1
00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:05,280
Speaker 1: The following He's a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com

2
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:07,119
Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.

3
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:10,320
Speaker 2: Cowboys.

4
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:17,040
Speaker 1: This He's Cowboys Storyline with Nick Eatman.

5
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 2: What's up everyone, Welcome to Cowboys Storyline. I'm your host,

6
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 2: Nick Eatman, and it is time to talk Cowboys Football's

7
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:30,640
Speaker 2: we always do. It's that point in the week where

8
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,640
Speaker 2: we can, we definitely want to look ahead. I don't

9
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:34,839
Speaker 2: know if that you get to that point in the

10
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,800
Speaker 2: week after a loss like the Cowboys just had against

11
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 2: the Saints. I think that that process starts immediately, but

12
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,120
Speaker 2: it is that point in the week where you still

13
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 2: look back a little if you want to, and certainly

14
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaker 2: looking forward, all eyes ahead to a desperate Baltimore Ravens

15
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 2: team that's zero to two coming in here with the

16
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 2: ringing MVP Lamar Jackson, and I just hope the Cowboys

17
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 2: match that level of death, because it seems pretty desperate

18
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:06,000
Speaker 2: when you get beat at home by twenty five points

19
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 2: to a team that you thought you were better than

20
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:10,960
Speaker 2: you but you weren't for sure in that game, and

21
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 2: they were out physical and if they thought that the

22
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 2: Saints brought it from a physicality standpoint, Baltimore is going

23
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 2: to do the same. And you know they have tape.

24
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 2: Everyone watches film. They know, oh they could run the ball. Well,

25
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 2: we can run the ball. We got the biggest running

26
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 2: back in the world and the history of running backs

27
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 2: and Derrick Henry and we got probably the best running

28
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 2: quarterback in the history of football. You can argue that

29
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,679
Speaker 2: if you want, But Lamar Jackson it's pretty name good

30
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 2: running the ball. So they're going to be able to

31
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 2: do that. So anyways, we'll talk about all that. We

32
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,479
Speaker 2: can talk about the game last week if you want,

33
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 2: the Saints game and the Monday night game that was

34
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 2: pretty interesting with Atlanta coming back to beat the Eagles.

35
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 2: I got some opinions about that. But we can talk

36
00:01:57,800 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 2: about all of that. We got a different, you know,

37
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 2: two audiences here. We've got Dallas Cowboys dot Com. You guys,

38
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 2: the faithful listeners on Cowboys storyline's been with us here

39
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 2: for the last year and a half. We also got

40
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,679
Speaker 2: some from Bali Sports. We welcome them in as well

41
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 2: as we do it. This is a show for the fans.

42
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 2: You guys get a chance to sound off, and I'm

43
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 2: sure after last week's game there's plenty to sound off about,

44
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 2: all right, let's get to the calls. We know the

45
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 2: phone line. The phone line is eight eight eight eight

Speaker 3: What's going on? Shout out to the whole Cowboys nation.

49
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 3: I know this week what didn't go, you know how

50
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 3: we wanted it to go, But it's all good. I'm

51
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:43,359
Speaker 3: gonna go ahead and just encourage my fellow Cowboy fans

52
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 3: and say R E L A X. Look, ain't go

53
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 3: the way we want. Yes, sir, things ain't go the

54
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,519
Speaker 3: way we wanted them to go. But we got to

55
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 3: take it together. And you know what, I think at

56
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 3: times I've kind of came off maybe as a negative

57
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 3: ned but I'm gonna go ahead and say that. You know,

58
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 3: we got a lot of youngsters that that are up

59
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 3: and coming. We gotta let them adjust. Not only that,

60
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 3: but but uh, this Mike Zimmer defense. You know, it's

61
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 3: still work in progress, you know, so so I wouldn't

62
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 3: count us out yet, you know. And then also I

63
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 3: I've heard you know, and and Nick, you know, I've

64
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 3: come on, I've I've I've expressed you sometimes I wasn't

65
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,800
Speaker 3: happy with Dak Prescott, but I just want to say

66
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 3: that man, all this negativity I hear about him, I

67
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 3: I I I think it's I think it's a bunch

68
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 3: of hogwash. Man Dak Prescott is not the reason to

69
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 3: blame for that game. The interception that he threw, the

70
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 3: receiver slipped and and I don't think it's his fault

71
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 3: at all. So I just want to tell everybody's just

72
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 3: settled down, relax. And also one more thing, if I

73
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 3: could say, Man, I I hey Bob real brad Man.

74
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 3: I love hearing that guy in his take. Man, he's awesome.

75
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 3: He he uh he to me, he sounds like what

76
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 3: a what a?

77
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 4: What a?

78
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 3: What a Texas cowboy should sound like.

79
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 2: I gotta I gotta shout out to you as well,

80

Speaker 2: I love gifts, you know, love love love T shirt

110
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 2: and gifts, especially when it says like the name of Colton, California.

111
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,039
Speaker 2: I'm like, when I ever, if I ever hear Colton, California,

112
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 2: that's what I'm gonna think. I'm gonna think, all right, Well,

113
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,839
Speaker 2: that's that's Michael. There's there's you know. I mean, I

114
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 2: don't know much about Bowling Green, Kentucky, but if, if,

115
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 2: if that's the case, I'll be looking for a guy

116
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 2: named Michael, you know, from Bowling Green, Kentucky, in just

117
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,599
Speaker 2: different places like that. I'm trying to think of other

118
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,280
Speaker 2: ones on the top of my head. Oh, I mean,

119
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 2: definitely Northport, Florida. I would think of Dylan, even though

120
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 2: Dylan might be thinking of talking cowboys. But whatever, all right,

121
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 2: let's go to Zach in Atlanta. Zach you're next.

122
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 6: Hey, good morning, Nick. How are you. I'm good, I'm

123
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 6: doing all right. I I don't have a T shirt

124
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:09,720
Speaker 6: for you like Michael had, but I do have an analogy.

125
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 6: You know, game games like Sunday, you get up from

126
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 6: the toilet and you look at it and you just

127
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 6: flush it and walk away. You know what I'm saying.

128
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 6: But performances like that are are hard, hard to flush.

129
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:28,119
Speaker 2: They're stubborn, and uh, you have to wipe the slate

130
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 2: clean first.

131
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 6: I think you got to use the wet wipe, you right, All.

132
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 2: Right, let's let's pivot, let's let's.

133
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,720
Speaker 6: So what we're doing is we're washing our hands, You're right,

134
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 6: and then we're going out and we're taking on the

135
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 6: next challenge. You know, I don't know, we just seem

136
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 6: to have these performances over the years, uh where there's

137
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:57,480
Speaker 6: some hiccups and you're just like, okay, the talent should

138
00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 6: be there on paper, although I don't know, man, this

139
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 6: this year is like, hey, somebody's got to step up

140
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,039
Speaker 6: on offense. I know we were down Ferguson, but I

141
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 6: don't think a Jake Ferguson helps the offense that much more.

142
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 6: And granted I know that loss is on the defense,

143
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 6: but on the defensive side, you know they steamed away

144
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 6: from Micah. Who else is going to make the play?

145
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 6: I know that's kind of been a conversation for us.

146
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 6: The storyliners is you know who else is going to

147
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 6: step up? Do we have those guys on the roster,

148
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 6: these young guys, or are we gonna have to outsource,

149
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 6: you know, before the trade deadline. But thankfully plenty of

150
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 6: games ahead of us, we'll see what happens. But yeah,

151
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 6: moving forward, and uh, you know, we got the Ravens

152
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 6: coming up this week. Doesn't get easier. But I was

153
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 6: I was looking, and I see Andre Girod actually played

154
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 6: one season with the Ravens after he departed Dallas, And

155
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 6: so I think of Andre Gerrod in the situation with

156
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 6: Albert Hainsworth. But any thoughts comments on our old center

157
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 6: and with that, I will flush and hang out.

158
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 7: Take care?

159
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 2: All right? Nice? All right? Well, you know Andre Gerard,

160
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 2: I mean you just mentioned him. Yeah that if you

161
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 2: play that game Immaculate Grid where you have to pick

162
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 2: players that played at two different teams, that would be

163
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 2: a good one for Baltimore. I actually forgot that he

164
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 2: played there as well. But yeah, Gerard is one of

165
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 2: the funniest players that's ever played for the Cowboys, and

166
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:36,839
Speaker 2: just hilarious stories since he got here. I mean, he

167
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 2: was always really funny. And and then you know, a

168
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 2: really good player too, Like sadly, it took a guy

169
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 2: kicking his helmet off and like stomping on his face,

170
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 2: Albert Haynesworth. That got him kind of like, you know what,

171
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,199
Speaker 2: he's a really good player also, you know, and then

172
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 2: he made the Pro Bowl that year, and he made

173
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 2: five straight. I'm not saying that that helped him make

174
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 2: the Pro Bowl, but I think it was. It just

175
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:03,560
Speaker 2: was one of those things where, man, this this guy,

176
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 2: he's you know, he's he's really good. He's not just

177
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 2: the guy that got kicked on a stupid move by

178
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,480
Speaker 2: by Hainsworth. But but you know, he's a really good player,

179
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 2: and you know, he had a he had a great

180
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:17,840
Speaker 2: career for the Cowboys. One of the best centers, I think,

181
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,080
Speaker 2: one of the best centers of all time, uh that's

182
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,080
Speaker 2: played for the Cowboys. But you're right, you know it's

183
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,680
Speaker 2: time to move forward, uh from from last week's game.

184
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 2: And you know, no one, no one feel sorry for him,

185
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 2: you know, and no one feels sorry for that.

186
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 8: You know.

187
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 2: The Ravens certainly don't, and and they you know, and

188
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 2: the Cowboys don't feel sorry for them. I mean, this

189
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 2: is gonna be one of those games where it's gonna

190
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,079
Speaker 2: be a very physical one, and you know, it's a

191
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,360
Speaker 2: little worrisome for the Cowboys when you think of injury situations,

192
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 2: you think of Jake Ferguson and his and you know,

193
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,760
Speaker 2: his knee injury. He could play in this game. I mean,

194
00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 2: it's gonna be probably close, we'll see how he practices.

195
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 2: But let's not forget that how physical this game probably

196
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,959
Speaker 2: will be. And then you've got aootball game in four

197
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 2: days on top of that against the Giants. So and

198
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 2: obviously the Giants don't look like a stellar team right now,

199
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,480
Speaker 2: but it's a division team, and you know they'll they'll

200
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 2: be desperate in their own way and wanting to beat

201
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,559
Speaker 2: the Cowboys. And four days is still four days. And so, uh,

202
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,439
Speaker 2: that's what I think this team really needs to look

203
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,199
Speaker 2: at is, you know, they they've got they've got a

204
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 2: tough road ahead here with a couple of really really

205
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 2: physical uh a physical game going on. They were out

206
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 2: physical this last game against the Saints, and they've got

207
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:33,959
Speaker 2: to figure a way to pick up the pieces and

208
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,440
Speaker 2: play you know, two games here in the next uh,

209
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 2: you know, in the next week, you know, week and

210
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 2: a half for sure. So all right, let's go to

211
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 2: Brian in Kansas City. Brian is next.

212
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:46,479
Speaker 7: Good morning, sir, Hey Brian.

213
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:48,199
Speaker 9: How's it going this morning?

214
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 2: It's good? How are you?

215
00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 9: I'm doing good. I got a day off and thought

216
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 9: i'd give you a holler good. So, you know, I

217
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 9: wish I could have called in last week. That would

218
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,080
Speaker 9: have been an easier time to call in, but uh,

219
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 9: you know, it is what it is. In the famous

220
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 9: words of Chumbo Wumba, we get knocked down and we

221
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 9: get up again.

222
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 2: True, true.

223
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 10: So well, you know, one of.

224
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,680
Speaker 9: The things that we see, if you're a longtime football fan,

225
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:18,719
Speaker 9: that we see sometimes is organizations. And maybe you can

226
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 9: just give your opinion on how you've seen this over

227
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 9: so many years now. Organizations sometimes like there's a there's

228
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 9: a glaring need and it just sits there. And stopping

229
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 9: the run has been kind of a glaring need for

230
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:35,679
Speaker 9: a while. Before that, it was bad safety play and

231
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 9: the team wouldn't invest in safeties, you know, and then

232
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 9: dan Quinn came along and our safety play got better.

233
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 9: But now we got excuse me, we had a bad

234
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:49,040
Speaker 9: run defense right right, and and you know, just wonder what,

235
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 9: you know, like everybody on the outside, everybody knows like, okay,

236
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 9: getting these guys off the scrap heaps that aren't good

237
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 9: enough to play on anybody else's team doesn't seem to

238
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 9: be it, you know, and go back to Poe or

239
00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 9: you know, and it's not like they're not trying, you know,

240
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 9: they invested a first round draft pick that just didn't

241
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:11,560
Speaker 9: hasn't panned out so far. So yeah, just but you know,

242
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 9: when you see that, you know kind of what happens.

243
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 9: And I wanted to give a shout out Anthony and

244
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:21,560
Speaker 9: Miami when he's saying the Andy Don Meredith Monday Night closing,

245
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 9: Monday Night Football closing.

246
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 7: I just loved it.

247
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 9: I remember that Terry.

248
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 7: Bradshaw saying that when when Meredith passed away, and.

249
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 9: It was just a shout back to my childhood and

250
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:34,560
Speaker 9: I'll hang up and listen.

251
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:38,079
Speaker 2: Then all right, thank you, Brian. Yeah, I mean, defensive

252
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 2: tackle has been you know the well, stopping the run

253
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 2: is the issue, and defensive tackle is one where you

254
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 2: know it's it's one of those positions and you said

255
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 2: safety very similar. Tied end could be another one where

256
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 2: you don't see them drafted that highly. It's not considered

257
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,680
Speaker 2: one of these top tier position to go and get

258
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 2: but yet so you're not supposed to spend a lot

259
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 2: of resources on it, but yet at the same time,

260
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,319
Speaker 2: you still try to figure out how to make it better.

261
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 2: And that that's always been kind of that cat and

262
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 2: mouse type situation where you know, the Cowboys had that

263
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 2: issue at safety for a long time and maybe they

264
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,080
Speaker 2: have it right now still at tackle. And they went

265
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 2: and they did draft the first round pick and that

266
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:29,280
Speaker 2: hasn't panned out yet. Mazzie Smith hasn't really done much

267
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,680
Speaker 2: of anything. And you expect that out of your first

268
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:34,599
Speaker 2: round pick. You expect him to come right in, be

269
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:36,640
Speaker 2: ready to go, especially at a position like the defensive

270
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 2: tackle where they don't invest, you know, first round picks

271
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 2: very often. It's been thirty something years before they did it.

272
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 2: That guy that they picked was number one overall, and

273
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 2: Russell Maryland, he you know, I don't know if you

274
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 2: ever met the expectations of a number one pick. I

275
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 2: don't think he did. But he did make the Pro

276
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 2: Bowl and he was a good, solid player for good teams.

277
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,320
Speaker 2: But my point is is that they still need to

278
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,079
Speaker 2: figure out how to you know, how to get the

279
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 2: right pieces in there. And you know, I don't think

280
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 2: they were banking on Linval Joseph and you know, Jordan

281
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 2: Phillips to to save the day. They you know, plug

282
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,079
Speaker 2: the holes and and and and let's let's see how

283
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 2: they do that still. I mean, it's been it has

284
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 2: been one game where they they really just got out

285
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 2: physical then and mostly on the edge. That's what I

286
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 2: think they've got to figure out the most is how

287
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 2: to how to stop the run from the edges, because

288
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 2: they teams are going to continue to do that, you know,

289
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 2: but they have to be able to do that with

290
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 2: a capable back. You can't just say go get go,

291
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 2: get to the outside. Not everybody can do what Kamara does,

292
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 2: and and he is a he's a special back because

293
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 2: he can play inside and outside and he can take

294
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 2: a pass over the middle and go fifty yards to

295
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 2: the house. Not everyone has that running back. The Cowboys

296
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 2: certainly do not. And so you can't just you can't

297
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 2: just play the same way, you know. They they the

298
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 2: teams in the NBA never just saw somebody go up

299
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 2: against the bulls and go, you know what, let's just

300
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 2: let's just do that. Let's do what Jordan's doing, and

301
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 2: let's let's win because that's what works for them. Doesn't

302
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 2: work like that, obviously, and I think that, you know,

303
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,120
Speaker 2: but the Saints were very unique in the way that

304
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 2: they attacked them and you know, they look like a

305
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 2: good football team. But there's a lot of two and

306
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:20,720
Speaker 2: O teams that I saw. Just saw a list of

307
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 2: two and o teams that don't necessarily scare you. There's

308
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 2: some O and two teams that do as well. So

309
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 2: again my point is very early in the schedule, and yes,

310
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 2: Baltimore is one of those teams, those oh and two

311
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 2: teams that that would be scary. All right, let's go

312
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 2: to Steve in New York. Steve, how are you doing?

313
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 6: Hey?

314
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 4: Nick?

315
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 11: Great shows always Thanks. I'm gonna hit you with a

316
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 11: trivia before I go. Whoever the last caller was was

317
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 11: pretty much what I was gonna mention was the defensive interior.

318
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 2: Huh.

319
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:52,240
Speaker 11: You know, he can't expect you know, two games in that.

320
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 11: I don't want to call him cast offs, but you know,

321
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 11: two guys who've been around and you know them coming

322
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 11: in here and the second round guy and Ozzie Smith,

323
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 11: who we really at this point still don't know what

324
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 11: he's going to be to, you know, to plug them

325
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 11: in and expect you know, results. Listen, I did not

326
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 11: want to see what I saw last week. But you know, nonetheless,

327
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 11: it was eerily similar to the Packers game. I know

328
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 11: that's probably been said a hundred times, but you know,

329
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 11: the positive here is it's week two. They have a

330
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 11: lot of time to can it be fixed. I don't know,

331
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:28,720
Speaker 11: but they have time to do it. And I agree

332
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 11: with I think it was I don't know if Mike

333
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 11: has said it. I think it was a scheme thing.

334
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 11: I think, you know, effort they just if you're not

335
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 11: in the right place like that. I've never seen the

336
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 11: screen pass before in my life go that far for

337
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 11: a touchdown. I'm gonna say effortlessly, right, Yeah, I mean

338
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 11: that was crazy.

339
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it was crazy. And and from my

340
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 2: view in the press box, you know, there was there

341
00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 2: were some plays in some angles taken that I just

342
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:04,760
Speaker 2: I just still scratch my head. I don't understand what

343
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:09,560
Speaker 2: what they saw or didn't see and so and that

344
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 2: that could have been a fifteen yard play maybe maybe twenty,

345
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 2: and it was.

346
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 11: Fifty two a two weeks. You know, it's just put

347
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 11: it behind us and they I think they can get

348
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 11: this straightened out. Yeah, you got the Garrett Gilbert last

349
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 11: time pretty much. So that impressed me. Yeah remember that

350
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:29,640
Speaker 11: that trivia?

351
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 2: Oh yeah yeah, with.

352
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 11: I think with Ceedee Lamb only what Cowboy draft pick

353
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:43,600
Speaker 11: had the most one thousand yard receiving seasons.

354
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:48,400
Speaker 2: Is Cowboys draft Oh? Oh okay, see, you know what's

355
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 2: going on, all right, what Cowboy draft pick has the

356
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:53,400
Speaker 2: most one thousand yard seasons?

357
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 7: All right?

358
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 2: Because Michael Irvin was the first one that that come

359
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 2: to my mind. But you're not going to ask that.

360
00:17:58,600 --> 00:17:59,240
Speaker 11: No, But.

361
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, did he did? He did he play with Michael

362
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 2: Irvin for a year?

363
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 11: Yes, I mean, yeah, yeah, he did.

364
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 2: My My thought would be Jimmy Smith, you got it

365
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:20,639
Speaker 2: the second round pick ninety two, and and it just

366
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,120
Speaker 2: you know, he got hurt, he didn't play. I don't.

367
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 2: I don't know what the issue was. And he was

368
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 2: out of football for a year or two. I think

369
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,200
Speaker 2: he tried to go with Philly and then he got

370
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 2: picked up by the Jaguars and the Expansion Draft and

371
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,159
Speaker 2: then yep. And is he a Hall of Famer?

372
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 11: No, he's not. He's like the only one up there

373
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:38,440
Speaker 11: he has I don't think he is. No, he has

374
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 11: nine one thousand yard what did Michael eight? You know,

375
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,399
Speaker 11: I don't. Maybe Irvan had six? Yeah, seven tops. But

376
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 11: you know what's funny is that he never even caught

377
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 11: a pass for the Cowboys.

378
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:50,160
Speaker 2: You're right, he never did.

379
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,000
Speaker 11: He never, he never caught a pass. And I think

380
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 11: it was his his appendix or something happened where.

381
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:57,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was, it was and he was out of

382
00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 2: football too, so like it wasn't It wasn't one of

383
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 2: those things. I don't think where the Cowboys gave up

384
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:03,760
Speaker 2: on him. It was just no, no, no, it just yeah,

385
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:05,359
Speaker 2: it was a bad situation. But it was a good

386
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 2: draft pick obviously because he was he was a great player,

387
00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 2: and you wonder, you know, with him and Harper, you know,

388
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 2: they actually did it perfectly because Harper left in ninety

389
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:18,960
Speaker 2: four or at the end of ninety four, so they

390
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:22,399
Speaker 2: had it, they had it drafted just perfectly where he was,

391
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,680
Speaker 2: you know, would come in and about that third year

392
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 2: be ready to go. But yeah, that's a good draft pick, right.

393
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 2: I mean, that's a good trivia question because as soon

394
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:33,200
Speaker 2: as you said that, I was like, all right, it's

395
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,399
Speaker 2: gotta be something else here. All right, good stuff. You

Speaker 2: Good? How are you doing?

431
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:29,120
Speaker 14: I'm doing just fine.

432
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 5: Can't complain.

433
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 14: You'll notice all the time that I kind of don't

434
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:33,879
Speaker 14: call the first after a game. I want to keep

435
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 14: all that armchair general manager, angry energy inside so I

436
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 14: feel fine. I love to watch the fourth lay of

437
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:43,680
Speaker 14: games before I call. And what I noticed was nobody has.

438
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:44,160
Speaker 7: To figure it out.

439
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 14: In Week two, Team Switch.

440
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 5: Push lost last night. I loved it.

441
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,159
Speaker 14: And my question is this, because we keep seeing this

442
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:55,119
Speaker 14: come up. Is Mike McCarthy utilizing the weapons that we

443
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 14: have on offense properly. I'm seeing Deuce run to darkness.

444
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:01,840
Speaker 14: I'm saying Zee catch pitch passes and screens, and I'm

445
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 14: thinking Zeke doesn't have the speed anymore. Why are we

446
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,119
Speaker 14: forcing him to do things that he's not going to

447
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 14: be good at.

448
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'll hang up all right, you know, I

449
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 2: I appreciate that call. And I and I I'll say this,

450
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 2: and I've said this before. I I get what you're saying,

451
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 2: like it makes sense.

452
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 11: You know.

453
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:22,919
Speaker 2: Why is why are you running Duce Vaughan right up

454
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 2: the middle? And why are you throwing passes to to Zeke?

455
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:29,080
Speaker 2: That's not what they do. You would think it would

456
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 2: be flipped. But if you don't, if you don't if

457
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 2: the other one, if you don't do everything, then they'll

458
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:41,240
Speaker 2: they'll be on The Saints kind of snuffed everything out anyways.

459
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,679
Speaker 2: But I think that if if Duce got in the

460
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 2: game any and he always had always had runs to

461
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:50,560
Speaker 2: the outside or you know, then you know, and and

462
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:52,720
Speaker 2: the thing is is they know it's gonna it's gonna

463
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,480
Speaker 2: be a run because they know he's not gonna pass protect.

464
00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:56,199
Speaker 6: Uh.

465
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 2: So that's that's something the Cowboys have to do as well.

466
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 2: But if you just if you just say, had some

467
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,440
Speaker 2: kind of trick play with him, or at least something

468
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 2: out in the flat or a pitch or whatever, and

469
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:07,280
Speaker 2: every time Zeke was in it was going to be

470
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 2: a run. Then they would be on to that. So

471
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:11,960
Speaker 2: I think running backs have to do it all not

472
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 2: all the time, but at least keep them honest, if

473
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:19,879
Speaker 2: you will. But I mean nothing that they that was

474
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:23,880
Speaker 2: working in that game was working. I mean the Saints

475
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 2: just they were three steps ahead of them, and they

476
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 2: looked bigger, stronger, and faster and better and and and

477
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 2: they blew them out. And that's the thing, you know.

478
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 2: The Cowboys were trying to keep up offensively, but only

479
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:39,360
Speaker 2: with field goals. And so it just as since you're

480
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 2: from Savannah, Georgia and my guy Patrick Walker is from Savannah, Georgia,

481
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 2: I'll steal his line. When when you're getting three and

482
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:49,359
Speaker 2: they're getting seven, the math ain't mathing, is what Patrick

483
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,200
Speaker 2: would say. And I love that one. All right, Let's

484
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:55,280
Speaker 2: go to Paul. He's in upstate, New York. Paul, Hey,

485
00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 2: how you doing to Nick? I'm good man, first time calling.

486
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:03,159
Speaker 4: Yes, I am also a veteran. I really appreciate everything

487
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 4: you guys do for veterans to show you support.

488
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:06,480
Speaker 2: Sure.

489
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:12,160
Speaker 4: My question is, of all the rookies that played this weekend,

490
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,119
Speaker 4: which one do you think had the largest and the

491
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 4: smallest impact or the most positive and negative impact.

492
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,200
Speaker 2: On the game on the last game.

493
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:22,120
Speaker 15: Yeah, on this last game.

494
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 4: I tried to call in Friday. I was going to

495
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,320
Speaker 4: ask which one you thought would have the biggest impact?

496
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:27,880
Speaker 4: So now I want to know which one you think

497
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,879
Speaker 4: did or did had the the worst and the best

498
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 4: impact on the game. So like who had the worst game?

499
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 4: Who had the best?

500
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,040
Speaker 2: Well, you know, Paul, I say this all the time

501
00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:40,040
Speaker 2: when when someone calls in with a specific question, that

502
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,919
Speaker 2: means they have a specific answer as well. So I'm

503
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:44,639
Speaker 2: gonna throw back to you. I'm gonna throw back to

504
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 2: you tennis style and I'll love it back up to you.

505
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 2: What is your answer to that?

506
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 4: So I thought Cooper BB still played really well. I

507
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:57,880
Speaker 4: thought he probably played the best, especially between him and

508
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:01,400
Speaker 4: and got beat a few times, Right, But Cooper BB

509
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:03,360
Speaker 4: held up really well in the middle. We just couldn't

510
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:07,240
Speaker 4: get any push from the rest of the line. On

511
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:12,520
Speaker 4: the defense. I thought Leo struggled in his role, just

512
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 4: in the role that he was assigned to, especially when

513
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 4: you consider oversown performance last week.

514
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:23,200
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, those are those are good. I mean, I

515
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:27,960
Speaker 2: I think I think BB Boebe and Guidon's kind of

516
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 2: struggled a little bit. But if you have to give

517
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:34,919
Speaker 2: up the best of the rookies, probably probably Bebe And

518
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:42,120
Speaker 2: then you know, Carson wasn't great, Leah foul, Guidon Neeland

519
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:46,679
Speaker 2: was just kind of like, Okay, you know, Flinoyd did nothing.

520
00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:51,199
Speaker 2: He was inactive. It's not fair, but he may not

521
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,560
Speaker 2: be inactive next week, you know. I mean, I mean,

522
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 2: I think that's something keep an eye on. It's not

523
00:25:57,720 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 2: illegal to fall down in the middle of a route,

524
00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:02,439
Speaker 2: so I mean Aalen Brooks, it happened. But but I

525
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 2: also think that Flinoy might give you a little bit more. Anyways,

526
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,119
Speaker 2: if he can show that he's he can, you know,

527
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 2: pick up the slack on special teams. It maybe he's

528
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,200
Speaker 2: a he's a guy that could that that would come

529
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:16,919
Speaker 2: in here and be active for a game. But to

530
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,159
Speaker 2: answer your question, I think I think you have it

531
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 2: right with Bebe. I would I would say Carson and Leah,

532
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 2: fall and Geiten all all had their moments of struggle

533
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 2: in the game as well. So all right, let's go

534
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:33,200
Speaker 2: to uh Chuck d in Bridge City, Texas.

535
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:37,840
Speaker 8: Hey, Nick, Hey, Chuck, Hey, this situation with the running

536
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,240
Speaker 8: backs reminds me of the year we let the Marco

537
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,919
Speaker 8: Maury go and we thought Joseph Randall would be the answer.

538
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:49,119
Speaker 2: Well, and I hope so I hope that's the answer.

539
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,880
Speaker 2: I mean, I really hope that that is what happens.

540
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:55,440
Speaker 2: Because if you remember a guy that came in rush

541
00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:59,160
Speaker 2: for eleven hundred yards, So if they're if there's eleven

542
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:02,240
Speaker 2: hundred yard Russier or somewhere, you know, waiting in the wings,

543
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 2: that maybe it's a Dalvin Cook. I'm all for that. Now,

544
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:07,960
Speaker 2: I'm not I'm not all for the four different quarterbacks

545
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,480
Speaker 2: that played that year. I'd like to just keep it

546
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 2: at one. But but just just for your point, I

547
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:18,199
Speaker 2: think you're right they thought one way. This reminds me

548
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:20,560
Speaker 2: a little bit more of the twenty eighteen season where

549
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 2: they thought they could go receiver by committee and that

550
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 2: didn't work. They ended up trading for Amari Cooper. I'm

551
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 2: not saying that what happened, but you know so.

552
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:30,879
Speaker 8: Far, Yeah, that's what I was. That's what I was

553
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 8: gonna bring up. Did you see them? Could you see them?

554
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 8: For McCarthy's you know, giving him a good chance, don't

555
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 8: fit in the first second and get one of these

556
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:44,160
Speaker 8: running backs that for a team. Let's just say the Panthers.

557
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,199
Speaker 8: You know they are not going to do good and

558
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:46,960
Speaker 8: they decide.

559
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:47,879
Speaker 7: They're gonna let go somebody.

560
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:49,880
Speaker 8: Could you see us doing something like.

561
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:56,359
Speaker 2: That without this is me not knowing anything, but I

562
00:27:56,840 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 2: would say yes, I could see that. I could see

563
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,160
Speaker 2: the first things First, I think you need to look

564
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:07,200
Speaker 2: at all your options you have here, and Dalvin Cook

565
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 2: would make sense. I mean, if he's ready, if he's

566
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:14,639
Speaker 2: ready to go now now, McCarthy said on Monday, he

567
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 2: said that that it's really more terminology is what he

568
00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,359
Speaker 2: needs to kind of pick up. And and on one hand,

569
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 2: you know running backs, that's why you see rookies come

570
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:26,199
Speaker 2: in the league and do well because they kind of

571
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 2: know what they're need to do. Get the ball, see

572
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,719
Speaker 2: the whole run. But you know, if you don't if

573
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:32,919
Speaker 2: you don't know the blitz pick up and things like that,

574
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:37,480
Speaker 2: your quarterback could also be you know, getting up looking

575
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:39,239
Speaker 2: at his ear hole, you know, I mean that kind

576
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 2: of stuff, and you don't want that. And we've seen

577
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 2: a running back. I've seen a running back here that

578
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 2: missed his assignment and ended the Cowboys season. Back in

579
00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 2: twenty ten when Romo got hurt, so it could happen,

580
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 2: and it's a big part of it. And that's why

581
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 2: Zeke has some more value than people think. But I

582
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:57,680
Speaker 2: could see I could see them, you know, trying to

583
00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 2: find some answers all year long running back. You know,

584
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:02,880
Speaker 2: I'm not going to get into names of other teams

585
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 2: that would be tampering, but but you guys can do that.

586
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:07,280
Speaker 2: You can look on the riding on the wall and

587
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:08,960
Speaker 2: then you did. You picked a team that has a

588
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 2: couple of running backs there and drafted a guy that

589
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 2: should be coming back, so you know, and they might

590
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,720
Speaker 2: be open to doing something like that. But but that's

591
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 2: that's what you got to look at before the trade deadline.

592
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 2: But I think before that you got to, you know,

593
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,479
Speaker 2: let's let a few more games play out. See what

594
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,560
Speaker 2: happens here. See if you can get into some games

595
00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 2: where the Cowboys can have the lead and run the

596
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:33,200
Speaker 2: ball a little bit better than they did in Cleveland

597
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:34,800
Speaker 2: and a lot better than they did against the Saints,

598
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:36,720
Speaker 2: and we'll see what kind of problem we really have.

599
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,239
Speaker 2: But but you got you know, last week, I was like,

600
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,480
Speaker 2: I'm not sure. This week, I you guys are onto something,

601
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 2: because it really we haven't seen anything in two games.

602
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 2: They ranked twenty fifth in the league right now, averaging

603
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 2: eighty five yards a game. You know that that's obviously

604
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 2: not going to get it cut. That's not going to

605
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:52,920
Speaker 2: cut it. Let's go to Josh in Chicago.

606
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:57,120
Speaker 16: Hey, how's it going good? How are you not bad?

607
00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 2: Hey?

608
00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,720
Speaker 16: So I having a little trouble with the feet today

609
00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 16: might on my end, so I'm repetitive. I'm sorry, but

610
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 16: talking running back trade stuff, I know you can't comment.

611
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 16: You know, I know Carolina's got a guy who's sitting

612
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 16: out there waiting to come back from injury that we

613
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:12,480
Speaker 16: tried to get in the draft but couldn't get to.

614
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,320
Speaker 16: So he might be an option in my eyes.

615
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 2: But what I listen, I'll say this, I don't think

616
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 2: that would be the option for Carolina. Again, I think

617
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 2: it would be the other two guys that they've got

618
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 2: that are you know that ones bounced around again. I'm

619
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 2: not getting into all that, but I don't think they

620
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:32,960
Speaker 2: would trade their draft pick. I think they would trade

621
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 2: some progress stoppers.

622
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:39,240
Speaker 16: If you will, you're probably right. And what I think, though,

623
00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 16: is when you look at some of the teams and

624
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 16: really what New Orleans did with Taysom Hill. I really

625
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 16: think that some of the answer might be Hunter Lifkey

626
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 16: and getting him more involved in the passing game and

627
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 16: running game, because you know, he's an X factor, he's

628
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,040
Speaker 16: a weapon, he's fast, he's big, you know. I think

629
00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:56,840
Speaker 16: they just got to get him involved more and that

630
00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 16: would help the run game and the passing game more.

631
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:00,880
Speaker 16: Just I want to hear your thoughts. Sorry, I got there,

632
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 16: all right.

633
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 2: Thank you. You know before there's other options here, you know,

634
00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 2: you you first things first is you you get it

635
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 2: blocked up front. I mean, you make sure the guys

636
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:12,680
Speaker 2: up front are doing what they need to do, and

637
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,120
Speaker 2: I think they'll continue to get better. Remember there's two

638
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:15,920
Speaker 2: rookies up there.

639
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 7: Uh.

640
00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:18,760
Speaker 2: And then and then you figure out the next next

641
00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 2: thing is who are our best runners here? Who who

642
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,040
Speaker 2: can see the hole, who's hitting the hole the best,

643
00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,720
Speaker 2: who's got the most juice, all of those things? Who

644
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 2: are our best options here on this team to run

645
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 2: the football? Then I think a third part before you

646
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 2: start looking on the outside, is can we do more

647
00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 2: in the running game? Is annoyed. As annoying as it

648
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:42,200
Speaker 2: is to hear in the stadium, I don't care if

649
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 2: every single play if the referee says so and so

650
00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:49,880
Speaker 2: has reported eligible, I don't care as long as the reports,

651
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 2: you know, because if he doesn't report, then you could

652
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:53,800
Speaker 2: throw a touchdown pass and you can lose a game

653
00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 2: like that. But you got to report. That's part of it.

654
00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,720
Speaker 2: My point to that is, give me some more big

655
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:02,480
Speaker 2: guys in here. Is there a swing tackle? Could Austoin

656
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:05,360
Speaker 2: Richards as a swing tax? Could could he help? Could

657
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:09,840
Speaker 2: could a defensive lineman. Could Amasi Smith? Somebody like that?

658
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 2: Be a lead full back type guy. I've seen Jay

659
00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 2: Rytliffe do that for the for the Cowboys before. He

660
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,560
Speaker 2: was kind of in every every down player. Somebody with

661
00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 2: some size, somebody that can help as as a tackle

662
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 2: eligible to you know, unbalanced line that can just provide

663
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 2: a little bit more push. There's other ways to do this,

664
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 2: and and and I think we're not there yet on

665
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 2: some of these. You know, I don't know if it's

666
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,520
Speaker 2: desperate yet, but there's other things to do before you

667
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:40,160
Speaker 2: go and trade for someone else. So maybe the Cowboys

668
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:42,680
Speaker 2: can do some of those things. All right, We're gonna

669

704
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:33,719
Speaker 2: How are you?

705
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 7: I've been better man, It's gonna be a long week

706
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:40,040
Speaker 7: for me. I'm from Louisiana and I talked my talk

707
00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:43,319
Speaker 7: to my buddies back home, so I got to face the.

708
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:47,760
Speaker 2: Well, you've been talking talking a bunch of trash.

709
00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:51,600
Speaker 7: Before they got death. I definitely was like, more so

710
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 7: than what's out of my personality? Yeah, because they started

711
00:34:56,040 --> 00:35:01,279
Speaker 7: it to be honest with you. But anyway, anyway, my

712
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 7: problem with the game, looking back at the film, I

713
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 7: didn't want to call yesterday because it would have been

714
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:09,600
Speaker 7: out of emotion. I'm sure you get plenty of those

715
00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,120
Speaker 7: calls in the next few days, but I saw a

716
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:14,440
Speaker 7: lot of lack of effort on defense. I feel like,

717
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,279
Speaker 7: I feel like when our team gets hitting the mouth,

718
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 7: they don't respond. And I mean hopefully, since this is

719
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:25,359
Speaker 7: week two, they have time for zimmer to to try

720
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:29,000
Speaker 7: to coach them up. But you can't really coach effort. Yeah,

721
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 7: my biggest concern going forward is when CD gets schemed

722
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,320
Speaker 7: to be shut down, which you can never totally scheme

723
00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:38,759
Speaker 7: him to be shut down. But you know, when they

724
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 7: focus on CD and they focus on Michael, who else

725
00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:44,200
Speaker 7: is going to step up? I saw on the Kamara

726
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:47,360
Speaker 7: screen where he scored a touchdown, the only player running

727
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:50,320
Speaker 7: full speed, in my opinion, was d Law. I feel

728
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:51,640
Speaker 7: like if we could just get a bunch of d

729
00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:54,319
Speaker 7: Laws on the field, that would be great. Yeah, Like,

730
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:57,719
Speaker 7: where's the effort at you know, there's the where's the

731
00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:02,040
Speaker 7: pride in your home? You know, it's easier said than done.

732
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 7: I know they have been getting ran on and this

733
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:07,360
Speaker 7: and that, but this is what they get paid for.

734
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:12,040
Speaker 7: This is you know, it's just disappointed. Man, We're all disappointed.

735
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:15,239
Speaker 7: But I'm still hopeful going forward. I'm going to the

736
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:17,840
Speaker 7: game next week, so I'm hoping not for a repeat

737
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:21,279
Speaker 7: performance because Baltimore is known to be pretty physical. Just

738
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:24,759
Speaker 7: because they're only two doesn't mean, you know, everybody knows

739
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:26,760
Speaker 7: this game is serious. They're going to come in desperate,

740
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:29,319
Speaker 7: and I just hope, you know, we don't have a

741
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:33,680
Speaker 7: repeat of this. Surely not. Yeah, yeah, But anyway, I'll

742
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:36,799
Speaker 7: get off of here. And I guess my question was

743
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:40,200
Speaker 7: really about the CD and like one every day scheme

744
00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:42,759
Speaker 7: for them. Yeah, you know, who's going to step up?

745
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:45,000
Speaker 7: And what do you think about that? But I appreciate

746
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:45,759
Speaker 7: it all right.

747
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:49,279
Speaker 2: Well, on offense, you know, that's why you have to

748
00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:51,520
Speaker 2: run the football. You know, you've got to be able

749
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:53,840
Speaker 2: to be balanced, got to be able to win other ways.

750
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,560
Speaker 2: And you know, I thought Brandon Cooks was ready to

751
00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:59,839
Speaker 2: kind of take that that role. And you know, I'm

752
00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:02,480
Speaker 2: not saying that he can't. I mean, he's done it.

753
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:05,359
Speaker 2: The thing about Brandon, he's had four one thousand yard

754
00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:07,880
Speaker 2: seasons with four different teams. So he didn't do that

755
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,040
Speaker 2: last year, but he did catch eight touchdowns and so

756
00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 2: he was a factor and he can he will be

757
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:15,960
Speaker 2: a factor for this team. As well. I think Jake Ferguson.

758
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:19,080
Speaker 2: We saw the value there. A Scoomaker did an okay job,

759
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:21,239
Speaker 2: six catches on six targets, one of them a nice

760
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:24,800
Speaker 2: one handed catch, you know, But it's not the same

761
00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:27,879
Speaker 2: with him, you know. It's just he doesn't have the athleticism,

762
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:32,600
Speaker 2: the explosion, and so he's he's a good compliment when

763
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,879
Speaker 2: you're doing the two tight end set, but I think

764
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:38,920
Speaker 2: that he's not. I don't consider him like a weapon

765
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:41,759
Speaker 2: out there. And and and that's something that they certainly need.

766
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:44,000
Speaker 2: So those guys have to step up it on defense,

767
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:48,000
Speaker 2: you know. They they need they need rushers, they need

768
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:51,279
Speaker 2: playmakers there. Sam Williams injury really hurts them. I think

769
00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:53,480
Speaker 2: it hurts them more than we thought it would. And

770
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:57,280
Speaker 2: so they haven't really replaced that guy because he's got

771
00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:01,320
Speaker 2: some explosive ability to go and rush rush the quarterback,

772
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 2: and so they haven't found that yet. And and they

773
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:08,120
Speaker 2: you know, overshown maybe maybe there's a there's be a

774
00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 2: role for him more than what we've seen. I know

775
00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:12,799
Speaker 2: a lot of the fans are upset with with the

776
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:14,879
Speaker 2: scheme that didn't have him on the field as much,

777
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:16,719
Speaker 2: and so I would imagine You're going to see a

778
00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:19,359
Speaker 2: lot of him, uh in this next game as well.

779
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:22,480
Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Vinnie in New Jersey.

780
00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:24,759
Speaker 10: Hello, and Nick?

Speaker 11: First time calling?

785
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 8: Hey.

786
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:33,239
Speaker 10: Look, I've been following them since nineteen sixty five, and

787
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:36,359
Speaker 10: it's it's a pleasure talking to you because I I've

788
00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,320
Speaker 10: seen you on your shows and I hear you on WFA,

789
00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:42,920
Speaker 10: and I really respect the comments and the instact that

790
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:43,319
Speaker 10: you have.

791
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:44,080
Speaker 2: Thank you.

792
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:45,760
Speaker 15: Uh.

793
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:47,239
Speaker 10: Did Jimmy Jonmost listen to this?

794
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:54,360
Speaker 2: I hope not. No, kid, I don't know. No, I

795
00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:56,400
Speaker 2: would doubt it. I would doubt it.

796
00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:00,560
Speaker 10: The question I have, I mean I have a lot

797
00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:02,840
Speaker 10: of I mean, how lucky enough I've seen seven Super

798
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:06,520
Speaker 10: Bowls and five wins or whatever. Okay, so I've been

799
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:09,320
Speaker 10: lucky enough. But for the last thirty to thirty years,

800
00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:12,319
Speaker 10: I'm getting really pissed off now because I saw how

801
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:16,000
Speaker 10: things were run. I get it, the football has evolved

802
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:19,400
Speaker 10: over the years, But why is it we're always behind

803
00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:23,319
Speaker 10: the eight ball? I mean, I understand, you know, and

804
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 10: I know everybody says Jerry Jones shouldn't be the GM.

805
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:26,839
Speaker 5: I get it.

806
00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:28,840
Speaker 10: Thirty years you'd be he would have been by it

807
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 10: ten times for another team. But why, I mean, you

808
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:36,879
Speaker 10: have a running back by committee. Now everybody keeps talking

809
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:40,360
Speaker 10: about the defense, but if you're running the ball because

810
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:43,560
Speaker 10: the tea face off the field, number one, number two,

811
00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 10: running the ball by committee, it's not gonna help you.

812
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:50,319
Speaker 10: I mean, we we saw how will when when we

813
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:54,759
Speaker 10: had receivers by a committee. Don't they learn from that?

814
00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:57,440
Speaker 10: I mean remember when we used it when we got

815
00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:01,440
Speaker 10: to Mari Cooper. Yeah, we had day It was so

816
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,080
Speaker 10: hell bent on and I know it was a different coach,

817
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,760
Speaker 10: but the general manager had to sign off on him

818
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:11,719
Speaker 10: to a degree. You saw how that worked and it

819
00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:15,600
Speaker 10: and it really hurts you then because then they had

820
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:17,719
Speaker 10: to get Then they got rid of Amari Cooper. But

821
00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:20,759
Speaker 10: for the first six or seven games, you had no

822
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:24,279
Speaker 10: offensive output that and it's the same thing that's gonna

823
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:28,560
Speaker 10: happen here. I know you had Ferguson out, but jesus,

824
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:31,480
Speaker 10: if you don't run the ball. You got Ziku I

825
00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:34,120
Speaker 10: you know, admire and everything, but he's passed his prime.

826
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:37,839
Speaker 10: You got Dalvin Cook, who, to be honest with you,

827
00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:46,080
Speaker 10: I don't I don't think Jones knows how well Cooked

828
00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:48,800
Speaker 10: would play, and I think Jones is the one that

829
00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:54,080
Speaker 10: probably UH pushed to get Dalvin Cook. But you have

830
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:56,600
Speaker 10: to go get somebody. Now, you got Kareem Hunt that's

831
00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:59,920
Speaker 10: got more tread on the tires than Cook or l

832
00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:03,360
Speaker 10: You gotta go by one or two backs periods. You

833
00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:06,920
Speaker 10: go by running backs by committee. You don't hold on

834
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 10: to the ball. You don't hold on to the ball,

835
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:12,640
Speaker 10: and the defense gets beat, gets beat like a drum

836
00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:17,920
Speaker 10: because they're playing Shanahan's offense. And that's another issue. You

837
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:21,000
Speaker 10: would think after the last three four years, they came

838
00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:23,439
Speaker 10: up with a plan with that, since that was their

839
00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:26,799
Speaker 10: main competitor to get to the Super Bowl, and they

840
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:27,799
Speaker 10: still haven't done it.

841
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:31,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, well thanks for the call of Annie.

842
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:34,480
Speaker 2: You know, I'll say this about running back by committee,

843
00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:38,800
Speaker 2: receiver by committee, quarterback by committee, that's a nice term

844
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:43,360
Speaker 2: when in the reality of it is, there's not somebody

845
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:46,399
Speaker 2: that we absolutely trust to be the lead guy. That's

846
00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:48,560
Speaker 2: what it is. That's what the team, that's that's how

847
00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 2: it kind of evolves. It's not that they wake up

848
00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:54,279
Speaker 2: in the middle of the spring and say, you know what,

849
00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:57,920
Speaker 2: forget having like a really stud workhorse back, Let's get

850
00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:00,640
Speaker 2: a bunch of other backs and let's just do a committee.

851
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:03,480
Speaker 2: You've all heard the term, you know, or we have

852
00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:06,320
Speaker 2: two quarterbacks, we have three quarterbacks. If you have two quarterbacks,

853
00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:09,960
Speaker 2: you have zero. Okay, Now, running back it's a little

854
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:13,120
Speaker 2: different because you do have some you want more runners

855
00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:17,000
Speaker 2: in there. But everybody wants that stud running back. Everybody

856
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:20,040
Speaker 2: wants to have a difference maker, and you don't have it.

857
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:22,719
Speaker 2: Then the nice way to say it is is we

858
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:26,560
Speaker 2: have a committee. Because what you don't realize is is

859
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:30,320
Speaker 2: there's there's a you know, there's five or six seven

860
00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:34,000
Speaker 2: scouts that that are involved in the process here, and

861
00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:37,160
Speaker 2: then there's coaches and offensive coordinator and the head coach

862
00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:41,200
Speaker 2: and then the GM and all that, and they probably

863
00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:43,960
Speaker 2: have a different opinion. If you went to let's say ten,

864
00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:46,719
Speaker 2: ten to eleven people in that group and say who's

865
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 2: what running back gives us the best chance, you're probably

866
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:53,439
Speaker 2: gonna get three, maybe four answers, uh, different answers. That's

867
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:56,319
Speaker 2: where the committee is. That's why it's they're they're not

868
00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:58,759
Speaker 2: really set on who who's going to be the best

869
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:02,120
Speaker 2: option here. It's not like they went into this going

870
00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:04,680
Speaker 2: this is what we want to do. Now could they

871
00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 2: have gone and paid more money than than Philly did

872
00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:12,160
Speaker 2: for for Barkley or for Baltimore did for Henry. Yes,

873
00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:14,279
Speaker 2: they could have done that. They could have done that,

874
00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:17,600
Speaker 2: and you know, I mean they it would have been

875
00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:20,920
Speaker 2: tough with their cap situation or whatever, but you know

876
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:23,040
Speaker 2: they you could have gone into this. You could have

877
00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:25,719
Speaker 2: drafted higher. You could have drafted a running back at all,

878
00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:28,759
Speaker 2: you know, and drafted high. See, you could have done

879
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:32,520
Speaker 2: different options here. But I just don't think team. I

880
00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:36,000
Speaker 2: think teams get backed into the committee more than they

881
00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 2: say that's what we want to do. All right, let's

882
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:44,080
Speaker 2: go one more here, Let's go Michael and Bowling Green, Kentucky.

883
00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:47,960
Speaker 15: I'm still optimistic. I believe where you got four more

884
00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:53,080
Speaker 15: losses in this and that's it. So five losses. I

885
00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:57,960
Speaker 15: believe we're not you know, we're good. Hey, the Eagles

886
00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:00,520
Speaker 15: in the forty nine ers say both loss too, So

887
00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:03,960
Speaker 15: it's still all good. I mean, there's a long way

888
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:05,480
Speaker 15: to go, it's all I got.

889
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:08,359
Speaker 2: All right, Michael, appreciate that you're right about the long

890
00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:11,360
Speaker 2: way to go. I mean, I think we've learned our lesson,

891
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:13,359
Speaker 2: or we should have learned the lesson on saying well,

892
00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:17,680
Speaker 2: we've got five losses left. I mean, was did anyone

893
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:20,120
Speaker 2: have the Saints as a loss? And if they did,

894
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:23,879
Speaker 2: did they have a minus twenty five? I mean, it's

895
00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:29,520
Speaker 2: just early to know who's what, who's good? I mean,

896
00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:32,839
Speaker 2: who's a really good team and who isn't. I mean,

897
00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:38,279
Speaker 2: the Giants look like they're going to struggle, and you know,

898
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:42,400
Speaker 2: Washington is Washington. I haven't I don't know if they

899
00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:45,160
Speaker 2: you know, turned the corner. Get they're playing a rookie quarterback.

900
00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:46,759
Speaker 2: You don't play them till later in the year, So

901
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:49,640
Speaker 2: rookie quarterback might be a lot better by then. But

902
00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:53,200
Speaker 2: it's just it's hard to know who is what I mean,

903
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:56,920
Speaker 2: Look at San Francisco, you know you got them in

904
00:44:56,960 --> 00:45:02,960
Speaker 2: a few weeks. Deebo's hurt, McCaffrey hurt. You just know

905
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:05,400
Speaker 2: they're both coming back before the Cowboys game. I mean,

906
00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:08,800
Speaker 2: they just will. I mean, that's just that's a given.

907
00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:11,440
Speaker 2: You know that. But you know they're they're banged up

908
00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:16,400
Speaker 2: right now. The Eagles, you know, they're they you know,

909
00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:18,319
Speaker 2: they they decided not to try to win the game

910
00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:20,400
Speaker 2: the other day, you know, and and just uh and

911
00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:24,760
Speaker 2: got cute which offensive coordinator that we've seen before, Uh

912
00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:26,560
Speaker 2: do that, And I don't know whose call that was

913
00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:28,240
Speaker 2: at the end of the game to throw the ball

914
00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:31,759
Speaker 2: when it's third and three and uh and throw it

915
00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:34,080
Speaker 2: in the flat to to to Barkley and they they

916
00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:36,759
Speaker 2: had had success on that and they scored. But you know,

917
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:41,480
Speaker 2: it's We've seen it twice with the Cowboys last season,

918
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:46,440
Speaker 2: two games Seattle and Detroit, very similar situations where a

919
00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:50,279
Speaker 2: first down will win the game, and and and a

920
00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:53,759
Speaker 2: touchdown or whatever wins it and the game's over. Or

921
00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:56,080
Speaker 2: you can try to run it when there's no timeouts

922
00:45:56,080 --> 00:45:58,880
Speaker 2: for the other team and you can basically just wipe

923
00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:02,600
Speaker 2: the clock, cut it in half, take forty seconds off

924
00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:05,000
Speaker 2: the clock, and put them in a really bad situation.

925
00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:08,200
Speaker 2: We saw McCarthy twice throw the ball and throw incomplete

926
00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:10,800
Speaker 2: and really almost lost the game because of it. And

927
00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:13,560
Speaker 2: last night or you know, Monday night, the Philly did

928
00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:17,719
Speaker 2: the same thing. Philly lost the game by trying to

929
00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:20,920
Speaker 2: get cute. When I'm running Barkley, he probably gets the

930
00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:23,279
Speaker 2: first down. If he doesn't, they're getting close enough to

931
00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:25,759
Speaker 2: push it in on fourth down. And if you don't

932
00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:28,759
Speaker 2: make it there, you give them fifty five seconds back

933
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:30,640
Speaker 2: on their own ten yard line to try to go

934
00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:33,080
Speaker 2: get a field goal with no timeouts. That's way better

935
00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:36,240
Speaker 2: than the thirty five yard line with a minute forty

936
00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:41,600
Speaker 2: It's just a it's a mismanagement of the clock, and

937
00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:44,880
Speaker 2: it's kind of an arrogance, you know that he willt's go,

938
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:47,680
Speaker 2: let's go win this game. I say it thousand times.

939
00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:50,000
Speaker 2: I'll argue with anyone that wants to argue with me

940
00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:54,239
Speaker 2: about the difference between playing to win and playing not

941
00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:57,520
Speaker 2: to lose. And they were trying to play to win

942
00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:00,600
Speaker 2: and win this game right then and there. And if

943
00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:03,040
Speaker 2: you play it smart, play the percentages and play not

944
00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:06,120
Speaker 2: to lose, you don't lose. Because playing to win and

945
00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:08,840
Speaker 2: playing not to lose ends up the exact same way

946
00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:12,120
Speaker 2: to me. And it's just it doesn't matter what the

947
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:14,759
Speaker 2: level of aggressiveness is. But that's okay, we got we

948
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,640
Speaker 2: got one more caller. That's just my little rant right there.

949
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:21,200
Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Randy in Texas, Kanada's brother.

950
00:47:21,360 --> 00:47:24,200
Speaker 5: I don't want to have a little ram myself. I

951
00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:26,319
Speaker 5: did not get to listen today, so I don't know.

952
00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:28,400
Speaker 5: I hope I'm not going to cover the same exact thing.

953
00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:32,319
Speaker 5: But one week two Dallas Cowboy MVP and goes to

954
00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:40,239
Speaker 5: Kirk Cousins two. I disagree with vond being set down

955
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:43,920
Speaker 5: or cut or release for other running backs because it's

956
00:47:44,640 --> 00:47:46,960
Speaker 5: I don't think it's on him. I think it is

957
00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:48,200
Speaker 5: the way they're scheming him.

958
00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:48,960
Speaker 8: Yeah.

959
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:51,000
Speaker 5: I promise you, if you put that guy on a

960
00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:54,600
Speaker 5: forty nine er or the Miami or somebody with that

961
00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:58,120
Speaker 5: type of a creative play calling, they will get him

962
00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:01,359
Speaker 5: into open space. You cannot run and that little guy

963
00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:03,920
Speaker 5: up the middle with people that are the south of

964
00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:07,440
Speaker 5: dump trucks. You know it just it won't work. And

965
00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:10,880
Speaker 5: my third thing to talk about and I'll hurd up

966
00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:14,640
Speaker 5: can get off in what frustrates me about Dallas and

967
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:17,799
Speaker 5: it goes back to last year. But what happened this

968
00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:22,319
Speaker 5: weekend was we don't just lose with a battle like

969
00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:25,840
Speaker 5: where it's a one or two point loss and they're like, okay,

970
00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:28,240
Speaker 5: chalk it up to your guys, just better in mind.

971
00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:31,360
Speaker 5: We fought. We go the next week, we get smoked

972
00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:36,480
Speaker 5: and we get what it was like. We teach people

973
00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:39,560
Speaker 5: how to beat us, like we are giving you the

974
00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:42,200
Speaker 5: game plan on exactly how to beat us, and then

975
00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:44,040
Speaker 5: it's going to take us the next five or six

976
00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:48,440
Speaker 5: weeks of everybody copycatting and doing the same thing that

977
00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:50,600
Speaker 5: they did to us for us to get out of

978
00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:53,279
Speaker 5: that rut. That's what they're doing to it. That's what

979
00:48:53,360 --> 00:48:55,879
Speaker 5: happened last year with the Cardinals game when they ran

980
00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:58,640
Speaker 5: all over us and then you know it took us.

981
00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:01,279
Speaker 5: Of course, we got back on a winning streak. But

982
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:04,839
Speaker 5: like we give them the blueprint on how to beat us.

983
00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:08,120
Speaker 5: It's not just a hard fought law, it's a blueprint

984
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:11,960
Speaker 5: on this is what we're terrible at. Now get after it.

985
00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:14,000
Speaker 5: And That's where I'm at with it.

986
00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:16,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I hear your point, Randy, And thanks thanks

987
00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:17,319
Speaker 2: for the call.

988
00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:18,120
Speaker 9: Uh.

989
00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:21,359
Speaker 2: Like I said before, though, I mean, what if what

990
00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:25,799
Speaker 2: you know the blueprint, the blueprint to beat Baltimore? I mean,

991
00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:28,759
Speaker 2: did Kansas City give you that? I mean, you know, like, hey,

992
00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:33,520
Speaker 2: you know, let mahomes go and beat you that way?

993
00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:35,680
Speaker 2: Or run the ball? I mean, what if the blueprint,

994
00:49:36,239 --> 00:49:38,480
Speaker 2: what if the Cowboys are playing someone in the blueprint

995
00:49:38,600 --> 00:49:41,560
Speaker 2: is run the ball. Just run the ball all the time,

996
00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:43,920
Speaker 2: just run it at them all the time. Well, the

997
00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:46,800
Speaker 2: Cowboys are like, well, that's not what we do the best,

998
00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:49,359
Speaker 2: that's not what we're great, at that's not what's going

999
00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:52,200
Speaker 2: to help us. So you can say that we're telling

1000
00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:55,080
Speaker 2: teams how to do that. And last year, Okay, Arizona

1001
00:49:55,120 --> 00:49:58,879
Speaker 2: did it. Yeah, congratulations, Arizona got you know the two

1002
00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:01,480
Speaker 2: hundred and twenty two yards, that's the blueprint. Do that,

1003
00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:04,560
Speaker 2: that's the blueprint. Well they only lost four more games,

1004
00:50:04,800 --> 00:50:07,120
Speaker 2: So I mean, what, how do you how do you say,

1005
00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:09,680
Speaker 2: well that that's exactly how to do it. This is again,

1006
00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:12,799
Speaker 2: it's not this is not Montel Jordan, this isn't this

1007
00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:15,320
Speaker 2: is how we do it. You can't play that way.

1008
00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:18,280
Speaker 2: It sounds good, but not everybody can play the same style.

1009
00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:20,080
Speaker 2: Because if the Cowboys could just play that way, they

1010
00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:22,399
Speaker 2: would never lose. Just run the ball, but they they're

1011
00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:26,239
Speaker 2: not built that way. So yes, yes, hit the edges.

1012
00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:28,080
Speaker 2: If you have a guy like Kamara and have a

1013
00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:31,200
Speaker 2: deep balls and then you know out physical everyone, that's

1014
00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:33,280
Speaker 2: the blueprint to do it. But I'm not saying everyone

1015
00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:36,520
Speaker 2: can do it that same way. All right, guys, appreciate that.

1016
00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:39,360
Speaker 2: It's been a fun, fun time talking to you guys.

1017
00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:43,680
Speaker 2: This week, we're gonna keep eyes forward to Baltimore as

1018
00:50:43,680 --> 00:50:46,399
Speaker 2: the Cowboys get ready for the Ravens. For Chris Beam.

1019
00:50:46,480 --> 00:50:48,560
Speaker 2: I'm Nick Eatman. We will see you next time on

1020
00:50:48,680 --> 00:50:49,960
Speaker 2: Cowboys storyline.
