So I 0:00:55.400 --> 0:00:59.040 think we're doing I'm doing great. Thanks. I wasn't sure 0:00:59.040 --> 0:01:00.760 where you were going at. Yeah, it was a very weird. 0:01:01.080 --> 0:01:04.120 I'm a weird guy, great, Hinda, just a little bit. 0:01:04.160 --> 0:01:07.440 I'm you know, I've got weird tendency sometimes you do. 0:01:07.640 --> 0:01:12.560 It's the holiday season, you know, it's Christmas time. It's 0:01:13.040 --> 0:01:18.120 that time of year. There's a cool in the air. Well, 0:01:18.240 --> 0:01:20.360 you guys come in and your chip more chipper than 0:01:20.400 --> 0:01:22.440 I am. I feel like right now you guys are 0:01:22.440 --> 0:01:24.200 like taking the level up and not so maybe I 0:01:24.200 --> 0:01:30.080 need to step it up. Happy Holidays, happy, you know what. 0:01:30.120 --> 0:01:31.760 I'm always in this, you know what. I'm kind of 0:01:31.760 --> 0:01:36.039 sad about it. I'm sad that even though we can 0:01:36.120 --> 0:01:39.360 watch the original, you know, like you see a movie 0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:40.760 and you like it, and you kind of wish there 0:01:40.800 --> 0:01:42.800 was a sequel, even though it won't be as good. 0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:45.040 You just want to see more. You're talking about Cowboys 0:01:45.120 --> 0:01:48.600 versus Indie. No, No, that one was like Rocky five 0:01:48.680 --> 0:01:52.120 to me, bad I didn't happen. Um No. I think 0:01:53.520 --> 0:01:57.680 the video that Kent did with the with Jason Garrett 0:01:57.720 --> 0:02:00.360 talking to the kids last year, and I don't think 0:02:00.360 --> 0:02:02.240 we're gonna do it again. And I'm sad about that. 0:02:02.400 --> 0:02:04.480 But I understand when it's really good, you don't want to, 0:02:04.680 --> 0:02:06.560 you know, but I wish there would be another one. 0:02:06.640 --> 0:02:08.320 You know. I will say this, though, I don't think 0:02:08.360 --> 0:02:11.760 there's anything wrong with kind of Resurfacing's fine. I was 0:02:11.800 --> 0:02:14.280 pretty I'll go back and watch a movie. I'm the 0:02:14.520 --> 0:02:17.040 I'm the exact opposite of you, Like I don't I 0:02:17.080 --> 0:02:19.440 hate sequels, Like I can only think of like two 0:02:19.520 --> 0:02:22.040 or three that are good because, like you, just you 0:02:22.040 --> 0:02:24.520 don't need to beat a good idea into the ground 0:02:24.600 --> 0:02:27.520 till it's not good anymore. Just reflect on the old 0:02:27.560 --> 0:02:29.640 one that was great. Like you can go watch the 0:02:29.880 --> 0:02:33.000 Jason Garrett Christmas video whenever you want, or no, I know, 0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:34.920 but like or any or I'm trying to think of 0:02:34.919 --> 0:02:37.600 a you know, we don't need to see another lethal weapon. 0:02:37.680 --> 0:02:39.920 You can just go watch the great original one. I 0:02:40.000 --> 0:02:42.440 get a Rocky you did need to see Rocky three? 0:02:42.520 --> 0:02:44.960 You did need to see Rocky flour. I mean that 0:02:45.040 --> 0:02:48.359 might be like, Okay, there's something something about guys from 0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:52.800 y'all's generation like Rocky, Like well, I don't know why 0:02:52.880 --> 0:02:56.000 y'all love Rocky so much? Great you know anyways, But 0:02:56.360 --> 0:02:58.360 I will say this, A couple of weeks ago, I 0:02:58.440 --> 0:03:00.600 thought about that video and I was sitting there in 0:03:00.680 --> 0:03:03.239 Garrett's press conference. It's like a Friday. It wasn't one 0:03:03.240 --> 0:03:07.120 of his best and I started thinking about that video 0:03:07.280 --> 0:03:10.600 and like you can make almost any answer, and I'm 0:03:10.600 --> 0:03:12.560 in the back like laughing, and one of the PR 0:03:12.600 --> 0:03:14.840 guys is like laughing, like like looking at me. I'm 0:03:14.919 --> 0:03:18.320 just like because Garrett says something about, you know, he 0:03:18.360 --> 0:03:21.280 works really well in groups, you know, valuable part of 0:03:21.280 --> 0:03:25.280 our football team. That could be any anything, but it 0:03:25.360 --> 0:03:27.400 was like, it just works really really well. You know, 0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:29.280 he's not he doesn't get a lot of the spotlight. 0:03:29.280 --> 0:03:31.840 And I'm thinking, like the question of like what do 0:03:31.919 --> 0:03:35.360 you think about you know, Blitzen, you know what type 0:03:35.360 --> 0:03:37.560 of reindeers heaters? Just like doesn't get a lot of pup, 0:03:37.640 --> 0:03:39.640 really doesn't. And I just start laughing. But he's about 0:03:39.800 --> 0:03:41.280 he's been on a team for a long time. He's 0:03:41.280 --> 0:03:42.840 been a valuable member of this team for a long time. 0:03:42.960 --> 0:03:45.880 Was talking about like Damien Wilson or something like we'll 0:03:45.960 --> 0:03:48.720 let him join in our reindeer games. Exactly. All right, 0:03:48.760 --> 0:03:50.240 let's get to it. We got a lot of different 0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:52.680 things we want to hit today. I do have a 0:03:52.720 --> 0:03:54.200 big topic I want to hit a little bit late. 0:03:54.200 --> 0:03:56.440 I want to talk about this quarterback and really talk 0:03:56.440 --> 0:03:59.240 about quarterbacks around the NFC. I think that's something that 0:03:59.320 --> 0:04:02.640 we haven't really talked much about. Can I just say yay, 0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:05.720 all right? Good arguing about Dak my favorite thing to do. 0:04:05.960 --> 0:04:07.960 Before we get there, though, I would like to talk 0:04:07.960 --> 0:04:10.400 a little bit about Jason. I'm sorry about Jerry Jones. 0:04:10.400 --> 0:04:13.560 He had a conversation here in the local radio station, 0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:16.520 the Fan that he does every Tuesday morning, and this 0:04:16.520 --> 0:04:17.960 morning had a couple of things that he hit that 0:04:18.000 --> 0:04:20.240 I want us to talk about. First talk called Charlton. 0:04:21.279 --> 0:04:24.479 He's been an inactive for the last two weeks, even 0:04:24.480 --> 0:04:26.800 though he's been healthy for the last two weeks. And 0:04:26.800 --> 0:04:29.600 I'll start the discussion for those who really aren't kind 0:04:29.640 --> 0:04:31.960 of don't know what's going on here. Can you give 0:04:32.160 --> 0:04:34.640 people a sense as to why. I know it's not 0:04:34.760 --> 0:04:38.640 completely known why, but what are the things you've heard 0:04:39.080 --> 0:04:41.160 and what do you think is going on here as 0:04:41.200 --> 0:04:43.280 to why this guy's been inactive for two weeks when 0:04:43.320 --> 0:04:45.760 he's been healthy. Well, Number one, he's not producing. I 0:04:45.760 --> 0:04:48.039 mean that's what it comes in practice him, I mean 0:04:48.640 --> 0:04:50.599 mainly in the games. I mean he doesn't does he 0:04:50.640 --> 0:04:52.760 have one sack or something like that? I mean, is 0:04:52.760 --> 0:04:55.479 that appreciably different than what you've gotten from Randy Gregory. 0:04:56.080 --> 0:04:59.960 Randy Gregory's got yes, five sacks, yes, And Randy Gregory 0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:04.679 is second on the team in quarterback pressures behind DeMarcus 0:05:04.720 --> 0:05:07.200 Lawrence and not by all, not a lot actually, And 0:05:07.240 --> 0:05:09.920 so he does get pressure and he and he's a 0:05:09.960 --> 0:05:12.880 little bit more active now he's a penalty machine. We 0:05:12.960 --> 0:05:16.039 know that. I mean, and in opportunity times, very very 0:05:16.080 --> 0:05:19.200 bad times. But um yeah, I think I think you're 0:05:19.200 --> 0:05:22.040 getting more from him. I mean, with with those numbers 0:05:22.080 --> 0:05:24.480 be the same. I guess the way I should have 0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:27.000 asked that is, do you think that if Taco would 0:05:27.000 --> 0:05:29.560 have had the same opportunities because Taco's miss games, Yeah, 0:05:29.600 --> 0:05:31.359 you'd think if he'd had the same opportunities, maybe he 0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:33.920 has the same kind of conduction at Randy R I don't. Actually, 0:05:33.920 --> 0:05:36.200 the thing about it is is want to compare Taco 0:05:36.240 --> 0:05:39.360 to anybody would be Duran's armstrong and their numbers are 0:05:39.480 --> 0:05:42.560 very comparable. And I think that's the problem is that 0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:44.680 you know, he's a rookie, fourth Rount pick, tackles the 0:05:44.760 --> 0:05:47.960 second year more expectations, and I just don't think that 0:05:48.040 --> 0:05:51.680 he's he's done much. And you know, we saw this 0:05:51.800 --> 0:05:53.760 last year or was it two years ago or seven, 0:05:53.800 --> 0:05:56.560 I don't remember, but you know, Benson Mayowell was a 0:05:56.600 --> 0:05:59.040 guy that they had some high hopes for and they're 0:05:59.080 --> 0:06:01.960 not afraid to put him in an inactive healthy scratch. 0:06:02.279 --> 0:06:06.000 We don't one hundred percent and know the details, and 0:06:06.279 --> 0:06:08.320 that's by design. They try to keep that stuff in 0:06:08.400 --> 0:06:11.280 house as much as they can. But it's pretty obvious 0:06:11.320 --> 0:06:16.080 that Taco has drawn the ire of this coaching staff. 0:06:16.200 --> 0:06:20.960 Whether that's certainly, production is part of it, because if 0:06:20.960 --> 0:06:23.360 you're just getting, if you're racking up sacks, nobody cares. 0:06:23.400 --> 0:06:27.719 I mean, that's line one. But he's not. And so attitude, 0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:33.680 maybe entitlement, maybe you know, first round pick, maybe feel 0:06:33.720 --> 0:06:35.080 like he's a little bit too big for his britches. 0:06:35.120 --> 0:06:39.599 Rod Marinelli had this to say. Somebody asked him about Charlton. 0:06:40.520 --> 0:06:42.640 This was before the Colts game. He said, well, we 0:06:42.720 --> 0:06:47.360 just keep moving along like well okay, he said, he said, 0:06:47.440 --> 0:06:49.440 it's it's kind of been out there. It's not something 0:06:49.480 --> 0:06:50.840 I want to talk about. I'll just leave it at that. 0:06:50.880 --> 0:06:53.760 I'd rather talk about our guys, our two tackles, Daniel 0:06:53.800 --> 0:06:57.560 Ross and um and Antoine Woods or excuse me, Mollie Collins. Yeah, no, 0:06:57.880 --> 0:07:03.800 his his unwillingness to talk about it speaks enough. He's 0:07:03.839 --> 0:07:07.240 talking about two guys that are kind of you know, 0:07:07.839 --> 0:07:10.440 under the radar type guys that are playing really well, 0:07:10.560 --> 0:07:13.640 working hard, hustling, which is his big thing, right, which 0:07:13.680 --> 0:07:15.440 again you know, I don't want to put words in 0:07:15.440 --> 0:07:18.640 Taco Charlton's mouth. I want to be careful about that. 0:07:18.720 --> 0:07:21.600 But like I said, whether it's entitlement, you know, first 0:07:21.680 --> 0:07:25.400 round pick, thinking he's better or more deserving than he is. 0:07:25.440 --> 0:07:30.200 Whether it's attitude, maybe you know, Randy Gregory's taking snaps 0:07:30.240 --> 0:07:32.120 away from him in the game plan and he thinks 0:07:32.120 --> 0:07:34.720 that's BS. I don't know, but I would guess it 0:07:34.840 --> 0:07:38.280 is something related to that, and it has clearly pissed 0:07:38.320 --> 0:07:42.280 the coaching staff off. Jason Garrett two weeks in a row, 0:07:42.320 --> 0:07:44.800 has said we want them to earn the opportunity, which 0:07:45.320 --> 0:07:47.320 to say that about a first round pick is just 0:07:47.480 --> 0:07:51.560 not good. You would assume that that he's going to 0:07:51.640 --> 0:07:53.280 do that regardless, because he should be one of the 0:07:53.280 --> 0:07:55.720 most talented guys in that rotation just by virtue of 0:07:55.720 --> 0:07:59.880 being the twenty eighth overall pick. Which the interesting thing 0:08:00.040 --> 0:08:03.440 again this is just me completely speculating, but I feel 0:08:03.440 --> 0:08:05.800 like I have a pretty good idea of how things 0:08:05.800 --> 0:08:09.600 work in this organization. So this is the coaches, they 0:08:09.640 --> 0:08:11.600 take his jersey away from him two games in a row. 0:08:12.240 --> 0:08:14.400 And you know, Jerry and Stephen Jones sit in on 0:08:14.440 --> 0:08:17.880 these meetings every Monday, and the coach and it's it's 0:08:17.920 --> 0:08:21.520 so funny, like you can hear these talking points. Case 0:08:21.600 --> 0:08:24.960 in point, yesterday Jason Garrett said to us, you know, 0:08:25.160 --> 0:08:27.120 in the side after his press conference, He's like, well, 0:08:27.480 --> 0:08:29.120 this game kind of reminded me a little bit of 0:08:29.120 --> 0:08:31.920 the Tennessee game, and here's why. And that literally like 0:08:31.960 --> 0:08:34.079 at the same time, Stephen Jones goes on the fan 0:08:34.160 --> 0:08:35.760 and he's like, well, this game kind of reminded me 0:08:35.800 --> 0:08:38.120 of the Tennessee game and here's why. So you know 0:08:38.160 --> 0:08:40.640 they have the same reasons, yeah, exact of course. And 0:08:40.679 --> 0:08:42.760 they have these you know, they have these staff meetings. 0:08:42.800 --> 0:08:44.880 They go over the game, the coaches give their grades, 0:08:44.880 --> 0:08:46.400 they talk this is what went wrong, this is what 0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:49.680 went well, and you know, the front office offers their 0:08:49.720 --> 0:08:52.080 ideas and it all kind of comes together to a 0:08:52.160 --> 0:08:55.120 talking point or a game plan for the coming week. 0:08:55.440 --> 0:08:58.520 And for Jerry Jones to come on here today and say, well, 0:08:58.520 --> 0:09:00.439 you know, you look back and maybe talk should have 0:09:00.440 --> 0:09:03.280 had a jersey, that's to me that suggests like, well, 0:09:03.320 --> 0:09:06.240 all right, I'm going along with what you're saying. Coaching staff, 0:09:06.280 --> 0:09:08.800 Like I hear you're like, you're not happy with Taco. Great, 0:09:08.840 --> 0:09:11.320 he's a first round pick. I am. I'd kind of 0:09:11.320 --> 0:09:13.080 like to see him if I'm paying this guy. And 0:09:13.240 --> 0:09:16.160 by the way, the results this last week suggested that 0:09:16.440 --> 0:09:18.200 you could use help. Yeah, Like, I don't know if 0:09:18.200 --> 0:09:20.120 he's gonna be the help, but he's what you got. 0:09:20.240 --> 0:09:22.360 He's a first round pick. You could have used help 0:09:22.440 --> 0:09:24.320 this week. Maybe you need to get him out there. 0:09:24.559 --> 0:09:29.080 And I think that's that's Jerry Jones's gentle way of saying, like, ah, 0:09:29.120 --> 0:09:31.640 I don't know how I feel about sitting this out there. Yeah, yeah, 0:09:31.760 --> 0:09:34.520 one out there and he's been out now for two games, 0:09:34.720 --> 0:09:37.600 and you know, and they've been winning. You know, it's 0:09:37.600 --> 0:09:39.520 one thing to pull pull him out, and that's not 0:09:39.559 --> 0:09:42.320 doing anything, and he's hurt and he's you know, and 0:09:42.440 --> 0:09:45.920 this team's having success. But it's like, okay, you know, 0:09:45.920 --> 0:09:47.679 it's a wake up call. I think I think he 0:09:48.120 --> 0:09:50.439 should get the message loud and clear. Let's see how 0:09:50.440 --> 0:09:54.360 he plays after that. And if I remember Nawa, I mean, 0:09:54.440 --> 0:09:56.640 I say this because here's a guy that they had 0:09:56.640 --> 0:09:59.000 some high hopes for they draft. I mean they signed 0:09:59.080 --> 0:10:01.439 him as a free agent restricted free agent and gave 0:10:01.480 --> 0:10:03.839 him some money, and then they benched him, and then 0:10:03.840 --> 0:10:05.720 he came back and he might have led the team 0:10:05.720 --> 0:10:07.760 in sacks. He might have I mean six. I mean 0:10:07.800 --> 0:10:09.480 it's not a lot, but he had six. I think. 0:10:09.520 --> 0:10:13.400 So I think they're wanting to see what Taco does 0:10:13.440 --> 0:10:16.079 as they come back, and you know, all eyes will 0:10:16.120 --> 0:10:18.880 be on him. I will say, I think we all 0:10:18.920 --> 0:10:21.720 know by by now, Rod Marinelli carries a pretty big 0:10:21.720 --> 0:10:24.600 stick around here, you know, I mean his philosophies and 0:10:24.679 --> 0:10:28.760 his desire. Yeah, and it drives their draft, their drafting, 0:10:28.800 --> 0:10:32.200 their decision making there. So I'll be curious to see. 0:10:32.800 --> 0:10:35.400 I mean if if Rod Marinelli is just absolutely not 0:10:35.440 --> 0:10:37.080 having it, He's like, I don't want to play this guy, 0:10:37.320 --> 0:10:40.360 and this guy's more deserving. Like what wins out there, 0:10:40.480 --> 0:10:43.559 it's it's a little mini storyline to watch in this game, 0:10:43.679 --> 0:10:48.440 and I don't for the most part, Jerry wins. Yeah 0:10:48.440 --> 0:10:52.240 nobly of course, of course he can be convinced, but 0:10:52.600 --> 0:10:56.480 don't convince him ultimately, right, yeah, like t O like 0:10:56.559 --> 0:11:00.400 he he won, you know, well, he won in his lead, 0:11:00.440 --> 0:11:03.760 but eventually he had to go right, yeah, but I 0:11:03.800 --> 0:11:06.640 mean Parcels didn't want him, and what Parcels that was 0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:08.840 here when he was cut? But when he was cut though, 0:11:09.280 --> 0:11:12.640 Gary notoriously lights on the napkin. Yeah, I love you, 0:11:12.960 --> 0:11:16.240 but you gotta go, bro. No, I know, I'm just saying, 0:11:16.840 --> 0:11:19.320 you know what, He's always said that too. If you've 0:11:19.360 --> 0:11:22.440 heard this a thousand times. If there's a tie, break 0:11:22.640 --> 0:11:25.480 break it right, yeah, which and yeah, obviously break it 0:11:25.520 --> 0:11:28.400 amongst yourselves. If not, I break it here we go. 0:11:28.840 --> 0:11:32.520 So and I don't know, it's an interesting subplot to 0:11:32.559 --> 0:11:35.000 this game, which I mean, even if he plays, I 0:11:35.040 --> 0:11:37.840 don't I don't really believe he's gonna like take over 0:11:37.880 --> 0:11:39.920 the game. That's my question. Do you think he can help? 0:11:40.040 --> 0:11:42.000 Right now? Do you think that do you think that 0:11:42.040 --> 0:11:45.319 he having another pass rusher can help? And even if 0:11:45.679 --> 0:11:46.920 and I don't want you to get too far to this, 0:11:46.960 --> 0:11:49.640 because we're gonna talk about this next defensive tackle position, 0:11:49.960 --> 0:11:52.160 but do you think that he could help? And that 0:11:52.240 --> 0:11:55.960 gives you a little more flexibility to flexibility with Crawford 0:11:56.160 --> 0:11:57.920 to where he's spending a little bit more time and 0:11:58.000 --> 0:12:01.040 tackle than an end. He helps. I mean, it's like 0:12:01.080 --> 0:12:04.360 a taco, you know, get full on one taco. You 0:12:04.440 --> 0:12:06.160 have to get something to how big it is, right, 0:12:06.280 --> 0:12:09.439 nobody orders a taco. No one does one time. That's 0:12:09.440 --> 0:12:11.840 pretty true. Right to get at least two you get 0:12:11.880 --> 0:12:14.240 to get because you want the variety, three kinds of time. 0:12:14.480 --> 0:12:16.720 It comes with something else. Right, most things that you 0:12:16.840 --> 0:12:19.319 order comes like with a taco, which is good. It's 0:12:19.320 --> 0:12:22.200 a complimentary thing. That's what you need, be complimentary. Are 0:12:22.200 --> 0:12:24.560 you just selling me taco will never be the man 0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:28.280 because you just can't have just one taco. Well, I 0:12:28.320 --> 0:12:31.280 feel I've been shown you that he's going to be 0:12:31.400 --> 0:12:35.520 the main course of anything. No, I've been holding out, hope, 0:12:35.600 --> 0:12:38.559 I've I've been Hey, I'm I'm the chief taco defender. 0:12:38.679 --> 0:12:41.480 Like I'm even back to draft before the draft, like 0:12:41.600 --> 0:12:43.800 you know everybody you know he doesn't have the raw 0:12:43.840 --> 0:12:47.280 athleticism of a Randy Gregor skin sweater. This is I 0:12:47.320 --> 0:12:51.400 get notre damn usually when I wear this. Either way, 0:12:52.120 --> 0:12:55.080 I defended him all you say, like, Okay, he's not 0:12:55.240 --> 0:12:58.240 he's not this just raw athlete, but he's he can 0:12:58.280 --> 0:13:00.880 play the position. Like you're not gonna get fifteen sack 0:13:00.920 --> 0:13:03.040 guy at the twenty eighth overall pick. He can do this, 0:13:03.120 --> 0:13:06.319 He can do that. I mean I have to fess 0:13:06.440 --> 0:13:08.800 up and say I haven't seen it, and he would 0:13:08.840 --> 0:13:11.040 help just in the sense that he's another pass rusher 0:13:11.040 --> 0:13:15.400 in uniform. But he hasn't made an impactful play it 0:13:15.440 --> 0:13:19.920 seems like since September. So I have a hard time 0:13:20.280 --> 0:13:23.200 buying it right now. Did Byron Jones have a player 0:13:23.400 --> 0:13:26.800 that was drafted around him that the Cowboys were like, man, 0:13:26.840 --> 0:13:28.959 they should have taken him. I mean, it always sucks 0:13:29.000 --> 0:13:33.520 to have a guy like Taco does that same position. Well, actually, 0:13:34.040 --> 0:13:38.200 what right? Yoh yeah, yes, they could have had t J. Watt. 0:13:38.280 --> 0:13:40.440 So he has eleven sacks right now, and gosh, how 0:13:40.520 --> 0:13:43.200 much better would this defense be right now? You got 0:13:43.320 --> 0:13:45.559 also factor in he's doing that a three four defense 0:13:45.559 --> 0:13:47.840 where he's playing outside, and that was a different thing. 0:13:47.920 --> 0:13:50.719 The whole reason, the whole reason he's not here is 0:13:50.760 --> 0:13:53.080 because they didn't think he could do that, right which 0:13:53.120 --> 0:13:55.800 who knows. I kind of think he could have. Maybe 0:13:55.800 --> 0:13:57.679 he could have. I'm just saying that needs to be noted, 0:13:57.720 --> 0:14:00.880 that that is a difference. To be fair. Um, the 0:14:01.000 --> 0:14:03.679 guy that got pegged with Byron a lot uh. We 0:14:03.800 --> 0:14:07.200 talked about Nelson Aghalore the Eagles took him instead, but 0:14:07.320 --> 0:14:10.040 then and I don't really he wasn't on the Cowboys radar, 0:14:10.160 --> 0:14:14.640 but Landon Collins was taken five picks later, so he 0:14:14.679 --> 0:14:18.199 should have saved somebody life safety issues. There's always there's 0:14:18.360 --> 0:14:20.600 if you look, If you look, you can find a 0:14:20.600 --> 0:14:23.360 guy that's balling out five spots after you. And it's 0:14:23.360 --> 0:14:26.120 probably every pick for every scene. Like you go to 0:14:26.200 --> 0:14:28.520 third round, there's somebody that was selected after your gay 0:14:28.560 --> 0:14:31.000 although round where you like that guy, I really better. 0:14:31.160 --> 0:14:34.600 I do think the Watt Taco thing is a little unique. 0:14:34.760 --> 0:14:37.840 It's the same position, it was the same range, the 0:14:37.920 --> 0:14:41.480 different kind of players. Sure, but I mean that's that's 0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:46.640 on your scouting department to say. I mean, I don't 0:14:46.680 --> 0:14:48.600 know you've been preaching that one for a couple of 0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:51.520 your apps. I mean we we don't know for sure 0:14:51.560 --> 0:14:54.040 that Watt would excel as a four three down end, 0:14:54.200 --> 0:14:57.200 but I bet you he'd have made more plays in 0:14:57.280 --> 0:14:59.640 the last thirty games and the other parts that too, 0:14:59.800 --> 0:15:01.680 may he made more play, he'd make more plays as 0:15:01.720 --> 0:15:04.520 a pass rusher, but on those rundowns he gets blasted 0:15:04.520 --> 0:15:06.240 off the line, so you can't really use him the 0:15:06.320 --> 0:15:07.720 way you want to use him in a four three 0:15:07.800 --> 0:15:10.000 defense or defense plays a lot of nickel, those kinds 0:15:10.040 --> 0:15:12.840 of things. All I'm saying is because there are different players, 0:15:12.880 --> 0:15:14.880 it's hard to make that comparison, But it certainly is 0:15:14.880 --> 0:15:16.600 hard to look up there and see those loving sacks 0:15:16.600 --> 0:15:18.720 and be like, youth made a right decision. Do you 0:15:18.760 --> 0:15:21.240 think they have a three or four knows because about 0:15:21.280 --> 0:15:23.080 three or four weeks ago, I don't know if we did. 0:15:23.160 --> 0:15:27.720 But Antoine, yeah, Antwinka play it trying to why you 0:15:27.960 --> 0:15:29.480 why are you trying to do? He's been doing this 0:15:29.480 --> 0:15:31.600 for the last couple of years. I know. I remember 0:15:31.680 --> 0:15:33.080 he was on that kick at the end of last year, 0:15:33.120 --> 0:15:35.240 like I didn't have a note, got everything they need, 0:15:35.320 --> 0:15:37.640 I didn't have one. I was like, I don't, I don't, 0:15:37.920 --> 0:15:41.480 I don't have that guy, Well, maybe I do. Let's 0:15:41.480 --> 0:15:43.480 take our first break. We'll come back. I do want 0:15:43.520 --> 0:15:45.520 to talk about the defensive tackle position. They got pushed 0:15:45.520 --> 0:15:47.360 around a little bit this last game, and we hadn't 0:15:47.360 --> 0:15:48.600 been used to seeing that. I want to talk to 0:15:48.600 --> 0:15:52.240 you guys about how concerned you are or fans should 0:15:52.280 --> 0:15:54.640 be about the defensive tackle position going four. We'll talk 0:15:54.640 --> 0:15:56.040 about that when we come right back. This is Dallas 0:15:56.080 --> 0:15:58.000 Cowboys dot Com Radio.

Slash Football. Back to the Break 0:18:26.520 --> 0:18:28.680 Welcome back. It's the second segment of The Break Life 0:18:28.680 --> 0:18:31.840 from the s WBC Mortgage studios. At the start, sometimes 0:18:31.880 --> 0:18:33.440 I wish you guys could just hear the kind of 0:18:33.440 --> 0:18:36.880 stuff we talk about in the Break. It varies. Sometimes 0:18:36.920 --> 0:18:41.440 it's about the politics. Yeah. Sometimes, well every once in 0:18:41.520 --> 0:18:43.520 a while, we've had a couple though it does vary. 0:18:43.720 --> 0:18:45.639 But hey, we had one. Yeah, oh no, we had 0:18:45.760 --> 0:18:47.800 like we were a little worried that it got on air, right, 0:18:47.840 --> 0:18:51.480 you weren't here here. Me Ag and Nick like just 0:18:51.640 --> 0:18:56.520 had a very civil, intelligent, productive political conversation, which is 0:18:56.640 --> 0:18:58.800 what doesn't happen in America. I know that's what I'm saying. 0:18:58.920 --> 0:19:01.360 And I was like, oh, we're different opinions too. Yeah, 0:19:01.480 --> 0:19:04.680 well no, man, not really, because it's civil. When everybody agrees, 0:19:04.760 --> 0:19:08.400 Yeah yeah, people disagree, that comes very uncivil. So it's 0:19:08.440 --> 0:19:12.359 always different. But I'm always glad that it's not going 0:19:12.440 --> 0:19:15.439 out over the air. Usually. Whatever we're talking about, hopefully 0:19:15.560 --> 0:19:20.359 Ken keeps us safe. Ken, he's our offense. All right, 0:19:20.440 --> 0:19:24.720 let's let's jump back in defensive tackles um last week. No, 0:19:24.840 --> 0:19:27.000 I don't think it's any any stretch to say that 0:19:27.040 --> 0:19:29.800 they struggled last week. You just look at how the 0:19:30.040 --> 0:19:32.359 Indianapolis Cults were able to run the ball, particularly up 0:19:32.400 --> 0:19:35.040
