1 00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:02,520 Speaker 1: The following. 2 00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:04,560 Speaker 2: He is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and 3 00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:06,080 Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. 4 00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:16,240 Speaker 3: Cowboys This these Cowboys storylines with Nick Eatman. 5 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:22,240 Speaker 1: Let's go at this time for Cowboys storyline. I am 6 00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:25,960 Speaker 1: Nick Eatman here. It's Friday, September twenty ninth, just a 7 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: couple of days away from the Cowboys taking on the 8 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 1: New England Patriots at AT and T Stadium three twenty five. Kickoff. 9 00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:34,040 Speaker 1: Should be a lot of fun. Let's let's see what 10 00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:38,640 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick and Ezekiel Elliott, mac Jones and those guys 11 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,400 Speaker 1: have for the Cowboys. More than anything, Let's see what 12 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:44,599 Speaker 1: the Cowboys can do. Flipping the script. If you can 13 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,800 Speaker 1: lose to the Cardinals and play a game like they 14 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,760 Speaker 1: did last Sunday, then I think everything's on the table. 15 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,520 Speaker 1: And that's something that they're probably talking about this week. 16 00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: I know Mike McCarthy said this morning on the radio 17 00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,960 Speaker 1: that the you know, if he would kind of describe 18 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,280 Speaker 1: his team in the way they've practiced, it would be urgency. 19 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:06,039 Speaker 1: So that's probably a good thing to hear for for 20 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:10,040 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. All right, storylines for this team really it 21 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 1: comes down to, you know, to the injury front. I 22 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: think for for Dallas, I get the sense Zach Martin 23 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,040 Speaker 1: is going to play, or at least has a better 24 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 1: chance of playing. We saw that just just in the 25 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,319 Speaker 1: locker room. I mean last week he talks on Thursday's. 26 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 1: Last Thursday, he did not talk. He also didn't do 27 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,959 Speaker 1: a conference call on Friday for the PR staff. He 28 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:34,399 Speaker 1: did talk yesterday. He is going to do another conference 29 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:36,679 Speaker 1: call for them. So that right there just kind of 30 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 1: tells me. I mean, he's at least thinking about, you know, 31 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 1: getting there, getting ready to play. He practiced a little 32 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,040 Speaker 1: bit some yesterday. So did Tyler Beatish. I think those 33 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 1: guys have a better chance to play. Tyron Smith I wouldn't. 34 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: I wouldn't put in that category. I don't. I don't 35 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,279 Speaker 1: see that happening. And then I would think chum Doga 36 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 1: will play again at left tackle and start the game 37 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 1: at left tackle. That's the way it's of trending for now, 38 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,559 Speaker 1: all right, eight eight eight eight five five two two 39 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: nine seven. That is the phone line, the text line. 40 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:09,799 Speaker 1: I should have this memorized, but I don't yet. Eight 41 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: one seven two nine zero three two nine eight. 42 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 4: Uh. 43 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:15,919 Speaker 1: We've had the same phone line for about twenty years. 44 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 1: So that's why I know that one. But the text 45 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 1: line still get some great stuff out of the text 46 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: messages as well. Well, we're gonna start with the phone line. 47 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: We'll start with Gary in New Mexico. Gary, your first 48 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 1: off here on cowboy storyline?

Who was it? 58 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 7: Mmm? 59 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 1: Prominent? Now? I like how you say that. Not just 60 00:02:55,120 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: some some guy. Oh man, that's a good win. I 61 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 1: don't think Herschel did. They didn't do it. 62 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 6: Hershell beat him on the road, but he never came 63 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 6: back and beat him. 64 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: And tell okay, dor Set didn't do it. DeMarco Murray. 65 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 1: I don't believe it either. 66 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 8: Man. 67 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: If I had a little bit more to go ahead, 68 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: you got. 69 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 6: Me Calvin Hill in nineteen seventy six with the Redskins. 70 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: Calvin Hill seventy six. I should have known that I 71 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 1: was you know I was, I was like six months old. 72 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: I should have got that one good. 73 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 6: I was a youngster too. I just I read all this. 74 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 4: I like that. 75 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 6: Here's my concern. Okay, that blank show that they put 76 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 6: out there last week in Arizona, I think has made 77 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 6: this game against New England a must win game because 78 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 6: if you lose this game Sunday, now you're going to 79 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 6: San Francisco and to the Chargers, you're staring two and 80 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 6: four in the face. Do you think it's a must 81 00:03:58,560 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 6: game this week? 82 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, thanks for the call, Gary. I get a little, 83 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: you know, uneasy about saying must wins on in September 84 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 1: early October as well. I always kind of categorize it 85 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 1: as you better win. It's not really a must win, 86 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 1: but you better win. You better win if you want 87 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 1: to be the team that you think you're going to be. 88 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: Could could they mathematically? Of course, you can do anything 89 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 1: you want to do still early in the year. But 90 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,359 Speaker 1: I know what you're saying here, it is a must 91 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: win game for for that mentality. I like to just 92 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,159 Speaker 1: say they better win. They have to go out and 93 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 1: establish themselves as a good football team. And right now, 94 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: the juries, the jury's out, I mean We think that 95 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: they're going to be good. They've been good the last 96 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,160 Speaker 1: couple of years. They've added some key pieces. They've got 97 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: some great players on this team that they did lose, 98 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 1: you know, a key player in Trayvon Diggs. But they 99 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 1: have to go out and show that they can do this. 100 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: And it doesn't matter who the quarterback is. I mean, 101 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick knows whose quarterback is. He's figured out ways 102 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: to win, you know, in spite of him. And I 103 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: think that this is going to be a big challenge. 104 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 1: So yeah, they know that everybody knows. San Francisco is 105 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 1: on the schedule. We've been talking about it for the 106 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 1: last month. So San Francisco Chargers as well. You know 107 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 1: that that's going to be an interesting game too. So 108 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: this is one of those that you know, you got 109 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: to take care of your your home games. You've got 110 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 1: to beat teams that aren't, you know, considered the elite teams. 111 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: You've got to go and win the game like this. 112 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,919 Speaker 1: So that's where I think it's a it's a better 113 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,799 Speaker 1: win type situation. All right, Curtis and Oklahoma your next Curtis, 114 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 1: what's up? Hey, Good morning, Good morning, Curtis. 115 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 4: Hey, just a few things that I kind of wanted 116 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 4: to talk about. The main thing I'm looking for this 117 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,840 Speaker 4: weekend is a clean game. As far as penalties, I 118 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 4: don't want to see the defensive off side. You know, 119 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,359 Speaker 4: the offense for the Patriots isn't really you know, lighting 120 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 4: up the scoreboard, so you know, you definitely can't give 121 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 4: them continued drives like that. Another thing is, you know, 122 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 4: if you had told me in training camp that our 123 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,039 Speaker 4: first round pick Mazzie Smith wouldn't really be effective and 124 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 4: our kicker would be automatic, I would be pretty shocked 125 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,160 Speaker 4: at those two things. And then the last thing is, 126 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 4: you know, I consider myself a Homer and I'm a 127 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 4: huge Tony Romo fan, but I was still really surprised 128 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 4: at the nomination for the Hall of Fame. And when 129 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 4: I look at him and Dak and what Dak has 130 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 4: done team success and even individually, you know, I think 131 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 4: Dak is just as good in that aspect. So considering 132 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 4: those two things, I'll just hang up and hear what 133 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 4: you got to say about that. 134 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:37,039 Speaker 1: Okay, I'll be clarify that part of Romo's he wasn't 135 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: nominated for the Hall of Fame. He's one of the 136 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: they call it semi finalists. I think there's one hundred 137 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: and ninety seven players on that list, or maybe one seventy. 138 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 1: I went through the entire list and looked at all 139 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: former Cowboy connections and I found fifteen guys that have 140 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:57,600 Speaker 1: played for the Cowboys. Keith Brooking, it was was on 141 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: that mix. I'm Leroy Glover, Eric Williams, Nate Newton, Stepnovski 142 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 1: of course, Darren Woodson, Eddie George. I mean, I'm talking 143 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,480 Speaker 1: about just all players that have ever played for the Cowboys, 144 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: and Romo was on there. So when it gets paired 145 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 1: down the twenty five here later on in this year, now, 146 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: now let let's let's talk about it. And I don't 147 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 1: know if Romo will be in that mixed, so he hasn't. 148 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: He's got a long ways to go when it comes 149 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: to that. And he was on that same list last 150 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: year too. So the finalist, when they get down to 151 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 1: the twenty five, that's when it starts to get serious. 152 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: I think Darren Woodson's the one. We're always kind of 153 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 1: looking at their clean game, true, because you know New 154 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: England is going to play that that way that there 155 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: they play it a very disciplined style. That's that's one 156 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 1: thing that that Belichick always kind of goes for. You know, 157 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: he's he's he's said that, he's admitted that, you know, talent, athleticism, 158 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: all that is great, but he's also looking for for, 159 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 1: you know, the smart players that understand their role, understand 160 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 1: you know, the schemes and the concepts, and you have 161 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 1: to play that way. When when the style that that 162 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 1: he uses, I mean, the Cowboys have been talking about 163 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: it all week. You know, they play a three four defense, 164 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 1: sometimes they play four to three. In the middle of 165 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 1: the game, they switch back and forth, and you got 166 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: to have players that are disciplined to be able to 167 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 1: do that. So yeah, that that's going to be a 168 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: big deal. And ask for Mazie and and and Aubrey. 169 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: You know, yeah, Aubrey after three games, he's been uh, 170 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 1: he's been stellar. You know, he's been better than you've 171 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 1: wanted him to be. And I say that because all 172 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 1: this red zone talk. He's kicked a lot more field 173 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 1: goals than a lot of the Cowboys have wanted to 174 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 1: see out of him. All right, Joe and Stanford, you're next, 175 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: Good morning, Nick. 176 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 9: A few quick things, So first, I don't have really 177 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 9: any expectations of this game. Yes, last week is so 178 00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 9: confusing to me, uh that I just want him to win. 179 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 9: That's my only expectation. Just please win. I don't care 180 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 9: how we do it. I don't care if it's in 181 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 9: the last second. I don't care if it's ugly. I 182 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:09,199 Speaker 9: don't care if it's pretty. I just want to win. 183 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 6: Joe. 184 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:12,959 Speaker 9: I just don't know what to think about a lot 185 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 9: of things that happened last week. I think it's hard 186 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 9: to take anything from it. So I'm not going to 187 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 9: take anything from it except relatious. 188 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 7: Please win. 189 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 9: A couple other things. The last caller was talking about 190 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:29,439 Speaker 9: Tony Romo in comparison to Dak. You know, this may 191 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 9: not be a popular opinion. This is my opinion personally, 192 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 9: I feel like Tony Romo was the best quarterback that 193 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 9: ever played for the Cowboys. I well, I just think skill, skill, 194 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 9: He was super clutch. If Tony had the teams put 195 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 9: with him that a lot of these other players had, 196 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 9: he would have killed it. If he had this team, 197 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 9: he would be flying up and down the field. That's 198 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 9: my opinion. 199 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:01,840 Speaker 1: Well let me, let's let's have some fun with this now, 200 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: because if this isn't these last two years aren't the 201 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 1: best team the Cowboys have had in a while. It 202 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: would be seven, and he was flying up and down 203 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 1: the field with them, and they were really good. I mean, 204 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 1: we kind of know why they didn't win that game 205 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 1: against the Giants. 206 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 7: But pass Rush, I think. 207 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 1: You can argue though he had some talent around him. 208 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 9: Though oh no, I'm not saying he didn't have talent 209 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 9: around him, but he didn't have these kind of defenses. 210 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 9: Troy had these kind of defenses he played with. That's 211 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,839 Speaker 9: one thing people forget about the nineties because everybody likes 212 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 9: to talk about the triplets, But Troy had people like 213 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:37,439 Speaker 9: Darren Woodson and Deon Sanders playing with him. 214 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 10: Number one defenses in the league ye yeah, yeah, and 215 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 10: and Roger Staubach same thing, doomsday defenses. And I'm not 216 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,679 Speaker 10: dissing those guys. They are amazing players, probably maybe better 217 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 10: leaders than Tony was, especially at the beginning of his career. 218 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 10: If you want to have one knock on Tony, that 219 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 10: might be the knock, and that's where Dak maybe has 220 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 10: it over Tony, But an any other metric or comparison, 221 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 10: it ain't close. Tony Romo would is with way better 222 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 10: quarterback than Dak Prescott. 223 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I mean I h I said, yeah, as 224 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,839 Speaker 1: in as in like I hear you, I don't know. 225 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 1: I don't know where I fall in on that. And Joe, 226 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: thanks for the call. I love the first part you said, 227 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 1: just win, just just win the game, and it didn't 228 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: have to doesn't it really matter how because that's what 229 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 1: last week kind of does. And in a weird way, 230 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: I said this on the plane to Derek Eagleton after 231 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:36,840 Speaker 1: the game, I said, you know, in a weird way, 232 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: it's almost a little refreshing because it's kind of just 233 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 1: it just hits the reset button on this whole season 234 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 1: of like, you know, everything is back on the table now. 235 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: I mean, let's let's get excited about wins. Let's get 236 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: style points aren't really gonna matter as much. Let's go 237 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 1: and and and get you know, do the things that 238 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,560 Speaker 1: we're hoping that we're going to see from this team 239 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 1: and not have to worry about how they compare against 240 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: somebody that's not even on the schedule or not on 241 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 1: the schedule for a while. Like, let's just take everything 242 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: in front of them and that's kind of where they are. 243 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: Let's see if the Cowboys approach it the same way 244 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 1: as for Dak and Romo. I said this, you know, 245 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter, like that's one thing about comparing quarterbacks 246 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: in different eras and all, that doesn't really matter at 247 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 1: the end of the day. You know, what fans are 248 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: talking about is just that they haven't been back to 249 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:30,680 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl in what twenty eight years? Twenty seven years, so, 250 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 1: you know, and Romo's a part of that. So is Dak. 251 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: You know, aateman was at the at the end of 252 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 1: his career, and all the other guys kind of in between. 253 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 1: You know, Romo there. So you know, that's that's what 254 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 1: it comes down to. I mean, there are some things 255 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 1: that I there's some some some areas of Romo's game 256 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 1: that I think he was really really good. I think 257 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:56,439 Speaker 1: he's so underrated as a quarterback. He didn't get the 258 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 1: job done at the end. 259 00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 11: You know. 260 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 1: But and you can say the clutch thing is kind 261 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 1: of weird because as a fourth quarter quarterback he was 262 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 1: really good. I think he has a quarterback rating off 263 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 1: the charts. In the fourth quarter, he would come back, 264 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 1: he could rally. Of course, when you say clutch, you 265 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 1: think about playoffs. You also think about dropping the snap 266 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: as a holder in Seattle and things like that. They 267 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: kind of went against him. And you can say what 268 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 1: you want, he should have been holding, he did, he was, 269 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 1: and he dropped it. And so you know, if you 270 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 1: want to make the argument about Romo you can. If 271 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: you want to say how great he was, he's good. 272 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:32,679 Speaker 1: I just think as it stands right now, Romo and 273 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 1: Dack to their careers are very similar in what they've 274 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 1: done and also what they haven't done. All right, Michael 275 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 1: and Bowling Green, Kentucky. What's up? 276 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 12: Hey? 277 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,559 Speaker 8: Funny you were mentioned about Romo and Dad. The last 278 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,959 Speaker 8: time I called in on the Cowboys line was about 279 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 8: ten years ago on Veteran's Day. I thought to gill 280 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 8: Brandt they had a deal if you were a veteran 281 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:55,959 Speaker 8: you went to the frongal line, And I asked him 282 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 8: about Romo. Could he take Could Romo take him to 283 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 8: the super Bowl? But my question today is they just 284 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 8: get rid of the linebacker? Harp I believe yes. Do 285 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 8: you think they get rid of him because they've got 286 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 8: somebody that they're trying to get or do they get 287 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,679 Speaker 8: rid of him because of that penalty on the turf 288 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 8: and play. 289 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 1: The good question. You know, I'm not sure why just yet. 290 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 1: I mean, why did they they released him the penalty. 291 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 1: It's not just because of the penalty, it's it's probably 292 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 1: because the penalty is the one thing that you know 293 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 1: about Devin Harper. I mean, he's not doing really anything else. 294 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 1: I mean, he's not going around and making a lot 295 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 1: of special teams plays and contributing, and he's he's not 296 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 1: at the point where, I mean, this team's thin at linebacker. 297 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 1: You know, he's not a guy that that's that's chomping 298 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 1: at the bit for them to to put on the field, 299 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 1: to say, oh we can you know, we can use 300 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 1: him and play him here, you know where they're like, well, 301 00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: we got to put Marquise Bellet linebacker. We got to 302 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 1: put you know, Jayron Kurs, we got to put Donovan Wilson, 303 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 1: I mean, not a linebacker at linebacker. We got to 304 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: move other guys. So that was part of it, And 305 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 1: I don't think he had taken that step to be 306 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 1: a linebacker on the field full time. The penalty didn't help, 307 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 1: I didn't, you know, it didn't hurt that. It didn't 308 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 1: hurt as bad as people think, in my opinion, just 309 00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 1: because it was a huge penalty. It was like sixty 310 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 1: five yards of off of a field position. But they 311 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: did go down the I mean they went down the 312 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 1: field quickly. They were back right inside the red zone 313 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 1: in a matter of minutes, So didn't have a huge 314 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: impact in the game. But course timing was everything, and 315 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 1: maybe if they were already down there, they could have 316 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 1: scored quicker and maybe changed that that whole game because 317 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: they did have some momentum built up. And but it 318 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 1: was a penalty. I mean that that is a penalty. 319 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 1: He was holding him as the you know, the the 320 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: kick was in the air, so it might have changed 321 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: some things there. I think what they're gonna I think 322 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 1: what they could do is, I mean, you have a 323 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,800 Speaker 1: guy like Malik Jefferson on the practice squad, you could 324 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 1: start elevating him on game day. They were elevating brock Hoffman. 325 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 1: They're out of elevations for him. So they could sign Hoffman, 326 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: who had a nice game at center. He played pretty well. 327 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 1: They could move Hoffman onto the roster and then they 328 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 1: could elevate a linebacker on game day Malik Jefferson, Or 329 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 1: you could sign Jefferson and elevate other centers that you 330 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: have Harlow Price that they just added, so there's things 331 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 1: that they can do. But I mean I would think 332 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 1: Malik Jefferson maybe tyr Sweet, but I would think Jefferson's 333 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 1: probably gonna factor in to this. And I wonder what 334 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: gil Brandt said about Romo. What was his answer? I 335 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: should have asked you that did he think he could 336 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 1: take him? 337 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 4: There? 338 00:16:55,440 --> 00:17:00,240 Speaker 1: It's just this quarterback talk about like the best of 339 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 1: all time or even the best right now. Is Dak 340 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,439 Speaker 1: top ten? Is he top five? Is he top twenty? 341 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:09,199 Speaker 1: I mean, just win. I mean, it doesn't matter. It 342 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 1: really doesn't matter at the end of the day. It's 343 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 1: like your opinion versus your opinion. You know. I look 344 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 1: at guys like Kirk Cousins and I just think, you 345 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 1: know a lot of stats, maybe on your fantasy team, 346 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 1: I don't want him in a clutch situation, you know. 347 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 1: I mean, like like there's just different guys that you 348 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 1: just think differently of. But at the end of the day, 349 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: it's who's winning, who can take their team where they 350 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,920 Speaker 1: want to go, you know, Josh Allen, Joe Burrow, those 351 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:38,400 Speaker 1: guys getting put you know, put up there pretty high, 352 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,120 Speaker 1: and you know, but but Allen hasn't won a lot, 353 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: you know, either, so it just it really doesn't matter, 354 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 1: you know. But this stuff, this kind of stuff happens 355 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: when you lose games, and you lose the way the 356 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,919 Speaker 1: Cowboys did the other day. All right, Ronnie in New Jersey, Ronnie, 357 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:54,400 Speaker 1: what's up? 358 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 13: Good morning? 359 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 12: Make how you doing? 360 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:56,919 Speaker 1: Good morning? 361 00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 12: How are you not too bad? I love your shows? 362 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 12: The shows? Yeah, Nick, the big ass comment. I had 363 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 12: this in my mind. I wanted to tell you you 364 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 12: were talking about on the Cowboys break ron O'Leary. That's uh, 365 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 12: you're comparing him to another guy. 366 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:14,920 Speaker 1: That seems that. 367 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 12: Yeah, yeah, it was you and Brian brought us and 368 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,359 Speaker 12: you guys were talking about it and you're comparing him 369 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 12: to another guard and you were like, he has a 370 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:27,160 Speaker 12: lot of action, an Chris. 371 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 1: Do we have that clip? I mean that that that 372 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 1: drop it somewhere? 373 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:31,160 Speaker 9: It was years ago. 374 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,160 Speaker 1: It was years ago. And I said, yeah, and I've 375 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 1: heard a lot of people with him that that seems 376 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 1: that seems right. 377 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:39,959 Speaker 12: And also because with him, I heard the show that 378 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 12: day and I started laughing when you mentioned it. 379 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 1: All right, all right, let's just go with that then. 380 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 12: But my question, we're moving, we're doing the youth movement, right, 381 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 12: and it seems like Tyrone Smith this might be his 382 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 12: last year the way he's looking. I mean, he looks 383 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 12: great when he's on the field, but with his injuries 384 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 12: and everything. And I know we have this drafted his 385 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:02,199 Speaker 12: last year and we moved them out to left tackle. 386 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 12: But what about if we're gonna have a youth movement, 387 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 12: let's make the whole left side young for the future. 388 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 12: What about if we are half of the year or 389 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:15,360 Speaker 12: you know, half a quarter here and there. Put Richard's 390 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:20,959 Speaker 12: awesome Richards. Yeah, move him and let him get some 391 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:23,919 Speaker 12: reps left tackle with Tyron Smith. That way, you gave 392 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 12: him a break, and we still we're still moving, Uh 393 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 12: with the youth movement. What do you think? 394 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I think I think for sure he's 395 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 1: got an ass there. It is there. It is probably 396 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:37,440 Speaker 1: ten years old. 397 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,159 Speaker 12: It was Ronald Leary man. You were talking about it 398 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 12: because his pants were like always out halfway. 399 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,959 Speaker 1: Well see that's that's another part of it too, Like 400 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 1: we saw more of it than we really wanted to see. Yeah, 401 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 1: it was always you know, it was always the crack 402 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 1: of dawn going on with him. But yeah, uh, good 403 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 1: player though, good good player. All right, man, thanks for 404 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:05,359 Speaker 1: the call youth movement. You know, I don't care. I 405 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 1: don't care if it's Jason Peters at forty three years old, 406 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 1: I really don't care. I mean, I think it's during 407 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,959 Speaker 1: the season. I think you've got to you've got short up. 408 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,120 Speaker 1: I mean, who can block? Who can figure it out? 409 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 1: If it's awesome, right, If he's ready to go, that's 410 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 1: even better obviously. I mean, it was so valuable to have, 411 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:25,160 Speaker 1: you know, Tyler Smith play like he did last year, 412 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 1: and now here he is in his second year. You know, 413 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 1: you want Mozzi Smith to kind of pick it up. 414 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 1: And if Jonathan Hankins is not on the roster next 415 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 1: year because he did sign a one year deal, I mean, 416 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,399 Speaker 1: you would love for Mozzi to be that guy to 417 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,440 Speaker 1: kind of take over. So far, it's early in the season. 418 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 1: We haven't really seen that. You know, you love that 419 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:45,880 Speaker 1: demon and Clark was able to do what he did 420 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:47,919 Speaker 1: last year and get him ready for this year. But 421 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 1: if the guy's not capable, if you don't just put 422 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 1: him out there just because you want him to learn 423 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 1: on the run, you don't do that to your quarterbacks 424 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,359 Speaker 1: blind side. So it's got to be a guy worthy 425 00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 1: of doing it if he's ready. You know, if if 426 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 1: awesome is awesome, go for it. But if he's not, 427 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 1: then I don't think you just throw throw it out there. 428 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:10,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I think if you're going to move Tyler 429 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 1: Smith to tackle, I think Idoga's fine at guard. I 430 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 1: think TJ. Bass could be fine at guard. So you 431 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 1: got options there and they'll they'll figure it out. Unfortunately, 432 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 1: that's just the way it goes that offensive line. You're 433 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,800 Speaker 1: not going to just have the same guys. This team 434 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 1: certainly hasn't had the continuity like that at all. So 435 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 1: all right, let's go to another caller here before our 436 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 1: first break. This is from Joel in Olpaso or Joe. 437 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 14: Oh, yes, I'm here, Hey. 438 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:40,920 Speaker 1: Man, how are you. 439 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:45,120 Speaker 14: I'm great, I'm great. A two things I wanted to say. 440 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:49,119 Speaker 14: One thing with I think that Romo and Dak, everybody's 441 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:52,479 Speaker 14: always comparing them to different fans. I think Romo always 442 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 14: got all the blame for anything that happened, and it 443 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:58,240 Speaker 14: seems like Dak gets all the excuses as if, like 444 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 14: they'll say, his receivers are messed up, his his offensive line, 445 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 14: he just gets a lot of excuses. And I think 446 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 14: that and Romo took a lot of blame. 447 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 7: You talk about that. 448 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 14: And also another thing you've heard of, the Madden curse. Right, 449 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 14: So I've come up with the Jerry jinks, and I 450 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 14: think everybody that Jerry seems to pay uh, they either 451 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:31,440 Speaker 14: get hurt or they start their play goes really down. 452 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:32,159 Speaker 13: It goes all the. 453 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 14: Way back to Martin, goes back to whom Marco Rivera. 454 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 14: Do you remember that? 455 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 3: Yeah? 456 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:41,680 Speaker 14: Okay, So I mean is there anybody that you can 457 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:46,360 Speaker 14: remember getting a payday that hasn't gotten hurt or really. 458 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 1: Significant Well, I mean yeah, I mean I think it's 459 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: easier to go the other way. I mean, like, like, 460 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: who are the who are the guys? Well, get you 461 00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 1: gotta you gotta remember this too. Getting hurt is one thing. 462 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:04,199 Speaker 1: Not playing as well is different because that because all 463 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 1: of a sudden, your expectations are completely different. Now, I mean, 464 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 1: I mean we've seen it with guys that are playing well, 465 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 1: playing well, it's time for their contract. Now they get 466 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:13,880 Speaker 1: a contract. Oh look at them. They're in the top 467 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 1: five of their position or top ten or whatever. Now 468 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 1: you get evaluated differently. Terrence Newman got evaluated differently. You know, 469 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 1: he was still getting four or five interceptions a game. 470 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,360 Speaker 1: But that wasn't good enough. Once you get your contract. 471 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 1: Once you get that contract, you know, now now you 472 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,119 Speaker 1: should be getting eight nine that picks a game, and 473 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,960 Speaker 1: so the expectations obviously go up. We've seen it with 474 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:35,439 Speaker 1: dak as well, you know now because you start putting 475 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:40,479 Speaker 1: a number onto their their performance. As for the injuries, 476 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 1: I mean, okay, Trayvon Diggs, I mean that's something for sure, 477 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 1: that that that that happened. I don't know if it's 478 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,439 Speaker 1: a if it's a jinx, I mean, it's it happened. 479 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:51,640 Speaker 1: It was it was an injury. I mean, good for him. 480 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 1: Good for him for taking the money, you know, and 481 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 1: not drawing it out a little bit. And that's that's 482 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,399 Speaker 1: what you do. That's what that's what negotiations are, what 483 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 1: they are. You want to get HM knocked out of 484 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,639 Speaker 1: the way. So because injuries do happen, so he you know, 485 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 1: he protected him himself, and you know, I mean it's 486 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 1: a little different situation with CD. I mean, he's got 487 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 1: a little bit more more time before he is, you know, 488 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:15,399 Speaker 1: a free agent, so I don't know if he's going 489 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 1: to be rushing to the table, but you know, I'm 490 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 1: sure things like that happen. I just don't know if 491 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,160 Speaker 1: if you've got a long list of the Jerry Jinks, 492 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 1: I'm just not I'm not familiar with that one as much. 493 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 1: I mean, it happens. It was unfortunate, But you know, 494 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 1: the good thing is is Trayvon. You know, he's going 495 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 1: to be a part of this team for a while 496 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: and he's working with the best in the business when 497 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 1: it comes to the rehab guys that they've got, and 498 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 1: I would imagine by the off season of next year, 499 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 1: some OTAs, maybe mini camps, and then he should be 500 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,720 Speaker 1: he probably will be full go, you know, ready for 501 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:51,159 Speaker 1: for training camp, or at least that's the goal. Its corners. 502 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:52,680 Speaker 1: It's a little different when you got knee injury and 503 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 1: your cutting and running and all that. But I would 504 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,959 Speaker 1: imagine he'll be in good shape for next year.

First rushing touchdown either team, 550 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 1: either team might see some Stevenson some answers, Zeke maybe 551 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,920 Speaker 1: Pollard Rico Dadald scored the only touchdown I believe last 552 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 1: week for the Cowboys was on a rushing touchdown, but 553 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:48,360 Speaker 1: he did score, and you know, maybe he's a guy. 554 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 1: They're gonna have to do something in the red zone. 555 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 1: Theyre gonna have to kind of fit. You know, they 556 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,239 Speaker 1: can't just keep running the ball, running the ball. And 557 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,679 Speaker 1: that's one thing too, that that I've been kind of 558 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 1: thinking about, when when when it comes to like this interception, 559 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 1: this this awful interception the deck through. I get it, it 560 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 1: was terrible. I mean, who's he throwing it? You know 561 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: to there was three guys there. But I'm not killing 562 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:11,639 Speaker 1: him for it because number one. I mean, they had 563 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 1: to score two touchdowns and they're trying to get back 564 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 1: in the game. Here it's third down, but like, what 565 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 1: else are you gonna do? You're not gonna run. I mean, 566 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 1: they've they've proven they cannot run the football down there, 567 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 1: and that was the goal run the ball not working, 568 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 1: not working. This line cannot push anybody from the ten 569 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:31,680 Speaker 1: yard line in that was like their end zone. They stopped. 570 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 1: No more pushed there at the ten yard line. So 571 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 1: it's not gonna You're not gonna run it in. You're 572 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 1: not getting a call. You might get the call, but 573 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 1: they'll pick it up, so you're not getting any any 574 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 1: help officiating wides there in the end zone there, guys 575 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 1: all that, so you have you have to take it 576 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 1: upon yourself. That's why I'm not giving I'm putting so 577 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 1: much on deck for this because, I mean, nothing else 578 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 1: was working. We've played what fifty five of the sixty minutes. 579 00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 1: You're not running it, you're not throwing it in there. 580 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 1: You gotta do something, you know, to make it happen. 581 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 1: That's not what you want. But yet, what what other 582 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 1: options are there? I mean, I get it, throw it 583 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 1: away and live for fourth down. Figure something else out. 584 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 1: Not not a great call. Not giving him excuses. I'm 585 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 1: just saying no one else was doing anything, so he 586 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 1: you know, that's what happens when you start putting pressure 587 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 1: on the quarterback. You to go and make the play. 588 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 1: That's what they're trying to avoid him to do. But 589 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 1: but sometimes that happens. Again, no excuse, you can't make 590 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: that throw there, but you know somebody else needs to 591 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 1: step up, and then it hadn't happened that entire game 592 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 1: either side of the ball honestly. All right, let's go 593 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 1: to the phone line. Marquis from Virginia. Marquis, what's up? 594 00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 9: Uh? 595 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 12: Call? 596 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 7: Last week I mentioned that nobody was talking about linebackers 597 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 7: of it even a good thing, going bad things, and 598 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 7: we saw just asson that it was a bad thing. Yeah, 599 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:53,680 Speaker 7: clearly the weakness of the defense. And what fotherished me 600 00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 7: is that two years ago Dan Clan proved to be 601 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 7: like a mad genius by using the linebacker. We drafted 602 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 7: Michael Rossins to also pass rush. Our best linebacker is 603 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 7: also our best being. We have a problem there because 604 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 7: we don't use him on rundowns as a linebacker, and 605 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 7: we should. I think he would be more dynamic on 606 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 7: obvious rundowns first down, second and short and then let 607 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:24,760 Speaker 7: him go down and rush the passer as opposed to 608 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 7: he's almost out of the game in running down unless 609 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:34,960 Speaker 7: he could change something down from behind. And our linebackers, 610 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 7: I'm sorry, we used to get and I'm a Notre 611 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 7: Dame fan too, and rightfully so, we used to get 612 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 7: Jalen a lot of crafts. And we have to realize 613 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:48,360 Speaker 7: that Lvee has never been the same since his rookie 614 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,880 Speaker 7: year it's the reason why he keeps coming back on 615 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:54,800 Speaker 7: one and two year deals, and we need to improve 616 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,720 Speaker 7: with that position. So I think we should move Michael 617 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 7: to linebacker on rundown and then let him go rush 618 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 7: the passer. And that was still that would make you 619 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 7: even more confusing. We're leaving him, letting them move along 620 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:09,959 Speaker 7: the d line, but that's not hoping when you need 621 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 7: a linebacker to straight and get over the top and 622 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:16,480 Speaker 7: run sideline the sideline. It was painful watching LV chase 623 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 7: that guy down the field and I'm just like, I'm 624 00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 7: yelling at the TV like died, like what are you 625 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 7: trying to stir on your feet for? Like just try 626 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 7: to trip him up with something. But yeah, the linebacker 627 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 7: play is like really been bothering me. And it wasn't 628 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 7: just Arizona. That's why I mentioned it before the Arizona game. 629 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 7: I think it's a weakness and I think we should 630 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 7: use our best linebacker at linebacker on run downs, which 631 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 7: is Michael Carson's. 632 00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 1: All right, thanks for the for the call. I mean, 633 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 1: you're you're probably onto something here. The only thing that 634 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 1: kind of strikes me about what you're saying is is 635 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 1: the quote rundowns, like what is running downs? First and ten? 636 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 1: I mean, like what third and one? I mean, what 637 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 1: what are running downs? Because you know there's obviously, you know, 638 00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 1: quarterbacks can and audible out of things. And so the 639 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 1: first thing that they're doing when they break the huddle 640 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 1: and they get to the line of scrimmage is finding 641 00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons. Obviously, is he over here? Is he over here? 642 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:12,360 Speaker 1: Is he back here at linebacker? And if he's back 643 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 1: here at linebacker and I'm supposed to run the football, 644 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 1: I may not run it anymore. This might be this 645 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 1: might be where I want to decide, okay, I can 646 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 1: go back and throw it. So you know, it's not 647 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 1: just like simple as that where you're just like, all right, 648 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 1: put him back there at linebacker. But I don't think 649 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 1: you're wrong in the sense of he should be lining 650 00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 1: up in different spots on the field. And I think 651 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 1: that they might get back to that a little bit. 652 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: Uh And and you know, because he's he's starting to 653 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 1: see it better, you know, recognizing things, and I think 654 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 1: you need to get him maybe at times closer to 655 00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:50,960 Speaker 1: the middle of the field where you're not just going 656 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:55,160 Speaker 1: away from him and attacking him because he's got so 657 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 1: much closing speed. He can close better than anybody on 658 00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 1: this Team's got so much much speed that you almost 659 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 1: want him playing sometimes in the middle of the field. 660 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,880 Speaker 1: So there's just different ways to use him. And I 661 00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 1: think that's what dan Quinn's got to figure out. He's 662 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 1: got to figure out how to use him a little 663 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 1: bit better. I'm not disagreeing with the call. I don't 664 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:15,360 Speaker 1: know if you'll you'll do it as much. I just 665 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 1: know that sometimes that might play right into the hands 666 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 1: of the offense to get him back a little bit 667 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 1: and let them throw the football. There's just not one 668 00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:26,440 Speaker 1: thing that you do. It won't just be one thing. 669 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 1: There will be times he's here, times he's here, but 670 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 1: throw them all all over the field because I think 671 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 1: he's capable of doing it all. 672 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 12: Right. 673 00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 1: Another text question, this is about the game, he says, 674 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 1: I this is from a seven oh six numbers. I 675 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 1: compare this game against the Cardinals like Rocky three. Okay, 676 00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 1: when Mickey died before he fought Klupper Lang got his 677 00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:52,840 Speaker 1: ass beat. That's what Dallas with digs and injury leading 678 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 1: up to the game. But Bland will be a Pro 679 00:33:55,120 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 1: Bowl corner by the end of the Year. Okay, Okay, 680 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 1: so la Ron Bland is going to is he gonna 681 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:07,360 Speaker 1: find like who's going to be the apollo Creed to 682 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:09,279 Speaker 1: kind of help him and they run on the beach 683 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,080 Speaker 1: and train together and all that kind of stuff, like 684 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:12,799 Speaker 1: who's going to do that and kind of get him 685 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 1: to that level. I mean, if you haven't seen the movie, 686 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 1: then that the last minute has really just been a 687 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,720 Speaker 1: waste of your time. But but yeah, basically the point 688 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:26,120 Speaker 1: is is that you you're going through so much shock 689 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:29,280 Speaker 1: right right off the off the jump. You're not You're 690 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 1: mentally not focused and ready for a really really good opponent, 691 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:34,880 Speaker 1: a better opponent than you think. And you were you 692 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,480 Speaker 1: weren't as prepared as you needed to be for that 693 00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 1: huge wake up call having to deal with a lot 694 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:44,520 Speaker 1: of things emotionally. Now you got to get refocused. It's 695 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:48,280 Speaker 1: basically what he's saying, Get refocused, get this thing turned around, 696 00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 1: and and go and and and you know, and beat 697 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,359 Speaker 1: Clover Laying and then make like three or four more 698 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:58,000 Speaker 1: movies after that.

You know, these players, 826 00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:53,400 Speaker 1: you don't want him to have a lot of success. 827 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,920 Speaker 1: But you know, I for me personally, when I when 828 00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:58,760 Speaker 1: I think about him, and you know, it's it's weird 829 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 1: how fast you know, time it can fly a little bit. 830 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:03,520 Speaker 1: I mean I remember him just being a very young, 831 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 1: immature player. I mean he was was He was the 832 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:10,440 Speaker 1: youngest player in the NFL when he got here, and 833 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:15,239 Speaker 1: he was immature. But he grew up, he really did. 834 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 1: We watched him grow up. We watched him grow up 835 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 1: the hard way. At times, he dealt with a lot 836 00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:23,040 Speaker 1: of stuff, and I thought sometimes unfairly, I thought the 837 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:24,960 Speaker 1: way that you know that the league handled some of 838 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:28,120 Speaker 1: this stuff when he first got into the league, and 839 00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:30,160 Speaker 1: things that had happened at Ohio State, and the way 840 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:32,759 Speaker 1: they just kind of drug on and all that. But 841 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:35,880 Speaker 1: I gained a lot of respect for Zeke in the 842 00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:39,239 Speaker 1: way that he knew how to be a superstar. And 843 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:43,600 Speaker 1: that is not the easiest thing in the world, because 844 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:46,399 Speaker 1: it's nice when you get one hundred and seventy five 845 00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:49,480 Speaker 1: yards or two hundred yards or two touchdowns and you 846 00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:51,200 Speaker 1: win the game, and yeah, they want to talk to 847 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:53,920 Speaker 1: you after the game. Yeah, of course, come right, you know, 848 00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:56,040 Speaker 1: come to my locker. I'm here. But when you get 849 00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:59,120 Speaker 1: thirty five yards or you get fifty two yards and 850 00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:01,879 Speaker 1: you have a fumble and you didn't win the game, 851 00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:06,320 Speaker 1: still same thing. I'm here, I'm ill face the music. 852 00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:11,440 Speaker 1: That's what superstars do. And I've seen I've seen guys 853 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:15,400 Speaker 1: that that are Hall of famers that weren't consistent like that, 854 00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:17,879 Speaker 1: they didn't always talk when when they should have. I've 855 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:21,200 Speaker 1: seen the guys that step up there every single Sunday. 856 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,280 Speaker 1: And Zeke was that guy. He did it every Sunday, 857 00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:28,239 Speaker 1: every Wednesday. And and he he he grew up. He 858 00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:30,719 Speaker 1: grew up and and and I'm proud of him, you know. 859 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 1: And I sound like the old guy, but I mean, 860 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:34,880 Speaker 1: but to him, I am, but but I you know, 861 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,600 Speaker 1: I I am proud of the way his career and 862 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,000 Speaker 1: what he's done and how he's able to leave and 863 00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:43,719 Speaker 1: come back. And you got loyal cowboy fans that are like, 864 00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:45,880 Speaker 1: I hope he does well. That right, there is a 865 00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:48,520 Speaker 1: sign a sign of a guy that that's really you know, 866 00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:50,600 Speaker 1: really turned things around and did it the right way. 867 00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:52,319 Speaker 1: All right, we got to speed this up for two 868 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:54,920 Speaker 1: more calls. Uh, Steve in New York? What's up? Steve? 869 00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:59,799 Speaker 11: Just put my question real quick. I love Zeke, big fan, 870 00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:03,640 Speaker 11: but not wearing a twenty one. I'm coming actually coming 871 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:05,080 Speaker 11: down for the game here from New York. 872 00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:05,800 Speaker 1: So awesome. 873 00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:09,000 Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean, you're you're pretty much mind. I mean 874 00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,000 Speaker 11: you you remember two thousand and three em Its first 875 00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,520 Speaker 11: game back, you had the all time bleeding rusher. I mean, 876 00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:16,399 Speaker 11: you know, the way was cheering for him then, and listen, 877 00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:19,919 Speaker 11: I hope he does good every other game except step 878 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,640 Speaker 11: someday wishing. The best quick question for you is, though, 879 00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:25,480 Speaker 11: I'm not a big stat guy, but did I see 880 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:27,239 Speaker 11: that with the only team in the league that does 881 00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:30,239 Speaker 11: not have a touchdown by a wide receiver? And if 882 00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:34,480 Speaker 11: that's true, what do you attribute that to the quarterback 883 00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:37,640 Speaker 11: or our system so far? Or could just be the games, 884 00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:40,399 Speaker 11: you know, the flow of the games that we've had 885 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:40,759 Speaker 11: so far. 886 00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:45,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I don't know if that status. I mean, 887 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:46,840 Speaker 1: I know they haven't had one with the wide receiver 888 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:48,799 Speaker 1: that would make sense. I mean, that's kind of rare 889 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:51,120 Speaker 1: here three games in, so it doesn't surprise me if 890 00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:53,520 Speaker 1: the Cowboys are the only team that haven't have done that, 891 00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:57,480 Speaker 1: it's still it's still three games. So again, this is 892 00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:00,640 Speaker 1: kind of tough to figure out, Okay, your finger on 893 00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:04,920 Speaker 1: certain things. I think I think four games is a 894 00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:07,359 Speaker 1: good is a good number for that. I mean it's 895 00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:10,560 Speaker 1: a month into the season, You've had home games, road games, 896 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:12,799 Speaker 1: you know, good teams, bad teams, and all all that 897 00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:15,080 Speaker 1: kind of stuff mixed in. So I think after four 898 00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 1: games you could really start to decide what's a trend 899 00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:23,359 Speaker 1: what isn't. And you know, I would be surprised if 900 00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 1: they go to this game and don't have one. But 901 00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:28,120 Speaker 1: as for the reason why, you know, it's it's it's 902 00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:29,960 Speaker 1: a lot of it has been the play calling, the 903 00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:32,719 Speaker 1: conservative play calling, really in the red zone. I mean, 904 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 1: sometimes they're not even going for touchdowns, they're not even 905 00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:37,279 Speaker 1: throwing it, and when they do, it's been you know, 906 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:40,719 Speaker 1: low percentage passes, you know, on on to the outside. 907 00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:44,399 Speaker 1: So they really haven't been you know, they haven't taken 908 00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:46,799 Speaker 1: a lot of shots down the field as well. So 909 00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:49,440 Speaker 1: I think it's it's really more of of the the 910 00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:52,880 Speaker 1: conservative play calling when they've gotten down, uh to the 911 00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:58,160 Speaker 1: red zone? All right, last caller Rob in Vegas, Hey, 912 00:43:58,239 --> 00:43:58,879 Speaker 1: what's up Rob? 913 00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:06,160 Speaker 13: I think defensively, I think we'll dominate RPO quarterbacks give 914 00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:09,319 Speaker 13: us an issue, and Matt Jones is definitely not that 915 00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:14,040 Speaker 13: I could care less about Zeke. I'm a cowboy fan, 916 00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 13: not a players fan. Once you leave, you're the enemy. 917 00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:18,799 Speaker 12: And I want to. 918 00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:22,680 Speaker 13: See Dak get back to being a playmaker and less 919 00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:25,040 Speaker 13: of a game manager. I think he needs to play 920 00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:27,799 Speaker 13: like he did at Tampa. He keeps telling us I 921 00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 13: should use my legs more, and he should. I think 922 00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:33,720 Speaker 13: that's more of his game. And I think the final 923 00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:36,880 Speaker 13: score is thirty to sixteen. If this defense gives up 924 00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:40,040 Speaker 13: twenty points or more to the Patriots, then we're in 925 00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:44,920 Speaker 13: big trouble, okay, because this defense is way too good. 926 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:49,600 Speaker 13: That offense is in dynamics, and there should be no 927 00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:52,400 Speaker 13: reason they give up more than a touchdown or so 928 00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:55,720 Speaker 13: against the Patriots couple field goals, But I see thirty 929 00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:59,040 Speaker 13: to sixteen. This has to be a statement game because 930 00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:02,040 Speaker 13: next week you're going against the bullet So far with 931 00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:05,239 Speaker 13: the forty nine ers, you cannot lose this game. And 932 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:07,560 Speaker 13: then Jeppe and then maybe lose next week because then 933 00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:08,840 Speaker 13: your season is in big trouble. 934 00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:12,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, I agree. Thanks thanks for the call. Uh, 935 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:14,879 Speaker 1: it's early in the season, but but it's not too 936 00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:17,080 Speaker 1: early to start looking down the road. And you know, 937 00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:19,600 Speaker 1: because what happens is is that you get to a 938 00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:21,920 Speaker 1: point when you lose, you know, and you don't you 939 00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:23,960 Speaker 1: don't get the seed that you won, or you miss 940 00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 1: the playoffs or whatever. You'll start going back down, you know, 941 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:31,640 Speaker 1: to week three, Week two, week six, and go man 942 00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:33,919 Speaker 1: could have won that one, should have won that one. 943 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,799 Speaker 1: So it's not too early to start thinking these games matter. 944 00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:40,320 Speaker 1: You only play seventeen of them, they all tend to matter. 945 00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:43,320 Speaker 1: And this is one where you're at home. You're facing 946 00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:46,399 Speaker 1: a quarterback that is is he's not that good. He's 947 00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:49,520 Speaker 1: really not. He's and he's certainly not mobiles. He's not 948 00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:51,680 Speaker 1: the type of guy that's been running all over the 949 00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:54,759 Speaker 1: place and all that. You've got to be able to 950 00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:58,839 Speaker 1: control him. Make him throw the football. Just shore up 951 00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:01,839 Speaker 1: the running game, the run defense, make him go throw 952 00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:05,120 Speaker 1: the football, and I think good things will happen more 953 00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:09,080 Speaker 1: for the Cowboys. I've got My score is twenty three 954 00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:11,520 Speaker 1: to twenty. It's kind of along the line as some 955 00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:13,839 Speaker 1: of these others. Of course, Robin vegas Is say if 956 00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:16,200 Speaker 1: they score twenty, it's not good for the defense. But 957 00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:18,719 Speaker 1: I got them right there at twenty twenty three twenty. 958 00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:21,520 Speaker 1: All right, pod pick is who's gonna score the first touchdown? 959 00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:24,680 Speaker 1: I think it will be Zeke. I think they'll score. 960 00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:27,480 Speaker 1: They'll get down there and Belichick's gonna give it to 961 00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:29,239 Speaker 1: him and I think he'll get in. That doesn't mean 962 00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:31,560 Speaker 1: it'll change. It'll be, you know, setting the tones for 963 00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:34,560 Speaker 1: the game. But I do think Zeke HiT's my pick 964 00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:38,359 Speaker 1: for the first rushing touchdown of the game for either team. 965 00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:40,960 Speaker 1: All right, it's been a good week here on Cowboys 966 00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:44,319 Speaker 1: storyline for Chris Beam.
