We will head out tomorrow heading down to 0:01:32.360 --> 0:01:36.240 San Francisco, and uh so today it's our job to 0:01:36.480 --> 0:01:38.080 get you ready and let you know what we think 0:01:38.120 --> 0:01:40.480 is going to happen in Sunday's game. We'll start first 0:01:40.520 --> 0:01:44.720 with the injury roundup. Yesterday a couple players didn't practice 0:01:44.760 --> 0:01:48.000 for the Cowboys. Deron Bland still not practicing, Michael Parsons 0:01:48.040 --> 0:01:51.320 still not practicing, Nick Vigil not practicing. He actually was 0:01:51.400 --> 0:01:55.360 limited on Wednesday, but did not practice yesterday. Then they 0:01:55.360 --> 0:01:57.800 had a couple guys that were limited, Eric Kendricks and 0:01:57.920 --> 0:02:01.880 Ryan FILLINOI full practic's though for Kayln Carson, which is 0:02:01.920 --> 0:02:04.480 a good sign hopefully that maybe they can get him 0:02:04.480 --> 0:02:06.240 back and get him back in the lineup. Talking about 0:02:06.400 --> 0:02:08.040 what you guys are hearing as far as these injuries 0:02:08.040 --> 0:02:08.720 are concerned. 0:02:08.520 --> 0:02:10.480 Yeah, sounds good on the Kayln Carson front, which is 0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:12.600 good because it doesn't sound too great on the Dran 0:02:12.680 --> 0:02:16.040 Bland front. So I think Carson will be back to 0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:19.240 be in a starting role for these Cowboys on Sunday. 0:02:19.680 --> 0:02:21.560 It sounds like a Saturday practice is going to be 0:02:21.560 --> 0:02:23.920 the big threshold for both Bland and Parsons. I'm not 0:02:23.960 --> 0:02:27.799 expecting Parsons to go at this point, but Saturday. If 0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:30.560 he can somehow be a full participant in practice by tomorrow, 0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:33.960 then that'll kind of lead more confidence towards him playing 0:02:34.000 --> 0:02:34.480 on Sunday. 0:02:34.720 --> 0:02:34.880 Yeah. 0:02:34.919 --> 0:02:37.800 I think it is good news about with Carson situation. 0:02:38.200 --> 0:02:41.239 But man, it's it's been been a long strange journey. 0:02:41.280 --> 0:02:42.960 I guess that was a song back in the day 0:02:43.120 --> 0:02:47.280 on Strange Journey, and I think it was a Grateful Dead. 0:02:47.800 --> 0:02:51.760 I think what alone strange journey? 0:02:51.800 --> 0:02:54.880 You know something like that. Yeah, yeah, we've go out 0:02:54.880 --> 0:02:56.720 to California. We'll look up the Grateful Dead. 0:02:56.560 --> 0:03:00.560 For a long strange trip, make good journey, trip trip journey? 0:03:00.680 --> 0:03:01.440 Is that the song? It is? 0:03:01.440 --> 0:03:01.960 Grateful Dead? 0:03:01.960 --> 0:03:02.120 Though? 0:03:02.400 --> 0:03:03.680 Are we fact checking songs? 0:03:03.760 --> 0:03:04.040 Yeah? 0:03:04.120 --> 0:03:11.959 Yeah, out on it right, trim Journey closing off, Yeah, 0:03:12.120 --> 0:03:12.680 something like that. 0:03:12.760 --> 0:03:15.200 Okay, But anyway, it's been a it's been a grateful 0:03:15.240 --> 0:03:18.640 Dead trip for these guys with it for Carson's shoulder. 0:03:18.760 --> 0:03:21.040 It it seems to like they kind of get it 0:03:21.080 --> 0:03:24.480 to a point and then it doesn't respond like they 0:03:24.480 --> 0:03:27.240 thought it was going to respond going forward. So they've 0:03:27.280 --> 0:03:28.800 had a lot of uh, they've had a lot of 0:03:28.840 --> 0:03:30.880 issues with it right now and hopefully it's a it's 0:03:30.880 --> 0:03:34.520 coming back around. Like I say, the Bland thing, Parsons thing, 0:03:34.560 --> 0:03:36.520 I I have my doubts about that one. 0:03:36.560 --> 0:03:36.840 Today. 0:03:36.920 --> 0:03:39.000 I think we'll probably get the injury report and that'll 0:03:39.440 --> 0:03:42.400 probably saying out there I know for sure with Parsons, 0:03:42.480 --> 0:03:45.600 but we'll see with with with Bland hopefully h hopefully 0:03:45.640 --> 0:03:48.080 that turns around. But that the Carson ones, they've been 0:03:48.080 --> 0:03:50.600 trying for weeks to get that thing right, and it's 0:03:50.720 --> 0:03:52.880 kind of it gets to it where it needs to be, 0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:55.360 and then they kind of then goes back to where 0:03:55.360 --> 0:03:57.680 it was and so it's it's it's been been. 0:03:57.560 --> 0:03:58.360 A little bit of struggle. 0:03:58.560 --> 0:04:00.400 What you guys are what do you guys aaring with 0:04:00.400 --> 0:04:03.360 regards to Parsons. Is this one of those things where, uh, 0:04:03.400 --> 0:04:05.960 this is gonna take significantly more time or is he 0:04:06.040 --> 0:04:08.200 literally like at that point where it's like it could 0:04:08.200 --> 0:04:10.760 be literally next week he could be fine and ready 0:04:10.760 --> 0:04:12.840 to play, or is this really like, no, this is 0:04:12.840 --> 0:04:14.760 gonna take a little while. He's gonna he's gonna he's 0:04:14.800 --> 0:04:15.160 gonna be. 0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:15.560 Out a minute. 0:04:15.560 --> 0:04:17.719 Well, when the idea of not putting him on the 0:04:17.760 --> 0:04:21.039 IR came about after the Giants game, it was with 0:04:21.080 --> 0:04:23.560 the understanding that he would be back within four games, 0:04:23.560 --> 0:04:25.760 and that fourth game is next week against Atlanta, So 0:04:26.640 --> 0:04:28.960 the hope and the expectation would be that he can 0:04:29.000 --> 0:04:31.000 make it back by then, but at the latest, at 0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:33.680 the latest. Correct. Yeah, but I think there's there's a 0:04:33.680 --> 0:04:35.520 lot of desire to make sure that he's one hundred 0:04:35.520 --> 0:04:37.599 percent before he gets back out on the field, which 0:04:37.640 --> 0:04:38.039 is smart. 0:04:38.080 --> 0:04:40.000 Obviously, you've got a player of that caliber. You don't 0:04:40.040 --> 0:04:42.040 want to mess up and put him back out there 0:04:42.040 --> 0:04:44.159 and then have more problems later. 0:04:44.240 --> 0:04:46.279 Exactly. Yeah, you would rather have him for the November 0:04:46.320 --> 0:04:48.880 December stretch than force him back early October. 0:04:48.880 --> 0:04:51.560 Held love to have him this week though, for sure. 0:04:52.040 --> 0:04:54.480 You know, with the struggles that the forty nine ers 0:04:54.520 --> 0:04:56.760 have had on offense and maybe having to play a 0:04:56.800 --> 0:05:00.160 little bit, you know, and I really do appreciate the 0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:02.760 the guys that played in a backup role, you know, 0:05:02.839 --> 0:05:05.279 with how they've been able to kind of you know, 0:05:05.279 --> 0:05:08.080 instead of playing fifteen eighteen snaps, they're having to play 0:05:08.120 --> 0:05:11.720 forty snaps and you know it's they're holding up pretty well. 0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:15.320 It's just and in these games when the other team's 0:05:15.360 --> 0:05:17.800 a little bit compromised, it'd be nice to have your 0:05:17.839 --> 0:05:20.080 best players as well, maybe to take advantage of that. 0:05:20.120 --> 0:05:22.760 But it seems pretty even now with the players they 0:05:22.839 --> 0:05:25.080 might be having out and then the players you're having out. 0:05:25.160 --> 0:05:27.920 So it's that that part of it kind of stings 0:05:27.920 --> 0:05:29.000 for the Cowboys a little bit. 0:05:29.200 --> 0:05:31.039 Take me back to the early part of the season 0:05:31.320 --> 0:05:33.839 and walk me through your thoughts on where you thought 0:05:33.960 --> 0:05:36.800 Klen Carson was. I know, coming out of training we 0:05:36.800 --> 0:05:39.720 were all well, but let me I just want to say, like, 0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:42.320 coming out of training camp, I think we all thought 0:05:42.440 --> 0:05:46.040 he was ready for an increased role that he's going 0:05:46.080 --> 0:05:48.560 to have to play. What did you guys see in 0:05:48.600 --> 0:05:51.840 those early games specifically that you're like, this is an 0:05:51.880 --> 0:05:54.120 area where Okay, he was what I thought he was, 0:05:54.200 --> 0:05:55.760 and this is an area where I feel like he's 0:05:55.800 --> 0:05:57.600 got a lot of development to go. 0:05:57.800 --> 0:06:00.360 I way overrated him because I knew him come out 0:06:00.360 --> 0:06:02.680 of Wake Forest, and I saw and then I saw 0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:05.240 in the preseason and some of the training camp practices 0:06:05.279 --> 0:06:06.920 where something bad happened to him. 0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:09.640 The next play. He was on it. He was you know, 0:06:09.680 --> 0:06:11.000 he it took something. 0:06:11.200 --> 0:06:13.680 If you remember the preseason game against the Rams, they 0:06:13.760 --> 0:06:16.360 kind of bullied him a little bit to start the game, 0:06:16.440 --> 0:06:20.000 and then after he finally kind of realized like, okay, 0:06:20.000 --> 0:06:22.880 I could play with these guys, and then he started tackling, 0:06:22.880 --> 0:06:25.360 He start covering everything, him. 0:06:26.000 --> 0:06:28.000 And and him and Nielan. 0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:30.960 I feel so bad for both those guys because I 0:06:30.960 --> 0:06:31.400 feel like. 0:06:31.360 --> 0:06:34.080 That Neilan was Kneelan's on his way up. 0:06:33.960 --> 0:06:35.840 And they the more that those guys were going to 0:06:35.920 --> 0:06:38.760 get to play, the better they were. So I kind 0:06:38.760 --> 0:06:41.520 of feel like with Carson. With Carson, I overrated him 0:06:41.520 --> 0:06:44.120 because I thought, I say overrated. I overrated him because 0:06:44.160 --> 0:06:46.680 I'm thinking, like, this guy is going to be a contributor. 0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:49.120 He is going to help he's going to play at 0:06:49.160 --> 0:06:51.240 a high level, and he's going to be physical, and 0:06:51.279 --> 0:06:53.479 he's going to tackle, and he's going to cover, and 0:06:53.520 --> 0:06:57.400 he's going to maybe make you think about playing Bland 0:06:57.520 --> 0:06:59.480 some at the nickel. You know, he's going to be 0:06:59.520 --> 0:07:02.719 that good that he's going to help you move some 0:07:02.800 --> 0:07:06.120 guys around. But this injury thing just it set him 0:07:06.160 --> 0:07:09.320 way back, and I know he'll be aggressive coming out 0:07:09.440 --> 0:07:12.320 and trying to get things done. But I just feel 0:07:12.400 --> 0:07:15.320 terrible for him and kneeling because I just felt like 0:07:15.360 --> 0:07:18.120 they were two young guys that were at least were 0:07:18.160 --> 0:07:19.160 going the right direction. 0:07:19.400 --> 0:07:21.960 Yeah, in Carson's case, I think there's a lot of 0:07:22.040 --> 0:07:24.080 products of maybe both sides of the ball and not 0:07:24.160 --> 0:07:26.120 being as good as we thought in training camp, and 0:07:26.120 --> 0:07:28.680 this is probably a product a minor product of that. 0:07:28.760 --> 0:07:31.640 But you do see him out in training camp against 0:07:31.640 --> 0:07:33.480 the Rams or preseason against the Rams. That was the 0:07:33.480 --> 0:07:35.560 one I wanted to bring up as well, Brian, just 0:07:35.600 --> 0:07:37.440 because he did get picked on early on in that 0:07:37.480 --> 0:07:41.120 game and he responded well. But I maybe expected a 0:07:41.160 --> 0:07:44.080 little bit more from him in this starting role, so 0:07:44.240 --> 0:07:46.880 much so that I present the question, would you start 0:07:47.040 --> 0:07:49.720 a Manti Ora Warreer over Carson in this game? 0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:50.840 Yeah? 0:07:51.000 --> 0:07:52.040 You would. You would consider that. 0:07:52.080 --> 0:07:54.720 I would consider it absolutely. I think Warrier has been 0:07:54.760 --> 0:07:56.960 more consistent, He's longer, he can kind of give you 0:07:56.960 --> 0:07:58.880 more physicality in the second area. I feel like, even 0:07:58.920 --> 0:08:01.200 though Carson is a physical guy, I don't think he 0:08:01.280 --> 0:08:04.320 quite knows how to marry the physicality with the change 0:08:04.360 --> 0:08:06.520 of direction just yet, whereas or Warrier does it a 0:08:06.560 --> 0:08:08.440 little bit better. I Bland is the better guy of 0:08:08.480 --> 0:08:10.680 the three, no doubt. But I think I think if 0:08:10.720 --> 0:08:12.880 you want experience, you throw an oral warrier for a 0:08:12.920 --> 0:08:15.320 game like this, if you're playing like the Panthers, and 0:08:15.360 --> 0:08:17.000 not to discredit the Panthers, or maybe. 0:08:16.880 --> 0:08:18.080 To discres discredit the Pan. 0:08:18.160 --> 0:08:19.920 Yeah, maybe it's a discredit Pan. If you're playing the 0:08:19.960 --> 0:08:22.400 Panthers or I don't know, another team that you feel 0:08:22.480 --> 0:08:25.160 comfortable letting a rookie get some reps in that kind 0:08:25.160 --> 0:08:27.520 of opportunity, then I would probably throw out Carson. But 0:08:28.120 --> 0:08:30.080 in a situation like this, I'd like to see or Warrier. 0:08:30.360 --> 0:08:33.240 I think, I think for I mean, I agree with 0:08:33.440 --> 0:08:38.120 you this week mainly because him coming off the injury. 0:08:38.240 --> 0:08:41.760 Anybody doesn't matter what stage in your career you're at, 0:08:41.800 --> 0:08:44.280 just any time you're coming back from an injury, it's 0:08:44.320 --> 0:08:46.520 still gonna be a little bit of a. 0:08:48.200 --> 0:08:49.599 I don't know the word, I'm looking. 0:08:49.320 --> 0:08:51.720 For it, but it's yeah, it's gonna take a little 0:08:51.720 --> 0:08:54.920 bit for you to get back into rhythm. But with him, 0:08:55.200 --> 0:08:58.599 I thought, I thought he started his career in the 0:08:58.720 --> 0:09:02.720 NFL doing such a good job. And you look back 0:09:02.760 --> 0:09:05.760 and take at the tape. Yes, there are plays that 0:09:05.960 --> 0:09:11.360 he missed. They scored touchdowns on him, but he is 0:09:11.400 --> 0:09:15.240 a rookie and for that specific position, you're basically on 0:09:15.280 --> 0:09:19.760 your own when you're defending the play. Like, there's so 0:09:19.880 --> 0:09:22.960 many good things that he did, and it's always remembering 0:09:23.200 --> 0:09:26.160 just kind of like where he's at in his career 0:09:26.400 --> 0:09:30.920 and being giving some grace in that sense that, yes, 0:09:31.240 --> 0:09:34.520 there's gonna be bad plays. How are you gonna put 0:09:34.520 --> 0:09:37.040 on tape? But I think what you pointed out, Brian, 0:09:37.120 --> 0:09:40.000 it's something that it's key and that I always look 0:09:40.120 --> 0:09:43.160 for in young players is how are they going to 0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:45.880 come back after a bad play mentally? Because that can 0:09:45.960 --> 0:09:48.959 be very very challenging for young players. And I think 0:09:49.000 --> 0:09:51.640 he's handled the mental aspect of the game. 0:09:51.520 --> 0:09:52.280 Very very well. 0:09:52.640 --> 0:09:57.240 Now obviously with time comes the experience and him improving 0:09:57.320 --> 0:10:01.760 his overall game. But it's unfortunate he did end up 0:10:01.800 --> 0:10:03.360 getting hurt at the time that he did. 0:10:04.160 --> 0:10:06.240 All Right, So I had a couple questions for you guys. 0:10:06.240 --> 0:10:08.120 I'm gonna throw a couple quick questions at you before 0:10:08.160 --> 0:10:10.560 we get to our first break. These are big pick 0:10:10.720 --> 0:10:14.640 questions about the Cowboys versus the Niners. Which offensive player 0:10:14.640 --> 0:10:17.800 And this is besides Dak Prescott. Which offensive player do 0:10:17.840 --> 0:10:21.040 you think the Dallas Cowboys need more desperately to play 0:10:21.080 --> 0:10:22.920 their best game this week in order for them to 0:10:22.960 --> 0:10:23.520 be able to win? 0:10:24.160 --> 0:10:25.200 Can I say Dalvin Cook? 0:10:25.960 --> 0:10:26.240 Sure? 0:10:26.559 --> 0:10:27.680 Yeah, that out there. 0:10:27.800 --> 0:10:29.360 I think Dalvin Cook. I think this is a week 0:10:29.400 --> 0:10:31.520 for Dalvin Cook. And if he gets. 0:10:31.320 --> 0:10:33.600 An opportunity to bring some insight here. 0:10:33.520 --> 0:10:36.160 If this is the opportunity for him, then give him 0:10:36.160 --> 0:10:37.800 double digit carries and let him see what he can 0:10:37.840 --> 0:10:40.280 roll with. Because if they bring out Dalvin Cook and 0:10:40.360 --> 0:10:43.400 he has a great game for this offense, we could 0:10:43.400 --> 0:10:46.000 be looking at a much different offense these final eleven weeks. 0:10:46.520 --> 0:10:48.880 Also, so we don't feel stupid, we've been on every 0:10:48.920 --> 0:10:49.719 show here. 0:10:50.360 --> 0:10:54.880 Bring him up exactly. I will say with the Dalvin 0:10:54.920 --> 0:10:57.640 Cook case, I don't think he's twenty twenty two Dalvin Cook. 0:10:57.840 --> 0:11:00.000 But I also don't think he's twenty twenty three Dalvin Cook. 0:11:00.040 --> 0:11:01.600 I think it's probably somewhere in the middle. And if 0:11:01.600 --> 0:11:03.920 he can find even half of what he was in 0:11:03.920 --> 0:11:06.080 twenty twenty two, it's miles better than what they have 0:11:06.160 --> 0:11:06.520 right now. 0:11:06.960 --> 0:11:08.920 Would this be a told you so moment for you 0:11:09.640 --> 0:11:11.680 if that happened, If he comes out and plays well, 0:11:12.880 --> 0:11:15.160 like like I told you, I told you guys, take 0:11:15.200 --> 0:11:17.120 a look at this guy. I wonder how many people 0:11:17.160 --> 0:11:18.040 would say, hey. 0:11:18.000 --> 0:11:22.320 We probably the whole thing, Yeah, the whole fan base. Yeah. 0:11:22.320 --> 0:11:22.480 You know. 0:11:22.559 --> 0:11:25.400 I'd been a little bit lower on expectation just because 0:11:25.640 --> 0:11:27.920 we haven't seen him in a full roll in two years. 0:11:28.280 --> 0:11:30.720 But I do think he still has more to contribute 0:11:30.720 --> 0:11:31.319 in his career. 0:11:31.480 --> 0:11:33.520 I think the kind of the told you so moment 0:11:33.600 --> 0:11:35.920 for me when it comes to these running backs was 0:11:37.000 --> 0:11:40.520 Zeke against the Lions. That was that I told you so, 0:11:40.640 --> 0:11:44.080 don't don't, don't go into these games wasting. You know, 0:11:44.360 --> 0:11:46.800 you go to the Pittsburgh game and you have some success. 0:11:46.880 --> 0:11:48.480 What was wrong? What happened? 0:11:48.600 --> 0:11:50.640 If I were to question the staff, I'd say, what 0:11:50.920 --> 0:11:53.839 what changed between the time you get off the plane 0:11:53.880 --> 0:11:56.360 from Pittsburgh to getting ready for the Lions? 0:11:56.640 --> 0:11:56.800 Why? 0:11:57.000 --> 0:12:00.520 Why did all of a sudden that you decided that, okay, 0:12:00.640 --> 0:12:03.960 let's go this route, let's let's let's load up Zeke 0:12:03.960 --> 0:12:05.680 in this game and see if we can get you know, 0:12:05.800 --> 0:12:07.120 I to me. 0:12:07.240 --> 0:12:08.280 I I agree. 0:12:08.320 --> 0:12:11.120 I I'd like to see before you even before you 0:12:11.200 --> 0:12:16.040 even entertain maybe making the trade play Dalvin Cook and 0:12:16.080 --> 0:12:16.439 see what. 0:12:16.440 --> 0:12:18.880 He is just see you know it. 0:12:18.960 --> 0:12:21.400 Maybe maybe you catch lightning in the bottle these last 0:12:21.400 --> 0:12:24.800 eleven ten eleven weeks, maybe you do, you know, maybe 0:12:24.840 --> 0:12:27.400 it's like that. Okay, well yeah we didn't play him early, 0:12:27.440 --> 0:12:28.960 but our running game looks different now. 0:12:29.840 --> 0:12:33.120 He's helping our offensive line. The physicality, the cutting ability, 0:12:33.400 --> 0:12:35.440 the ability to read, to be able to make people 0:12:35.520 --> 0:12:38.240 miss my guys. Dude, it's so fresh right now and 0:12:38.280 --> 0:12:40.679 ready to play. You know he's and he's going to 0:12:40.760 --> 0:12:42.240 want to prove that he could do. 0:12:42.280 --> 0:12:44.319 I mean, now, maybe they won't block worth a damn 0:12:44.320 --> 0:12:46.760 for him, but I give it. 0:12:46.720 --> 0:12:48.800 A go, man, Just give it a go, you know, 0:12:49.280 --> 0:12:49.679 give it. 0:12:49.600 --> 0:12:51.280 A go, Give it a go. 0:12:52.559 --> 0:12:56.000 Aside from him and just kind of the running game 0:12:56.040 --> 0:12:59.559 as a whole there, I would mention an other than Dak, 0:12:59.640 --> 0:13:02.200 of course, but this goes hand in hand with him, 0:13:02.360 --> 0:13:03.360 is ceedee lamb. 0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:05.480 We've seen where games. 0:13:05.160 --> 0:13:09.240 Where let's say, other players around them are not necessarily 0:13:10.920 --> 0:13:15.920 creating plays, but once Dak and CD connect and getting 0:13:15.960 --> 0:13:19.319 a rhythm together, we've seen them be able to really 0:13:19.320 --> 0:13:22.680 get the offense going and moving the chains that way. 0:13:22.880 --> 0:13:26.600 So and I don't think I've seen there hasn't been 0:13:26.600 --> 0:13:29.920 a game yet where CD has actually like gone back 0:13:30.000 --> 0:13:34.320 to City Lamb half season last the last I can't 0:13:34.360 --> 0:13:35.080 even word it. 0:13:35.200 --> 0:13:37.280 Last year half the. 0:13:38.040 --> 0:13:39.360 Last half of the season. 0:13:39.760 --> 0:13:42.480 Thank you CD Lamb from the last half of the 0:13:42.480 --> 0:13:46.640 season for last year. He hasn't been that kind of guy. 0:13:46.760 --> 0:13:50.120 And again, this is a year where you paid your quarterback, 0:13:50.240 --> 0:13:53.760 you paid your starting wide receiver, and we still haven't 0:13:53.800 --> 0:13:56.840 seen them perform at the level that you expect them 0:13:56.880 --> 0:13:59.439 and that you have seen them perform in the past. 0:13:59.440 --> 0:14:02.080 So I would hope that maybe they get going. 0:14:02.240 --> 0:14:05.360 Would you rather have an eighty yard day one touchdown 0:14:05.360 --> 0:14:08.200 from Dalvin Cook or one hundred and seventy yards and 0:14:08.280 --> 0:14:12.439 two touchdowns from cdh. 0:14:11.760 --> 0:14:14.720 Will I'll tell you this, if you got to those 0:14:14.800 --> 0:14:17.679 numbers from Dalvin Cook, they're probably winning, which means that 0:14:18.120 --> 0:14:20.680 means that probably what what I've seen from this team 0:14:20.720 --> 0:14:22.760 suggests they're not going to go into a game and 0:14:22.840 --> 0:14:24.960 run the ball that much unless they're winning like they 0:14:24.960 --> 0:14:27.520 did in Pittsburgh, or they're in a close game where 0:14:27.520 --> 0:14:29.640 they have time where they feel like they can really 0:14:29.640 --> 0:14:32.160 now run the ball. So to me, I think the 0:14:32.480 --> 0:14:34.520 winning goes hand in hand with them having a good 0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:35.200 running day. 0:14:35.400 --> 0:14:36.440 Give me the Dalvin Cook. 0:14:36.520 --> 0:14:37.440 Yeah, I think so too. 0:14:37.560 --> 0:14:41.800 Yeah, did you have I kind of think it's got 0:14:41.840 --> 0:14:43.040 to be somebody on defense. 0:14:43.440 --> 0:14:44.280 Well, we're gonna get to that. 0:14:44.320 --> 0:14:46.680 I was saying on the offensive the ball, I would 0:14:46.760 --> 0:14:48.320 always jump ahead on these question. 0:14:49.040 --> 0:14:50.200 See what I control the game? 0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:52.920 I kind of the question when everybody else asks, I 0:14:53.000 --> 0:14:56.520 give a completely different answer. Offensively, I think it's it's 0:14:56.560 --> 0:14:58.800 got to be Terran. It's gotta be Terrence Steele. 0:14:58.880 --> 0:15:00.640 There we go. That's the answer. Looking for it to 0:15:00.640 --> 0:15:01.200 thank you. 0:15:01.320 --> 0:15:03.600 It's got to be Terrence Steel. And it might it 0:15:03.680 --> 0:15:06.840 might even come down to Tyler Tyler Geitt too. But 0:15:07.080 --> 0:15:09.960 whoever you know your tackles, that's that's that's who needs 0:15:10.000 --> 0:15:13.680 to have a game because you know, uh, blocking, blocking 0:15:13.720 --> 0:15:16.040 these guys, it's not gonna it's not gonna be easy. 0:15:16.080 --> 0:15:18.240 Both on one side and Floyd on the other. I 0:15:18.240 --> 0:15:21.320 think Floyd's playing pretty well for him. So you know, 0:15:21.360 --> 0:15:24.760 this is once again that that defensive end combination that 0:15:24.800 --> 0:15:26.920 could very well give you problems if you don't if 0:15:26.920 --> 0:15:29.600 you don't handle that, then you can probably have some 0:15:29.640 --> 0:15:30.400 problems in this game. 0:15:30.480 --> 0:15:32.360 Two things that I think this defensive line for the 0:15:32.360 --> 0:15:35.040 forty nine ers does really well that the Cowboys offensive 0:15:35.040 --> 0:15:36.920 line has struggled with at times this year. They struggle 0:15:36.920 --> 0:15:39.160 with a lot of things, but these two specifically stunts. 0:15:39.240 --> 0:15:40.840 They run stunts well and they were able to get 0:15:40.880 --> 0:15:42.920 pressure off stunts. And then they will come right at 0:15:42.960 --> 0:15:45.560 your chest too, like these guys will bring the power. 0:15:46.040 --> 0:15:48.320 Uh and for a Tyler Guidan case or a Terrence 0:15:48.320 --> 0:15:50.800 Steel case that that could be. You know, you got 0:15:50.800 --> 0:15:52.600 to sink those feet. You gotta be ready for that 0:15:52.640 --> 0:15:55.640 because Bosa and Floyd, they both have some power behind 0:15:55.640 --> 0:15:56.000 their punch. 0:15:56.080 --> 0:15:57.960 I'd love to see a game where I don't come 0:15:57.960 --> 0:16:00.280 in here on Monday morning and tell you that eighty 0:16:00.320 --> 0:16:03.200 percent of the game was blocked one on one, you know, 0:16:03.240 --> 0:16:05.440 and then you wonder why you had problems in the game, 0:16:05.960 --> 0:16:08.800 you know. I mean, I just I'd love to be 0:16:08.840 --> 0:16:10.200 able to walk in here and say they did a 0:16:10.200 --> 0:16:13.080 really good job of helping stealing this game. They did 0:16:13.120 --> 0:16:15.200 a really good job of helping guiding in this game. 0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:17.360 You know, we're coming here and we'd say the metrics 0:16:17.560 --> 0:16:19.440 eighty one percent of the time they were one on 0:16:19.440 --> 0:16:22.520 one with their guy. Shame they give up four sacks 0:16:22.560 --> 0:16:25.760 and you know, seventeen pressures, you know, kind of a thing, 0:16:25.880 --> 0:16:27.520 but hopefully that'll not. 0:16:27.520 --> 0:16:28.000 Be the case. 0:16:28.120 --> 0:16:30.520 With all that went wrong against Detroit. I think it 0:16:30.600 --> 0:16:33.680 was the one storyline that I think didn't give it 0:16:33.760 --> 0:16:35.760 get as much credence as it should have, and it 0:16:35.840 --> 0:16:38.680 got some was just how much they were getting wrecked 0:16:38.720 --> 0:16:41.800 on the outside that game. Offensively, they couldn't do anything 0:16:41.880 --> 0:16:44.840 because Dak every play just had somebody in his face. 0:16:44.880 --> 0:16:47.080 And I think that's the part that worries me. And 0:16:47.160 --> 0:16:49.280 I look at this and I'm like, one or both 0:16:49.320 --> 0:16:52.200 of those tackles has to have an outstanding day in 0:16:52.280 --> 0:16:54.320 order for everything else that you guys mentioned to work, 0:16:54.320 --> 0:16:55.880 in order for the Running game to get on track, 0:16:55.920 --> 0:16:58.160 in order for CD to get on track, they've got 0:16:58.240 --> 0:17:01.280 to get that blocked up. And right now, that is 0:17:01.320 --> 0:17:03.600 the last that I've seen of them, and it wasn't 0:17:03.640 --> 0:17:05.479 It wasn't very good. They got to be better than 0:17:05.480 --> 0:17:07.360 that if they expect to get a win this weekend. 0:17:07.560 --> 0:17:08.760 All right, we're gonna take our first break. 0:17:08.760 --> 0:17:11.320 We'll come back, we'll get to a little little yetti 0:17:11.400 --> 0:17:13.679 time with Amber in the third second, we'll get back 0:17:13.680 --> 0:17:15.160 to one of those other questions, maybe get some questions 0:17:15.200 --> 0:17:17.399 from you guys. We'll be back Dallas Cowboys dot com Radio. 0:17:17.760 --> 0:17:18.720 You know that's a lie. 0:17:18.800 --> 0:17:20.520 Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the 0:17:20.560 --> 0:17:23.480 cheetah Savannah.

I think the 0:24:53.800 --> 0:24:55.560 first moment that came to mind though, was my very 0:24:55.560 --> 0:24:58.040 first game that I covered with you guys, forty to 0:24:58.160 --> 0:25:00.200 nothing in New York. It was a great hotel, I 0:25:00.240 --> 0:25:02.439 had great food that morning, and it was just it 0:25:02.480 --> 0:25:04.159 was just a fun trip and you were like, this 0:25:04.240 --> 0:25:05.520 is how it's going to be every leak. 0:25:05.760 --> 0:25:05.920 Yeah. 0:25:05.920 --> 0:25:08.159 I remember I tapped Derek on the shoulder on the 0:25:08.200 --> 0:25:10.000 plane right before we took off from New York and 0:25:10.000 --> 0:25:11.399 I was like, hey, I'm just saying I've been here 0:25:11.440 --> 0:25:16.280 one game and it's forty to Yeah, I'm just saying. 0:25:15.160 --> 0:25:17.920 Exactly, all right, next one a moment of. 0:25:17.960 --> 0:25:25.840 Surprise, does not catch game? Because Me, Nick, Shannon, Dave Hellman, Derek, 0:25:25.920 --> 0:25:29.439 We're all standing right there. That ball went up. He 0:25:29.600 --> 0:25:32.000 caught that thing. That official said he caught that thing. 0:25:32.040 --> 0:25:33.399 The ball is going to be right there. 0:25:33.840 --> 0:25:35.040 You know. That was a moment. 0:25:35.280 --> 0:25:37.119 And then McCarty and then looking across the field and 0:25:37.119 --> 0:25:40.199 seeing McCarthy challenge it and actually win it, I'm like, 0:25:40.240 --> 0:25:40.880 there's no way. 0:25:41.440 --> 0:25:45.479 It was like I was shocked, surprised. How could they 0:25:45.720 --> 0:25:48.200 this is a catch? This is he he caught the ball, 0:25:48.280 --> 0:25:50.720 made a football move. How that to me was my 0:25:50.840 --> 0:25:53.080 moment of being here, like how shocked? 0:25:53.359 --> 0:25:56.119 Remember Shannon and I walking trying to get through the 0:25:56.200 --> 0:25:58.600 crowd to get back to the locker room and what 0:25:58.720 --> 0:26:02.840 it just how dis pointed and just surprise, shot whatever. 0:26:03.280 --> 0:26:05.800 I think shock was the most emotion that I had 0:26:05.840 --> 0:26:08.199 at that time that they did not think that was 0:26:08.240 --> 0:26:11.159 a catch. When we actually found out it was a catch. 0:26:12.800 --> 0:26:14.680 For me, I was trying to look it up real quick. 0:26:14.720 --> 0:26:16.439 I'm pretty sure it was in the two thousand and 0:26:17.280 --> 0:26:22.359 five season. I think we were at Texas Stadium. Cowboys 0:26:22.359 --> 0:26:26.240 were leading by two touchdowns gets the Commanders against the 0:26:26.240 --> 0:26:30.000 Commanders at the time Santana Moss, Santana Moss and me 0:26:30.040 --> 0:26:31.879 and Nick had left the way that you had to 0:26:31.920 --> 0:26:34.200 get down to the field. You had to walk down 0:26:34.200 --> 0:26:36.600 this long hallway to get down to the elevator and 0:26:36.600 --> 0:26:38.800 then you take the elevator down and then once you 0:26:38.880 --> 0:26:40.440 got down the field, then you had to walk through 0:26:40.440 --> 0:26:43.320 the tunnel to get up to the field. When we 0:26:43.400 --> 0:26:47.400 left our seats, Cowboys were still up two touchdowns. By 0:26:47.440 --> 0:26:50.800 the time we got down, they were down. It's Santana 0:26:50.840 --> 0:26:53.720 Moss just back to back bam bam, and that was 0:26:53.800 --> 0:26:54.640 just like it was. 0:26:55.160 --> 0:26:57.360 I was like, wait, what happened? 0:26:57.400 --> 0:26:59.600 Like that was the most surprised I think I've ever 0:26:59.640 --> 0:27:01.480 been where And they're like, what did we met? What 0:27:01.640 --> 0:27:04.600 happened in this situation? To go from being winning and 0:27:04.640 --> 0:27:06.600 thinking at that point you have two touchdowns in the 0:27:06.800 --> 0:27:09.320 late fourth quarter, You're like they're gonna win, and then 0:27:09.359 --> 0:27:10.560 all of a sudden, no, you're not. 0:27:11.200 --> 0:27:13.440 Real quick with too. The Atlanta game that they got 0:27:13.440 --> 0:27:14.480 the on side kick. 0:27:14.560 --> 0:27:16.840 The watermelon kick, the watermelon kick game, and like. 0:27:17.400 --> 0:27:19.920 How did we how are we going to win this game? How? 0:27:20.440 --> 0:27:21.280 It was just crazy. 0:27:21.359 --> 0:27:23.080 Yeah, that that was a little bit of shocked, Like 0:27:23.200 --> 0:27:26.080 they really didn't recover that ball like that was that 0:27:26.119 --> 0:27:26.800 was shocking to. 0:27:26.800 --> 0:27:29.000 My Mine's got to be the playoff loss last year, 0:27:29.359 --> 0:27:31.840 for specifically the first half. I looked up at half shot. 0:27:31.920 --> 0:27:34.080 I was just like, yeah, this is over. 0:27:35.000 --> 0:27:36.760 Wow, just like that, Maybe. 0:27:36.760 --> 0:27:38.479 Maybe I should go get a play the food. You know. 0:27:39.680 --> 0:27:42.320 Close Number two is Jerry Jones calling an im PROMPTU 0:27:42.440 --> 0:27:44.919 press conference before a game in Carolina last year. That 0:27:45.040 --> 0:27:47.560 was that was yeah, that was I didn't have that 0:27:47.600 --> 0:27:48.400 one on my bingo card. 0:27:48.440 --> 0:27:52.440 I'll all right, this one is a hard one, and 0:27:52.480 --> 0:27:54.800 I go with you, Derek. You started off since you 0:27:54.920 --> 0:27:56.640 got like getting scared. 0:27:56.680 --> 0:28:04.720 Discussed discussed, well, I think recency bias is going to 0:28:04.800 --> 0:28:08.240 play in here. That playoff game against Green Bay last year, 0:28:08.760 --> 0:28:12.000 I was totally disgusted. I mean, I remember I left 0:28:12.040 --> 0:28:14.239 the stadium and I went home and both me and 0:28:14.240 --> 0:28:17.280 my wife were just like, like you. 0:28:17.000 --> 0:28:20.760 It was that raw, just like what the was that? 0:28:21.119 --> 0:28:21.239 Like? 0:28:21.359 --> 0:28:24.479 What was that? What we all this season? 0:28:24.640 --> 0:28:26.520 You kind of you got on this run after the 0:28:26.920 --> 0:28:30.120 bye last year, you're rolling and and by the way 0:28:31.520 --> 0:28:33.879 everything worked out for Dallas toward the end of the 0:28:33.920 --> 0:28:37.320 season to where they had been now were the second seed, 0:28:37.760 --> 0:28:39.120 they had won the division. 0:28:39.560 --> 0:28:41.120 The only you looked. 0:28:40.880 --> 0:28:43.040 At it and you were like, really, oh, you gotta 0:28:43.080 --> 0:28:45.720 really worry about is getting to San Francisco. And by 0:28:45.720 --> 0:28:48.560 the way, San Francisco might have a stumbled there along 0:28:48.600 --> 0:28:50.840 the way, you might have a home playoff game in 0:28:50.880 --> 0:28:54.360 the NFC champion Like everything had lined up and then 0:28:54.480 --> 0:28:56.960 for it to happen like it happened. 0:28:57.560 --> 0:29:00.360 That was probably the most disgusted that. 0:29:00.200 --> 0:29:02.440 I can recall. I guess at least that was a 0:29:02.480 --> 0:29:04.400 hard one. That was a really hard when to get over. 0:29:04.920 --> 0:29:07.600 This story was only communicated to me by Nikki Eatman, 0:29:07.680 --> 0:29:09.240 but I just this is the first thing that popped 0:29:09.240 --> 0:29:12.040 into my mind. There was a certain employee of the 0:29:12.120 --> 0:29:14.760 Dallas Cowboys. I'm not here any names here scaring me 0:29:14.840 --> 0:29:18.200 now last last year at training camp, got a raw 0:29:18.240 --> 0:29:24.560 hot dog and dipped it in community I think I 0:29:24.560 --> 0:29:27.320 think it was a honey mustard, and then took a 0:29:27.400 --> 0:29:30.600 bite and then went right back in and it was like, 0:29:30.680 --> 0:29:32.560 this was like a big bowl of I think it 0:29:32.600 --> 0:29:36.200 was honey mustard, and uh yeah, I never touched that 0:29:36.240 --> 0:29:38.560 honey mustard. 0:29:39.520 --> 0:29:42.880 It's also not like a one time thing like there 0:29:42.880 --> 0:29:43.480 are many. 0:29:43.320 --> 0:29:44.280 Stories like that. 0:29:44.840 --> 0:29:52.000 This individual regularly say names. 0:29:49.680 --> 0:29:55.120 We'll talk about it in the break. 0:29:55.480 --> 0:29:56.080 Not doing names. 0:29:56.320 --> 0:29:59.520 Sorry, sorry, discussed. 0:29:59.160 --> 0:30:02.400 This has got a pad or kind of pattern here. 0:30:02.560 --> 0:30:04.960 All right, I think you might be thinking of somebody, 0:30:04.960 --> 0:30:06.760 but it's not that person. But we'll talk about it. 0:30:06.760 --> 0:30:07.360 We'll talk about it. 0:30:07.360 --> 0:30:10.920 Okay, I'll circle back because I've got a couple of stories. 0:30:11.040 --> 0:30:14.040 But that happened, I think it was. 0:30:14.200 --> 0:30:17.040 I'm gonna go back to the I'm gonna go back 0:30:17.080 --> 0:30:21.440 to the two, like the twenty sixteen season when we 0:30:21.600 --> 0:30:23.960 talked about that to be the number one seed. 0:30:24.320 --> 0:30:27.360 You know, you're just thinking, like, man, this team is rolling. 0:30:27.600 --> 0:30:28.120 And I was. 0:30:28.120 --> 0:30:31.840 Disgusted to how that game, how that season ended, because 0:30:31.840 --> 0:30:33.080 you had everything going. 0:30:33.200 --> 0:30:35.160 I mean, usually you're the number one. 0:30:35.040 --> 0:30:37.600 Seed, you get all those home games, you know, you 0:30:37.720 --> 0:30:40.200 got the you're playing. I mean, everything is kind of 0:30:40.200 --> 0:30:43.040 going the right way for you. And I that that 0:30:43.360 --> 0:30:47.360 was discussed the Green Bay game last year. You know 0:30:47.520 --> 0:30:50.200 that to me is like those things they do happen. 0:30:50.480 --> 0:30:54.480 But when you're the number one seed, you're you know, 0:30:54.520 --> 0:30:56.560 everything sets up for you. They set it up the 0:30:56.600 --> 0:30:58.920 best way for you to get to the super Bowl. 0:30:59.480 --> 0:31:01.240 Last year, I didn't think, you know, I'm thinking that's 0:31:01.320 --> 0:31:03.560 not really a super Bowl maybe not a super Bowl. 0:31:03.280 --> 0:31:06.720 Team, but that sixteen team, I thought that was a super. 0:31:06.520 --> 0:31:08.760 Bowl even more than seven because O seven was another 0:31:08.800 --> 0:31:11.840 year wherething it lined up for him. They had a 0:31:11.880 --> 0:31:14.600 home get had a buy at home game against the Giants, 0:31:15.040 --> 0:31:17.600 and they and they just like they get beat there 0:31:17.720 --> 0:31:18.600 and it just. 0:31:18.560 --> 0:31:20.040 Beat beat him twice. 0:31:20.160 --> 0:31:22.440 You beat him twice, and so you're everybody felt very 0:31:22.440 --> 0:31:25.080 confident going into that game and Dallas could win it 0:31:25.600 --> 0:31:27.880 and then to lose it. Now, of course, the Giants 0:31:27.920 --> 0:31:30.440 went on to win the championship. Their defensive front was 0:31:30.520 --> 0:31:32.680 maybe one of the best defensive fronts I've watched in person. 0:31:32.720 --> 0:31:36.360 They were really really good. But man, that was another one, 0:31:36.400 --> 0:31:38.680 and I would even say kind of surprise. Nobody mentioned 0:31:38.960 --> 0:31:41.800 dek caught it like that moment was disgusting. I know 0:31:41.840 --> 0:31:44.760 you mentioned from from a standpoint, yeah, but from a 0:31:44.800 --> 0:31:48.400 discuss standpoint, I think more the more I saw the 0:31:48.440 --> 0:31:50.800 replay and where I was kind of disgusted by something 0:31:50.800 --> 0:31:53.360 like they got that got stolen from them, that that 0:31:53.480 --> 0:31:54.360 should have been a catch. 0:31:54.400 --> 0:31:56.800 What was that plane ride like back home after that game? 0:31:56.840 --> 0:31:57.680 After the Dead game. 0:31:58.280 --> 0:31:59.960 I'll tell you what was weird about it, Like say 0:32:00.120 --> 0:32:02.480 Shannon and I were going through the crowd. We got 0:32:02.880 --> 0:32:06.680 trapped sometime out we were on the sidelines and we 0:32:06.720 --> 0:32:10.080 couldn't I don't know, we lost track, we couldn't get 0:32:10.080 --> 0:32:12.520 we couldn't navigate. Now Shannon and I are going through 0:32:12.640 --> 0:32:16.360 the crowd, like we're literally like trying to get through 0:32:16.480 --> 0:32:19.200 the packer fans that were so you're walking through the 0:32:19.200 --> 0:32:21.880 concourse and then they wouldn't let us in. You know, 0:32:21.920 --> 0:32:23.800 we're like you have so many clothes on, you're digging 0:32:23.840 --> 0:32:25.240 for your officials pass. 0:32:25.040 --> 0:32:26.120 Like fifteen degrees. 0:32:26.320 --> 0:32:27.640 It wasn't that bad, actually it was. 0:32:27.880 --> 0:32:29.720 It was actually pretty I think it was like twenty something. 0:32:30.200 --> 0:32:38.160 I was but you know, anywhere anywhere you're like geeze, 0:32:38.480 --> 0:32:39.080 Like that game. 0:32:39.160 --> 0:32:41.400 That game was just shocking. That they got the call wrong. 0:32:41.560 --> 0:32:44.200 That's where I was. But I'll tell you what it was. 0:32:44.360 --> 0:32:47.320 It's disappointing, right, what do we what's this disgusting? 0:32:47.480 --> 0:32:48.480 Makes you want to throw up? 0:32:48.760 --> 0:32:51.000 The drafts we had when I was in player personnel 0:32:51.240 --> 0:32:54.120 in two thousand and one, two thousand and one, two, 0:32:54.840 --> 0:32:59.000 those three years, those those five and eleven teams, I've 0:32:59.080 --> 0:33:02.440 never been more to gusted with how we performed, never 0:33:02.520 --> 0:33:04.480 been disgusted. I mean when you start to talk about 0:33:04.480 --> 0:33:07.560 a professionally on that how I'm like, We've got to 0:33:07.560 --> 0:33:08.280 be better than this. 0:33:08.280 --> 0:33:10.440 And we weren't. We really really weren't. 0:33:10.480 --> 0:33:12.959 And you know it, but it got you know, Bill Parcells, 0:33:12.960 --> 0:33:14.719 it got us. You know, maybe go in the right direction. 0:33:15.200 --> 0:33:18.920 But that was some really disgusting times for me personally. 0:33:19.360 --> 0:33:22.200 I go, because I've I've done this thing right before. 0:33:22.400 --> 0:33:23.680 I've seen it done right before. 0:33:23.720 --> 0:33:25.800 We just didn't it right, We just and that was 0:33:25.840 --> 0:33:27.040 disgusting real quick. 0:33:27.080 --> 0:33:29.400 I also mention you said, what was the locker room 0:33:29.520 --> 0:33:30.440 like after that game? 0:33:30.760 --> 0:33:31.200 That was? 0:33:31.360 --> 0:33:34.840 It was maybe that was maybe the only time I've 0:33:34.880 --> 0:33:38.640 ever seen Jason Witten kind of loses cool with the media. 0:33:39.560 --> 0:33:41.800 We I remember we were walking in and just you 0:33:41.840 --> 0:33:44.520 got to understand. When you're in the locker room after 0:33:44.560 --> 0:33:47.040 the game, there's a lot going on. Players are trying 0:33:47.040 --> 0:33:49.600 to get to in front of the showers, and media 0:33:49.680 --> 0:33:51.800 is kind of coming in, and it's a if a 0:33:51.840 --> 0:33:54.240 playoff game, there's a ton of media, so there's all 0:33:54.280 --> 0:33:57.440 these clogs and typically most of the players they just 0:33:57.480 --> 0:33:59.280 kind of understand, excuse me, guy, excuse me, excuse you 0:33:59.280 --> 0:34:03.240 getting trying to get Jason was like, guys, get the 0:34:03.440 --> 0:34:06.120 you know, and he's like, and I'd never seen him 0:34:06.240 --> 0:34:08.840 lose his cool like that with the media, but I 0:34:08.920 --> 0:34:09.560 understood it. 0:34:09.760 --> 0:34:12.360 I think they all were. And Dez was just like, 0:34:13.080 --> 0:34:15.400 he just set his locker with his on. 0:34:15.840 --> 0:34:16.480 I remember that. 0:34:16.640 --> 0:34:17.920 Yeah, it's just like that. 0:34:18.120 --> 0:34:21.080 I think I think that the level of disgust is 0:34:21.080 --> 0:34:23.719 the right word, the level of feeling like you had 0:34:23.719 --> 0:34:26.480 something stolen from you. I think they all felt like, 0:34:26.760 --> 0:34:29.200 this was our moment. We had this game, this was 0:34:29.280 --> 0:34:31.680 our moment we were ready to move on to that 0:34:31.719 --> 0:34:35.759 next level and finally exercise all these demons. And and 0:34:35.880 --> 0:34:38.640 basically that ref stole it from us, and that that 0:34:38.760 --> 0:34:41.239 was the impression I got. They felt that locker room 0:34:41.280 --> 0:34:44.399 felt more angry than maybe I've ever seen a locker 0:34:44.480 --> 0:34:45.160 room after a game. 0:34:45.800 --> 0:34:46.879 It's crazy. Yeah. 0:34:47.280 --> 0:34:50.479 All right, well, let's do one last word real quick 0:34:50.520 --> 0:34:51.600 to change the vibe. 0:34:51.800 --> 0:34:52.839 So this is just. 0:34:54.480 --> 0:34:57.120 I feel disgusting right now in discussing. All right, I'll 0:34:57.120 --> 0:34:59.280 start with you, Nick. Relief. 0:35:00.640 --> 0:35:06.160 Really, when I got out of here, let me think 0:35:06.200 --> 0:35:10.080 you didn't really leave it exactly. I'm still here. Relief. 0:35:10.440 --> 0:35:14.520 Oh man, that's a that's a tough one. I this 0:35:14.600 --> 0:35:16.440 is going to be an easy answer. But since in 0:35:16.480 --> 0:35:20.160 San Francisco week, the worst plane trip we had last year, 0:35:20.200 --> 0:35:23.040 in my opinion, was San Francisco because we got back 0:35:23.080 --> 0:35:25.759 at I think four fifteen in the morning. I had 0:35:25.760 --> 0:35:27.400 an hour drive to get home, and then I had 0:35:27.400 --> 0:35:29.560 to be on a nine am podcast the very next day, 0:35:30.080 --> 0:35:32.839 and so did that nine am podcast. Off of maybe 0:35:32.840 --> 0:35:35.520 two hours sleep, went back home, and when I laid 0:35:35.520 --> 0:35:39.120 in that bed forty two to ten, everything in my 0:35:39.239 --> 0:35:42.479 mind gone relief and I slept for probably ten hours 0:35:42.520 --> 0:35:44.960 that day. I was like, something big could happen. I 0:35:44.960 --> 0:35:47.960 don't care that Patrick and Nickel have it covered. That 0:35:48.080 --> 0:35:50.800 was like I'm sleeping today. That was that was my relief. 0:35:51.040 --> 0:35:51.360 Relief. 0:35:51.360 --> 0:35:52.759 I never had to go on a road trip again 0:35:52.800 --> 0:35:59.280 after Buffalo. That was relief was I talked about likef 0:35:59.280 --> 0:36:00.839 and the fans was a fun part. 0:36:01.280 --> 0:36:03.000 But now that I don't like. 0:36:03.080 --> 0:36:05.759 After that Buffalo trip and Derek agreed that we can 0:36:05.840 --> 0:36:08.840 have great pre and post game shows in the studio. 0:36:08.719 --> 0:36:10.880 I remember that trip very vividly. 0:36:11.000 --> 0:36:13.239 I swear to God, Rob Phillips and I when that 0:36:13.280 --> 0:36:16.240 door opened, I looked at Rob Phillips, are you ready? 0:36:15.920 --> 0:36:18.719 And when we landed in Houston and that door opened, 0:36:18.760 --> 0:36:20.640 I said, we're jumping onto the tarmac, let's go. 0:36:21.200 --> 0:36:22.040 And he was with me. 0:36:22.400 --> 0:36:24.400 He was like, let's go, and and we kind of 0:36:24.440 --> 0:36:26.759 were like, you know, and no, we'll get in trouble, man, 0:36:26.800 --> 0:36:30.719 we really will.

Who do you think is 0:44:20.360 --> 0:44:21.520 gonna win? Give me a final score? 0:44:21.520 --> 0:44:21.840 Start with you. 0:44:21.920 --> 0:44:23.920 Nick Evar had to take the games away on Fridays 0:44:23.920 --> 0:44:25.719 because I kept winning. But I'm five and one on 0:44:26.520 --> 0:44:28.680 I'm just letting you know I'm taking the Niners this week. 0:44:28.719 --> 0:44:30.160 I do think it's gonna be a close game, though, 0:44:30.200 --> 0:44:31.640 I think there is gonna be some confidence that the 0:44:31.640 --> 0:44:33.879 Cowboys can take out of this one. But the thing 0:44:33.920 --> 0:44:37.560 I look at specifically is the cowboys inability to create 0:44:37.600 --> 0:44:40.600 pressure and how that has affected or not affected the 0:44:40.719 --> 0:44:43.000 Niners offense this year, and so for that, I think 0:44:43.520 --> 0:44:45.080 I think the Niners want a close one here. 0:44:46.120 --> 0:44:47.960 I'm gonna pick the Niners as well. I'm gonna go 0:44:48.040 --> 0:44:50.600 twenty six to sixteen on the final. 0:44:53.560 --> 0:44:56.719 The love for the Star wants me to pick them, 0:44:56.920 --> 0:45:01.040 but my head and what I've seen choose otherwise. So 0:45:01.280 --> 0:45:03.359 I think though it's gonna be a close game, though 0:45:03.360 --> 0:45:08.560 in my mind I see it being twenty three twenty Niners. 0:45:09.160 --> 0:45:12.360 This is when I rely on the football gods and 0:45:12.480 --> 0:45:15.879 how they typically operate. Every time everybody thinks one thing, 0:45:16.120 --> 0:45:18.799 I think the other does the other. And that's why 0:45:18.840 --> 0:45:21.600 I'm thinking Dallas wins this game on the road. They 0:45:21.880 --> 0:45:25.640 they shake that demon that is San Francisco and they 0:45:25.640 --> 0:45:28.560 get a win on the road twenty seventeen, and we'll 0:45:28.560 --> 0:45:29.600 see where it goes from there. 0:45:29.680 --> 0:45:31.160 Pittsburgh mak a Pittsburgh game. 0:45:31.320 --> 0:45:32.600 I did say they were gonna win one of these 0:45:32.640 --> 0:45:34.080 two games they lost to Detroit. 0:45:34.120 --> 0:45:34.960 Once they got to win this. 0:45:35.520 --> 0:45:38.800 We all had the Cowboys scoring twenty points or less. 0:45:39.280 --> 0:45:41.480 They've only done that twice this season, and they have 0:45:41.560 --> 0:45:44.799 not done that since the loss to the Ravens. It's 0:45:44.920 --> 0:45:46.879 scoring more than twenty, yes, more than twenty. 0:45:46.960 --> 0:45:50.400 Yeah, so man, But what we know is after the 0:45:50.480 --> 0:45:53.319 bye they get it rolled all of a sudden, the roll. 0:45:53.440 --> 0:45:55.560 And you just told us Dalvin Cook you expect him, 0:45:55.680 --> 0:45:57.640 so hey, here we go. We got Dalvin Cook, we 0:45:57.719 --> 0:45:59.640 got CD and and back. 0:46:00.600 --> 0:46:01.239 Yeah, we'll see. 0:46:01.719 --> 0:46:03.640 But the point is, I think there are gonna be 0:46:03.640 --> 0:46:05.960 some differences. We'll see some differences. Rather whether they win 0:46:06.080 --> 0:46:08.120 or lose. I think we'll see some differences. We'll see 0:46:08.160 --> 0:46:10.520 some things that they've changed up, and hopefully it's enough 0:46:10.600 --> 0:46:14.080 and we'll see how that goes. I do, I do too, 0:46:14.320 --> 0:46:16.320 and we'll be back on money. We'll tell you what all. 0:46:16.239 --> 0:46:19.520 Right, what happened to the fan questions?
