00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 1: Listen, Okay, man, I'm trying to think. I will say this,

46
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 1: and there's been a I'm sure a lot. There's a

47
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 1: lot of things you don't remember obviously from the New

48
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: Year's but I'm trying to think from a Cowboys standpoint

49
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: when we played games like on New Year's I know

50
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:34,920
Speaker 1: one time we did play on January the first in

51
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 1: New York. I can't remember what year I should know.

52
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 1: This might have been twenty eighteen, but it felt like

53
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: it was. It was a little bit before that. And

54
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 1: I remember we didn't have anywhere to go, and we

55
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 1: were in the hospitality room the night before. Nothing was

56
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 1: really open, and we found some pizza place and I

57
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: was with the guy that works for ESPN, Todd Archer.

58
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,839
Speaker 1: We went to some pizza place in New Jersey and

59
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: and if you've ever seen the movie Rounders with Matt

60
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 1: Damon where they kind of goes into like an underground

61
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,679
Speaker 1: place to go play poker, that's basically where we where

62
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:12,359
Speaker 1: we ended up. I didn't think I was gonna make

63
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,919
Speaker 1: it that night, Like, I mean, we were like some

64
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 1: pizza joint and it was like, oh, it's open, let's

65
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 1: go there. Here's the address. And then he went down

66
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 1: the steps and knocked on the door and it was eleven,

67
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 1: by the way, eleven, Okay, it was a while. Yeah,

68
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: that's oh, that was the That was the game they

69
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: played for the for the finals, I mean, to win

70
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 1: the NFC East and did not win, but we were

71
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 1: kind of stuck there, like, oh the guys. Todd was like, yeah,

72
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 1: scoo pizza. You know, I've heard of this place and

73
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: I swear it was. I was. It was like top

74
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 1: five like terrifying moments because I'm like this, this just

75
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: doesn't seem right, Like I hope this pizza better be

76
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 1: damn good, because like somebody's gonna like whack my knees

77
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: is to get it. But didn't happen. And I think

78
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 1: the pizza was good. It wasn't as memorable as the

79
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 1: moment there. Maybe I exaggerated a little. Who knows. All right,

80
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 1: thanks for the call, Robbie. Let's go Gary, New Mexico. Gary,

81
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 1: what's up?

82
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 5: Hey? Happy New Year guys, you too.

83
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 1: How are you doing?

84
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 5: I'm doing good man. Hey. The Cowboys actually won an

85
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 5: NFC championship game on New Year's Day in nineteen seventy eight.

86
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 1: So wow, going back, how much things have changed an

87
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 1: NFC championship game on New Year's Day. Now it's like

88
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 1: we're not even through the regular season.

89
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 5: But oh no, it's crazy. It's crazy. So I'm reading

90
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 5: your website here it says take a few trips down

91
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 5: memory Lane as a as an older Cowboy fan, I

92
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 5: have moved to Memory. I live on Memory Lane one

93
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 5: twenty eight. Memory Lane is my addressment. Okay, so I

94
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 5: got I got a trivia I'm going to get you

95
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 5: on this week's trivial question.

96
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 1: No, I'm ready for the challenge.

97
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 5: I've got one. I'm going to get in. I'm want

98
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 5: to give you a fair shot. We're going to go

99
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 5: back to your wheelhouse nineteen eighty three. You're really good

100
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 5: at games. So Washington at Dallas Week fifteen, nineteen eighty three.

101
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 5: This was probably the most hyped game of my childhood,

102
00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 5: and by comparison, it's very similar to what we're about

103
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 5: to see with Minnesota and Detroit. It was for all

104
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 5: the marbles, Division Championship, home field, Evans, all that stuff.

105
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 5: So this was the No Danny No Game. Do you

106
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 5: remember the game?

107
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 1: Yes, the No Danny No go.

108
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:12,840
Speaker 5: Okay, here's the trivia question and I'm gonna set it

109
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 5: up for you. It's the third quarter of the game.

110
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 5: It's fourteen to ten Washington Leeds. Cowboys have all the momentum.

111
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 5: Though they're driving the ball, they kind of stalled out.

112
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 5: It's fourth and one at midfield, Landry lines up to

113
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 5: go for it, but all he wants to do is

114
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,360
Speaker 5: draw him off sides. Right, Danny White thinks he sees

115
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 5: something in the defense. At the last second, he changes

116
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 5: it to a live play. The play gets stuffed Landry

117
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,119
Speaker 5: the sideline catches. The cameras catch Landry yelling no Danny

118
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 5: nor on the sideline. The question is this, who did

119
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 5: Danny White give the ball to on that play?

120
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 1: Man? Oh, I don't think it was Dorset.

121
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 7: I'm gonna says, Oh Man, you got it. Yeah, yes, yeah,

122
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 7: I knew would have got it. No, he would have.

123
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 5: If you remember the player. Man, that play was blown up.

124
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:09,599
Speaker 1: From the beginning, Washington won that game something.

125
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,160
Speaker 5: Yeah that that that play, that play, not only that

126
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 5: play changed their whole season. Yeah, that's completely it was.

127
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 5: Oh it was horrible. But man, that is next level stuff.

128
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 5: I can't believe you got that one.

129
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 1: There's three running backs to get and I don't think

130
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 1: it's Dorset, who was my favorite player. Maybe new House

131
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: got it, but I mean, you know it was it

132
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,719
Speaker 1: was I mean, I know the running back, so I

133
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 1: mean that that that's a good one. But but I

134
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,479
Speaker 1: mean I had process of elimination there, so Uh.

135
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, Okay, I gave you a chance, all right, So

136
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:40,840
Speaker 5: let's get back to this year's team.

137
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 1: Let's go all right.

138
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 5: And I'm trying. This is my relentless effort to stay

139
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:46,839
Speaker 5: positive with this year's team.

140
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 1: But uh goods.

141
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 5: I'm really impressed with the running game. I mean, as

142
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 5: bad as they look Sunday, they still ran the ball

143
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 5: well and they did that against the top ten run defense.

144
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 5: And I think when we look back on this season,

145
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,039
Speaker 5: there's plenty of blame to go around, but I think

146
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 5: one of the unfortunate things is that the offensive line

147
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 5: finally coming together after Dak Prescott got hurt. They've gotten

148
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 5: better over the last several weeks. And I think when

149
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 5: we look back on it, and I've heard McCarthy say

150
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 5: this a couple of times, if Tuma Adoga had not

151
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 5: gotten injured in training camp, he would have been your

152
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 5: starting left tackle. I think that's kind of the miss

153
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 5: stories of this season, because since he's gotten healthy and

154
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 5: came back, they've been a little bit more solid on

155
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 5: that left side. I think Zach Martin was a shell

156
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 5: of himself all year. I think he was probably playing

157
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 5: hurt all year. You remember back at the beginning.

158
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 6: Of the year.

159
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 5: He was not what he used to be. Just unfortunate,

160
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 5: and now that the offensive line has started to come together,

161
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 5: is just kind of a little bit, you know, too little,

162
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 5: too late, a lot of blame to go around, but

163
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 5: I think that's just an unfortunate thing. But I think

164
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 5: that's something they can build on moving forward. With this

165
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 5: young offensive line, I think they run block better than

166
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 5: they pass block, but I think they're showing some physicality.

167
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 5: I think that's something regardless through the coach is. I

168
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 5: think that's something that they can build on moving forward.

169
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 5: But they've got to do that. They have when Dak

170
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 5: comes back next year, whatever they do coaching wise, they

171
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 5: have got to give him a strong running game. That

172
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 5: has got to be that has got to be paramount.

173
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 5: And I love Rico Dwell and I'm not opposed to

174
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 5: him coming back, but they can't just be complacent in

175
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 5: the running back area in the offseason. That they've got

176
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 5: to try to give him a strong running game and

177
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 5: give him all the help they cancel that he can

178
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 5: be successful. But I like your thoughts on that, and

179
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 5: they'll hang up and listen. Thanks for taking the ball,

180
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 5: all right, thank you.

181
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 6: There.

182
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's no doubt. I wouldn't worry about how much

183
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,079
Speaker 1: money this guy makes and how much you know where

184
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 1: as far as Dak goes. He needs a running game.

185
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 1: They all do. They all need a running game. I've

186
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 1: seen last year's team with the Chiefs. They run out

187
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 1: the games Pacheco. You know, as great as Mahomes is,

188
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,679
Speaker 1: there's times where you've got to run the football. You've

189
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 1: got to run it when they know you're going to

190
00:08:56,440 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 1: run it. I'm not one that sits back. Really, I've

191
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 1: seen every game, like you guys have watched every game,

192
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,560
Speaker 1: just about every play, I think, And I'm not one

193
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 1: that sits here and says, what were they doing with

194
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 1: the running game? Like if they would have just given

195
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 1: the ball to Rico all year long? They did give

196
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 1: the ball to Rico. I mean he was pretty much

197
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:23,240
Speaker 1: the guy most of the season here. They didn't know

198
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 1: what they were doing. At times they would it would

199
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 1: Zeke would play here, but like, let's be honest. I mean,

200
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 1: Rico has had a good, solid year, but it's never

201
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:37,080
Speaker 1: been super flashy or anything like that. He's had his moments.

202
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: He's not extremely special. He's a good, solid back and

203
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 1: and I like him. I like him and I think

204
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,680
Speaker 1: he needs a little help too. I think there would

205
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,960
Speaker 1: be another running back would be great to have. He'd

206
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: be a great complimentary back. He could be the starter

207
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,839
Speaker 1: with another young guy or vice versas. Doesn't matter. Those

208
00:09:57,080 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 1: two runners, you need them both. But he had moments too.

209
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 1: You know, he'll fumble here, he won't hit the hole

210
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: like you want him to. He doesn't break it to

211
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 1: that next levels. All the time. I'm just saying he's

212
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 1: a good, solid back. The whole running game was kind

213
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 1: of was was just it was a weird season too,

214
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 1: because you say that about Chuma. Gary just mentioned that

215
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 1: about Tuma getting hurt. The plan all along was for

216
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 1: Tyler Gouyton to be the left tackle. That was the plan,

217
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 1: so Tuma could have been one hundred percent healthy. They

218
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 1: were going to find a way to get the get

219
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:32,079
Speaker 1: their first round pick in there, and he proved as

220
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 1: the season went on he wasn't the best option. And

221
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 1: that's unfortunate. That's unfortunate. I said that in the press

222
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 1: box the other day. Fourth quarter, third I think it

223
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 1: was third or fourth quarter. But there's Tuma out there

224
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 1: and they're rotating left tackles and you would have never

225
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 1: you never would have thought by the last game, last

226
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 1: road game of the season, there's Tuma, you know, still

227
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 1: rotating with Tyler Goeyton. That was never supposed to be

228
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 1: the case. So it's credit to Tchuma for you know,

229
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 1: being pretty good and playing well. But also it wasn't

230
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 1: what they thought. They thought Geyton would definitely take over

231
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 1: by week one, be the guy and just get better

232
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 1: and better and better. And that didn't. That didn't happen.

233
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,559
Speaker 1: Doesn't mean that he won't turn the corner here, but

234
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,439
Speaker 1: that didn't happen like they thought. All right, let's go

235
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:16,800
Speaker 1: to Dylan Northport.

236
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 4: Florida, say, Nick, Yeah, just a touch on that last

237
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,079
Speaker 4: call before I get into my stuff. You know, Rico

238
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 4: is he's just like a not really. He's a jack

239
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 4: of all trades but doesn't excel in anything. He's a

240
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 4: good number two. He can carry the team if he

241
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,600
Speaker 4: needs to for a few weeks. If RB one goes down,

242
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:34,719
Speaker 4: he can spell RB one. But he's not the guy

243
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 4: that I want leading the charge every Sunday. Yeah, so

244
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 4: I don't want to say him, but if he's cheap enough,

245
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:39,840
Speaker 4: sure why not?

246
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 1: And that that'll be interesting to see what what what

247
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 1: his market is. Uh, there, and yeah they have to

248
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 1: you have to re sign him as well. I'm sure

249
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:52,240
Speaker 1: he'll get the chance to test it. But you know,

250
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are going to have to change their mindset

251
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:58,280
Speaker 1: on the running back position, in my opinion, not just

252
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 1: well we got Rico, we'll sign him and we'll bring

253
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:05,560
Speaker 1: back Zeke and maybe Deuce and we'll make it work. Now, No,

254
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,200
Speaker 1: you got to have somebody a little bit special because

255
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: the special running back. This was the year of that

256
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,040
Speaker 1: the special running back showed how special they are and

257
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 1: how much they could really help.

258
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:18,320
Speaker 4: So yeah, I joined Travis's space on Twitter last night.

259
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,320
Speaker 4: We talked about the running back position for a couple

260
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 4: of minutes, and that was kind of one of the

261
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 4: things you talked about, was like, Dak has never had

262
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,120
Speaker 4: a play making running back.

263
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 5: He had Zeke.

264
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 4: Zeke was really good. He was not the guy that

265
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:29,840
Speaker 4: was going to house the eighty yards out. I know

266
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 4: he took one on a screen, you know, one time,

267
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,839
Speaker 4: but he's never a speed guy. It would help Dak

268
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 4: tremendously to have a guy in the field that could

269
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:38,679
Speaker 4: score without having to put the ball in the air

270
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 4: from any point on the field, especially at this point

271
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:42,680
Speaker 4: in his career where he seems to be maybe on

272
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:43,560
Speaker 4: the down.

273
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 1: Where would you put Pollard in that group? I mean

274
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 1: he was I mean he had.

275
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 4: I like Pollared a lot, but I just think get

276
00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 4: an opportunity.

277
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 1: But he had some moment. I mean he he was

278
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,040
Speaker 1: there with Dak, He had his moments. He took it

279
00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,160
Speaker 1: to the house a few times. I know New Orleans

280
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 1: it was about fifty yards or so, and I mean

281
00:12:58,280 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 1: he had some.

282
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 4: But but again, I feel like they rode Zeke for

283
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 4: too long and didn't give We heard try two or

284
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 4: three training camps in a row where it's like, Okay,

285
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 4: we're gonna use Pollard more receiver, get him in the

286
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 4: passing game, you know, involved split more cares with Zeke,

287
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 4: and this kind of never happened. It was always a

288
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 4: Zeke show until Zeke was gone. And then you know,

289
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 4: Pollard had his one season and I think he kind

290
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 4: of got a raw deal season. To be honest with you,

291
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 4: I don't think that he had the best offensive line play.

292
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,560
Speaker 4: I don't think the play calling was up to snuff

293
00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 4: as far as his skills goes. But that kind of

294
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 4: weapened to my next point about Mike McCarthy. You know,

295
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 4: Rob called yesterday. I talked about Mike, and it got

296
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:36,839
Speaker 4: me thinking. So I sat down and I did kind

297
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 4: of pros and cons on Mike McCarthy because I don't

298
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 4: like dog pile.

299
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:40,319
Speaker 2: I like to do my.

300
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 4: Research and try to figure out the other side of

301
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 4: the fence and kind of understandable both positions keeping and

302
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 4: letting go of Mike McCarthy. So I had a hard

303
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 4: time though, making o the pros. You know, all of

304
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 4: the pros on Mike McCarthy were his historical performances, Like

305
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 4: he has a really good career record, so he's doing

306
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 4: something right. Apparently his teams are typically competing for playoff positions,

307
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 4: so he's doing something right. There's quarterback Guru supposedly, and

308
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 4: Dak played his best ball in twenty twenty three. I think,

309
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 4: so maybe there's something to that. But when you look

310
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 4: at like characteristics and traits, like I couldn't think of

311
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 4: anything that Mike does that's like, wow, I want that

312
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,680
Speaker 4: guy as my head coach. He's not a great play caller,

313
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 4: he's not a great clock management guys. And here's my

314
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 4: biggest issue was this year the team was the team

315
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 4: has been on discipline. They have a lot of issues

316
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 4: of penalties over his whole tenure here. But this team

317
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 4: was really ill prepared, which was evidenced by the players

318
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 4: and Mike himself for multiple losses talking about how they

319
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 4: didn't practice well during the week and they weren't prepared,

320
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 4: weren't prepared, weren't paying attention to details, and that that's

321
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 4: like the number one thing that a head coach has

322
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 4: to do obviously, is get his team prepared. They're professionals,

323
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 4: the players are. They should be ready anyways. They should

324
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 4: be showing up and getting ready. But if they're not,

325
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 4: you know, a lot of these guys are young kids,

326
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 4: blow to mid twenties, young guys like you got to

327
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 4: get them focused. I don't know how you do it.

328
00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 4: I'm not a coach. I don't know the details on that,

329
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 4: but like to me, head coach has to have his

330
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 4: team ready, and they weren't ready in the beginning of

331
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 4: this year multiple weeks. So that's that's the most troubling

332
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 4: thing for me. But if you have any pros I

333
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 4: Mike McCarthy off the top of your head, I'd love

334
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 4: to hear about them.

335
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 1: All right, Well, thanks thanks for the call, Dylan, and

336
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 1: always always appreciate you always thinking, you know, outside the

337
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,640
Speaker 1: box and and not just you know, just coming on

338
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 1: here and saying what about this? And that, I mean

339
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 1: just like coming up with it with some with a

340
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 1: with a different topic, different way to look at it.

341
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 1: That that's that's why you created the Twitter spaces, and

342
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,160
Speaker 1: that's why you're one of those leaders there on that

343
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 1: and really took this show to another level. So I

344
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 1: appreciate you doing that. Some of the some of the

345
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,800
Speaker 1: pros are things that that aren't they don't have stats

346
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 1: on them, you know, and that's what makes it's kind

347
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 1: of like an offensive lineman. It's like judging them. You

348
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 1: got to sort of know what you're looking at. And

349
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 1: and and in this case with McCarthy, and this is

350
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 1: where it gets. This is kind of tricky because the

351
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 1: players love them. Okay, it's evident by two of the

352
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 1: leaders on both sides. You know, players love and players

353
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 1: players want to play for him. That can be a

354
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:10,080
Speaker 1: good thing. Did anyone want to play for Bear Bryant?

355
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 1: I mean, did anyone want to play for Bill Parcells

356
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 1: and and and those guys I mean Belichick maybe at times.

357
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 1: I mean there's a reason why coaches, you know, think

358
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,080
Speaker 1: about when you were in high school and junior high

359
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 1: and those coaches that you didn't like, they probably were

360
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 1: good though for you. So just you know, it's like, yeah,

361
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 1: everybody wants the substitute teacher, but they're not. They're not

362
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 1: there for they're there for a reason. But that's my

363
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:38,320
Speaker 1: point is is that just because they're the it's a

364
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 1: player's coach isn't always a good thing because you know,

365
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 1: there's there's been some talk here maybe they don't practice enough.

366
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 1: Maybe they you know, because he's he's easy on them

367
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 1: and when at times get you know, once them off

368
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 1: their feet, wants to take care of them. Things like

369
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,640
Speaker 1: that didn't help with injuries. You know, they still were

370
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 1: the most injured team in the NFL. So, uh, the

371
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 1: players coach thing is kind of that's that's a that's

372
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 1: a tough one because you gotta you gotta know, yes,

373
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 1: it's good on one end, but but sometimes you know,

374
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: it's a different it's a different age too, it's a

375
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,359
Speaker 1: different era. It's a different era to to just say like, well,

376
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,119
Speaker 1: you know, I gotta be real hard on him. You

377
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:20,879
Speaker 1: gotta scare them, you gotta you know, they had to

378
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,239
Speaker 1: have fear you know Jimmy Johnson was that way. I mean,

379
00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,399
Speaker 1: there was there was guys that probably didn't like Jimmy

380
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: that much, but at the end of the day that

381
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:28,480
Speaker 1: it was like, hey, he was great for us. I

382
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,679
Speaker 1: think Akman would would say that, you know, early on,

383
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 1: I think Jimmy was tough on him. So I don't

384
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 1: know if I answered that. I mean, some of some

385
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 1: of the there there are some some pros he understands,

386
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,840
Speaker 1: you know, you know, he under understands how to how

387
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 1: to navigate through a season, and and and you know,

388
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 1: get him, you say, get them ready to play. They

389
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,879
Speaker 1: were not prepared, like you said several times during the season.

390
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 1: I think he got him, he got you know, he

391
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 1: kept it going, I kept him playing hard and all

392
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. Some of that's on the players

393
00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:01,640
Speaker 1: as well. So, uh, you know, if more than anything,

394
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 1: if he comes back, it's because he's had good teams,

395
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,160
Speaker 1: He's had good he's he's had a good program here

396
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 1: for five years. For three of those years in a row,

397
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,120
Speaker 1: when Dak was healthy, for the most part, they were

398
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 1: right there and and and they were they were in

399
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,640
Speaker 1: position to to go, you know further in the playoffs.

400
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 1: They lost in the playoffs. But that's what you want,

401
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,240
Speaker 1: at least want them to get there when Dak isn't there.

402
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 1: You know, they've they've they've struggled. So were they gonna

403
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,119
Speaker 1: Were they gonna get there? Just because Dak state? Who knows?

404
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 1: Who knows? But I mean he's the starter for a reason,

405
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:37,240
Speaker 1: and you know, I would like to think they could

406
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 1: have won some of those games, but who knows. All right,

407
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 1: let's go to Rick in Webster, Massachusetts.

408
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 8: Hey, Nick, how you doing? Happy New Year and your family?

409
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:50,680
Speaker 1: Thank you appreciate it. Happy New Year to you.

410
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:56,879
Speaker 8: Yeah, a couple of things, you know, what's uh Dylan said?

411
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,400
Speaker 8: You know, Rico is not a number one running back.

412
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:04,159
Speaker 8: He's good, complimentary running back, but I would like to

413
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,119
Speaker 8: see him come back. The other key positions I would

414
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:09,400
Speaker 8: like to see a players I would like to see

415
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 8: come back if possible or definitely Jordan Lewis, Oh's up?

416
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:18,639
Speaker 8: We can you know keep them Chauncey and uh, you

417
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 8: know the you know, possibly Kendricks if was like that.

418
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 8: But you're saying, is some of the key positions we

419
00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,359
Speaker 8: should get, you know, like a running back like middle

420
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:34,919
Speaker 8: rounds and the wide receiver you know, probably you know,

421
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,119
Speaker 8: a linebacker and a cornerback to just to show up

422
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:43,959
Speaker 8: the depth there and hopefully that Kaylen Carson and Ware

423
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,879
Speaker 8: and Butler and all them come back and help with

424
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 8: the depth at the cornerback position. But all and I

425
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 8: like to have a good New year end. Let's go,

426
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 8: let's beat those commanders this weekend and go from there.

427
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,200
Speaker 1: All right, appreciate it, Thank you Rick for the call.

428
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 1: You know, as you kind of went through the cornerback

429
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:10,200
Speaker 1: position there, it got me thinking, you know, that's that's

430
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 1: a position, that's an area. I don't know where they're

431
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:14,920
Speaker 1: going to pick. I honestly haven't even looked to see

432
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,639
Speaker 1: where the draft order would be as it stands right now.

433
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,439
Speaker 1: And I'm sure we'll we'll hear that and get that story.

434
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 1: If they win, it could be here. If they lose,

435
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 1: it could be here. I'm guessing somewhere in the middle fifteen,

436
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 1: seventeen eighteen, something like that. I really haven't seen it.

437
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:36,880
Speaker 1: But cornerback is a position there where you know you're

438
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 1: looking at probably you know, I third or fourth corner

439
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,360
Speaker 1: depends on traditionally. I don't even know what this year

440
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 1: looks like there on the draft, but you know that's

441
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 1: that's a spot where you could you could take a corner,

442
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:52,560
Speaker 1: you know, and you got Land. That's that's he's going

443
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:57,879
Speaker 1: to need a contract here after this season. Diggs. I

444
00:20:57,920 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: don't know what's going to happen with him. He's his

445
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 1: injury is one that's going to probably go into the

446
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 1: season next year, and you know, and it's going to

447
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 1: be up to him to get himself ready to go

448
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,720
Speaker 1: and also to be back. You know, it's not just

449
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:15,880
Speaker 1: the training staff and athletic training trainers getting them back going.

450
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:17,119
Speaker 1: I mean, a part of it's going to be on

451
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:19,440
Speaker 1: him too. He doesn't always stay here in the offseason,

452
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 1: so you know, he's got to be committed to get

453
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,679
Speaker 1: back early as well. And so the corner could be

454
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 1: a spot where I could see the Cowboys drafting in

455
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:33,160
Speaker 1: the first round, maybe second, because you just never can't

456
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 1: have enough corners. This year was certainly, you know, it

457
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,359
Speaker 1: was certainly one they'll see. Chris is saying the Cowboys

458
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 1: are at thirteen right now. The best they can get

459
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 1: is eleven. What's the worst? You know what the worst? Chris,

460
00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:44,359
Speaker 1: jump in here.

461
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,160
Speaker 9: I'm looking at it right now. A second.

462
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 1: So they can get to eleven if they if they

463
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 1: lose thirteen right now, So all right, that's better than

464
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:57,640
Speaker 1: I thought. Probably in the fifteen range or so. Needed

465
00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 1: San Francisco to win last night, that would have been better.

466
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 1: I think. I think it is. You know, it goes

467
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 1: head to head, but it also goes strength of schedule.

468
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:10,920
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if it just goes head to head,

469
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 1: if two teams are tied and whoever won the game

470
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 1: gets the worst draft pick, that or it might just

471
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:17,439
Speaker 1: be strength of schedule. I say, yes, I should know that,

472
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:20,119
Speaker 1: but usually it's all you're you're talking about the twenties

473
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 1: and twenty five.

474
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 9: Seventeen is the worst. I'm sorry, seventeen is the worst.

475
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:25,160
Speaker 9: So the best you can get as eleven. You can't

476
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 9: get to ten. You get worse as seventeen. So there

477
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 9: you go. There's your window. All right, So fourteen fifteen,

478
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 9: who knows? I mean that that's a bit. I mean,

479
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 9: that's a difference, There's no doubt about it feels like

480
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:39,680
Speaker 9: it's a different player. Seventeen and eleven in the first

481
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:43,359
Speaker 9: round seam. It feels like a different player. To get

482
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 9: to eleven, you want to know the scenario gets to eleven, Okay,

483
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 9: if you lose the game. San Francisco has to win

484
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:54,400
Speaker 9: and Indianapolis has to win, and then then you get that.

485
00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 1: So there you go San Francisco.

486
00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:00,280
Speaker 9: San Francisco play the Arizona Z don't know, Okay, that

487
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 9: could happen.

488
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 1: Indianapolis plays Jacksonville.

489
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:03,800
Speaker 9: There you go, So there you go.

490
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 1: I don't know who the quarterback is there, I mean Dobbs,

491
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: I guess. So, yeah, they needed that win. I mean,

492
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:11,639
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers of winning that game would have

493
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:15,359
Speaker 1: been good. There. Then again, hey, it's all good. Whatever

494
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:17,600
Speaker 1: it is is what it is. Just go and go

495
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 1: get it. Go get a good player, you know. I mean,

496
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:24,200
Speaker 1: if they're a fourteenth, you can always get good value

497
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 1: depending on the position that you get. And I'm telling you,

498
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 1: if you get a guard, I'd be all for it.

499
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 1: You know, Zach Martin was drafted fourteenth and in twenty fourteen,

500
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:39,760
Speaker 1: and I'd be all all for that, you know. I mean,

501
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 1: not a center, you don't know if you need a center,

502
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,920
Speaker 1: but getting a guard, getting getting a corner, I think

503
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,600
Speaker 1: I think you get great value there. Obviously you get

504
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:50,720
Speaker 1: good value at running back. If that's if that was

505
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:55,000
Speaker 1: one worthy of that to draft that high. I don't know.

506
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:58,440
Speaker 1: I'd rather go for the guard myself than they're back.

507
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 1: But anyways, all right, let's go to k How about

508

Speaker 12: I can hear you.

542
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 1: Nick, all right, come on, let's go absolutely well.

543
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 6: Good morning. First of all, good morning to you, sir.

544
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 6: And you know, I the thought I had and listening

545
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:21,000
Speaker 6: to the couple of callers about Rico is I'd like

546
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:25,000
Speaker 6: to see him because the offensive line got better as

547
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:29,399
Speaker 6: the season went on, but without Dak, I'd like to

548
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,959
Speaker 6: see him play with the full force of everything. You know,

549
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:36,919
Speaker 6: I'd like to see him all together and see if

550
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,359
Speaker 6: he's maybe better than we think he is. I know

551
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:43,399
Speaker 6: he's had a you know, a good you know five

552
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 6: games throt not a good five game stretch because the

553
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:51,200
Speaker 6: win against Tampa wasn't wasn't was not exactly stellar. Yeah,

554
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,879
Speaker 6: but but the other games were pretty good. And I

555
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:58,920
Speaker 6: would like to see him starting quarterback, starting offensive line,

556
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:02,280
Speaker 6: whoever that's going to be year, and just see maybe

557
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 6: he's a little better than we fought because he's playing

558
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:08,560
Speaker 6: with them, he's playing under some really adverse conditions, and

559
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:12,479
Speaker 6: he got better as the season went on. So I

560
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 6: know he doesn't have the breakaway speed like somebody mentioned,

561
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 6: you know, he's not the guy that's going to take it,

562
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 6: you know, take it to the house from eighty yards.

563
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:22,159
Speaker 6: But that's just my thought, Henrico. So you know, I

564
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:27,200
Speaker 6: was listening to Isaiah Standback on he does NFL dot

565
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 6: Com once a week, and they were talking about the Vikings,

566
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 6: and they had a very interesting point, and I wanted

567
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 6: to see if you had seen this at any point

568
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:40,200
Speaker 6: in your history with the Cowboys. Five of their players,

569
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 6: key players are cast off guys from other teams and

570
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:50,919
Speaker 6: their top players for the Vikings this year Darnold, Aaron Jones,

571
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:54,760
Speaker 6: Stefan Gilmour, Andrew Van Ginkle, which is their leading sack

572
00:27:54,800 --> 00:28:00,359
Speaker 6: guy at twelve and a half, and Jonathan Grenard Greenard anyway,

573
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:04,639
Speaker 6: but their top players on what might be the top

574
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 6: team in the NFC. Had you, I mean, that's a

575
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:09,400
Speaker 6: will of a turnaround.

576
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is. If you told me who's the best

577
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:14,680
Speaker 1: player on the Vikings team, I mean, I don't think

578
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,400
Speaker 1: you said them. So like when I when I think

579
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 1: of like their star players, I don't think of them.

580
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,439
Speaker 1: I mean I think of Justin Jefferson, who I'm sure was,

581
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 1: oh I know was drafted by them, So I mean, yeah,

582
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:29,960
Speaker 1: it's it's definitely key. I mean, what are the Eagles doing?

583
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:32,840
Speaker 1: I mean the Eagles, I mean when I think of them,

584
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 1: I think of, you know, two main guys, aj Brown

585
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 1: and Barkley, and they came from different teams. Slay is

586
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:43,120
Speaker 1: pretty good, you know. I'm saying they've got some key

587
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 1: players too coming from other teams. But yeah, but your

588
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 1: point is it's not the way for the Cowboys. That's

589
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,960
Speaker 1: not what the Cowboys have done by far.

590
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 6: So no, just you know in your mind, what has

591
00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:00,720
Speaker 6: been the year if if you've seen one, you know, obviously,

592
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,520
Speaker 6: you know back in the day they got Haley, you know,

593
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:06,320
Speaker 6: they got Dion one year. You know, they got some

594
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,840
Speaker 6: pretty big players that made a huge difference, right and

595
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,680
Speaker 6: maybe turned them around. In your time, there has there

596
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,280
Speaker 6: been anybody like that? And I'll hang up and take

597
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:18,200
Speaker 6: that one man. Yeah, Happy New Year, you too, thank you.

598
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,040
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, obviously you're talking about two of the best,

599
00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,000
Speaker 1: you know back in the nineties, and with trading for

600
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 1: Haley and then getting don you know, and the Don

601
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 1: one was taking him away from the forty nine ers

602
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 1: and putting him on your team. Uh so it made

603
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 1: him better for sure. And you know, that was probably

604
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,440
Speaker 1: the biggest one of all time because Larry Brown was

605
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 1: a solid player and he had a phenomenal season and

606
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 1: I think we all know why because I mean, he

607
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 1: had a little bit more safety help than he ever

608
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:53,400
Speaker 1: did before. Because de Han's on the other side, you know,

609
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 1: we haven't seen free agents like that. The best one

610
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 1: that I can think of since I've been here that

611
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 1: just came in and was phenomenal was Leroy Glover. That

612
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:08,479
Speaker 1: that to me is the best free agent signing that.

613
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:12,280
Speaker 1: Since I've been here four years, four Pro Bowls, he

614
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:17,040
Speaker 1: was really really good on some teams that weren't that good,

615
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:20,000
Speaker 1: but but he was, you know, he was really a

616
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 1: great player. Brandon Carr thought was a pretty good free

617
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 1: agent acquisition. Again, like, we're not talking about a lot.

618
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:29,400
Speaker 1: This doesn't happen a lot. So uh no, No, there

619
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,600
Speaker 1: hasn't been a ton of free agent help guys that

620
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 1: just come in and and and make a difference. That's

621
00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 1: by design. That's not what the Cowboys do. Should they

622
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:42,440
Speaker 1: change it? If they could, you know, if if, I

623
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,040
Speaker 1: mean if if they can, and I think this year

624
00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:48,080
Speaker 1: you'll see more of that because I think they will

625
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 1: sign some some have to sign free agents because they

626
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 1: there's twenty five of them on their team. So even

627
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,360
Speaker 1: if they signed their own whatever, I think they're gonna

628
00:30:55,400 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 1: sign more outside than their guys on their own team.

629
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,200
Speaker 1: That's just what I think. So I think it'll look

630
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 1: like they're a little bit more active in free agency,

631
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 1: when in reality, I think it'll be more of a

632
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 1: shift of the roster, if that makes sense. All right,

633
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:14,120
Speaker 1: let's go to a Zach in Chicago.

634
00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 13: Oh hey, Nick, it's Josh.

635
00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 1: Oh I'm oh sorry, Josh in Chicago. That's how you know,

636
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Oh good, what's that, Bud?

637
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:23,640
Speaker 6: Not too much?

638
00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,480
Speaker 13: So hey, you know, I real quick on the Eagles game,

639
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 13: I predicted a win from the Cowboys, you know, and

640
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:31,320
Speaker 13: some of the bold predictions I've made this year I

641
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 13: could have been more wrong about. So I'll just make it,

642
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 13: you know, last day of twenty twenty four, I'll make

643
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:38,640
Speaker 13: a twenty twenty five bold prediction. I'll make two of them.

644
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:42,200
Speaker 13: The first one Overshown won't play until twenty twenty six,

645
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:43,880
Speaker 13: and the second one the Cowboys won't go.

646
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 2: To the super Bowl.

647
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,240
Speaker 13: So if I'm wrong about those, you know, the storyliners,

648
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 13: they can pin it on Twitter x and you know

649
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:51,480
Speaker 13: they can they can call me out if I'm wrong

650
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 13: about those, Okay, okay, So yeah, So I just wanted

651
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 13: to mention really quick about some of the younger guys.

652
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 13: I feel like taking a step forward.

653
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 1: You know.

654
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 13: Mazzie Smith, I think is looking at a little bit

655
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,120
Speaker 13: better in the past few weeks and few games. And

656
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 13: I think Collins, now Malie Collins, who is you know,

657
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:13,720
Speaker 13: signed by Kansas City, is having like a really good year.

658
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 13: And I think Hankins was talking in the offseason about

659
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 13: how it took him a few years to figure out

660
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 13: really how the defensive tackle position really worked in the NFL.

661
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:24,440
Speaker 13: So hopefully Mazzie turns that corner and keeps developing. But

662
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:27,600
Speaker 13: I also want to bring up Smith, right, Like, Tyler

663
00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 13: Smith really kind of struggled his first year and then

664
00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 13: he really kind of figured it out his second year,

665
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 13: And I'm hoping that's kind of the same thing that

666
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 13: happens with Guidon in the future as well. I mean,

667
00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:37,400
Speaker 13: the guy's inn athletic freak. He's got a lot of traits,

668
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 13: but he didn't play a lot of college ball, so

669
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:42,280
Speaker 13: maybe he can figure it out too. That's kind of

670
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 13: all I have, you know, looking forward to the future.

671
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:46,520
Speaker 13: But have a happy New Year everyone, see all later.

672
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:52,240
Speaker 1: Thanks man, appreciate the call, Josh. You know you say

673
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 1: that about I tried to have that argument too, Like,

674
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 1: you know, Tiremon Smith wasn't that great his first year.

675
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:02,600
Speaker 1: He played right tackle, he started every game. He was

676
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,560
Speaker 1: he was pretty good. He just wasn't like, oh, he's

677
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 1: going to the Hall of Fame, you know. It wasn't

678
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,240
Speaker 1: like that. He wasn't a pro bowler and all that.

679
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:12,160
Speaker 1: But he he they moved him back to the left side,

680
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:16,480
Speaker 1: and then of course the rest is history with him.

681
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 1: That's not what we've seen, you know, from from Tyler Guyton,

682
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:22,320
Speaker 1: like we haven't we haven't seen that having seen a

683
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 1: lot of the flashes the moments there, he's it's it's

684
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:29,520
Speaker 1: it's like it was with Mazie, you know, he's he's

685
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:31,920
Speaker 1: got to he's got to get better. And it starts

686
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 1: in the weight room for him, and and maybe in

687
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 1: the film room. And he's got to understand, you know

688
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 1: a lot of things. I mean, it's not just about

689
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:43,560
Speaker 1: hasn't played because when you haven't played a lot of football,

690
00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 1: I mean, that's there's there's two parts of that. You

691
00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:49,320
Speaker 1: you know, you got to learn how to play, but

692
00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:52,360
Speaker 1: also you got to learn learning the game, learning the huddle,

693
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 1: learning the calls, learning the the schemes, stuff like that.

694
00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 1: It's not just about pass rush moves from the you know,

695
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 1: defense and and and figuring out where to put your hands.

696
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,720
Speaker 1: It's there's a lot of stuff about playing football. And

697
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 1: so he's he's got to grow up. And they knew that,

698
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,880
Speaker 1: they knew that he had some you know, learning to

699
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:14,200
Speaker 1: do on and off the field, and so if he

700
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:16,440
Speaker 1: if he wants it, you know, if he wants it

701
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 1: bad enough. And that's not just Tyler Guyton, that's any

702
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:22,680
Speaker 1: player in the league, any young guy, if they want

703
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,680
Speaker 1: to succeed and they want to do all the little things,

704
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:29,279
Speaker 1: then then he can get there because he's got you know,

705
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:31,920
Speaker 1: he's he's got the frame, he's got all of that.

706
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 1: He's an athlete, he's got some strength to him. He's

707
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:39,040
Speaker 1: got some dog to him as well. He's just got

708
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:41,400
Speaker 1: to he's got to want to put the work together

709
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:43,920
Speaker 1: and put the work in in the off season and

710
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:46,160
Speaker 1: all that to try to go and and and be

711
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:49,120
Speaker 1: be that guy. I think he can. We'll see, we'll

712
00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:50,960
Speaker 1: see if he turns the corner the because they need it.

713
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:54,080
Speaker 1: I mean, you can't whiff on first round picks, and

714
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,440
Speaker 1: this team can't. They don't. They don't have free agents.

715
00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:59,160
Speaker 1: They don't you know, they don't sign free agents. So

716
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:01,399
Speaker 1: you better not miss on first round picks. That's what's

717
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:04,319
Speaker 1: made this team, you know, it's what's made it kind

718
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,120
Speaker 1: of work here. And then why they've had a good

719
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:09,880
Speaker 1: competitive rosters because they have drafted well, not just in

720
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,080
Speaker 1: the first round, but they're hitting on some of these players,

721
00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:14,040
Speaker 1: but they're definitely they were hitting on the first round,

722
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,600
Speaker 1: and then last two years you can say that they

723
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:21,480
Speaker 1: have not They've not hit for first round. I mean,

724
00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:25,760
Speaker 1: Mazzi was solid this year, but only because of our expectations.

725
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:29,839
Speaker 1: And that's the thing. If Tyler Guidon is better next year,

726
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,839
Speaker 1: just solid, that's still not going to be good enough

727
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,399
Speaker 1: for what you drafted in the first round. So all right,

728
00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 1: let's go. Our next caller is David in Pinehurst, Texas.

729
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:45,520
Speaker 5: Nick Man, thanks for having me on the show. I

730
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:49,080
Speaker 5: just have to tell you something, huge loyal Cowboys fan

731
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:52,560
Speaker 5: of was bored in seventy five from the newer nineties

732
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 5: nineties fan. But man, hell is not red, it is green.

733
00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:01,000
Speaker 5: I went to two games this season in Dallas versus

734
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:04,640
Speaker 5: the Texans, and yeah, I was in Philly last Sunday

735
00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:09,520
Speaker 5: State at the Bellevue Hotel. Wore a Cowboys jersey in

736
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:14,560
Speaker 5: the subway to Philly, Section three, Section one oh four,

737
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:18,000
Speaker 5: Row three, seats one through four. And let me tell

738
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:22,160
Speaker 5: you something, that fan base is the most loyal, crazy

739
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:23,680
Speaker 5: fan base I've ever been around.

740
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:23,800
Speaker 10: You.

741
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:27,720
Speaker 5: That atmosphere was like Kyle Field except for every whoop

742
00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 5: you got an fu Cowboys. The only thing that saved

743
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:35,120
Speaker 5: me from not getting my butt kicked was I had

744
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:37,360
Speaker 5: forty seven on the front and I had Trump on

745
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:39,719
Speaker 5: the back. Philly was a swing state. They loved that

746
00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:42,080
Speaker 5: guy there. The last thing I want to say is

747
00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:48,759
Speaker 5: this franchise needs a structural seismic change. I don't have

748
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,359
Speaker 5: all the answers and what that is, but we've got

749
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:54,799
Speaker 5: to look to the division champion. They've won seven in

750
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,759
Speaker 5: the last twenty we won seven. They've been to two

751
00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:02,359
Speaker 5: Super Bowls or two Conference cheamschampionships, you know, and they

752
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:05,640
Speaker 5: have one bowl to represent. Howie has got to be

753
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,759
Speaker 5: probably the best gem in the NFC because Lorie lets

754
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,400
Speaker 5: him do his thing. They got away from the Carson

755
00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:15,960
Speaker 5: Wentz contract. We have got to do something seismic. Going

756
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:18,600
Speaker 5: back to Mike, I think Mike is a great motivator

757
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,080
Speaker 5: of men. I think he's a good man. He's got

758
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:24,440
Speaker 5: a chip on his ring, you know. But let's call

759
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 5: a spade a spade. The team turned around when they

760
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:32,560
Speaker 5: hired DQ as the DC. What happened this season? No DQ,

761
00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:34,799
Speaker 5: the team goes in the toilet. I know we had

762
00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:38,759
Speaker 5: significant injuries. I don't know what the answer is, other than.

763
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,920
Speaker 5: We need a cultural shift, and it's got to start

764
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:46,400
Speaker 5: with mister Jones doing something drastic. I'll still support him.

765
00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:49,000
Speaker 5: I love him till I die, and I'm gonna be

766
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:53,520
Speaker 5: at the next tough home game somewhere, maybe a Legion

767
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:56,799
Speaker 5: if it's there. But please let me go to an

768
00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:59,160
Speaker 5: away game where we win and we show up better

769
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 5: than the way that we did in Philly. Please, mister

770
00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,759
Speaker 5: Jones do something for the loyal fan base. That's really

771
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:05,239
Speaker 5: all I got.

772
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:07,560
Speaker 1: Did you hold on? I still can't get past this.

773
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 1: He wore a forty seven Cowboys jersey forty seven with

774
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:12,000
Speaker 1: Trump on the back.

775
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:14,759
Speaker 5: You damn right, I did, And it was the only

776
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,040
Speaker 5: thing that saved me for me getting my butt kicked.

777
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,919
Speaker 5: I had little twelve year old kids telling me off,

778
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:22,600
Speaker 5: flipped me the bird eyed for my other friends, my

779
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 5: other buddy wore a Parsons eleven jersey. That was the

780
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:28,879
Speaker 5: only reason, you know, because he's a he's a Pennsylvania guy,

781
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:32,319
Speaker 5: you know, so they loved him. And but and I

782
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,160
Speaker 5: think is where we were sitting, you know it. We

783
00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:36,920
Speaker 5: weren't in the cheap seats, So I mean, and that's

784
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:38,920
Speaker 5: another thing, you know, I'm paying my harder money to

785
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:43,680
Speaker 5: support this team. But I will tell you every fan

786
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,279
Speaker 5: Cowboys fan, do it one time in your life. It

787
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 5: is somewhat of just going into like I said, uh,

788
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:54,920
Speaker 5: your rivals hell, and it sucks even worse when you

789
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,880
Speaker 5: get your butt kick like we did. But I hope

790
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 5: I know that I felt everything that mister Jones felt

791
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 5: knits him when he was there, because I saw, you know,

792
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,320
Speaker 5: the tweets and the videos and whatnot. Hey, I felt

793
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:08,600
Speaker 5: the same thing there. But like I said, the only

794
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:11,720
Speaker 5: thing that saved me was the forty seven Trump Jersey.

795
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:14,920
Speaker 1: Okay. I don't know if that would save you in

796
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 1: every city, but maybe maybe it did there. All right,

797
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:22,839
Speaker 1: all right, thanks David. That's interesting. I didn't see that,

798
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,840
Speaker 1: but I think we'll all agree whatever it is. I

799
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,600
Speaker 1: think that we're looking to make the Cowboys great again,

800
00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 1: so that's probably if that's if that would work, then

801
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:38,920
Speaker 1: that's fine. All right. Let's go to Randy in California. Randy, Yeah,

802
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:40,440
Speaker 1: go ahead, what's up? Randy?

803
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:41,840
Speaker 8: Oh?

804
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't. I didn't hear anything like you just

805
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:46,360
Speaker 2: I can hear you talking, and then Rand are you

806
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:46,920
Speaker 2: ready to go?

807
00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:47,919
Speaker 5: Yeah?

808
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:50,200
Speaker 2: I'm ready to go. Hey, we'll talk about that, the

809
00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:53,680
Speaker 2: Eagles game and everything. You hear me, Yeah, so the

810
00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:57,080
Speaker 2: Eagles game and the Cowboys game which they lost.

811
00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:57,759
Speaker 8: Which was expected.

812
00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:00,640
Speaker 2: But there's something that's provious Jerry to do better. I

813
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:02,839
Speaker 2: was listening to him to the fan and he has

814
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,800
Speaker 2: a great way of answering questions without actually answering the question,

815
00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:07,879
Speaker 2: which I find astonishing.

816
00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:10,640
Speaker 14: They need to stop having these.

817
00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:13,320
Speaker 2: Deals where they wait till the last minute to sign

818
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:16,520
Speaker 2: someone because they already knew what was going to cost

819
00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:17,800
Speaker 2: for DAK. If they already knew what was going to

820
00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:20,680
Speaker 2: cost for CD Lamb, then you get like, you get

821
00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:22,200
Speaker 2: to look at some of these players if they're gonna

822
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:24,160
Speaker 2: be cornerstone players or not, and if they don't want.

823
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:25,400
Speaker 1: To fight on, I'm going to stop you.

824
00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:25,640
Speaker 7: Randy.

825
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:28,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to stop you. That is absolutely wrong, Okay,

826
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:31,719
Speaker 1: that that is wrong. And when people say that, they

827
00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:35,719
Speaker 1: act like the DAK number was sixty two, like two

828
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:38,640
Speaker 1: years ago, a month ago, all that to the time

829
00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:41,479
Speaker 1: it was sixty and the Cowboys finally they were trying

830
00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:43,160
Speaker 1: to get there and they finally said, ah, I find

831
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:46,520
Speaker 1: it sixty. That wasn't the deal. DAK was asking for

832
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:51,200
Speaker 1: sixty five. CD was asking for thirty seven. So it

833
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,839
Speaker 1: wasn't like they they if they would have done the

834
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:56,960
Speaker 1: deal two months ago or six months ago, they would

835
00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,719
Speaker 1: have been they they would have paid way more. So,

836
00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:02,920
Speaker 1: like you, people don't know what these two players were

837
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:05,480
Speaker 1: asking for. That's why it took as long as it did.

838
00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:10,320
Speaker 1: It was actually a negotiation. People just think, uh, cowboys said, fine, fine,

839
00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:12,359
Speaker 1: whatever you want, here's a blank tech nag do it.

840
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,600
Speaker 1: That wasn't the case like they. They fought on this

841
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:18,759
Speaker 1: to this point. So people don't ever realize that the

842
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:22,399
Speaker 1: player is actually holding it hostage too, because they are

843
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:25,239
Speaker 1: asking for the moon and the cat and that's that's

844
00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:27,799
Speaker 1: what it is. So anyways, I had to throw that

845
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:29,719
Speaker 1: out there because I don't think people realize that.

846
00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:32,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, and that's the player's progative to do

847
00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:34,480
Speaker 2: that to make his most money the Again, it's sure, yeah,

848
00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:37,719
Speaker 2: I'm totally poor that So like for instance, like Trevor

849
00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:40,839
Speaker 2: Lawrence got like it was fifty five. So I'm as

850
00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:43,920
Speaker 2: because you're paying some you're paying a player for what

851
00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:45,600
Speaker 2: they have done and what you expect them to do.

852
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 2: And what have Dak has done has been far greater

853
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:51,200
Speaker 2: in significance than Trevor Lawrence. So you already knew it

854
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,399
Speaker 2: was going to be over fifty five, right, So.

855
00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:54,600
Speaker 5: I get your point.

856
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:56,399
Speaker 2: He said, yes for sixty five, and we're thinking about

857
00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:57,879
Speaker 2: sixty and narrow it down.

858
00:41:57,880 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 6: That's fine.

859
00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:01,120
Speaker 2: But if you're going to like someone like Precious, if

860
00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,759
Speaker 2: Overshown wasn't hurt, and when's the quickest you can you

861
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,279
Speaker 2: can sign in, you should do it. If you really

862
00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:08,600
Speaker 2: think he's that special foot player, get on it because

863
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,080
Speaker 2: you can spread the cap hit over hit even though

864
00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:12,120
Speaker 2: it's fifteen years.

865
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:15,160
Speaker 1: I'm with you on that. If you know, if you

866
00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:17,560
Speaker 1: know right away that you want the player, and yeah,

867
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:22,160
Speaker 1: then then started early. I think the same way when

868
00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:25,480
Speaker 1: in that term. But you know, agents are pretty good too.

869
00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:28,239
Speaker 1: Now the agents are like whoa, you know, if you

870
00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:29,800
Speaker 1: if you want to if you want to pay it early,

871
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:31,799
Speaker 1: then this is what it's going to because then was

872
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:35,480
Speaker 1: what happens is the agent projects everyone's projecting. Well, the

873
00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:38,800
Speaker 1: agent thinks that Overshown is going to be Ray Lewis,

874
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:41,759
Speaker 1: So you know that's what an agent does. They think

875
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,880
Speaker 1: of their player that way. So they that's when they're like, oh,

876
00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:47,239
Speaker 1: you want to sign them early? You know two years ahead? Well,

877
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:49,400
Speaker 1: this is what he's going to do this year and

878
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 1: next year and he'll be this so might as well

879
00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:54,640
Speaker 1: pay for it, you know. That's why they try to

880
00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:57,000
Speaker 1: do that with Deron Bland. But I mean, Darron Bland

881
00:42:57,040 --> 00:42:58,800
Speaker 1: has you know, the pick sixes and all that, and

882
00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:02,839
Speaker 1: it's like you know, now, now we'll we'll wait, we'll

883
00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:03,799
Speaker 1: wait and see how this goes.

884
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:06,920
Speaker 2: No, I guarantee. I that's that's totally fine by the

885
00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:09,640
Speaker 2: same standpoint. And you know, they're putting their put they're

886
00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:12,640
Speaker 2: putting their their client at risk if or if it's

887
00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:14,600
Speaker 2: significant injury, then they can if they can't play no

888
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:16,600
Speaker 2: more that and there are things that hurt that kind

889
00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:16,960
Speaker 2: of hurts them.

890
00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:21,919
Speaker 1: Free agency, that's the game, and that's always yeah, yeah,

891
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:22,360
Speaker 1: go ahead.

892
00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:24,680
Speaker 2: I would say the big and the biggest team to

893
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:26,360
Speaker 2: the biggest incentive to get these players to sign an

894
00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:28,799
Speaker 2: early contractor is making a fully guarantee because that's what

895
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:30,839
Speaker 2: it really matters, because then that you can either have

896
00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:33,160
Speaker 2: you know, injury, you know, injury clause and all other

897
00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:35,120
Speaker 2: kind of stuff. But like giving the guaranteed money the

898
00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:37,560
Speaker 2: biggest game and if you're gonna sign them early. Guard

899
00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:41,160
Speaker 2: he signed with the last highest finebacker got in that market,

900
00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:42,960
Speaker 2: you can go five million above that, and then you

901
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:45,239
Speaker 2: added on it to the other two years, and then

902
00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:47,440
Speaker 2: then and then I was gonna say, you know, uh,

903
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:50,120
Speaker 2: is Mica going into his is his fifth year option

904
00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:51,319
Speaker 2: or is this his gay year?

905
00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:52,359
Speaker 5: Uh?

906
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:54,279
Speaker 1: He No, he's going into the fifty year option.

907
00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:59,480
Speaker 2: So okay, So yeah, so I have this, Well, I

908
00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:02,080
Speaker 2: think they're probably can. I think I would be disappointed

909
00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:03,680
Speaker 2: if they really drag this out and not get it

910
00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:05,680
Speaker 2: done and might have misses out on training cap I'll

911
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:09,920
Speaker 2: be very disappointed. But when we were talking about Deron Blane,

912
00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:12,479
Speaker 2: if this team doesn't feel like, okay, don Brent's gonna

913
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:15,560
Speaker 2: cost too much money, we're paying a corner already, then

914
00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:17,319
Speaker 2: you have to start look at the options. Okay, we'll

915
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:17,719
Speaker 2: trade them.

916
00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:18,880
Speaker 6: Then other teams.

917
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:20,799
Speaker 2: If the other teams know they're not going to sign someone,

918
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:23,600
Speaker 2: they trade them, you're gonna get a higher draft pick

919
00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:28,319
Speaker 2: instead of just Ai. And then the last one, right

920
00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:31,279
Speaker 2: manage all having a fart, but I had a brave part.

921
00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:35,440
Speaker 2: But yeah, oh the last one was like Howie Roseman,

922
00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:37,799
Speaker 2: the way he's doing stuffing, He's adding him a lot

923
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 2: of stuff on the pro rated bonuses and non pro

924
00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:43,640
Speaker 2: rated bonuses, which eventually costs them in the end because

925
00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:45,319
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty nine, they're like, they have like two

926
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:48,239
Speaker 2: hundred million dollars in dead money and he's in that

927
00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:50,680
Speaker 2: window now, he doesn't worry because if he doesn't do

928
00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:52,960
Speaker 2: anything in the time of his contract, he's getting fired.

929
00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:55,440
Speaker 1: Are they gonna win? That's the thing? This is, this

930
00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:57,799
Speaker 1: is exactly what the Cowboys were three years ago, and

931
00:44:57,840 --> 00:44:59,840
Speaker 1: they they they've got to win. This is their window

932
00:44:59,880 --> 00:45:02,680
Speaker 1: to when they they're there. They're they're having the same

933
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:04,919
Speaker 1: type of season they're there. They got to win. Uh,

934
00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:06,800
Speaker 1: you know, if they don't, then yeah, you'll be blamed

935
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:08,719
Speaker 1: for it. But you know, he's going for it, you know.

936
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:11,040
Speaker 1: And people don't like to realize that what the Cowboys

937
00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:14,000
Speaker 1: did the same thing. Cowboys went for it in their

938
00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:17,040
Speaker 1: own way and and it's it didn't work in their window.

939
00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:18,920
Speaker 1: Now they're kind of look like they're getting out of it.

940
00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:22,000
Speaker 1: All right, It's go to Robin Vegas. Hey, Nick, Hey,

941
00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:23,759
Speaker 1: rob got to be quick man. I still got a

942
00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:24,759
Speaker 1: break to do. So what's up.

943
00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:27,000
Speaker 14: Did you watch that game last night?

944
00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:27,399
Speaker 1: I did.

945
00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:31,840
Speaker 14: Those are the two best play callers in the league,

946
00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:37,040
Speaker 14: and that of those offenses a light years ahead of

947
00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:42,239
Speaker 14: the Cowboys do. And there's a guy available, uh that

948
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:43,560
Speaker 14: Ben Johnson.

949
00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:45,160
Speaker 5: I mean, if he could do that.

950
00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:48,160
Speaker 14: With Jared Goff, who I always thought I think he's

951
00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:50,920
Speaker 14: a little better than Dak, but hell, he could do

952
00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:54,040
Speaker 14: with him. He could do it here. Uh we were

953
00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:57,160
Speaker 14: talking about coaching game Campbell to me is the type

954
00:45:57,160 --> 00:46:01,319
Speaker 14: of coach you need, and especially with today's because of

955
00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:05,120
Speaker 14: the money and because of the outside influence, you need

956
00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:07,879
Speaker 14: a guy like that. He is so much like Bill

957
00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:13,120
Speaker 14: Parcells where he just gives you the look and these

958
00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:17,359
Speaker 14: players know that's the kind of guy you need, a

959
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:22,680
Speaker 14: walk around coach surrounded by really good assistant coaches. And

960
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:27,160
Speaker 14: the only reason if Jerry stays with Mike, it's just

961
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:30,200
Speaker 14: like the same reason why people stay in a bad relationship.

962
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:33,680
Speaker 14: It's just because he's comfortable. That's all it is. There

963
00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:37,480
Speaker 14: is no other reason than to bring him back other

964
00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:40,879
Speaker 14: than Jerry just says, you know, I'm just comfortable. He's

965
00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:41,399
Speaker 14: a nice guy.

966
00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:41,960
Speaker 5: I like him.

967
00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:44,200
Speaker 14: We get a longer and a maighty two whatever I am.

968
00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:47,920
Speaker 14: And that's it because he doesn't bring anything else today

969
00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:51,520
Speaker 14: that his ceiling is. He shows you what his ceiling is,

970
00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:56,640
Speaker 14: and to me, that would be such a wrong move.

971
00:46:57,719 --> 00:47:01,279
Speaker 14: I agree with the last caller. Yes, of course there

972
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:02,719
Speaker 14: has to be a shake up at the front office,

973
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:04,839
Speaker 14: but that won't happen. So let's go to the next

974
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:07,719
Speaker 14: trickle down, which would be the head coach. And that's

975
00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:13,040
Speaker 14: why this team needs such a strong coach, like at

976
00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:16,239
Speaker 14: Jimmy Johnson. You know, you know, Jerry used to do

977
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:18,680
Speaker 14: the same thing with Jimmy. Bring people into the locker room,

978
00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:21,080
Speaker 14: kiss them off, and Jimmy would just look, give him

979
00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:22,759
Speaker 14: a look, but then go about his business like come on,

980
00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:25,960
Speaker 14: get at you. That's what they need. And unfortunately, I

981
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:30,239
Speaker 14: just don't know if Jerry wants at his age and

982
00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:33,319
Speaker 14: his billions of dollars, I just don't think he has

983
00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:36,960
Speaker 14: the will to win a championship like he used to.

984
00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:41,960
Speaker 1: You know, yeah, I can't. I can't. I just would disagree,

985
00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:44,759
Speaker 1: but I don't know, it's not worth arguing about, you know,

986
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:47,200
Speaker 1: what someone else is feeling and all that. I think

987
00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:49,719
Speaker 1: the desire to win as much as it's ever been,

988
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:53,320
Speaker 1: probably even more because it's been so hard to get back.

989
00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:55,799
Speaker 14: But yeah, but it's like this, It's like I want

990
00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:57,520
Speaker 14: to hit the lottery, but I don't play it.

991
00:47:57,800 --> 00:47:58,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know.

992
00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:01,520
Speaker 14: It's it's like Jerry, I want to win a championship,

993
00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:03,879
Speaker 14: but I don't do what you need to win a championship.

994
00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:05,200
Speaker 14: He knows what needs to be done.

995
00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:06,240
Speaker 13: He ain't stupid.

996
00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:09,560
Speaker 14: He looks at these teams, it says, wow, free agencies

997
00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:13,000
Speaker 14: really help these teams, especially Philly. And he doesn't do

998
00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:15,640
Speaker 14: anything like those teams. So if you don't do that,

999
00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:19,280
Speaker 14: you will never win a championship. Yeah, you cannot draft.

1000
00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:21,640
Speaker 14: All right, good enough.

1001
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:24,759
