There's some four 15 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 2: and o teams, there's some there's some teams. I think 16 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 2: some teams still winless. Uh, but uh, the bulk of 17 00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 2: everyone's going to be right here in this two to 18 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 2: two and two, in three, three and one, that's exactly 19 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 2: where the Cowboys are. They got to get to three 20 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,119 Speaker 2: and two this week against Pittsburgh. 21 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 4: Can they do that on the road? 22 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 2: Has been eight years since they've played at Pittsburgh.

That was 27 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 2: such a fun game. A lot of storylines in that one. 28 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 2: But man, things have changed obviously, as things do in 29 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 2: eight years.

All right, let's get right to it. Then, 38 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 2: let's see where we got. First on the line is 39 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 2: Chuck d He's in Bridge City, Texas. 40 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 4: Chuck, what's up? 41 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 5: What's up? 42 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 6: Nick? 43 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 5: How you doing hanging in there? 44 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:10,239 Speaker 7: Man? 45 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 4: Good? 46 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 5: Hey? 47 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 6: I want to bring up the tackling. It seems like 48 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 6: our tackling is uh, we're right there. You know, we've 49 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 6: had one for a loss on fourth down. And then 50 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 6: he slipped out my question. I know, with practices and 51 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 6: all that, with the competition committee, I don't know how 52 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 6: many padded practices they get during the week, but I'm 53 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 6: wondering if they could or if they're looking into maybe 54 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 6: practicing their fundamentals a little more. I know they got 55 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 6: so much to practice, but man, we need to get 56 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 6: this tackling down. 57 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it's that's a tough one, you know, 58 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 2: because you know that they're trying to keep everybody safe. 59 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 2: The season's longer, and it's going to be even longer, 60 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 2: I mean before you know what I mean, either it's 61 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 2: next year or the year after, we're gonna move to 62 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 2: eighteen games. You know, that's happening eighteen regular season games, 63 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 2: which which would probably mean maybe another bye week. That 64 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 2: could happen either way. To your point, with everything, there's 65 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 2: always two sides, right you know, yes, you they're not 66 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 2: tackling well, they're not playing football as much. The training 67 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 2: camp is lighter than it used to be and not 68 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:26,640 Speaker 2: as not as intense, and then the same goes with practice. 69 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,239 Speaker 2: And then a guy like Trayvon Diggs gets hurt and 70 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 2: towards tears his ACL in the middle of a practice 71 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 2: and he's out for the season. 72 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 4: Again. 73 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 2: That could have happened on anything, whether it was padded 74 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 2: or not. It was padded, but the drill was It 75 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 2: was just a routine drill. So my point is is 76 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 2: that as soon as you want to to intensify practice 77 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 2: and really you know, focus in on on getting better 78 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 2: at playing football throughout the week and making a better game, 79 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 2: things like that happen where you get a little bit 80 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 2: of you know, more of an injury. So it's always 81 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 2: a balance. I think that it's within the teams to 82 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 2: come up with the with the best drills that they 83 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 2: can to kind of get them in, you know, in 84 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 2: in that in that same frame of mind, and and 85 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 2: try to do that, but you cannot. The best way 86 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 2: to play football is to play football. I mean that's 87 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 2: you have to practice it, you have to play it. 88 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 2: So your point is valid. I just don't know if 89 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 2: it's going to be any major changes to to to 90 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 2: do that. 91 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 4: Right now. 92 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Doc. He's in Allentown, Pennsylvania. 93 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 4: Doc. 94 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 8: Hey, Nick, how are you? 95 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:31,280 Speaker 4: I'm good? 96 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 8: All right, Hey, I just want to tell you a 97 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 8: funny story. And and then I wanted to comment on 98 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 8: and on Mike McCarthy because I'm a big fan and 99 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 8: twelve and five for three straight years is incredible, and 100 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 8: I don't understand why not you, But most of the 101 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 8: media and most of the fans want to run the 102 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 8: poor guy out of town. But let me tell you 103 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 8: the funny story. Because my son and I travel to 104 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 8: a lot of the games, and we went to Cleveland 105 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 8: and New York. We're going to be in Pittsburgh, San Francisco, Carolina, 106 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 8: and probably a couple others. But we're a good luck 107 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 8: charm so far. But what happened was on the Cleveland game, 108 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:18,479 Speaker 8: We're sitting there and when Trayvon Diggs made the interception, 109 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 8: my son is wearing his jersey and we're up in 110 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 8: the fourteenth row, so pretty far back. So Diggs comes 111 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 8: running over and heaves the ball up and it's coming 112 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 8: directly to me. You know, I had to move into 113 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 8: the aisle because but the Cleveland guys had left, so 114 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 8: all these hands are flying around, and at the last second, 115 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 8: my son, like play, tries to cut in front of 116 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 8: me because I'm sixty six and he's only twenty five. 117 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 8: He wanted to save the old man, and the darn 118 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 8: ball bounced right off my chest and to some other guy. 119 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,159 Speaker 8: And it was so sad, but we had such a 120 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 8: great time. Didn't matter. But it was funny. 121 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 7: It's not funny. 122 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 2: Remember remember that play next week when the pass over 123 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:10,039 Speaker 2: the middle and Ferguson doesn't catch it or drops it 124 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 2: or something like that. And I know you're going to 125 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 2: say I'm sixty six or whatever, but I'm just. 126 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 4: Saying it happens. 127 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 2: And you said it was funny that you dropped it, 128 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 2: And just remember that guys miss missed the ball every 129 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 2: now and again. 130 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 8: Let me tell you this, that ball is really hard 131 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,479 Speaker 8: and it's slippery. It's not like the ball you play 132 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 8: in your backyard. 133 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 4: No like it. 134 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 8: Oh my god, it was like a yeah, I know, 135 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 8: I don't fall to guys. You know, that's why they 136 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 8: wear gloves. It's smart. Well, all right, but let me 137 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 8: let me talk about Mike Mike McCarthy because he's twelve 138 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,479 Speaker 8: and five for three straight years and everybody wants to 139 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 8: run him out of town if he doesn't go to 140 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 8: the NFC title game. I mean, just making the playoffs 141 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 8: is hard, as you pointed out, it's you know, we 142 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 8: went through before your time, Chanley. Then we had Dave 143 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:08,599 Speaker 8: Campo and Wade Phillips. Bill Parcells was not so not so, 144 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 8: not so tough. I don't like Jason Garrett, and when 145 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 8: he called us not tough, he was not tough. But 146 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 8: you know we had all those years, we barely even 147 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 8: made the playoffs two years in a row with any 148 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 8: kind of a record, let alone twelve and five. So 149 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 8: what I want to advance and to remember, and you 150 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 8: keep pointing this out, getting the playoffs is not easy, 151 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 8: and it's going to be a great year. You know, 152 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 8: I'll be cheering it right along and advancing in the playoffs. 153 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 8: You're a historian, so I just want to point out, 154 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 8: since I'm an old timer, but my first year was 155 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 8: the year of the NFL Title Game when Don Meredith 156 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 8: through the interception last play of the game, I think 157 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 8: like the two yard line against Green Bay. 158 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 9: We lost. 159 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 8: Then the next year was the Ice Bowl. We lose 160 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 8: on a last second quarterbacks. The next two years we 161 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 8: lost to a pretty good Cleveland team, although we were 162 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 8: better than Cleveland, but we lost both times. And then 163 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 8: we had the first Super Bowl, which Sports Illustrated called 164 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 8: the Blunderbowl, and we lose on the last second field 165 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 8: goal before we finally won it. So just because you know, 166 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 8: I've been as disappointed as anybody in the losses in 167 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 8: the playoffs because I'm a fan, I want to win 168 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 8: every game. But you know, just because you lose doesn't 169 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 8: mean you run the guy out of town. I think 170 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 8: it would be a big, big, big mistake and just 171 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:34,839 Speaker 8: one of your thoughts on that. 172 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 2: Okay, thank you, Dot. You know, I think we got 173 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 2: to see how this season goes. I'm I'm for I'm 174 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 2: probably one of the last guys that's going to say 175 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 2: change the change the coach because it doesn't make it 176 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 2: in the playoffs. I mean, I think getting to the 177 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 2: playoffs that, like you said, is way way harder than 178 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 2: people think, and to have and you need some stability. 179 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 2: You've got to have that within your team, within your coaches. 180 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,839 Speaker 2: And I think you know this year is going to 181 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 2: be interesting, you know, because if you start a training 182 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 2: camp and you said, hey, this defense is going to 183 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 2: be better, and you're like, well, hold up, Sam Williams, 184 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 2: who you expect to start on the outside, you know, 185 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 2: or at least be one of the top pass rushers. 186 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 2: He's gonna be out all year. Toron Bland first four 187 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 2: or five games, probably be out at least five games 188 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 2: for you. Micah Parson is going to miss a couple 189 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 2: of games. D law could miss a month, month and 190 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 2: a half in the middle of the season. Good luck, 191 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 2: good luck, Jim, good luck. 192 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:32,840 Speaker 9: You know. 193 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 2: So you have to kind of figure out how all 194 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 2: that works, and we'll see how they do and see 195 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 2: if they can get this thing turned around. All right, 196 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 2: let's uh, let's keep this thing going. We got a 197 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,719 Speaker 2: text question here from the lines are open by the 198 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 2: way eight eight eight eight five five two two nine 199 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 2: seven here all the time about how it's how hard 200 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 2: it is to get in, which is great, that's a 201 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 2: good problem to have. Uh, but I think right now, 202 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 2: if you want to call him, you should be able 203 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 2: to to get through. 204 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 7: Uh. 205 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 2: Let's go with a text question. We got Tony from Mansfield, Texas. 206 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 4: Uh. 207 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 2: It says Jerry talked about no Dalvin Cook again this week. 208 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 2: He said it on the radio Tuesday morning. Uh, one 209 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 2: oh five to three the fam again. It doesn't doesn't 210 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 2: think this is the week for Dalvin Cook to play. 211 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 2: There's got to be something else going on here. He's 212 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 2: not ready to play. He doesn't know the plays. They 213 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:31,199 Speaker 2: don't think he's that good. They don't see something in practice. 214 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,199 Speaker 2: There's something here. Okay, this is not a four time 215 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 2: Pro Bowl running back who who can just come in 216 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 2: and and and he's gonna save the day. They see 217 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 2: something that they don't like because you're dead last in 218 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,960 Speaker 2: the NFL and rushing. It's been four games, that's enough 219 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 2: of a sample size to know you're not running the ball. Well, 220 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 2: you've won two, you've lost to in Through all of that, 221 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 2: you're not running the ball. So uh, and they're trying 222 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 2: different things. Rico Dadall has started, Ezekiel Elliott has started. 223 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,679 Speaker 2: We've seen a little bit of Douce Vaughn here and there. 224 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 2: We've seen Hunter lipke H CD's running the ball. Nothing's 225 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,559 Speaker 2: really working here, and so I think your your longest, 226 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 2: you're you've only had three rushes of ten yards or more. 227 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 2: Two of them are by CD. 228 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 4: Lamb. That's a problem. That's a problem. 229 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 2: And so if if you've got Dalvin Cook on the 230 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 2: practice squad and they're not playing him, I'm gonna trust 231 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 2: the coaches, the scouts, their their eyes, their ears, they 232 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 2: they understand what's happening better than we do. So there's 233 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 2: just more to it. There's more to it than them 234 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 2: just saying now we like what we're doing here, we 235 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 2: don't need this guy. So again, at some point. I 236 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 2: would like to think he's going to be here but 237 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 2: or he's gonna play, but I guess it's not gonna 238 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 2: be this week. That's at least what Jerry said on Tuesday. 239 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Ronnie in New Jersey. Ronnie good, 240 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 2: how are you doing? 241 00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,679 Speaker 5: That's too bad? Nick? That was actually a he got 242 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 5: to my point. That was actually the question that I 243 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 5: wanted to ask you. So we're shutting him of being 244 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 5: uh uh his you know, dad was really famous and 245 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 5: the number one thing he was famous for was for 246 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 5: running the ball. So his schemes, yeah, he had great 247 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 5: running backs, but he ran the ball. So is this 248 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 5: more because of McCarthy type of scheme what he wants 249 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 5: to do with with the game plan, or because Seenheimer 250 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 5: is the offensive coordinator right or is it because the 251 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 5: interior of the line. They seem pretty good? I mean 252 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 5: right now they're ranked h Tyler Smith is ranked pretty high. 253 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,079 Speaker 5: Everybody's saying that he looks like an All Pro or 254 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 5: center b B, which that's the guy we wanted that 255 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 5: I wanted. 256 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 10: Uh. 257 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 5: Starting he's playing. I think he's playing very well and 258 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 5: and sackpoint and looks human every once in a while. 259 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 5: But he's still better than most cards. So if our 260 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 5: interior looks at as good as they do, what's the problem. 261 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 5: That's that's what I wanted to get to you, Like, 262 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 5: you're not giving any Okay, you just said that they 263 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 5: gave every run back an opportunity, but they're not giving 264 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 5: them like twenty twenty five carries. They give them ten 265 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 5: to twelve carries and then the other guy gets ten. No, 266 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 5: give the guy twenty twenty five carries and then that's 267 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 5: a true test to see who's Yeah. 268 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,839 Speaker 2: Let me let me ask you this though. Two yard run, 269 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 2: four yard run, two yard run, punt. You're okay with that? 270 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 2: I mean, because you getting the opportunities. I think the 271 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 2: biggest problem is they're not having success. I mean they're 272 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 2: not running the ball well. Zach Martin has got all 273 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:41,040 Speaker 2: the Pro bowls, Tyler Smith looks like he's going to 274 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:44,439 Speaker 2: be there and be a pro bowler forever. The same thing, 275 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 2: and Cooper Biby. All of those guys look good. But 276 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 2: whatever it is, they're not running the ball well. I mean, 277 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 2: I don't think you could really say they've abandoned the run. 278 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 2: I think they've tried and it's not working out. That's 279 00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 2: not they're not getting a lot of success there. I 280 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 2: think about what I just said, only you've only had 281 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:04,840 Speaker 2: one running back. That's how to you do not have 282 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 2: a running back that's had a rush longer than ten yards. 283 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 4: Only Rico went for ten. That is it. 284 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 2: So that shows to me that they're not having a 285 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 2: lot of success doing this. 286 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 5: And that's the guy that's looking the best right now. 287 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 5: I think if you hit give him more opportunities, you 288 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 5: might you might get a better outcome. And if you're 289 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 5: not gonna give him more opportunities, then yeah, bring up Cooks. 290 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 5: See see what he does. Because we need the running 291 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 5: game in order to help our defense, which comes up 292 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 5: the right. I'm with the buy from the Chimes game, 293 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 5: and we need the running game to help out the 294 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 5: entire team. If we get the running game, I think 295 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 5: they'll get get back more freedom or give the defense 296 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 5: or breather, and you know they'll be able to play 297 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 5: a little bit better. 298 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 2: I'm totally with you at my point, and your point 299 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 2: is right, like all the you said, if the running 300 00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 2: game does this, all of these other factors will work. 301 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 4: I believe that one thous. I just don't think Nick give. 302 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 2: He does he does. He needs a little bit more 303 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 2: every time. That's my new nickname for him is Thanksgiving. 304 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 2: That's my I'm gonna call him Thanksgiving. Just keep adding 305 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 2: stuff on his plate. He can take it. Just keep 306 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 2: keep doing it, keep. 307 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:19,120 Speaker 4: Throwing it to him. 308 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 2: All right, right, thanks, Ronie, appreciate that. I mean, you're 309 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 2: right and everything that that you're saying. I again, I 310 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 2: think if you go back and watch the games and 311 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 2: and maybe that's what I need to do is kind 312 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 2: of watch a little bit. I don't believe there's a 313 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 2: time where they're just saying that they're giving up on 314 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 2: the run. I just you're getting you're seeing a lot 315 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 2: of two yard runs, three yard runs, and that that 316 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 2: doesn't necessarily keep you running the football. Running the football, 317 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 2: you're gonna throw it. I mean that, I think that 318 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 2: they're a better passing team than they are running team. 319 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 2: So the goal is to move the football. That's the goal. 320 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,080 Speaker 2: You got to move it. I just don't believe that 321 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 2: they this team can consistently run the football to to 322 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 2: you know, move the sticks. We're just we're not seeing 323 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 2: that as much. I'll give them credit for this though. 324 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 2: Zeke is not doing a lot, but the one of 325 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 2: the biggest plays in that Giants game last week was 326 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 2: a seven yard run by Zeke in the fourth quarter. 327 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 2: They just stopped them on fourth down. They got the 328 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 2: ball back three forty five to go about on the 329 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 2: forty five of the Giants. You need a couple of 330 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 2: first downs to win this game, and or at least 331 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 2: you know, put put it away and again you know, 332 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 2: they know you're running, they know that you're gonna run 333 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 2: the football. And Zeke gets seven on first down. That 334 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 2: was huge. That was a big, big play in the 335 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 2: game because then you get two yards, I believe I 336 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 2: think Zeke got two and then Lipke got the first down. 337 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 2: For that's one first down they got. They ran seven 338 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 2: or eight yards and but got the clock down to 339 00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 2: thirty seconds kick the field goal missed it. I still 340 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 2: think McCarthy should have called time out there. I think 341 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 2: I think Abby would have nailed that kick. But whatever, 342 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 2: it doesn't matter because they won the game. But I'm 343 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 2: just saying, when they really needed to run, they got. 344 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 2: They got what they needed in the first down, but 345 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 2: they they this This running game clearly is not is 346 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 2: not working out right now, all right, let's go to 347 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:19,880 Speaker 2: a rick in Massachusetts. 348 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:23,360 Speaker 11: Rick, Hey, Nick, how you doing good? 349 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 5: How are you all right? 350 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 11: So, of course the yet you know, on the practice 351 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 11: squad or you're not practice squad, but Dard training camp, 352 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 11: we had defensive Ben Mohamed say he suspend one game, 353 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,879 Speaker 11: does that suspension starts winding on the team where that 354 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 11: expension starts at this pre at the beginning of the season. 355 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 2: He's got to be on the team for that to happen. 356 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 2: And the Cowboys chose not to do that, And I'm 357 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 2: not really sure why, because it's sure would have been nice. Now, 358 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 2: I think to just say just go through that, let 359 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 2: let him, let him be on the team. He would 360 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 2: serve a one game suspension and then they could have 361 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,160 Speaker 2: cut him if they wanted to and then bring him 362 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:08,119 Speaker 2: back or whatever. But he if any team brings him in, 363 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 2: he's still he still has to serve a suspension of 364 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 2: one game. 365 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 11: So okay. Yeah. The other question is you think that 366 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:19,919 Speaker 11: John Stevens or Florno you will get a chance. 367 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:21,439 Speaker 4: Why not? 368 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 2: I'm you know, you need a little juice. I don't 369 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 2: know what Brevin span Ford's really given you. He's given 370 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 2: you about a penalty of game. I mean that that 371 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 2: is happening, not saying John Stevens he hasn't played a 372 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 2: game before, so you know, he might have some issues 373 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,199 Speaker 2: there too, because a lot of that's on special teams. 374 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 2: But I wouldn't be opposed to to Stevens over span 375 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:45,440 Speaker 2: Ford to be active. I think that would be that 376 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,120 Speaker 2: would be fine. He gives you a little bit more 377 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,640 Speaker 2: in the passing game, I think so that that would 378 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:55,679 Speaker 2: be good. And then Flinoy, I'm for that, you know. 379 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 2: And and Flinoy, I'm not sure you need this many 380 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 2: running backs active, you know. I mean you may not 381 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:06,959 Speaker 2: need deuce active. Lipke can do a little bit more things. 382 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 2: So anyways, I'd like to see flynnoy if it works out. 383 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 2: I don't know if he has to take Jalen Brooks' spot, 384 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:16,359 Speaker 2: but I'm with you. You need a little something, little spark, 385 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,200 Speaker 2: and I think both those guys could do that at 386 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 2: their positions. 387 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 11: Okay, thanks Havingkay, Thanks man, have a good one. 388 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,680 Speaker 2: All right, let's take our first break here on Cowboys storyline. 389 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 2: We'll be right back to take more calls. 390 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:31,199 Speaker 12: See you Cowboys fans.

Leicester 433 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 2: in Minnesota. 434 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 7: Leicester, what's up, hey, Nick? 435 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:44,480 Speaker 13: How you doing out there? 436 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 7: Man? 437 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 4: I'm good? How are you doing? 438 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 13: I'm doing good. I just wanted to say this. This 439 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 13: is for everyone listening. This is how you build a team. 440 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,639 Speaker 13: You got to have a good offensive line and a 441 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 13: good defensive line. Then you get to your other players. 442 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 13: And I understand right now we have some of the 443 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 13: other players, but the biggest thing I see is that 444 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 13: we need to build up our defensive line. I don't 445 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 13: know why we ignored that so long. I couldn't they 446 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 13: we ignored it. I think they we ignored it, but 447 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:24,160 Speaker 13: we we didn't put a lot of emphasis in it. 448 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:28,360 Speaker 2: First round pick, first round pick, defensive tackle. First time 449 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 2: you took a defensive tackle in the first round in 450 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 2: thirty one years. I think they they it just wasn't 451 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 2: the guy. 452 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 4: He hasn't. 453 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,479 Speaker 2: He hasn't been great. He hasn't not been great. And 454 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:40,640 Speaker 2: they have been great drafting first round picks. They've been 455 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 2: awesome at getting first round picks whatever, especially late in there, 456 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 2: late in the first round, and they took Monzie Smith 457 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 2: and so far that hasn't materialized yet. He had a 458 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:52,879 Speaker 2: great game. He had a great game. He did have 459 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 2: a great game last week. 460 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 4: That's good. That's the start. 461 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,200 Speaker 2: But I mean, I just don't know if you can 462 00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 2: say they haven't addressed the position that they've tried. What 463 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 2: what would you have done differently? What would you do differently? 464 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 13: No, No, I said that they you know, they haven't 465 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 13: done it for they kind of didn't pay attention to 466 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:13,119 Speaker 13: it to me until Mozzie Smith. I mean, they've done it. 467 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,120 Speaker 13: They've done the little things here and there. 468 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 2: But okay, okay, third round picks and stuff like like 469 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 2: I get I get you, like you know Hankins signing 470 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 2: Hankins later. Yeah, you're you're right from that from that standpoint, 471 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:29,679 Speaker 2: and they stepped it up by getting Mozzie Smith. I 472 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 2: mean they were because because they were going like third round, 473 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 2: because Neville Gallimore in the third round, oh saw Chauncey Golston, 474 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:39,880 Speaker 2: that kind of stuff. But you're saying, put a little 475 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 2: higher inferences, and they did in the first round for Mazzie. 476 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 2: And you know that hasn't paid off just yet, but 477 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 2: it might. It might eventually. 478 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 13: And then I just I just like I said, the 479 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:53,640 Speaker 13: last time I talked to you about three weeks ago, 480 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 13: I was trying to give you a little history about 481 00:23:56,080 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 13: myself and listening the whole time as far as the 482 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 13: favorite wrestlers is with Actionsmash Demolition, my favorite cowboy of 483 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 13: all time with Tom Landry. And I think that all 484 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 13: my family are from Pittsburgh to the Pittsburgh fans, so 485 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 13: you know, I don't too much like Pisburg. Now I'm 486 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 13: the only cowboy in the family. So I think we 487 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 13: will beat the Pittsburgh this week twenty to seventeenth. 488 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:34,879 Speaker 4: All right, we'll see if you're right. 489 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,440 Speaker 2: If that's one of those nail bider games, I would 490 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 2: imagine we're gonna see a lot of that. All right, 491 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 2: let's go here to Robbie.

He's got 507 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 14: a good father. 508 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 5: In knows football. 509 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 10: Real. 510 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 14: Well, well, thank you, hey man, you're welcome. 511 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:20,920 Speaker 10: Man. 512 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 14: Well, first of all, you know, it's still the same thing. 513 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:26,680 Speaker 14: I wish our running game was better. I know you've 514 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 14: been talking about it all day. I'm sure probably eighty 515 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:34,159 Speaker 14: percent of conversation makes me look back now to the 516 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:36,720 Speaker 14: free agency and wish we could have got Dereck Henry 517 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:42,639 Speaker 14: and watching him play last night, well yeah, yeah, our 518 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 14: division still thought up the grass man. Washington is doing 519 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 14: a lot better than than I anticipated. I know the 520 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 14: pundits were saying how good they were going to do, 521 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 14: and I didn't believe him. But man, they're looking good 522 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:58,159 Speaker 14: at Daniel's kid. Who So, what do we do to 523 00:25:58,160 --> 00:25:58,920 Speaker 14: win our division? 524 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 4: Washington? 525 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 2: I mean Washington, Hey, They'll it'll come down. 526 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 4: I mean, like like Robert Griffin did the same thing, right, 527 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 4: I mean he really did. 528 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 14: Oh yeah, I remember that. 529 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 2: Teams will figure out a little bit how to slow 530 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,440 Speaker 2: him down. Jaydon Daniels might be like the next superstar. 531 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 2: He really could be. I mean that's why you draft 532 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 2: these guys number two overall. Uh, he's doing everything right 533 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 2: and and they've got a coach over there, and Dan 534 00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 2: Quinn that knows how to how to turn things around. 535 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:30,160 Speaker 4: He did. 536 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 2: They turned around this defense. He turned around Atlanta, Uh, 537 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 2: you know, and and he's turned around Washington. So you know, 538 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 2: they have good defense. They got good defensive tackles there 539 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 2: in the middle. They play hard, they are aggressive, they 540 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 2: you know, they're running the ball, they're they're playing like 541 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:46,920 Speaker 2: old school Washington football. And then they got a quarterback 542 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 2: who's who's dynamic too, so they're there. They look really 543 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,920 Speaker 2: good and you know, and that's uh, they're a lot 544 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,639 Speaker 2: better than where they were, which is typically what happens 545 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:58,160 Speaker 2: when you when you get a new coach, a new 546 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 2: system that that that kind of happens. Well, see, they 547 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 2: their schedules favorable though for them. I mean, they play 548 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:08,120 Speaker 2: Cleveland this week, they go to Baltimore, Carolina, Chicago at home, 549 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 2: at the Giants, Pittsburgh at home, so I mean at 550 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,679 Speaker 2: Philly and then Dallas. I mean they're probably gonna be uh, 551 00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:16,480 Speaker 2: they're gonna probably have a much better I don't know 552 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 2: what much better, but they're gonna have a better record 553 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 2: than the Cowboys I would think when they play them. 554 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 2: So you gotta beat them. It's always somebody, always somebody 555 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:25,480 Speaker 2: moves up and down. I think Philly is gonna be tough, 556 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 2: but Cowboy's gotta do their thing. There's no reason why 557 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,639 Speaker 2: they can they can't win this game this week in Pittsburgh. 558 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:36,880 Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, it's defensive ends. I mean, it's gonna 559 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 2: be a challenge. But I just I'm not haven't been 560 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 2: overly impressed with Pittsburgh, but but I think this will 561 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 2: be a very tough matchup because of where it is, 562 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 2: and and and just how much they need this. They're 563 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 2: coming off the loss. I think it would have been 564 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:52,199 Speaker 2: better if they would have lost, if they would have 565 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:55,200 Speaker 2: won last week and and been undefeated, be at four 566 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 2: to oh. I think it would have been a better target 567 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:01,480 Speaker 2: I think on their back than maybe this. But you know, 568 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 2: either way, it's a you can't can't worry about that. 569 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 2: It's going to happen. What's going to happen? 570 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:11,400 Speaker 4: All right, let's keep it going here. We've got Robin Vegas. Hey, Nick, Hey, Rob, 571 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:12,680 Speaker 4: how are you? 572 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:14,239 Speaker 15: Nobody's talking? I'm doing good? 573 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 5: How are you good? 574 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 4: Good? 575 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 15: You know, the one of the callers talking about Mike McCarthy, 576 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 15: and you know, twelve and five and that's good, and. 577 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:23,400 Speaker 4: All here we go. 578 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 15: No, no, no, I'm not even it's not really gonna 579 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:31,919 Speaker 15: matter who the coaches until they change their business model, 580 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 15: and they're not going. 581 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 12: To do it. 582 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:39,959 Speaker 15: They don't use free agency like other teams. No, they 583 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 15: do enough to be good, but they don't do enough 584 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 15: to be great. And what bothers me is you've seen it. 585 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 15: We've had. We've had two top ten quarterbacks for the 586 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 15: last just about twenty years now and have nothing to 587 00:28:58,240 --> 00:28:59,959 Speaker 15: show for it except his bank account. 588 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 2: Let me let me tell you something real quick. I 589 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 2: want to get your opinion on something. Okay, And I've 590 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 2: said this before. This is the Cowboys model when it 591 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 2: comes to free agency, all right. This is how they 592 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 2: believe that when free agency hits, the average players get 593 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 2: good money in free agency, and good money good players 594 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 2: get great money in free agency, and great players never 595 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:26,720 Speaker 2: see free agency. That's the way they operate. So they 596 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 2: feel like, if there it's a great player out there, 597 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 2: he's not in free. 598 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:35,480 Speaker 15: Agency, and so that's that's It hasn't worked though. It's 599 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 15: not about getting great players. It's about getting players that 600 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 15: are better than what you have. Good players and position, 601 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 15: and it could be a good player. 602 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:47,040 Speaker 4: But that's the point. You have to play great money 603 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 4: for that great. 604 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 15: Well not well, you have to you have to pay 605 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 15: the play. I mean, look, we just paid Dax sixty million. 606 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 15: He's worth sixty million a year. But that's just the 607 00:29:55,600 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 15: way it is. Here's the deal you've just been did 608 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 15: between DAK and CD What are we talking? Three hundred 609 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:04,479 Speaker 15: and fifty million dollars? 610 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, I guess yeah, give it take. 611 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:08,959 Speaker 15: The only way that makes sense is if you win 612 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 15: a Super Bowl, if you build on that like this year. 613 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 15: What bothered me the most in free agency this year, 614 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 15: and I think a lot of fans is we were 615 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,080 Speaker 15: very good last year. I know we fell apart in 616 00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 15: Green Bay against Green Bay, but this was the build 617 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 15: on it. You got guys in their prime. You know, 618 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:30,880 Speaker 15: we looked at the nineties Cowboys and yes they had 619 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 15: a great head coach and but they had a great quarterback. Well, 620 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 15: I think we got a good enough quarterback to win 621 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 15: of Cud Michael Levin, Mike Up. I mean, the difference 622 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 15: is the offensive line and the defensive line. We just 623 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 15: don't have that now. The offensive line maybe better in 624 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 15: a year or two, but right now not so much. 625 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 15: But they should have built on the team from last year, 626 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 15: because all you needed was a couple of pieces. The 627 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 15: problem is by the top they decide to do that. 628 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 15: Dak won't be in his prime, CD won't be in 629 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 15: his prime, and Mike. I don't know what they're gonna 630 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 15: do with Micah. So that's the only thing I don't understand. 631 00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 15: They just do enough to stay relevant. And I don't 632 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 15: know why we got too many star players in positions 633 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 15: that everybody wants. Like we always said, if Dak would 634 00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 15: have hit free agency, everybody, every team that need a 635 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 15: quarterback went after him ce d there we got star players, 636 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 15: even on the offensive line with Tyler Smith. I know 637 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 15: Zach martin't the guy he was, but they should have 638 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 15: built on that. But they just don't use free agency. 639 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 15: And I know you overpay a little bit, but all 640 00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 15: they need is a piece like Philadelphia did. As much 641 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 15: as I can't stand them, they they've been to two 642 00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 15: Super Bowls and one one and we haven't seen anything 643 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 15: in thirty years. So the business model is bad. And 644 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:03,240 Speaker 15: I want to ask you one question, and I know 645 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 15: I'm putting you on spot. Do you think Jerry Jones 646 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 15: would rather win a Super Bowl? 647 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 4: Yes? 648 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 16: Yes, yes, wait wait, no, no, there there's there is 649 00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 16: there is a Buttau. 650 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 15: But he wouldn't be involved. He would give up everything. 651 00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 15: He would just sit in the box like most owners would. 652 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 15: You think he'd rather do that or just be doing 653 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 15: what he's doing right now, but be. 654 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:34,680 Speaker 2: Involved win a Super Bowl because he would be involved, 655 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Like you're talking about this year, 656 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 2: like like this year or next year or whatever, he 657 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 2: would still be involved because. 658 00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 15: No, no, he can't be involved, but he has. 659 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 16: Got to give up. 660 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 15: Okay, GM got to give up, gim and and just 661 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,240 Speaker 15: sit in the box like Robert Kraft and all the 662 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:53,320 Speaker 15: other great owners. You just enjoy the success of the team. 663 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 4: He would more. 664 00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:56,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, he would take that. Yeah, thanks for the call. 665 00:32:57,120 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 2: He would do that because because a couple of things. 666 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 2: The one thing that he loves more than owning the 667 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:09,960 Speaker 2: team and and and being the GM and all that 668 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:14,479 Speaker 2: is his family and and his family would be running it, 669 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 2: and Steven would be running it, and Steven would get 670 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 2: credit then or or you know, and Jerry ultimately would 671 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 2: get credit for in his own way too, because you 672 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 2: had to remember all this stuff. I mean, he's still 673 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 2: the GM. For a lot of these players that are 674 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 2: still here, so you can't just say that he had 675 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 2: nothing to do with it. I get what you're saying, 676 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 2: but I'm just saying I think he would take that. 677 00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 2: He would take that because of what the success that 678 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 2: that would mean for his family, and also what it 679 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 2: would mean because his legacy, because he still would be 680 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 2: a guy that built this. So I think that's you know, 681 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:50,920 Speaker 2: that's interesting. But he wants to win a super Bowl 682 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 2: and he would definitely do that if they thought that 683 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 2: was the right way. But all right, let's go to 684 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:58,080 Speaker 2: Mike in Birmingham, England. 685 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 17: It took me forty three goals to get through tonight. 686 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 17: You are a very very popular man. I've got to 687 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 17: congratulate you on the huge success of this show. Well 688 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 17: done to you. 689 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 2: Thank you so much.

I know it's later over there. 691 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 4: Thank you. 692 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:14,440 Speaker 13: Well, it's all right. 693 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:18,439 Speaker 17: Actually it's about half past four, so so not too 694 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 17: bad time wise. Shout out to Zach in kaisers laut 695 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:24,680 Speaker 17: in Germany. You know when he called a couple of 696 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,000 Speaker 17: weeks ago said he was in Kaiserslauton, And I'm sure 697 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:29,439 Speaker 17: most of your listeners were the same as you. Yep, 698 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,880 Speaker 17: don't know where that is. But so you're one listener 699 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:34,839 Speaker 17: who happens to be a fan of what for the FC, 700 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:37,560 Speaker 17: That word kaiser flouten reminds us of one of the 701 00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:40,040 Speaker 17: greatest nights in our history. So thank you Zach for 702 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:42,440 Speaker 17: bringing that's that's what sport can do and that was 703 00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 17: pretty cool. But anyway, you don't want to hear about that. 704 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 17: You want to hear about Cowboys. So I just caught 705 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:51,719 Speaker 17: the end of your last caller, So I don't know 706 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:55,239 Speaker 17: if I'm kind of overlapping a little bit. I've said 707 00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:57,279 Speaker 17: to you before, Nick, I'm still learning this game, and 708 00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 17: your callers are great. You know, they study the game 709 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 17: aim they know it inside out. And I love to 710 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:04,799 Speaker 17: listen more than talk. But one thing I feel that 711 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:08,360 Speaker 17: I can kind of talk about because it cuts across 712 00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:11,319 Speaker 17: sports and you know, all kinds of sports teams. We 713 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,320 Speaker 17: all feel that we know how our sports team should 714 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:17,839 Speaker 17: be run, right, We all feel like we could make 715 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 17: a good fist of it. And you took a call 716 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 17: last week from someone who this isn't a criticism, it's 717 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 17: a valid view, someone who was criticizing the front office 718 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:31,960 Speaker 17: for maxing out the credit card and therefore we couldn't 719 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 17: make moves in the summer, and then meanwhile this week 720 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 17: we've got people talking about how, you know, we've got 721 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 17: twenty plus million cap space, let's use it, let's let's 722 00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:46,800 Speaker 17: let's spend our money, and so on. For your comments 723 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 17: yesterday about what sort of season this is on with you, 724 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 17: You've got to enjoy the ride. 725 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:51,440 Speaker 14: I've said that before. 726 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:54,480 Speaker 17: You know, whatever's happening, we've got football, let's enjoy it. 727 00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 17: And you know, it doesn't feel like this is our 728 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:02,360 Speaker 17: year in terms of doing something amaze, but who knows, 729 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:07,200 Speaker 17: it's sport. Anything can happen, and let's see. But right 730 00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 17: at the moment, and I want to know where you 731 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:12,239 Speaker 17: think about this. Right at the moment, I would be 732 00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 17: keeping my money in my pocket. And let's say, if 733 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 17: we win the next three games, then maybe this season 734 00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 17: takes a different complexion and maybe we go for it 735 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:24,120 Speaker 17: a bit. But I'm thinking with our young players and 736 00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:28,719 Speaker 17: you know, Back and CD signed and they'll be a 737 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 17: smaller percentage of the cap in a couple of years. 738 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 17: I'm not giving up this season, but there could be 739 00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:36,279 Speaker 17: a window opening in a year or two times. Let's 740 00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:38,839 Speaker 17: hang on to our money and see what happens. It's 741 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 17: wondering what you think about that. 742 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:44,360 Speaker 2: All right, all right, thank you. Always is something that 743 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:48,320 Speaker 2: the all sports teams. I mean, it happens in baseball 744 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:52,840 Speaker 2: a lot, not so much maybe the NBA, but it 745 00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 2: happens definitely an NFL and baseball where you're like, where 746 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,799 Speaker 2: are you in the middle of the season. Are you 747 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 2: going for it or are you gonna kind of stay back? 748 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:05,000 Speaker 2: And then that doesn't mean that you're trying to lose games. 749 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:07,600 Speaker 2: It just means that you're not trying to, you know, 750 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 2: dip into the future for to try to fix this 751 00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:15,040 Speaker 2: team right right now, you're trying to develop these young 752 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:16,839 Speaker 2: players and see how how it goes. 753 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:18,160 Speaker 4: You know. 754 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,399 Speaker 2: I thought the Rams were an interesting team last year 755 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:23,960 Speaker 2: because I think they were just trying to develop players 756 00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:26,719 Speaker 2: last year and uh and then they snuck around and 757 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:29,399 Speaker 2: got into the playoffs, you know, and so that's kind 758 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,840 Speaker 2: of what the Rams were the team. I kept hearing 759 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 2: that that the Cowboys were kind of hoping that it 760 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 2: would go like that this year, that they're gonna have 761 00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 2: to stay the course, stay the course, develop play some 762 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:43,239 Speaker 2: young guys. So I don't think there will be If 763 00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:44,960 Speaker 2: you're asking if I think there'll be a trade or 764 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 2: anything like that. I don't I don't think it'll be 765 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:51,880 Speaker 2: a significant one, Jerry Jones said on the air Tuesday morning. 766 00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:57,520 Speaker 2: He said that, you know, usually, it rarely, it rarely 767 00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 2: pans out. It's wishful thinking to think you're gonna get 768 00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:05,480 Speaker 2: somebody in a trade that's going to come in and 769 00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 2: help you right now, because there's a reason why they 770 00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:09,440 Speaker 2: were trading for him and all that kind of stuff, 771 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:12,200 Speaker 2: And it's usually because of money. And obviously I don't 772 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:14,240 Speaker 2: think the Cowboys are willing to take on a big 773 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:17,880 Speaker 2: contract for that. Remember, everything they've got under the salary 774 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 2: cap they are trying to move to next year. Next 775 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:22,960 Speaker 2: year is going to be a problem. If you thought 776 00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:25,440 Speaker 2: free agency was bad this year, it's gonna be real 777 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 2: bad next year as far as who they're going to 778 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:29,719 Speaker 2: lose and who they're not going to sign and all that. 779 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:31,279 Speaker 2: They're going to try to save as much money as 780 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:34,160 Speaker 2: they can. So all these reports you hear about salary 781 00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:36,359 Speaker 2: cap and what they have under the cap, it's all 782 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,719 Speaker 2: really pushing pushing for next year.

He loves being up there watching 815 00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:21,480 Speaker 2: those horses and all that. All right, Chris, what do 816 00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:21,839 Speaker 2: you got? 817 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:24,840 Speaker 16: I know you probably already talked a little bit about it, 818 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:27,800 Speaker 16: but I'm having an issue with Brandon Cooks. To be honest, 819 00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:29,320 Speaker 16: I have not talked about. 820 00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:32,160 Speaker 4: It, have not talked about it, But go for it. 821 00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 9: I just don't. I mean, I watch I mean a 822 00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:38,960 Speaker 9: Cowboys fan my entire life. I dissect every game. I'm 823 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:42,799 Speaker 9: watching him, especially during the games, and he's getting zero 824 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,719 Speaker 9: separation from the cornerbacks. So when are we gonna like 825 00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:48,960 Speaker 9: to look at this and say, hey, maybe we should 826 00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:52,879 Speaker 9: give somebody else a chance like Ryan's Lornery that's sitting there, 827 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:58,440 Speaker 9: even Turpin, Jalen Brooks that are in Jalen Tolbert. I mean, 828 00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 9: there's so many other options. What are they going to 829 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:02,880 Speaker 9: look at it and say, hey, this guy's not working 830 00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:05,600 Speaker 9: out and maybe stood him on the bench. 831 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:12,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, he needs to step up, there's no doubt about it. 832 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:16,160 Speaker 2: But what they are missing, they're missing that. And I'll 833 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:19,600 Speaker 2: tell you I was super surprised because I thought that 834 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:23,440 Speaker 2: he was going to have a big season, especially with 835 00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:25,680 Speaker 2: him being the number one guy at training camp with 836 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:30,120 Speaker 2: CD out and the rapport that Dak had created with him. 837 00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:33,000 Speaker 4: I thought, Man, we're gonna have a really, really big season. 838 00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:36,600 Speaker 2: Let me just tell you one thing really quick about 839 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:40,440 Speaker 2: about this from going into last year with Brandon Cooks. Okay, 840 00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:44,279 Speaker 2: we're four games in this. After four weeks last year, 841 00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:47,680 Speaker 2: Brandon Cooks in first game, two catches twenty two yards. 842 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:51,280 Speaker 2: Second game he was hurt. Third game, two catches seventeen yards, 843 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:54,640 Speaker 2: and then he had four catches twenty seven yards. Fifth 844 00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:58,640 Speaker 2: game he had one catch for seven yards. So after 845 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:02,360 Speaker 2: five weeks of the sea and we got nine catches 846 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:04,960 Speaker 2: for less than one hundred yards. It looks like about 847 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:08,160 Speaker 2: sixty yards. Nine catches for sixty yards five games into 848 00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:13,600 Speaker 2: the season. Okay, he ends up catching eight touchdowns. He 849 00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:16,320 Speaker 2: had one hundred and seventy three yard game against the Giants. 850 00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:19,839 Speaker 2: It was his only one hundred yard game, but he did. 851 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,879 Speaker 2: He did have you know, he caught two, three, four, five, 852 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,000 Speaker 2: you know passes. He got better and better as the 853 00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:26,719 Speaker 2: year went on. He got that it seemed like he 854 00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:28,239 Speaker 2: was catching a touchdown in the corner of the end 855 00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 2: zone every single week. So I'll say this, and I'm 856 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:32,960 Speaker 2: not sure why there's another slow start. I don't know 857 00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:34,960 Speaker 2: if that's a career thing for him. I don't think 858 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:37,240 Speaker 2: it is. But last year he had a slow start, 859 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 2: he came on kind of strong at the end. Him 860 00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:42,520 Speaker 2: and CD together they were like gangbusters at the end. 861 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:44,959 Speaker 2: So let's see if he can do that again, because 862 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:47,800 Speaker 2: we've seen it happen before. That's that's all. That's half 863 00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:50,920 Speaker 2: glass half full there for Brandon Cooks. But there's no 864 00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:53,359 Speaker 2: doubt about it that number two receiver has to step up. 865 00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:55,360 Speaker 4: Michael Bowling, Green, Kentucky. 866 00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:56,439 Speaker 16: What's going on? 867 00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:57,160 Speaker 4: How you doing? 868 00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:03,240 Speaker 19: I was just telling christ complete positivity for the Cowboys season. 869 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:03,839 Speaker 4: Why not? 870 00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:08,000 Speaker 19: Hey, par sales said that you want to be the 871 00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:09,879 Speaker 19: end of September, five hundred. 872 00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:10,680 Speaker 6: Of bed were five hundred. 873 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:14,799 Speaker 2: So I said, I don't remember him saying that, but 874 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:15,959 Speaker 2: I mean it sounds. 875 00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:17,600 Speaker 19: I read that quote the other day. 876 00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:20,200 Speaker 2: He said that I never heard that one, but that, 877 00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:22,400 Speaker 2: I mean, the only thing that I always heard him 878 00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:25,560 Speaker 2: say was just talk to me and Thanksgiving, that's where 879 00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:27,080 Speaker 2: you need to be and all that. 880 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:27,480 Speaker 4: I mean. 881 00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:30,800 Speaker 2: I think I think at this point, looking at the 882 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:33,480 Speaker 2: Cowboys schedule, I think, you know, most people thought they 883 00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:37,439 Speaker 2: would probably be three and one, you know, maybe lose 884 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:41,840 Speaker 2: to to Baltimore or Cleveland, but probably split one of 885 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:44,480 Speaker 2: those two games and then be three and one. But 886 00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:46,799 Speaker 2: the New Orleans game sitting there, and it's a bad loss. 887 00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:49,000 Speaker 2: It wasn't like it was a good one. It was 888 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:50,600 Speaker 2: a bad loss. They don't look to be that great. 889 00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:53,680 Speaker 2: They look average to the Saints, so that's kind of scary. 890 00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 2: But again, it's a matchup League and the Cowboys. But 891 00:43:56,800 --> 00:44:00,160 Speaker 2: here's the thing. The next three opponents. The one thing 892 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:05,280 Speaker 2: you can always describe with those teams Detroit, Pittsburgh, Detroit, 893 00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:08,040 Speaker 2: San Francisco, what's the one thing they all have in common. 894 00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:09,520 Speaker 19: We're gonna beat all three of us. 895 00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:12,439 Speaker 4: Okay, I like, Michael, there you go to your show, 896 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:13,480 Speaker 4: your show, go ahead. 897 00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:17,640 Speaker 19: Also the shout out to Kaijri Sladen. We called it 898 00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:19,600 Speaker 19: K Town. I used to live right down the street 899 00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:22,280 Speaker 19: from there for about two years when I was stationed 900 00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:25,279 Speaker 19: at Ramstein and I got a question real quick. You 901 00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:30,600 Speaker 19: have the international calls and stuff I've once heard. Maybe 902 00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:32,440 Speaker 19: you can tell me this is true or not. Do 903 00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 19: the Cowboys have season ticket holders in all fifty states 904 00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 19: in a few countries? Is that true? Or was it 905 00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:40,399 Speaker 19: just something I heard. 906 00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:43,640 Speaker 4: I don't know that. 907 00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:46,320 Speaker 2: I don't know that they have a season ticket holder 908 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 2: in Montana. 909 00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:51,040 Speaker 4: Or Rhode Island or Vermont. Well, I don't know. 910 00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:53,799 Speaker 2: That's a good question. I could probably figure that out. 911 00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:55,719 Speaker 2: It's a good question for you, Michael. You call enough 912 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:57,520 Speaker 2: next time you call, see if I'll have an answer 913 00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:01,800 Speaker 2: for that. I would imagine it's it's closed. That seems 914 00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:06,000 Speaker 2: like something that that seems like something that you you know, 915 00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:08,920 Speaker 2: I mean, you probably have they have these these caller, 916 00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:11,960 Speaker 2: I mean, these season ticket holders probably have ties to 917 00:45:12,120 --> 00:45:14,040 Speaker 2: these other states. Maybe they don't live there, but maybe 918 00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:17,040 Speaker 2: they're from there or whatever. I don't know that answer, 919 00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:19,920 Speaker 2: but that seems like that would be possible. You're talking 920 00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:27,239 Speaker 2: about sixty thousand season ticket holders. That's very possible that 921 00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:30,680 Speaker 2: there's one in every sting. All right, let's go to 922 00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:33,840 Speaker 2: Ali in Florida, be our last caller today. 923 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,799 Speaker 7: Good morning, there are you pretty good? 924 00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:37,399 Speaker 5: Not too bad? 925 00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 7: Cleaning up the house after it's a stupid storm. 926 00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:42,839 Speaker 9: I'll make it quick. 927 00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:47,600 Speaker 7: What do you think about I don't know, you can't 928 00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:52,280 Speaker 7: comment on it or not. I think we are fighting 929 00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:53,920 Speaker 7: for the playoffs, but we have a lot of a 930 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:57,000 Speaker 7: couple of good pieces. But if I have to make 931 00:45:57,040 --> 00:46:02,600 Speaker 7: a change, what do you think if Cowboys go after Belichick? 932 00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:06,440 Speaker 7: Because I have a get in a little bit noise 933 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:10,440 Speaker 7: that Eagle is going after that. I think I really 934 00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:13,400 Speaker 7: don't like to see Belichick. We go to Eagle. But 935 00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:17,200 Speaker 7: is that I was thinking, if you get a Belichick, 936 00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:22,680 Speaker 7: then we get maybe Danian Woodson as a defensive coordinator. 937 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:25,959 Speaker 7: He can get groom on the Belichick. Then we bring 938 00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:28,920 Speaker 7: the Romo as an offensive coordinator. That's all I have. 939 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:30,719 Speaker 7: Let me know what you think? 940 00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:31,120 Speaker 4: All right? 941 00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:31,440 Speaker 7: Thank you? 942 00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:40,279 Speaker 4: Awesome? Yeah, maybe maybe that I love it. 943 00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:43,799 Speaker 2: I love it, just anything else anything else that I mean, 944 00:46:43,880 --> 00:46:47,520 Speaker 2: Parcels could come back he could be like a you know, 945 00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:51,520 Speaker 2: he could be some kind of consultant ape man. Got 946 00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:54,200 Speaker 2: to get him involved in there as well him it. 947 00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:56,080 Speaker 2: He might just bring him back to run the ball. 948 00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:58,000 Speaker 2: I mean, he could probably be a running back for you. 949 00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:01,800 Speaker 2: Who else you know, need a We need a a 950 00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:04,359 Speaker 2: like a some kind of coach, you know, like in 951 00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:08,560 Speaker 2: your face, uh, you know, rally coach, like a Randy 952 00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:13,200 Speaker 2: White or something like that. Uh hmm, two tall Jones. 953 00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:14,160 Speaker 2: We got to get him back. 954 00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:15,320 Speaker 4: Ali. 955 00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:18,520 Speaker 2: You're you're dreaming. You're dreaming over there. Hey, he said, 956 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:20,520 Speaker 2: he said that the storm. He's cleaning up the house. 957 00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:22,480 Speaker 2: Hope everything's good there. I know a lot of a 958 00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:24,760 Speaker 2: lot of stuff, a lot of bad stuff with the 959 00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:27,640 Speaker 2: floods and hurricanes and things like that in that southeast 960 00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:30,520 Speaker 2: region Florida and all that. So hope everyone is safe there. 961 00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:35,040 Speaker 2: But yeah, you're you're kind of you're kind of uh, 962 00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:38,080 Speaker 2: you're you're out there. This is like that's a dreamland talk. 963 00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:40,800 Speaker 2: But again, you're right. The first thing you said was 964 00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:45,200 Speaker 2: I can't talk about like the next coach, the next quarterback, 965 00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:48,879 Speaker 2: the next running back. I mean, it's it's that's why 966 00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:50,640 Speaker 2: we do what we do. We have to stay in 967 00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:53,160 Speaker 2: the moment. If we didn't stay in the moment, we 968 00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:55,560 Speaker 2: wouldn't be able to have this show. Like you guys 969 00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:57,959 Speaker 2: can talk like that, like seriously, you guys can say 970 00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:00,240 Speaker 2: that and that's what's on your mind and you're thinking 971 00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:03,280 Speaker 2: like that. You know I can't do that. The focus 972 00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:06,240 Speaker 2: for me is these next few shows before we go 973 00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:09,360 Speaker 2: to Pittsburgh. What does this team need to do to 974 00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:12,719 Speaker 2: get better to win the next game in Pittsburgh And 975 00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:15,360 Speaker 2: if that happens, or if it doesn't happen, what went wrong? 976 00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:18,160 Speaker 2: What has to change for them to turn things around 977 00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:21,160 Speaker 2: and get better and beat the Lions, Because the Lions 978 00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:24,040 Speaker 2: are gonna come in here pissed. Yeah, they're gonna be 979 00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:26,520 Speaker 2: thinking about this next game, but you know they're still 980 00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:29,239 Speaker 2: worried about last week's game or last year's game and 981 00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:31,759 Speaker 2: all that kind of stuff. So Dan Campbell will have 982 00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:34,480 Speaker 2: something for that. My question when Michael cut me off, 983 00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:35,359 Speaker 2: he's got his own answer. 984 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:36,000 Speaker 4: That's fine. 985 00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:38,880 Speaker 2: My answer to what those three got those three teams 986 00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:42,920 Speaker 2: have in common. Pittsburgh, Detroit, San Francisco. They're tough. It's nails, 987 00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:46,480 Speaker 2: tough as nails. They're tough, tough football team. Cowboys have 988 00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:49,200 Speaker 2: to show the toughness to even stay on that level, 989 00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:51,600 Speaker 2: because that's one thing we found out. If you're a 990 00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:55,040 Speaker 2: tough team, Cowboys have problems with those kind of teams 991 00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:57,719 Speaker 2: because they run the football and they keep running it, 992 00:48:58,160 --> 00:49:00,399 Speaker 2: and it's tough for they get the lead and tough 993 00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:03,480 Speaker 2: for the Cowboys to get back. We're gonna their toughness 994 00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:06,600 Speaker 2: is going to be tested, not just their depth on 995 00:49:06,719 --> 00:49:09,000 Speaker 2: the defensive line and the path rusher and all that 996 00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:11,640 Speaker 2: in the running game.
