And the Cowboys found out, or 0:02:07.120 --> 0:02:10.880 actually head coach Mike McCarthy found out this morning when 0:02:10.919 --> 0:02:13.679 he walked into the building it probably around five point 0:02:13.680 --> 0:02:16.080 thirty six in the morning, that he wasn't feeling well 0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:19.360 and went to see the Cowboys trainer, Jim Mauer, and 0:02:19.480 --> 0:02:22.720 they decided that to get to the doctor and they 0:02:22.840 --> 0:02:25.800 diagnosed him with acute appendicitis. 0:02:26.280 --> 0:02:29.520 And if you've ever had a cute appendicitis, it wasn't 0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:32.120 that he wasn't feeling well. There was something that was 0:02:32.240 --> 0:02:33.040 very painful. 0:02:33.760 --> 0:02:35.360 Sounds like Bill's been through this. 0:02:35.480 --> 0:02:38.560 Uh huh you have to Oh yeah, have you no? 0:02:38.840 --> 0:02:43.880 But I still got mine Sunday night games. My first 0:02:43.919 --> 0:02:47.560 game with the Giants was against Philadelphia. Oh it's crazy. 0:02:48.160 --> 0:02:51.640 And Plascelles had surgery. 0:02:51.280 --> 0:02:55.400 That morning and for appendicitis. 0:02:54.760 --> 0:03:00.520 Appendicitis, and he still came and coached. Yeah, he looked 0:03:00.560 --> 0:03:04.080 like crap, looked like you'll tell he was not the 0:03:04.120 --> 0:03:04.960 good move at the time. 0:03:05.000 --> 0:03:06.680 You know what happened to me? When I had a pendicided. 0:03:06.760 --> 0:03:08.640 So I was on the road trip. I was broadcasting 0:03:08.720 --> 0:03:11.280 Ranger games and it was in Saint Petersburg, Florida. 0:03:11.919 --> 0:03:12.320 I came. 0:03:13.560 --> 0:03:16.400 I came back from a morning jog and happened to 0:03:16.440 --> 0:03:20.480 see Pud Rodriguez in the elevator and he said to me, 0:03:20.680 --> 0:03:26.120 you're not looking goods. No, I wasn't feeling bad at 0:03:26.160 --> 0:03:27.680 that point. And then I got to my room and 0:03:27.720 --> 0:03:32.440 I started having having severe pain. But it was located 0:03:32.639 --> 0:03:36.480 up like in my sternham whatever and uh, and it 0:03:36.520 --> 0:03:40.040 didn't go away, and so I went to the hospital. 0:03:40.400 --> 0:03:42.760 H and Okay, I thought I was having a heart 0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:46.120 attack or something. And so I go to the hospital 0:03:46.600 --> 0:03:49.360 and they did a stressed est, they did all this stuff. 0:03:49.480 --> 0:03:53.120 It was because I that's what the Rangers trainer said, 0:03:53.160 --> 0:03:55.760 go to the hospital, tell him you're having chest pains. 0:03:55.800 --> 0:03:56.680 They'll get you right in. 0:03:57.640 --> 0:03:58.720 So they got me right in. 0:03:59.080 --> 0:04:02.120 It was I think it was. It may have been 0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:06.800 the next day they finally figured out it's my appendix. 0:04:06.360 --> 0:04:07.560 You were in pain for. 0:04:07.760 --> 0:04:10.400 Yes, I did a stress test with it and my 0:04:10.480 --> 0:04:14.600 appendix had burst. So I wound up spending a week 0:04:14.640 --> 0:04:18.520 in the hospital and two weeks before I was able 0:04:18.560 --> 0:04:21.159 to go back to work and it was bad. So 0:04:21.200 --> 0:04:24.560 I'm sitting there. Yeah, okay, you if they get it 0:04:24.600 --> 0:04:26.599 early enough, if you don't go to the hospital and 0:04:26.640 --> 0:04:28.120 say you got chess pains. 0:04:27.839 --> 0:04:30.200 And you you know, and they get. 0:04:30.040 --> 0:04:32.359 It early enough, you can you can be back at 0:04:32.400 --> 0:04:35.880 practice tomorrow or or in the case of ourselves have 0:04:36.320 --> 0:04:36.960 chest pains. 0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:39.880 Then you put you you're directing them in the wrong 0:04:39.920 --> 0:04:41.919 area though, that's right, and that's what took them so 0:04:42.000 --> 0:04:43.200 long to find it, right, right. 0:04:43.160 --> 0:04:46.800 Yeah, but because yours burst, you probably had a little 0:04:46.800 --> 0:04:48.479 bit longer of a Yes. 0:04:48.320 --> 0:04:50.640 I had infection and then yeah, so it was an 0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:54.120 infect it was an infection. And then I've spent a 0:04:54.120 --> 0:04:55.400 week in the hospital and say. 0:04:55.279 --> 0:05:00.480 You you Jimmy Smith. Yeah, Jimmy Smith, Cowboys wh receiver. 0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:05.159 His bursted and they they were treating him for I 0:05:05.200 --> 0:05:09.440 don't know what, but his appendix burst and he basically 0:05:09.680 --> 0:05:11.799 I think the rest of the season. 0:05:12.600 --> 0:05:16.840 So yours burst while they were misdiagnosing. 0:05:16.279 --> 0:05:18.960 Basically, Yes, I don't know when it burst, but it burst. 0:05:19.240 --> 0:05:19.840 That's crazy. 0:05:19.920 --> 0:05:23.400 Well, I found out the uh how they test you 0:05:23.440 --> 0:05:26.920 for it, because when I had like really bad side 0:05:26.960 --> 0:05:30.640 pains and I went to the emergency place across the 0:05:30.640 --> 0:05:33.440 street here and they started checking all this stuff and 0:05:34.560 --> 0:05:37.839 she's feeling around and and I'm going to this this 0:05:37.960 --> 0:05:40.360 my appendix because it was kind of on that side, 0:05:40.520 --> 0:05:44.160 and she pressed really hard where your appendix is? And 0:05:44.200 --> 0:05:48.000 she goes, no, it's not your appendix, because you would 0:05:48.040 --> 0:05:50.719 have jumped out of the bed after I pushed that hard. 0:05:50.880 --> 0:05:52.080 And it ended up being a kidney. 0:05:52.080 --> 0:05:55.279 So well, it's a thing that you don't even really need, right. 0:05:55.200 --> 0:05:57.200 No, parents, that's why is it there? 0:05:57.400 --> 0:06:03.600 Right? That's crazy that and a kid obviously so weird. 0:06:03.760 --> 0:06:08.360 So anyway, Uh, he's slated for surgery McCarthy this afternoon 0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:12.920 and should be released at the in the evening. 0:06:12.640 --> 0:06:14.240 And which means it's a scope. 0:06:14.560 --> 0:06:18.520 So basically yeah, and uh, you know from all what 0:06:18.680 --> 0:06:22.719 So Dan Quinn's stepped in for the press conference today 0:06:22.760 --> 0:06:28.279 and basically said that, you know, McCarthy expects to be 0:06:28.400 --> 0:06:32.880 good to go for the game. And I'm paraphrasing here, 0:06:32.960 --> 0:06:34.720 but I think his quote was, do you think this 0:06:34.800 --> 0:06:36.599 irishman's going to miss this game? 0:06:37.480 --> 0:06:38.080 Uh? 0:06:38.120 --> 0:06:42.080 And so, uh, they'll carry on without him for maybe 0:06:42.080 --> 0:06:45.080 a day, two days at the most. I bet he's back. 0:06:45.520 --> 0:06:46.840 Well, you know, they're not going to let you stay 0:06:46.839 --> 0:06:49.160 in the hospital on No, they try to get back 0:06:49.200 --> 0:06:50.200 to the hospital. 0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:51.960 Insurance don't want you to sleep. 0:06:53.080 --> 0:06:56.120 You haven't. Don't rest in the hospital, rest at home. 0:06:56.200 --> 0:07:00.840 So anyway, Quinn even said he'll probably be calm later 0:07:00.960 --> 0:07:04.520 tonight or watching watching tape or adding into to whatever 0:07:04.560 --> 0:07:05.960 they're doing today in practice. 0:07:06.240 --> 0:07:09.000 Well, and that's that's one of the significant things about this. 0:07:09.000 --> 0:07:11.960 This is the install day. I mean when the players 0:07:11.960 --> 0:07:14.600 get back today. You know, obviously Dak has been at 0:07:14.640 --> 0:07:17.200 it probably I mean the last couple of days for sure. 0:07:17.760 --> 0:07:22.120 But for when when you're the offensive coordinator or the 0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:25.320 play caller in this case, Brian Schottenheim or the offensive coordinator, 0:07:25.360 --> 0:07:28.120 you're heavily involved in the install today. 0:07:28.680 --> 0:07:32.240 And but everything's been planned out all right, right, so 0:07:32.360 --> 0:07:36.120 now Brian Schottenheimer just kind of runs the offensive practice. 0:07:36.600 --> 0:07:39.480 What you worry about is just being ready to call 0:07:39.600 --> 0:07:42.200 plays on Sunday. And I was getting ready to ask 0:07:42.280 --> 0:07:44.920 you did you have a coach miss a game or 0:07:45.000 --> 0:07:45.800 miss a practice? 0:07:46.160 --> 0:07:48.520 So you just told you didn't. He didn't miss anything, Yeah, 0:07:48.640 --> 0:07:49.080 he didn't. 0:07:49.080 --> 0:07:52.000 What about Tom? Did Tom ever get sick and missing Tom? 0:07:55.080 --> 0:07:57.520 Break never missed the practice, they were. 0:07:57.400 --> 0:08:02.000 Trying to shoot at him. Tom wasn't. They don't make 0:08:02.000 --> 0:08:03.320 them like that anymore. 0:08:04.240 --> 0:08:09.200 So anyway, And so this is kind of ironic, but 0:08:09.720 --> 0:08:13.360 I was going to come in today. I did a 0:08:13.400 --> 0:08:18.920 little bit of research on the longest active winning streaks 0:08:18.920 --> 0:08:22.760 in the NFL right now, and it's basically four straight. 0:08:23.760 --> 0:08:29.680 It's it's the Cowboys, Indianapolis, and San Francisco active, right, 0:08:30.120 --> 0:08:33.120 And I was thinking, you know, winning streaks in the 0:08:33.200 --> 0:08:40.000 NFL so many factors, cause whatever, Right, It's like there's 0:08:40.000 --> 0:08:42.600 always something. It might be playing on the road, it 0:08:42.679 --> 0:08:46.760 might be weather, it might be injuries I didn't think of. 0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:50.520 It might be the head coach a pendicitis attack, right, 0:08:50.559 --> 0:08:54.800 But it seems like always something. The longest one this 0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:58.560 year winning streak was six games by Kansas City and 0:08:58.600 --> 0:09:02.080 then Denver, and then there were six teams including Philadelphia 0:09:02.080 --> 0:09:06.120 twice with five game winning streaks, and now the longest 0:09:06.200 --> 0:09:10.000 active is the Cowboys with four. And Bill, you know, 0:09:10.040 --> 0:09:13.880 when we were talking about after the loss to the 0:09:13.960 --> 0:09:16.079 Eagles the first time, it's like, okay, they got to 0:09:16.120 --> 0:09:18.520 win four straight. Bill said, well, they got to win 0:09:18.600 --> 0:09:21.200 five straight, right, So think about it, even if they 0:09:21.280 --> 0:09:23.680 win five straight They're not out of. 0:09:23.679 --> 0:09:27.240 The woods, right, And I kept following up with Bill 0:09:27.760 --> 0:09:30.640 saying that it's going to be down the stretch all 0:09:30.640 --> 0:09:30.960 the way. 0:09:31.040 --> 0:09:34.600 So think about it. What everybody's asking is, Okay, beat 0:09:34.640 --> 0:09:37.280 the Eagles and then win your next what four games? 0:09:38.120 --> 0:09:41.160 Nine straight? Twelve straight? 0:09:41.840 --> 0:09:42.120 Tough? 0:09:42.360 --> 0:09:45.440 And you still might have to go on the road 0:09:45.679 --> 0:09:47.120 if you make the championship game. 0:09:47.120 --> 0:09:52.720 Right, So yeah, it's a tough stretch for them after 0:09:52.840 --> 0:09:55.520 having won this many games? Can you win another one? 0:09:55.640 --> 0:09:59.720 Five straight? Right? And then whoa what about the next 0:09:59.760 --> 0:10:03.000 two that we talked about that or on the road. 0:10:04.120 --> 0:10:08.400 So yeah, the odds are not with you winning that 0:10:08.520 --> 0:10:11.440 many straight in this game. And then this happened today, 0:10:11.480 --> 0:10:14.440 and I'm going maybe I was clairvoyant, you know. 0:10:17.000 --> 0:10:17.439 You know what. 0:10:17.760 --> 0:10:21.560 And one of the reasons I said five straight, besides 0:10:21.559 --> 0:10:23.600 the fact that Philadelphia happened to be the fifth straight, 0:10:24.240 --> 0:10:27.400 is I had done this research before. In previous seasons 0:10:27.920 --> 0:10:31.280 when the Cowboys have won Super Bowls, They've always had 0:10:31.559 --> 0:10:35.040 a stretch during the season where they've won at least 0:10:35.160 --> 0:10:39.680 five straight games, it seems like, right, And I'm just 0:10:39.720 --> 0:10:41.840 now going back through it. The first time they won 0:10:41.880 --> 0:10:43.600 the Super Bowl in seventy one, it was ten in 0:10:43.640 --> 0:10:46.360 a row to win the super Bowl and included the 0:10:46.360 --> 0:10:51.319 Super Bowl game. In seventy seven they started the season 0:10:51.440 --> 0:10:56.680 with four, five, six, seven. They were what seven or 0:10:56.679 --> 0:10:59.360 eight in a row to start the season there, ninety two, 0:10:59.440 --> 0:11:02.959 ninety three, I did say in ninety five, I think 0:11:02.960 --> 0:11:05.960 it was four games. They had two or three four 0:11:06.000 --> 0:11:09.480 game win streaks, including but they had a five game 0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:12.000 win streak which included the Super Bowl that year. 0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:14.440 And even go to ninety one when they finished the 0:11:14.480 --> 0:11:18.040 season on a five game to get into the playoffs. 0:11:18.080 --> 0:11:22.880 And I could always remember Tom Landry saying, I want 0:11:22.920 --> 0:11:26.599 my team streaking into the playoffs. You don't want to 0:11:26.640 --> 0:11:29.800 go in limping and having losses. And this was before 0:11:30.360 --> 0:11:33.560 teams qualified, and then the last game of the season 0:11:33.800 --> 0:11:35.760 they would blow off. I don't think there was any 0:11:35.840 --> 0:11:38.880 games blown off in the sixties, seventies and eighties. 0:11:39.360 --> 0:11:42.080 What would you think? Which team would you think was 0:11:42.160 --> 0:11:46.040 Jimmy's best team? Ninety two? Did they have a streak 0:11:46.080 --> 0:11:46.840 going in ninety two? 0:11:47.720 --> 0:11:49.880 Actually it might have been ninety three. 0:11:50.040 --> 0:11:51.040 It probably was ninety three. 0:11:51.840 --> 0:11:55.719 Least they lost the first two, then they won the 0:11:56.120 --> 0:12:01.599 next seven, and then they lost the two Sunday Thanksgiving, 0:12:02.040 --> 0:12:04.600 and he basically told them we got to win the 0:12:04.720 --> 0:12:08.280 last however many games, five games in a row to 0:12:08.480 --> 0:12:12.560 get home field advantage. And remember they didn't win the 0:12:12.640 --> 0:12:16.640 last one until overtime against the Giants. Just win the division. 0:12:17.200 --> 0:12:20.320 Here's what happened in ninety three. I spoke to So 0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:22.160 ninety three was their better team. 0:12:21.960 --> 0:12:24.440 Okay, don't you think? Yes? Seven? 0:12:24.800 --> 0:12:27.800 Okay, they went to zero to two without Emmett and 0:12:27.840 --> 0:12:32.400 then seven in a row, seven okay. And then Thanksgiving 0:12:32.440 --> 0:12:35.960 Week they lost that game at Atlanta twenty seven to fourteen, 0:12:36.160 --> 0:12:38.880 and then the leon Lett game on Thanksgiving Day against 0:12:38.920 --> 0:12:40.680 Miami in the sixteen to fourteen. 0:12:40.880 --> 0:12:45.280 That's not fair. And then and then that is not cool, 0:12:45.800 --> 0:12:49.200 you know, just like castling through him under the bus man. 0:12:51.200 --> 0:12:59.319 The Cowboys lost that game and won. 0:12:58.960 --> 0:12:59.680 Was it the catch? 0:13:01.880 --> 0:13:05.840 Yeah? 0:13:05.880 --> 0:13:10.199 So it was five straight in the regular season. Basically, 0:13:10.280 --> 0:13:12.000 they ended with an eight game win streak to win 0:13:12.040 --> 0:13:12.520 the Super Bowl. 0:13:12.520 --> 0:13:14.320 And if he was a jockey, he went to the 0:13:14.360 --> 0:13:18.280 whip over those last five games. And I remember Darryl 0:13:18.360 --> 0:13:22.679 Johnson telling me after that whole streak and the Super Bowl, 0:13:23.120 --> 0:13:28.040 he said, Jimmy Drovis as hard as anybody could imagine 0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:31.160 and I don't know if he could ever do that again. 0:13:31.600 --> 0:13:32.640 And when he told me. 0:13:32.640 --> 0:13:35.080 That, it was like because he pulled out all the 0:13:35.160 --> 0:13:39.120 tricks right to drive him and then he stepped away 0:13:39.280 --> 0:13:42.640 basically right. His five years were up and him and 0:13:42.720 --> 0:13:45.800 Jerry had the little deal. But again, I think there 0:13:45.920 --> 0:13:49.880 was some some doubt on he coached us so hard, 0:13:49.960 --> 0:13:51.800 how's he going to come back and do it again? 0:13:52.400 --> 0:13:57.520 Right? Well, I wondered, do they get too tired winning, 0:13:57.559 --> 0:13:59.640 you know, trying to win this you keep the streak 0:13:59.679 --> 0:14:02.400 going the regular season and then once you got left 0:14:02.400 --> 0:14:04.960 for the playoffs. That's kind of what you worry about 0:14:04.960 --> 0:14:08.240 a little bit with with any team. And with that team. 0:14:08.400 --> 0:14:10.680 Did they end up with home field advantage in ninety. 0:14:10.480 --> 0:14:14.360 Three, Yes, but only because they won the division and 0:14:14.400 --> 0:14:16.400 then it ended up with a twelve and. 0:14:17.400 --> 0:14:21.840 Twelve Well, I guess it was ninety two they went, 0:14:22.920 --> 0:14:24.480 they went to San fran and one. 0:14:24.720 --> 0:14:27.640 Yes, the NFC title game. 0:14:28.000 --> 0:14:31.560 Which is ninety two is my favorite, and they went 0:14:31.600 --> 0:14:33.240 thirteen and three in the last season. 0:14:33.720 --> 0:14:37.360 It's hard to say which one is better, right, but 0:14:37.440 --> 0:14:40.640 they were better than ninety five, yes, those two years, 0:14:40.720 --> 0:14:45.160 I think, But yeah, so so well, what happened in 0:14:45.200 --> 0:14:45.880 eighty one. 0:14:46.920 --> 0:14:49.000 Did you guys finds a question with a question? 0:14:49.080 --> 0:14:53.280 A winning streak at the eighty one eighty one It 0:14:53.640 --> 0:14:58.160 was four straight to start the season, then two losses 0:14:58.720 --> 0:15:01.880 Saint Louis and San franc Us Go two road losses, 0:15:02.320 --> 0:15:09.400 and then four straight, then a loss at Detroit four straight, 0:15:10.560 --> 0:15:13.880 then a lost in the season in overtime at the Giants, 0:15:14.320 --> 0:15:16.680 and then see that's why you didn't win the Super 0:15:16.680 --> 0:15:18.600 Bowl had nothing to do with the catch. You didn't 0:15:18.640 --> 0:15:20.480 have a five game win streak. You only had four 0:15:20.480 --> 0:15:21.240 game win streaks. 0:15:21.680 --> 0:15:26.120 If San Fran was San Fran able to I mean, 0:15:26.120 --> 0:15:30.080 well they already they had. That was we have overcome twelve. Okay, 0:15:30.160 --> 0:15:33.640 so because we we we lost the tipebreaker. Yeah, you didn't, right, 0:15:33.760 --> 0:15:38.840 I don't think we went again. The Giants game didn't 0:15:38.840 --> 0:15:42.080 mean anything. The Giants game meant nothing. 0:15:41.840 --> 0:15:43.920 To us, and that was because they already had. 0:15:44.240 --> 0:15:46.720 I think we were mad because we went into overtime, like, 0:15:46.760 --> 0:15:49.640 come on, make can we get out of here? It's 0:15:49.680 --> 0:15:51.600 an overtime and it didn't mean anything to it, right, 0:15:51.720 --> 0:15:52.320 I remember that. 0:15:52.400 --> 0:15:54.400 And then the next week you took on Doug Williams 0:15:54.480 --> 0:15:56.640 and Tampa Bay and there's thirty eight eleven. 0:15:56.960 --> 0:15:59.880 Dennis Thurman's game. Yeah, pick six. 0:16:00.360 --> 0:16:03.080 How many playoffs games did they have to win to 0:16:03.120 --> 0:16:05.120 get to the one? Just one? 0:16:05.280 --> 0:16:08.520 And then you're in. Yeah, we couldn't have that last 0:16:08.520 --> 0:16:10.880 game against the Giants didn't mean anything. Yeah, yeah, so 0:16:10.920 --> 0:16:11.840 that would have been a five game. 0:16:13.880 --> 0:16:14.760 Just rewrote history. 0:16:15.600 --> 0:16:16.120 All right. 0:16:16.320 --> 0:16:19.040 So that is the news of the day right now. 0:16:19.080 --> 0:16:22.200 And we've got a football team on a football field 0:16:22.280 --> 0:16:23.400 that Mickey. 0:16:23.240 --> 0:16:25.040 Has went out their football coach. 0:16:25.120 --> 0:16:28.240 That's right.

He escapes left. He'll run for a perstown. 0:16:40.200 --> 0:16:42.680 Just like football, when it comes to crypto, it's important 0:16:42.680 --> 0:16:45.360 to have a team you can trust.

Sean McEwan was placed on injured reserve 0:19:06.080 --> 0:19:11.119 and Peyton Hendershot was activated off of IR to the 0:19:11.240 --> 0:19:16.480 fifty three man roster, and Matt will Let's go opened 0:19:16.560 --> 0:19:21.399 up his twenty one day window to begin practicing.

He has 0:19:33.840 --> 0:19:34.199 he's not. 0:19:34.480 --> 0:19:35.040 Oh he's not. 0:19:35.320 --> 0:19:36.439 There's a lot of speculation. 0:19:36.720 --> 0:19:40.159 Well, you know what the new speculation. The new speculation 0:19:40.359 --> 0:19:45.959 is the Domakon sue. They're thinking about signing him and 0:19:46.000 --> 0:19:47.800 he hasn't played all year. 0:19:47.960 --> 0:19:51.320 They don't have enough big defensive tackles on their defense 0:19:51.400 --> 0:19:54.720 that I haven't drafted well in the first round. Thee 0:19:54.880 --> 0:19:56.760 out of Georgia. The last couple of weeks were. 0:19:56.560 --> 0:19:59.080 The scores of their last two games, because I thought 0:19:59.080 --> 0:20:02.560 I read something that they given up like seventy six points. 0:20:02.560 --> 0:20:06.679 Well, they gave up forty two, forty nine ers and 0:20:06.760 --> 0:20:09.360 they gave up thirty four to the Buffalo Bills. 0:20:10.480 --> 0:20:12.240 How much to us is that seventy six? 0:20:12.920 --> 0:20:14.040 That would be seventy six? 0:20:14.240 --> 0:20:15.000 How much to us? 0:20:15.560 --> 0:20:17.680 And I meant the last two games. 0:20:18.040 --> 0:20:20.359 And it was the Cowboy game up there was twenty 0:20:20.359 --> 0:20:21.360 eight twenty three three. 0:20:22.200 --> 0:20:26.080 So it's almost like they're trying to pick two more touchdowns, yeah, right, 0:20:26.160 --> 0:20:28.360 or two and a two point one and a two 0:20:28.359 --> 0:20:33.800 point conversion. Yeah, they're just picking up everybody. But again, 0:20:33.840 --> 0:20:35.960 somebody said, well, how do they have the cap space? Well, 0:20:36.000 --> 0:20:38.200 you only got to pay the guy for five games. 0:20:38.800 --> 0:20:42.840 So you know, when they said they signed Leonard to 0:20:42.960 --> 0:20:45.240 a one year deal. Well, it's a five good. 0:20:45.280 --> 0:20:48.879 Let me ask you this about Shack Leonard because I 0:20:49.000 --> 0:20:51.919 was doing a podcast with a guy in Philadelphia this 0:20:52.000 --> 0:20:56.119 morning and we were talking about Shaq Leonard. And I'll 0:20:56.160 --> 0:20:59.320 tell you how I answered this question after you tell 0:20:59.359 --> 0:21:03.360 me how you would answer it. Where does Shaq Leonard 0:21:03.440 --> 0:21:07.120 fit in right now on this Cowboys team? Like their 0:21:07.160 --> 0:21:12.160 speculation that Okay, in Philadelphia, with what they've had going 0:21:12.200 --> 0:21:15.439 on at linebacker right now, Nick Morrow and Christian Ellis 0:21:15.480 --> 0:21:18.240 with their two linebackers in the game against San Francisco 0:21:18.359 --> 0:21:22.119 last week, we saw how that went, that that he 0:21:22.160 --> 0:21:24.800 would be able to step on the field and pretty 0:21:24.840 --> 0:21:27.919 much get snaps immediately. Okay, what do you how do 0:21:27.960 --> 0:21:30.960 you think if he had signed with Dallas, what do 0:21:31.000 --> 0:21:33.400 you think the scenario would have been as far as 0:21:33.480 --> 0:21:36.840 how many snaps he gets on defense this week and 0:21:36.920 --> 0:21:38.520 in the next couple of weeks after that. 0:21:40.760 --> 0:21:44.280 Well, I was told it would be more of a 0:21:44.359 --> 0:21:50.000 depth move and that it would be spotted on maybe 0:21:50.080 --> 0:21:53.920 how the offense, what kind of formation they're in. 0:21:54.720 --> 0:21:57.840 Uh that if he win sub packages. 0:21:57.560 --> 0:21:59.359 Sub packages exactly? 0:21:59.560 --> 0:22:02.320 I agree, I agree, And that's how I answered it. 0:22:02.400 --> 0:22:06.320 I said, you know, they've got the Cowboys have Demone 0:22:06.320 --> 0:22:10.480
