Speaker 3: Clay Man has to ask if you'd have been mowing
Speaker 3: now So.
Speaker 2: It is yes, it is digital gain paid pound mind. So, yeah,
Speaker 2: you're right, A.
Speaker 3: Beautiful mind. That's what Mike McCarthy said about quarterback Trey Lance,
Speaker 3: his ability to retain information.
Speaker 2: A beautiful mone man. He said, he heard new. He
Speaker 2: said he got to learn the playbook first. He said,
Speaker 2: oh you think so, sounds like he knows it. That's
Speaker 2: what they say it man, right on the street, is
Speaker 2: you have to know. I don't know. You know, they're
Speaker 2: gonna say you got to hype up the kid because
Speaker 2: he just got here and let you know what the
Speaker 2: positives are. He did say his footwork needs some work.
Speaker 2: That's probably the most important thing right now. But yeah,
Speaker 2: I mean, listen, we all know Trey Lance has the
Speaker 2: potential to be a good quarterback. Mike macarthy and I
Speaker 2: just gotta figure out they can get it done and
Speaker 2: then see what happens he's got. You know what, This
Speaker 2: team their media masters, and I love it. We're talking
Speaker 2: about the third string quarterback and we're not talking about
Speaker 2: the funk that we got coming in the first week
Speaker 2: with the New York Giants, because this is the NFC
Speaker 2: East rivalry starting right out to shoot. So I think
Speaker 2: it's all the distraction. I'm sure for Dak Prescott. He's
Speaker 2: happy that they're not talking about him. They're not talking
Speaker 2: about his interceptions and practice no more. We're talking about
Speaker 2: the beautiful mind of Trey Lance and him at the
Speaker 2: board word looking like a third string quarterback.
Speaker 3: Yes, p, I haven't forgot about that. Keep getting this
Speaker 3: stuff on my phone, Steven and Steven ain't living on.
Speaker 2: That, of course, you know that's what are you living on?

Speaker 2: three cowboys, when they go out there, they better be
Speaker 2: ready and they need to bring a victory home because
Speaker 2: we ain't splitting with the giants BC, but this is
Speaker 2: he's not splitting with it. We split with a half.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Do we all here here and in this building benefit
Speaker 2: by people always talking about the caloy negative or positive? Right?
Speaker 2: Like what would the world be if they weren't? Like
Speaker 2: what are you pet? You boring? We're gonna talking about
Speaker 2: Tampa Bay Buccaneers. You can't do that we were talking
Speaker 2: about Aaron. We can talk about your squad. We can
Speaker 2: talk Philly. Let's do it. That's not my squad. Let's boy.
Speaker 3: The Jets do get a lot of attention because there
Speaker 3: is a Northeast bias the ESPN has, so if they
Speaker 3: can start to talk about the Giants and the Jets,
Speaker 3: they do so. They spend a lot of time on
Speaker 3: the Cowboys, spend a lot of time on the Jets
Speaker 3: when you start looking at stuff for me, the dude
Speaker 3: who should who has to be happy that he's not
Speaker 3: really been held accountable at all outside of his area
Speaker 3: and where he plays, is Russell Wilson. They boy to
Speaker 3: talk about all the picks they gave up in Denver
Speaker 3: for Russell Wilson, How coach got fired, how you do
Speaker 3: out here with your own marketing campaign and you and
Speaker 3: the team trying to fight for the trade. Martin, let's ride.
Speaker 3: We're not talking about that. Champagne, come in here, and man,
Speaker 3: your office is gone. No more office for you, your
Speaker 3: personal quarterback coach out the building. We're not speaking on
Speaker 3: Russell Wilson at all. You talk about the celebrity life
Speaker 3: and everything. That thing's gone up.
Speaker 2: I mean it's a lot of people not getting here.
Speaker 2: I mean, I just really, I mean, you tell me,
Speaker 2: so will we say about Russell?
Speaker 3: So when we say, okay, hey, you know what Dack
Speaker 3: on ESPN and these other shows, DAC, if you don't
Speaker 3: take them to the NSC Championship game, you know you
Speaker 3: can't be here. You gotta be going. What about Russell Wilson? Yeah,
Speaker 3: you talk about some seven and eight or seven whatever
Speaker 3: they end up at. Is he still the guy? Is
Speaker 3: Sean Payton running him off? What's his contract situation? They
Speaker 3: gave him a lot of money the new ownership, when
Speaker 3: I gave him two hundred million dollars, That to me
Speaker 3: is amazing. When we come in here, I'm like, where's
Speaker 3: where we forgot about Russ?
Speaker 2: No, nobody's forgot about it.
Speaker 6: But you know that's that's what comes with it when
Speaker 6: you when you got that star in your helmet, I mean,
Speaker 6: it all comes with it. You know, they're always gonna
Speaker 6: focus and have Dak Prescott under a microscope. This was
Speaker 6: the first time I think I've ever realized that. We
Speaker 6: we started counting interceptions in the training camp, like I'm
Speaker 6: never never heard, but it even got myself in here like, man,
Speaker 6: he's adding them up, he's had them.
Speaker 3: Second, he bought that. Why are we talking?
Speaker 6: And I'm saying, I think, why are we talking about
Speaker 6: picks in training camp and practice?
Speaker 2: Your boy was on a lot of them. Nah, ain't
Speaker 2: gonna put why why this is? Also?
Speaker 6: Why does this always happen when the man throws picks?
Speaker 6: It's always somebody else's responsibility for him. It was Kellen
Speaker 6: Moore when it was last year throwing fifteen. Now we're
Speaker 6: talking about because he was throwing.
Speaker 2: We saw, we saw, we saw some clips in simmy
Speaker 2: dropping passes and then those results in interceptions. And then
Speaker 2: last year also we saw some guys get hit in
Speaker 2: the chest with some footballs and and those resulted in
Speaker 2: interceptions as well. Is that is that y'all saw the same? Said? Yes,
Speaker 2: I saw the same. We did. Y'all saw when Hooker
Speaker 2: just basically caught at the training camp, but he was
Speaker 2: making some bad decisions out there. I'm standing up to
Speaker 2: say this because that's how I feel about those interceptions,
Speaker 2: the ones where he was getting intercepted on deep balls
Speaker 2: specifically to Cooks. Is him trying to figure out what
Speaker 2: the connection is like, uh, with Cooks being a new
Speaker 2: receiver here, So I like, whatever, try it out. See
Speaker 2: what you need to do where you need to put
Speaker 2: the ball at. See if he can go go get
Speaker 2: the fifty to fifty ball or not? Figure that out?
Speaker 2: Why you in training camp so we don't see it
Speaker 2: once we get into the season.
Speaker 3: And I call it the spring training in baseball, spring
Speaker 3: training where pictures out there, Well, let me try something new.
Speaker 3: Oh he's getting Let up me get that.
Speaker 2: If you're going to.
Speaker 3: Try something new, spring training as it pictures the place
Speaker 3: to try to do it. My thing was okay. It
Speaker 3: was when I saw touchdowns being thrown. I saw a
Speaker 3: lot of number one on defensive coverage. Wait, I saw
Speaker 3: interceptions being thrown and I looked at who was the
Speaker 3: receiving route.
Speaker 2: I saw a lot of able What am we gonna do? Man,
Speaker 2: it's a lot of material that's got to get being
Speaker 2: thrown away. That Kellen Hey, Kevin's not here, Simmy's not here.
Speaker 2: That's a lot of content gone. Man called over gonna
Speaker 2: be getting playing time. I was like, man, I got
Speaker 2: to feel we're gonna be here. Kevin Joseph and he
Speaker 2: can't know him all the way. He got to keep
Speaker 2: some of them. We're gonna be hearing something.
Speaker 3: Bro gonna kill Gill, get somebody Calvin down there.
Speaker 2: Listen, listen. There are players that leave this organization and
Speaker 2: then they go do good things and many other places.
Speaker 2: So he did, would you say Baron Jones, Baron Jones?
Speaker 2: Would you say Baron Jones winning digs, some good things.
Speaker 6: No, I was talking about he got paid.
Speaker 2: Oh, it's something that now mine never never I check it.
Speaker 2: I sawid, I saw it. Ain't then in Miami he
Speaker 2: got paid, he got baid, he got paid. Man, this
Speaker 2: is what happens in the league.
Speaker 3: So I'm we're sitting here in the studio here at
Speaker 3: the Star and there showing the Jets Giants on NFL Network,
Speaker 3: and uh, I've the positive spin that I have heard
Speaker 3: coming out of the media covering Daniel Jones has been
Speaker 3: surprising to me. I mean, it's it's a whole lot
Speaker 3: to listen to what I've been hearing. This guy's good,
Speaker 3: He's the most improved player around. Somebody even said he
Speaker 3: was going to be the best, the best quarterback in
Speaker 3: the conference. Daniel Lasky on the ESPN talking about how
Speaker 3: the Giants have a better offense in Dallas I mean,
Speaker 3: so I can't wait to get up there Sunday night
Speaker 3: Met Life Stadium and see it go down. Show me.
Speaker 3: I have to be shown that this Daniel Jones is
Speaker 3: now going to become you know, I don't know it's
Speaker 3: Eli part two. I gotta see it because I don't
Speaker 3: believe it.
Speaker 6: I mean, he's not gonna be the best quarterback in
Speaker 6: the division. I mean, I all understand, but look, I
Speaker 6: mean you're talking about most improved. I can see that
Speaker 6: I could see him being one of the most improved players,
Speaker 6: not only when the Giants put in this division.
Speaker 2: I mean, look what he was able to do last year.
Speaker 2: I'm not saying he lit it up.
Speaker 6: I'm not saying he was Patrick Mahomes, but he was
Speaker 6: definitely serviceable with the talent that they had around him.
Speaker 6: To add a few pieces here, get Darren Waller, who's
Speaker 6: a mismatched nightmare out there defense, I think it's gonna
Speaker 6: be pretty good, especially that front seven over there, and
Speaker 6: I feel like New York name be able to They
Speaker 6: won't be I'll tell you this, Dale Jones won't be
Speaker 6: that walking turnover that he was you know previous years.
Speaker 6: You're not just gonna be able to go in there
Speaker 6: and say we put this coverage together, he'll throw us once.
Speaker 2: I don't think he'll be known for that anymore so
Speaker 2: most so most improved in the division. It means he's
Speaker 2: more improved than Jalen Hurts who went to the Super Bowl.
Speaker 2: So not much room for Jalen Hurts to really improved there.
Speaker 2: Dak Prescott through fifteen interceptions last season, I think he's
Speaker 2: going to be I think he's going to improve dramatically
Speaker 2: to where Daniel Jones was getting better than who the commanders.
Speaker 2: I'm with Sam Howell.
Speaker 6: Now, I'm not saying he gonna be the best of
Speaker 6: the division. Now you got Dak, you got Hurt. Those guys, they're.
Speaker 2: Gonna be third or four. He'll he'll he'll be better
Speaker 2: than samhow but he'll have his team in contention. This
Speaker 2: is gonna happen. We won. He's gonna go out there
Speaker 2: and play one of the top five defenses in the league,
Speaker 2: and they're gonna say no, no, not wait, wait, wait, wait,
Speaker 2: Let's let's see what happens next week. He went against
Speaker 2: some of the best guys and that's probably not who
Speaker 2: he's gonna be facing throughout the season. So let's let's
Speaker 2: see what happens then, because I got a feeling that
Speaker 2: Trayvon Diggs I them we're gonna get to the next
Speaker 2: week and Stefan Givemore gonna go out there and they
Speaker 2: gonna and they're gonna make a statement. But in the league,
Speaker 2: let me let me ask this question, because this society
Speaker 2: we live in is fool you. You can see it
Speaker 2: if they tell you now what it is. I'm seeing
Speaker 2: that Daniel Jones has never been anything without Saquon Barkley period.
Speaker 2: So regardless of him being just a bus driver or whatever,
Speaker 2: the person that makes New York dangerous is Saquon Barkley.
Speaker 2: I never thought any different, even with the additions of
Speaker 2: Darren Waller. I think he's just an accent piece to
Speaker 2: the danger that Sakuon Barkley is. So but I anticipated
Speaker 2: that new and improved their health, especially the first game out.
Speaker 2: Everybody is ready to go. But I'm I'm with you.
Speaker 2: Our defense is just too good for Daniel Jones.
Speaker 6: But when you look at it, when you go ahead ahead,
Speaker 6: just scoop back to word you second, go ahead ahead serviceable.
Speaker 2: Now, I'm not saying he's gonna be you know you must,
Speaker 2: but you're serviceable. I'm not saying it was a playoff
Speaker 2: team last year. Okay, I'm just.
Speaker 6: Saying he's gonna be service serviceable when they went to
Speaker 6: the Super Bowl. Daniel Jones was serviceable last season and
Speaker 6: they got to the Division the cot.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that sounds like super Bowl to men. If you
Speaker 2: get in the tournament, you got a chance. We all
Speaker 2: know that. If you get into the you got in.
Speaker 6: I'm saying they got a great opportunity to make have
Speaker 6: the Giants because of right now, I'm not I'm not
Speaker 6: gonna sit there and be concrete in it.
Speaker 2: Right injuries happened. I'm not gonna sit there and be
Speaker 2: like no, But if they stay healthy, I think they
Speaker 2: can get back in. If they do, it's gonna be
Speaker 2: because of Saquon Barklay and that defense.
Speaker 6: Saquon Barkley the defense and Darren Waller because because I'm
Speaker 6: not gonna hit there and be like, Okay, Saquon is
Speaker 6: a beast, but when you look at it, they're two
Speaker 6: beastly players. The tight end Darren Waller, the running back Saquon.
Speaker 6: That's they're dealing with interior people. They're dealing with linebackers
Speaker 6: and safeties. We're not talking about Gilmore, We're not talking
Speaker 6: about Digs. On the off those guys are gonna be
Speaker 6: locked in. Can we handle that inside offense? Can we
Speaker 6: have somebody that can lock down Darren Waller?
Speaker 2: That's a great question. Can we have Who's gonna make one?
Speaker 2: Who do you have? Because right now you have what
Speaker 2: run curse on Darren Waller? That's what the slow defense
Speaker 2: of being running through his face mask. The running team.
Speaker 2: We're gonna be here a lot of a lot of
Speaker 2: them about them. So what happened when they split Hi out?
Speaker 2: And that's what you're gonna have to do. But but
Speaker 2: but then that's your only option against a past rushing squad.
Speaker 3: Are they making the playoffs?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I don't know about that, broad Way Barry.
Speaker 6: Are they taking there's no injuries and they stay healthy. Yes,
Speaker 6: I can see the New York Giants make the playoffs.
Speaker 6: And I'm saying no, that don't have made the playoffs.
Speaker 6: I don't think we send it three teams of the
Speaker 6: playoffs this season out of the Inner Ceast.
Speaker 2: But yeah, we sent three last years. I can see
Speaker 2: it happened. I can see it. Jones.
Speaker 3: He came in with, yes, sir, Giants making the playoff. No,
Speaker 3: absolutely not three nose in Broadway. Barry got him, y'all.
Speaker 6: I'm telling you, y'all, like it's like they're they probably
Speaker 6: team I don't want to be competitive.
Speaker 2: I just don't think they're gonna make the playoffs. And
Speaker 2: definitely not because Daniel Jones is the most improved quarterback
Speaker 2: and hey Jones.
Speaker 6: But if they make the playoffs, it's definitely gonna be
Speaker 6: with Daniel Jones in there too.
Speaker 2: I mean, the guy touches the I don't think he's
Speaker 2: going to be the reason why one when you look
Speaker 2: at when you look at the squad, you're not gonna
Speaker 2: be like man Man. Without Daniel Jones, they would have
Speaker 2: did nothing. You're gonna be like man gonna do his
Speaker 2: turn around. He got to know the BA. This is
Speaker 2: your Nicki Minaj whis Kali for a moment right now?
Speaker 2: Better than like, I ain't gonna get it. Ain't like
Speaker 2: this teammate made the playoffs twelve years. They just made
Speaker 2: it last year. They did. Listen to the second did

Speaker 6: a hell of a year. What about the playoffs?
Speaker 2: No, no, we're talking about killing Moore taking going back
Speaker 2: to the playoffs here, okay, all right, we need to
Speaker 2: take a break to the lash down. Okay, right right,
Speaker 2: all this, okay, what we.

Speaker 2: But is that crazy. Is it top three or top
Speaker 2: five candidate? I'm not. I don't know. I ain't about
Speaker 2: to break it down like that. He's fourth, but he's
Speaker 2: not third. He's a candidate. He's gonna finish top three,
Speaker 2: will finish, top five, Okay, top five?
Speaker 3: See you got it?
Speaker 4: Got it?
Speaker 2: Okay?
Speaker 3: You have the Giants making the playoffs.
Speaker 6: Yes, if they stay healthy, that's one of the cabyats.
Speaker 6: Everybody health healthy, Okay.
Speaker 2: Because because I know what's gonna happen when I come
Speaker 2: in this the Giants lost. I told you wasn't gonna
Speaker 2: happen if if Danny and Barkley are healthy throughout that
Speaker 2: I mean, the team gotta be healthy.
Speaker 6: Like we're talking about Darren Waller, were talking about this defense,
Speaker 6: like I'm saying Danny dives as an m v P candidate,
Speaker 6: I said he was serviceable, which means he's.
Speaker 2: Gonna need his team to help him get to that
Speaker 2: next level.
Speaker 3: Most of If Patrick Maholmes is hurt, I'm kind of
Speaker 3: thinking Kansas City may not have the same.
Speaker 2: Come on, you're talking about put the extra put if healthy, everybody,
Speaker 2: if healthy, team health.
Speaker 3: What we have on Kellen Moore here, we got what
Speaker 3: we got with Kellen Moore.
Speaker 2: Top five offense, Yeah, top five offense, top five.
Speaker 6: Off Yeah, that's gonna be good, bro, because that's that's
Speaker 6: to me, Like this is crazy. Kellen Moore is at
Speaker 6: the top five.
Speaker 2: What was crazy was making making the playoffs even though
Speaker 2: he made it last year like most most much improved
Speaker 2: and like much improved for Daniel Daniel Jones would be okay,
Speaker 2: same as the Cowboys. That means you have them in
Speaker 2: the NFC Championship.
Speaker 6: That's the team we're talking about, Danny Dunne. Okay, So
Speaker 6: we said team and I don't know they're gonna make
Speaker 6: it an NMFC championship.
Speaker 2: But were talking about Dadydas as a.
Speaker 6: Player, he can be most improved past and he only
Speaker 6: threw what seventeen touchdowns last year?
Speaker 2: He can improve all that. Let's more than just seventeen
Speaker 2: touch out he played. How many games you played? He
Speaker 2: played seventeen games? They had seventeen. How many plays? How
Speaker 2: many guys your boy played? You can boy, But he
Speaker 2: damn sure did throw seventeen pix he throw no, he
Speaker 2: seventeen seventeen interceptions, seventeen susy two touchdowns now and I'm
Speaker 2: sure and I'm sure he had more attempts than Daddy
Speaker 2: Dimes did in twelve games. The man led the league
Speaker 2: in picks. Okay, we need to keep going here.
Speaker 3: Chargers hosting the Cowboys on Monday Night football. Who wins
Speaker 3: this game?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: That's got your boys, that man, Hellen Moore versus.
Speaker 2: Bart. I agree, it's too early for that one. That's
Speaker 2: the time. But the Chargers winning the playoff game, he's
Speaker 2: got that. It's got to be a plush. They made
Speaker 2: the playoffs last year.
Speaker 3: Okay, we'll win a playoff game.
Speaker 2: Yeah, away fourteen should have one last seven. Blasphemy. You're
Speaker 2: a quarterback in the NFL. You only threw seventeen touchdowns,
Speaker 2: grand for five. You threw seventeen. Come on, man, like
Speaker 2: that's that's bad. Yeah, I don't like the way you're
Speaker 2: throwing that seventeen.
Speaker 6: I tell him, yeah, come come on, man, like you
Speaker 6: bouling up when looking at your own closet.
Speaker 2: But he didn't throw seventeen touchdowns. Come on, man, put numbers.
Speaker 2: I'm not bad. I'm not saying one game the interception
Speaker 2: isn't bad. He only played at twelve twelve. I'm backing,
Speaker 2: you know, But as a quarterback. Interception guy, he said
Speaker 2: he only threw seventeen touchdowns. All right, we got whatever, hey,
Speaker 2: young guy, you got how many quarterbacks? How many touchdowns

Speaker 2: about Danny Downs and his seventeen touchdowns. In that Ben
Speaker 2: were talking about three guys ain't want a playoff game?
Speaker 3: Is this what heck? He is like the dudes on
Speaker 3: the debate stage.

Speaker 2: it was. We're talking about Daniel Jones throwing seventeen touchdowns,
Speaker 2: and if we're going to base these quarterbacks off of
Speaker 2: us throwing the ball, then let's talk about another guy
Speaker 2: in the NFC easter it since we're much improved as
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones, he only threw twenty two. Who's touching these
Speaker 2: guys off how many they throw? I don't know anybody
Speaker 2: didn't watching football. He' talking about the know how you
Speaker 2: played it. The quarterback position can be different based off

Speaker 2: them Russians and twenty five are you are a rare
Speaker 2: air you You're on a whole nother level. That's what

Speaker 2: I want to hear it that we all waiting because
Speaker 2: I know what your bo no no, no, no, no
Speaker 2: no no thoughts on the cuts.
Speaker 3: Malik Davis's dahky what we thought, Sean McEwan, he's there,
Speaker 3: so we thought, we're not surprised to bull Cox is gone,
Speaker 3: right and he's now remember Washington to see him leave
Speaker 3: and he's now with the Colt.
Speaker 2: So I look at this, listen, you know, hold on
Speaker 2: wait so to see boss man fast gone and then
Speaker 2: traded that just showed this this is a they're good.
Speaker 2: They're good. They're good.
Speaker 3: Because when I was asking about him camp, you know,
Speaker 3: I'll here.
Speaker 2: Everybody everybody spoke up strongest battery ass, strong at battery ass.
Speaker 2: I was like, what does that mean? Twice?
Speaker 3: Hey, I thought he just make the team about they.
Speaker 2: Got you you know what? Yes, yes, that's why were
Speaker 2: trying to save Jerry.
Speaker 4: Out.
Speaker 3: I listened to I listened to it. Shouldn't listen to
Speaker 3: so so Kelvin Joseph traded traded. That's good by them,
Speaker 3: did they you know? But they had made all indications
Speaker 3: they was gonna keep this guy on here even though
Speaker 3: what we saw was giving up a lot of touchdowns.
Speaker 3: They moved them on, so good good on Will McClain
Speaker 3: that they got something for Kelvin Joseph.
Speaker 2: Do you think had they not found a trade for him,
Speaker 2: that they would have released them? It's a good question
Speaker 2: because I still believe that they would have. I still
Speaker 2: believe it would be made team because they did because
Speaker 2: they let c J go again to put them back
Speaker 2: on practice squad, and.
Speaker 6: That's the two beast that was the best teams players
Speaker 6: last year. So it was you know, c J and
Speaker 6: Kelvin Joseph.
Speaker 2: So my mind, I'm like, yeah, if they don't find
Speaker 2: a trade partner, I still think that he's what was
Speaker 2: what was the last straw though with with Joseph? Was
Speaker 2: it lining up outside? Was that it was that the
Speaker 2: final that was like, Okay, get on the phone, like
Speaker 2: let's find out right now if we could get some
Speaker 2: some value. You know.
Speaker 6: God, I think they checked them to be out there though,
Speaker 6: so I don't know, but it was it was a
Speaker 6: little surprising. It was surprising they must got some dogs
Speaker 6: on teams this year because I mean, well, both of
Speaker 6: the Tom Tom dudes and premier positions.
Speaker 2: You know, I think here which goes into the surprise
Speaker 2: that for me is the lifkey. You guys ended up
Speaker 2: being right with the four running back backs in three
Speaker 2: tight ends. But none of y'all guessed at all that
Speaker 2: it would have been lifty been because of that last game,
Speaker 2: Like was that that was the last game put put
Speaker 2: them on because I mean, I think they wanted to
Speaker 2: because they know they need a guy who could pass block,
Speaker 2: and I I think when they saw that he had
Speaker 2: the ability to do more than just that and be
Speaker 2: effective catching the ball out of the backfield, and then
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, not all of a sudden, but
Speaker 2: then Mike McCarthy has this this vision that he sees
Speaker 2: in him with cool right, you say, wait, hold on, wait,
Speaker 2: who can we've been talking about this. Who's going to
Speaker 2: be your past blocking guy right when you need it,
Speaker 2: when you need it, right third and eight. You need
Speaker 2: a guy who can get in there and pass block
Speaker 2: and then oh just not be a guy who's just
Speaker 2: gonna be sitting back there because you know he's gonna
Speaker 2: pass and not be able to get out and put
Speaker 2: pressure on people. It's lippy. But but early, early in
Speaker 2: Mike McCarthy's offense, you've seen him use the h back
Speaker 2: and maybe lippy serves h serves that as well, Uh,
Speaker 2: the flex a tight end also, So fourth like they
Speaker 2: got all that, all the stuff we talked about them
Speaker 2: needing of Hey, man, who's gonna be your goal line guy?
Speaker 2: When you line up on the goal line fourth to
Speaker 2: one and you can't spread it out to put Deuce
Speaker 2: vun or Tony Paulard in there, who's your guy? All right?
Speaker 2: At one point I was like, Trey Lance might be
Speaker 2: a guy who going to they put a package in
Speaker 2: for him. Why you got lipkey? That was surprising.
Speaker 6: All the whole time, I've never like because nobody ever
Speaker 6: talked about I didn't hear anything about this man all
Speaker 6: training camp, oh preseas all that's never heard anything, and
Speaker 6: all of a sudden boom.
Speaker 2: In the history of preseason, have you seen a guy
Speaker 2: like besides I guess Turpin be the last guy that
Speaker 2: makes a roster based off his performance in the last
Speaker 2: preseason game.
Speaker 3: If we take Mike at his word. He said he
Speaker 3: didn't have his fifty three set, and he said, these games.
Speaker 3: You want these games because somebody's gonna show you something.
Speaker 3: And then I go back to just what we've spoken
Speaker 3: about during training camp and having guys released. Do you
Speaker 3: feel like you can get the guy back if you
Speaker 3: put them out there? They thought, we'll put CJ out here,
Speaker 3: we think we can get CJ back. If we put
Speaker 3: Limpy out there, we don't think we'll get him back.
Speaker 3: And clearly Mike sees a role for him that's bigger
Speaker 3: than what we were true.
Speaker 2: And keeping it. Keeping Davis on practice squad to me
Speaker 2: is another move. Just they didn't let him go.
Speaker 3: Because you know, there's a lot of guys like Davis
Speaker 3: out there where teams have running backs they like who
Speaker 3: know the system and they feel comfortable with. So it
Speaker 3: worked out. He look, I think, I think, is there
Speaker 3: anybody out there that you said, boy, I wish they'd
Speaker 3: have kept that player.
Speaker 2: I'm bioused you. I won't see uls you gotta get him.
Speaker 2: But I mean, no, yeah, overall, not really. I was
Speaker 2: trying to think back to what what was Do you
Speaker 2: remember when Philip Tanner made the team, So I remember
Speaker 2: he had, he had two great games at the beginning
Speaker 2: of at the beginning of the season. I don't know
Speaker 2: was he on the bubble like that at the end
Speaker 2: or he had already been kind of solidified as the
Speaker 2: special team's guy. But I remember having one of those
Speaker 2: those training camps to where he was like, oh, he's playing, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: he's gonna play out of Middletitenancy. Not really high expectations
Speaker 2: for the guy, and then all of a sudden he
Speaker 2: gets out there and he gets some reps and you're like, yeah,
Speaker 2: he can spend a little bit. Yeah. I think that
Speaker 2: was it, man, Which is which is a positive?
Speaker 3: Chris Beam just said, Jesse.
Speaker 2: Holly, that's true. Yeah, Minnesota game.
Speaker 3: I once again, I I think we should trust Mike
Speaker 3: McCarthy and this scouting department and what the decisions they make. Like, okay,
Speaker 3: but at the end of the day, they keep finding players.
Speaker 3: And there was a stat that was out there they
Speaker 3: talked about there was like over eighty eighty NFL players
Speaker 3: that got their start with the Cowboys right now, So
Speaker 3: the Cowboys have been able to identify NFL players.
Speaker 2: It was a great job.
Speaker 3: While some of them are aren't with the team, they're
Speaker 3: they're across the league and other teams they have said,
Speaker 3: you know what, these guys can help us. So from
Speaker 3: a scouting standpoint, they are not getting.
Speaker 2: Were you guys. Let me ask this where you guys
Speaker 2: are not surprised about the linebackers. I mean going with
Speaker 2: only three linebackers. I was at Perst.
Speaker 6: I was surprised and I thought about it for a
Speaker 6: second and it was like, you know, you got a
Speaker 6: lot of safeties in here that with that position flex.
Speaker 6: I mean, you got a guy like Marquise Bell that
Speaker 6: can slide in there. Thomas as well, I think he
Speaker 6: has He's a bigger body guy that he can kind
Speaker 6: of do that versatile role as well. So but it's
Speaker 6: just I mean, now you get in trouble with that
Speaker 6: as well though, because if you if you primarily work
Speaker 6: out with just two tight ends, you kind of bring
Speaker 6: that safety in there to be a hybrid. That's where
Speaker 6: teams start to run it down your throat and you
Speaker 6: can get in trouble with that. So that was interesting
Speaker 6: just bringing in three linebackers.
Speaker 2: I thought that was in just defensive tackle in the
Speaker 2: first Hope, hope he can, Hope he can keep Keith's
Speaker 2: offensive lineman off those linebackers. But I'm excited to see
Speaker 2: thirty three play. Uh. I'm sure he'll be starting out
Speaker 2: there with with with Vandersch, so that's exciting. But back
Speaker 2: to that, I forgot my point on that one was
Speaker 2: lifty will probably be a core special teamer. Oh he
Speaker 2: has just based off what we saw. He looks like
Speaker 2: one of those sent Dayjo guys, right exactly. They don't care.
Speaker 2: You tell him runs straight and go tackle somebody, figure
Speaker 2: out how to work those lanes. He's gonna get out
Speaker 2: there and do it, so I can I expect him
Speaker 2: to be one of their core guys up there with
Speaker 2: with us CJ as well. It's end other.
Speaker 3: This is this is a good thing here. Jason over
Speaker 3: the Cap here says the Cowboys currently lead the NFL
Speaker 3: with being responsible for starting the career of eighty two
Speaker 3: players currently in the NFL. That's number one, Baltimore's number
Speaker 3: two seventy seven, Minnesota number three with seventy five. San
Speaker 3: Francisco was seventy four. New England is fifth with seventy one.
Speaker 3: The Colts come in six at seventy, the Rams with
Speaker 3: sixty nine, Green Bay with sixty eight. They are doing
Speaker 3: some really good work in that personnel department. And when
Speaker 3: you start looking your bottom teams, it's Vegas and Cincinnati
Speaker 3: with fifty four, Tennessee fifty five, Washington to fifty five
Speaker 3: as well. So hey, there you go.
Speaker 2: There you go. The heck of a job up top.
Speaker 3: All right, gentlemen, I guess next week we get it rolling.
Speaker 2: For sure, we get it roll then.
Speaker 3: Okay, so hecna, Danny, if we can think of anything
Speaker 3: else to add to the list of.
Speaker 2: Church that's a list, right then I'm gonna need y'all
Speaker 2: to get a list going on. But that's a list
Speaker 2: our job, you know what. I just want to say this.
Speaker 2: I don't appreciate how y'all making me feel like I
Speaker 2: took the show off the road.
Speaker 3: All good, it's all good.
Speaker 2: Appreciate we'll talk on Monday, everybody. I don't appreciate that. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I want to. I want to give a shout out
Speaker 2: to the women's sports Okay. I don't know if y'all
