14
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 1: good one. The only guy I can think of is

15
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: Brian Baldinger. Brian Baldinger played for the Cowboys. Yeah anywhere

16
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 1: sixty two, the one that does the tape break. Yeah.

17
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 1: I had no idea he played for the Cowboys. Yeah, oh,

18
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 1: no questioning, No, he did in the eighties. He was

19
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,960
Speaker 1: like their lineman sixty two. I'm probably like played, I

20
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 1: don't know, eighty three, eighty four, eighty five. I just

21
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 1: I know him from the stuff he does for NFL Network,

22
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: But I didn't know that he would play for the Cowboys.

23
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 1: Yeah he did. He didn't. I can't think he's any good. No,

24
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:33,679
Speaker 1: I mean not really. I don't think he played for

25
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 1: that long. You're right in the middle. Five years six yeah,

26
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 1: five years with the Cowboys with the Cowboys, Yeah, eighty

27
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 1: this is it's not a lot of sixty. This is

28
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 1: a this is a Marco Rivera. Yeah, good job. Yeah,

29
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: Parcels was all over that signing and that didn't work out.

30
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: He hurt his back and hurt his back in his

31
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 1: first week here. It was. Yeah, it was one of

32
00:01:54,800 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 1: the bad ones. John Fitzgerald, Yeah he was a good player. Seventies. Yeah.

33
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: I just picture like older fans just like, come on,

34
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 1: you don't know the answer. Yeah, but like currently, oh

35
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 1: to sixty two is the guy. I'm just like, okay,

36
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 1: he'll be cut like sixty sixty. There he's wearing sixty.

37
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: All I could think it was Braylon Jones this year.

38
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 1: I think the Houston, Houston Guard Center. I think he's

39
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 1: still he's still here. I think he just thinks two's

40
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: on the practice squad. The water Boy, a movie you

41
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 1: probably never seen. Okay, yeah, he wore sixty two. No, no,

42
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 1: but he gets poked in the eye or something, or

43
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 1: somebody said one the other team, and he was just

44
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: like sixty two and he just goes and just like

45
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 1: annihilates him. It's good. It's a good, good movie. No,

46
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: not a good better than Hoosiers and Adam Sandler movie.

47
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,639
Speaker 1: What you told me Hoosiers is one. I should watch

48
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:58,520
Speaker 1: Hoosiers and water Boy. No, they're not the same. It's

49
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 1: a different type of thing. It's like, no one in

50
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 1: no one's gone out and bought the water Boys soundtrack.

51
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 1: You know who's your sound I'm sure people. Nick and

52
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 1: all of his closest friends can quote Hoosiers from beginning

53
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: to end. And he spends all of his time with

54
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 1: the only two guys who have never seen it. It's okay,

55
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 1: it's okay. It's an older it's an older movie. It's

56
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 1: a it's a good movie. You know, it's funny, it's

57
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:22,679
Speaker 1: a great movie. You know, we always are like two

58
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 1: America's why why is it quite often Dave ends up

59
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: in my America then in your America? Like it's kind

60
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 1: of interesting. I saw this on Twitter last night. I

61
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: was like, there was one of those moments. I was like,

62
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: Dave's in my America for some reason. Like, I mean, look,

63
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 1: I am, I can be very painfully white. Okay, I

64
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 1: just want to make that clear, but really funny. I

65
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 1: grew up in New Orleans, Louisiana, so I got a

66
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: little bit of both. You know, I don't know, I

67
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 1: don't know what to say. You okay, are you okay?

68
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 1: You got him with this thing, like, yeah, I wasn't

69
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 1: ready for that one. I've said this a lot, and

70
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 1: I have another friend that's that's this way, But Dave

71
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: is one of the few people that I know him.

72
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 1: I mean, I feel like I know a lot about

73
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 1: some things like Cowboy jerseys or Super Bowls, final four

74
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: is whatever. Dave is one of those people that knows

75
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: a lot about a lot, and that is very very impressive.

76
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: I'm very well rounded. Yeah, I mean, if you could

77
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 1: probably hang in there and talk politics with you today

78
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 1: and stuff that's going on and all that, yeah, I've

79
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 1: had some those, right, you know. And then but then

80
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,480
Speaker 1: he knows you know a lot of sports stuff too,

81
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 1: rapp movies stuff, all that kind of stuff. The key

82
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 1: to it literally, anytime I'm curious about something, I just

83
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 1: go down to Wikipedia wormhole. I did it last night.

84
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 1: I found it doing the crossword puzzle and you were cheating. Well,

85
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,840
Speaker 1: I also I do a lot of crosswords too, But no,

86
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,039
Speaker 1: like I'll just I'll hear something be like I don't

87
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,600
Speaker 1: know anything about that, like some I saw a video

88
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 1: the other day about some random like castle in Scotland

89
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 1: and I was like, I've never heard of that. Where

90
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,160
Speaker 1: is that? Google it. Forty minutes later, I'm into like

91
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,839
Speaker 1: five different articles. Don't even remember why I googled it.

92
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 1: I'd probably do that twice a day, you know, And

93
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: that's why. Yeah, well I shouldn't tell my boss that,

94
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 1: but I don't as long as I'm doing it at work.

95
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:14,160
Speaker 1: Depends on the day. Maybe in the off season. You know.

96
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,600
Speaker 1: I almost was about to say something like that's a

97
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:18,919
Speaker 1: good thing. There's not. We're not playing like this. You know,

98
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,160
Speaker 1: great team, great game coming up. But you know what

99
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 1: we get. We get a lot of people on Twitter

100
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 1: that say to us, they appreciate this, Yeah, they liked

101
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 1: this stuff. They like talking about college football. You know

102
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 1: what it is? Those are the people that have that

103
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 1: essentially live with us and what I mean by that

104
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 1: is they are with us every day throughout the season,

105
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,919
Speaker 1: in the off season. They've been doing this for years,

106
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 1: so to them, it's just like sitting around with friends

107
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 1: having conversation and just listening to the conversation. So it

108
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:47,719
Speaker 1: works for them. It's the people that came in for

109
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 1: the first time and like, let me check out this

110
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: thing called the Cowboys break and then they hear us

111
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 1: talking a minute six and we haven't said anything about

112
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 1: for you guys, we apologize, you'll get you. The one

113
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 1: thing we've said about the Cowboys so far is that

114
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,600
Speaker 1: we can't think of anybody who wore sixty two. By

115
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,679
Speaker 1: the way, Tony Tilbert or to Tilbert or for minute,

116
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 1: we're coming in with some names. No, he wore it

117
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 1: in that Darren Woodson were forty five, Jason Witten were

118
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 1: forty nine. Type thing like Okay, we don't know if

119
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 1: you're gonna be a good player. We're gonna you're not

120
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 1: gonna get a nineties yet. And then you start, you

121
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 1: start bawling out, and and real quick I gotta figure

122
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: out I didn't even know what movie I haven't seen that.

123

Speaker 1: Everybody was like, oh my god, you gotta we gotta

124
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 1: figure that out. Well, you haven't seen anything that came

125
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,159
Speaker 1: out before like nineteen seventy five, So I've never actually

126
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 1: seen anything. I've never seen a movie in my life

127
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 1: that it's older than me, right ever, really, I mean,

00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,359
Speaker 1: the horse's head in the bed or something like that.

132
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 1: That's all. That's all I know. Cassablanca, like the most

137
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 1: same thing for him. But it's all the same thing

138
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:07,039
Speaker 1: that stuff used to bother me. And now I'm just like,

00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: got their own thing. I don't care if you've seen it,

141
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 1: if you don't care, and we can just move on

142
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: with our lives. Yeah, all right, let's talk some Cowboys football. No,

143
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:19,880

144
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,560

145

Speaker 1: host of The Break from a long time ago when

146
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: we were still young man Nick, I think, yeah, we

147
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 1: were really young, younger, much much younger. But Deal Wall

154
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 1: in the second segment, and we're going to uh, I

155
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: can't take a stroll down memory lane. She'll te U

156
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 1: a little bit about what's happening now in Kansas City

157
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 1: as well as we prepare for our trip out there

158
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 1: this weekend. But before we get to that, though I

159
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 1: did want to, I had a topic I wanted to

160
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 1: hit it. I think we're gonna have to take a

161
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 1: little bit more time on so I'm gonna go to

162
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 1: my secondary topic right now because I only got a

163
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 1: few minutes before we go to our first break. I

164
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: was interested yesterday that Jordan Lewis was a topic of

165
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: discussion with a lot of the coaches who talked to

166
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 1: McCarthy talked about him, Dan quinn talked about it, and

167
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 1: they said things like he's competitive and aggressive. They said

168
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 1: he's excellent quickness and tackling and that's important for a

169
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 1: slot guy. Said he was down for any challenge, way

170
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 1: past scrappy was the part I really loved that. They said.

171
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 1: My question for you guys is this year we've seen

172
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 1: you know when you think about it, Antonio, I mean,

173
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Anthony Brown has been really good at the

174
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 1: opposite corner from Treyvon Diggs. You got Jordan Lewis was

175
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: playing a really nice had a really nice game this week.

176
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,200
Speaker 1: It's played pretty good this season. In a year like this,

177
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,199
Speaker 1: where the Cowboys went all in last year in the

178
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 1: draft with cornerbacks, how much do you think it's setting

179
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 1: back those guys and their ability to be able to

180
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: get on the field and start trying to figure this

181
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,839
Speaker 1: thing out. Because these guys are playing so well and

182
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 1: the likelihood is that at least one of them, maybe

183
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,560
Speaker 1: both of them won't be back next year. That's a

184
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 1: long question, a question, and I know that's one of

185
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:18,080
Speaker 1: your pet beeves, So I mean, my first thought, honestly

186
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:22,199
Speaker 1: was like I don't care like like because the fact

187
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 1: that these guys are playing playing well. I mean, so

188
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 1: I don't think it matters if Kelvin Joseph's getting set

189
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 1: back or Nashan Ryde or whatever, just because you know,

190
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 1: these other guys are playing well and and and that's

191
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 1: they're they're they're making plays. I think it's a lot

192
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 1: of it has to do with the scheme. I think

193
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 1: the past rush has been good. It's helping these guys

194
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 1: that they're they're seeing the ball, everything's staying in front

195
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:46,319
Speaker 1: of them, they're making plays on the ball. I think

196
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 1: Joseph would probably you know, he's not too far from

197
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 1: getting out there and playing. I don't think it. He

198
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 1: is getting some playing, he's getting he's getting some you know,

199
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,920
Speaker 1: second round, third round picks. You want them to contribute,

200
00:09:58,040 --> 00:09:59,839
Speaker 1: you don't. You don't have to be on the field

201
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:01,679
Speaker 1: right now. If it was your first round pick. You know,

202
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:05,320
Speaker 1: if they would have drafted Horn, you know, or certain

203
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,839
Speaker 1: and they weren't as good as Anthony Brown or Jordan Lewis,

204
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,640
Speaker 1: then that would be weird kind of and you know,

205
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: but I don't think it's that big of a problem

206
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: right now. I'd love the question because it makes me

207
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:20,080
Speaker 1: feel smart because you can go finding the tape as

208
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 1: soon as as soon as Horn and Certan went off

209
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: the board. This is what you were signing up for.

210
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,680
Speaker 1: This is the likelihood. We said it all summer. I

211
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be hard for these guys to beat

212
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,080
Speaker 1: out three veterans who've done this for a long time,

213
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 1: who the team has already invested in. And injury played

214
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,319
Speaker 1: a role in that. Kelvin was unavailable for a while.

215
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 1: But lo and behold, that's exactly what happened. And yeah,

216
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 1: I'm not going to go as far as to say

217
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:47,199
Speaker 1: I don't care, but the train keeps rolling, like once

218
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 1: the season starts develop especially if I mean, if you're

219
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 1: bad and you know you're building for the future, that matters.

220
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 1: But trying to accomplish something here, I don't have time

221
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 1: to worry, especially especially if it's outside of a first

222
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 1: round pick. I mean, Tristan Hill didn't do anything his

223
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:08,440
Speaker 1: first year. Cheeto, Cheeto, Well, he got hurt. He got hurt.

224
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 1: Cheeto and Jordan had limited roles as rookies. Injury was

225
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 1: part of that too, but they it took them time

226
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 1: to get on the field on a consistent basis. Um shoot. Obviously,

227
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 1: Jalen and Randy are unique circumstances, but again, you're never guaranteed.

228
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 1: The further back you go in the draft, your first

229
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 1: round pick needs to be doing something. Everything else is

230
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 1: dependent on the circumstances. And for that matter, I don't

231
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,679
Speaker 1: even know Jordan and maybe don't have to go anywhere

232
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 1: next year. They're on affordable contracts. Abe he's got one

233
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 1: more year left on his deal. Jordan will have two.

234
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 1: So I have no problem with it whatsoever. And sorry, Nick,

235
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:46,559
Speaker 1: I want to ask why, why? Why do you think? Yeah,

236
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 1: why does this? Bob? Here's the thing. What I'm what

237
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:50,679
Speaker 1: I'm concerned about it. I don't know that honestly, there

238
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:52,559
Speaker 1: is no real answer. You're right, once you get into

239
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 1: the season, you play the best player, you don't worry

240
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 1: about all that. But I do wonder if it affects

241
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,559
Speaker 1: their decision making once you get to the offseason, because

242
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:01,160
Speaker 1: in the A so they got to make a decision

243
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 1: on those two guys, on on Jordan and on and

244
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 1: on Brown, and they got to make a decision. And

245
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 1: it's one of those things where it's like, I don't know,

246
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 1: are these guys ready to step into that role? If

247
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 1: we decide not to sign them, or why do you

248
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,439
Speaker 1: have to make a decision to make a decision? You

249
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 1: don't I thought one, neither one of them is out

250
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 1: of contract. No, they both have signed three They signed

251
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 1: the same deal. Yeah, Ab signed it in twenty twenty

252
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,319
Speaker 1: and Jordan signed it in twenty twenty one. So how

253
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 1: long they have left on their due? Ab will have

254
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 1: one more year when this season is over and Jordan

255
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:31,559
Speaker 1: will have to Okay, So which now is there something

256
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 1: to be said for you could try to cut costs

257
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,080
Speaker 1: and get rid of those contracts to help you sign

258
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 1: the Randy's and the Schultzs and the Gallops. And maybe

259
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:40,319
Speaker 1: that's the way I'm thinking about it, is like you

260
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 1: got a lot of decisions to make and you can't

261
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 1: keep everybody. So is that they become capsually? But the

262
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 1: questions you can't make that decision if the other guys

263
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 1: aren't playing enough for you to know what you have

264
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 1: with them, right, Yeah, I just I can't bring myself

265
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 1: to care about this because and again, their their average

266
00:12:57,960 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 1: salary comes out to like four and a half five

267
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:01,680
Speaker 1: million a year, which would be great if you could

268
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 1: get cheaper, but it's also not a big enough number

269
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,679
Speaker 1: to keep you from accomplishing other things. So it's just

270
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 1: not something I'm losing a lot of sleep about. I've

271
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,439
Speaker 1: said this before too, and not trying to write off

272
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 1: Kelvin or Nishan, right, I'm actually I'm pleased with what

273
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 1: they've both been able to do given the circumstances. Right,

274
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,080
Speaker 1: we knew he was super raw. He has a role

275
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 1: which he hasn't been inactive this season, which is a

276
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,840
Speaker 1: win in my opinion. Kelvin, he's doing more and more.

277
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 1: He's gotten to play defense in late game stages two

278
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:34,439
Speaker 1: weeks in a row. He's been pretty impressive on special teams,

279
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 1: honestly for a guy that didn't do it in college.

280
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 1: So I feel good about them. But again, you just

281
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: talk about draft capital, and the reason this came up

282
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: is because LSU has a cornerback coming out named Derek Stingley.

283
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 1: I was like, if for some reason he falls to

284
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 1: where the Cowboys pick, I would draft him. I don't care.

285
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 1: You worry about that stuff later when you have a

286
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 1: high for Trump. It's a curious circumstance. He hasn't. He

287
00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:00,319
Speaker 1: hasn't played a complete season since twenty nineteen. Injuries and

288
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,200
Speaker 1: his tape wasn't all that good in twenty twenty. Nobody

289
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 1: on LSU pas say twenty twenty for everybody was pretty well.

290
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:07,839
Speaker 1: But so these are just the types of things you

291
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:09,680
Speaker 1: think about where it's like, man, if if a guy

292
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 1: like Derek Stingley's for some reason still hanging around, you

293
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 1: pull the trigger on that. You pray that he's around.

294
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:18,840
Speaker 1: And so I my point is guard between between Kelvin

295
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 1: and Right and the two veterans. They're not married to

296
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 1: any of those guys really in my opinion. I mean,

297
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 1: you don't want to give up on a top fifty

298
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:28,920
Speaker 1: pick after one year, and they're not going to. But

299
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 1: I just this just isn't a situation that stresses me.

300
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: I think there's so much that's gonna have to happen

301
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 1: this offseason with management of this ros roster, because you

302
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 1: got guys that you weren't even necessarily expecting to be

303
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,640
Speaker 1: as good as they've been, Like jay Ron, curse that

304
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: that now. I saw Brian just tweeting a little earlier.

305
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 1: He was saying like he made this comment, he just

306
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 1: kind of said it off the cuff, like I don't

307
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 1: know if the Cowboys can even afford him. I wasn't

308
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 1: thinking like that, but I am now thinking, like, I

309
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 1: wonder what it will cost, Like I wonder if there

310
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: are teams out there. I wonder I wonder if they're

311
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 1: teams out there that are willing to say, like, man,

312
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 1: we'll give him a pretty decent deal. And if you're

313
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 1: they're willing to do that, like by the Cowboys, willing

314
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 1: to match that with everything all the other deals that

315
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 1: they're having to pay. Just remember about curse and and

316
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 1: there's a lot of people out there, a lot of

317
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 1: a lot of coaches that are stubborn and arrogant that

318
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 1: look and they think that their system is the way

319
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 1: it is and this guy fits it and this guy doesn't,

320
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:25,920
Speaker 1: which I think is crap. And we've seen over the

321
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 1: years that this stuff is crap. Tyron Tyron Matthew, I

322
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 1: think is a perfect example of that. Just just go

323
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 1: just go get a player, you know, go get a

324
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 1: football player, and you figure it out, don't your Your

325
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 1: system isn't that great. You know, I can see Belichick

326
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 1: maybe can get away everything because the system has been

327
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 1: proven to work. But you know, the Rod Marinelli's of

328
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 1: the world, and that that stuff still gets me. But

329
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 1: there's a lot of coaches that probably wouldn't think Jerron

330
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 1: Curse fits what they're trying to do because he's a

331
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 1: unique player and you got to play him in a

332
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:55,920
Speaker 1: in a you know, different spot and it's working. Dan

333
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 1: Quinn saw him and said, oh yeah, yeah, I got

334
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 1: a spot for him and it's working. I'm saying every

335
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 1: other team would figure it out just the same. He's

336
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 1: not just the safety. You don't just put back there

337
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,160
Speaker 1: as a safety. He's a safety linebacker. You got to

338
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 1: have a good role for him. So I'm not saying

339
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 1: everybody would just be jumping at him. Well. I will

340
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 1: say this though, and dan Quinn, I think was the

341
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 1: one that was talking about yesterday, was either him or

342
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 1: McCarthy talking about how now you're seeing a lot of

343
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 1: defenses at a one to play that big nickel. He

344
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 1: feels that role really nicely and and there may not

345
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 1: be a lot of guys out there in free agency

346
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 1: who fill that role, and if more teams are one

347
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 1: could do it. That makes him a very, very valuable commodity.

348
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 1: We used to get a rundown and if I had

349
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 1: gotten one today, I would have been able to do

350
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 1: a lot of research on the salary cap. I didn't.

351
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 1: I didn't know we were getting into twenty twenty two.

352
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 1: Today we're not. But it was just something my thought. No.

353
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 1: But I just the reason I say that is something

354
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 1: I think we all need to keep in mind is

355
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 1: things feel very normal right now, and they are and

356
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 1: wonderfully so. And I love how it feels so good

357
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:54,640
Speaker 1: to be able to go out to restaurants and we

358
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:57,320
Speaker 1: go to these sporting events and COVID's still a thing,

359
00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 1: but we're not as worried about it as we used

360
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 1: to be. But the league is still dealing with a

361
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 1: cap crunch, like everybody is tied up under it. They're

362
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 1: not going to make it all back this year. The

363
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,120
Speaker 1: TV money doesn't start to kick in for a few years.

364
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 1: The reason I bring all this three the reason another

365
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 1: year to do with it. So I don't like there's

366
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:18,879
Speaker 1: not going to be as much money to go around,

367
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:21,239
Speaker 1: and I think teams loss all team everybody, and I

368
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,160
Speaker 1: think everybody's going to still kind of have their belt tightened.

369
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 1: And I'm not trying to say that the Cowboys can

370
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 1: hang on to all their players, but I do think

371
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 1: that's going to affect the market where you're maybe not

372
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:36,399
Speaker 1: going to see as ridiculous an amount of just cash

373
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 1: splashing on the first two eight days of free agency.

374
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 1: So I'm interested to see how all that plays out.

375
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:43,920
Speaker 1: And I've got to think it gives the Cowboys a

376
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 1: favorable chance of being able to do what they want

377
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:48,679
Speaker 1: to do. And I also think, and this is just

378
00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 1: a theory of mine, I actually think their ability to

379
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,639
Speaker 1: keep Dan Quinn here another year will help them with

380
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:56,639
Speaker 1: that because I think sure for some of these players,

381
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,760
Speaker 1: they may look at it like, man, I was able

382
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 1: to do things with this defense coordinator I haven't done

383
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,880
Speaker 1: in my whole career jay Ron Curse, and so being

384
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,480
Speaker 1: able to resign him to stay with that defensive coordinator

385
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,080
Speaker 1: may be valuable. Like they may be willing to say, hey,

386
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 1: you know, I think I want to stay here, and

387
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:12,959
Speaker 1: even though I might getting offered, that's a little bit

388
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:14,920
Speaker 1: more over here as far as money is concerned. I

389
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,120
Speaker 1: think I will play better and I like the role

390
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 1: I have here in Dallas better. I've been thinking about

391
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:22,119
Speaker 1: this too, and I actually, again going back to me

392
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,239
Speaker 1: being well rounded, this is the dumb stuff I do

393
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:26,120
Speaker 1: in my day to day life. I'm on the elliptical

394
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 1: this morning listening to my NFL podcast sort of getting

395
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,840
Speaker 1: ready for the day, and then I'm just start quizzing

396
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,600
Speaker 1: myself on like what jobs might come open this year.

397
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,160
Speaker 1: I came up with like six to eight. It doesn't

398
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:40,440
Speaker 1: really matter what they are. But you think about Kellen

399
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:44,880
Speaker 1: Moore and dan Quinn. One of them is this super nova,

400
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,840
Speaker 1: hot name, rising star. He's gonna have his pick, like

401
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 1: Kellen Moore doesn't have to settle for a job just

402
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:53,479
Speaker 1: because it's an opening, you know what I mean. And

403
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 1: then dan Quinn is on the other side, He's like, well,

404
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 1: I've already done this. I know what it's like to

405
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 1: be a head coach. I know how unfun the wrong

406
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 1: situation can be. And so maybe he's not as exciting

407
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,600
Speaker 1: as Kellen Moore because he's technically a retread that sounds mean.

408
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:12,879
Speaker 1: But he also, I think, has a chance to be

409
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:16,360
Speaker 1: very selective. So again people get worried about Kellen Moore

410
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:18,159
Speaker 1: and Dan Quinn and it's like, these are two guys

411
00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 1: that might be a little more discerning than your average coordinators,

412
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: and so I wonder if that gives the Cowboys a

413
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 1: better chance to hold onto both of them as well.

414
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,119
Speaker 1: I don't know the answers to these questions, but these

415
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,159
Speaker 1: are just the things I think about that just begs

416
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,159
Speaker 1: the question. And we got a few seconds before we go,

417
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 1: But I want to ask real quick, if right now,

418
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 1: if you had to guess, which one do you think

419
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:39,160
Speaker 1: is in high would be in higher demand? Kellen Moore

420
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:40,680
Speaker 1: it will be in I think he will be in

421
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 1: higher demand because it's all about offense. It's all about

422
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 1: your relationship with the quarterback calling the plays. That is

423
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:50,040
Speaker 1: the everybody wants. Sean mcvayh and Kyle Shanahan, that's what

424
00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 1: every team wants. The Cowboys have it right now, and

425
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,120
Speaker 1: Kellen Moore has never failed before, so I think that

426
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 1: makes him the one that will be in higher demand.

427
00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:01,000
Speaker 1: But I also think there's something to be said for

428
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 1: the guy who's done it before, who's learned a few

429
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 1: lessons from his last stop, all that stuff. So I

430
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:08,399
Speaker 1: think there's some coaches. I think there's some teams that

431
00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:10,040
Speaker 1: might look at it the other way and think dan

432
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,199
Speaker 1: Quinn could be a better fit for them because he

433
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:16,439
Speaker 1: goes like they've said, he's done it before. And also,

434
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 1: you know, when you look at what the Cowboys have,

435
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: there are some people that think, well, get a coordinator

436
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,159
Speaker 1: or a young coordinator. If you got a dock, you

437
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 1: got Zeke, you got the line, you got the receivers, Yeah,

438
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 1: you can make that work. And he's making it work.

439
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 1: But dan Quinn came in here and just totally kind

440
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:35,440
Speaker 1: of flipped one of the worst defenses we've ever seen, so,

441
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 1: you know, and he's got the experience as well. He's

442
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 1: been in his Super Bowl before. Probably should have won

443
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,199
Speaker 1: that game. They didn't, but I don't think it was

444
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,920
Speaker 1: really because of him, whatever it is. I mean, he's

445
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 1: been there, so I you know, Cowboys are going to

446
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:51,200
Speaker 1: be lucky to get one of the two of them back.

447
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:53,200
Speaker 1: I mean the fact that dan Quinn I think that's

448
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 1: the point right there. He has done more with less

449
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,040
Speaker 1: dan Kellen Moore, And for me, if I were looking

450
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 1: at it, I'd be like, the way he flipped this

451
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 1: defense from what it was last year to what it

452
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,080
Speaker 1: is this year. And then you can't count in the

453
00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:07,120
Speaker 1: fact that he got his team to a super Bowl

454
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 1: when he was a head coach. Yeah, they didn't win it,

455
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,680
Speaker 1: but as Jerry said this morning, he should be a

456
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:14,479
Speaker 1: super Bowl winning head coach like that was. There's no

457
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 1: excuse for that. Ironically, Kyle Shanahan is like a darling

458
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,280
Speaker 1: in the NFL, and I put it more on him

459
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 1: than dan Quinn. Dan Quinn's the head coach exactly right.

460
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:27,680
Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna take our first break and we

461
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:29,720
Speaker 1: come back. We're gonna be join by deal Wall talk

466
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,199
Speaker 1: simple factors. The crease in his hat, the bend of

467
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,720
Speaker 1: his brim, and his unbending attitude a man. Stetson didn't

468
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,040
Speaker 1: just protect him from what life through at him. It

Speaker 1: years ago. So it's all good now. M Hey, real quick,

521
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,040
Speaker 1: what do you guys? What I want you to do

522
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,200
Speaker 1: is I want you to just kind of first tell

523
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,080
Speaker 1: people what's been going on in your life, because man,

524
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:55,359
Speaker 1: from where you were when you were here to where

525
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 1: you are now, like everything has changed, everything has changed

526
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 1: about your life. You've got a beautiful family, but talk

527
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:05,160
Speaker 1: about where you like what else happened these last several years. Man,

528
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:07,200
Speaker 1: I was really blessed and fortunate to work for the

529
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,840
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys for three seasons. Some of the best times

530
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 1: in my life, some of the best friends in my life.

531
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:15,119
Speaker 1: And then when I did news in Sherman, Texas, and

532
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:17,920
Speaker 1: I moved to Tyler, Texas, and then Kansas City came

533
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:19,920
Speaker 1: calling six and a half years ago, and so I'm

534
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:23,560
Speaker 1: at KSHB. We are the NBC affiliate in Kansas City,

535
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 1: also the home of the Chiefs, and so it's been awesome. Man,

536
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 1: married two kids, I'm like a full fledged grown up. Now, yeah,

537
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:33,679
Speaker 1: you are. You are. And by the way, what the

538
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 1: one thing you didn't talk about is you're also an author,

539
00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 1: like Nick is, Like you guys are both. Yeah? Really, yes,

540
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:45,840
Speaker 1: you know. So I decided to write a book after Oh, Nick,

541
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:51,119
Speaker 1: you forgot I think I did tell us about the book. Sorry.

542
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,160
Speaker 1: So the book is called The Unhappiest One, and it's

543
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 1: all these different people, places, and experiences in my life

544
00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 1: that have taught me really meaningful lessons about happiness and

545
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:03,320
Speaker 1: fulfilled and so my journey there at what used to

546
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 1: be the ranch was a big part of that, and

547
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:08,600
Speaker 1: you guys helped me quite a bit, I would say,

548
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:13,160
Speaker 1: except for Nick Derek. Yes, Nick. No. So when you're

549
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,920
Speaker 1: when you're in Kansas City and the Cowboys are playing,

550
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 1: especially like a Sunday night game on NBC, Like, are

551
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 1: you like full fledged Cowboys fan wearing I mean because

552
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:24,919
Speaker 1: I think I saw a picture with you wearing chiefs,

553
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:29,160
Speaker 1: So I don't know about that. First of all, let's

554
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,600
Speaker 1: roll this back, Okay. I am born and raised in

555
00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 1: the state of Texas. I'm a Cowboys fan, and I

556
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:37,199
Speaker 1: think everybody in the Kansas City metro knows that I

557
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:40,880
Speaker 1: wear Cowboys gear every game day. This is a hard

558
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 1: week for me. Thankfully it only happens once every four seasons.

559
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:45,800
Speaker 1: But our station is the home of the Chiefs, right,

560
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,760
Speaker 1: so I've gotten to see what it does for a

561
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:52,439
Speaker 1: city that is really thirsting for a championship get to

562
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,159
Speaker 1: bring one home. And so I will never root against

563
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:57,280
Speaker 1: the Chiefs. I want them to be successful. I want

564
00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,959
Speaker 1: them to do well because it's great for the community

565
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,680
Speaker 1: I love and live in now. But I'm a Cowboys

566
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:06,239
Speaker 1: fan forever, man, So how's that going to work this week? So?

567
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,280
Speaker 1: Who are you gonna be rooting for? Like, he's gonna

568
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 1: be hard? Who are you gonna root for? Yeah? This

569
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 1: is all on camera, all right, that's okay, you don't

570
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 1: have to see it. For the Cowboys. I'm rooting for

571
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. I have to first of all, listen, the

572
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:28,600
Speaker 1: Chiefs have won a championship. They've been to the Super

573
00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 1: Bowl twice in the last two years. Okay, my team

574
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 1: needs to shine against the Chiefs. I'm just I'm rooting

575
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:39,160
Speaker 1: really hard for the Cowboys this week. Hey, I'll say this,

576
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:45,639
Speaker 1: nobody was more frustrated with Number nine ton I remember

577
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:53,879
Speaker 1: those days and then as Katon gates. This man gets

578
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:57,359
Speaker 1: to the booth, and I love Tony Romo on the call.

579
00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,479
Speaker 1: I think he is amazing for CBS. However, You're right,

580
00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:03,639
Speaker 1: I was totally frustrated, and I definitely can tell the

581
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:07,879
Speaker 1: difference in quarter quarterback play and leadership. I just I

582
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,440
Speaker 1: feel like number four makes you believe you can win.

583
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,439
Speaker 1: I say what you will, I will still die on

584
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:16,280
Speaker 1: that hill. Nick, All right, Hey, I'm with which, by

585
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,120
Speaker 1: the way, I've heard like so much about you over

586
00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 1: the years. It's surreal to actually be talking to you

587
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:27,400
Speaker 1: so high, um Dave, meeting you via zoom all these

588
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:30,200
Speaker 1: years later, which you'll be at dinner with a Saturday.

589
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 1: Oh fantastic. I can't I can't wait. I'm I'm punk, which,

590
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,400
Speaker 1: so I mean you already kind of touched on this,

591
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 1: but it's been kind of frustrating up there by recent

592
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 1: chief standards. Obviously they kind of got back on track

593
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 1: on Sunday. But I'm just curious what the vibe is like.

594
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 1: Is it all sunshine and rainbows now that they beat

595
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 1: the Raiders or what are we stepping into here? Come

596
00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:58,040
Speaker 1: on that hill? You know what it is? Winning cares

597
00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 1: all right? I think the first weeks. I mean, the

598
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:04,080
Speaker 1: fans were pissed, the team was pissed. The Chiefs just

599
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:05,720
Speaker 1: didn't look like they were having fun and they were

600
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 1: loose out there. And so they win a good division

601
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:13,200
Speaker 1: matchup on Sunday night. They hate the Raiders, that's a

602
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 1: huge rivalry for them, and so I think for them

603
00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 1: it's like that confidence boost, that shot in the arm.

604
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:20,800
Speaker 1: So you think about a team that was under fire

605
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 1: from even the fan base here in the city to

606
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 1: now it's like, well, you know, the last time the

607
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 1: Chiefs were six and four, the year they went to

608
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,920
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl and won, Like winning cares all. And

609
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 1: I think if you're if you've watched enough football, you

610
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:35,040
Speaker 1: know that's the secret sauce. I talked to Nick Eatman

611
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:37,640
Speaker 1: that is last week, and it was like, watch, they're

612
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:39,920
Speaker 1: gonna get hot, right when the Cowboys come to town.

613
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 1: How this is not a Sunday night game. Yeah, I

614
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 1: have no idea. The biggest concern for the Chiefs. I mean, yeah,

615
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,280
Speaker 1: but I think the biggest concern for the Chiefs at

616
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:52,280
Speaker 1: this point is going to be, well when it comes

617
00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:55,200
Speaker 1: to the Cowboys. The Chiefs know how to get out

618
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:56,840
Speaker 1: there and win, and they know how to get it done.

619
00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:59,080
Speaker 1: I think they're a team that's had a championship mentality

620
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:01,520
Speaker 1: for the past two seasons. This season maybe been him

621
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,240
Speaker 1: in the butt a little bit. And so I think

622
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:05,640
Speaker 1: they're ready to come out and really try to run

623
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 1: the table because they're still in fourth place and really

624
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 1: trying to push to get to the postseason and make

625
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,880
Speaker 1: another Super Bowl run. Yeah. And the thing is is

626
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:17,200
Speaker 1: Fox is doing doing this game, and you know they

627
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 1: only get a couple of chances a year to get

628
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 1: the Chiefs and get Patrick Mahomes. And you know, I

629
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,120
Speaker 1: was going to ask you, d I saw a commercial

630
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,200
Speaker 1: the other day that didn't have Patrick Mahomes in it.

631
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,160
Speaker 1: It was weird. I mean, because he's in every other one.

632
00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 1: Have you met him? And he seems like even and

633
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,560
Speaker 1: this might change Sunday after, you know, Cowboys had to

634
00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 1: play him, but he seems like a guy you would

635
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:38,400
Speaker 1: just want to root for it. I mean, I like him,

636
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 1: I like watching I like everything I see from him.

637
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 1: Is he that guy? And if you have experiences, you know,

638
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:50,160
Speaker 1: meeting him or interviewing him. Yeah, So I think I've

639
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:52,920
Speaker 1: met Patrick Mahomes once or twice, not a ton. I

640
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,360
Speaker 1: cover a little bit of sports. I mostly do news now,

641
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,200
Speaker 1: But he's a great guy. I mean, he's done some

642
00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:00,920
Speaker 1: really really impactful things in the community through his foundation,

643
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 1: opened some great all inclusive parks in the city and

644
00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 1: underserved areas. So like you can drive now through the

645
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 1: inner city and see kids and families out playing. Right,

646
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 1: he's on the cereal boxes. I mean, he's just all

647
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 1: over the place. Donated like twenty five thousand books to

648
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 1: kids just a couple of weeks ago. So I definitely

649
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 1: think he's also made investments in local teams. So he's

650
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 1: part owner of the Kansas City Royal, his fiance part

651
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:27,440
Speaker 1: owner of the Kansas City Current, which is and I

652
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,280
Speaker 1: mean the women's soccer professional team is bringing the first

653
00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:33,440
Speaker 1: dedicated stadium for a women's soccer team in the entire

654
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:35,960
Speaker 1: country to Kansas City. And so I think he's made

655
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:38,000
Speaker 1: a lot of smart investments in the community. I think

656
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 1: he's really made it known that he loves this city,

657
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 1: in this community, and he wants to stay here. Keeps

658
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:45,440
Speaker 1: no slings, stay a lot of trouble. Like, he's just

659
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:47,800
Speaker 1: like a good dude. So it is hard, it is

660
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 1: hard not to root for him and want to see

661
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:52,040
Speaker 1: him be successful. Plus. I mean he's from Texas. Yeah,

662
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 1: which did y'all see what's happening in Kansas City this

663
00:31:54,920 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 1: week of all weeks. No, they're opening water Burger put

664
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:03,479
Speaker 1: from Patrick Mahomes Like, okay, that's been his initiative. He's like,

665
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:05,960
Speaker 1: we gotta get water Burgers. Change it up. We should

666
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 1: be going to dinner at water Burgers. I don't know, man,

667
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 1: you see the lions. You see the lions on the

668
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 1: drive through. He's like, no, no, no, no. It was insane.

669
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 1: It was insane. People were lining up at five six

670
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,720
Speaker 1: am and they didn't been opened until eleven. Hey. Hey,

671
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 1: Battleburger is pretty good. I mean, I get it. Nothing

672
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 1: is worth waiting in that line. That's true power right there.

673
00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:27,400
Speaker 1: I mean, you bring water Burgers in town. So deal,

674
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 1: let me ask you this. I don't I think sometimes

675
00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:33,960
Speaker 1: good No, no, no, you go ahead, Okay, I was

676
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:37,120
Speaker 1: gonna ask you. I know, being in Dallas, it's hard

677
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:40,720
Speaker 1: sometimes to know what people are saying in other cities

678
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 1: about the Cowboys. What's the tone of the conversation in

679
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 1: Kansas City about Dallas this year? Oh boy, everybody loves

680
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,800
Speaker 1: to hate the Cowboys. That's what's so crazy. I don't

681
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:57,720
Speaker 1: really understand that. You know, I think every team has

682
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 1: dreamed of taking down America's team. Right. They could be mad,

683
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 1: they could be frustrated, whatever, but I think for them,

684
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:06,280
Speaker 1: they want this to be a statement game. So I

685
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:08,800
Speaker 1: know a lot of Chiefs fans here. Again no secret

686
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:12,440
Speaker 1: that I'm a Cowboys fan, and so my mentions and

687
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:15,640
Speaker 1: d ms, the Chiefs hadn't even got to zero on

688
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 1: Sunday night on the clock before they were like, oh,

689
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:19,720
Speaker 1: we can't wait, We're gonna tear the Cowgirls up. And

690
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 1: I'm like, y'all, just let them settle it on the field, like,

691
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 1: let them go out there and play. So I think,

692
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:30,280
Speaker 1: especially when, to be honest, the Cowboys look different than

693
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:33,880
Speaker 1: I've seen them look in my adult life on all

694
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,680
Speaker 1: three phases of the game. And so I think, especially

695
00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 1: knowing that the Cowboys are riding a little bit high,

696
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 1: playing really well, and executing at a high level, the

697
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:44,720
Speaker 1: Chiefs feel like they got the ship on their shoulder,

698
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 1: and so does their fan base now since they've come

699
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 1: up against a little bit of adversity this season. So

700
00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 1: now I think they're like, oh, yeah, we're gonna prove

701
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 1: that the Cowboys aren't who you think they are, and

702
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 1: so I think for them, they want this to be

703
00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:58,920
Speaker 1: a statement game, and so I think in order for

704
00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 1: the Cowboys to win, they got a come out and

705
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 1: set the tone early. This is going to be a

706
00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:07,240
Speaker 1: game that I think, shockingly, both offenses are potent can

707
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:08,680
Speaker 1: really beat you. But I think this is going to

708
00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:10,160
Speaker 1: be a game where the defense is going to turn

709
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:14,000
Speaker 1: the tide. Okay, So with regard to the fans that

710
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:15,800
Speaker 1: are in the city, are there is that one of

711
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 1: those cities where there are a lot of Cowboys fans

712
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:19,759
Speaker 1: and do you expect them to be at the game

713
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 1: this week? Do you expect to be a nice number

714
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:23,719
Speaker 1: of Cowboys fans in the stands? Or this one is

715
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:25,799
Speaker 1: it was this one of those stadiums where it's gonna

716
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 1: be all Kansas City. They don't sell their tickets. It's

717
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 1: just gonna be a hometown game. I think they're going

718
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:36,400
Speaker 1: to be a good number of Cowboys fans. But Chief's

719
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:39,239
Speaker 1: Kingdom as they call it, is ready. Okay. I think

720
00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:41,440
Speaker 1: this is one game that everybody wants to be at.

721
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 1: The tickets for the Cowboys game, we're almost double the

722
00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:47,240
Speaker 1: price of tickets for every other opponent on the schedule

723
00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 1: from the minute that the schedule was released. That's the

724
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:52,799
Speaker 1: Cowboys of FAI. Let's call it what it is, right, So,

725
00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:54,040
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people want to be in

726
00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 1: the stands. However, I'm actually doing a story today. I

727
00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,839
Speaker 1: will be going out to interview some prominent cowboys fans

728
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:04,440
Speaker 1: towne who does a big radio show, one who has

729
00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:07,920
Speaker 1: a huge Cowboys flag in his yard. The neighbors are living,

730
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,840
Speaker 1: so I mean, I definitely think the contingent here is

731
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:15,200
Speaker 1: loud and proud and excited because cowboys only come to

732
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,880
Speaker 1: town every eight seasons, so they're trying to make the

733
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:21,200
Speaker 1: most of it. That's awesome, all right, real quick, before

734
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:23,160
Speaker 1: we end the show, do you have a good Nick

735
00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:27,479
Speaker 1: Eatman's story from the time. If you don't, it's okay.

736
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:29,400
Speaker 1: But do you have a good story of Nick Eatman

737
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:31,279
Speaker 1: from back in the day when he was a young man?

738
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:38,600
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, okay, so funny, Nick fly original breakers, right.

739
00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 1: Me and Nick used to sit next to each other

740
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:45,240
Speaker 1: in the studio, and one I was always nervous about

741
00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:48,439
Speaker 1: what he would say, what he would do. Nick's goal

742
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:51,520
Speaker 1: every single show was to throw me off my game

743
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:59,399
Speaker 1: with terrible inside jokes, not all of them appropriate sounds

744
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:04,440
Speaker 1: about right, say exactly exactly. But I will tell you

745
00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 1: nothing made Nick happier than to get me flustered so

746
00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:10,840
Speaker 1: that he could again just annihilate me on the show.

747
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:14,520
Speaker 1: And nothing's changed. Man, I feel can't through you, guys,

748
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:16,880
Speaker 1: my big brothers. I'm I'm so proud to see the

749
00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 1: growth of the show. I'm glad you let me put

750
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,839
Speaker 1: you on social media ten years ago. Yeah right, yeah,

751
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:26,040
Speaker 1: you were responsible for us getting a Twitter account. Yeah, absolutely, Yeah,

752
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:29,600
Speaker 1: I got a Dia story. Give me, give me a

753
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:33,239
Speaker 1: Dia story. Yeah, no, no, no, this is this isn't on,

754
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:36,880
Speaker 1: This isn't a bad one. We we were hosting together

755
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:40,440
Speaker 1: of the Jerry Jones Show one year and we had

756
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:42,640
Speaker 1: tried to do some fun bits there, you know, for

757
00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,840
Speaker 1: a certain segment. So one year we were in training

758
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:49,719
Speaker 1: camp in in uh San, Antonio, and so we decided

759
00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 1: that we were gonna learn the the you know, the

760
00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:55,080
Speaker 1: ins and out of a field goal. A field goal.

761
00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:58,280
Speaker 1: So I got to work with Matt McBriar as the holder,

762
00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 1: and Dia got to work with Pete Latticer, who was

763
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:06,000
Speaker 1: a nice nice to Dia and snapping, and I thought

764
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:07,719
Speaker 1: I got the easiest part of it, you know, because

765
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:09,360
Speaker 1: I just got the hold and just spend it and

766
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:12,800
Speaker 1: Layson's out Dan, you know easy. She actually, in about

767
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:16,360
Speaker 1: thirty minutes, learned how to snap this thing perfectly. She

768
00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:18,719
Speaker 1: was snapping, I was holding. We were gonna kick a

769
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:21,120
Speaker 1: field goal for David Bieler. That was what we were

770
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,000
Speaker 1: gonna do. We had the cameras out, we were gonna

771
00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:25,440
Speaker 1: do it, and so I go to the camera and

772
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:27,560
Speaker 1: I'm like, we just hied the game. We're gonna do it,

773
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:29,560
Speaker 1: and David Beeler comes up and he was like, what

774
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:31,520
Speaker 1: are we doing. We're not kicking this for real. It's like, yeah,

775
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:33,480
Speaker 1: you're gonna kick it. She snaps, I hold, you kick it.

776
00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:35,200
Speaker 1: He was like, no, no, no, no, I'm not doing

777
00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:37,560
Speaker 1: that kind of walks off, and then McBriar was like,

778
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,319
Speaker 1: kickers are weird, man. They don't want anyone else to

779
00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:42,680
Speaker 1: do it. So we had to change the whole segment

780
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:46,680
Speaker 1: and we did the lsu flip over the shoulder Beeler

781
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:48,759
Speaker 1: and so we were like, we went for two. We

782
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:50,600
Speaker 1: went for two. We never actually got to do it,

783
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:52,839
Speaker 1: but Dia the snap was perfect. I thought the hold

784
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:54,759
Speaker 1: was good. We didn't get the kick and kick it

785
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:56,800
Speaker 1: but it's okay. But she learned how to snap in

786
00:37:56,880 --> 00:38:01,600
Speaker 1: thirty minutes. They get old days. Oh no, actually I

787
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:03,279
Speaker 1: have to throw in. One of my favorites was when

788
00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:05,279
Speaker 1: we ran the forty. I'll remember that, Yes, I do

789
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:11,319
Speaker 1: remember that. Oh yeah, yeah, whatever against josh Ellis. Who right,

790
00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:15,040
Speaker 1: we can talk about that. I mean, and we couldn't

791
00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:17,960
Speaker 1: do it today. Oh we definitely could. This used to

792
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:21,319
Speaker 1: be a way more fun show. Oh yeah, me Dash

793
00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:26,560
Speaker 1: Derek ran the forty together and and uh, I don't

794
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 1: know what happened. We're an alamodome and and you know

795
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 1: I was a little thinner back then and long legs,

796
00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 1: and I think I got Derek and then so so

797
00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:39,640
Speaker 1: then Derek like, let's let's do it again. So we

798
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 1: did it again, and I might have jumped the gun

799
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 1: a little bit. Got to start on that one, a

800
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:46,400
Speaker 1: second one. And I don't know what happened behind this,

801
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:49,400
Speaker 1: but I know Josh Ellis came last lying and gotta

802
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:51,680
Speaker 1: he fell on the turf and all that DA beat

803
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:55,839
Speaker 1: him with with those shoes on right, somebody didn't have shop. Yeah,

804
00:38:55,920 --> 00:39:00,520
Speaker 1: I was not running. I I got rest. Thank you

805
00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 1: so much for letting me come crash the boy. Oh

807
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:07,719
Speaker 1: I need your predictions for the game. I won't make one.

808
00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:13,040
Speaker 1: We can't be making predictions on that predict. It's gonna

809
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:17,359
Speaker 1: be loud. Yeah, I will tell you this. Cowboys will win.

810

00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 1: but Cowboys gonna win. Definitely gonna win. I'm not there yet.

00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:31,000

868
00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 1: I saw Shane McMahon fly off the side of a

869
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:36,960
Speaker 1: thirty foot page. It was awesome. Yeah, I'm in. I'm in. Yeah,

870
00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:39,680
Speaker 1: it'd be interesting. Okay, Yeah, we'll see what we can

871
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:41,960
Speaker 1: do for me. You know, I grew up a big

872
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:45,080
Speaker 1: wrestling fan growing up. Oh me too, But but now

873
00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:47,480
Speaker 1: you know, I mean it's one of those things like

874
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,359
Speaker 1: I've gone, I've gone to WrestleMania, and I say, I've done.

875
00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:52,719
Speaker 1: You've been to wrestle Mania. I've been wrestling. Yeah, yeah,

876
00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:55,359
Speaker 1: can I go? Five years ago? So I went, So

877
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,279
Speaker 1: it wouldn't it wouldn't be one of those things where

878
00:42:57,320 --> 00:43:00,600
Speaker 1: I would you know, I was just waiting for like, honestly,

879
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:02,960
Speaker 1: I thought like maybe whole Coogan was going to come back.

880
00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:04,960
Speaker 1: I thought there was a chance he might come back,

881
00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:07,160
Speaker 1: or the Rock Robby, the guy holding up to Coco

882
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:12,920
Speaker 1: b weare sign and then Coco Cocobs the chic. You know,

883
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:16,440
Speaker 1: I'm do you remember Cocob? Where's a parrot that he had?

884
00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:19,000
Speaker 1: Remember the name of it was? No, I don't what

885
00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:22,960
Speaker 1: was it? I think it was Frankie Frankie? Maybe does

886
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,759
Speaker 1: that not ringle bell? I don't know, Cocob not saying

887
00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:28,480
Speaker 1: you're wrong. I'm just saying I don't remember that. Maybe not.

888
00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:30,920
Speaker 1: That just sounds right to me. How about how about

889
00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:33,640
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy, which I asked him about, walked by talking

890
00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:35,759
Speaker 1: about wrestling. I asked him, you know, he said, he

891
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 1: goes back. He said, George to the animals steel remember

892
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:41,480
Speaker 1: that used to like eat the turnbuckle. Oh, Mike McCarthy,

893
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:43,480
Speaker 1: There no doubt in my mind he was a pro

894
00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:45,520
Speaker 1: wrestling guy at one point in his life. Yeah. Yeah,

895
00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:47,560
Speaker 1: for sure. Pretty much everybody was at some point in

896
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:50,279
Speaker 1: their lives. Yeah, you gotta win it? How long? Right? Yeah? Yeah? Yeah? Okay?

897
00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:51,719
Speaker 1: You know, all right, here was we're gonna do. I

898
00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:52,960
Speaker 1: want to talk a little bit. And this is a

899
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:55,160
Speaker 1: topic I brought up yesterday afternoon. This is kind of

900
00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:56,840
Speaker 1: stuff for you guys out there listening that we do

901
00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:59,239
Speaker 1: in our office on a regular occasion. I just was

902
00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:02,160
Speaker 1: kind of like, you think Dak's gonna be you think

903
00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 1: he's a legitimate MVP League MVP candidate and he is

904
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:09,560
Speaker 1: like he gave me his answer, and I asked Day

905
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:11,560
Speaker 1: the same question. He gave me his answer. I was like, bet,

906
00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:13,880
Speaker 1: that's a show topic. So here we got a segment.

907
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:16,920
Speaker 1: Here we go. I'm gonna toss it up and I'm

908
00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:18,600
Speaker 1: gonna let you guys go at it a little bit.

909
00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:25,040
Speaker 1: Here is Dak Prescott a legit MVP candidate? Go ahead, Yes,

910
00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:27,600
Speaker 1: he's a legit candidate. I don't think he'll win. So

911
00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:29,399
Speaker 1: maybe if I don't think he'll win, then I guess

912
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:31,600
Speaker 1: I don't think think he's a legit candidate because I

913
00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:34,399
Speaker 1: don't think he's going to win. I just think there's

914
00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:37,480
Speaker 1: other teams, other guys that are probably by the end

915
00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:40,680
Speaker 1: of the year will probably be considered more of a

916
00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:43,640
Speaker 1: one dimensional. They'll lead their team. They're the only guy

917
00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:45,640
Speaker 1: that they've gotten by one dimensional saying, oh, just like

918
00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:49,759
Speaker 1: an Aaron Rodgers or a maybe you mean a team

919
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:52,879
Speaker 1: that everything they do is about him? Yeah, I got yeah,

920
00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:55,319
Speaker 1: that's what And I just you know, I don't think

921
00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:58,400
Speaker 1: the Minnesota game helped from that standpoint, they were able

922
00:44:58,440 --> 00:45:01,919
Speaker 1: to win without him. Um, you know, and he's having

923
00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:05,759
Speaker 1: a great season and he is the best player on

924
00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:08,040
Speaker 1: the team. I'm not saying he's not. I just feel

925
00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:10,040
Speaker 1: like at the end of the year, they'll probably be

926
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:13,279
Speaker 1: other guys that have a record right up there, and

927
00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:15,719
Speaker 1: they'll they don't have as much help, they won't have

928
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:18,120
Speaker 1: as many Pro Bowlers around him. So that's why I

929
00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:22,040
Speaker 1: don't think he'll probably get that. I think I think

930
00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:24,399
Speaker 1: either Dak Prescott or Kyler Murray's gonna win an FL

931
00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:27,640
Speaker 1: MVP this year. I mean, and that's simplistic. We're only

932
00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:31,399
Speaker 1: halfway through the season. Rogers is in there, Brady's in there,

933
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:33,560
Speaker 1: but you can already see it shaping up. And we

934
00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:38,040
Speaker 1: talked about this yesterday. I'm stealing this straight from m

935
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,760
Speaker 1: Robert Mays, who does a wonderful job with The Athletic

936
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:46,920
Speaker 1: Football Show. When you think about the narratives, I really

937
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:49,640
Speaker 1: think that that's important. I think that's really important. Um,

938
00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:53,640
Speaker 1: he's never won it before. You got Brady, who's won it.

939
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:57,040
Speaker 1: I think three times. Rogers just won it. They don't

940
00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:00,960
Speaker 1: They don't like that. They want new Dak Prescott is new.

941
00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:04,480
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott is also playing amazing football. He's on pace

942
00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:08,759
Speaker 1: for forty yards for touchdowns. He is the engine that

943
00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:11,720
Speaker 1: makes this thing go. I also think this is weird

944
00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:16,399
Speaker 1: to say, along with Brady and Rogers, he is the

945
00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:20,200
Speaker 1: most like developed passer in the NFL. Like how much

946
00:46:20,239 --> 00:46:24,760
Speaker 1: of what the Cowboys do is predicated on Dak seeing

947
00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:28,480
Speaker 1: what the defense is offering, changing it, sliding the protection,

948
00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:32,000
Speaker 1: telling CD lamb, Hey they're bringing cover zero, this is

949
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:34,520
Speaker 1: what they're gonna do. Make for the back pylon. I'm

950
00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:36,919
Speaker 1: just gonna chuck this thing to space and it's gonna

951
00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:39,680
Speaker 1: come down in your lap. Like he's He's incredible. He

952
00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:44,120
Speaker 1: is operating at a Peyton Manning type of level, which

953
00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:47,560
Speaker 1: people aren't. There's still people that aren't ready for that.

954
00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 1: Like there's still people that think of Dak as like

955
00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:54,440
Speaker 1: read option, look for your first or second read or

956
00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:57,799
Speaker 1: let Zeke take Like, no, we're so far past that.

957
00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:00,800
Speaker 1: I think he is one of the three four best

958
00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:04,400
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the world right now at diagnosing what a

959
00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:08,239
Speaker 1: defense is trying to do. Kyler Murray is just a

960
00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:11,879
Speaker 1: phenomenal athlete. I think he's developing all of that as

961
00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:14,000
Speaker 1: he goes, but he's got the athleticism that lets him

962
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:16,920
Speaker 1: make all these crazy plays. He's also missed two games

963
00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:20,680
Speaker 1: to injury, by the way, Cardinals won one of those,

964
00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:23,240
Speaker 1: So I'm not I'm not trying to hear that eking

965
00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:26,960
Speaker 1: past Minnesota discredits what Dak has done this year, especially

966
00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:29,600
Speaker 1: if he keeps this up for eight more weeks. Like

967
00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:32,000
Speaker 1: I said, you factor in all of that with what

968
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:35,120
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are doing, the brand power of the Cowboys.

969
00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:38,600
Speaker 1: They haven't had an NFL mv PE sin simme at

970
00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:45,160
Speaker 1: Smith right nineteen ninety three. He's if it's even debatable,

971
00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:49,919
Speaker 1: he's gonna win for the near the Star. The fact

972
00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:52,080
Speaker 1: that it hasn't happened in twenty can go backward, that

973
00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:53,359
Speaker 1: can go the other way too. There are a lot

974
00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:55,920
Speaker 1: of people out there that hate the Star. Like that

975
00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:58,000
Speaker 1: goes both ways, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, but

976
00:47:58,080 --> 00:48:01,120
Speaker 1: it's almost like a snowball effect though, And and the

977
00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:04,200
Speaker 1: writers that vote on it don't hate the Star. The

978
00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:08,359
Speaker 1: fans might. But and it's it's a new face. It's

979
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:11,719
Speaker 1: a new person kind of carrying you into this new

980
00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:14,840
Speaker 1: era instead of Rogers who's won it a decade ago.

981
00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:18,560
Speaker 1: And Brady who's won it eons ago as as well

982
00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:22,640
Speaker 1: as recently. So I just think it's if it's even close.

983
00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:24,880
Speaker 1: I think he's got a fantastic chance to win it

984
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:27,200
Speaker 1: as long as he stays healthy. Honestly, Nick, let me

985
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:29,399
Speaker 1: ask you this, what do you think or is there

986
00:48:29,440 --> 00:48:32,160
Speaker 1: something that Dad can do more of that you think

987
00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:34,279
Speaker 1: would turn it in his favor? Well, I mean not

988
00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:36,640
Speaker 1: in his favor right now. I mean, I guess it

989
00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:38,719
Speaker 1: all comes down to how you think things are going

990
00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:43,560
Speaker 1: to finish, and I feel like, you know, I think

991
00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:46,000
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are going to have some This is going

992
00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:47,480
Speaker 1: to kind of go up and down a little bit.

993
00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:50,080
Speaker 1: This schedule that's in front of them is still going

994
00:48:50,160 --> 00:48:52,439
Speaker 1: to be daunting him, in my opinion, and I think

995
00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:54,319
Speaker 1: this is the time of year where a lot of

996
00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:57,440
Speaker 1: those decisions are made. So it all comes down to

997
00:48:57,600 --> 00:48:59,680
Speaker 1: what the Cowboys are going to do here in the

998
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:03,080
Speaker 1: next month. You know, they got five games in front

999
00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:06,000
Speaker 1: of him, four of them on the road, So you know,

1000
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:08,839
Speaker 1: he's if he if they go and they go four

1001
00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:10,920
Speaker 1: and one in that stretch, or maybe even three and

1002
00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:13,319
Speaker 1: two if it's the right games, then yeah, I think

1003
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:15,520
Speaker 1: he has a chance to, like Dave said kind of

1004
00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:17,880
Speaker 1: put himself up there. I just have this feeling and

1005
00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:19,919
Speaker 1: maybe because I've never seen it. I think I've seen

1006
00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:22,920
Speaker 1: a lot of things before, um, other than an NFC

1007
00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:27,440
Speaker 1: Championship game in the tie and in an MVP, you know,

1008
00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:31,760
Speaker 1: for the Cowboys. I I just can't visualize that happening,

1009
00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:34,480
Speaker 1: and I feel like the voters won't go for that.

1010
00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 1: They'll probably look at the ballot and they'll think, come

1011
00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:39,040
Speaker 1: back Player of the Year. Oh, that's let's put back there.

1012
00:49:39,120 --> 00:49:41,279
Speaker 1: That's where I think it's going to happen. Oh, he

1013
00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:44,120
Speaker 1: already won that, unless he gets so many votes for

1014
00:49:44,239 --> 00:49:46,480
Speaker 1: MVP that they're like, all right, well let's give let's

1015
00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:50,000
Speaker 1: give it. Let's I can't think it's somebody sure, yeah, sure,

1016
00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:54,480
Speaker 1: Joe Burst. I forgot to mention Matthew Stafford. And there's

1017
00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:56,960
Speaker 1: something to be said for the power of LA and

1018
00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:00,359
Speaker 1: the league is just force feeding us LA right now

1019
00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:03,759
Speaker 1: between the Super Bowl being there and Stafford and then

1020
00:50:03,760 --> 00:50:07,839
Speaker 1: they're adding these players. Yeah, maybe it's I was thinking

1021
00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:11,479
Speaker 1: about that when Dio was talking, like, and I laugh.

1022
00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:13,759
Speaker 1: I've been in this for eight years, so I get it,

1023
00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:17,720
Speaker 1: and I love Cowboy Nation, But like I vividly remember

1024
00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:19,600
Speaker 1: what it's like to be a fan of a non

1025
00:50:19,719 --> 00:50:23,759
Speaker 1: Cowboy team and how annoying that is. Um, and so

1026
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:25,920
Speaker 1: maybe it's kind of a taste of our own medicine

1027
00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:28,600
Speaker 1: where you're like, not enough about the Rams. Oh my god,

1028
00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:31,520
Speaker 1: well guess what, that's what thirty other teams think about

1029
00:50:31,560 --> 00:50:37,200
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. So um so yeah, but Stafford Kyler and

1030
00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:39,680
Speaker 1: I think Dak is right there, and like, if you

1031
00:50:39,719 --> 00:50:41,400
Speaker 1: put him in order right now, how do you think it?

1032
00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:44,480
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm biased, Like, and I've watched every snap

1033
00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:47,759
Speaker 1: of Dak's season, Kyler, Murray's incredible, the stuff that he

1034
00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:52,200
Speaker 1: can do. Um, I mean, I'd go with Dak, but

1035
00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:56,080
Speaker 1: I'm I'm way too biased to offer an impartial opinion. Yeah,

1036
00:50:56,120 --> 00:50:58,120
Speaker 1: it's it's really interesting to me when you look at

1037
00:50:58,160 --> 00:51:00,960
Speaker 1: what Dak was as a colle it's quarterback to what

1038
00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:04,000
Speaker 1: he is now as an NFL quarterback. It's been such

1039
00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:07,000
Speaker 1: a remarkable change, Like he is not the runner that

1040
00:51:07,080 --> 00:51:09,439
Speaker 1: he was in college. I would even say at this point,

1041
00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:14,080
Speaker 1: Dak is among the very best proficient pocket passers in

1042
00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:16,200
Speaker 1: the NFL. Like the way he sits back there, and

1043
00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:18,480
Speaker 1: you were talking about how he sits back there, figures

1044
00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:20,799
Speaker 1: out what's going on with the coverage, gets the ball

1045
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:23,080
Speaker 1: to the right guy and is accurate, gets the ball

1046
00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:25,640
Speaker 1: where it needs to be in and some really sometimes

1047
00:51:25,640 --> 00:51:27,839
Speaker 1: some really interesting ways he has to get the ball

1048
00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:30,560
Speaker 1: in there. Like I'm just so impressed with how he

1049
00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:33,080
Speaker 1: has kind of changed his game from what it was

1050
00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:35,359
Speaker 1: to what it is now, and it is so good

1051
00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:36,960
Speaker 1: at it. You could do a whole show on this.

1052
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:40,920
Speaker 1: But it's interesting the way the league is structured. You

1053
00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:43,120
Speaker 1: got to find a quarterback quick because they're cheap on

1054
00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:45,719
Speaker 1: their rookie contracts. So guys are playing younger than ever

1055
00:51:46,080 --> 00:51:49,120
Speaker 1: and it's easier not to discredit them. But it's easier

1056
00:51:49,120 --> 00:51:51,680
Speaker 1: to play a quarterback than it was even ten years ago.

1057
00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:56,479
Speaker 1: Roethlisberger's on his last legs, Brady will eventually be done

1058
00:51:56,520 --> 00:51:59,600
Speaker 1: at some point. Rogers is what maybe Mannings are at.

1059
00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:03,240
Speaker 1: Both of the Mannings have retired, Romo's retired, like Rivers retired.

1060
00:52:03,280 --> 00:52:06,080
Speaker 1: All these guys they got old and aged out, and

1061
00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:09,760
Speaker 1: now it's young guys who are good but are still

1062
00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:11,799
Speaker 1: learning how to play the position. Like a lot of

1063
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:14,479
Speaker 1: these offenses are still I don't want to say they're

1064
00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:19,680
Speaker 1: like simplified, but you're still just kind of learning as

1065
00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:21,960
Speaker 1: you go and kind of scheming things up for guys

1066
00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:24,239
Speaker 1: who aren't all the way there. I mean, even Mahomes,

1067
00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:27,240
Speaker 1: who everybody agrees as the best quarterback in the league.

1068
00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:30,360
Speaker 1: He even said, like, I'm still just learning how to

1069
00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:32,719
Speaker 1: read coverages. Remember when he said that like two years ago.

1070
00:52:33,080 --> 00:52:36,120
Speaker 1: And so it's weird to say, but Dak is in

1071
00:52:36,200 --> 00:52:39,960
Speaker 1: this weird. It's not weird. It's impressive, but he is.

1072
00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:42,120
Speaker 1: Like I said, he's like one of the two or

1073
00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:46,440
Speaker 1: three most accomplished passers, not pure quarterbacks, but just in

1074
00:52:46,560 --> 00:52:49,440
Speaker 1: terms of knowing what defenses are doing, know how to

1075
00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:52,359
Speaker 1: counteract it, all that stuff. It's weird to think because

1076
00:52:52,360 --> 00:52:55,600
Speaker 1: he's only twenty eight, but he's right up there in

1077
00:52:55,719 --> 00:52:58,759
Speaker 1: terms of just understanding how to play the position. All right,

1078
00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:00,359
Speaker 1: that's a rap for us. We're going to be back tomorrow.

1079
00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:02,799
Speaker 1: We're gonna start getting into Cowboys versus Chiefs. Well, have

1080
00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:04,800
Speaker 1: Bucky Brooks join us. We'll talk about the Chiefs offense

1081
00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:06,759
Speaker 1: versus the Cowboys defense. Still in for Nick even to

1082
00:53:06,840 --> 00:53:08,839
Speaker 1: Dave helm and I am Derek Eagleton. This has been

1083
00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:14,600
Speaker 1: the Break live on Dallas Cowboys dot Com Radio. This

1084
00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:17,440
Speaker 1: has been a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and

1085
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:19,399
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
