Yeah, and so much for that. 0:00:16.440 --> 0:00:21.599 It's time for The Break on Dallas Cowboys dot Com 0:00:22.360 --> 0:00:29.080 with Nick Eatman, David Hellman, and bar Garcia and Derek Eagleton. Hello, guys, 0:00:29.320 --> 0:00:32.640 welcome to another episode of The Break. Thank you Derek 0:00:32.720 --> 0:00:37.160 for that awesome smile to shine and Brian, this room 0:00:37.240 --> 0:00:40.159 up a little more. Anyways, we're gonna have a fun 0:00:40.200 --> 0:00:42.280 show today. First of all, I want to start off 0:00:42.360 --> 0:00:47.640 with Dak Prescott and him being nominated by his teammates 0:00:47.720 --> 0:00:52.879 as Walter Peyton. I have trouble saying that name Man 0:00:52.920 --> 0:00:54.960 of the Year the Men of the Year award. He 0:00:55.080 --> 0:00:58.280 was nominated and it surprises us to him being chosen 0:00:58.320 --> 0:01:04.959 by his teammates compare us to other guys. Yes, really, yes? Why? 0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:07.320 I mean, I just I thought it would be other 0:01:07.560 --> 0:01:10.160 other people. I don't know, I wouldn't I wouldn't have 0:01:10.640 --> 0:01:13.360 thought that Dak Prescott would be the guy this year 0:01:13.400 --> 0:01:16.960 for that, but surprised me too. I can't come up 0:01:16.959 --> 0:01:20.440 with it, but I wasn't shocked at all. Surprise is 0:01:20.480 --> 0:01:23.959 not the right word. It's impressive, Like, I mean, definitely impress. 0:01:24.040 --> 0:01:28.320 Guys who get nominated for this award are typically long 0:01:28.400 --> 0:01:31.039 time NFL vets, and I know das in his third year, 0:01:31.040 --> 0:01:34.200 but I mean the Larry Fitzes of the world. Jason 0:01:34.360 --> 0:01:37.440 Witten won it in his what tenth season in the 0:01:37.480 --> 0:01:41.240 league something like that, um JJ Watt, who's obviously like 0:01:41.280 --> 0:01:44.880 a household name, and that's in part what helped him 0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:47.360 raise so much money for Hurricane Harvey relief. I mean, like, 0:01:47.960 --> 0:01:52.760 you know, these are usually very established, very uh well 0:01:52.800 --> 0:01:55.080 known name. So to see Dak get nominated for it 0:01:55.160 --> 0:01:58.320 at um what twenty four twenty five, it's not surprising, 0:01:58.360 --> 0:02:00.960 but very impressive and does deserved. I mean he does 0:02:00.960 --> 0:02:02.920 you know, he does a lot of work for cancer 0:02:03.000 --> 0:02:06.680 research and awareness, and you know, it seems like he's 0:02:06.680 --> 0:02:09.000 always doing something in the community. So I think it's deserved, 0:02:09.120 --> 0:02:11.880 but definitely impressive. Yeah, I think honestly, the reason why 0:02:11.880 --> 0:02:15.160 I wasn't shocked is because I think I agree with Dave. 0:02:15.200 --> 0:02:19.560 Typically these are more senior and and vet laden type 0:02:20.080 --> 0:02:24.080 you know award. But anyway, I do think that this 0:02:24.160 --> 0:02:26.919 was a situation where because of kind of how Dak 0:02:27.000 --> 0:02:29.359 hit the scene and hit the scene quickly and just 0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:32.880 immediately rose to this level of stardom, and then on 0:02:32.960 --> 0:02:35.760 top of that his story about his mom and his 0:02:35.800 --> 0:02:38.120 relationship with his mom and his mom dying of cancer. 0:02:38.360 --> 0:02:41.359 I think that took that whole part of him and 0:02:41.440 --> 0:02:45.040 integrating that into his platform, into his career down the 0:02:45.080 --> 0:02:48.200 two kind of became synonymous and and he's done a 0:02:48.200 --> 0:02:50.440 good job I think of using that platform to then 0:02:51.080 --> 0:02:54.760 invest a lot into bringing awareness to cancer research. So 0:02:54.919 --> 0:02:57.240 I think from that standpoint, I'm not really shocked, because 0:02:57.240 --> 0:02:58.959 I think it's just it just goes hand in hand 0:02:58.960 --> 0:03:01.079 with what he's in a short period of time that 0:03:01.280 --> 0:03:03.079 when you really look at it, he would be the 0:03:03.120 --> 0:03:07.359 one guy who, though, who does the most as far 0:03:07.400 --> 0:03:11.200 as like community things and you know, the whole cancer 0:03:11.360 --> 0:03:14.440 thing that you mentioned, and compared to his other teammates, 0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:17.359 I don't think there's anybody else that really does much 0:03:17.400 --> 0:03:19.320 like that. I don't know. There's a lot of guys 0:03:19.320 --> 0:03:21.080 that have foundations and a lot of guys that do 0:03:21.160 --> 0:03:24.880 some great work, and actually they do, but someone that 0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:27.520 you hear about a lot, you know, like for example, 0:03:27.600 --> 0:03:30.440 when Brendan Carr was here. You knew car did a 0:03:30.440 --> 0:03:33.240 lot of that stuff and help out, like reading at 0:03:33.280 --> 0:03:36.279 schools and stuff like that. I'm just saying, like most 0:03:36.480 --> 0:03:39.560 spoken of. Also, I think the fact that with Witten 0:03:40.080 --> 0:03:44.480 not here this year and shaun Lee Hurt and Frederick Hurt, 0:03:44.520 --> 0:03:46.800 I mean, I think that it also made more sense 0:03:46.840 --> 0:03:49.200 too for Dak kind of opened the door I guess 0:03:49.200 --> 0:03:51.200 if you will. It's not that he's not deserving. I 0:03:51.200 --> 0:03:53.720 think Alan Hurns would have been a good choice as well. 0:03:54.240 --> 0:03:58.040 But oh yeah about Cavon Frasier. Yeah, I mean, which, 0:03:58.600 --> 0:04:00.480 not to take anything away from Dak, but there are 0:04:00.600 --> 0:04:02.080 quite a few guys on this team that do a 0:04:02.120 --> 0:04:04.119 lot of a lot of cool work in the community. 0:04:04.440 --> 0:04:07.760 Good all right, now moving on to some good alf 0:04:07.840 --> 0:04:12.880 football trash talk and what's fun without some trash talking. 0:04:13.000 --> 0:04:16.360 And this week the Eagles decided to get that started 0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:19.440 their linebacker and helped me out with his name. We'll 0:04:19.520 --> 0:04:23.960 use that term very loosely too. What linebacker? Okay, Like 0:04:24.040 --> 0:04:28.080 that's a little extreme averages three tackles a game. Let's 0:04:28.160 --> 0:04:30.800 let's be a little bit. He's a captain and a starter. 0:04:30.960 --> 0:04:32.719 It's not like I understand it, but I'm saying his 0:04:32.760 --> 0:04:36.200 production says he's not a very valued member of the team. Literally, 0:04:36.200 --> 0:04:38.479 I mean a linebacker that average is three yards, I 0:04:38.480 --> 0:04:45.320 mean three tackle talking right, he's Damian Wilson. But that's 0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:49.480 exactly right. Let's again, Damian Wilson has started. We say 0:04:49.560 --> 0:04:52.520 his name first. Sure, I'm just some people that a 0:04:52.520 --> 0:04:55.400 little extreme to say he's barely a linebacker, like he's 0:04:55.400 --> 0:04:58.920 a player, gets some tackles and him Okay, cool, what's 0:04:58.920 --> 0:05:04.160 his name? Come help me out. I'm Gruzier Hill or 0:05:04.600 --> 0:05:06.720 Jay I'm sure Dave. We'll talk about that. We'll get 0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:10.800 into the defense about his excellent work whatever. That's part 0:05:10.839 --> 0:05:13.360 of the problem, right, that's the problem why he said 0:05:13.400 --> 0:05:15.200 what he said, Because we're sitting here and trying to 0:05:15.200 --> 0:05:16.960 figure out what his name is. He's trying to get 0:05:17.000 --> 0:05:20.280 a little pub Yeah, I mean a little bit. Maybe 0:05:20.279 --> 0:05:23.279 that's some headlines going. Well here, we're talking about it 0:05:23.360 --> 0:05:26.560 here today because he was a great player and he 0:05:26.600 --> 0:05:29.039 made sacks. But if you know, if you didn't, you 0:05:29.120 --> 0:05:30.680 have to get his name and say it a few times. 0:05:30.680 --> 0:05:33.880 But I love trash talk from good players, Like I 0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:37.400 love when good players say like I loved what Cam 0:05:37.480 --> 0:05:39.200 Jordan said at the end of the of the Saints, 0:05:39.240 --> 0:05:41.640 thing like that that creates intrigue, and remember this is 0:05:41.680 --> 0:05:44.640 all entertainment, So I love that kind of stuff. That 0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:47.120 stuff works for me. I just don't like the guy 0:05:47.200 --> 0:05:49.120 that's you know. To me, it's kind of like the 0:05:49.160 --> 0:05:51.960 guy that you know the elementary school and you're on 0:05:52.040 --> 0:05:55.040 the playground and two kids are kind of, you know, 0:05:55.160 --> 0:05:57.520 squaring off, and he's the guy that puts the stick 0:05:57.560 --> 0:05:58.880 on one of the shows said I bet you won't 0:05:58.960 --> 0:06:01.280 knock it off. Like he's the guy that's instigating it, 0:06:01.440 --> 0:06:03.040 but it's not going to really be in the fight, 0:06:03.160 --> 0:06:05.480 Like he's not going to really contribute anything to the fight, 0:06:05.839 --> 0:06:08.640 but he's instigating the whole thing. I just don't Aubrey 0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:12.320 Drake Graham said it best bench players talking like starters. 0:06:12.320 --> 0:06:14.360 I hate it. Yeah, there we go. That's a good 0:06:14.360 --> 0:06:16.559 way to put it. And I don't really like but whatever. 0:06:16.640 --> 0:06:19.520 Loved Bryce Butler well, you know, I mean Bryce was cool. 0:06:19.800 --> 0:06:21.880 Bryce did that. Yeah, but I I didn't like it 0:06:21.880 --> 0:06:26.760 when Bryce. I know, I don't like the guy. Did 0:06:26.800 --> 0:06:29.839 you read the quote. I haven't gotten to it. It 0:06:30.000 --> 0:06:33.520 is good. It's a good bet that anybody that's listening 0:06:33.560 --> 0:06:35.960 to this podcast knows exactly what he said, yeah, but 0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:39.200 feel free to like. But for those who haven't heard it, 0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:42.719 he basically said, look at Dallas history, they always choke, 0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:46.719 so we'll go down there and make them choke. Pretty simple. 0:06:47.200 --> 0:06:50.200 But I love the quote. It would sound better coming 0:06:50.240 --> 0:06:52.400 from a good player or a bet Fletcher Cox said 0:06:52.440 --> 0:06:54.480 that I'd be like, all right, let's do it. Gonna 0:06:54.480 --> 0:06:57.320 be fine, let's go, you know, but it was. It 0:06:57.360 --> 0:07:01.160 was still an interesting close. You're here, and I'm sure 0:07:01.240 --> 0:07:03.400 it's gonna be brought back in the locker room and 0:07:04.680 --> 0:07:07.800 blah blah blah. Not according not according to Jason Garrett 0:07:07.920 --> 0:07:09.880 what he said. He said, I don't know what you're 0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:13.000 talking about, and we're focused on Thursday. We don't do that. Yeah, 0:07:13.080 --> 0:07:16.840 Jason may not, but I'm sure the guys being very factious. 0:07:18.360 --> 0:07:20.560 I don't know this, but I would bet ten dollars. 0:07:20.680 --> 0:07:22.800 Jason Garrett plastered the quote up there at the front 0:07:22.840 --> 0:07:24.520 of his team meeting. It won't be the first time 0:07:24.560 --> 0:07:27.640 he ain't gonna tell us that. Yeah, I have a question. Yeah, 0:07:28.080 --> 0:07:31.560 is he wrong? Yes, he's wrong. You don't think he's wrong. 0:07:32.640 --> 0:07:37.280 I mean, here's why Here's why I think he's wrong 0:07:37.720 --> 0:07:39.760 is because if you want to say the history, the 0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:42.680 one thing Cowboys fans actually can put their hat on 0:07:43.000 --> 0:07:44.640 is the history of this team. You want to talk 0:07:44.640 --> 0:07:47.400 about choking, talk about a team that hadn't for how 0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:49.920 many years, hadn't gotten in NFL. Does I know how 0:07:50.040 --> 0:07:53.120 does the guy like he's a young guy that's like 0:07:53.160 --> 0:07:55.720 in there, you know, the history is three years ago, 0:07:55.800 --> 0:07:58.120 four years ago and all that, But which is really 0:07:58.160 --> 0:08:01.640 all that matters because you know, nothing that Ron Jaworski 0:08:01.720 --> 0:08:04.040 did or didn't do or Donovan McNab is gonna affect 0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:06.040 him in this game. Right. So, but I'm just saying, 0:08:06.240 --> 0:08:09.680 is the Cowboys and Eagles, Like I said the other day, 0:08:10.240 --> 0:08:12.960 I've seen this game before. I've seen the Eagles coming 0:08:13.000 --> 0:08:16.400 in as underdogs and they actually you know that they've 0:08:16.440 --> 0:08:18.920 got more to play for, even though it's kind of similar, 0:08:19.240 --> 0:08:21.440 and I still and I've seen the Eagles win this game. 0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:23.480 So that but you've all seen this game. You've also 0:08:23.480 --> 0:08:25.760 seen the opposite. You saw that year when the Cowboys 0:08:25.760 --> 0:08:27.440 had to play them back to back into the season 0:08:27.480 --> 0:08:30.120 and in the playoffs first week of the playoffs and 0:08:30.720 --> 0:08:33.880 destroyed the seeing it right, I know, but I'm saying, like, 0:08:34.240 --> 0:08:36.280 we've seen this one. We've seen this one go back 0:08:36.320 --> 0:08:38.200 and forth. I know, I know, I just think this 0:08:38.240 --> 0:08:41.240 is a dangerous game. Actually, after get the Eagles, forget that. 0:08:41.360 --> 0:08:44.520 I've seen division teams come in here and the Cowboys 0:08:44.559 --> 0:08:46.440 did it. The Cowboys were the underdogs and they won 0:08:46.480 --> 0:08:49.040 four weeks ago, especially after a big win. I mean, 0:08:49.080 --> 0:08:51.160 it all sets up nicely for the Cowboys to have 0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:53.280 a letdown week. You're going to do something that the 0:08:53.320 --> 0:08:56.080 world thought you couldn't do, and then the next week 0:08:56.160 --> 0:08:57.840 you get it handed to you. Like that happens in 0:08:57.840 --> 0:08:59.960 the NFL. We've seen that happen with many teams. Even 0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:02.400 though he's one of our best players on this team 0:09:02.400 --> 0:09:05.679 in this building. But don't you think the Saints fans 0:09:06.120 --> 0:09:10.040 on Saint Talk or whatever, was like, who's de Marcus 0:09:10.080 --> 0:09:14.920 Lawrence again? Well, yeah, yeah, yes, he's actually yes, which 0:09:14.920 --> 0:09:17.120 really well, I saw this play out on heres a 0:09:17.120 --> 0:09:18.959 pro bowler, but that there's a lot of Pro Bowlers 0:09:18.960 --> 0:09:20.719 that you don't really know. I saw this play out 0:09:20.760 --> 0:09:23.600 on Twitter absolutely because Saints. Twitter went wild with that, 0:09:23.640 --> 0:09:26.679 and there were plenty of people saying who and then 0:09:26.720 --> 0:09:29.320 in the comments you're like, uh, this guy was an 0:09:29.320 --> 0:09:30.960 All Pro. If you don't know him, you're not a 0:09:30.960 --> 0:09:34.040 football fan, right, Like, I mean, you know it's happened, 0:09:34.040 --> 0:09:36.560 But I wish I could. I wish I could pull 0:09:36.600 --> 0:09:39.920 myself back, because I really it's surprising how a little 0:09:39.920 --> 0:09:42.880 of a household named de Marcus Lawrence is. I completely 0:09:42.920 --> 0:09:46.600 believe that. Obviously that sounds silly on Cowboys break, But like, 0:09:47.240 --> 0:09:50.000 if I'm really just paying attention to the Saints or 0:09:50.840 --> 0:09:53.840 the if I'm just a diehard Broncos fan, like do 0:09:53.880 --> 0:09:56.199 I one hundred percent? Am? I just? Do I really 0:09:56.440 --> 0:09:58.400 know about de Marcus? I agree with probably not that 0:09:58.720 --> 0:10:01.800 tackle for the tight is that really good? Remember the 0:10:01.840 --> 0:10:05.240 defensive tackle? Oh oh Darrell Casey. Okay, I mean you know, 0:10:05.480 --> 0:10:09.040 but that's also but that's also a case of a 0:10:09.120 --> 0:10:10.960 fan being ignorant and I don't mean it well and 0:10:11.040 --> 0:10:13.120 that dumb. I'm that ignorant as in't just not knowing. 0:10:13.240 --> 0:10:15.520 If you google that's very different than Gruiser Hill. If 0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:17.679 you google DeMarcus and there were you know, people on 0:10:17.720 --> 0:10:20.520 Twitter like google him, do it and see what he's 0:10:20.520 --> 0:10:23.720 done us three years, you'll know. Whereas you google Camu 0:10:23.840 --> 0:10:27.280 Gruiser Hill and you're like, okay, I mean, okay, he 0:10:27.480 --> 0:10:30.080 like he's he's Damian Wilson. Good for him, Like he's 0:10:30.120 --> 0:10:32.320 on an NFL team. That's about it. And I would 0:10:32.360 --> 0:10:34.400 have caught that fast. Did he dropped a pass? He 0:10:35.000 --> 0:10:39.040 His two biggest moments prior to this quote were dropping 0:10:39.240 --> 0:10:41.280 what would have been a pick six from Dak in 0:10:41.320 --> 0:10:44.800 the first game this year and last year when the 0:10:44.800 --> 0:10:46.880 Eagles put it on the Cowboys at AT and T. 0:10:47.720 --> 0:10:50.960 Their kickers suffered a concussion and he was their emergency guy. 0:10:51.000 --> 0:10:54.960 If you remember, it went viral. He missed the net practicing, 0:10:55.600 --> 0:10:59.520 remember he and that was his other claim to fame 0:11:00.200 --> 0:11:03.160 he did have. He did successfully kick off four times 0:11:03.160 --> 0:11:04.600 in that game. Now, yeah, I thought he was pretty 0:11:04.600 --> 0:11:06.240 good as a kickoff. They well, they didn't ask him 0:11:06.240 --> 0:11:08.920 to kick any field goals, but he was pretty good 0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:12.080 as yeah. Yeah, yeah, So, I mean, man, the first 0:11:12.080 --> 0:11:13.400 thing I did when I saw the quote was I 0:11:13.400 --> 0:11:15.440 went to look up who he was, and then it 0:11:15.520 --> 0:11:18.280 confirmed to me he's a guy that probably shouldn't be 0:11:18.320 --> 0:11:20.480 making that comment in my opinion. Now, again, you have 0:11:20.480 --> 0:11:21.840 the right to say whatever you want to say. I 0:11:21.920 --> 0:11:23.800 just I think if you're not one of the guys 0:11:23.880 --> 0:11:27.199 that's actually going to make it happen. You probably shouldn't 0:11:27.240 --> 0:11:29.240 be talking about other people making it happen. Fans made 0:11:29.240 --> 0:11:31.760 comments all the time. It's just like the difference here 0:11:31.880 --> 0:11:34.840 that he's actually on the team necessarily helping on the field. 0:11:34.880 --> 0:11:38.000 So it's just like a fan guy who's also happens 0:11:38.040 --> 0:11:40.160 to be a player, kind of talking. But nobody takes 0:11:40.160 --> 0:11:42.480 a fan like the fan that says that nobody's gonna 0:11:42.480 --> 0:11:44.160 blow it up and it's gonna be on Sports Center 0:11:44.240 --> 0:11:46.800 right when a player says it. Well, the difference, Yeah, 0:11:46.840 --> 0:11:49.679 that's the difference. So I mean, I just kind of 0:11:49.679 --> 0:11:52.320 like dismiss it, like it doesn't really matter because I 0:11:52.360 --> 0:11:54.439 go back to what DeMarcus Lauren said. He said we're 0:11:54.440 --> 0:11:57.000 gonna choke him out too, I mean, and or he 0:11:57.000 --> 0:11:58.600 didn't say we're gonna choke him out. He said this 0:11:58.640 --> 0:12:01.160 is how you win. His was as strong as this 0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:02.880 other guy. But at the end of the day, that 0:12:02.960 --> 0:12:06.120 didn't help the Saints. It didn't help them win the game. 0:12:06.200 --> 0:12:08.240 Their offense played the worst game that they have so 0:12:08.400 --> 0:12:11.120 that doesn't help either way. It just kind of makes 0:12:11.160 --> 0:12:13.160 this if it puts a little extra pep in your 0:12:13.200 --> 0:12:16.520 step fine, that's not gonna mean I will. I mean, 0:12:17.000 --> 0:12:19.079 when I first heard it, I was like, I'm exactly 0:12:19.080 --> 0:12:21.760 with you. I'm like, well, if Tank says this, maybe 0:12:21.800 --> 0:12:24.640 you'd prefer he didn't. But he's your best player, Like, 0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:27.480 you're gonna ride with him. You're not gonna tell him. 0:12:27.520 --> 0:12:32.079 What's what this guy? You think? Maybe Fletcher Cox had 0:12:32.120 --> 0:12:34.679 some words for him, like what on earth are you doing? 0:12:35.200 --> 0:12:37.600 Although I'm supposed to say that if anybody's number one, 0:12:37.600 --> 0:12:39.880 I was gonna say a name an Eagles player and 0:12:39.960 --> 0:12:42.520 I'll find something in Cindy or they said about the Cowboys, 0:12:42.559 --> 0:12:45.559 they Kelsey said something before the first Kelsey fletch. I 0:12:46.080 --> 0:12:49.559 literally um in twenty fourteen. This happened in twenty fourteen. 0:12:49.840 --> 0:12:52.280 Fletcher Cox and Benny Logan were like, we're tired of 0:12:52.320 --> 0:12:54.760 hearing about this offense. They're not that good, and they 0:12:54.800 --> 0:12:57.360 came in here and smashed them. Yeah, they do it 0:12:57.400 --> 0:13:00.400 all the time. They don't. Eagles do not have that 0:13:00.480 --> 0:13:04.760 attention to boringness that Jason Garrett does. Yeah, although I'm 0:13:04.800 --> 0:13:07.400 looking at it, he's he is a captain, he's a 0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:10.120 special team's captain. But maybe he has some cloud in 0:13:10.120 --> 0:13:12.040 the locker room. I mean, I don't follow that team 0:13:12.679 --> 0:13:15.640 the way that Eagles break does, so maybe he does 0:13:15.720 --> 0:13:17.800 have the cloud to say that, but either way, it's 0:13:17.800 --> 0:13:19.760 a talking point. I thought it was really funny. Doug 0:13:19.760 --> 0:13:23.880 Peterson today he called it an unfortunate comment, and somebody 0:13:23.920 --> 0:13:25.600 asked him. He's like, well, are you worried about being 0:13:25.640 --> 0:13:28.360 bulletin board material? And he's like, it already is like 0:13:28.400 --> 0:13:30.319 what he might worried about it, he ain't gonna do 0:13:30.360 --> 0:13:31.840 anything about it at this past, so you might as 0:13:31.880 --> 0:13:33.760 well keep going. And it does. It doesn't really matter 0:13:33.800 --> 0:13:35.560 at the end of the day. It's fun for fans, 0:13:35.559 --> 0:13:37.320 and fans get into it and it gives them something 0:13:37.320 --> 0:13:39.040 to talk about, but at the end of the day, 0:13:39.040 --> 0:13:40.880 it's not going to change the outcome on the field. Yeah, 0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:43.000 we really won't. The fact that the Cowboys are at 0:13:43.080 --> 0:13:46.840 the situation where now they can choke, you know, because 0:13:47.280 --> 0:13:49.480 they haven't been in that situation. And and and I 0:13:49.520 --> 0:13:52.440 don't think that they feel that way because I know 0:13:52.480 --> 0:13:54.640 they're saying backs against the wall, let's see if they 0:13:54.640 --> 0:13:56.760 play like it, but they are saying that at least 0:13:57.360 --> 0:13:59.720 you can't you can't underest him. I mean, we've already 0:13:59.720 --> 0:14:02.000 said it. But I saw a graphic on Twitter this morning, 0:14:02.040 --> 0:14:05.400 like the difference between if you win and lose this 0:14:05.440 --> 0:14:07.840 game is it's insane any and for the Eagles too, 0:14:07.880 --> 0:14:10.440 like if they lose this game they have a seventeen 0:14:10.480 --> 0:14:12.520 percent chance of making the playoffs, and if they win, 0:14:12.559 --> 0:14:15.560 it's up to like fifty. Like, I mean, this is 0:14:16.440 --> 0:14:19.160 They're all important, Amber, I know, I know, but this 0:14:19.840 --> 0:14:22.760 is a really important game. This is really really important. 0:14:22.840 --> 0:14:26.040 Don't say this to Brian if this game is more 0:14:26.080 --> 0:14:28.840 important than some other games, I'm sorry it is. That's 0:14:28.880 --> 0:14:31.320 the way this works. This is like in a basketball 0:14:31.360 --> 0:14:33.600 game five, you know, with five seconds to go and 0:14:33.640 --> 0:14:35.520 you're down one. I mean, this is this is what 0:14:35.560 --> 0:14:37.640 it is. You make the shot and you win. If 0:14:37.680 --> 0:14:40.960 you miss, you lose. I mean it's not like it's tied. 0:14:41.000 --> 0:14:42.640 We're going to overtime and all that. This is pretty 0:14:42.720 --> 0:14:44.840 much what it comes down to. Now. Can you figure 0:14:44.840 --> 0:14:48.080 out other ways From the Cowboys standpoint, yeah, maybe, but 0:14:48.920 --> 0:14:51.520 they don't have the tiebreakers. If they lose, they are 0:14:51.560 --> 0:14:53.520 not in first place anymore. If they lose the I 0:14:53.520 --> 0:14:57.400 actually think though that the Cowboys Cowboys losing is less 0:14:58.360 --> 0:15:01.440 um less of a death nail than the Eagles losing. 0:15:01.680 --> 0:15:04.040 I think the Eagles lose, it becomes a lot harder 0:15:04.040 --> 0:15:06.280 because now they're at six and seven. Cowboys would be 0:15:06.280 --> 0:15:08.120 at seven and six. And to be honest with you, 0:15:08.360 --> 0:15:09.960 if you look at the way things will fall out 0:15:09.960 --> 0:15:12.400 this weekend, there's a good chance even if the Cowboys lose, 0:15:12.440 --> 0:15:14.520 they're still in that wildcard spot. I kind of I'm 0:15:14.520 --> 0:15:16.160 so everything's still in front of it. That's why I 0:15:16.160 --> 0:15:18.880 really like that analogy though, that Nick just made, because 0:15:18.920 --> 0:15:21.560 if you make this shot, you win, and if I lose, 0:15:22.320 --> 0:15:26.760 maybe you can foul people and you work your way back. Yeah, 0:15:26.800 --> 0:15:29.560 but it is a great analogy. Just make the shot 0:15:29.600 --> 0:15:31.800 and you'll win, way easier than having to do all 0:15:31.840 --> 0:15:33.640 that crap though, which I love. That's how you put 0:15:33.640 --> 0:15:36.040 it earlier in the week of if you're good, go 0:15:36.120 --> 0:15:37.760 win the game, Like that's the point. You got the 0:15:37.760 --> 0:15:40.720 opportunity to put them away and to cement yourself. Go 0:15:40.840 --> 0:15:43.120 win the game, you know, make the playoffs without winning. 0:15:43.120 --> 0:15:49.120 You've seen hoosiers, right, No, what I haven't either. Wh 0:15:50.720 --> 0:15:54.800 who's the odd ball here? How many ye America? How 0:15:54.880 --> 0:15:58.720 many in America? Jimmy, I think we're really angry with 0:15:58.840 --> 0:16:01.880 Jimmy chit would do you want to make your point 0:16:01.880 --> 0:16:06.200 before we go into breakers? Understand play? Yeah, just thousand 0:16:06.240 --> 0:16:09.160 and they'll get this. Yeah, because they had a player. 0:16:09.240 --> 0:16:11.440 Now you go, are you gonna mess it up for us? No? No, 0:16:11.640 --> 0:16:13.760 because if you haven't seen it after the twenty fifth 0:16:13.800 --> 0:16:16.200 anniversary came out, and if you haven't seen it, you're 0:16:16.200 --> 0:16:19.040 not gonna see it. Jimmy Chitwood the best player they've 0:16:19.040 --> 0:16:22.320 seen around these parts in fifty years. Whatever couldn't miss. 0:16:22.480 --> 0:16:24.720 He was the best player. Took this little team all 0:16:24.760 --> 0:16:26.480 the way to the title. They get down to the 0:16:26.560 --> 0:16:28.160 very end, this is gonna make it a lot more 0:16:28.160 --> 0:16:32.080 sense than you think. And there their coach. They're witty, strong, 0:16:32.280 --> 0:16:35.120 tough coach, Norman Dale. At the very end, last play, 0:16:35.160 --> 0:16:37.640 they're down one. I believe down one, have a chance 0:16:37.640 --> 0:16:39.640 to win it in nine seconds to go, and he says, 0:16:40.320 --> 0:16:42.600 they think you're gonna get the ball, Jimmy, we're gonna 0:16:42.680 --> 0:16:44.640 use you as a decoy and he's gonna shoot it. 0:16:44.640 --> 0:16:47.440 And everybody was like, oh god, really, he's like they 0:16:47.480 --> 0:16:49.320 outthinking themselves, you know, kind of when you get down 0:16:49.320 --> 0:16:51.200 to the four yard line and you don't run, so 0:16:51.320 --> 0:16:53.320 basically what they did was is then all of a sudden, 0:16:53.320 --> 0:16:55.200 they're sitting there, what's wrong with you guys? And he says, 0:16:55.960 --> 0:16:57.920 I'll make it. That's all he said. That's like his 0:16:58.000 --> 0:17:00.760 whole line for the whole show was a random dude 0:17:00.800 --> 0:17:04.200 on the bench. No, no, no, no, Jimmie Chip said 0:17:04.440 --> 0:17:06.680 I'll make it. I don't remember, and I like talk 0:17:06.800 --> 0:17:09.520 because he's just he's a weirdo. Yeah, sort, he's just quiet, 0:17:09.560 --> 0:17:12.000 and all of a sudden, it's okay, let's change it up. 0:17:12.000 --> 0:17:13.639 You get the ball, you drive, and you shoot and 0:17:13.640 --> 0:17:16.520 you win, and you, you know, have the greatest movie 0:17:16.520 --> 0:17:18.280 of all time that most people haven't seen. I guess 0:17:18.280 --> 0:17:20.840 in this room. But my point is, don't I don't 0:17:20.840 --> 0:17:24.280 think yourselves, coach, and also go with the best player 0:17:24.320 --> 0:17:26.639 who's brought you here. Let him shooting at the end, 0:17:26.720 --> 0:17:29.800 and go see hoosiers. All right, great point, Nick, Thank 0:17:29.800 --> 0:17:32.960 you for sharing that. We're going around.
