44.840
<v Speaker 6>We missed you ever since.

0:02:44.880 --> 0:02:47.160
<v Speaker 3>And I talked to him the other day. He called

0:02:47.200 --> 0:02:48.480
<v Speaker 3>and goes, well, what's.

0:02:48.280 --> 0:02:50.640
<v Speaker 4>Up, and I go, well, we're coming home.

0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:55.639
<v Speaker 3>But this is our last migshots here from training camp.

0:02:56.919 --> 0:03:04.120
<v Speaker 3>We'll have a Cowboy practice today at three, three point fifteen.

0:03:05.120 --> 0:03:09.359
<v Speaker 5>It's a yeah, mock mock game, mock game close practice

0:03:10.240 --> 0:03:12.480
<v Speaker 5>that you know, team we'll kind of.

0:03:12.520 --> 0:03:14.760
<v Speaker 3>Use to do as a walk through time and then

0:03:14.840 --> 0:03:18.560
<v Speaker 3>and then Mike McCarthy's press conference today on Dallas Cowboys

0:03:19.000 --> 0:03:22.800
<v Speaker 3>dot Com is scheduled for around three forty five. But

0:03:22.880 --> 0:03:24.560
<v Speaker 3>if they're doing a mock.

0:03:24.440 --> 0:03:26.720
<v Speaker 4>Game at three point fifteen, I bet they stretch it

0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:28.120
<v Speaker 4>out more than thirty minutes.

0:03:28.200 --> 0:03:34.480
<v Speaker 3>Right, So it's an abbreviated day here in Oxnard. But

0:03:35.240 --> 0:03:38.960
<v Speaker 3>we certainly got a lot to talk about. As I mentioned,

0:03:38.960 --> 0:03:42.839
<v Speaker 3>the Cowboys went to Vegas beat the Raiders twenty seven

0:03:42.880 --> 0:03:47.800
<v Speaker 3>to twelve. I thought it was a nice performance by

0:03:47.800 --> 0:03:51.480
<v Speaker 3>the Cowboys since that majority of the first half, the

0:03:51.560 --> 0:03:57.520
<v Speaker 3>Raiders played their starters. The Cowboys basically had their backups

0:03:57.960 --> 0:04:02.760
<v Speaker 3>in for the entire game short of a couple guys.

0:04:04.520 --> 0:04:09.160
<v Speaker 3>Tyler Geyton, who will be the starting left tackle, played

0:04:09.320 --> 0:04:14.400
<v Speaker 3>in the first quarter, Cooper Bbe played in the first quarter,

0:04:14.440 --> 0:04:18.360
<v Speaker 3>and Jayleen Tolbert I think got like nine snaps from

0:04:18.360 --> 0:04:24.400
<v Speaker 3>a starters. On offense, that basically was it, and defensively,

0:04:25.600 --> 0:04:29.200
<v Speaker 3>it was your backups. So I thought it was a

0:04:29.360 --> 0:04:33.160
<v Speaker 3>nice performance after a tough travel day for the Cowboys

0:04:33.320 --> 0:04:35.719
<v Speaker 3>on Friday to get to Vegas.

0:04:36.760 --> 0:04:39.120
<v Speaker 4>But again, these guys.

0:04:38.839 --> 0:04:42.720
<v Speaker 3>Are playing the majority of them for their football lives

0:04:43.040 --> 0:04:46.599
<v Speaker 3>to make this fifty three man roster. The cut doesn't

0:04:46.640 --> 0:04:50.400
<v Speaker 3>take place until August twenty seventh. I believe it is

0:04:50.760 --> 0:04:52.920
<v Speaker 3>Today's the nineteenth.

0:04:53.200 --> 0:04:54.120
<v Speaker 6>Today is the nineteenth.

0:04:54.240 --> 0:04:58.880
<v Speaker 3>Yes, so it's coming. It's right around the corner and

0:04:58.960 --> 0:05:02.720
<v Speaker 3>it'll be after the AS preseason game. So what were

0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:05.359
<v Speaker 3>your impressions. I know you had to watch it on TV,

0:05:05.520 --> 0:05:07.120
<v Speaker 3>but I know you watched it.

0:05:07.160 --> 0:05:07.919
<v Speaker 4>What did you think?

0:05:08.279 --> 0:05:10.560
<v Speaker 5>You know, I have two guys that I want to

0:05:10.600 --> 0:05:13.240
<v Speaker 5>talk about to start this off, and a first one

0:05:13.320 --> 0:05:17.880
<v Speaker 5>is on defense Andrew Booth Junior. I could not keep

0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:21.800
<v Speaker 5>my eyes off him. Seven tackles in the game. He

0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:25.120
<v Speaker 5>was just everywhere on defense and that was one thing

0:05:25.160 --> 0:05:28.600
<v Speaker 5>that I really, you know noticed. I like that, you know,

0:05:28.680 --> 0:05:31.040
<v Speaker 5>he's recent to the team and they put him in,

0:05:31.520 --> 0:05:34.760
<v Speaker 5>you know, right into the game and he was making plays.

0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:37.040
<v Speaker 6>And what was interesting is I was watching.

0:05:36.680 --> 0:05:40.520
<v Speaker 5>The game with with some people and my dad, who

0:05:41.120 --> 0:05:43.760
<v Speaker 5>he follows the Vikings very heavily, and he said, you know,

0:05:44.200 --> 0:05:46.600
<v Speaker 5>I think there's a lot more playing time that this

0:05:46.680 --> 0:05:50.880
<v Speaker 5>guy is seeing Booth specifically right now in this preseason

0:05:50.880 --> 0:05:52.680
<v Speaker 5>game than he did a lot with the Vikings.

0:05:52.720 --> 0:05:55.680
<v Speaker 3>And well, one other reason you saw so much of

0:05:55.760 --> 0:05:58.880
<v Speaker 3>I mean ended up playing forty five snaps. Yeah, and

0:05:58.920 --> 0:06:03.520
<v Speaker 3>he the Cowboy. He's traded Nashaun Wright to the Vikings.

0:06:03.600 --> 0:06:07.480
<v Speaker 3>The Cowboys in return got Andrew Booth.

0:06:09.279 --> 0:06:09.559
<v Speaker 4>Well.

0:06:10.960 --> 0:06:13.559
<v Speaker 3>One of the reasons he made so many tackles though,

0:06:13.960 --> 0:06:20.880
<v Speaker 3>is because his guy was getting receptions. So that that

0:06:21.240 --> 0:06:26.000
<v Speaker 3>fourth and fifth cornerback position is wide open. We know

0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:31.200
<v Speaker 3>the top three, right. Trayvon Diggs finally got into team

0:06:32.880 --> 0:06:38.120
<v Speaker 3>with Pads on last week Deron Bland Jordan Lewis, and

0:06:38.839 --> 0:06:44.520
<v Speaker 3>they had been using Nashaun Wright as the replacement for

0:06:44.640 --> 0:06:49.120
<v Speaker 3>Diggs with the first team early, well all through trading

0:06:49.160 --> 0:06:53.599
<v Speaker 3>cap until Diggs got back in and they figured, you

0:06:53.640 --> 0:06:55.919
<v Speaker 3>know what, it doesn't look like this guy is gonna

0:06:55.920 --> 0:06:59.880
<v Speaker 3>make the team. The Vikings decided, hey, it looks like

0:07:00.120 --> 0:07:01.680
<v Speaker 3>Booth is not going to make the team.

0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:03.000
<v Speaker 4>A second round draft.

0:07:02.839 --> 0:07:07.280
<v Speaker 3>Choice, by the way, and uh uh so they they

0:07:07.720 --> 0:07:12.960
<v Speaker 3>flip guys and we'll see how it takes place. The

0:07:13.040 --> 0:07:18.520
<v Speaker 3>other corner obviously that stood out was Cayman Hall, former

0:07:20.000 --> 0:07:22.240
<v Speaker 3>North Texas football player.

0:07:22.280 --> 0:07:25.200
<v Speaker 4>How about that Mean Green. Did you even know he's there?

0:07:25.400 --> 0:07:26.520
<v Speaker 6>I did. I did.

0:07:27.240 --> 0:07:31.360
<v Speaker 5>He's he's great And I loved watching that pick six.

0:07:31.120 --> 0:07:33.680
<v Speaker 3>From him sixty nine yards I believe it was.

0:07:33.800 --> 0:07:36.000
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, run it back for the touchdown.

0:07:36.080 --> 0:07:40.480
<v Speaker 5>He was he was incredible, And uh, it's it's things

0:07:40.520 --> 0:07:43.720
<v Speaker 5>like that were I appreciate seeing these, you know, kind

0:07:43.720 --> 0:07:46.400
<v Speaker 5>of second string guys that are stepping up into these

0:07:46.440 --> 0:07:49.560
<v Speaker 5>areas to make those plays. I mean, Eric Scott did

0:07:49.560 --> 0:07:52.200
<v Speaker 5>it in the first preseason game as well, So I

0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:54.320
<v Speaker 5>love seeing that from these guys.

0:07:54.360 --> 0:07:55.160
<v Speaker 6>What did you think of him?

0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:55.520
<v Speaker 4>Yeah?

0:07:55.520 --> 0:07:59.680
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely, and Hall ended up playing fifty six snaps good

0:08:00.320 --> 0:08:05.760
<v Speaker 3>basically the entire game. Now, he's had some NFL experience.

0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:12.960
<v Speaker 3>He played in eighteen games with the Chargers twenty twenty one, I.

0:08:12.920 --> 0:08:13.760
<v Speaker 4>Believe it was.

0:08:15.360 --> 0:08:20.680
<v Speaker 3>Over two seasons, got released by the forty nine Ers

0:08:20.720 --> 0:08:24.240
<v Speaker 3>this year and the Cowboys picked him up on waivers.

0:08:24.880 --> 0:08:30.080
<v Speaker 3>And the funny story about him after the game, he

0:08:30.240 --> 0:08:31.240
<v Speaker 3>was asked, when's.

0:08:31.000 --> 0:08:32.679
<v Speaker 4>The last time he had a pick six?

0:08:33.360 --> 0:08:38.160
<v Speaker 3>And it was in twenty nineteen with the Mean Green

0:08:38.840 --> 0:08:44.040
<v Speaker 3>against the Arkansas Razorbacks, and he picked off somebody named

0:08:44.160 --> 0:08:50.240
<v Speaker 3>John Stevens Jones, Stephen Jones' son, Jerry Jones' grandson was

0:08:50.280 --> 0:08:55.520
<v Speaker 3>playing quarterback for Arkansas when the Mean Green defeated Arkansas

0:08:55.800 --> 0:08:58.080
<v Speaker 3>and he had a twenty I think it was a

0:08:58.120 --> 0:09:01.280
<v Speaker 3>twenty one yard interception return a touchdown out of here.

0:09:01.320 --> 0:09:02.120
<v Speaker 4>How about that?

0:09:02.120 --> 0:09:04.719
<v Speaker 6>That is that's a full circle moment right there.

0:09:04.760 --> 0:09:07.560
<v Speaker 5>You come back here to the Cowboys and you're in

0:09:07.600 --> 0:09:10.400
<v Speaker 5>the you're with the family, under the family, and you

0:09:10.520 --> 0:09:11.120
<v Speaker 5>pick the ball.

0:09:11.320 --> 0:09:12.480
<v Speaker 6>I love you love to see that.

0:09:12.480 --> 0:09:14.880
<v Speaker 3>Though he kind of sheepestly pointed out that was his

0:09:15.000 --> 0:09:18.160
<v Speaker 3>last interception, and then somebody realized, oh wait a minute,

0:09:18.160 --> 0:09:22.920
<v Speaker 3>that was against Arkansas and John Stevens Jones. So somebody

0:09:22.920 --> 0:09:24.640
<v Speaker 3>asked him, do you think that's why they picked you

0:09:24.760 --> 0:09:27.160
<v Speaker 3>up on waivers? And it's like, well, he had been

0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:31.000
<v Speaker 3>here for a cup of coffee with the Cowboys in

0:09:31.360 --> 0:09:34.319
<v Speaker 3>twenty twenty and then they waved him in training camp,

0:09:34.679 --> 0:09:38.240
<v Speaker 3>so they kind of knew about them. So anyway, Yeah,

0:09:38.360 --> 0:09:41.760
<v Speaker 3>there's two guys along with Eric Scott. You know, if

0:09:41.760 --> 0:09:45.560
<v Speaker 3>they're going to keep five corners, there's probably two spots open.

0:09:45.640 --> 0:09:49.320
<v Speaker 3>There's three guys that I think so far, actually four

0:09:49.400 --> 0:09:52.760
<v Speaker 3>if Josh Butler has played quite a bit. So we'll

0:09:52.800 --> 0:09:57.000
<v Speaker 3>see where that cornerback spot goes, what was your other

0:09:57.160 --> 0:09:58.480
<v Speaker 3>impression from the game.

0:09:59.080 --> 0:10:02.199
<v Speaker 5>You know, let's but let's start with our favorite, Brandon

0:10:02.200 --> 0:10:06.960
<v Speaker 5>Aubrey with the sixty six yarder. Just also mindful new

0:10:07.080 --> 0:10:11.839
<v Speaker 5>dad here has his baby last week, comes back here

0:10:11.880 --> 0:10:14.480
<v Speaker 5>to training camp. I think he had only practiced one

0:10:14.559 --> 0:10:16.080
<v Speaker 5>day and then it was time to head out to

0:10:16.160 --> 0:10:19.120
<v Speaker 5>Vegas and kicks the sixty six yarder.

0:10:19.600 --> 0:10:23.800
<v Speaker 6>He is just continually or continuously.

0:10:23.360 --> 0:10:27.240
<v Speaker 5>So progressive in his game and how he did last season,

0:10:27.280 --> 0:10:30.760
<v Speaker 5>and it just seems so rinse and repeat like last year.

0:10:30.840 --> 0:10:33.480
<v Speaker 5>He just looked so comfortable out there. He knows what

0:10:33.520 --> 0:10:36.240
<v Speaker 5>he's doing, and you know, we love seeing.

0:10:36.040 --> 0:10:36.520
<v Speaker 4>That from him.

0:10:36.640 --> 0:10:42.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, So a sixty six yard field goal from Butler,

0:10:42.840 --> 0:10:47.880
<v Speaker 3>I mean Butler from Brandon Aubrey. And the funny thing

0:10:48.080 --> 0:10:51.199
<v Speaker 3>was is that's I don't think my column has been

0:10:51.240 --> 0:10:55.319
<v Speaker 3>posted yet on Dallascowboys dot com, but I basically wrote

0:10:55.320 --> 0:11:00.240
<v Speaker 3>it all about him and the funny thing that happened.

0:11:00.120 --> 0:11:00.640
<v Speaker 4>In the game.

0:11:00.720 --> 0:11:05.400
<v Speaker 3>We were doing the pregame show, and we're doing it

0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:08.480
<v Speaker 3>towards the end of the Cowboys bench on the field,

0:11:08.640 --> 0:11:12.439
<v Speaker 3>so it's an hour show before the game starts, and

0:11:12.800 --> 0:11:16.680
<v Speaker 3>we're by the kicking net and I'm sitting there talking

0:11:16.840 --> 0:11:20.080
<v Speaker 3>and I see this hat come kind of in my

0:11:20.200 --> 0:11:23.320
<v Speaker 3>peripheral vision from the right right. Well, I looked and

0:11:23.360 --> 0:11:26.520
<v Speaker 3>it was Brandon Aubrey's hat, and it dawned on me

0:11:27.120 --> 0:11:32.600
<v Speaker 3>that we were in the midst of our second pregame

0:11:32.679 --> 0:11:35.680
<v Speaker 3>show and I'm not sure his name had ever come

0:11:35.760 --> 0:11:38.280
<v Speaker 3>up in either show. It's eight segments of the show,

0:11:38.440 --> 0:11:43.000
<v Speaker 3>sixteen segments, and we never talked about Brandon Aubrey, which

0:11:43.040 --> 0:11:46.080
<v Speaker 3>made me think back to last year that every week

0:11:46.240 --> 0:11:48.040
<v Speaker 3>that was a topic to It.

0:11:48.000 --> 0:11:51.080
<v Speaker 6>Was the topic to talk about nearly every week last week.

0:11:50.960 --> 0:11:54.079
<v Speaker 3>Because they Cowboys had to find a kicker, and they

0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:59.920
<v Speaker 3>decided last year on August seventh, they released Tristan Visk

0:12:01.400 --> 0:12:03.040
<v Speaker 3>and basically said we're.

0:12:02.840 --> 0:12:04.880
<v Speaker 4>Going to see if this kid can do the job.

0:12:06.160 --> 0:12:11.480
<v Speaker 3>Twenty eight years old, had only kicked professionally, only kicked

0:12:11.840 --> 0:12:18.320
<v Speaker 3>footballs for la perious two years with the Birmingham Stallions

0:12:18.440 --> 0:12:21.439
<v Speaker 3>right high school college.

0:12:21.480 --> 0:12:22.560
<v Speaker 4>He was a soccer player.

0:12:22.600 --> 0:12:24.960
<v Speaker 3>We did, you know, the whole history thing, and he

0:12:25.040 --> 0:12:28.200
<v Speaker 3>ends up proving that he can do the job. So

0:12:28.559 --> 0:12:34.880
<v Speaker 3>last year we were rushing around during practices trying to

0:12:35.040 --> 0:12:38.360
<v Speaker 3>chart every kick to see you know how many he

0:12:38.400 --> 0:12:40.760
<v Speaker 3>would make and see if he can.

0:12:40.600 --> 0:12:44.400
<v Speaker 4>Do the job well. This year, it's like, we go

0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:45.160
<v Speaker 4>to watch.

0:12:45.000 --> 0:12:48.720
<v Speaker 3>Him kick to see if he misses any After making

0:12:48.800 --> 0:12:53.360
<v Speaker 3>thirty six of thirty eight last year and had an

0:12:53.559 --> 0:12:58.200
<v Speaker 3>NFL record thirty five consecutive makes to start a career,

0:12:59.240 --> 0:13:03.160
<v Speaker 3>didn't miss a kick until a field goal until the

0:13:03.240 --> 0:13:08.240
<v Speaker 3>final game of the season, where one got blocked and

0:13:08.280 --> 0:13:11.360
<v Speaker 3>one hit up the upright. But those were his only

0:13:11.440 --> 0:13:14.959
<v Speaker 3>two misses, right, So it was like, well, we don't have.

0:13:14.920 --> 0:13:17.440
<v Speaker 4>To pay attention to this guy. He's the kicker.

0:13:19.080 --> 0:13:22.600
<v Speaker 3>And then probably the first time I think maybe he

0:13:22.679 --> 0:13:26.319
<v Speaker 3>had to answer questions was when he left the game

0:13:26.400 --> 0:13:31.120
<v Speaker 3>with four seconds to go against the Rams this preseason

0:13:31.200 --> 0:13:34.199
<v Speaker 3>because he found out his wife was getting ready to

0:13:34.640 --> 0:13:37.000
<v Speaker 3>have the baby the next day and he needed to

0:13:37.040 --> 0:13:40.280
<v Speaker 3>get home, so he left the game early. And I think

0:13:40.640 --> 0:13:44.840
<v Speaker 3>he pointed out he was leaving the stadium at like

0:13:44.960 --> 0:13:48.040
<v Speaker 3>three p forty nine, got to the airport at five

0:13:48.360 --> 0:13:49.760
<v Speaker 3>thirteen or something like that.

0:13:49.800 --> 0:13:52.760
<v Speaker 4>He must have had an escort right yep, and.

0:13:55.080 --> 0:13:59.200
<v Speaker 3>Ended up flying home for the birth of his baby son, Colton.

0:14:00.240 --> 0:14:03.080
<v Speaker 3>And he said after he made the kick that the

0:14:03.120 --> 0:14:07.680
<v Speaker 3>sixty six yarder that that was gonna be his son's

0:14:07.720 --> 0:14:10.920
<v Speaker 3>first football. He's gonna give the football to him. But

0:14:11.120 --> 0:14:16.240
<v Speaker 3>think about sixty six yards. The NFL record right now

0:14:16.280 --> 0:14:20.400
<v Speaker 3>is justin Tucker Baltimore. He kicked a sixty six yard

0:14:20.720 --> 0:14:25.280
<v Speaker 3>in twenty twenty one, but his bounced off the crossbar.

0:14:25.280 --> 0:14:26.320
<v Speaker 4>And went in right.

0:14:26.680 --> 0:14:30.120
<v Speaker 3>Prior to that, the longest field goal in a regular

0:14:30.240 --> 0:14:34.440
<v Speaker 3>season game we're talking was Matt Prater in twenty thirteen.

0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:37.040
<v Speaker 4>He kicked sixty five yards, all right.

0:14:37.320 --> 0:14:41.560
<v Speaker 3>And before that, the longest field goal had been sixty

0:14:41.640 --> 0:14:46.200
<v Speaker 3>three yards, first by Tom Dempsey in nineteen seventy if

0:14:46.200 --> 0:14:51.240
<v Speaker 3>you can believe that. So there's been six guys that

0:14:51.320 --> 0:14:55.400
<v Speaker 3>have kicked a sixty three yarder. The first was Dempsey,

0:14:55.480 --> 0:14:59.160
<v Speaker 3>the last was Brett maher or the Cowboys in twenty nineteen.

0:14:58.920 --> 0:15:00.760
<v Speaker 6>So he unofficially the record.

0:15:00.920 --> 0:15:05.120
<v Speaker 3>So it was unofficially, and I tried searching to see

0:15:05.320 --> 0:15:08.720
<v Speaker 3>if I could find an official preseason record.

0:15:09.240 --> 0:15:12.160
<v Speaker 4>The only thing I saw that came up some guy

0:15:12.240 --> 0:15:14.400
<v Speaker 4>named Ola Kimeron.

0:15:15.320 --> 0:15:20.680
<v Speaker 3>He had a sixty five yarder in training in preseason,

0:15:21.120 --> 0:15:25.400
<v Speaker 3>but it wasn't official. I just couldn't nail it down.

0:15:25.480 --> 0:15:27.520
<v Speaker 3>But that was the only one I could find. So

0:15:28.600 --> 0:15:32.240
<v Speaker 3>I did a strange thing yesterday. I was walking around

0:15:33.000 --> 0:15:35.920
<v Speaker 3>late afternoon on the field and I said, I wonder

0:15:36.400 --> 0:15:40.240
<v Speaker 3>how many steps it would take me for sixty six yards,

0:15:40.600 --> 0:15:42.360
<v Speaker 3>and it took me eighty four steps.

0:15:42.520 --> 0:15:43.960
<v Speaker 4>Eighty four eighty four.

0:15:44.040 --> 0:15:48.200
<v Speaker 3>Well, I don't have a big stride, right, but that's how.

0:15:47.760 --> 0:15:50.120
<v Speaker 4>That's how far sixty I mean, the ball was a

0:15:50.240 --> 0:15:50.840
<v Speaker 4>long time.

0:15:50.880 --> 0:15:51.920
<v Speaker 6>It's like it's out there.

0:15:52.040 --> 0:15:55.360
<v Speaker 3>The ball's put down on the on the opposite forty

0:15:55.360 --> 0:15:58.360
<v Speaker 3>six yard line, right right. And I don't know if

0:15:58.360 --> 0:16:01.760
<v Speaker 3>anybody's ever gone out on the field and looked how

0:16:02.800 --> 0:16:06.280
<v Speaker 3>skinny the width is between the two uprights from that

0:16:06.440 --> 0:16:10.800
<v Speaker 3>far out right. And he nailed it and it wasn't

0:16:10.880 --> 0:16:14.320
<v Speaker 3>like it just got there. To me, it would have

0:16:14.360 --> 0:16:17.200
<v Speaker 3>been good from seventy because it hit the back wall.

0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:20.040
<v Speaker 3>I mean it hit the wall of the stands, the

0:16:20.080 --> 0:16:22.960
<v Speaker 3>first row of the of the stands where the fans

0:16:23.000 --> 0:16:25.840
<v Speaker 3>are sitting, and so that's got to be, you know,

0:16:25.920 --> 0:16:31.320
<v Speaker 3>another four or five yards beyond where the goal posts are.

0:16:32.320 --> 0:16:37.080
<v Speaker 3>But think about this, when Tom Dempsey hit his kick,

0:16:37.640 --> 0:16:41.000
<v Speaker 3>that was back when the goal posts were on the

0:16:41.000 --> 0:16:44.440
<v Speaker 3>goal line. It wasn't on the back line right, So

0:16:44.640 --> 0:16:46.240
<v Speaker 3>his ball was placed down on.

0:16:46.160 --> 0:16:48.120
<v Speaker 4>The thirty seven yard line for.

0:16:49.640 --> 0:16:54.640
<v Speaker 3>His sixty three yard field goal and just in a

0:16:54.880 --> 0:16:58.760
<v Speaker 3>side And that part of my story I was writing

0:16:58.840 --> 0:17:02.800
<v Speaker 3>about is back nineteen seventy when he made the kick.

0:17:03.720 --> 0:17:07.760
<v Speaker 3>The newspaper guys that covered the team, the newspaper reporters

0:17:07.880 --> 0:17:11.119
<v Speaker 3>used to fly on the Cowboys charter to the way games.

0:17:11.720 --> 0:17:14.600
<v Speaker 3>So they're on the flight coming back from New York

0:17:15.359 --> 0:17:19.440
<v Speaker 3>and word got out that Dempsey hit a sixty three

0:17:19.520 --> 0:17:23.120
<v Speaker 3>yard field goal because the previous NFL record was fifty

0:17:23.240 --> 0:17:25.439
<v Speaker 3>six and work.

0:17:25.359 --> 0:17:27.640
<v Speaker 6>That's by yeah a few yeah.

0:17:27.400 --> 0:17:30.120
<v Speaker 3>Right, So it got out that he hit a sixty

0:17:30.119 --> 0:17:34.240
<v Speaker 3>three yard field goal. And the backstory on Tom Dempsey

0:17:34.840 --> 0:17:39.200
<v Speaker 3>is he was born without any toes on his right

0:17:39.280 --> 0:17:43.159
<v Speaker 3>foot or any fingers on his right hand. So he

0:17:43.400 --> 0:17:47.040
<v Speaker 3>had a modified shoe that he had to kick with

0:17:47.200 --> 0:17:50.240
<v Speaker 3>right because back then they're kicking straight on. There was

0:17:50.320 --> 0:17:55.800
<v Speaker 3>no soccer style kicking. And his shoe had a flattened

0:17:55.880 --> 0:18:01.920
<v Speaker 3>front that was rectanglear, so it was like he had

0:18:02.560 --> 0:18:04.160
<v Speaker 3>a kicking shoe on right.

0:18:04.240 --> 0:18:09.320
<v Speaker 4>He wasn't using, obviously his foot his toes because he

0:18:09.320 --> 0:18:10.160
<v Speaker 4>didn't have any.

0:18:10.640 --> 0:18:13.639
<v Speaker 3>So the writers went up to the front of the

0:18:13.680 --> 0:18:17.479
<v Speaker 3>plane to ask Texts Shram, the Cowboys president GM for

0:18:17.480 --> 0:18:21.679
<v Speaker 3>twenty nine years, what he thought of Dempsey's kick, and

0:18:21.760 --> 0:18:26.520
<v Speaker 3>he said, well, he had an unfair advantage, meaning his

0:18:27.200 --> 0:18:31.760
<v Speaker 3>shoe that he was using, right, And so word got

0:18:31.800 --> 0:18:34.359
<v Speaker 3>out to the PR department what Tex said, and they

0:18:34.400 --> 0:18:36.760
<v Speaker 3>went up to him and said, text, do you really

0:18:36.800 --> 0:18:40.240
<v Speaker 3>want to say a guy with no toes that somewhat

0:18:40.280 --> 0:18:42.439
<v Speaker 3>handicap had an unfair advantage?

0:18:42.720 --> 0:18:45.560
<v Speaker 4>That text goes he still did. Yes.

0:18:45.720 --> 0:18:48.880
<v Speaker 3>Well, the next day he got lit up. Oh, I'm

0:18:48.920 --> 0:18:53.280
<v Speaker 3>sure the feedback and he finally apologized.

0:18:53.440 --> 0:18:53.800
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

0:18:53.880 --> 0:18:57.960
<v Speaker 3>But the backstory on this whole thing is by nineteen

0:18:58.080 --> 0:19:04.760
<v Speaker 3>seventy seven, the NFL passed a rule that anybody kicking

0:19:04.760 --> 0:19:08.720
<v Speaker 3>a football had to use a normal kicking shoe. You

0:19:08.800 --> 0:19:12.600
<v Speaker 3>couldn't have an altered, flattened front of the ball.

0:19:12.720 --> 0:19:15.480
<v Speaker 4>So once again Tex was seven years ahead of.

0:19:15.400 --> 0:19:19.520
<v Speaker 3>His time, right, But that was sixty to sixty three yarder.

0:19:19.560 --> 0:19:22.959
<v Speaker 3>That was the funny story behind that.

0:19:23.200 --> 0:19:23.920
<v Speaker 6>So interesting.

0:19:24.600 --> 0:19:29.560
<v Speaker 3>We got off to a kicking start here on mix

0:19:29.640 --> 0:19:32.840
<v Speaker 3>shots and Savannah, what do you think since it's just

0:19:32.880 --> 0:19:35.440
<v Speaker 3>the two of us, I think we have the opportunity

0:19:35.480 --> 0:19:36.960
<v Speaker 3>to take phone calls.

0:19:37.080 --> 0:19:38.879
<v Speaker 6>Let's absolutely take some phone calls.

0:19:38.960 --> 0:19:41.600
<v Speaker 5>If anyone listening would like to call in and ask

0:19:41.800 --> 0:19:44.960
<v Speaker 5>Mickey and I some questions from this last preseason game.

0:19:45.480 --> 0:19:48.280
<v Speaker 5>The training camp call in line is two one four,

0:19:48.600 --> 0:19:53.120
<v Speaker 5>three eight seven, one six five nine Again two one four,

0:19:53.320 --> 0:19:55.800
<v Speaker 5>three eight seven, one six five nine, and we will

<v Speaker 6>I could hear you better than it.

0:23:29.800 --> 0:23:34.440
<v Speaker 4>Kind of drowns. Oh, there we go. How about now

0:23:35.000 --> 0:23:36.520
<v Speaker 4>it's real loud, but we.

0:23:36.480 --> 0:23:38.520
<v Speaker 6>Can we can hear the Zamboni, that's for sure.

0:23:38.600 --> 0:23:40.879
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, now can we hear Brian?

0:23:41.680 --> 0:23:44.800
<v Speaker 6>I have not heard now, but Mickey Wall we're here

0:23:44.880 --> 0:23:45.399
<v Speaker 6>real quick.

0:23:45.920 --> 0:23:49.200
<v Speaker 4>Leave these on, it drowns out. The Zamboni would love.

0:23:49.080 --> 0:23:54.159
<v Speaker 5>To quickly chat about Stefan Gilmour, who is now headed

0:23:54.200 --> 0:23:58.240
<v Speaker 5>to the Vikings. Right that news obviously broke yesterday morning.

0:23:58.359 --> 0:24:01.840
<v Speaker 5>He will be signing with the Minnesota Vikings. But you know,

0:24:02.040 --> 0:24:05.520
<v Speaker 5>outstanding season here with the Cowboys. Wish him all the

0:24:05.520 --> 0:24:09.000
<v Speaker 5>best in Minnesota, And you know, I think that's a

0:24:09.040 --> 0:24:10.040
<v Speaker 5>really great spot for him.

0:24:10.080 --> 0:24:12.239
<v Speaker 3>And I think it was a lot more from what

0:24:12.320 --> 0:24:13.240
<v Speaker 3>I heard than.

0:24:15.160 --> 0:24:17.240
<v Speaker 4>What the Cowboys. Yeah, that's too loud.

0:24:17.880 --> 0:24:21.560
<v Speaker 3>What the Cowboys could pay him, I believe he ended

0:24:21.640 --> 0:24:25.359
<v Speaker 3>up with a seven million dollar base salary with the

0:24:25.400 --> 0:24:29.879
<v Speaker 3>ability to make nine, so he waited it out, and

0:24:30.400 --> 0:24:36.000
<v Speaker 3>obviously Minnesota trading Booth and I don't know that Nashan

0:24:36.040 --> 0:24:39.040
<v Speaker 3>Wright made a big impression on him. So they signed

0:24:39.080 --> 0:24:43.199
<v Speaker 3>a veteran guy to help out. But yeah, and I

0:24:43.240 --> 0:24:46.800
<v Speaker 3>think the Cowboys realized that what he was looking for

0:24:47.119 --> 0:24:52.240
<v Speaker 3>they couldn't afford. Yeah, And so their concern last week

0:24:53.080 --> 0:24:56.320
<v Speaker 3>was on the defensive line, and they made two moves

0:24:57.080 --> 0:25:02.320
<v Speaker 3>to try to get some at least experience there. They

0:25:02.359 --> 0:25:09.520
<v Speaker 3>did sign veteran Jordan Phillips, who's been around the league

0:25:09.640 --> 0:25:14.400
<v Speaker 3>for quite some time. He was with had been with

0:25:14.480 --> 0:25:16.800
<v Speaker 3>the Giants. I said, they signed him. They traded for

0:25:16.880 --> 0:25:21.800
<v Speaker 3>him a couple future draft choices. But the big thing

0:25:22.880 --> 0:25:26.040
<v Speaker 3>with Jordan Phillips, and it is big by the way,

0:25:26.560 --> 0:25:29.600
<v Speaker 3>he is six six three forty one and he's a

0:25:29.640 --> 0:25:34.639
<v Speaker 3>nose tackle. So they needed some balk, not only bulk

0:25:34.720 --> 0:25:38.440
<v Speaker 3>in the middle along with Mozzy Smith and we'll get

0:25:38.440 --> 0:25:42.200
<v Speaker 3>to that in a minute, but also some experience there

0:25:42.200 --> 0:25:46.320
<v Speaker 3>because behind Mozzy was just a bunch of young guys.

0:25:46.880 --> 0:25:51.159
<v Speaker 3>So they made that trade and then I think officially

0:25:52.040 --> 0:25:57.560
<v Speaker 3>they will get signed Carl Lawson, defensive end veteran guys

0:25:57.560 --> 0:26:02.399
<v Speaker 3>been in the league for seven years and uh, just

0:26:02.640 --> 0:26:06.880
<v Speaker 3>knowing that they needed some more. Uh. With Sam Williams

0:26:06.920 --> 0:26:10.439
<v Speaker 3>out now on injured reserve having torn his acl early

0:26:10.520 --> 0:26:13.480
<v Speaker 3>in camp, they just didn't have a lot of experience

0:26:13.560 --> 0:26:19.320
<v Speaker 3>there besides DeMarcus Lawrence. And then you know, while they

0:26:19.359 --> 0:26:22.639
<v Speaker 3>can play Micah Parsons at defensive end, he's not going

0:26:22.680 --> 0:26:26.240
<v Speaker 3>to be out there for sixty snaps a game. Absolutely,

0:26:26.480 --> 0:26:28.719
<v Speaker 3>so they needed somebody. So they got lost and who

0:26:28.800 --> 0:26:30.480
<v Speaker 3>had worked out for him previously?

0:26:31.520 --> 0:26:32.480
<v Speaker 4>It didn't work out.

0:26:32.600 --> 0:26:35.720
<v Speaker 3>I think, Uh, they finally agreed on a number and

0:26:36.440 --> 0:26:37.520
<v Speaker 3>brought him in.

0:26:37.920 --> 0:26:41.600
<v Speaker 4>So, Chris, do we think we have him? Let's see

0:26:42.440 --> 0:26:45.720
<v Speaker 4>you try about now. Guys, Hey, we got you. Thanks

0:26:45.720 --> 0:26:48.439
<v Speaker 4>for being patient with us.

0:26:48.400 --> 0:26:49.000
<v Speaker 2>No worries.

0:26:49.040 --> 0:26:52.240
<v Speaker 12>Well, I'm mad because you stole my you stole my topic,

0:26:52.359 --> 0:26:54.919
<v Speaker 12>But that's okay. I'll ask a different question. But I

0:26:55.040 --> 0:26:58.159
<v Speaker 12>was thinking the same thing that kicker is just a

0:26:58.320 --> 0:27:01.520
<v Speaker 12>non issue this year and last year. I was watching

0:27:01.520 --> 0:27:05.200
<v Speaker 12>the break in an errant kick sailed right over the

0:27:05.280 --> 0:27:10.040
<v Speaker 12>crew's head, and I thought, what a difference this year

0:27:10.119 --> 0:27:12.399
<v Speaker 12>that we just don't have any questions in that area.

0:27:13.119 --> 0:27:16.080
<v Speaker 12>So my question though, for this year, is going to be.

0:27:16.240 --> 0:27:20.159
<v Speaker 12>You know, I think that we have too many running

0:27:20.200 --> 0:27:24.119
<v Speaker 12>backs that are kind of similar skill sets, similar body types,

0:27:24.440 --> 0:27:27.240
<v Speaker 12>And I was wondering if you guys think that gives

0:27:27.359 --> 0:27:31.199
<v Speaker 12>Deuce a little bit of an advantage because all the

0:27:31.240 --> 0:27:34.720
<v Speaker 12>other guys are kind of bigger, stronger, you know, kind

0:27:34.720 --> 0:27:38.240
<v Speaker 12>of that same build, and he's the odd he's the

0:27:38.280 --> 0:27:42.959
<v Speaker 12>odd one out. He's kind of a different, more more scatback, smallish,

0:27:43.119 --> 0:27:46.439
<v Speaker 12>you know, quicker guy. So with that, I'll hang up

0:27:46.440 --> 0:27:47.280
<v Speaker 12>and listen. Thanks.

0:27:47.640 --> 0:27:51.000
<v Speaker 3>Great, that's a great question to start things off because

0:27:51.720 --> 0:27:54.200
<v Speaker 3>he's got a great point there. So you can look

0:27:54.240 --> 0:27:57.960
<v Speaker 3>at the running back position like this. Obviously, Ezekiel ellitt

0:27:58.000 --> 0:28:01.359
<v Speaker 3>and makes the team. The fact that they didn't even

0:28:01.440 --> 0:28:05.280
<v Speaker 3>put Rico Dondell out there in the Raiders game.

0:28:05.640 --> 0:28:06.560
<v Speaker 4>He's on the team.

0:28:07.320 --> 0:28:11.280
<v Speaker 3>Hunter Lepke will be on the team as the full back,

0:28:11.359 --> 0:28:16.280
<v Speaker 3>and as we talked to Mike McCarthy on the pregame show,

0:28:16.720 --> 0:28:20.959
<v Speaker 3>he likes full backs and Lipke can help him as

0:28:21.000 --> 0:28:23.720
<v Speaker 3>a true fill back. He can help him as a

0:28:23.960 --> 0:28:27.360
<v Speaker 3>like an h back, and he also can help him

0:28:27.359 --> 0:28:30.320
<v Speaker 3>as a one back in some of their one back offenses.

0:28:30.440 --> 0:28:31.840
<v Speaker 4>So he's on the team.

0:28:32.000 --> 0:28:35.840
<v Speaker 3>That's three so I think the fourth spot is wide

0:28:35.840 --> 0:28:38.920
<v Speaker 3>open and somebody would have to convince him to keep

0:28:39.000 --> 0:28:43.000
<v Speaker 3>five running backs, which would be a lot. I think

0:28:43.120 --> 0:28:48.440
<v Speaker 3>Malik Davis and Royce Freeman have each had their moments

0:28:49.280 --> 0:28:54.000
<v Speaker 3>in training camp, and then Deuce finally shows up in

0:28:54.080 --> 0:28:54.480
<v Speaker 3>the game.

0:28:54.960 --> 0:29:01.720
<v Speaker 4>I believe he ended up with what yards yeah average.

0:29:01.440 --> 0:29:06.400
<v Speaker 3>And he had missed a full week of training camp

0:29:06.480 --> 0:29:09.960
<v Speaker 3>prior with a hamstring strain, so he kind of really

0:29:09.960 --> 0:29:13.920
<v Speaker 3>got behind the eight ball, got his opportunity late last week,

0:29:14.120 --> 0:29:16.440
<v Speaker 3>and then got in the game against the Raiders. And

0:29:16.520 --> 0:29:19.880
<v Speaker 3>I think Brian's right. He's a different type of running back.

0:29:21.200 --> 0:29:25.120
<v Speaker 3>Obviously he's smaller, we know that, but he showed in

0:29:25.200 --> 0:29:30.280
<v Speaker 3>the game his quickness, his ability to change directions in

0:29:30.360 --> 0:29:33.360
<v Speaker 3>a moment, and he had a couple runs like that

0:29:33.440 --> 0:29:36.040
<v Speaker 3>in the game, and it's like, oh, that's the deuced

0:29:36.320 --> 0:29:37.240
<v Speaker 3>that they drafted.

0:29:37.360 --> 0:29:38.960
<v Speaker 4>That's the guy they were looking for.

0:29:39.080 --> 0:29:42.760
<v Speaker 3>Now it's a matter of you know, what these guys

0:29:42.800 --> 0:29:47.240
<v Speaker 3>can help on special teams because last year the games

0:29:47.440 --> 0:29:49.360
<v Speaker 3>usually that he was inactive, they.

0:29:49.280 --> 0:29:51.240
<v Speaker 4>Just looked at it. It goes, well, what else can

0:29:51.240 --> 0:29:51.920
<v Speaker 4>he do for us?

0:29:52.200 --> 0:29:56.719
<v Speaker 3>Because other running backs could go down and cover punts, kickoffs,

0:29:57.760 --> 0:30:00.800
<v Speaker 3>but this year with the kickoff rule, chain means the

0:30:00.880 --> 0:30:04.520
<v Speaker 3>coverages that you need a different type of player, right absolutely,

0:30:05.320 --> 0:30:09.160
<v Speaker 3>So I think he's got an opportunity now he's got

0:30:09.160 --> 0:30:12.560
<v Speaker 3>one more preseason game to kind of prove what he

0:30:12.560 --> 0:30:13.000
<v Speaker 3>can do.

0:30:13.240 --> 0:30:16.760
<v Speaker 4>But again, I think Brian's right.

0:30:16.840 --> 0:30:20.400
<v Speaker 3>So I think it comes down to three guys basically,

0:30:20.480 --> 0:30:23.600
<v Speaker 3>if they're going to keep for Deuce, Royce Freeman, the veteran,

0:30:24.040 --> 0:30:27.560
<v Speaker 3>and the Lake Davis, who I thought had a nice

0:30:27.600 --> 0:30:29.000
<v Speaker 3>week of practice last week.

0:30:29.360 --> 0:30:31.760
<v Speaker 5>I do want to mention one thing that I had

0:30:31.760 --> 0:30:34.719
<v Speaker 5>looked up prior to the show today. So when it

0:30:34.760 --> 0:30:40.000
<v Speaker 5>comes to this new kickoff role and these returners right now,

0:30:41.240 --> 0:30:44.440
<v Speaker 5>last week, after the first week of preseason, it was

0:30:44.480 --> 0:30:46.600
<v Speaker 5>an eighty percent return rate.

0:30:47.440 --> 0:30:50.920
<v Speaker 6>Last year twenty two percent. That's a huge difference.

0:30:50.920 --> 0:30:53.440
<v Speaker 5>So I think that you're going to see so much

0:30:53.480 --> 0:30:56.320
<v Speaker 5>more returns coming into this season because of the new

0:30:56.400 --> 0:30:59.080
<v Speaker 5>kickoff role. And this is where an area where you

0:30:59.120 --> 0:31:02.040
<v Speaker 5>can see multiple different guys. Duce Vahan might be one

0:31:02.040 --> 0:31:05.280
<v Speaker 5>of those guys. You saw these explosiveness plays from him

0:31:05.320 --> 0:31:06.040
<v Speaker 5>in the run game.

0:31:06.200 --> 0:31:07.560
<v Speaker 6>I want to see also what he can do as

0:31:07.560 --> 0:31:08.120
<v Speaker 6>a returner.

0:31:08.160 --> 0:31:09.560
<v Speaker 5>So that's one thing I kind of want to see

0:31:09.560 --> 0:31:12.600
<v Speaker 5>if they're going to utilize him in any way in

0:31:12.640 --> 0:31:13.600
<v Speaker 5>that area as well.

0:31:13.720 --> 0:31:19.200
<v Speaker 3>This last game they were using primarily Malik Davis and

0:31:19.400 --> 0:31:24.320
<v Speaker 3>t Billy Johnson, So there's different ways they can do that.

0:31:24.560 --> 0:31:29.480
<v Speaker 3>Because if you think you can anticipate where the kickers

0:31:29.600 --> 0:31:32.880
<v Speaker 3>kicking the ball left or right, whatever, you can kind

0:31:32.920 --> 0:31:36.640
<v Speaker 3>of put your formation that way. Your top returner, which

0:31:36.640 --> 0:31:41.360
<v Speaker 3>we're assuming is Cavante Turpin, and the second guy can

0:31:41.400 --> 0:31:44.160
<v Speaker 3>be more of a blocking guy. You could have an

0:31:44.200 --> 0:31:47.960
<v Speaker 3>extra blocker, so you could put a bigger running back

0:31:48.000 --> 0:31:52.280
<v Speaker 3>back right to ability to return, but also the ability

0:31:52.520 --> 0:31:55.160
<v Speaker 3>to get you an extra blocker. So it'd be interesting

0:31:55.240 --> 0:31:58.920
<v Speaker 3>to see how that works out. Do we have another phone?

0:31:58.960 --> 0:32:03.200
<v Speaker 6>We do? We do in Weatherford, Texas. How are you today, Larry.

0:32:04.120 --> 0:32:04.920
<v Speaker 14>I'm doing fine.

0:32:05.520 --> 0:32:07.160
<v Speaker 4>Thanks for joining us.

0:32:08.440 --> 0:32:11.040
<v Speaker 14>Well, I appreciate it. I got a question that's bothered

0:32:11.080 --> 0:32:14.320
<v Speaker 14>me for quite some time. You know, the team can't

0:32:14.320 --> 0:32:20.560
<v Speaker 14>seem to resign back or CD or they're worried about

0:32:21.560 --> 0:32:28.120
<v Speaker 14>about the defensive end slash linebackers. Yes, and I'm wondering

0:32:28.720 --> 0:32:32.040
<v Speaker 14>why do the players and make up the NFL Players

0:32:32.120 --> 0:32:38.560
<v Speaker 14>Association approve the agreement that they have with the owners.

0:32:39.200 --> 0:32:43.240
<v Speaker 14>Given the fact that the more these three or so

0:32:43.520 --> 0:32:46.920
<v Speaker 14>skilled players that you have on each team make the

0:32:47.080 --> 0:32:51.200
<v Speaker 14>less each one of those other players that are make

0:32:51.320 --> 0:32:56.360
<v Speaker 14>up the line share of the teams in the league,

0:32:56.920 --> 0:32:59.520
<v Speaker 14>why would they agree to that? Looks to me like

0:32:59.560 --> 0:33:03.080
<v Speaker 14>it would more sense to say, Okay, the top three

0:33:04.200 --> 0:33:09.160
<v Speaker 14>uh highest earners can't uh the sign up for any

0:33:09.200 --> 0:33:14.000
<v Speaker 14>more than x percent of a cap, and that would

0:33:15.240 --> 0:33:18.680
<v Speaker 14>so you say, shall we say share, spread the spread

0:33:18.720 --> 0:33:21.480
<v Speaker 14>the wealth around to the to all the players.

0:33:21.600 --> 0:33:26.520
<v Speaker 3>You know, that's a great question, and appreciate it. But uh,

0:33:27.400 --> 0:33:31.360
<v Speaker 3>the nfl PA when they do the CBA, UH, they're

0:33:31.440 --> 0:33:36.240
<v Speaker 3>just basically looking out for trying to get the biggest contracts.

0:33:35.640 --> 0:33:37.160
<v Speaker 4>They can for their players.

0:33:37.200 --> 0:33:41.400
<v Speaker 3>And they understand, Uh, that's life, right, I mean, that's

0:33:41.640 --> 0:33:45.000
<v Speaker 3>the business world out there. Uh. And the business world

0:33:45.560 --> 0:33:49.360
<v Speaker 3>only has if they do a self imposed salary cap.

0:33:49.520 --> 0:33:51.520
<v Speaker 3>There is a salary cap in the NFL.

0:33:52.160 --> 0:33:55.440
<v Speaker 4>Uh. And your your your thought is is really good.

0:33:55.480 --> 0:34:00.000
<v Speaker 3>And I've seen some discussion people thinking that they should

0:34:00.120 --> 0:34:04.360
<v Speaker 3>allow the quarterbacks to make what they can make and

0:34:04.400 --> 0:34:07.400
<v Speaker 3>not count against the salary cap, like give a one

0:34:07.480 --> 0:34:11.120
<v Speaker 3>person kind of freebie against the cap.

0:34:12.080 --> 0:34:14.080
<v Speaker 4>But again, in.

0:34:14.680 --> 0:34:18.000
<v Speaker 3>This free world, you kind of make what you can,

0:34:18.280 --> 0:34:21.640
<v Speaker 3>and I don't think that they would, you know, do

0:34:21.719 --> 0:34:24.120
<v Speaker 3>that and say, well, these three guys can only have

0:34:24.280 --> 0:34:25.680
<v Speaker 3>this percentage.

0:34:25.120 --> 0:34:26.399
<v Speaker 6>Of the cap out right.

0:34:26.480 --> 0:34:30.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but it's a good thought. And I kind of

0:34:30.080 --> 0:34:34.040
<v Speaker 3>like the idea of having an exclusion of the quarterback

0:34:34.280 --> 0:34:38.040
<v Speaker 3>because we know what quarterbacks are making and that percentage

0:34:38.080 --> 0:34:40.200
<v Speaker 3>of the cap is way out of whack with all

0:34:40.560 --> 0:34:44.719
<v Speaker 3>basically the other players. So, you know, Jerry was asked

0:34:44.719 --> 0:34:48.000
<v Speaker 3>a question about CD. He still seems confident they'll get

0:34:48.040 --> 0:34:52.719
<v Speaker 3>him in. I am always confident that these things get

0:34:52.760 --> 0:34:56.120
<v Speaker 3>done before the first game of the season. No one's

0:34:56.160 --> 0:34:59.920
<v Speaker 3>gonna He's under contract, so that's what everybody understands, got

0:35:00.040 --> 0:35:03.360
<v Speaker 3>to understand. And he's scheduled to make one million dollars

0:35:03.400 --> 0:35:07.880
<v Speaker 3>a week for eighteen weeks. So it's a guaranteed seventeen

0:35:07.920 --> 0:35:10.600
<v Speaker 3>point nine to nine million dollar deal that he has.

0:35:11.719 --> 0:35:14.800
<v Speaker 4>And I don't know that which is a current contract.

0:35:15.480 --> 0:35:17.799
<v Speaker 5>We have to remind everybody that he is still on

0:35:18.120 --> 0:35:19.200
<v Speaker 5>a contract right now.

0:35:19.320 --> 0:35:21.839
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, absolutely, And I don't know.

0:35:22.320 --> 0:35:26.080
<v Speaker 3>I mean, if there's many red blooded Americans out there

0:35:26.160 --> 0:35:29.360
<v Speaker 3>that would give up one million dollars a week for

0:35:29.480 --> 0:35:33.759
<v Speaker 3>a cause, So we'll we'll kind of keep monitoring that

0:35:33.960 --> 0:35:36.880
<v Speaker 3>and see where that goes, and we probably need to

0:35:37.320 --> 0:35:40.799
<v Speaker 3>take a break. We appreciate the calls. It's just me

0:35:40.960 --> 0:35:42.200
<v Speaker 3>and old Savannah here.

0:35:42.280 --> 0:35:42.759
<v Speaker 4>That's it.

0:35:43.120 --> 0:35:44.799
<v Speaker 6>We'll have one when we get back. We have a

0:35:44.840 --> 0:35:47.440
<v Speaker 6>caller on the line.

0:35:46.600 --> 0:35:49.279

0:38:33.239 --> 0:38:36.200

<v Speaker 3>Along, So I got to remember to put mine up.

0:38:42.239 --> 0:38:47.399
<v Speaker 3>Final segment here on mix shots in Oxnard, California.

0:38:47.440 --> 0:38:51.799
<v Speaker 4>Another beautiful California day. This is why when you come

0:38:51.880 --> 0:38:55.920
<v Speaker 4>here you don't want to leave. It's just the gorgeous day, Sonny.

0:38:56.200 --> 0:38:57.800
<v Speaker 4>It'll be perfectly sunny.

0:38:58.200 --> 0:39:01.280
<v Speaker 3>I bet the high today will be about seventy three

0:39:01.440 --> 0:39:03.040
<v Speaker 3>degrees something like that.

0:39:03.440 --> 0:39:06.879
<v Speaker 4>And it's just the same thing every day.

0:39:06.960 --> 0:39:09.920
<v Speaker 3>But as I said, this is our last mix shots

0:39:09.960 --> 0:39:15.799
<v Speaker 3>from training camp. Cowboys will practice four more times if

0:39:15.800 --> 0:39:22.200
<v Speaker 3>we include the walkthrough here today and head out on Thursday.

0:39:22.440 --> 0:39:26.200
<v Speaker 3>We need to touch one thing, the Mossy Smith scare.

0:39:26.920 --> 0:39:32.560
<v Speaker 3>On Friday of last week, he had an allergic reaction

0:39:32.960 --> 0:39:36.400
<v Speaker 3>just as the buses were going to pull out to

0:39:36.480 --> 0:39:43.920
<v Speaker 3>head to lax to fly to Vegas. He had a

0:39:44.000 --> 0:39:50.960
<v Speaker 3>reaction to something that was in a protein shake, and

0:39:51.200 --> 0:39:55.000
<v Speaker 3>they really scared him until they figured out what it happened.

0:39:55.960 --> 0:40:00.680
<v Speaker 3>So that, you know, eliminated him from playing in the game.

0:40:01.560 --> 0:40:05.319
<v Speaker 3>But he should it is fine and should be able

0:40:05.360 --> 0:40:10.279
<v Speaker 3>to resume practicing. But it had been a scary situation

0:40:11.440 --> 0:40:17.120
<v Speaker 3>right there, and so so well, we'll see if he's

0:40:17.320 --> 0:40:20.239
<v Speaker 3>I'm sure he's good enough to go through the mock game,

0:40:20.280 --> 0:40:24.760
<v Speaker 3>which is basically a walk through. Okay, we have another caller,

0:40:25.040 --> 0:40:29.400
<v Speaker 3>and I want to preface this with that this guy

0:40:29.719 --> 0:40:35.000
<v Speaker 3>has been listening to our podcast. It seems like forever

0:40:35.200 --> 0:40:40.439
<v Speaker 3>first on Talking cow on Talking Cowboys. Uh, and I'm

0:40:40.440 --> 0:40:43.680
<v Speaker 3>glad to hear he's still listening to me on mix shots.

0:40:44.680 --> 0:40:49.800
<v Speaker 3>It's Nebby from Silver Springs, Maryland. Nebbie, how the heck

0:40:49.880 --> 0:40:50.160
<v Speaker 3>are you?

0:40:52.440 --> 0:41:00.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing well and Mickey, I gotta tell you, it's

0:41:00.200 --> 0:41:03.240
<v Speaker 2>great uh to talk.

0:41:03.120 --> 0:41:06.720
<v Speaker 13>To you again, my man, it's been years.

0:41:07.600 --> 0:41:11.000
<v Speaker 15>And Savannah, it's a pleasure to talk.

0:41:10.800 --> 0:41:13.799
<v Speaker 2>To you for the very first time.

0:41:15.080 --> 0:41:16.359
<v Speaker 6>You uh uh.

0:41:18.680 --> 0:41:19.040
<v Speaker 2>Listen.

0:41:19.480 --> 0:41:19.600
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

0:41:20.120 --> 0:41:25.600
<v Speaker 2>I was wondering, uh, are you guys as excited about

0:41:26.239 --> 0:41:28.640
<v Speaker 2>Cooper bb as I am?

0:41:29.280 --> 0:41:32.960
<v Speaker 13>Because I really think he can help us out.

0:41:33.200 --> 0:41:42.560
<v Speaker 2>Uh because based on what I've read about him, Uh,

0:41:43.040 --> 0:41:54.560
<v Speaker 2>he can just mall uh uh whoever is uh across him?

0:41:54.960 --> 0:42:05.520
<v Speaker 13>And what do you think are the chances that Cooper Bebe.

0:42:06.800 --> 0:42:14.200
<v Speaker 15>Is our starting center when we play in Cleveland against

0:42:14.239 --> 0:42:26.799
<v Speaker 15>the Browns in twenty days. I take care, Thank you

0:42:26.920 --> 0:42:29.680
<v Speaker 15>so much for being patient with me, and have a

0:42:29.719 --> 0:42:30.360
<v Speaker 15>great week.

0:42:30.480 --> 0:42:30.960
<v Speaker 13>Bye.

0:42:32.239 --> 0:42:32.560
<v Speaker 6>So much.

0:42:32.719 --> 0:42:35.319
<v Speaker 3>Great to hear from Nebbe once again. As a matter

0:42:35.360 --> 0:42:37.279
<v Speaker 3>of fact, a couple of times when we've gone to

0:42:38.360 --> 0:42:42.840
<v Speaker 3>games when Cowboys are playing Washington, he has made the

0:42:42.880 --> 0:42:46.759
<v Speaker 3>effort to come to the team hotel and visit with us,

0:42:46.840 --> 0:42:50.919
<v Speaker 3>so taking pictures with Nebby and it's great to hear

0:42:50.960 --> 0:42:51.359
<v Speaker 3>from him.

0:42:51.440 --> 0:42:53.480
<v Speaker 4>Okay, Cooper, bb, let's do it.

0:42:54.480 --> 0:42:57.160
<v Speaker 3>I think he's got a real chance to be the

0:42:57.239 --> 0:43:01.040
<v Speaker 3>starting center. I think the competition is not over yet

0:43:01.080 --> 0:43:04.960
<v Speaker 3>with brock Hoffman, but I think the Cowboys just like

0:43:05.080 --> 0:43:08.759
<v Speaker 3>his strength at the center position, and as long as

0:43:08.840 --> 0:43:13.920
<v Speaker 3>he can continue to show that he can command the

0:43:13.960 --> 0:43:17.520
<v Speaker 3>line of scrimmage, meaning making the calls for the blocking

0:43:17.560 --> 0:43:22.560
<v Speaker 3>assignments to recognize what's going on, and the fact that

0:43:23.040 --> 0:43:25.839
<v Speaker 3>he's got it seems the snaps down I think people

0:43:25.920 --> 0:43:27.400
<v Speaker 3>have probably seen online.

0:43:27.480 --> 0:43:28.560
<v Speaker 4>I don't know what it was on.

0:43:29.600 --> 0:43:32.960
<v Speaker 3>If it was on Twitter or x or whatever you

0:43:32.960 --> 0:43:36.000
<v Speaker 3>want to call it, snapchat or whatever. It showed him

0:43:36.040 --> 0:43:38.440
<v Speaker 3>snapping the ball Instagram.

0:43:38.560 --> 0:43:39.200
<v Speaker 4>Is that what it was?

0:43:39.520 --> 0:43:41.800
<v Speaker 6>Bill tweeted it, Yeah.

0:43:41.960 --> 0:43:44.880
<v Speaker 3>Okay, that he was snapping the ball to his mom

0:43:44.920 --> 0:43:48.600
<v Speaker 3>in the backyard and he was snapping to who had

0:43:48.600 --> 0:43:51.480
<v Speaker 3>every teammate during the rookie mini camp when they were

0:43:51.480 --> 0:43:54.440
<v Speaker 3>staying at the hotel, he would go into the ballroom

0:43:54.520 --> 0:43:57.120
<v Speaker 3>and he had a ball and he practiced his snaps,

0:43:57.719 --> 0:44:01.440
<v Speaker 3>So I think he's played well. I think they think

0:44:01.960 --> 0:44:05.799
<v Speaker 3>he's played well. He ended up with just twenty three

0:44:05.880 --> 0:44:09.680
<v Speaker 3>snaps in the game, but started his first game, so

0:44:09.800 --> 0:44:12.799
<v Speaker 3>I think there's a good chance. And Nebby's right. He

0:44:12.920 --> 0:44:15.839
<v Speaker 3>said that you know, he thinks he's a maler, and

0:44:15.880 --> 0:44:19.640
<v Speaker 3>he is. When they had him practicing with the first

0:44:19.719 --> 0:44:24.279
<v Speaker 3>team this past week. I noticed that it was the

0:44:24.280 --> 0:44:28.000
<v Speaker 3>scrimmage against the Rams, Yes, and he was at center

0:44:28.640 --> 0:44:32.239
<v Speaker 3>and at he snapped the ball and he first went

0:44:32.280 --> 0:44:35.160
<v Speaker 3>to his right to help out the guard take out

0:44:35.239 --> 0:44:38.400
<v Speaker 3>the defensive tackle. He came off of that block and

0:44:38.440 --> 0:44:41.239
<v Speaker 3>went and got the linebacker. And that's what I saw

0:44:41.320 --> 0:44:44.919
<v Speaker 3>from him at K State that I was impressed with

0:44:45.000 --> 0:44:45.640
<v Speaker 3>that he.

0:44:45.640 --> 0:44:47.680
<v Speaker 4>Could get to the second level right.

0:44:48.160 --> 0:44:51.120
<v Speaker 3>And if I remember when he did the interview after

0:44:51.160 --> 0:44:54.120
<v Speaker 3>the draft, he said his favorite thing was to dirt people,

0:44:54.520 --> 0:44:56.960
<v Speaker 3>meaning black guys can't put him in the dirt. Now,

0:44:57.239 --> 0:44:59.640
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, you know, if that's gonna happen in

0:44:59.680 --> 0:45:04.719
<v Speaker 3>the end too many times, but he's active, so we'll

0:45:04.760 --> 0:45:07.920
<v Speaker 3>see how it plays out. That's a good observation from Nebbe,

0:45:08.280 --> 0:45:12.600
<v Speaker 3>who watches and listens and reads everything he can about

0:45:12.600 --> 0:45:13.320
<v Speaker 3>the Cowboys.

0:45:13.360 --> 0:45:14.680
<v Speaker 4>Your impression of BB.

0:45:15.000 --> 0:45:17.719
<v Speaker 5>You know, it's interesting these first couple of weeks of

0:45:17.880 --> 0:45:18.600
<v Speaker 5>training camp.

0:45:18.640 --> 0:45:21.680
<v Speaker 6>You know, the conversation was really about brock.

0:45:21.440 --> 0:45:24.759
<v Speaker 5>Kaufman and how he was taking all the snaps with

0:45:24.800 --> 0:45:29.160
<v Speaker 5>the first team, and I really like seeing how they're

0:45:29.560 --> 0:45:31.480
<v Speaker 5>finally utilizing Cooper Bebe.

0:45:31.600 --> 0:45:33.120
<v Speaker 6>I think they're starting to see.

0:45:33.200 --> 0:45:35.759
<v Speaker 5>What he has and the drive in him, and so

0:45:35.880 --> 0:45:38.799
<v Speaker 5>seeing him as a starter out there. I feel like

0:45:38.840 --> 0:45:42.600
<v Speaker 5>the conversation has now gone almost fifty to fifty. Like

0:45:42.640 --> 0:45:45.719
<v Speaker 5>you said, the competition here between brock Hoffman and Cooper BB,

0:45:45.880 --> 0:45:46.520
<v Speaker 5>it's not over.

0:45:47.000 --> 0:45:48.520
<v Speaker 6>I think we still have a little bit of time

0:45:48.600 --> 0:45:50.080
<v Speaker 6>left here during training camp.

0:45:50.120 --> 0:45:52.759
<v Speaker 5>We have one more preseason game and then some practices

0:45:52.800 --> 0:45:56.000
<v Speaker 5>next week as well, But the competition is.

0:45:56.120 --> 0:45:57.400
<v Speaker 6>Very much open.

0:45:57.640 --> 0:46:01.319
<v Speaker 5>I think brock Hoffman he has a little bit more experience,

0:46:01.360 --> 0:46:03.080
<v Speaker 5>which is why I can see they may be a

0:46:03.120 --> 0:46:05.319
<v Speaker 5>little bit more comfortable with him, but I think they're

0:46:05.360 --> 0:46:07.840
<v Speaker 5>starting to see what Cooper Beb has and so I

0:46:07.840 --> 0:46:10.160
<v Speaker 5>think it's everything for him to fight for at this point.

0:46:10.280 --> 0:46:13.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's one thing that has to be finalized yet,

0:46:13.960 --> 0:46:17.239
<v Speaker 3>because it's still a competition. I thought it was kind

0:46:17.239 --> 0:46:20.120
<v Speaker 3>of neat that Deuce when he was in the game.

0:46:20.480 --> 0:46:22.960
<v Speaker 3>He remarked afterwards, he said he was in the huddle

0:46:23.680 --> 0:46:27.359
<v Speaker 3>and he heards Bebee's voice and he goes, oh, it's

0:46:27.440 --> 0:46:31.000
<v Speaker 3>like old times K State they played together, and he

0:46:31.080 --> 0:46:34.320
<v Speaker 3>said it's been been a while since he'd been in

0:46:34.360 --> 0:46:36.480
<v Speaker 3>the huddle with the Cooper Bebe.

0:46:36.719 --> 0:46:37.360
<v Speaker 6>I have one.

0:46:37.360 --> 0:46:39.799
<v Speaker 5>Added note that I actually saw, which I thought was

0:46:39.920 --> 0:46:43.360
<v Speaker 5>amazing was the Bebee family have They've been going to

0:46:43.400 --> 0:46:47.160
<v Speaker 5>the preseason games to watch Cooper and they ended up

0:46:47.200 --> 0:46:50.160
<v Speaker 5>actually being with Deuce Vaughn's family at the game. So

0:46:50.200 --> 0:46:52.200
<v Speaker 5>they all took a phote together and I'm like, look,

0:46:52.239 --> 0:46:53.200
<v Speaker 5>it's all the K State.

0:46:53.719 --> 0:46:54.960
<v Speaker 6>They're all there to support it.

0:46:55.040 --> 0:47:00.000
<v Speaker 3>A Wildcat reunion here, right, and we're just about done him.

0:47:00.239 --> 0:47:04.040
<v Speaker 3>But one other note with Tyler, Geiton did get the

0:47:04.080 --> 0:47:10.160
<v Speaker 3>start at left tackle, so there's you know, the Cowboys.

0:47:10.600 --> 0:47:13.920
<v Speaker 3>He's gonna be the starter. Believe me, he needed to

0:47:13.960 --> 0:47:17.640
<v Speaker 3>be the starter, right with Chuma Doga going down. Earl

0:47:17.680 --> 0:47:22.040
<v Speaker 3>Bostik was sort of, you know, a backup candidate. Well,

0:47:22.680 --> 0:47:24.919
<v Speaker 3>those are two things that they've got to work out.

0:47:25.040 --> 0:47:28.839
<v Speaker 3>So between Hoffman and bb they've got a starter, and

0:47:28.880 --> 0:47:32.920
<v Speaker 3>they've got a swing guy that can play center and guard,

0:47:33.120 --> 0:47:35.520
<v Speaker 3>so that's taken care of. One of the things they've

0:47:35.560 --> 0:47:39.840
<v Speaker 3>got to find is a backup swing tackle now because

0:47:40.160 --> 0:47:45.080
<v Speaker 3>there's not much experience behind Tyler Geiton. So they got

0:47:45.120 --> 0:47:46.960
<v Speaker 3>to work that out and they'll probably keep their eye

0:47:46.960 --> 0:47:50.800
<v Speaker 3>in the waiver wire. Thank you guys for calling helping

0:47:50.880 --> 0:47:54.000
<v Speaker 3>us out. The third man, right, not the twelfth man,

0:47:54.080 --> 0:47:58.839
<v Speaker 3>the third man mix Shots appreciate you. Will holler back

0:47:59.000 --> 0:48:04.080
<v Speaker 3>at you next Monday from back at the start, we

0:48:04.200 --> 0:48:05.640
<v Speaker 3>get back home crazy.

0:48:05.680 --> 0:48:07.600
<v Speaker 6>We're going back to Texas.

0:48:07.560 --> 0:48:08.719
