1 00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:03,520 Speaker 1: The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:05,359 Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. 3 00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:15,280 Speaker 2: Cowboys. This is these Cowboys storylines with Nick Eatman. 4 00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 3: What is up? It's time for Cowboys storyline. It is Thursday, 5 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 3: October the twelfth, right, Yeah, days were all messed up 6 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:29,640 Speaker 3: a little bit when in terms of Monday night game 7 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 3: kind of it kind of jacks up with your schedule 8 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 3: a little bit. Though. I know the Cowboys are playing 9 00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 3: the Chargers on Monday night. This game can't get here 10 00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:41,879 Speaker 3: soon enough, at least from our standpoint. Of course, the players, 11 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 3: the team coaches probably like to have that little extra 12 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 3: time to prepare, and Lord knows they need it. I mean, 13 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,560 Speaker 3: they're they're facing a Chargers team that's sitting there that 14 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 3: they're going to have about as long as you can 15 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 3: have between games that they had the bye week last 16 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 3: week and then that Monday night game, so they'll be 17 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 3: rested and ready. Of course, they're getting just about everybody back, 18 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 3: the guys that have been hurt for them. I think 19 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:10,200 Speaker 3: Austin Eckler, Joey Bosa, Derwin James. I feel like all 20 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 3: of those guys are returning. So cool. It'll be fun 21 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 3: for the Cowboys to face them. Of course, this is 22 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 3: like I've said before, I think the biggest game of 23 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 3: the season right now, this one right here. He shouldn't 24 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 3: come this early, but I think so. I think you're 25 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 3: at that fork in the road where the team you 26 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 3: want to be, the season you want to have, is 27 00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 3: still there, and even if you lose, obviously three and 28 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 3: three would be you know, you can turn things around 29 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 3: from that. It's happened before. But I definitely think though, 30 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 3: from the psyche of this team going into the bye week, 31 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 3: with the fact that your offense is struggling and you've 32 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 3: got the guy that was running this offense now over 33 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 3: here with the Chargers, he's calling plays for them, I 34 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 3: think it'll be a very, very tough loss if the 35 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 3: Cowboys can't come up with a win. But you know, 36 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 3: we'll see how they get there. It should be a 37 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 3: lot of fun. All right, Let's go to uh the 38 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 3: first caller here. You guys know how to do this 39 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 3: that way eight eight, five, five to seven. That is 40 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 3: the phone line.

I got three questions for you, all right? 50 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:42,519 Speaker 4: So my first one is, so do you think uh 51 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 4: the Cowboys in general? 52 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:46,359 Speaker 5: Uh? 53 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 4: I want to say, I do you see them getting 54 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,799 Speaker 4: like another like, you know, picking up somebody another person, 55 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 4: like creating just any position in general? Like you think 56 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 4: we still need something, some type of help anywhere possibly, 57 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 4: you know, in general. And my second question is. 58 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 6: Do you feel like. 59 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 4: The Cowboys need some type of you know, change like 60 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 4: coaching far as far as this the the coordinator or something. 61 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 4: I'm just asking opinion on that. Do you think that, 62 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 4: you know, maybe because this is the first time I 63 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,679 Speaker 4: ever seen, you know, them not be able to get 64 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:33,239 Speaker 4: nothing really in the red zone in a long time. 65 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 4: I ain't gonna see this in a long time. But 66 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 4: that's that's my second question. And third question is do 67 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 4: you think the Cowboys I started to miss their former 68 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 4: number one receiver? And I'm gonna hang. 69 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 3: Up a listener, Okay, I guess you're referring to it, 70 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 3: Mark Cooper. I mean, I guess that's what is that 71 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 3: you're talking about, Mark Cooper. Yeah, okay, all right, I 72 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 3: appreciate that. Thanks, thank you for the call and the questions. 73 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 3: Let's just start down the line. I mean, do they 74 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 3: need to add a player? I mean, if it makes sense. 75 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 3: I mean I'm always I don't mean to sound like 76 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 3: that's what Steven Jones would That's how he would answer that. 77 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 3: You know, we're always looking, you know, talent acquisition three 78 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 3: hundred and sixty five days a year, you know, I yes, 79 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 3: I mean all that makes sense, but it has to 80 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 3: and since you mentioned Demari Cooper, it has to be 81 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,720 Speaker 3: a move like that where you know, if you're going 82 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 3: to add a player, you're going to have to give 83 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,840 Speaker 3: up some draft capital probably or players on your own team. 84 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 3: But it needs to be somebody that that I think 85 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 3: could not only help immediately, but probably help down the 86 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 3: road as well. So you know, yeah, I mean, you 87 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 3: can't sit here and talk about other players on other teams. 88 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 3: I mean what positions. I mean, it would need to 89 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 3: be somebody that could come right in and help them. 90 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 3: I could see it being a cornerback. I could see 91 00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 3: it being you know, I don't really want to say 92 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 3: a tight end. I don't know if a tight end 93 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 3: is going to help you immediately because of you know 94 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,359 Speaker 3: how how it takes a little bit of time to 95 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,720 Speaker 3: to get you know, acclimented to offense and all that. 96 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 3: You know, maybe running back, you know, I it'd have 97 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 3: to be somebody, you know, maybe with some power, but 98 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 3: it would just have to be somebody that makes sense 99 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 3: not only for this year, but down the road coaching changes, 100 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 3: you know, as far as like duties and stuff like that. Sure, 101 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 3: I could see them handling some things like that, probably 102 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,839 Speaker 3: more in house, but you know, at this point, yeah, 103 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 3: it's not too late and too early to to you know, 104 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 3: move some things around a little bit. And then as 105 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 3: far as Mari Cooper goes, I mean, no, no, you 106 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 3: I don't think so, because nobody asked that question last year. 107 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,359 Speaker 3: I mean, unleass year ceedee Lamb got to a level 108 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 3: that we haven't seen since really since I guess Dez Bryant, 109 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 3: maybe Michael Irvin. As far as like second team All Pro, 110 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:53,480 Speaker 3: I mean it was a pro bowler one hundred and 111 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 3: seven catches. We've never seen a receiver do that. So no, 112 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,359 Speaker 3: I don't think so. I think I think you're number 113 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 3: one receivers here in seed Lamb. They just got to 114 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 3: figure out how to get him the ball. I mean, 115 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 3: there's no doubt about it. So all right, let's go 116 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 3: to the next caller, Brian in Kansas City. Brian, what's up. 117 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 3: Good morningtod morning. How are you. 118 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,040 Speaker 5: I'm doing pretty good, man, I'm doing pretty good. Hey. 119 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 5: I know somebody asked this. I don't know if it 120 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 5: was yesterday of the day before, but. 121 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,359 Speaker 6: One of the things I was hoping maybe you'd have 122 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:23,600 Speaker 6: a little bit of an update on Rashaun Evans, what 123 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:25,600 Speaker 6: you know about him and anything like that. 124 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, I got any other questions or yeah. 125 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 5: So and then I was gonna throw out an old 126 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 5: timer stuff so nobody ever brings it up. 127 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 6: But he was kind of a romo of my era, 128 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 6: Danny White. 129 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, if you had a Danny White story, brother, 130 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:47,479 Speaker 3: oh man, I meant, I mean, I got Danny White's 131 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:54,159 Speaker 3: stories because as a kid like I was Danny White. 132 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,839 Speaker 3: You know, I was at my front yard, backyard whatever. 133 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 3: I mean, I was Danny White. I mean, nineteen eighty 134 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 3: three is the first year that I remember being you know, 135 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 3: like really being a Cowboy fan, and he was the 136 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 3: quarterback and he had a great season that year too. 137 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 3: He was never you know, really appreciated all the way fully. 138 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 3: You know, sometimes he was always fighting for his job 139 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 3: with Gary Hogan Boom or whatever. But you know he 140 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 3: was and it was tough because, uh he he joined it, 141 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 3: you know, an era where you know, it was he 142 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 3: was replacing Roger strawback and and they weren't as good. 143 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 3: I mean the team started to to you know, go 144 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 3: down in the eighties and they were pretty good, just 145 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 3: not good enough to get to the super Bowl and 146 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 3: not to get to that level that they were in 147 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 3: the seventies. So he's always going to be underappreciated from 148 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 3: that standpoint. You know, think about it. Think about now, 149 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 3: like you know, as a first string quarterback and punter. 150 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 3: So you know Danny, Yeah, I mean he's he was 151 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 3: and now you know he's still doing stuff, you know 152 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 3: with the with the radio does Compass Radio, so he 153 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 3: does the games. We see him all the time, and uh, 154 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 3: you know, I I just I'm trying to think of 155 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 3: some specific things. But but yeah, Danny, Danny White was 156 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 3: you know He was a guy that I always looked 157 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 3: up to because, like when I was first watching football, 158 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 3: he was the quarterback of the team. And you know, 159 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 3: I still they were so close. They were so close 160 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 3: in the early eighties. And just imagine a play or 161 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 3: two here and there, and then narrative on Danny White 162 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 3: could change dramatically, you know. I mean, they don't lose 163 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 3: that game in the catch game where they get a 164 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 3: couple more plays and get a field goal and win 165 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 3: that game and go to the super Bowl, and you know, 166 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 3: like then his whole mantra changes a little bit there. 167 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:40,199 Speaker 3: So all right. As for Rashaun Evans, Yeah, that's the name. 168 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,679 Speaker 3: It sounded like from last that I heard, they were 169 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,319 Speaker 3: like waiting on a physical there for him, probably going 170 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 3: to sign him to the practice squad. They could elevate him, 171 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 3: you know, on game day if they need to. I 172 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 3: had a lot of tackles last year or the Atlanta 173 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 3: like one hundred and fifty. It's a lot. It's a 174 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 3: lot of tackles. But usually when you make a lot 175 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 3: of plays like that, you go to a team the 176 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 3: next year. So so I don't know the whole story 177 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 3: on him and kind of why he is you know, 178 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 3: hasn't really been with another team like this year he 179 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 3: was with the Eagles. The practice squad didn't last long there. 180 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 3: So you know, this is one of those things. Cowboys 181 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 3: are going to be down with some linebackers. They're kicking 182 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,200 Speaker 3: the tires on guys to see, you know, you know, 183 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 3: can can they can they fit into this system? Uh? 184 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 3: And so that's that's kind of the situation they're in there, 185 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 3: all right. When you let's go to the next caller, 186 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 3: Jeff in North Carolina.

You know, sometimes former players, 224 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 3: it's a tricky deal. It really is, because I this 225 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 3: is the way I view a lot of things in life, 226 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 3: is what's your agenda? Everyone's got one, and then there's 227 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:41,200 Speaker 3: nothing wrong with that, but just what is your agenda? 228 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 3: And sometimes I've seen it where former players pop off 229 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 3: and say some ridiculous statement, and and it's not so 230 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 3: much to say, hey, this is what I think about this. 231 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 3: It's really more about don't forget about me. I'm still around, 232 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 3: you know. I mean, I'm I'm you know, I'm you know, 233 00:11:57,559 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 3: I didn't haven't played in a few years, but you 234 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 3: know I did this and this. I mean a lot 235 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 3: of players that they they missed the spotlight and so 236 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 3: when they get it, and maybe they're not on a 237 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 3: show or whatever they're they're just they're just getting interviewed 238 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:12,559 Speaker 3: by something, you know, they they they pop off and 239 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 3: it happens a lot. Let me also say this on 240 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 3: our podcast here and and also the shows that we 241 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 3: have in the studio. We've got Barry Church, Danny McCrae, 242 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 3: Isaiah stand Back, Named Newton, Jesse, Holly Hope. I'm not 243 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,560 Speaker 3: missing anyone. I mean, we We've got a lot of 244 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:35,439 Speaker 3: guys that played in the NFL, and their perspective as 245 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 3: players is different than what anyone else can can bring. 246 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 3: They have we haven't played, so they bring that to 247 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 3: the table and and and that is very, very valuable. 248 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 3: So the guys you just mentioned former players, they can 249 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 3: talk like that. Michael Irvin does it too. But I 250 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 3: always have a problem when they talk about what's going 251 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 3: on in the locker room. You have been in locker 252 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 3: rooms before, you haven't been in this one. So Donald, 253 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:02,839 Speaker 3: don't sit here and say that you know what's going 254 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,319 Speaker 3: on in the leadership and so and so CD needs 255 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:06,720 Speaker 3: to do this or DAK needs to do this. You 256 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 3: don't know. You don't know. You have been in locker 257 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 3: rooms before, you have an idea how it typically goes, 258 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 3: but you're not in the meetings here, and neither neither 259 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 3: of I, you know, so like we're kind of in 260 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 3: the locker room on media that you know, when when 261 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,679 Speaker 3: the media is open. So that's why it's really tough 262 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,679 Speaker 3: to always listen to former players. They understand the game, 263 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 3: they understand the dynamics of locker room and teammates and 264 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,559 Speaker 3: all that stuff when they were playing. But not always 265 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:37,199 Speaker 3: every single one. So I mean, I have a house, 266 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:38,719 Speaker 3: you have a house, but I don't know what's going 267 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 3: on in your house just because I have one. Just 268 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 3: because I have a car, I don't know what's going 269 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:43,599 Speaker 3: on with your car. I mean that, you know what 270 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:47,440 Speaker 3: I'm saying. So it's really tough with that. You know, 271 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 3: I don't know that Dante wit I don't even know. 272 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,839 Speaker 3: I don't even remember who that is, honestly, but that's 273 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 3: kind of the point. That's what he's trying to do. 274 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 3: So you can google his name and go, who's this 275 00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 3: guy again? Who's Lashawn McCoy? Like, you know, I get it, 276 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 3: and saw McCoy. He's trying to be stephen A. We 277 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 3: all know that. We all know that he's got an agenda. Cool, 278 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 3: good for him. All right, let's go to Alan mercle 279 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 3: Texas Al. What's up all right? Now? You there? 280 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 6: Yeah? 281 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 3: All right? What's that mean? 282 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 6: Hey? I was just going to make a couple of 283 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 6: comments throughout the Cowboys. 284 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 3: Okay, come home? What do you got? 285 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 6: Oh? The first one was I think the dungeons and 286 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 6: Dragons of football have ruined most people's opinions of football 287 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 6: with these fantasy leagues. Anybody can, you know, make changes 288 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 6: when they want to, and they think that's how the 289 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 6: NFL should be. And then the second opinion is, I 290 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 6: think the Cowboys got not only hit in the mouth, 291 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 6: but kicking the boys. And I think they'll respond for 292 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 6: the next three or four games and I think we'll 293 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 6: forget about this game after they when the next three 294 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 6: or four and we will be back to where we 295 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 6: were before and hopefully again we'll be able to play 296 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 6: a little bit better. 297 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I agree. I mean I think it 298 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 3: is gonna be a long season, and I mean that's 299 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 3: what it is. It always happens like that Week four, 300 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 3: Week five, even big wins too, you know, big wins 301 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 3: that that you want to you know, hope that propel 302 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 3: you to something else. It doesn't always happen like that. So, uh, 303 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 3: you know, I I definitely think that this this team 304 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 3: is going is in a transition period where you know, 305 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 3: we'll see what happens, We'll see how they how they 306 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 3: react down the road, you know, how they respond to 307 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 3: this one. This is going to be you know, a 308 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 3: key moment for the for this you know, turning point 309 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 3: kind of for this team. Right before the bye. You've 310 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 3: got to figure out, you know, how they they're going 311 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 3: to respond, and they have responded well in the past. 312 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 3: Doesn't mean they're gonna respond well Monday nine. But every 313 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 3: challenge is different. But but you're right there, they got tested. 314 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 3: They got tested in a lot of ways, more than 315 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 3: just you know, from a physical standpoint, and so now 316 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 3: that they have to you know, they've been embarrassed. This 317 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 3: is embarrassing, and everyone's doing all their their stuff in there. 318 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 3: I saw that people are mopping with with the Cowboys 319 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 3: jerseys and mopping the floors. I mean cool, you know, 320 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 3: and and credit to ESPN for putting it out there, 321 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 3: you know, like that's the good, good, good job them. 322 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 3: I mean, that's that's cool. There's not like Baseball playoffs 323 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 3: or anything else going on. Let's put that out there 324 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 3: so you know, the shows. I don't think that shows 325 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 3: what the Cowboys fans necessarily feel about this team all 326 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 3: the way. But you know, when you when you put 327 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 3: one or two out there, it's certainly sensational to say 328 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 3: the least. But I think the Cowboys, you know, they're 329 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 3: gonna be facing a lot in this game, and more 330 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 3: than just the Chargers. They have to kind of figure 331 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 3: out how they how they respond, so we'll see how 332 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 3: they do. All right, let's go back to the phone line. Now, 333 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 3: Tony in Alexandria, Virginia, Tony, what's up? You're on? 334 00:16:55,840 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 8: What's up currently in Alexander, Virginia. But personal note, actually 335 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 8: that my family and I excarded about we actually close 336 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 8: on a house build and we're going to be moving 337 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 8: to the Dallas area within the next. 338 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:10,400 Speaker 6: Two years here. 339 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 8: So we're really good about that. So so you know, 340 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 8: as a Cowboys fan, at least for me, you know, 341 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 8: they're a former player, and I think we just touched 342 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 8: on this a little bit on one of your last calls. 343 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 8: You know, there are certain former players and local media. 344 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 8: I want to stress local media that I pay strong 345 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 8: attention to. You know, for instance, players Michael Irvin, after 346 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 8: he calms down to whatever he has to say, I 347 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 8: take strong attention to what you have to say. Beyond Sanders, 348 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 8: I say strong attention to what he has to say. 349 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 8: Nate Newton, I pays strong attention to what he has 350 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 8: to say. Your boy Darren Woodson, I pay strong attention 351 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:52,679 Speaker 8: to what he has to say. And then you have 352 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 8: the local media there Mickey, Derek, Ryan Ambar and yourself. 353 00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 8: The reason why I listen to you guys is because 354 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,880 Speaker 8: I value your opinion. That's why I'm on. That's why 355 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:04,919 Speaker 8: you know I'm trying to get on here and uh 356 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 8: and talk to you because Nick, I value your opinion. 357 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 8: In hell, there are some callers that you know, we 358 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 8: all have our opinion and some callers are going to 359 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 8: agree with, some may not agree with. Like you know, 360 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 8: us all Cowboys fans, we can agree to disagree on 361 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,399 Speaker 8: things that we may not that we may not agree on. 362 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 8: But one caller in particular that I kind of agree with, 363 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:27,400 Speaker 8: and it was called in a couple of times from 364 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 8: Rob from Vegas, and I, you know, I kind of 365 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:34,119 Speaker 8: agree with what he's saying about Dak. But my whole 366 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:38,120 Speaker 8: thing is this goes back to when they let Amari 367 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 8: Cooper go. In my opinion, they let Amari Cooper go 368 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 8: but did not replace them. And I know you just 369 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 8: said a little while ago, you're number one receiver. Cede 370 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 8: Lamb is here. I want cdee Lamb on my team. 371 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:51,439 Speaker 8: But if he's going to be our one, then we 372 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 8: need a one A because if you can, if you 373 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:55,919 Speaker 8: pay attention to some of these other teams that are 374 00:18:55,920 --> 00:19:00,159 Speaker 8: out there, Billy A. J. Brown, Devonte Smith, Stampons just 375 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 8: so be the deebo I use, Seattle metcalf Lock in 376 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 8: Miami hill Waddle. They all have weapons and more than 377 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 8: one weapon. And in my opinion, just our other weapons 378 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 8: aren't stepping up. I mean besides to me, in my opinion, 379 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 8: besides Ceedee Lamb and Tony Pollard, I don't know who 380 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 8: I'm not often carrying.

Uh today or or maybe it might 568 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:10,680 Speaker 3: have been yesterday, but just certainly this week in Walt Garrison, 569 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:14,360 Speaker 3: who passed away, you talked about a cowboy. I mean, 570 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 3: this guy now only played Oklahoma State Cowboys, played for 571 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 3: the Cowboys. He was a cowboy. I mean, like in 572 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,439 Speaker 3: real life. And everyone I think knows the story. I 573 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 3: know if you're if you've taken a tour here at 574 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 3: the Star, I mean that it's one of the things 575 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,880 Speaker 3: that they mentioned as you're walking through and they talk 576 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:32,640 Speaker 3: about signing bonuses and things like that. It's been it's 577 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 3: been well documented that, you know, Walt Garrison signing bonus 578 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 3: was like a trailer, uh, a horse trailer. So I 579 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 3: believe he still had it. But he passed away this week. 580 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 3: And uh, he was fullback running back. I mean, I 581 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 3: think we just had a call last week about about 582 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 3: Walt Garrison and how you know he he ran with 583 00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 3: Calvin Hill and all that. He was kind of one 584 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 3: of those you know, old school the game has changed asleep, 585 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 3: but you know, a full back running back, tough guy, 586 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:06,560 Speaker 3: and you know you couldn't you couldn't be more of 587 00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 3: a cowboy than Walt Garrison. So I want to want 588 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 3: to pass on my thoughts and prayers to his family 589 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 3: and of course the cowboys. You know he was. He 590 00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 3: was a true cowboy through and through, so I wanted 591 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 3: to definitely mention him. All right, let's go with Sebastian 592 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 3: in Savannah, Georgia. 593 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 12: Sebastian, I want to changed my whole call resting heaving 594 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:30,959 Speaker 12: walk Garrison once a Cowboy with Juliet John Julia's I 595 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 12: believe it this with what with John Julias.

Yeah, amazing cowboy right there. 597 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,200 Speaker 12: That's I mean the man in the white cowboy had well, 598 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 12: that threw me off. You know, it's all good Hey, 599 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 12: good morning morning. Yeah yeah, I was thinking, I just, 600 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 12: you know, looked at all their games from San Francisco. 601 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 12: San Francisco has been doing this to like everything for 602 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 12: a minute now ever since they found their quarterback. They're 603 00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 12: embarrassing people. So I don't feel as bad anymore. I'm 604 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 12: looking at the schedule and I'm like, man, I love 605 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 12: the schedule. 606 00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 6: Nick. 607 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 12: This is the first time in a long time that 608 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 12: we when we when we get to the playoffs, No 609 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 12: one's going to say we haven't played anybody. We're gonna 610 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 12: be battle test that, we're gonna be ready, and we're 611 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 12: going to earn another shot of the title fight this year. 612 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 12: So I'm not worried when kelling them come in this week. 613 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 12: You know he's going to run the ball. He's actually 614 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 12: honestly been running it about fifty to fifty watching their 615 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 12: games right now. But you know they're going to be 616 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 12: bringing a little bit extra this week. So how do 617 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 12: you think our defense is going to hang out with 618 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 12: the run game from Austin Eckler. They use them in 619 00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 12: the past game a lot too. And I'll hang up 620 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 12: and listen. 621 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, great day, Thanks man, Thanks Sabastian. You know you're right. 622 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 3: I mean, Kellen's going to bring out everything that that 623 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 3: he's got. I think in this one, this is probably 624 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 3: going to be I think it's probably gonna be a 625 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 3: high scoring game. That's kind of what I feel like. 626 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:48,480 Speaker 3: I just think, you know, all games kind of take 627 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 3: on a life of their own. I think I think 628 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 3: the Cowboys offense is going to we'll respond. I really 629 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,760 Speaker 3: believe that, and I think they're going to score some points. 630 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 3: But I think they're going to have to, you know, 631 00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 3: because I think that I think that the Chargers are 632 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,240 Speaker 3: also going to uh light up the score. But I 633 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 3: think it's gonna be one of those games. I really do. 634 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:05,800 Speaker 3: So you know, how do you how do you handle it? 635 00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 8: Uh? 636 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 3: You know, you you've got you know, you've got to 637 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 3: make sure that that you get after Herbert because we 638 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 3: said this, I think yesterday. You know, they want to 639 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 3: take shots down the field. That's what they like to do. 640 00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 3: They like to throw it deep. But you know, you 641 00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:21,280 Speaker 3: got to sit there in the pocket for a little 642 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 3: bit and and let that happen. And that's where Micah Tank, 643 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 3: Durrance Armstrong, Darrants. Armstrong has been pretty quiet, let's be honest, 644 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 3: Like he hasn't really done a whole lot this year. 645 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 3: He had we had a couple of sacks I think 646 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 3: in the first game, I mean we all did. I mean, 647 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 3: I mean I almost got one, you know, I mean 648 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 3: I would have had like eight seven sacks. No, but 649 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 3: Daarrance he had he think he had to that game. 650 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 3: But since then we haven't heard a lot from him. 651 00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:47,239 Speaker 3: This is one of those games where we need to 652 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:50,680 Speaker 3: see him step up. I'd like to see Sam Williams 653 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 3: in there as well, Dante Fowler. You know these guys 654 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 3: I think that you know, especially if and and and 655 00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:58,680 Speaker 3: I say this, and I had a I had a 656 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:00,840 Speaker 3: text question. I want to throw the name up here 657 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:05,440 Speaker 3: to from His name was Brian. He talked about Micah 658 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 3: playing linebacker. What are the advantages of disadvantages you see 659 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 3: if Micah moves back to a true linebacker spot, which 660 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 3: has kind of been talked about a little bit. I 661 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 3: don't know if you'll see it all the time, but 662 00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 3: but if that happens, let's just say, what are the 663 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 3: advantages the advantages are? You know, it's a look that 664 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 3: that the Chargers really haven't seen. Also, it puts him 665 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 3: in a in a position where he'll go and and 666 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 3: and you know, he should be able to chase the football. 667 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 3: And it's got one of your best players, if not 668 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 3: your your very best defensive player, to go get the 669 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 3: football and do it from all over the place. It's 670 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 3: hard to scheme against him. You can't. You know, you 671 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 3: couldn't scheme against ray Lewis. He was sitting in the 672 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 3: middle of the field, you know, And I don't know 673 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 3: if he'll play that spot, but it's just it's hard 674 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:48,960 Speaker 3: to go away from Micah Parsons if he's if he's 675 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 3: lining up in different spots. So that's that's the one advantage. 676 00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 3: The disadvantage though, is that you're not always getting your 677 00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 3: best pass rusher to rush the passer, so you have 678 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 3: to kind of give that up a little bit. So 679 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 3: that that's one thing. But but I think that you know, 680 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:06,880 Speaker 3: it's going to certainly be a challenge there. All right, 681 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 3: let's go to Robin Vegas. 682 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 6: Rob. 683 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:10,520 Speaker 3: What's up? 684 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:11,480 Speaker 4: Hey? 685 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 6: Nick? 686 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 3: What's up? 687 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 2: Mean? 688 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 3: You got you got other callers that are referencing you. Now, 689 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 3: you know you you've you've become You've become that that guy. 690 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 13: Now that's great. 691 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 3: What's up? 692 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 5: Man? 693 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 13: You know I've been giving Dack a lot of grief, 694 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 13: but I'm gonna throw this on, uh, Mike McCarty a little. 695 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 13: You know, maybe me and other fans we we didn't 696 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 13: hate Kellen Moore. I like this play calling, like a 697 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:40,200 Speaker 13: situational play calling. There was too many times where we 698 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:43,240 Speaker 13: would get eight yards on first down and then on 699 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 13: second down he would throw incomplete. Third down, we take 700 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,920 Speaker 13: a sack and we're looking at each other like, why 701 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 13: don't we just from the bobet eight yards? 702 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 6: Yeah? 703 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:54,720 Speaker 13: And I and I think the mistake we made, well 704 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 13: McCarthy made, and I think he made this because one 705 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 13: I think he wanted to be in the old saying, 706 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:02,880 Speaker 13: if I'm going down with the ship, were going. 707 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 6: Down my way. 708 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:07,320 Speaker 13: But I think the mistake was they blew the whole 709 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:10,200 Speaker 13: thing up when they just needed to tweak it. And 710 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 13: twenty twenty one, I'm going to give Deck some love. 711 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 13: He was thirty thirty seven touchdown ten picks last year. Okay, 712 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:21,920 Speaker 13: fifteen picks. But every Cowboy fan, anybody watching the games, 713 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,920 Speaker 13: I would say five of them. I remember the one 714 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:27,880 Speaker 13: where he hit hender shot in the hands and against 715 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:30,800 Speaker 13: Tennessee and he slipped it up at it. I'm sorry, 716 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:34,359 Speaker 13: I would take five interceptions away from Deck. That's only ten. 717 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:37,759 Speaker 13: I think any fan right now, if we said Beck, 718 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 13: give us thirty and ten, we'd. 719 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,360 Speaker 5: Be like, let's go take it right now. 720 00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 13: I think the problem with Mike McCarthy's offense, what is 721 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:50,560 Speaker 13: it's too basic that that worked twenty years ago. And honestly, 722 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 13: I think what we're seeing is if you'll get a 723 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 13: dink and dunk, you have to be perfect. You cannot 724 00:34:56,400 --> 00:35:02,399 Speaker 13: take tackles for loss, any penalties and you get one 725 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 13: of those things and you're put behind the chains. Now 726 00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:06,719 Speaker 13: it's first and twenty. All of a sudden, they just 727 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:09,040 Speaker 13: stole because you know what they're gonna do. They're gonna 728 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,799 Speaker 13: throw a three yard pass hoping he's going to turn 729 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:15,399 Speaker 13: it into ten, which really happens, and they don't push 730 00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,839 Speaker 13: the ball. I think he needs to get look at 731 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 13: what they did, you know, on the kellen and mix 732 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 13: it back in. 733 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:26,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I mean I agree. I agree with that, 734 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:29,279 Speaker 3: and I think you don't have the intermediate throws as much, 735 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 3: and your receivers are not guys that are just going 736 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 3: to shake people loose. So these two to three yard 737 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:39,280 Speaker 3: passes and expecting them to get free for ten, fifteen, 738 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 3: maybe bigger plays than that, that just doesn't happen. I mean, ceedee, 739 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:46,320 Speaker 3: Lamb's not playing Kansas State anymore, you know. And I 740 00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:48,920 Speaker 3: say that because that's the game. I remember him taking 741 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 3: a five yard hitch and just taking it to the house. 742 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 3: And so you're right, these receivers don't have that yak 743 00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:00,400 Speaker 3: that kind of helps with the kind of off instead 744 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,400 Speaker 3: that looks like that they're playing right now, and it. 745 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:06,560 Speaker 13: Would also help the running game. Right now, they know 746 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:09,640 Speaker 13: you're gonna throw short. Everybody's closer to the line of scrimmage. 747 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:12,920 Speaker 13: It's also hurting the offensive line because he's he's I 748 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 13: was watching him take a three step drop and Nick 749 00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:17,600 Speaker 13: bos is like, dude, I can almost grab you right now, 750 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:20,880 Speaker 13: and it's like, get him back. If you get him 751 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:22,799 Speaker 13: in a five or seven, at least that can now 752 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:25,800 Speaker 13: see the guy coming and maybe spin out like like 753 00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:29,000 Speaker 13: Romo used to do, and Dack does sometimes just spin 754 00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:32,399 Speaker 13: up and give him something. But I just think they're 755 00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:35,280 Speaker 13: just too tight unless you've got an eighty five Bears 756 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:38,359 Speaker 13: defense where you're holding everybody to like six or eight, 757 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:41,720 Speaker 13: which ain't happening anymore. I don't think this works. 758 00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:42,239 Speaker 14: Mix it up. 759 00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:46,799 Speaker 13: Use Brandon Cooks. Like you said, he's invisible, because I'm 760 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:49,280 Speaker 13: not saying he could just run deep but over the middle. 761 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 13: They took that pass totally out of the game. They 762 00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:55,640 Speaker 13: don't throw deep in cuts at all. And you know 763 00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:57,800 Speaker 13: what Dallup's gonna do. He's gonna run just down the 764 00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 13: sideline on a quick slant. That's all he does. And 765 00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 13: I just think they need Mike mccauthy needs a turnaround. 766 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 14: So you know what, I blew it up. 767 00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:05,879 Speaker 6: Too much. 768 00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:07,840 Speaker 13: Bring it, bring some of that back, keep some of this. 769 00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:10,480 Speaker 13: And I think this offense could be better because all 770 00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:14,120 Speaker 13: we need is this offense to score a consistent twenty 771 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 13: three points. If they could score twenty three points, so 772 00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:19,360 Speaker 13: I don't need the average thirty, you'd be great. Twenty 773 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 13: three points. I think we win most of these games. 774 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree. All right, Rob, thanks for the thanks 775 00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:29,719 Speaker 3: for the call. You know, I said this yesterday. I 776 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:31,600 Speaker 3: love I love this call. It's one of my favorite. 777 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:35,240 Speaker 3: This is my favorite call of the day because I've 778 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:38,359 Speaker 3: we've heard from from Rob from Vegas and he's he's 779 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 3: you know, he's very been you know, he's been one 780 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:42,680 Speaker 3: of those guys that's been very opinionated about dak in 781 00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:45,399 Speaker 3: the offense and you know, and rightfully so. And that's fine. 782 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,080 Speaker 3: That's what the show's all about. That's what that's what 783 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:50,759 Speaker 3: what happens here. But it's what I said yesterday, kind 784 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 3: of it's Thursday, kind of kind of getting that that 785 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:55,680 Speaker 3: turn again, you know, Monday, Tuesday was like, that's not 786 00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:58,440 Speaker 3: going to happen now, you know, get to Thursday. It's 787 00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 3: what I said yesterday. It's like, okay, well let's see 788 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 3: how it goes, then by Friday get optimistic again, you know, 789 00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:06,920 Speaker 3: and then Sunday or Monday in this case, you're just 790 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,879 Speaker 3: like let's go, Like, let's go. And that's what that's 791 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 3: what being a fan's all about. So I love it. 792 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 3: I can actually hear it where you're like, all right, 793 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:17,320 Speaker 3: it's not as bad as it needs to be. Just 794 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:19,040 Speaker 3: what we need to do, tweaks and stuff like that. 795 00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:22,440 Speaker 3: Like that is the definition of a fan right there. 796 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:25,640 Speaker 3: I love it. Paul. I mean, Rob keep calling all 797 00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 3: the time. I say Paul, because I got a text 798 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:29,800 Speaker 3: from Paul and Vancouver. He goes, there's a concern that 799 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,560 Speaker 3: the offense doesn't have something that they can lean on. 800 00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:36,080 Speaker 3: I think that should be Tony Paouler running behind Jack Steele, 801 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 3: scoon maker, you know that whole like what's your identity 802 00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:41,240 Speaker 3: of the team and all that stuff. 803 00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:41,440 Speaker 8: You know. 804 00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:44,080 Speaker 3: I don't know if I love that question, but from 805 00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:46,719 Speaker 3: a standpoint of what do you do? You know, like 806 00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:50,440 Speaker 3: what would you say you do here? And that's what 807 00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:54,759 Speaker 3: they need to figure out, like like can we run 808 00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:55,080 Speaker 3: the ball? 809 00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:55,799 Speaker 6: We can? 810 00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:57,359 Speaker 3: We get it on third and one, third and two, 811 00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 3: and that's something that to be honest, they missed that 812 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,920 Speaker 3: because with Zeke. They they had that where they felt 813 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,120 Speaker 3: like they could get a yard or two, and that 814 00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:09,400 Speaker 3: was I think the toughest part of the game. The 815 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:12,400 Speaker 3: other night was that fourth and two right before halftime. 816 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:15,239 Speaker 3: You're down fourteen points and they don't go for it, 817 00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 3: and it's like, yeah, you're probably handing them to three 818 00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 3: or seven if you don't get it. But you're down fourteen. 819 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:25,200 Speaker 3: You were already like you're you're down here, You've got 820 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:27,040 Speaker 3: to play catch up. When are you gonna catch up? 821 00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:27,759 Speaker 8: You know? 822 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,120 Speaker 3: And so I thought that was just a sign up 823 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 3: that we can't get these two yards. That right there 824 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,680 Speaker 3: was where I thought the game, you know, it was 825 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:38,399 Speaker 3: already you're already losing it, And I thought that one 826 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:41,600 Speaker 3: kind of changed the whole thing there. All right, let's 827 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 3: go to another question here. This is from CW in Hollywood. 828 00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:49,239 Speaker 3: So San Francisco lines up on defense like we do 829 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 3: with two linebackers. Why don't our linebackers look like Warner 830 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:56,880 Speaker 3: and Greenlaw on the field because they're because they're not 831 00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:59,800 Speaker 3: Warner and green Law. I mean, like Warner. Warner is 832 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:03,759 Speaker 3: an outstanding football player. He might be one of the 833 00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:07,040 Speaker 3: most underrated players in the league, or he just absolutely 834 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 3: just destroys Dallas. I don't know, but I mean, does 835 00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 3: he play like that another games? I can't say. I 836 00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 3: watched him them all the time, but he's just amazing. 837 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:18,759 Speaker 3: He like I said the other day, he's got some 838 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:22,000 Speaker 3: Palla malu in him in that he's where he needs 839 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:25,239 Speaker 3: to be, you know, up the line of scrimmager back now, 840 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 3: there were a couple of plays in the game where 841 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:29,200 Speaker 3: you know it's like, Okay, he is human. He's not 842 00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:31,399 Speaker 3: gonna go chase Brandon Cooks. And if Dak doesn't throw 843 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:33,880 Speaker 3: the ball out of bounds, that's probably a touchdown because 844 00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:35,320 Speaker 3: he ran right by and they got him in a 845 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:37,480 Speaker 3: perfect mismatch. That was one of the if that fourth 846 00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 3: and two wasn't the biggest play of the game, it 847 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:42,879 Speaker 3: was there when Dak missed Cooks going deep. You gotta 848 00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 3: give him a chance. You can't throw it out of 849 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:47,360 Speaker 3: bounds fifty three yards to work with, and in this 850 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:51,120 Speaker 3: case it's about twenty five one way or another, and 851 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:53,640 Speaker 3: cook Cooks can go get it because he's so wide open. 852 00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,000 Speaker 3: I can't throw it to the cheerleaders. You just can't 853 00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:59,800 Speaker 3: do that because that doesn't help anybody. So but I 854 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:05,479 Speaker 3: vander esh and dmont Clark are not green Law and Wonner. 855 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:07,680 Speaker 3: That's why they don't look like that because they're not 856 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,239 Speaker 3: They're not as good as players that as athletic as 857 00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 3: those guys are, those guys are flying around the ball 858 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 3: and making a lot of plays. Not many teams if 859 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:20,680 Speaker 3: anybody has got two linebackers like that? All right, Russ 860 00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:23,439 Speaker 3: from North Carolina? Why is Mazzie Smith never mentioned he's 861 00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:26,200 Speaker 3: Is he not playing many snaps? If not? Is he 862 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:30,759 Speaker 3: not ready? He obviously isn't ready. He obviously is not ready. 863 00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 3: There was a there was a moment in the game 864 00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:35,440 Speaker 3: they were down on the one yard line, third and 865 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:39,400 Speaker 3: one from the one. He wasn't in the game, and 866 00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 3: I didn't understand that, and that that's I mean, if anything, 867 00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:46,120 Speaker 3: he could be out there for that. Strength is strength. 868 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:48,000 Speaker 3: If he's got the strength, he should be able to 869 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:50,200 Speaker 3: be there for that. He has been another place. So 870 00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 3: I'm not really sure why he's not playing. I would 871 00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:56,360 Speaker 3: he's healthy, So the court the answer has to be 872 00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:58,640 Speaker 3: that he's just not ready. They don't feel like he's 873 00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 3: ready to to con tribute on that level. And that's 874 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:04,440 Speaker 3: that's disappointing. I mean, it has to be what other way. 875 00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:05,880 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not not giving up on a guy. 876 00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:08,080 Speaker 3: It's early, it's literally in his career, but it's just 877 00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:11,520 Speaker 3: surprising and disappointing at your first round pick, because that 878 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:13,279 Speaker 3: is usually the reason why you draft a guy in 879 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:15,919 Speaker 3: the first round. That is why you you go first 880 00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:19,160 Speaker 3: round on anybody. Is is when you're when you're weighing 881 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 3: this guy versus this guy. It's it's always about Okay, 882 00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:25,520 Speaker 3: what can they do, you know, down the road, but 883 00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:28,960 Speaker 3: also right now, like what how can they? 884 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:29,160 Speaker 8: You know? 885 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,440 Speaker 3: The readiness to play is usually a factor there. So 886 00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:35,120 Speaker 3: that's a little surprising to me that he hasn't he 887 00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:37,520 Speaker 3: hasn't been able to contribute a little bit more. All Right, 888 00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:41,279 Speaker 3: we'll go to the phones. Al from Washington, d C. Al, 889 00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:45,360 Speaker 3: what's up, hey, Nick, Hey man, can you hear me? 890 00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:46,560 Speaker 3: I can. How are you doing? 891 00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:46,879 Speaker 6: Yeah? 892 00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:52,160 Speaker 14: Very good. Been a Cowboy fan for fifty seven years 893 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:56,160 Speaker 14: and watched a lot of Cowboys. I think that was 894 00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 14: the first game in fifty seven years. At the eight 895 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,399 Speaker 14: minut at Mark, I had to I just turned it off. 896 00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:06,080 Speaker 14: I couldn't watch it anymore. I was even there when 897 00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:09,000 Speaker 14: we were one in fifteen. So I want to ask 898 00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:11,799 Speaker 14: you a question, and I really think that we need 899 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:16,879 Speaker 14: to consider this on defense. Offense will come along, we'll 900 00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:21,800 Speaker 14: get that. But on the defense, why aren't we running 901 00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:25,560 Speaker 14: what I guess you could call either a five two 902 00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:32,040 Speaker 14: or a three four meaning tankins over the center, two tackles, 903 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:36,640 Speaker 14: which we have, and then you know, we've got plenty 904 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:39,640 Speaker 14: of dns that can get you know, play the run 905 00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:43,080 Speaker 14: and play the pass and put eleven and thirty three, 906 00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:47,280 Speaker 14: eleven to the strong side, thirty three to the weak side, 907 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:50,239 Speaker 14: and I don't see how they can run on us 908 00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:52,799 Speaker 14: that way. But for some reason we want to stay 909 00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:56,920 Speaker 14: in this four two or four three or whatever you 910 00:43:57,000 --> 00:44:00,640 Speaker 14: want to call it. We need three down linemen in 911 00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:03,560 Speaker 14: the middle to stop the run. We need to force 912 00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:06,759 Speaker 14: them to throw the ball. And that's all all I 913 00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:08,880 Speaker 14: wanted to inject and see what your thoughts were. 914 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:11,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, uh, thanks for the call. I mean 915 00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:15,160 Speaker 3: I think that you you know, it's it's not as 916 00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 3: easy to just make these adjustments in the middle of 917 00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 3: the season, after you you know, go through all training 918 00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:22,839 Speaker 3: camp and all that kind of stuff, and especially it's 919 00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:25,160 Speaker 3: it's surprising when you think about it, of just like 920 00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:29,560 Speaker 3: where we are, of and I'm not not everyone's saying this. 921 00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:33,279 Speaker 3: You're saying this, but it's probably surprising for you that that, 922 00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:36,800 Speaker 3: you know, two or three weeks ago is what's the 923 00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:39,480 Speaker 3: nickname of this defense? You know, we're all asking like, well, 924 00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:41,840 Speaker 3: how great this defense can be? An now it's it's like, 925 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:44,759 Speaker 3: you know, should they change it? Are they? Are they 926 00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:48,840 Speaker 3: not lined up correctly? You know you say that about 927 00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:53,360 Speaker 3: make teams throw the ball, but that's scary too. And 928 00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:55,880 Speaker 3: and and I saw a stat the other day the 929 00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:59,279 Speaker 3: Cowboys have beaten three teams. I think they're where they 930 00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 3: rank and score. It's like thirty, second, thirty and twenty seven. 931 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:07,600 Speaker 3: And they are going to face one, two, three, four, five, 932 00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:10,440 Speaker 3: six and seven this year and one of them is Sandy. 933 00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:12,919 Speaker 3: I'm sorry, San dang it. I knew I was gonna 934 00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:16,520 Speaker 3: do that one time this week LA Chargers. Maybe they 935 00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:19,680 Speaker 3: should move back, But I just think that, you know, 936 00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:21,400 Speaker 3: they're one of those teams too, so they're gonna have 937 00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:23,160 Speaker 3: to face the teams that are putting up a lot 938 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:25,640 Speaker 3: of points too, So just saying make them throw it's 939 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:27,480 Speaker 3: kind of scary as well, when you're looking at the 940 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:29,719 Speaker 3: injuries that they've had at the secondary and some of 941 00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:33,359 Speaker 3: the receivers that they're going to face. You know, Dan 942 00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:35,960 Speaker 3: Quinn is a great defensive coach, he really is. I 943 00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:38,319 Speaker 3: think that they'll they'll figure this thing out. I don't 944 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:40,920 Speaker 3: think it's they needed to switch out the schemes. This 945 00:45:41,080 --> 00:45:42,880 Speaker 3: is what they've practiced. This is what they've done and 946 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,080 Speaker 3: it has been successful. This is what they're gonna have 947 00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:47,680 Speaker 3: to lean on. They could tighten the screws a little bit, 948 00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:48,480 Speaker 3: but I think they can do that. 949 00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:48,719 Speaker 6: All right. 950 00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:51,160 Speaker 3: Last call, we go to Steve and New York. Steve, 951 00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:51,560 Speaker 3: what's up? 952 00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:53,359 Speaker 6: What's up next? 953 00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:53,879 Speaker 3: How you doing? 954 00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:54,480 Speaker 6: That's all right? 955 00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:56,719 Speaker 15: I called to Jack Murphy the other day. I was 956 00:45:57,120 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 15: talking to somebody. 957 00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:02,480 Speaker 3: The game was where I just wanted a little bit different. 958 00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:07,640 Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, it's night day, Yeah, a little bit. 959 00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:10,480 Speaker 15: I just wanted to puss real quick on something you 960 00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:12,640 Speaker 15: had said, I think a year ago or so. It 961 00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:15,320 Speaker 15: was on when you guys had to show together. You 962 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:18,000 Speaker 15: made a statement, and I'm paraphrasing, but you said that 963 00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:22,440 Speaker 15: if Dak Prescott has to be a drop back pocket passer, 964 00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:23,560 Speaker 15: the Cowboys are going to. 965 00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:24,160 Speaker 6: Have a problem. 966 00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:26,719 Speaker 15: When you originally said that, I was like, wow, that's 967 00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:30,000 Speaker 15: kind of a strong statement. But Obviously you're implying that 968 00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:33,160 Speaker 15: he has to run use his legs more, and I 969 00:46:33,320 --> 00:46:35,120 Speaker 15: understand it now. So that's why I want to ask you, 970 00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:39,120 Speaker 15: is it just me or does he look slower out there? 971 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:42,560 Speaker 15: And I don't know. He used to be able to 972 00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:46,319 Speaker 15: get away from defenders he can't. And do you think 973 00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:49,399 Speaker 15: he's hesitant to run because of the injury? I kind 974 00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:51,319 Speaker 15: of think yes to both of those. I just wanted 975 00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:52,120 Speaker 15: your take on Yeah. 976 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:55,480 Speaker 3: I mean, I think, yeah, thanks for bringing that up. 977 00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:57,600 Speaker 3: But from a year ago, thank you for saying no. 978 00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:01,160 Speaker 3: I mean, I I believe that that's not what scouts 979 00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:04,439 Speaker 3: know what's going on. Okay, NFL scouts know the deal. 980 00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,440 Speaker 3: He's not drafted in the He wasn't drafted till the 981 00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:11,279 Speaker 3: fourth round, and that's because of you know, they they 982 00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:14,160 Speaker 3: know what he can do as a passer and all 983 00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:16,439 Speaker 3: that stuff. Now he's been way better than people thought 984 00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:18,440 Speaker 3: they would redraft him. He would have been in the 985 00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:20,800 Speaker 3: first round, of course. But but the thing is is 986 00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:24,359 Speaker 3: that is that he was always a football player type, 987 00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:26,279 Speaker 3: running on the move and making throws and all that 988 00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:28,880 Speaker 3: just kind of is a gamer where the lights came on. 989 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:32,479 Speaker 3: I do think the injury has made him a little 990 00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:35,080 Speaker 3: bit more hesitant, and you can't be that way when 991 00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:36,880 Speaker 3: you're running, you know, when you need to run. I mean, 992 00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:39,160 Speaker 3: it's just the boom, gotta go see it, hit it, 993 00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:42,239 Speaker 3: do it. And I don't think that that is there 994 00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:45,120 Speaker 3: as much so that that's probably one of the reasons 995 00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:46,920 Speaker 3: why it looks a little slower. And he might just 996 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:49,320 Speaker 3: be slower. I mean eight years in the league, a 997 00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:52,040 Speaker 3: lot of hits, a lot of sacks, some surgeries. I mean, 998 00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:54,480 Speaker 3: like you know, I mean, that could be the guy. 999 00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:56,200 Speaker 3: I still think he can run though, I still think 1000 00:47:56,239 --> 00:47:58,560 Speaker 3: he can move. He can be that type of quarterback. 1001 00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:00,840 Speaker 3: He's going to have to be because you know, you 1002 00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:03,160 Speaker 3: got to play to your strings. So just standing there 1003 00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:05,120 Speaker 3: in the pocket and making throws, making the reads and 1004 00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:07,480 Speaker 3: all that stuff, that's not what he is. It's never 1005 00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:09,560 Speaker 3: been what he is. What he is is a guy 1006 00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:13,000 Speaker 3: that needs to play with what they give them, what 1007 00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:15,120 Speaker 3: they give them, what they take, and so he's gonna 1008 00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:17,440 Speaker 3: they have to figure that out. But he's also going 1009 00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:21,040 Speaker 3: to have to scheme open his his top players. They've 1010 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:23,160 Speaker 3: got to figure that out, and how to get the 1011 00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:25,960 Speaker 3: ball to ceedee lamb all the time. He's if he's 1012 00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:29,240 Speaker 3: complaining that he wants the football. Give him the football, 1013 00:48:29,600 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 3: Give him the ball, because good things can happen. So 1014 00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:34,120 Speaker 3: that's what they have to do. They have to figure 1015 00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:36,960 Speaker 3: that outsier said than done, but but that's that's what 1016 00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:39,840 Speaker 3: has to happen. They got an extra day of practice 1017 00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:41,759 Speaker 3: this week. They should be able to figure that out, 1018 00:48:41,840 --> 00:48:43,279 Speaker 3: you know, this week and try to you know, you know, 1019 00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:46,080 Speaker 3: get the offense clicking again. And then of course they 1020 00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:48,000 Speaker 3: got the bye week as well. And then maybe from 1021 00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:52,160 Speaker 3: the call before from Al who's talking about defensive alignment schemes, 1022 00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:55,080 Speaker 3: maybe you can implement more of those kind of new 1023 00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:57,560 Speaker 3: looks and new wrinkles in a bye week. But they 1024 00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:00,520 Speaker 3: they certainly have things work to do on offense, defense, 1025 00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:03,200 Speaker 3: and even special teams. Now with CJ. Goodwin gonna be 1026 00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:06,680 Speaker 3: out for maybe most of the season with a biceps injury, 1027 00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:09,600 Speaker 3: you know, they they're losing a really good player there. 1028 00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:12,000 Speaker 3: So you know, no one's feeling sorry for this team 1029 00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:14,239 Speaker 3: that they gotta they gotta turn it around. But they 1030 00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:16,799 Speaker 3: have plenty of time to do that, and I think, 1031 00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:20,839 Speaker 3: you know, I think they're certainly capable of it. All right, 1032 00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:23,719 Speaker 3: great show today, I got ten calls, you guys, were 1033 00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:27,000 Speaker 3: really good. We'll do it again tomorrow. So for Chris Beam, 1034 00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:29,160 Speaker 3: I'm Nick Eatman. We'll see tomorrow on Cowboys storyline. 1035 00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:32,759 Speaker 2: This has been a production of dallascowboys dot Com and 1036 00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:34,759 Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys football club 1037 00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:00,040 Speaker 3: S.
