7
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 1: start this thing off better than that. All right, It's Tuesday,

8
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 1: March twenty sixth, and it is time to get this

9
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,239
Speaker 1: thing Roland. I'm Nick Eatman here Cowboys Storyline. We have

10
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,280
Speaker 1: a couple of people already on the line. There's the

11
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 1: NFL owners meetings going on in Orlando. Nick Harris is

12
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: covering that for us. He's been there getting headlines from

13
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: Mike Karthy. Talk this morning, Jerry Jones, I think uh

14
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 1: talked just a few minutes ago. So a lot of

15
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 1: different topics going on, rule changes, which we'll talk about

16
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:11,319
Speaker 1: some of that. I'm sure you guys will have some

17
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 1: thoughts on some of the new things. The kickoffs is

18
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:17,319
Speaker 1: the big one that they change that's going to look

19
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,040
Speaker 1: really different right off the bat next year, first game

20
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 1: of the season is going to look different with just

21
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: the just the way and if you haven't seen the

22
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,960
Speaker 1: XFL games, that's basically where they adopted it from. I mean,

23
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 1: the kicker is just sitting out there by himself. You know,

24
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 1: he's basically like forty or twenty five yards away from everyone,

25
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 1: and everyone else is on this side of the field.

26
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 1: He's just going to kick it off. So it's going

27
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,479
Speaker 1: to look different. But I don't know how different it'll

28
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:47,119
Speaker 1: really be once the ball's caught, but yeah, it might

29
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 1: look different to start it definitely. Well, but that's one

30
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,640
Speaker 1: of the changes. We can talk more about that. Eight

31
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: eight eight, eight five five to two nine seven. It's

32
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 1: the number two call. You can text us here and

33
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 1: I got it here. Eight one seven two nine zero

34
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 1: three two nine eight. All right, let's go to the line.

35
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 1: Let's start this thing with Daniel in Longview, Texas.

36
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:10,360
Speaker 2: Hey, brother, how are you doing?

37
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 1: How are you doing?

38
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 2: Not too bad? Starting a week off? Weather's good out here,

39
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,359
Speaker 2: is finally not raining, so we're happy about that. I

40
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 2: just got a couple of quick things for you, so

41
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 2: don't top the line. Just a little bit before the

42
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 2: show started, when guys from NFL Network, I in Rappaport

43
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 2: reported there's a basically a mutual agreement as far as

44
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 2: Dax's contract, and Jerry's pretty much saying they're just going

45
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,359
Speaker 2: to kind of let it ride and it doesn't appear

46
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 2: that there's any deal imminent.

47
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 4: Now.

48
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 2: I know I talked to you last Tuesday. You said

49
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 2: you don't see you know why they want to get

50
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 2: a deal done. I didn't know your thoughts on if

51
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 2: that changed anything as far as you're concerned. The other

52
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:56,359
Speaker 2: question I had, and I'll hang up and listen, reports

53
00:02:56,360 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 2: out that Mazie and Schoonmaker both had to have older surgeries,

54
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 2: which definitely is an ideal. Right, do you think maybe

55
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,359
Speaker 2: they look at to getting some help with the defensive

56
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:12,400
Speaker 2: tackle situation a little earlier than maybe anticipated or how's

57
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 2: that look in your opinion?

58
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: All right, okay, I appreciate it, Thanks for the thanks

59
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:19,799
Speaker 1: for the call of Daniel. Do you have anything else?

60
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,639
Speaker 2: I appreciate it. That's it. That's it today. All hang

61
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 2: up and catch a.

62
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 1: Player, all right, thank you? All right, I'll start with

63
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 1: the with the injury stuff. Mazzi. You know that that

64
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 1: sounds like it's a four month thing, four to five months,

65
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 1: which is going to be most of the off season,

66
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: So not not ideal for for a guy that they

67
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 1: really were counting on to be, you know, a lot stronger,

68
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: better technique. All that just you're gonna miss a lot

69
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 1: in the off season when when you're trying to learn

70
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: new you know, new schemes, new alignments that that Mike

71
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 1: Zimmer has. So that that's one thing there. And then

72
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 1: a scoon Maker, I don't think it's on that same Uh,

73
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 1: he's been doing some some running around and sprints and

74
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 1: things like that. I don't think he he will miss

75
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 1: that much time. I think he might miss some of

76
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 1: the offseason OTAs and stuff, just to kind of be cautious,

77
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,839
Speaker 1: but I don't foresee that being a big deal, uh

78
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:19,839
Speaker 1: for scoon Maker. So and then as for the Dak stuff,

79
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 1: I think that you know, it'll this deal is gonna

80
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 1: get done. I didn't see, uh, you know, not being

81
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: down there exactly what what is being reported, but uh,

82
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,920
Speaker 1: you know, I I think that they'll I've never had

83
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,159
Speaker 1: any doubt that that they're going to sign back to

84
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,159
Speaker 1: a to a deal or you know, and probably one

85
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 1: that that makes the most sense. I mean, Jerry said

86
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: it just two days ago that he thinks this his

87
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 1: contract will affect the cap for five years to come.

88
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,840
Speaker 1: I mean, that's probably looking like a five year deal.

89
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think anyone expects anything different. Than that,

90
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 1: so that I don't know exactly what the report was,

91
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: but but you know, sometimes it's just you know, word slid,

92
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: if you will, just all the different kinds of things

93
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 1: that's been thrown in there to make it look different,

94
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 1: but it's really kind of saying the same thing. I

95
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:12,720
Speaker 1: think Deak's going to be a quarterback here and everyone

96
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:16,119
Speaker 1: knows that. All right, Brian and Kansas City is next.

97
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:19,039
Speaker 3: Good afternoon, sir.

98
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 1: How you doing.

99
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 3: I'm doing all right, man, we're having I was just

100
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 3: telling Biember we're having spring break this week, and it

101
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 3: does not feel like spring. It was twenty five when.

102
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 5: I woke up.

103
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 1: Wow, different different call than what we just had, so.

104
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 2: We got we web report.

105
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 3: Sorry about that. I didn't mean to give you the

106
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 3: Mickey Stagnola weather report, but we'll move on. Yeah, So

107
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 3: you know, I can understand the with the new rule changes.

108
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 3: I don't watch the other league, so I don't know

109
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 3: what those kickoffs look like. I'm excited to see the

110
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,160
Speaker 3: preseason and kind of get an understanding of it. But

111
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 3: with the with the hip drop, you know, it's you

112
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 3: always want to see something better for player safety. You know,

113
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,720
Speaker 3: I do understand the players coming out and saying, how

114
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,599
Speaker 3: how do we tackle people nowadays? You know, it's getting

115
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 3: harder and harder, and you know now the now the

116
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:11,720
Speaker 3: window for where you can hit somebody's pretty small. Yeah,

117
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 3: and I understand that. You know, Well, we'll have to

118
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 3: see how it plays out. How often it's called. I'm

119
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 3: sure Tony Pollard is a fan, right well, I mean.

120
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean he is now is that it didn't

121
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 1: go back and change the game that they lost right in.

122
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 3: The in the playoffs. So, uh, you know, I haven't

123
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:31,720
Speaker 3: called in in a couple of weeks. So I got

124
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 3: two things for you that I that other people have

125
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,040
Speaker 3: talked about. I do always watch at night when I

126
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 3: can't call in. So having watched what they did and

127
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 3: didn't do, especially in the trenches, because I think it's

128
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 3: all one and lost in the trenches. They didn't replace

129
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 3: the one tech, they didn't replace the two two offensive

130
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 3: linemen that they lost. I don't think you could do

131
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 3: it all in the draft. I don't think that's going

132
00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:00,040
Speaker 3: to be possible to get three starters. I think he

133
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 3: probably going to take a little step back this year.

134
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 3: I really thought we would sign one of one of

135
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 3: those three players, and we didn't and you know, I

136
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 3: think I do think now having watched that play out,

137
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 3: I think maybe we're going to take a little step back.

138
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:16,960
Speaker 3: The other thing that we've heard a bunch of times

139
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 3: is fans talking about wanting to trade Micah because you know,

140
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 3: we think we could get the world for him, right,

141
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 3: maybe he could get two number ones or something, or

142
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 3: a one and a two. I do think that because

143
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 3: of his size, just like he kind of peters out

144
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 3: at the end of the year, I think that's going

145
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 3: to happen in his career too. I don't know that

146
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 3: I want him on a second contract if I don't

147
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 3: think he's big enough to play the position he's trying

148
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 3: to play. And he can control that. He could put

149
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 3: on the size if he wants to. Don't know if

150
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 3: he will. And then my my player for this week

151
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 3: is somebody he was on the mid mid nineties roster

152
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 3: and he was the center, Clay Shiver. And I'll hang

153
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 3: up and listen to what.

154
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 1: You got man, all right, thank you, Brian. You know

155
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 1: I think that it does. I mean, it appears like

156
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 1: they they aren't as good as last year. I mean,

157
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,080
Speaker 1: that's what it looks like just right now. You throw

158
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,239
Speaker 1: that in and say, all right, they're they're they're missing

159
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 1: some some key you know, players that they lost in

160
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 1: free agency, you know, who have they signed? Uh, And

161
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: then they're they're asking for a lot of these second

162
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: and third year guys to make this big leap, and

163
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 1: who knows if they will. The schedule looks like it

164
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:36,440
Speaker 1: could be tougher usually first play schedules are, but you know,

165
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 1: it's still it's still early in the game. And it's

166
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 1: not just those guys that are making that leap that

167
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,439
Speaker 1: that they're counting on. And you're also counting on your

168
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 1: your star players and your good players to be even better.

169
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 1: You know, you're counting on Ceedee Lamb type jumps. Ceedee

170
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 1: Lamb was the star two years ago, and he was

171
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 1: last year, and then this past year, I mean he

172
00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 1: was he was one of the best players in the NFL.

173
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 1: So it's not just the unproven guys that are gonna

174
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 1: make big leaps. It's it's it's your your star players

175
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 1: as well, you know, your Pro Bowl guys that might

176
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 1: maybe are gonna be all pro. You know, what kind

177
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 1: of what if Jake Ferguson takes a leap and what

178
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 1: does that look like? I mean what is he going

179
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,439
Speaker 1: to be an all pro? I mean, I'm just saying,

180
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,199
Speaker 1: you're you're hoping that a lot of these guys keep

181
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 1: keep going forward, but it is it is tough to

182
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 1: ask and to to think that, you know, it's all

183
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 1: just gonna work out and you're gonna you know, this

184
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 1: team didn't draft any starters last year, but now they're

185
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 1: gonna draft three or four and they're not picking any

186
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,080
Speaker 1: differently too. I mean, they actually have less picks. So

187
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 1: it's got to be a good draft and and and

188
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,439
Speaker 1: they've got to turn the last couple of drafts into

189
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:47,439
Speaker 1: good drafts. I don't want to talk about Micah, trading

190
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 1: Micah and all that kind of stuff. I mean, he's

191
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 1: here right now. He's the guy, and and I would

192
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 1: imagine he's gonna get a big deal too, so that

193
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:59,040
Speaker 1: kind of seems irrelevant to talk about. And uh, Klay Shiver.

194
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 1: I was here when they drafted him. I think it

195
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 1: was in ninety seven from Florida State, I believe, you know.

196
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:11,080
Speaker 1: So he played a little bit right after Stepnosky. He

197
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:15,959
Speaker 1: was actually the starter between or before and after Stepnovsky

198
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,319
Speaker 1: because they let Stepnosky go. And I take that back,

199
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 1: Ray Donaldson came in then Shiver and Shiver was just

200
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 1: good enough for them to say, we want to get

201
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 1: Stepnosky back from the Titans or Oilers wherever they were

202
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 1: at that point. So he didn't have a long career

203
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 1: and played it just good enough for them to say

204
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 1: we got to get somebody else. All right, let's go

205
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 1: to the next caller is Bill in New Haven, Connecticut.

206
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 6: Hey, Nick, what's going on, Bunny?

207
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 1: How are you doing?

208
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 6: I'm doing well. How about yourself?

209
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:49,719
Speaker 1: I'm good? What's up here? We go?

210
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:50,400
Speaker 5: Hey?

211
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 6: I wish I had some new and exciting stuff to

212
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:56,319
Speaker 6: talk about, but I'm not exactly putting the atom here

213
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,800
Speaker 6: with my commentary. But first things first, I would just

214
00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 6: like to say the Cowboys fan please stop with the

215
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,960
Speaker 6: trading Mike and Parson stuff. It's just it's ridiculous.

216
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,360
Speaker 5: You're mad about them losing players.

217
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,200
Speaker 6: That are good now, but yet you want to train

218
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:14,959
Speaker 6: your generational defensive player. But I digress.

219
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 5: But as I think fact about the off season, Nick,

220
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,440
Speaker 5: I think about something you said a couple of years ago,

221
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 5: and you might not even remember saying it, but it

222
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 5: was on one of the other shows, and you said, no,

223
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 5: don't worry it's, uh, every every season starts with a

224
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 5: number now for the Cowboys, and it was just in

225
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,840
Speaker 5: the context of the disappointment of the you know, no

226
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:44,199
Speaker 5: Super Bowl, no championship game appearances, and when you I

227
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 5: guess what I'm trying to say is when you hear

228
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,600
Speaker 5: that this year is really going to be a year

229
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,160
Speaker 5: for the Cowboys to reset the cap and next year

230
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,480
Speaker 5: will be more of the same, it's it's kind of

231
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 5: hard to hear that when when you would think there's

232
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 5: a burning hunger for this, I mean.

233
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 6: To end that streak.

234
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 5: And I'm not saying the front office doesn't want to win.

235
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:06,439
Speaker 6: I think that's ridiculous.

236
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 5: I do think they want to win, but I think

237
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 5: that the reliance I'm basically what the last car said

238
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 5: before me. I'm hoping that unproven players develop and make

239
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 5: a leap and hoping that your draft picks hit. I

240
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 5: just it's really frustrating that they finally have a team

241
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,080
Speaker 5: that is a playoff. They're in the playoffs every year.

242
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,959
Speaker 5: They're in a good spot and there may not be

243
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 5: a leap, but they're not that far off. And we're

244
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 5: just almost like we're going two steps forward, one step back.

245
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 5: You got a quarterback who's going to be thirty one

246
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 5: years old in July. He's coming back, in my opinion,

247
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 5: and he should in my opinion. So for the next

248
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 5: two years, you're going to try to get the cap

249
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 5: situation right with him when we know he's not and

250
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 5: this isn't a knock on him. He's not a guy

251
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 5: like Mahomes, who you put on your tan, you're instantly

252
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 5: a Super Bowl content contender. And there's there two guys

253
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 5: in the league that are like that. So he needs help.

254
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:09,720
Speaker 5: And I'm not saying he doesn't have help, let me

255
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:12,320
Speaker 5: make that clear, but needs as much as he can get.

256
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 5: And the front office has made a decision that they're

257
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 5: not gonna do that. They're actually gonna try to develop players.

258
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 5: And it's just hard because I've seen this team kick

259
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:28,439
Speaker 5: the can down the road, restructure two extensions with teams

260
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 5: that had no chance, teams that if everything went right,

261
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 5: they might win ten games and win the division, and

262
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,679
Speaker 5: they get bounced in the wildcare round. And now they

263
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:42,360
Speaker 5: actually have a team that's pretty good, and it's just

264
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:43,079
Speaker 5: it's just.

265
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:46,320
Speaker 1: What do you want them to do differently?

266
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 5: Okay, well, I mean what I would like to do.

267
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,480
Speaker 5: I would have brought back Tyren Smith and that chief deal.

268
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,240
Speaker 5: I definitely think we could wait. Wait with what deal

269
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:01,320
Speaker 5: Tyron Smith deal? That's incentively I didn't. It's basically tied

270
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 5: into how many games played, and if you don't play

271
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 5: that many games, that means you're getting an old pro

272
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 5: left tackle.

273
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:12,440
Speaker 6: Okay, Right, It's not a question of okay, if.

274
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,560
Speaker 5: Tyler can play or not. It's if he's healthy. Do

275
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 5: you agree with that?

276
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 1: Well? Not not anymore. No, it's it's do they want

277
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 1: to pay twenty million dollars for their left tackle or

278
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 1: do they want to pay one?

279
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 5: But Nick, it's not It might not even be twenty million.

280
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 7: It could be twenty million.

281
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 1: If it's not, then who are you paying and who

282
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 1: are you playing?

283
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 5: But you wouldn't rather at thirteen twelve thirteen games of Tyler's.

284
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I would have. I would have, But I'm

285
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 1: saying they to do that, it would have been it's

286
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 1: about twenty would have about twenty three million dollars per

287
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 1: year for one year, twenty three. Don't say twenty that's

288
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 1: what the Jets got. He wanted twenty three from the Cowboys.

289
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 1: He didn't do a hometown this guy. He wanted more

290
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 1: from the Cowboys. He felt like over the years he's

291
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,800
Speaker 1: been paid less, so he did more. Right, Okay, okay,

292
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 1: all right, okay, yeah, we'll do it all all week.

293
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 1: We'll be you can call back Thursday. I get it.

294
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I get what you're saying. But they they don't.

295
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 1: And I'm not trying to defend them. I mean I

296
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: get the frustration I'm not doing stuff, but they, you know,

297
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 1: they they don't feel like this next two years it's

298
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 1: gonna work out to just you know, sign a bunch

299
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 1: of players this year. The money is real. Next year,

300
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 1: I mean next year, and we're looking at seventy something

301
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 1: million dollars and just dead money, and so that's gonna

302
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 1: be tough. It's gonna be tough, especially with some of

303
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 1: those players probably won't be on the team, you know, Zach,

304
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 1: Martin and Tank and unless they do something creative and

305
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 1: resign them, but you know, in which they could do

306
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:58,240
Speaker 1: for for for Zach. But actually, let's go back to

307
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 1: somebody had called just now or or one of the

308
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:08,160
Speaker 1: calls that was talking about Ian Rapp report's report on Dak,

309
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 1: and actually the report is that they don't think Dak's

310
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 1: going to get a long term deal. They're going to

311
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 1: just play this out, that's what That's what the report

312
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 1: is that they've pretty much agreed that they're not going

313
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 1: to do a deal. It's been a mutual understanding. As

314
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 1: it pops up on the screen here, thank you, there

315
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 1: will be no offers from Dallas despite him being on

316
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 1: the contract year. We are where we are locked in

317
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,400
Speaker 1: and loaded for this year. No indication that a deal

318
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:38,320
Speaker 1: is coming. That was a report just now from the

319
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 1: NFL network. No indication of a deal, I mean, which

320
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 1: can change in an hour or less than that. So cool.

321
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 1: I mean, as it stands right now, doesn't seem to

322
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 1: be that way, but that can change if that's what

323
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: the Cowboys decide to do. All right. I still think

324
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 1: Dak's going to be the quarterback here. I mean that's

325
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 1: what I really believe. I think he'll be the quarterback

326
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 1: here for a few years. So we'll see how it

327
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:07,920
Speaker 1: all plays out. All right, Let's go to Robin Vegas.

328
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 2: Hey, Nick, what's up.

329
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:16,159
Speaker 8: It's a weird offseason. I mean, it's like Jerry is

330
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 8: saying to himself, that's it. I'm taking the allowance away.

331
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 8: You guys are on your own. I mean, I don't

332
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 8: see what he's doing. I don't think he's bringing deck.

333
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 8: I mean THATK is going to play out. I don't

334
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,920
Speaker 8: think there'll be a new contract if that. If it is,

335
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 8: he's dumb. He should have did it before free agency.

336
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:43,159
Speaker 8: It's like he's gonna use Dak as well. You know,

337
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 8: he just wasn't good enough to carry this team. But

338
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 8: we already know that DK isn't good enough to carry

339
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 8: the team. He's a very good quarterback. I throw him

340
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:57,680
Speaker 8: anywhere between six and ten ranking, But there's only one

341
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,199
Speaker 8: quarterback in the league that's proven he's good enough, and

342
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 8: that's Mahomes. So by him doing that, you already already

343
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:10,880
Speaker 8: got him. You know, fail, he's gonna fail. Second of all,

344
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:13,639
Speaker 8: I think he's gonna I think he's gonna use it

345
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 8: as the money thing. Well, you know, he wasn't good

346
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 8: enough to carry the team, and he's good and he

347
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 8: wants sixty million dollars.

348
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 3: And I agree with it.

349
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:26,600
Speaker 8: I said, if his contract is fifty two fifty three,

350
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,680
Speaker 8: I do it. Lamar Jackson just got that. And let's

351
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 8: be honest, they're both kind of the same player in

352
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:33,920
Speaker 8: the playoffs.

353
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 1: Wow, So they all are. They all are Rob. I mean,

354
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:38,600
Speaker 1: you just said it yourself that there's only one I.

355
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 8: Know, and that's that's why we said, if he wants sixty,

356
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:43,359
Speaker 8: I let him walk.

357
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 9: Absolutely.

358
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:49,119
Speaker 8: But I but but it just doesn't make sense. Jerry says,

359
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,520
Speaker 8: one thing that's gonna be here for years to come.

360
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,159
Speaker 8: I see him winning a super Bowl. No, you don't,

361
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,199
Speaker 8: because you would have already gave him a contract and

362
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:01,920
Speaker 8: built the team. Because you were close, like the last

363
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:05,840
Speaker 8: caller said, we are, we were, we were. We're closer

364
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:09,680
Speaker 8: to getting to the super Bowl than not. And that's

365
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,680
Speaker 8: I think what has sayings, you know, saying that something.

366
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,200
Speaker 8: What's going on here? Like I said before, we weren't

367
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:17,560
Speaker 8: five and twelve three years in a row. We were

368
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 8: twelve five. We all needed we all know what we needed.

369
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,680
Speaker 8: We needed a nice defensive tackle that could actually do something.

370
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 8: We definitely need a linebacker help, and we didn't do

371
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:29,399
Speaker 8: any of that.

372
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 4: We got it.

373
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 8: We got an older linebacker, so we'll see what happens

374
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 8: with that. We we've lost so many players on defense,

375
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,200
Speaker 8: and no they weren't great, but their bodies. I mean,

376
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 8: we haven't and you can't replace everybody in the drift.

377
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:45,400
Speaker 8: It's just a weird season. It's like Jerry Jermy's gonna

378
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:48,120
Speaker 8: set this up for failure in a way, and hopefully

379
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 8: I'm I'm proven wrong, and then he's gonna let He's

380
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,800
Speaker 8: gonna let him walk because he's gonna just say, listen,

381
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,199
Speaker 8: he's just he just wanted too much money and he

382
00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:04,960
Speaker 8: couldn't he can't win, and he's right. I just I mean,

383
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:09,159
Speaker 8: unless you know something that that I don't know, I

384
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,919
Speaker 8: don't see a contract getting done. Why wouldn't you have

385
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 8: gotten that contract done already? Because if you get it

386
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:19,520
Speaker 8: done right now, it's meaningless. You can't go get anybody.

387
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:22,639
Speaker 8: So we already know, Okay, what are you gonna do.

388
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 8: You're gonna sign Michael Parsons. Okay, well we already figured

389
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:29,080
Speaker 8: that you're gonna sign Ceedee Lamb. He's see the Lamb's

390
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 8: your best player. We already know you're gonna do that.

391
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:35,199
Speaker 8: You'd be crazy not to do those two moves. But

392
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:39,920
Speaker 8: you sign those two guys, and and you let Dak go,

393
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,439
Speaker 8: and now you don't have a quarterback. What's the difference.

394
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:45,359
Speaker 8: You'll be right back where you started. There's a quarterback

395
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:49,639
Speaker 8: driven league. So I don't think Dak is great. But

396
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 8: I think you should, you know, surround him with some

397
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 8: more help and I and I think you'd have a

398
00:20:57,840 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 8: way better chance.

399
00:20:58,800 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 10: And that the.

400
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:04,440
Speaker 8: Pirates contract was twelve million dollars if he hits all

401
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 8: his goals, and I think the Cowboys could have done

402
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 8: something like that. He's not gonna hit all his goals

403
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 8: to get the twelve I think last week when I called,

404
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,920
Speaker 8: I thought, I said it was ten. I mean you

405
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 8: would have paid Tyrant's been ten million dollars for one year.

406
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:21,879
Speaker 1: Yeah. They didn't have the money to do that, so

407
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 1: they didn't. They didn't have two million to pay Hankins.

408
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 8: So well they listen, they didn't want Hankins, and I

409
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:33,359
Speaker 8: get it. Hankerds was older, hank it theydn't want it. No,

410
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 8: they didn't want him. And I don't blame all. Hankins

411
00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:39,840
Speaker 8: is past his prime. Now million and a half dollars

412
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 8: I think he signed. But that's not a lot of money.

413
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,399
Speaker 8: So that just goes to show you that they said

414
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 8: this guy isn't that good. And I'm okay with that.

415
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,360
Speaker 1: And I don't think Tyron Smith wanted to play here.

416
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,159
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think he did. I mean, I.

417
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:57,399
Speaker 11: Mean, yeah, that's I mean, he's terrible, a lot of

418
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:01,960
Speaker 11: him and that's that's a terrible, terrible thing by And

419
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 11: they bent over backwards to keep you on this team.

420
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,359
Speaker 8: They bent over backwards to now you didn't even have

421
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 8: to practice. What else did you want to?

422
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 1: Don't again, I don't know all that. I just think

423
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 1: I know he was. His asking price with the Cowboys

424
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 1: was higher than it was at other places. Where you

425
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,239
Speaker 1: have a where you have to play, you know, have

426
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:24,680
Speaker 1: it to pay an income tax, a state income tax.

427
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,359
Speaker 1: So it was pretty clear he didn't want to he

428
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,000
Speaker 1: want to play here in Dallas. I don't know all

429
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:32,159
Speaker 1: behind the scenes on the on what happened with the negotiations.

430
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:34,880
Speaker 1: All right, Rob, thanks for the call, appreciate it. Let's

431
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,119
Speaker 1: keep moving here. Let me go to a text question

432
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 1: from Dan and Philly. He said, what's your thoughts on

433
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 1: the kickoff rules? His past cowboys? Russell Maryland? So Maryland

434
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 1: one of the three number one overall picks in Cowboys history,

435
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 1: probably ranked third on that list, I would say, behind

436
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:56,199
Speaker 1: eight men and two tall Jones, still number one overall

437
00:22:56,200 --> 00:23:02,719
Speaker 1: pick ninety one? Thoughts on the new kickoff rule? You know,

438
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 1: hold on, Chris is my ear Chris, what you got

439
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:12,440
Speaker 1: that's okay? All right, all right, let's start with let's

440
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 1: go with the kickoff rules. Sorry, we're having little technical

441
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,880
Speaker 1: issues today here all. Sorry, we had some last week too.

442
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 1: This is better than last week. I promise you that.

443
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,399
Speaker 1: I think kickoff rules are going to be interesting. I mean,

444
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 1: it's just gonna be I mean, there's a lot more

445
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:29,120
Speaker 1: strategy than it ever was. I mean, I mean, I'm

446
00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 1: not saying it was always just kick it deep and

447
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 1: go cover. But you know they had different plays, you know,

448
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,119
Speaker 1: different rules you could do. But this one, you know,

449
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 1: the ball could be at the twenty yard line, it

450
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 1: could be at the thirty and then or you could

451
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:46,879
Speaker 1: just kick it off and see what happens. Take your chances.

452
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:49,920
Speaker 1: I think a guy like Turpin has a chance that

453
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 1: he's gonna have a lot more open space. You know,

454
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,680
Speaker 1: the team's the kickoff team's gonna be at the forty

455
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,399
Speaker 1: yard line, and then the receiving team is gonna be

456
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:01,840
Speaker 1: in like the twenty five to thirty range, So you're

457
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 1: looking at about ten yards there to block and they

458
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,760
Speaker 1: can't Neither team can move until the ball is caught.

459
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 1: So you know you could catch it Turpid could catch

460
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 1: this thing seven eight yards deep. But with a running start,

461
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:16,719
Speaker 1: you know, then it's it's just going to be a battle.

462
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 1: Can you get to the thirty because if you're not

463
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,879
Speaker 1: getting to the thirty, then then you should probably just

464
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 1: you know, let it go or kneel it down and

465
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 1: take the ball at the thirty yard line, which is

466
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 1: a pretty good starting field position. But there's a lot

467
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 1: of open room there. So I'm anxious to see how

468
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,159
Speaker 1: the kick, how the kicking team is going to handle it.

469
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 1: You know, does everybody go forward to do all ten

470
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:43,320
Speaker 1: guys go forward? Because if you just if he pops

471
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 1: it once, I mean, it's just him and the kicker,

472
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,200
Speaker 1: So I like my chances there, I would think with

473
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:51,480
Speaker 1: any return specialists there. So it'll be it'll be interesting

474
00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 1: to see that that that'll be a new dynamic of

475
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 1: football that we just haven't seen and that's exciting to me.

476
00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:01,119
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to our next car is running

477
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 1: in New Jersey.

478
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:04,560
Speaker 2: Hey, Nick, how are you doing?

479
00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:04,960
Speaker 1: Running?

480
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:10,720
Speaker 9: Not too bad? How are you going? I'm good with

481
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 9: everything that everybody's talking about and what Bob was mentioning

482
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:22,200
Speaker 9: and everybody else. Honestly, I see this and with what

483
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:24,919
Speaker 9: you just mentioned about net year's salary cap, they're going

484
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 9: to be what thirty forty million dollars under with dead money.

485
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:33,719
Speaker 9: That right there tells you everything. Like they weren't active

486
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:38,360
Speaker 9: in free agency, they didn't extend dakh and all these

487
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,560
Speaker 9: other players that they could have. I think the windows

488
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 9: closed basically and without they went all in last year,

489
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 9: it didn't get done. I don't if if we as

490
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:58,920
Speaker 9: fans like I think we should just lower the expectations.

491
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:02,880
Speaker 9: And at the same time, you can't sign and resign

492
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,720
Speaker 9: everybody you have on your team. I get you know

493
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 9: you wanted to. I want to tie on Smith's back.

494
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:11,360
Speaker 9: But if there's no money, there's no money and you draft.

495
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 9: This is a draft and build team through the draft. Right, Well,

496
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 9: we've been drafting players that haven't played these last two years.

497
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:24,920
Speaker 9: Our first three picks last year didn't really contribute that much.

498
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 9: You got to give these guys a chance. You got

499
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 9: to give the guys from the year before a chance

500
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,920
Speaker 9: to see what they got for ko. I know these

501
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:37,360
Speaker 9: guys that they drafted. Yeah, we're changing scheme and everything.

502
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 9: So now you got to draft players according to what

503
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:44,760
Speaker 9: Mike Simmer wants. As a bigger defensive tackles, bigger linebackers,

504
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:48,760
Speaker 9: and we have small linebackers, small defensive tackles, so you're

505
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:51,159
Speaker 9: changing a lot. This is not going to be in

506
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 9: my eyes, I don't see this as a one year turnaround.

507
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,680
Speaker 9: I see this in a two year turnaround because that

508
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,800
Speaker 9: year the salary captain. We're strapped right now and we

509
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,200
Speaker 9: couldn't sign guys that we wanted this year. I don't

510
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,960
Speaker 9: see are signing guys next year, and I see there's

511
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,720
Speaker 9: a ah these next two drafts for the future. Whether

512
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:13,680
Speaker 9: they want to say, no, no, we're all in this year,

513
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:14,680
Speaker 9: I don't believe they're.

514
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,920
Speaker 1: They didn't say that they're not thanks for the call running,

515
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,680
Speaker 1: and they didn't say that we've established that. They didn't

516
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,720
Speaker 1: say that we're all in this year. That they're saying

517
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,359
Speaker 1: that we've basically been all in and this is the

518
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:30,240
Speaker 1: all in approach, and and and signing these guys, you

519
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,720
Speaker 1: know that they're going to have to re sign is

520
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,920
Speaker 1: their version of of all in if we're going to

521
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,439
Speaker 1: keep going down that road. But that's not you know

522
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,400
Speaker 1: that that's really not the way it should be interpreted,

523
00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 1: is how you guys think, And that that's that's just

524
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:45,760
Speaker 1: not the way it is. This isn't a poker game

525
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 1: where where they're they're actually pushing all the chips into

526
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 1: the table. They feel like they've already kind of been there.

527
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,320
Speaker 1: Now they got to deal with it. So yeah, like

528
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 1: you said, you know, it's going to be an uphill battle.

529
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:02,320
Speaker 1: It's not impossible because this team has drafted well and

530
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 1: and you know the guys that they not only have

531
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,800
Speaker 1: they drafted well, that they've developed them. And so that's

532
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 1: that's what has to happen here, is that you know,

533
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 1: there's probably fifteen guys that are younger that need to

534
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,879
Speaker 1: take that leap, but you know there's about five that

535
00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 1: just have to. I mean, like Jalen Tolbert, Like this

536
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,840
Speaker 1: has to be the year. I mean Jalen Tolbert, he

537
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 1: has to be Michael Gallup third round pick, that is

538
00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:35,359
Speaker 1: it's time to do something. Sam Williams, I mean Sam

539
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 1: Williams that this is a huge opportunity for him with

540
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 1: Dorin's Armstrong gon and Dante Fowler gone. I mean, you know,

541
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 1: they drafted him in the second round to be a

542
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,800
Speaker 1: difference maker and and he's got to do that. He's

543
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 1: got to be able to be accountable, and you know

544
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 1: that somebody that they can depend on and on the

545
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 1: field and off and especially on the field, you know

546
00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:01,240
Speaker 1: where he's had some some penalties. But if he can

547
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 1: be a dynamic pass rusher and a difference maker opposite

548
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: of Micah, I mean, then you know you could have

549
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 1: something really special there. But you know, he's got a

550
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:13,440
Speaker 1: show that he can do that. And the list goes

551
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 1: on and on with those guys like that, but it's

552
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 1: going to take players like that and jumps like that.

553
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 1: You know that they need some They need a lot

554
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:26,560
Speaker 1: more Deron Bland picks and Jake Ferguson picks than you know,

555
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 1: anybody else. So then the Sean Wrights and Goldston and

556
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:33,200
Speaker 1: Kelvin Joseph and guys like that that you know, just

557
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 1: haven't panned out really right now, all right? I answered

558
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 1: this question earlier on the Kickoff Rules. Gavin from Oklahoma

559
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:46,560
Speaker 1: sent the text this is first time to text. He says,

560
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:48,959
Speaker 1: love the show. Thanks for letting the fans see how

561
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 1: other fans are feeling, what they're thinking every week, and

562
00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:53,520
Speaker 1: that that's really the big part of this. I mean,

563
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 1: that's kind of what the show is all about. Because

564
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 1: I know I know what happens all the time. You're like,

565
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 1: I think this way? Does anyone else you know how

566
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,480
Speaker 1: many sentences start that way? Does anyone else think like this?

567
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 1: And that's kind of what this show is designed to do.

568
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 1: He's asking about, do I think the kicking rule will

569
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 1: give Turpin a better chance to have greater impact? Shout

570
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 1: out to Turpin from my hometown in Monroe, Louisiana. What

571
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:20,920
Speaker 1: are your thoughts on the drop tackle rule? Shannon Gross

572
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 1: was also from Monroe, Louisiana, so shout out to him

573
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 1: as well. I think Terpin has an opportunity to to,

574
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 1: you know, to make some big plays. What you're trying

575
00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 1: to do is going to get him in the open field. Now,

576
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 1: I'm not saying every team has a Turpin, but every

577
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,520
Speaker 1: team's got to kick off return or that they probably

578
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,560
Speaker 1: like and so, uh, it's going to be it's gonna

579
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 1: be an issue on the other side too. I mean,

580
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:46,920
Speaker 1: you're gonna get a really good, you know, athletic return

581
00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:51,080
Speaker 1: specialist in space, and that's that's what it's designed to do.

582
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:55,080
Speaker 1: So on one hand, you have an opportunity for some

583
00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 1: big plays. On the other hand, you know, you you

584
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 1: you may not and so you know you've got a

585
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 1: kicker though that led the led the league in touchbacks

586
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 1: last year, broke an NFL record for touchbacks. I think

587
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:11,200
Speaker 1: it was ninety nine in the season Brandon Aubrey had.

588
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 1: So you can do that and start at the thirty.

589
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,200
Speaker 1: You know, just try to kick it deep, but it

590
00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:18,960
Speaker 1: doesn't always go that way. And uh, and then and

591
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,080
Speaker 1: then when if not, you have to return it. So

592
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 1: it's gonna be fun. It's gonna be fun strategy. I

593
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:25,480
Speaker 1: like that. I like that that rule change.

594
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 12: I like.

595
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:32,239
Speaker 1: The challenge the challenge rule change where that now, uh,

596
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:35,280
Speaker 1: as long as you get one of the two challenges correctly,

597
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,640
Speaker 1: you get a third one. Before it was if you

598
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 1: challenged early and you didn't get it, then you only

599
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 1: have one left. And you know that because you've already

600
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:47,160
Speaker 1: you have to go two for two. Now you only

601
00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:51,080
Speaker 1: have to go one for two to get a third challenge.

602
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 1: So basically, if you have two challenges and you miss

603
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:57,240
Speaker 1: them both, then you don't get any more coaches challenges.

604
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 1: The hip hip drop or whatever it's called, the hip

605
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:07,280
Speaker 1: drop tackle rule. I like it. I mean, I think

606
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 1: it probably happens more than than people think. I mean

607
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 1: there's probably very variations of it. This isn't like the

608
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 1: horse collar of did you grab the collar or did

609
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:18,840
Speaker 1: you not? I mean, it's kind of where you end

610
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:22,320
Speaker 1: up putting your legs and how the guy falls. And

611
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:24,480
Speaker 1: but you know that they've done a lot of studies

612
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:26,240
Speaker 1: to it, and you know, I mean the Cowboys lost

613
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 1: a playoff game because of it. I mean, I mean

614
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:31,720
Speaker 1: Tony Polar got hurt in the forty nine Ers game.

615
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 1: We all saw it and then the whole game change.

616
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,640
Speaker 1: So you know, that was that was big and that happened.

617
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:40,400
Speaker 1: So you know, there's there's a lot of times that

618
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 1: there seems like the Cowboys have lost playoff games and

619
00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:45,320
Speaker 1: they end up making rule changes like Daz catching the

620
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 1: ball you and and like Romo dropping the block of

621
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 1: ice that came out to him within the snap in Seattle,

622
00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:58,040
Speaker 1: which they changed the rules on that. Where now now

623
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 1: the other team's ball boys came just throw out kicking

624
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:04,440
Speaker 1: balls anymore. They actually have an NFL official that has

625
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:09,200
Speaker 1: the kicking balls himself. It's not just somebody from Seattle

626
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:11,880
Speaker 1: just taking out, you know, the sixth the ball in

627
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:15,040
Speaker 1: the bag and throwing it out there. So you know,

628
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,840
Speaker 1: things happen in the playoffs. You know, playoff games is

629
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:22,160
Speaker 1: where things always tend to change rules. We saw that

630
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:25,000
Speaker 1: when overtime was the Bills and the Chiefs. You know,

631
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,520
Speaker 1: Josh Allen didn't get a turn, so they had to

632
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 1: change it, and you know, they had to change the rule.

633
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 1: We're now in the playoffs, both teams get a turn.

634
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 1: And then we saw it this year. It was at

635
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,000
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. We saw it where and everyone even

636
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:40,640
Speaker 1: knows the rules. All right, let's go through Ali. He's

637
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 1: in Iceland.

638
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:44,880
Speaker 10: A little misstatement.

639
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 1: How are you doing?

640
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:47,840
Speaker 10: Pretty good? Care? How about you?

641
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:48,920
Speaker 1: I'm good.

642
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:53,760
Speaker 10: I tried to call last show, but I'm here covering

643
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:58,440
Speaker 10: up the volcano. He's hot and the work shifts, so

644
00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 10: you're gonna pay attention. Pull up to sell coverage is bad.

645
00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:06,200
Speaker 10: I got the I gotta comment and a question. I

646
00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:11,359
Speaker 10: got an awesome trivia for you. Okay, the last call.

647
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:16,040
Speaker 10: The last time I called, I think I couldn't explain

648
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:17,120
Speaker 10: what I meant.

649
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:17,440
Speaker 2: I know.

650
00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:24,239
Speaker 10: Cowboys draft well, especially lower traffics and free agents. My

651
00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 10: question tried to explain was the sanity of this salary

652
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:37,880
Speaker 10: cap is? It's mind bogling and Cowboys always being thread

653
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:41,840
Speaker 10: center that I said, a lot of trends in the NFL.

654
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 10: Whoever is going to figure out this salary cap sanity,

655
00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,839
Speaker 10: they're going to have the very success because this year

656
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:53,239
Speaker 10: is just going going up and down with every team.

657
00:34:53,760 --> 00:35:00,759
Speaker 10: The question I have for you is can't I tribute

658
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:08,840
Speaker 10: for the t shirt agenda for a storyline Cowboys Nations?

659
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:13,720
Speaker 1: I thought you were gonna have like a serious, serious question,

660
00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:16,360
Speaker 1: and maybe that is serious. It was.

661
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:22,320
Speaker 10: Something else, yeah, because you know neck, honestly, I still

662
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:25,359
Speaker 10: haven't gone over the Green Bay. I forget about it.

663
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 10: Then it just burnt. It was such a great opportunity.

664
00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:31,520
Speaker 10: I know if I've heard, I know a lot of

665
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:35,919
Speaker 10: Cowboys out there feeling the head as well, because it's

666
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,880
Speaker 10: just like it's been so long and I feel like

667
00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,360
Speaker 10: we are like a New York Yankee La Laker. You

668
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:43,759
Speaker 10: are so good, but we don't win anything, you know.

669
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 10: So but here's my trivia for you. Fit inside of

670
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:52,960
Speaker 10: the volcano, just watching the paint dry. So I de

671
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:56,319
Speaker 10: barring it myself. I swear to that. So you can

672
00:35:56,520 --> 00:36:00,319
Speaker 10: ask Chris for help if you wish to. So here

673
00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:07,000
Speaker 10: you go. Okay, how many ex Cowboys players being drafted

674
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:14,680
Speaker 10: by Dallas Cowboys, or signed as an undrafted free agent,

675
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:21,280
Speaker 10: left the Cowboys and won the Super Bowl with another

676
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:25,360
Speaker 10: team excluding the Marcus.

677
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:29,640
Speaker 1: Where why why why are we excluding him?

678
00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:32,480
Speaker 10: Because that is the obvious one.

679
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:32,600
Speaker 12: You know.

680
00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 1: So somebody the Cowboys drafted or they brought in as

681
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:41,240
Speaker 1: undrafted so they were on the team. Then they left

682
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:43,920
Speaker 1: and they and they came back and then they won

683
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 1: a super Bowl.

684
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:48,640
Speaker 10: They won the Super Bowl with the other team.

685
00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:49,320
Speaker 4: This is easy.

686
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 1: Are you asking how many?

687
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:53,320
Speaker 4: Yeah?

688
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:56,320
Speaker 10: Or just lame me three?

689
00:36:56,600 --> 00:37:01,239
Speaker 1: I got one? Okay, we are all right. That's a

690
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:06,040
Speaker 1: good one. That's a good one. Appreciate that we're gonna

691
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,200
Speaker 1: we have to do this right now. Can we go

692
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,399
Speaker 1: through the whole? Can we go through the You.

693
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 10: Can't do it? But by the way, I don't I

694
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,120
Speaker 10: usually call one so twice a month. I don't want

695
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:19,239
Speaker 10: to hog the phone, give you opportunity. All the new

696
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:22,759
Speaker 10: phone calls up coming, right, So so I just try

697
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,120
Speaker 10: to mind mind my manners. Plus, nobody want to hear

698
00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:28,160
Speaker 10: from me every every every week, you know, right right right?

699
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:33,440
Speaker 1: But I hang up on this there covering well volcano

700
00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:39,000
Speaker 1: in Iceland. Awesome, all right, let's go, let's go to

701
00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:40,200
Speaker 1: josh In Chicago.

702
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:46,200
Speaker 2: Gosh, hey, Nick, how you doing?

703
00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:50,640
Speaker 7: Sorry about that. I couldn't hear you at first, So

704
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:54,440
Speaker 7: not too bad here. Like most fans, you know, I

705
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:57,359
Speaker 7: understand Jerry didn't, you know, exactly come out and say

706
00:37:57,400 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 7: all in. But the thing I've been thinking about with

707
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:03,279
Speaker 7: this the whole comment isn't so much free agency. I

708
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:06,000
Speaker 7: think we all know their approach. It's the in season

709
00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:09,000
Speaker 7: trades that kind of bugged me personally. You're looking back

710
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,319
Speaker 7: at twenty twenty two, I kind of wonder why they

711
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:13,319
Speaker 7: didn't pull the trigger on Brandon Cooks until the off

712
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:16,320
Speaker 7: season of last year, right when we needed offensive weapons.

713
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,360
Speaker 7: And I think if we're looking for all in as fans,

714
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:21,880
Speaker 7: maybe we shouldn't be upset about free agency, but maybe

715
00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:24,800
Speaker 7: be more looking to what they actually do in the season.

716
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 7: If they need a piece like a linebacker, or they

717
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:30,440
Speaker 7: need a defensive tackle, or they need a running back

718
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,600
Speaker 7: this season, do we actually pull the trigger on giving

719
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:34,920
Speaker 7: up some of the future, then what we know what

720
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:38,399
Speaker 7: the team actually is, Especially now that I think they're

721
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:40,759
Speaker 7: moving one of the rules I think, or one of

722
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:44,400
Speaker 7: the changes coming out is they're moving the date for

723
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:47,759
Speaker 7: the trade deadline now I think as well, so it

724
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:49,799
Speaker 7: might be more interesting to see where the team's at

725
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:51,879
Speaker 7: in week nine, I think is what they said they're

726
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,719
Speaker 7: going to change it to and see if there's a

727
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:56,839
Speaker 7: trade piece that we should give up for and maybe

728
00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:58,040
Speaker 7: go all in at that point.

729
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:02,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean I like that. I do like

730
00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:05,200
Speaker 1: that the trade deadline getting pushed back. I don't really

731
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:07,759
Speaker 1: understand why they didn't in the first place. I think

732
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 1: it's only like fifty five percent of the season is

733
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:13,600
Speaker 1: being played, and that was very low. They were playing

734
00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:16,359
Speaker 1: at like forty percent of the season before they moved it,

735
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,680
Speaker 1: before you know, they close the trade deadline, so it

736
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:22,000
Speaker 1: makes more sense to me. I like that one.

737
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:24,520
Speaker 7: And then the only question I have for you, and

738
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:27,000
Speaker 7: I'm not sure if this was how it was last season,

739
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 7: but I noticed that Hunter Lipkey was mot or his

740
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,440
Speaker 7: the on the depth chart and the roster it actually

741
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:36,200
Speaker 7: lists him as a running back now. So I don't

742
00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 7: know if they plan on maybe using him more as

743
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 7: a running back than a fall back this year, or

744
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:42,960
Speaker 7: if they've completely changed it and said, hey, the mindset

745
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,279
Speaker 7: is your running back now. But I noticed that was

746
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:46,879
Speaker 7: a change. I was wondering if you may have heard

747
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:47,560
Speaker 7: anything about that.

748
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:51,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't. I don't know if there's a change

749
00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:53,880
Speaker 1: so so much on that. I mean, I think I

750
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:57,319
Speaker 1: think he's he's going to play some running back. I

751
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,239
Speaker 1: think that, you know, but the idea is to keep

752
00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:02,960
Speaker 1: him kind of in a hybrid full back h back

753
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:06,120
Speaker 1: type role. I don't think he's necessarily going to be

754
00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:09,040
Speaker 1: like a running back, but you know, they feel like that,

755
00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:11,040
Speaker 1: you know, they can get him the football if as

756
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 1: long as he hangs on to it. I mean, you

757
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:14,640
Speaker 1: know that that was he fumbled in Miami and I

758
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:17,560
Speaker 1: don't think he got another carry the rest of the season. So, uh,

759
00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:19,520
Speaker 1: he's gonna he's got to prove to them, you know

760
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:21,000
Speaker 1: that he can do that for sure.

761
00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:22,920
Speaker 2: Well good talking to.

762
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:25,919
Speaker 7: A storyline team this year.

763
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,640
Speaker 1: All right, going for it. I love it, And thanks

764
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:30,960
Speaker 1: for the call. Let's go back. And Ali had said that,

765
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:35,719
Speaker 1: but he was asking to pay for the shirts. You know,

766
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:37,520
Speaker 1: I think we got I think we had the money

767
00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:39,440
Speaker 1: for that. I mean, I mean, I know, Jerry, you

768
00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:41,919
Speaker 1: know the salary cap, they're kind of they're under the cap,

769
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,839
Speaker 1: but you know, we might have a few bucks where

770
00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:48,080
Speaker 1: we could do that. We'll see, we'll see. We got

771
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:52,920
Speaker 1: kind of a strict cap. Specialist in our department too. Well,

772
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 1: we'll see. That's the goals. Get some get some T

773
00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:59,600
Speaker 1: shirts for the for the all storyline. Uh team members. Uh,

774
00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:01,360
Speaker 1: there was a few of them. I mean there was.

775
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:03,879
Speaker 1: There was definitely a few that made it. I think

776
00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:07,840
Speaker 1: I think I did twenty four, maybe thirty two. I

777
00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:10,080
Speaker 1: think at thirty two if you count some honorable mentions,

778
00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:12,080
Speaker 1: then we had a few more. So almost almost up

779
00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 1: to fifty. But that's okay, all right, good stuff, let's go.

780
00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:21,879
Speaker 1: The trivia question that Ali asked was which players were

781
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:26,719
Speaker 1: drafted by the Cowboys, either drafted or signed in free agency,

782
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,520
Speaker 1: and then went on to win a Super Bowl. And

783
00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:32,720
Speaker 1: he's taking DeMarcus wear out because that was too easy.

784
00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:36,399
Speaker 1: So he said there were three. I mean I've got

785
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:38,600
Speaker 1: I've got four. Chris, you said there was an easy

786
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:44,080
Speaker 1: one maybe on the phone. Now there is an easy one. Walls.

787
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:50,760
Speaker 1: Everson Walls. Okay, did Neverson Walls free agent by the Cowboys?

788
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:53,520
Speaker 1: I mean I went on and won the Super Bowl

789
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:57,120
Speaker 1: with the Giants, right, yeah, yeah, I mean Damian Wilson, Right,

790
00:41:57,160 --> 00:42:01,759
Speaker 1: I've got Gervarious Ward, Ken Norton Junior, Anthony Hitchins, Dandell

791
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,319
Speaker 1: got him yeah, So I don't know if there's just three.

792
00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:07,080
Speaker 1: I may I think he just said just just name three.

793
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,759
Speaker 1: So yeah, there's definitely he just said name three. So

794
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,600
Speaker 1: those are three. I mean the Chiefs Chiefs are doing

795
00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:16,839
Speaker 1: that for collecting them. Yeah, but Ken Norton Junior did

796
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:21,399
Speaker 1: it in you know, ninety ninety four, I mean yeah,

797
00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:23,520
Speaker 1: ninety four. I mean he had you know, went to

798
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:25,960
Speaker 1: went to the forty nine ers, so he won actually

799
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:29,960
Speaker 1: won three straight Super Bowls ninety two, ninety three, ninety four. Yeah,

800
00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:33,480
Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't think of of Everson Walls should have.

801
00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:37,439
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, in those eighties, those eighties guys

802
00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:41,440
Speaker 1: like that, there wasn't wasn't a lot. I mean, Steve Diassi,

803
00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:44,520
Speaker 1: I don't know, he might have won one in ninety

804
00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:47,600
Speaker 1: if you really want to put it here, Isaiah standback.

805
00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:49,960
Speaker 1: He has a Super Bowl with the Giant. Yep, he

806
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:54,360
Speaker 1: was drafted here. So yeah, yeah, Isaiah Isaiah standback. Yeah

807
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:56,920
Speaker 1: that counts. Why'd you whisper Chris?

808
00:42:57,360 --> 00:42:59,319
Speaker 6: I'm just thinking, I mean, he didn't play in the game,

809
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:00,480
Speaker 6: but he was part of teams.

810
00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:03,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, phones ringing, you get answered back there?

811
00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:06,359
Speaker 1: All right? Jeff in Salt Lake City, Utah.

812
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:07,879
Speaker 10: Hey, Nick, how you doing.

813
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:08,879
Speaker 1: I'm good. How you doing?

814
00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:12,680
Speaker 12: I'm all right. Just wanted to bring up a past player.

815
00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:15,120
Speaker 12: Do you remember Kareem Larimore, West Texas A and M.

816
00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:17,080
Speaker 1: Yes, I remember.

817
00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:21,319
Speaker 12: I believe that was the Dwayne Goodrich's draft, as well

818
00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:24,600
Speaker 12: as Mario Edwards, and I believe back then they said

819
00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:27,200
Speaker 12: that he had the most talent at all the three corners.

820
00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:30,160
Speaker 1: I remember walking out on the practice field at the

821
00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:33,440
Speaker 1: first Roocky mini camp and one of the scouts said

822
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:38,440
Speaker 1: that Larimore's got the quickest feat he's seen since Dion Sanders.

823
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:42,759
Speaker 1: Of course, I was like, you gotta remember I went

824
00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:45,800
Speaker 1: to college at Midwestern State University to Division two school

825
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:48,040
Speaker 1: here in Texas and one of the rival schools is

826
00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:50,759
Speaker 1: West Texas A and M. So Kareem Larimore, I kind

827
00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:52,960
Speaker 1: of I had. I had heard of him for sure

828
00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 1: there at at at w T up there by Amarillo,

829
00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:01,960
Speaker 1: and so I'd heard of him, and I knew he

830
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:04,840
Speaker 1: was a really talented player. Just had some you know,

831
00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:06,719
Speaker 1: off the field issues to kind of deal with, but

832
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:09,520
Speaker 1: you know, he was. He never really panned out. He

833
00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:13,879
Speaker 1: actually played in the Arena League for the Dallas Esperadoes,

834
00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:16,760
Speaker 1: but yeah.

835
00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:17,440
Speaker 6: I do.

836
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:19,719
Speaker 1: I do remember him a little bit, and I just

837
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:22,200
Speaker 1: you know, I always was like rooting for him. I

838
00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:23,920
Speaker 1: always thought he was going to be, you know, a

839
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:27,080
Speaker 1: good player. He just just didn't didn't didn't pan out,

840
00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:28,040
Speaker 1: It didn't work out, you know.

841
00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:31,439
Speaker 12: I always I love the skill guys. So I brought

842
00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:35,799
Speaker 12: up another corner, just like Aaron or Derek Ross last week. Yeah,

843
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:38,520
Speaker 12: I gotta gotta got a thing for the skill guys.

844
00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:41,520
Speaker 12: But I wanted to ask you a question. I told

845
00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:44,239
Speaker 12: Chris I I hadn't been listening today, so sorry if

846
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:47,960
Speaker 12: I repeat anything, but just finding out today about the

847
00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:51,160
Speaker 12: surgeries for Mozzi and Scoon Maker, and my question is

848
00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:55,000
Speaker 12: more based towards Mazzy Smith with Hank and signing with Seattle.

849
00:44:56,480 --> 00:45:00,560
Speaker 12: Probably gonna be a big year for Mazzi. Probably are tackle.

850
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:02,359
Speaker 12: I believe Zim says they're going to try to put

851
00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:05,080
Speaker 12: weight on him, but put the weight back on him

852
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:08,400
Speaker 12: to be a nose tackle. With the shoulder surgery and

853
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,400
Speaker 12: not being able to go through the offseason workout routine

854
00:45:11,440 --> 00:45:16,520
Speaker 12: and probably lifting like that, you think it's obviously injuries

855
00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:19,319
Speaker 12: a setback, but we're going to need him this year.

856
00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:21,080
Speaker 12: What are your thoughts on that, you think it's going

857
00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:23,680
Speaker 12: to be pretty difficult for him to gain that weight

858
00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:27,040
Speaker 12: back and get that strength back that he was known

859
00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:29,920
Speaker 12: for Michigan, because yeah, we're really going to need him

860
00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:32,120
Speaker 12: to stop the run this year. So just wanted your

861
00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:32,759
Speaker 12: thoughts on that.

862
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:35,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, a little disappointing that does hear about that, especially

863
00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:38,799
Speaker 1: a guy that needs to have a great offseason. What

864
00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:41,799
Speaker 1: if you're losing weight, gain and weight whatever it is,

865
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:43,640
Speaker 1: just get to the weight you need to be at

866
00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:47,600
Speaker 1: strength to strength, You're going to be strong. He's very

867
00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:51,200
Speaker 1: very strong already, but it's unfortunate that you're dealing with

868
00:45:51,239 --> 00:45:53,160
Speaker 1: that and he's going to be out a lot, you know,

869
00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:56,279
Speaker 1: a lot of the offseason. You know, that's that That

870
00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:58,520
Speaker 1: was the issue I thought was scoon Maker. Last year

871
00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 1: he missed some time in the offseason and then just

872
00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:04,960
Speaker 1: didn't really get into the flow. So I don't think

873
00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:06,560
Speaker 1: he's going to be in that same level. But I

874
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:10,480
Speaker 1: do Scoonmaker. I think he's much further along different surgery.

875
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:13,560
Speaker 1: But but yeah, down of a setback there, especially when

876
00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,560
Speaker 1: you when you consider you've lost Gallimore, you've lost Hankins,

877
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:18,759
Speaker 1: and so you know, I don't know if they're going

878
00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:20,759
Speaker 1: to draft the defensive tackle right off the bat. But

879
00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:24,040
Speaker 1: they're they're they're definitely thin at that at that spot.

880
00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:27,880
Speaker 12: Right And I know I mean strictly him and Osa

881
00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:32,840
Speaker 12: right now. So I just I hope that the pressure

882
00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:36,120
Speaker 12: isn't too big for him, especially now with the loss

883
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:38,719
Speaker 12: of d tackles and stuff like that and having to

884
00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:41,799
Speaker 12: go through the offseason workout or not being able to

885
00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:43,680
Speaker 12: go through the off season routine like I'm sure he

886
00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:46,560
Speaker 12: was hoping to. So I just I hope he succeeds.

887
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:50,360
Speaker 12: Being an Ohio State fan, the rivalry they have with Michigan,

888
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:52,520
Speaker 12: he's he was a really good player in college, So

889
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:55,720
Speaker 12: I hope he. I hope he is able to figure

890
00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:58,760
Speaker 12: it out and succeed this year. So I just wanted

891
00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:00,799
Speaker 12: to talk to you about that. And so thanks again

892
00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:03,239
Speaker 12: for taking my call. And I'm going for that old storyline.

893
00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:05,960
Speaker 1: You are. You definitely are, I think called three or

894
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:09,040
Speaker 1: four times in a row. Appreciate it. Thank you so much, Jeff,

895
00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:12,680
Speaker 1: Jeff and Salt Lake City you tall. His numbers are

896
00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:16,239
Speaker 1: getting up there as well. All right, let's go to

897
00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:21,359
Speaker 1: Danny in Kentucky. First time caller, Danny.

898
00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:23,640
Speaker 13: Yeah, Yeah, first time caller, how's it going today?

899
00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:28,760
Speaker 1: There we go, here we go. Now, it's efficient.

900
00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:31,600
Speaker 2: How you doing doing pretty good?

901
00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:32,600
Speaker 4: I just wanted to call.

902
00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:35,120
Speaker 13: I listened to you all the time. I love all

903
00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:37,439
Speaker 13: the shows. Listen to all the shows. Love Brian brought

904
00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:40,560
Speaker 13: us a lot. Listen to him. I wander fan too.

905
00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:43,600
Speaker 13: But I had a question that I know a lot

906
00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:47,000
Speaker 13: of the fans have called in and talked about. But

907
00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:53,360
Speaker 13: if you had an option to trade Prescott de Prescott

908
00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:58,960
Speaker 13: and Micah Parsons and get in the first first three

909
00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:01,960
Speaker 13: picks this year and the most picture you can get

910
00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:05,560
Speaker 13: from Miya And obviously Dak has a no trade clause,

911
00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:09,080
Speaker 13: but I do know that there are pressures and things

912
00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:12,520
Speaker 13: you can do to try to even if you have

913
00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:14,440
Speaker 13: to pay some of his salary, like some of the

914
00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:18,960
Speaker 13: other teams have done to trade him Draft one, two

915
00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:21,399
Speaker 13: or three the quarterback this year one two or three.

916
00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:23,360
Speaker 13: I think all three of those guys are pretty strong,

917
00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:30,360
Speaker 13: and load up on free agents. Now you have eighty

918
00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:33,799
Speaker 13: million dollars of salary cap money to go out there

919
00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:37,440
Speaker 13: and try to win this year. When's your thoughts on that?

920
00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:43,680
Speaker 1: Well, I mean that seems seems pretty fairytale like, but

921
00:48:45,080 --> 00:48:48,080
Speaker 1: I'll be honest, if I traded Dak and I had

922
00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:49,920
Speaker 1: one of the top three picks, I don't think I'm

923
00:48:49,960 --> 00:48:54,160
Speaker 1: taking a quarterback, so, which I know that sounds weird, probably,

924
00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:57,120
Speaker 1: but I don't think I wouldn't do that. If I

925
00:48:57,160 --> 00:48:58,839
Speaker 1: was in the top three picks, I would not draft

926
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:02,000
Speaker 1: the quarterback this year. So that's just my take.

927
00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:05,319
Speaker 2: Why would you not draft the quarterback.

928
00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:09,680
Speaker 1: I don't think you have to take a quarterback because

929
00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:13,279
Speaker 1: they're the considered the top. I think if you get

930
00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:15,840
Speaker 1: if you get a quarterback that is a you know,

931
00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:20,680
Speaker 1: going to be a generational type player. Yes, I'm for that,

932
00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:23,440
Speaker 1: but I think these guys are just the best of

933
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:26,240
Speaker 1: the of the group right now. And I still don't

934
00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:29,239
Speaker 1: think I wouldn't trust them to say these are going

935
00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:31,600
Speaker 1: to be the you know. I I think if you

936
00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:36,160
Speaker 1: go with position players, you know, I mean you think

937
00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:38,640
Speaker 1: about the quarterbacks. You get top quarterbacks up there, they

938
00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:41,680
Speaker 1: don't always work out most of the time. If you

939
00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:45,080
Speaker 1: get a if you get an offensive lineman or receiver

940
00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:49,760
Speaker 1: or something, they're usually pretty good pass rusher. Those guys

941
00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:52,680
Speaker 1: are good. So I don't know. I mean, I'm not

942
00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:55,440
Speaker 1: saying if Joe Burrow comes wrong, you take him at

943
00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:58,040
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence. Yeah, but I don't. I don't feel that

944
00:49:58,040 --> 00:50:00,560
Speaker 1: way about Caleb Williams. I don't feel that way about

945
00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:04,759
Speaker 1: May even jayde Daniels. And then now you've got McCarthy coming.

946
00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:07,399
Speaker 1: I just I don't know, I don't feel I don't

947
00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:10,200
Speaker 1: what's weird is that McCarthy's getting jumped up because of

948
00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:13,319
Speaker 1: his record. Well, if that's the case, you know what,

949
00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:15,239
Speaker 1: why is Caleb Williams up so high? You know what

950
00:50:15,239 --> 00:50:17,399
Speaker 1: I mean? So it's just kind of weird. I neither

951
00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:20,000
Speaker 1: one of those guys. And then I'm sorry I didn't

952
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:22,480
Speaker 1: play along with the question there. I just I probably

953
00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:25,839
Speaker 1: would draft different guys. I would draft, you know, maybe

954
00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:28,680
Speaker 1: the best offensive lineman or maybe one of those pass

955
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:31,520
Speaker 1: rushers or something like that. I don't know. I just

956
00:50:31,560 --> 00:50:34,560
Speaker 1: see too many quarterbacks drafted in the middle rounds Dak included.

957
00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:36,840
Speaker 1: That can get the job done. Now you have to

958
00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:39,319
Speaker 1: deal with some bumps and bruises there, but for the

959
00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:42,439
Speaker 1: most part, you know, I just I don't. I don't

960
00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:44,759
Speaker 1: get pressured into taking a quarterback just because you kind

961
00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:46,960
Speaker 1: of need one, and these guys are considered the best.

962
00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:48,319
Speaker 1: There's just been too many.

963
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:52,160
Speaker 13: I agree, on that completely. I agree that it just

964
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:55,439
Speaker 13: resets that five year money that you're paying Dak after

965
00:50:55,520 --> 00:50:56,120
Speaker 13: eight years.

966
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:57,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, feel we need.

967
00:50:57,400 --> 00:51:00,000
Speaker 13: To reset that money and get that's why all these

968
00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:03,840
Speaker 13: teams are now winning. And again, the top three picks

969
00:51:03,880 --> 00:51:05,800
Speaker 13: I would do this year is the center from Oregon,

970
00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:09,959
Speaker 13: Sweat from Texas, and that Peyton Wilson linebacker in the third.

971
00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:12,160
Speaker 4: If you can do that, yeah, and then if you.

972
00:51:12,239 --> 00:51:14,879
Speaker 13: Just reset it with all this money that you got

973
00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:17,719
Speaker 13: going on, and then you're adding these free agents, you

974
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:20,759
Speaker 13: have a great chance. And I think again brought us

975
00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:22,520
Speaker 13: some of these guys they're talking about, they're they're kind

976
00:51:22,560 --> 00:51:25,040
Speaker 13: of resetting it now and not telling anybody.

977
00:51:25,239 --> 00:51:29,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, maybe, but yeah, Sweat from Texas, boy,

978
00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:32,400
Speaker 1: he definitely looks good. I mean, he looks like a

979
00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:34,359
Speaker 1: good player. And Murphy from Texas too.

980
00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:35,560
Speaker 2: Yeah.

981
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:39,799
Speaker 1: So all right, well, Danny, how's your bracket looking?

982
00:51:41,239 --> 00:51:42,440
Speaker 13: You know, not too bad.

983
00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:43,680
Speaker 4: I grew up in North Carolina.

984
00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:46,640
Speaker 13: I live in Kentucky now, but I'm big Tar Hills fans.

985
00:51:46,680 --> 00:51:48,560
Speaker 1: Oh okay, so you're doing good?

986
00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:52,200
Speaker 13: Yeah you mean me, Hollypy win the whole thing this year?

987
00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:57,240
Speaker 1: Nice? Uh yeah, most most practice from Kentucky probably aren't doing.

988
00:51:57,360 --> 00:51:59,640
Speaker 13: So no, no, no, no, that's I make fun of

989
00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:02,760
Speaker 13: those guys every day. We have a good time with that.

990
00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:06,680
Speaker 1: Nice all right, thanks for the call, appreciate it all right,

991
00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:10,560
Speaker 1: first time caller there from Kentucky. Not a first time caller.

992
00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:13,759
Speaker 1: This will be our last call. Tenth called Anthony in Miami.

993
00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:17,239
Speaker 1: Let's close this thing out right, Anthony, what's up Nick?

994
00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:17,719
Speaker 9: The quick?

995
00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:19,640
Speaker 4: Let's close it out all right? Maybe how you doing?

996
00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:22,160
Speaker 1: I'm good man, always thinking every time you say that,

997
00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:23,960
Speaker 1: every time you call. I just think if Nick Van

998
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:26,560
Speaker 1: Exell coming up down the court, you know, like doing

999
00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:30,680
Speaker 1: his little like all. I think it's a little punching air.

1000
00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:33,719
Speaker 1: You know, Nick x fight, never been in a fight

1001
00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:35,719
Speaker 1: in his life, but he always did that. I loved him.

1002
00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:40,160
Speaker 4: He was always exactly exactly check this out. Let's close

1003
00:52:40,200 --> 00:52:43,239
Speaker 4: it out right then, Hey man, you said some important stuff, man,

1004
00:52:43,239 --> 00:52:45,960
Speaker 4: and I hope that people listen. Last week about other

1005
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:48,279
Speaker 4: guys stepping up. You know, I tried to bring that

1006
00:52:48,360 --> 00:52:49,759
Speaker 4: up a couple of weeks ago, but not in the

1007
00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:52,440
Speaker 4: right way. But you you know, on that line, you know,

1008
00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:55,200
Speaker 4: bass Hoffman, they've got some action. They can do some

1009
00:52:55,239 --> 00:52:58,040
Speaker 4: things that kind of interchangeable guard and center. That might work,

1010
00:52:58,320 --> 00:53:01,880
Speaker 4: you know Brooks and the other wide receiver Jalen tober

1011
00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:05,200
Speaker 4: is time. Let's go step into your roles and the safety.

1012
00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:07,160
Speaker 4: I really I didn't want another say I don't want

1013
00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:10,000
Speaker 4: a freeze and say I want I think Thomas number

1014
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,719
Speaker 4: thirty and that gut twenty four on mccarmell. You know

1015
00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:15,400
Speaker 4: it's time and bail. Let's see what you got back there. Man,

1016
00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:17,040
Speaker 4: we don't need to spend money on that. I think

1017
00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:19,919
Speaker 4: we got some guys, some studs, actually, I really do.

1018
00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:21,960
Speaker 1: They're gonna find out. And I don't know if I

1019
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:24,960
Speaker 1: disagree with you. I mean, I really like Jane Thomas.

1020
00:53:25,160 --> 00:53:27,000
Speaker 1: I think he has a chance to be a really

1021
00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:31,160
Speaker 1: good player. He's always around the ball, always doing some things.

1022
00:53:31,360 --> 00:53:32,960
Speaker 1: I like him a lot, and I think he just

1023
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:33,919
Speaker 1: needs more playing time.

1024
00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:38,560
Speaker 4: And he was on the Girls Their Girl Girls Talk Boys.

1025
00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:40,680
Speaker 4: I heard him on that podcast one time, right, he

1026
00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:42,960
Speaker 4: was there, and I mean, you know this guy, he

1027
00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:45,359
Speaker 4: knows the stuff and he wants to learn. So when

1028
00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:47,520
Speaker 4: you get a guy like that and I saw some talent,

1029
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:53,440
Speaker 4: you know that's it. Secondly, and last, once again, Michael Parsons, Man,

1030
00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:55,680
Speaker 4: I'm becoming a big Michael Parsons fan, and I know

1031
00:53:55,719 --> 00:53:58,160
Speaker 4: people are tired of him. Say he canceled out at

1032
00:53:58,200 --> 00:54:00,200
Speaker 4: the end of some games. Got a big mouth. Don't

1033
00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:03,160
Speaker 4: care about that. The man, what I'm saying is an anomaly.

1034
00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:05,759
Speaker 4: Trust me. I watch some more footage on them. I

1035
00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:07,640
Speaker 4: don't do no all twenty twos. I just watch some

1036
00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:10,680
Speaker 4: games we played. The guy would have had four more

1037
00:54:10,719 --> 00:54:13,600
Speaker 4: sacks easily. Look at the Seattle game with Geno, I

1038
00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:15,240
Speaker 4: mean the one when he had him on the ground

1039
00:54:15,239 --> 00:54:17,040
Speaker 4: and he should have been. I mean, they couldn't even

1040
00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:19,640
Speaker 4: block him. He gets through the line so quick. So

1041
00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:22,239
Speaker 4: all I can say is on defense, like how our

1042
00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:24,560
Speaker 4: offen should around that? Give him his weapons, give the

1043
00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:26,520
Speaker 4: man some help. You know, you got to cover him

1044
00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:28,960
Speaker 4: up with some good tackles. I mean, I know Hankins

1045
00:54:29,080 --> 00:54:32,239
Speaker 4: was okay, but give them that. Give him a middle linebacker,

1046
00:54:32,320 --> 00:54:36,440
Speaker 4: stud linebacker and just some tackle, some pluggers, and watch

1047
00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:38,439
Speaker 4: this guy go to work. That's all I want to say.

1048
00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:40,959
Speaker 1: All right. I don't know if I disagree with that either.

1049
00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:42,640
Speaker 1: I like that. I think they need something.

1050
00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:45,480
Speaker 4: Let's bring it. We brought it today, right, we brought.

1051
00:54:45,239 --> 00:54:47,440
Speaker 2: It all right, Anthony?

1052
00:54:47,560 --> 00:54:51,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, you know that's one thing we haven't

1053
00:54:51,120 --> 00:54:54,600
Speaker 1: really seen. It's kind of like a quarterback, you know,

1054
00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:56,880
Speaker 1: like Romo was good for a lot a lot of

1055
00:54:56,920 --> 00:54:58,600
Speaker 1: those years, but he never had it, like a thousand

1056
00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:02,000
Speaker 1: yard rusher. So you DeMarco Murray. He had some good

1057
00:55:02,040 --> 00:55:05,920
Speaker 1: running games, but not a dynamic runner until like Murray

1058
00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:08,800
Speaker 1: came on and he rushed for a thousand yards a

1059
00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:10,680
Speaker 1: couple of times, and then you really start to see it.

1060
00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:12,279
Speaker 1: And then you were gonna pair him with you know,

1061
00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:15,400
Speaker 1: with Zeke, and that was, you know, gonna be interesting.

1062
00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:17,920
Speaker 1: So it's it's kind of the same way I think

1063
00:55:17,960 --> 00:55:21,720
Speaker 1: of Parsons. He's never really had those run stuffing middle

1064
00:55:21,760 --> 00:55:24,320
Speaker 1: linebackers to kind of stop the run that can you know,

1065
00:55:24,360 --> 00:55:28,120
Speaker 1: allow you to do his thing. So uh yeah, you

1066
00:55:28,160 --> 00:55:31,680
Speaker 1: know Micah. Micah can be frustrating for some fans that

1067
00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:33,640
Speaker 1: they just kind of wish he would stay off of,

1068
00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:37,920
Speaker 1: you know, social media. It's it seems like at times,

1069
00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:40,919
Speaker 1: you know, because he's so he is different. I mean,

1070
00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:43,960
Speaker 1: it just seems like maybe he doesn't care about the

1071
00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:47,040
Speaker 1: same things you think he should care about, or not

1072
00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:49,440
Speaker 1: a team guy or whatever. I don't know all that.

1073
00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:52,480
Speaker 1: I do know he's you know He's a unique person

1074
00:55:52,560 --> 00:55:55,640
Speaker 1: and player, and I think he has a chance to

1075
00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:59,920
Speaker 1: mature and and you know, I'm counting on that players

1076
00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:03,000
Speaker 1: people mature, and I think if he does that, just

1077
00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:06,440
Speaker 1: a little bit, gets a little bit more, you know,

1078
00:56:06,640 --> 00:56:09,000
Speaker 1: just shows more of a team guy. He's a team guy.

1079
00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:11,960
Speaker 1: But just do a little bit more. Understand the game,

1080
00:56:12,080 --> 00:56:14,479
Speaker 1: keep getting better, keep figuring out how to get better

1081
00:56:14,640 --> 00:56:16,960
Speaker 1: later in the season, take care of his body, that

1082
00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:21,080
Speaker 1: kind of stuff. I mean, he started out great. He

1083
00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:24,480
Speaker 1: started out great. I mean, so who knows where this

1084
00:56:24,520 --> 00:56:26,440
Speaker 1: thing's going. I'm not a big fan of trying to

1085
00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:29,720
Speaker 1: trade a player like that. You know, it's so hard

1086
00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:33,319
Speaker 1: to get great football players, and they drafted one that

1087
00:56:33,400 --> 00:56:36,279
Speaker 1: already was great. You know, the sky's the limit on

1088
00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:39,120
Speaker 1: what it could be. So yeah, I agree with kind

1089
00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:42,080
