It's Thursday, October twenty sixth 8 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:30,160 Speaker 5: I'm Nick Eatman here and we're gonna talk Cowboys and Rams. 9 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:33,519 Speaker 5: Cowboys are finally getting back from this bye week. You know, 10 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:37,000 Speaker 5: I was just talking with Isaiah standback just now on 11 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:41,080 Speaker 5: talking Cowboys and how this is such a it's such 12 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 5: a long two weeks when you're coming off the by 13 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,839 Speaker 5: when you get to this point here and what are 14 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 5: you talking about? You can try to talk about the Rams, 15 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:51,840 Speaker 5: but it's not an opponent that you know, has got 16 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 5: a whole lot of intrigue. 17 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: They got some good players. I'm not saying that. 18 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 5: I'm not saying it won't be a tough game, but 19 00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 5: you know, the matchups not not like it, you know, 20 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,640 Speaker 5: like it would just sell on it on itself, you know. 21 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 1: And so when you when your. 22 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 5: Two games, two weeks removed from a game, you know, 23 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 5: it takes a long time. That's why it's so important 24 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 5: to win that game heading into the buy, because if 25 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 5: you don't it seems to linger even more so. At 26 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,680 Speaker 5: least the Cowboys got that win. They're sitting at four 27 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 5: in too. Since that game, there's been a lot of 28 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,039 Speaker 5: things that kind of happened that I think sort of 29 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 5: favor of the Cowboys. It just shows that that, you know, 30 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 5: there's there's a lot of you know, there's a lot 31 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 5: of parody teams that we thought were really good. Maybe 32 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,680 Speaker 5: it may not be as great. I know the Eagles 33 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 5: are good. Michael Parsons thinks the Eagles are good. We've 34 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 5: talked about that. But no, they are good. I mean, 35 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 5: the record says that they are. But guess what. The 36 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 5: Cowboys get to face them in a couple of weeks. 37 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 5: But we're not jumping ahead of the Rams. Just know 38 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 5: that where they stand right now, that will be a 39 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 5: huge game. If the Cowboys can take care of business 40 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 5: there and beat It's gonna be a big game anyways, 41 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 5: but it'll if the Cowboys can can get to five 42 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 5: and two this week and beat the Rams and extend 43 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 5: this winning streak at home, that's I believe at ten 44 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 5: games right now, could be eleven. And let me say this, 45 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 5: credit to the fans. Credit to the fans for for 46 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 5: making it a place where it's tough to play, because 47 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 5: let's be honest, it wasn't always that way. It's not 48 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 5: an easy place to have a dominant home crowd. Uh 49 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,360 Speaker 5: you know, we've talked about this before.

That is the phone number. 67 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 5: And we got a couple of callers already on the line, 68 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,639 Speaker 5: so let's get started. We got Michael and Bowling Green, Kentucky. 69 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: Michael, what's up all right? 70 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 6: So trade deadlines coming up? 71 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 7: M h. 72 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 6: I saw an article on USA Today's Sports last night, 73 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 6: and uh, I want to get your take on it. 74 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 6: If it's possible, I think it's doable. I think if 75 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 6: it happens the Cowboys, I think you'll get pantsy Eagles. 76 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 6: I think it's a big, big deal if they could 77 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 6: do it. The two options that they addressed in the article, 78 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 6: where you send the number one draft pick next year 79 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 6: to the Tennessee Titans for Derick Henry and you're done. 80 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 6: Or you send the number five of draft pick and 81 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 6: Tony Pollard to the Titans for Derrick Henry and you know, 82 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 6: I guess you have Frico as your is your one 83 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 6: two punch instead of Pollard and Henry. Do you think 84 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 6: either of those as possible? Do you think either it 85 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 6: could be likely? I think it would make it. The 86 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 6: way the Cowboys are wanting to run so much. I 87 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 6: mean Derrick Henry, I mean he's like uh, he's like 88 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:32,719 Speaker 6: Z plus. 89 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, all right here, I appreciate the call. 90 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: Michael. 91 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 5: Here, here's the problem that we have. I can sit 92 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,040 Speaker 5: here and say, hey, guys, it's your show, and it 93 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 5: is the problem is is that it's not This isn't 94 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 5: a topic that I can really address that much. Dallas 95 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 5: Cowboys Radio, Dallas Cowboys websites are properties. We're not gonna 96 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,919 Speaker 5: sit here and talk about players on other teams. I 97 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 5: know it's not as fun for you. You guys, I 98 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 5: get it, because this is the time where where you 99 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 5: want to have all these scenarios. And USA today can 100 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 5: do that kind of stuff, and the radio stations can 101 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 5: do that, and we have people that work on these 102 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 5: on these shows, in these podcasts, that have other affiliates 103 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 5: that they can do that. It's harder for us to 104 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 5: do that because what happens is, here's why is that 105 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 5: any player that you just mentioned. If we sat here 106 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,359 Speaker 5: and talked about it and talked about it for a 107 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,599 Speaker 5: while and then it happened, then other teams are looking 108 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 5: around and going, well, this was in the works for 109 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 5: a long time. The Cowboys were tampering. They were already 110 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,480 Speaker 5: talking about it because on their radio shows, on their 111 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 5: own website, they were talking about it, and so this 112 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,239 Speaker 5: was this was a done deal way before it happened. 113 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 5: So that's why that's why it's just hard for us 114 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 5: to go down that road with specific players. Okay, so 115 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 5: specific players, I'm not going to go there with you. 116 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,480 Speaker 5: But if you want to talk about big, strong, experienced 117 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 5: running backs in the league, if there was a guy 118 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:59,480 Speaker 5: out there that's done some things, I think that could 119 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 5: help the Boys. I think they could use a running 120 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 5: back like that. I'm not looking to trade Tony Pollard 121 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 5: for it though. I'm not looking to trade Pollard for 122 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 5: a guy. And not that's not what I'm trying. That's 123 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 5: not going all in to me that. That's just saying, 124 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,599 Speaker 5: all right, that's a that's addressing one problem. Now I 125 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 5: got another problem. I mean, you need playmakers. So I 126 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 5: think if you're going to add a running back, I 127 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 5: think you got to add him to the list with 128 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 5: Tony Pollard and whatever that takes. I don't think the 129 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 5: Cowboys would part ways with a I don't think the 130 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 5: think about this. You're not going to trade a first 131 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 5: round pick for a running back when you're don't even 132 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 5: want to draft one in the first round. I mean, 133 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 5: like like teams don't like to draft running backs in 134 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 5: the first round unless they're really really special, And so 135 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 5: I don't think you're going to you know, you're you're 136 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,480 Speaker 5: not going to trade for one who's been in the 137 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 5: league and he's on the down side of his career, 138 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 5: I would think as a running back. So that's why, 139 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 5: that's that's why it's gonna be have to trade for 140 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 5: any running back. Teams are gonna want value for their 141 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 5: for their player. But at the same time, you know 142 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 5: it's this is not a herschel Walker situation, that those 143 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 5: days are gone. That's not gonna happen, all right. Next 144 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 5: caller Travis in San Antonio. Travis, what's up? 145 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 8: And Nick, how's it going? 146 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 1: I'm good? 147 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 8: How are you good?

It happened ron 171 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 8: Rivera a couple of weeks ago where he was like, 172 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 8: they could have gone for two to beat the Eagles 173 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 8: and he didn't, and they were re asked for the game. 174 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 8: He was asked, why didn't you go for two? Or 175 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 8: I think it was the Giants, and he said, well, 176 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 8: you know, my team was exhausted, and they were like, well, yeah, 177 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 8: that's so go for two, go for the win. Like 178 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 8: if you know your team is exhausted, why would you 179 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 8: want to go to overtime. So it's just kind of 180 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 8: the same thing. It's like, understand and I'm not saying 181 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 8: you can do it every year, because not every year 182 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 8: you have an amazing team, but you have to have 183 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:50,199 Speaker 8: I think you have to have a little bit of 184 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 8: a pulse of a team to know like, this may 185 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 8: be our best chance even looking forward to do it now, 186 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,959 Speaker 8: So let's be aggressive, let's go. And I guess, you know, 187 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 8: he used to be that way. And I think somewhat 188 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 8: because I heard drops called yesterday, I think somewhat what's 189 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,079 Speaker 8: happened is like he used to be that way. He 190 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 8: got burned on the Gallowaich or he got burned on 191 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 8: the lower looms straight. And then I think Steven's come 192 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 8: in and he's kind of been the ying to Jerry's 193 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,560 Speaker 8: gang where he's kind of like, you know, Jerry still 194 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 8: wants to do it, but he's like, hey, you know, 195 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 8: maybe we should We got to think about X, Y 196 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 8: and Z. So he's kind of scaled back a little bit. Yeah, 197 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 8: And I do think just being competitive, although it's great, 198 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 8: it is good for business. 199 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:34,319 Speaker 5: All right, all right, Michael Hold on Travis. Sorry, sorry, Travis, Travis. 200 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:35,959 Speaker 5: Let me ask you this. I'm gonna I'm gonna throw 201 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 5: it back at you. Yep, what are the three name 202 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 5: the three times where you think Jerry has kind of 203 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,719 Speaker 5: gone all in and made moves like that? 204 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:46,479 Speaker 1: Can you give me three examples? 205 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 8: I don't think I know you. I know you said 206 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 8: that the Maari Cooper thing was that. I don't think 207 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 8: that was it because and I'll tell you why, Because 208 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 8: although the Amari Cooper thing was like, yeah, we give 209 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 8: the first round pick, what was the reason we had 210 00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 8: to do that. We went into the season going we 211 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 8: got we got enough, what we like our receivers, that 212 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 8: was the reason. 213 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 5: Okay, but give me, give me some examples of these 214 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 5: moves that are like big moves. And you wouldn't call 215 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 5: that a big move trading the first. 216 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 8: Round pick, No, because you do that a desperation. 217 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 1: Okay, So when has that happened? When? When when has 218 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: Jerry done this? Then? What is the old Jerry doing? 219 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 9: What? 220 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 8: Joey Galloway, Yeah, I mean I guess it's it's more 221 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 8: so and I'm not saying that was right back then 222 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 8: to do it. Then I'm saying it's you want to be. 223 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 8: I guess it's marrying the two together, like those weren't 224 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 8: necessarily the great moves. That was probably overpaying and not 225 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:39,959 Speaker 8: the right time to do it. That's what I'm saying 226 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 8: about the whole coach like understand like if this is 227 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,840 Speaker 8: the right time, be willing to do it, and the 228 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 8: two things like like right now, someone called yesterday and said, 229 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 8: you know, we're we're okay at corner. We're okay at corner, 230 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 8: but if we have if Gilmore Bland goes down, we're 231 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,200 Speaker 8: going to be just like we were last year where 232 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 8: we have guys coming off the street. Yeah, so add 233 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 8: one to it, like Jalen Johnson from the Bears. I'd 234 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,319 Speaker 8: give up a second round pick. And the other thing 235 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 8: that I would do is, I know it's a popular one, 236 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 8: but Derek Henry, I don't think. I know, you mentioned 237 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 8: yesterday that the conversation might be crazy, but I don't 238 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 8: think it's going to because he's a thirty, he's almost thirty, 239 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 8: he's a running back and maybe next year is four 240 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 8: and a you know, pick a defensive lineman. I'm not 241 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 8: saying just pick one like whatever, but Jordan Simonstrong or 242 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 8: something like that, because the offensive line, to your point, 243 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 8: is not necessarily the like they're not blocking well right now. 244 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 8: I think they will figure it out. But they didn't 245 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 8: block always well for Zeke last year. But what we 246 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 8: always say, he would turn one and get three two 247 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 8: or the four. So I think that would really help. 248 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 8: And those are the two moves, the two moves that 249 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 8: I would make. 250 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 5: All right, I appreciate that. Thanks, thanks for the college, Travison. 251 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 5: And you know, I think I think the Cowboy I 252 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 5: know a lot of you speak for a lot of 253 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 5: Cowboy fans that kind of want to do something, want 254 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 5: them to kind of, you know, fix some needs here. 255 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 5: I think the Cowboys would like to fix some needs now. 256 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 5: That could also help down the road. Cornerback makes sense 257 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 5: there because you know Diggs will be back, but then 258 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 5: also and Bland is here, but then you know how 259 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 5: much more does Gilmour have and and if you could 260 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 5: have another cornerback in that group that you could have 261 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 5: and re sign, that makes sense. Running back, you know, 262 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 5: running back is tricky, and it's a tricky position, and 263 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 5: so if you get if you get an older running back, 264 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 5: it's still probably not going to be your answer for 265 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 5: the future. 266 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 1: And who's to say that you have to do that? 267 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 5: Maybe you you draft one and and you know, in 268 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 5: the first, second, third round and next year and move on. 269 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,600 Speaker 5: So yeah, there's a lot of options the Cowboys could go. 270 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 5: Let me say this though, I do put the Mary 271 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 5: Cooper in one of those moves. I kind of say 272 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 5: three three times that Jerry has done. I mean, let's 273 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:54,959 Speaker 5: just call what it is, trade in the first round pick. 274 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 5: When you trade a first round pick, and it happened 275 00:12:57,920 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 5: in two thousand with Joey Galloway, it happened in two 276 00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:04,440 Speaker 5: thousand and eight with Roy Williams, and then it happened 277 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 5: in two thousand and eighteen with Amari Cooper. They made 278 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:13,200 Speaker 5: the playoffs in two thousand and nine right after Roy Williams, 279 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 5: and they made it that year with Amari Cooper. But 280 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 5: go back and look and of course Joey Galloway that 281 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 5: he got hurt after they made that deal with Joey Galloway, 282 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:25,959 Speaker 5: they didn't make the playoffs for four seasons after the 283 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 5: trade with Roy Williams. They made it the next year, 284 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 5: but then they didn't make it four out of the 285 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 5: five years, and then with Amari Cooper they made it 286 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 5: that year. 287 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 1: And then didn't make it for two straight years. 288 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 5: So I mean, you can just make the argument either 289 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 5: way to have these moves helped, right then, yes and no. 290 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:47,960 Speaker 1: Have they helped long term? Maybe not? 291 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 5: So a lot of things to kind of factor in 292 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 5: and when you're giving up and I don't think the 293 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 5: Cobain is going to give up a first round pick 294 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,120 Speaker 5: for anybody. I just don't think that that's going to 295 00:13:56,240 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 5: happen this year, all right, Steven Newport, Washington, Steve, what's up, man? 296 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 11: I got a question? I got uh. I was really 297 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 11: impressed in the preseason with Hunter Lipke, okay, and I 298 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 11: think they utilized him a little bit the first game, 299 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 11: but I haven't seen him since. I think he's good 300 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 11: catching the ball out of the backfield. He was seemed 301 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 11: to be a good blocker, and they were going to 302 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 11: use him as a full back. They kept him on 303 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 11: the roster. Seemed to be for some reason. Any idea 304 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 11: why they haven't utilized. 305 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: Well, Steve, Steve, I don't. I don't agree with you. 306 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 5: I mean, honestly, I think Hunter Lipkey has actually added 307 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 5: every single game. It seems like his workload has been 308 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 5: more and more each game. I'm not sure I'm seeing 309 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:49,800 Speaker 5: seeing it the way you're seeing it because I feel like, uh, 310 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 5: they do add a little bit more to his plate 311 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 5: every single game. 312 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 1: I saw it. 313 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 5: In this last game with the Chargers. I saw him 314 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 5: lineup basically as a tied end. I've seen him at fullback. 315 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 5: I've seen him with the running the ball and getting 316 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 5: into the end zone. We've seen him as the lead blocker. 317 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 5: We've seen him catch out of the backfield. We've seen 318 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 5: him on special teams. I think he's actually the trajectory 319 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 5: of Hunter Lipkey is way faster than I thought it 320 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 5: was going to be. So I disagree with you there. 321 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 5: I think they really like him, and I think they're 322 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 5: continuing to add stuff to his plate. He's not the 323 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 5: lead running back, maybe he could be, you know, I mean, 324 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 5: not not as the starter, but maybe he had could 325 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 5: have that role a little bit more. So I'm not 326 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 5: going with you on that one. I think the Cowboys 327 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 5: are very excited about Hunter Lipkey, and I think that 328 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 5: they're giving him opportunities to grow right right before our eyes. 329 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 11: Right the people were talking about bringing in other running 330 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 11: backs and other other things that I'm talking about. 331 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 1: You want to you want to go to lipkey for 332 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 1: what we have. 333 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 5: All right, well, I mean and that's that's definitely an 334 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 5: option there. So Steve, you have any other question or 335 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 5: is that. 336 00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 11: It was all right? 337 00:15:58,160 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 1: Well? 338 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 5: Thanks, I appreciate the call. And and you know, and 339 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 5: that's that's that's another thing. I mean, that's what the 340 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 5: Cowboys are trying to figure out here. I mean, you know, 341 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 5: what do you do? 342 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 1: Do you do? 343 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 5: You go on the outside and bring someone in and 344 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 5: you know that there's that term progress stopper, which I 345 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 5: don't think the fans really care about that right now. 346 00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 5: I think they want to go win win games and 347 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 5: try to win Super Bowl, and I get it, but 348 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 5: you know, you are trying to develop your own players, 349 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 5: and so it's just got to make sense. It's the 350 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 5: moves have to make sense, and there's more factors than 351 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 5: just saying you know, and I keep going back to Madden, 352 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 5: but I think people think like that, like I've gotten 353 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,280 Speaker 5: seventy seven overall player, I need to get an eighty five. 354 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 5: It just doesn't work that way because there's way more 355 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 5: to it involved there. And so I do think the 356 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 5: Cowboys are thinking about stuff, and I think they're I 357 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 5: think they're on the phone. I think they're they're they're looking. 358 00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 5: I don't necessarily buy that part about Jerry say it's 359 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 5: got to come to me. 360 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't. 361 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 5: That's not why you have twenty scouts and all the 362 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 5: coaches and the executives like that. I mean, look, they 363 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 5: know what's out there, they know what other teams are 364 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:05,919 Speaker 5: possibly trying to do and move players. They know the 365 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 5: contract situations of other guys, and so you know, it 366 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,200 Speaker 5: wouldn't surprise me at off the Cowboys initiate a move 367 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:17,879 Speaker 5: and make one. All right, Sebastian and Savannah Georgia, Sebastian, 368 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 5: what's up. 369 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:21,440 Speaker 10: Good morning, Good morning, and shout out to Mike and Savannah. 370 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 10: I heard them call the other day. We had almost 371 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:24,640 Speaker 10: the same callin Yeah, yeah. 372 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,160 Speaker 1: What was going on? I mean, Savannah is just dominating there. 373 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 10: Look, keeping an eye on the team. What I wanted 374 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:34,120 Speaker 10: to say is like I disagree with something because it's 375 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 10: been happening since like the Jason Garrett administration. I feel 376 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 10: like this front office has a lot of things that 377 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 10: they put into the first back on this team, and 378 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 10: I feel like we have, we might already have on 379 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:45,719 Speaker 10: the team the type of backs that we need as 380 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,159 Speaker 10: far as we Goodatto Goes and Hunt and Lifckey, so 381 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 10: before the death of trade deadline and like going out 382 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 10: and getting a big name or something like that, I 383 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 10: would be putting these acts of their paces in these 384 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:55,919 Speaker 10: next couple of games to see if they can do 385 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 10: it or not. You know, I mean, darn Blanta showed 386 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 10: you these rookies can play from a very young age. 387 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 10: As far as what we need, I tweeted this morning, 388 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 10: I don't know if. 389 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 1: You saw it. 390 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 10: I would love to find like a linebacker like ROLANDA. McLean. 391 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 10: I don't know if that's gonna be Rishad Evans, but 392 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,439 Speaker 10: I think we need another linebacker for Death. But the 393 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:15,640 Speaker 10: move that I really want is if we go out 394 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 10: there and I'm willing to go as high as in the 395 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 10: second round because a lot of our second rounders don't 396 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,360 Speaker 10: pan out our first or grades, and our second rounder 397 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:25,199 Speaker 10: is gonna always pan out a defensive tackle. That's really 398 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,680 Speaker 10: what we wanted Moderie Smith to be already, because I 399 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:30,360 Speaker 10: feel like Migu Smith is going to take more time 400 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 10: to develop. And I'll hang of a. 401 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 1: Listener, all right, great death, all right? 402 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 5: You know what I like where you're thinking, I mean, 403 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:37,920 Speaker 5: like where you're thinking about second rounders, because you're right, 404 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,639 Speaker 5: it's been a position. I mean, it's been a spot 405 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 5: in the in the draft where the Cowboys get you know, 406 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 5: kind of they get risky, and that's that's where I 407 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,520 Speaker 5: think Jerry has has uh that's where his hands are 408 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 5: kind of have been his fingerprints on the draft. A 409 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:58,159 Speaker 5: lot is that second round. Go back, you could go 410 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:03,159 Speaker 5: back a decade. There's there's several players they've drafted of saying, 411 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 5: you know what, we have a first round grade on him, 412 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 5: but injury wise he's in the second round, or off 413 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,199 Speaker 5: the field issues or whatever it is, we feel like 414 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 5: we can steal some value by getting him in the 415 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 5: second round. 416 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 1: Go all the. 417 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:22,120 Speaker 5: Way back to Bruce Carter in twenty eleven, broke his leg. 418 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:25,680 Speaker 5: I believe in his senior year, they drafted him in 419 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 5: the second round. I mean it goes on and on. 420 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 5: I mean, obviously you know Randy Gregory, Sean Lee, I 421 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,159 Speaker 5: mean Sewan Lee actually was before Bruce Carter. That was 422 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:38,160 Speaker 5: another example that worked, that worked. That might have been 423 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,119 Speaker 5: one of the reasons why they continued to do it 424 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 5: because the Shawn Lee, well, let's say it worked. 425 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:45,399 Speaker 1: He was a great player. 426 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 5: But he was there in the second round because of injuries, 427 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 5: and injuries is the reason why he's probably not. It 428 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 5: wasn't a you know, perennial pro bowler. I think he 429 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 5: made it twice, but he could have been so great. 430 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 5: And that's the thing they cobways saw that in college. 431 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 5: They just had to weigh weigh. So second round, you know, 432 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 5: they got Trayvon Diggs, that Kellvin Joseph, Sam Williams. I mean, 433 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 5: they they're they're going for players with you know, a 434 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:12,880 Speaker 5: little bit of baggage, baby, but also trying to get 435 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 5: some value. So why not jump jump the whole year 436 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 5: and and trade a second round pick for a really 437 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 5: really talented play. You can get a lot of value 438 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 5: for a second round pick at this part point in 439 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 5: the season. So I mean, I wouldn't hate it. I 440 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,399 Speaker 5: wouldn't hate that that move if that have especially if 441 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:31,960 Speaker 5: the Cowboys are going to keep drafting the way they 442 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 5: are with that kind of strategy in the second round, 443 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 5: that I'm fine going ahead and risking it on a 444 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 5: on a veteran player that's been proven, uh and doing 445 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:42,640 Speaker 5: it that way. So I like that. I like that move. 446 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,400 Speaker 5: Now you said give the running backs a couple of games. 447 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 5: I think they don't have one. I mean, they have 448 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 5: one more game to do this. I think the deadline 449 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,640 Speaker 5: is the thirty first next Tuesday. So all right, let's 450 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:54,880 Speaker 5: go to Marco in Vancouver, Washington. 451 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 1: Marco, Yeah, how you doing good? 452 00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,160 Speaker 7: How are you not too bad? 453 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 12: Hey? 454 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:07,600 Speaker 7: Yesterday a caller asked the question about which player would 455 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 7: you bring back? And you kind of spun it around 456 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 7: on him. Yeah, because it's easy to pick Hall of famers. 457 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 7: And as soon as you said, like, not a Hall 458 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 7: of Famer, the first guy that popped in my head 459 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 7: was Travis Frederick And really I thought about it bore 460 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 7: and since he left with his illness, because his arrival 461 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:35,400 Speaker 7: was really kind of the arrival of the Cowboys offensive line. 462 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 7: I mean, that's what got DeMarco Murray paid. You know, 463 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 7: people talk about wanting rookie Dak and in Zeke's rookie year. 464 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:44,480 Speaker 11: Well he was. 465 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 7: He was the one that kind of kept that line 466 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 7: going and everything. Really since he since he left, that's 467 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,640 Speaker 7: when the questions I feel started about Dak and even 468 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 7: Zeke when he was here the running game, they all 469 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 7: kind of kind of went down. So, yeah, if I 470 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 7: could bring back one guy, it'd be Travis Frederick. I 471 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 7: mean I kind of was hopeful with Tyler bey Otis 472 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 7: because you know, they kind of had similar credentials coming 473 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:14,119 Speaker 7: out of college. But Travis, I think was just a 474 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 7: little bit bigger. You know, there's a finesse that's involved 475 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:20,679 Speaker 7: with with that position too, and but you need that 476 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,679 Speaker 7: size and I think that's where, uh beyondage kind of 477 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 7: kind of lacked at the moment. 478 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. 479 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:29,159 Speaker 5: Yeah, And and you know, I mean we all we 480 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:32,440 Speaker 5: obviously have seen mid round pigs, fourth, fifth, sixth rounders. 481 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 1: We've seen them shine. 482 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:36,440 Speaker 5: But you know, you're seeing the difference of them drafting 483 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 5: Travis Frederick in the first round and draft drafting in 484 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 5: the fourth. 485 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:44,360 Speaker 1: You know that that was the difference. I mean, they 486 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:45,120 Speaker 1: were different there. 487 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 7: Yeah. Well, that that's another thing that's always kind of 488 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:52,120 Speaker 7: baffled me the last few years, especially since he's been gone. 489 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,919 Speaker 7: People always arguing over should we take a tackler guard 490 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:58,919 Speaker 7: or you know, can the tackle play guard. I was 491 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 7: and I've always kind of argued, we need a center, 492 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 7: we need to replace Travis, you know, since he's been gone. Yeah, 493 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 7: I just kind of kind of hope maybe they kind 494 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 7: of start looking that way more when they have the 495 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 7: opportunity to kind of to get those type of players 496 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 7: earlier in the draft. 497 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:21,160 Speaker 5: All right, all right, appreciate that. I appreciate the call. 498 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 5: You know, the center has been kind of interesting the 499 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:25,920 Speaker 5: last couple of years. It looked like the Cowboys might 500 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:29,199 Speaker 5: focus on that because you know, Beattish was struggling a 501 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:32,159 Speaker 5: little bit and or just hadn't developed like like you 502 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:37,159 Speaker 5: thought he would. It took a little time, so I 503 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 5: think it was what two years ago, you know, there 504 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 5: was some talk that maybe they would draft a center. 505 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 5: When they drafted Tyler Smith. You know, there were some 506 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:48,480 Speaker 5: centers out there. They didn't take any center. They didn't 507 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:50,919 Speaker 5: They weren't in love with some of the centers that 508 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 5: were out there, and and they they felt like what 509 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 5: they had was was better than that. As it turned out, 510 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 5: he made the Pro Bowl. Not take that back. He 511 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 5: didn't make the Pro He made the Pro Bowl this 512 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 5: past year. But either way, I mean, I mean, be honest, 513 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 5: his development has been better. So you know, I feel 514 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 5: like something's got to give here because you know, he's 515 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,200 Speaker 5: another guy with a contract that that's coming up, and 516 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 5: then they got to make some decisions on him. They're 517 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 5: going to see what his long term health looks like. 518 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 5: But yes, it's one of those positions that could be upgraded. 519 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:29,159 Speaker 5: But it's it's working for the most part, and I 520 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 5: don't think it's it's you know, I don't think it's 521 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 5: too troublesome at this at this moment. But like a 522 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 5: lot of positions, you could get better at it, all right, 523 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 5: Chris in San Angelo, what's up? 524 00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:40,399 Speaker 12: Hey? 525 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 8: Doing well? 526 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 13: Nick?

I'm 532 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 13: not really sure how they're doing because I don't think 533 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:57,639 Speaker 13: it's so good. 534 00:24:57,720 --> 00:24:58,120 Speaker 7: All right. 535 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 5: I'm talking about Angelo's eight Rams, which I've seen. I 536 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 5: don't know what the color scheme looks like right now, 537 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 5: but I've seen they look a lot like the La 538 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:07,880 Speaker 5: Rams times the. 539 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 13: Way they yes a lot of similars. Hey, I just 540 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 13: had one question, Nick. With the success of recent success 541 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:21,200 Speaker 13: of the Rangers, basically the team across the street, do 542 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 13: you think that adds any kind of pressure to ownership, 543 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 13: coach anything like that. You know, it's like they hired 544 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 13: them a new guy and then boom during the Yeah, 545 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 13: they're in the series. 546 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:36,239 Speaker 1: You know. 547 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 8: Yeah, A silly question. 548 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 5: No, it's not, it's not, it's not. I mean, it 549 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,479 Speaker 5: gets talked about, It gets talked about here. I just 550 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:48,960 Speaker 5: I don't necessarily think it adds. I mean, let's let's 551 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 5: be honest. How much more pressure could the Cowboys be under? 552 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 5: I mean, how many how much more pressure? I mean 553 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 5: they're there, They're head coach, has won twelve games in 554 00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 5: a row, two years in a row. And if it 555 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 5: doesn't win twelve games this year or go to the 556 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 5: NFC Championship game, there will be a lot of talk 557 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 5: about maybe a change. What more pressure can you have? 558 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 5: I mean the pressure is here. It's nice the Rangers. Yeah, 559 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 5: but the Rangers are not the Cowboys. And let's I 560 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,679 Speaker 5: love watching the Rangers. Whatever the the you know, Friday 561 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,840 Speaker 5: night game one, I don't know what what what kind 562 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 5: of rating that's going to be like on you know, 563 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:28,440 Speaker 5: from television ratings, it'll probably equal the Cowboys preseason game, 564 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:32,120 Speaker 5: that's what you know. I mean, So, I don't know, 565 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 5: Maybe there's the sponsors feel differently, Maybe they feel like 566 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 5: oh you know, maybe you know that they're trying to 567 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 5: get deals done and if the Rangers want it all, 568 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:44,199 Speaker 5: it might effect But we're we're all everyone's pulling for 569 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:46,359 Speaker 5: the Rangers, I think, and I don't think it affects 570 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 5: one way or another. I really don't. 571 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 13: All right, Well, thank you for anyway. 572 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, all right, Chris, Well, have a great weekend.

In another 575 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 5: there's NFL games, I guess tonight. So that's close enough 576 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:07,360 Speaker 5: to go with the weekend.

Uh. 636 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 5: Is it possible we placed too much confidence in Mozzie 637 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 5: Smith's development as a starter. How can we scheme Deuce 638 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 5: more as a slot receiver? Well, we didn't put the 639 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 5: confidence on We didn't put confidence on Mazzi Smith. The 640 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 5: Cowboys did by drafting them. I mean, when when you 641 00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 5: draft a player in the first round, there's a lot 642 00:29:59,080 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 5: of players. 643 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: To take there. 644 00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 5: So usually what you're doing is is you're drafting a 645 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 5: guy that can help you right now in some way 646 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 5: and then down the road. He could be a big 647 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 5: time starter. But but most of the time, as a 648 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 5: first round pick, you expect them to start. That's why 649 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 5: you're taking him to be better than what you have 650 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 5: so and that hasn't been the case so far with Massi. 651 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 5: So I don't think we have put too much expectations. 652 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 5: First round picks typically come in and contribute one way 653 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 5: or another that hasn't happened yet. Not giving up on him, 654 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 5: just saying that that you know that it just hasn't 655 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:38,880 Speaker 5: gelled just yet Deuce as a slot receiver. 656 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 1: But I don't. That's a stretch right there. I don't. 657 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:44,240 Speaker 5: I don't see that as a slot receiver. I think 658 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 5: he could be a gadget type player. But but you know, 659 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 5: they haven't figured out the role for him just yet. 660 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 4: Uh. 661 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 5: And when they have given him the ball, you know, 662 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 5: he hasn't been highly productive either. It's one thing to 663 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 5: go up against guys that aren't going to be in 664 00:30:57,800 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 5: the league, like in the third fourth quarter of a 665 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 5: pret he's in game, but when you're playing actual starters, 666 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 5: it's been a little different for him. So not to 667 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 5: say he can't develop as well, but right now, that's 668 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 5: not the best option there. All right, let's go to 669 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 5: Bruce in Houston on the line. 670 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 12: Bruce, what's up, Hey, Nick, thanks for taking my call. Sure, 671 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 12: Mazzie Smith. I still think it was a great draft. Yeah, 672 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 12: it's not a splash position defensive tackles. They got him 673 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:29,200 Speaker 12: to replace Hankins when he retires or when they don't 674 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 12: resign him. You know, would I like to see, you know, 675 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:37,000 Speaker 12: playing forty percent of snaps. Absolutely, But I think he's 676 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:38,640 Speaker 12: going to grow in that position. I think we're going 677 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 12: to be really glad we got him a year or 678 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 12: two down the Road. 679 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 6: Yeah. 680 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 12: That being said, you know we were talking about earlier 681 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:47,960 Speaker 12: you have about which player or positioned to trade, and 682 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 12: I think running back is because we basically already traded. 683 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 12: We swapped what we traded Joseph for that number one cornerback. 684 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 12: I can't pronounce his name from Miami, But what is 685 00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 12: the team feel about him? 686 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 8: Is he? 687 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 12: I mean, he's the first round talent. Did we have 688 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 12: him rated that high? 689 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 1: Yeah? 690 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 5: I don't know that. I don't know where they had 691 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 5: him rated. You know, obviously probably pretty high because you know, 692 00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 5: he hasn't done anything in Miami and they traded for him. 693 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 5: Now you know, Kelvin Joseph was probably gonna get released, 694 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 5: so you know what you can get for him? 695 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, let's let's try. 696 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 5: Let's let's try to get you know, Igbanogaty is who 697 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 5: you're talking about. Try to get him in here and 698 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 5: see if you know, maybe he can he can develop 699 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:36,640 Speaker 5: a little bit and you know, maybe working with guys 700 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 5: like you know, Trayvon Diggs was was the plan with, 701 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 5: and also Stefan Gilmore and you know, and Al Harris. 702 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 5: I mean Al Harris played the position, uh, you know 703 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:48,600 Speaker 5: for the for the Packers for many, many years, and 704 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,560 Speaker 5: now he's the coach. And sometimes players just need a 705 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 5: little bit of a of a of a change, a 706 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 5: change in scenery, a change, and the voices around them, 707 00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:00,040 Speaker 5: maybe the perspective of a player that that's played. Not 708 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 5: to say that you have to be playing in the 709 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 5: NFL to be a coach. There's some great ones that 710 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 5: never stepped foot on a field. But but sometimes, you know, 711 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 5: you can relate differently to a coach that's actually done it. 712 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 5: You can YouTube his highlights and see what he's done, 713 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:15,480 Speaker 5: and so when he's telling you things that he thinks 714 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 5: you should do, it might register a little different. So 715 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 5: that's kind of the plan. They're not, they're not, you know, 716 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 5: giving up on him. I mean, he he's been he's 717 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 5: behind the eight ball. Same with Mazzy, like you mentioned 718 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 5: in the first part of the call. You know, Mazzi 719 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 5: got drafted and now he's got to come in and 720 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 5: be better. Well, you know, let's let's not forget that 721 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:37,720 Speaker 5: they drafted two third round picks back to back years. 722 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 5: I believe no A Neville Gallimore and Osa Odiggi Zua. 723 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 5: And they've signed, you know, signed Hankins or traded for 724 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 5: Hankins and then resigned him. And and Gallimore and and 725 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 5: is playing better than he has in in in the past, 726 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 5: and Osa is playing out of his mind. So drafting 727 00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 5: Mazzie Smith has has kind of lit a fire and 728 00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 5: some other people as well, which makes it a little 729 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 5: tougher for Mazie to get on the field again. I'm 730 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,960 Speaker 5: not making excuses. He's the first round pick. You you 731 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 5: think he'd be playing a little bit more than he is. 732 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:11,120 Speaker 5: But there's some circumstances here, uh as well. And and 733 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:13,319 Speaker 5: he's having a hard time, you know, beating out the 734 00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,799 Speaker 5: guys that were ahead of them, that are playing pretty well. 735 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 5: All right, let's go with Nigel in Arizona. 736 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 8: Nigel, Yes, sir, how you doing very well in yourself? 737 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:26,239 Speaker 1: I'm good? What's up? 738 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:26,440 Speaker 6: Man? 739 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 4: Oh? Nots much? 740 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 1: Is thisn't it? Yeah? Yeah, we're you're on. You're on 741 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 1: the air. 742 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:35,000 Speaker 4: Let's go nice all right, coach, I'm on it. 743 00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 10: I'm on it. 744 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:40,319 Speaker 4: A couple of a couple of things, you know. It 745 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 4: seems that we get some kind of continenty in training 746 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,920 Speaker 4: training camp is what it is, you know, no hitting, 747 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 4: et cetera. But you know, I mean, I love Michael Gallup, 748 00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:55,160 Speaker 4: great but you know, obviously we all know there's some 749 00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:57,919 Speaker 4: issues going on there, So isn't a time like other 750 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:00,799 Speaker 4: teams to pull some of these guys off off the show, 751 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:03,879 Speaker 4: like the two Jalen's and just see what they give 752 00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:07,239 Speaker 4: us as well as I think Turpin should be in 753 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 4: there at least one down every four stretch that field, 754 00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:13,840 Speaker 4: if you're going on a pass, when on pass play. 755 00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:14,800 Speaker 8: Et cetera. 756 00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 4: It just seems like, you know, we need a spark somewhere. 757 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,960 Speaker 4: Same thing with Deuce. I know the last game he played, 758 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:25,319 Speaker 4: he couldn't cover, he couldn't block, but you know, they 759 00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:27,840 Speaker 4: pinned their ears back as we were down and you know, 760 00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:31,120 Speaker 4: kind of left them in a in a no win scenario. 761 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:34,120 Speaker 4: But I think him in the backfield with Tony splitting 762 00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:37,759 Speaker 4: him out, maybe out on screens or get just give 763 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 4: him a moment to get open and he and you 764 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:41,479 Speaker 4: know that he can do the rest. 765 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:42,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. 766 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:43,680 Speaker 4: I appreciate you. 767 00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 5: All right, thanks Nigel, I appreciate that. Thanks for the call. 768 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,239 Speaker 5: And you know there's been some talk this week about that, 769 00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:53,160 Speaker 5: you know here on the show. I can't say that 770 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:57,480 Speaker 5: that they're talking about reducing gallops workload. 771 00:35:57,640 --> 00:35:58,239 Speaker 1: I don't I. 772 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 5: Don't I don't know if that'll happen. But the good 773 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,839 Speaker 5: thing is is that receiver you probably can do that 774 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:07,239 Speaker 5: better than any other position where you can just you know, 775 00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:10,440 Speaker 5: there's a lot of different packages. There's there's different sets, 776 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:14,440 Speaker 5: uh where you know, if you want to put Turpin 777 00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:16,360 Speaker 5: and Tolbert on the field a little. 778 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,840 Speaker 1: Bit more, you can do that. And and and. 779 00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:22,200 Speaker 5: You know, does gallops reps go down? Yeah, And it 780 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 5: seems like it's possible to happen. So you know, I 781 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:29,080 Speaker 5: think I think that if that's what they feel, then 782 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,880 Speaker 5: we can see that happening. I mean, was it just 783 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:34,560 Speaker 5: a few years ago. I mean I remember Noah Brown 784 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 5: was the fifth receiver. He was getting some reps. Cedric 785 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:39,759 Speaker 5: Wilson was getting reps in there, and you know, and 786 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:43,319 Speaker 5: so they they they have ways of getting the more. 787 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:45,360 Speaker 5: You know, if they want to see these wide receivers 788 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,239 Speaker 5: do something, you can do it. And you can do 789 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:51,400 Speaker 5: it at the expensive gallops reps. So if they're thinking 790 00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:54,840 Speaker 5: along your lines, that definitely could happen. 791 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:56,240 Speaker 1: I've said it before. 792 00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 5: I I just I'm not worried about see if you 793 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,799 Speaker 5: can just forget about right now because it doesn't matter 794 00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:06,479 Speaker 5: right now. Forget about Michael Gallup's contract. Just forget what 795 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:09,879 Speaker 5: it is and then just have him for the role 796 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 5: that he has, third receiver, mixing in with Tolbert, that's fine. 797 00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:19,640 Speaker 5: And if he gets less reps, that's okay. But I 798 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:22,440 Speaker 5: think he's got value. I think he can make plays 799 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:25,960 Speaker 5: for you. I think that you know, Dak threw him 800 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 5: the ball ten times, he caught three. That's not going 801 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 5: to work in the future, but he did something to 802 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:34,279 Speaker 5: get open for ten times, or you know, I don't 803 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:35,640 Speaker 5: know if he was open all the time. But I 804 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 5: think that you know, Dak has trusted him. They'll just 805 00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 5: I just not discount him just yet. Okay, this is 806 00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 5: the way Gallup has been. He'll come up and surprise 807 00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:49,239 Speaker 5: you when you need him the most. He will make 808 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:51,960 Speaker 5: a play for you. And so I firmly believe that 809 00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 5: I just wouldn't give up on him. 810 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:56,839 Speaker 1: All right. Eric in North Carolina is our next caller. Eric, 811 00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 1: what's up? 812 00:37:58,000 --> 00:37:58,400 Speaker 4: What's up? 813 00:37:59,080 --> 00:37:59,800 Speaker 16: What's good brother? 814 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:00,720 Speaker 1: How you doing? 815 00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:04,520 Speaker 16: Man? Good good show today? And why I say my comment, 816 00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:06,720 Speaker 16: I definitely want to agree with you about Michael Gallup. 817 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,279 Speaker 16: Just give him time. He had a catastrophic injury. He 818 00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:12,359 Speaker 16: still find his way back honestly, but he will make 819 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:16,040 Speaker 16: a play. He's someone that has extreme rapport with that. 820 00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:19,000 Speaker 16: So let's keep these guys and have the familiarity with 821 00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 16: the system and the quarterback as long as possible. So 822 00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 16: I agree with that whole hearted me. I just want 823 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:26,520 Speaker 16: to come in on like all the trade talking everything. 824 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:30,200 Speaker 16: You know, I would rather the Cowpitales not make a 825 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:32,200 Speaker 16: deal of the deadline if it's if they got to 826 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,920 Speaker 16: make a deal that shows us to be desperate, or 827 00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:36,719 Speaker 16: we have to go our way to make the deal 828 00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:38,920 Speaker 16: by giving up a first round or giving up a 829 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:40,759 Speaker 16: second round for the guy that's not even worth it 830 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:43,680 Speaker 16: type deal. You know what I'm saying. So I you know, 831 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:47,680 Speaker 16: if it makes sense, do it. My lead thing would 832 00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:51,600 Speaker 16: be probably like my lead trade idea or great scenario 833 00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:54,399 Speaker 16: would probably be the guy for tendency to running back. 834 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:57,600 Speaker 1: You know, let me let me ask you this. Let 835 00:38:57,640 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 1: me ask you this. 836 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,680 Speaker 5: So when you say that it's got it makes sense, 837 00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:05,759 Speaker 5: would you rather it make sense right now for week 838 00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:09,040 Speaker 5: eight of the season and moving on, or do you 839 00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 5: think making sense means could help right now but will 840 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:15,359 Speaker 5: also help two to three years down there? 841 00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:18,719 Speaker 1: What is your definition of making sense it. 842 00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:22,680 Speaker 16: Helps immediately, but it also protects us in the future 843 00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:25,480 Speaker 16: as well far as losing guys. So yes, it's a 844 00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,439 Speaker 16: short term fix, but also a larned term long term 845 00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 16: fix as well. Certain guys. I think it will work, 846 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:33,319 Speaker 16: you know what I'm saying. That's why I lean to 847 00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:37,720 Speaker 16: the guy Heary Man. You know when Dak and Tony 848 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:41,960 Speaker 16: Poler had a bruising change of pace short yardage back, 849 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 16: it helped Tony Pollard and it helped that in my opinion, 850 00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 16: you know, when we had Ze, it made a better 851 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:49,719 Speaker 16: it showed to be a better vision of power. And 852 00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:52,359 Speaker 16: I don't know, I'm not sure if there if him 853 00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:54,319 Speaker 16: carrying a load is too much for him right now, 854 00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:56,280 Speaker 16: I'm not sure if it is or not on the street. 855 00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:59,320 Speaker 16: So bringing in a guy like Henry will leaves a 856 00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,080 Speaker 16: lot of pressure for him. We go back to that 857 00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:05,160 Speaker 16: that that that lighting and thunder type system which helps Poller. 858 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:08,880 Speaker 16: In my opinion, you got a downhill, bruising runner like 859 00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:11,160 Speaker 16: like this guy, it would definitely help that. You have 860 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:13,800 Speaker 16: to squeeze more guys in the box. That's gonna create 861 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:17,160 Speaker 16: opportunities on the outside with our receivers. I think that 862 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:19,759 Speaker 16: would be the most legitimate move to me outside of 863 00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:23,040 Speaker 16: linebacker depth, you know. So that's just my take on that. 864 00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:24,920 Speaker 16: But don't trade for this guy. If they want to 865 00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:28,600 Speaker 16: first or they want some outlandish trade terms, don't do it. 866 00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:31,440 Speaker 16: We'll just sit sit pack because our future is more 867 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:33,680 Speaker 16: important than the present in my opinion. But if you 868 00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 16: can soothe both, make the move. That's my that's my take. 869 00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:40,160 Speaker 16: We thank you for taking my call again and Cowboys 870 00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:40,719 Speaker 16: for light brother. 871 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:42,359 Speaker 1: All right, thank you, Eric. 872 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,200 Speaker 5: And the one thing you kind of just said that 873 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:46,680 Speaker 5: at the very end, the future is more important than 874 00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 5: the president. That's interesting. I don't think fans feel that way. 875 00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:52,520 Speaker 5: I don't think a lot of them do. I mean 876 00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:56,880 Speaker 5: I think they they they would sit there in April 877 00:40:57,320 --> 00:40:59,319 Speaker 5: and when the draft rolls around and they're like, why 878 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,160 Speaker 5: don't we have more pay like, oh yeah, because we 879 00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:03,799 Speaker 5: traded for this and okay, like you might get frustrated then, 880 00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:06,400 Speaker 5: but as for right now, you know, I think they 881 00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:08,880 Speaker 5: want to go make a move and so and you 882 00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:10,840 Speaker 5: even said it yourself, you kind of change You're like, 883 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,160 Speaker 5: I want to make a move for the future if 884 00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:15,920 Speaker 5: it makes sense. But you're talking about trading for a 885 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:19,360 Speaker 5: running back who's you know, he's up there in age 886 00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:22,360 Speaker 5: and you know, for a running back, and he's probably 887 00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:25,279 Speaker 5: not somebody you'll be you know, building around for for 888 00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:29,880 Speaker 5: a lot of years. So anyways, you know, again, I 889 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 5: don't I don't know what the Cowboys are going to do. 890 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:34,319 Speaker 5: I don't know if they feel the same way. I 891 00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:36,319 Speaker 5: know that they've said we like our players, we like 892 00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 5: our guys. They're always going to say that. They also 893 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 5: said running drafting running backs is really not a smart 894 00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:44,080 Speaker 5: decision in the first round. They said that on the 895 00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:47,359 Speaker 5: Tuesday before the NFL Draft in twenty sixteen when they 896 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:50,040 Speaker 5: took Zeke with the fourth pick. So there's there's a 897 00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:51,960 Speaker 5: lot of thing when you talk to the media about 898 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:55,400 Speaker 5: what you might do. I mean, these guys are business guys. 899 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:56,279 Speaker 1: I mean they know. 900 00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:58,399 Speaker 5: I mean, so you can't just read into a lot 901 00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:00,360 Speaker 5: of things. Do I think they're going to do so something. 902 00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:02,880 Speaker 5: I would be surprised if they did not, and I 903 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:05,239 Speaker 5: usually am the other way, be surprised if they did. 904 00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:07,480 Speaker 5: I'd be surprised if they don't. I think they're going 905 00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:10,719 Speaker 5: to do something to add to this team. All right, 906 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:14,160 Speaker 5: let's go to Josh. He's in Upstate, New York. 907 00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:17,160 Speaker 9: Josh, Nick, how you doing good. 908 00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:18,839 Speaker 8: How are you good? Man? 909 00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,160 Speaker 9: Listened to you since the early two thousands. I can't 910 00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 9: if I get to talk to you this rules. I 911 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:24,640 Speaker 9: got your book. Thank you for all your works you're writing, 912 00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:27,480 Speaker 9: your analysis over the years. Thank you, thank you, Josh. 913 00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:28,160 Speaker 1: I appreciate that. 914 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:29,239 Speaker 16: What do you got? 915 00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 10: Yeah? 916 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:32,719 Speaker 9: Man, I got two questions for you. Onece kind of 917 00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:36,120 Speaker 9: a hypothetical. If you could take Romo eight years into 918 00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:39,359 Speaker 9: his career or Prescott eight years into his career, which 919 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 9: one are you taking on? 920 00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 1: Why? Okay, what would you take? 921 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:48,360 Speaker 9: It's a pretty easy question for me. It'd be Romo. 922 00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:50,320 Speaker 9: I always thought that he elevated to play if his 923 00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:53,520 Speaker 9: receivers around him, Whereas I feel like Prescott needs his 924 00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:55,200 Speaker 9: receivers play to elevate him. 925 00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:59,080 Speaker 5: Eight years now, eight years into their career or eight 926 00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:03,040 Speaker 5: years into sorry quarterback because it's a different question question. 927 00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:06,640 Speaker 9: Yeah, it is a good question. Yeah, yeah, because. 928 00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:10,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, eight years into Romo's career is two thousand and 929 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:14,080 Speaker 5: what eleven? And uh but he'd only been the sharter 930 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 5: for like three or four years, you know, Dak had 931 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:18,719 Speaker 5: been taking a lot of hits now for eight years. 932 00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:20,560 Speaker 1: So it's a tough one. 933 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:25,440 Speaker 9: I don't know from when they started playing from when 934 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:26,640 Speaker 9: he started playing for the Cowboys. 935 00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:32,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I mean Romo. I mean I think Romo, 936 00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:34,839 Speaker 5: you know, was was figuring things out a little bit 937 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:39,560 Speaker 5: more there. It took him longer to develop. I mean 938 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:43,000 Speaker 5: he's an undrafted guy from eastern Illinois, and Parcels you know, 939 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:46,759 Speaker 5: saw something in him and and and said you know, 940 00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:48,520 Speaker 5: and and and they they liked him right away. I 941 00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:51,399 Speaker 5: remember Darren Woodson telling the story about how his rookie year, 942 00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,560 Speaker 5: Romo was on the scout team and they he told him, 943 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:56,600 Speaker 5: he pulled him aside and said, you're the best quarterback 944 00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:59,239 Speaker 5: we have on this team. Uh, you give us the 945 00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:02,320 Speaker 5: most problem of any quarterback that we face in practice. 946 00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:06,680 Speaker 5: And of course Quincy and Clint Sterner and Chad Hutchinson, 947 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:10,120 Speaker 5: I mean they wasn't talking about you know, Pro bowlers either, 948 00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 5: but but he said that they could see it right away. 949 00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:14,520 Speaker 5: And so, but it took him a little bit and 950 00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:17,440 Speaker 5: you could tell later on in his career he really 951 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:19,920 Speaker 5: started figuring out angles and things like that. But the 952 00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 5: injuries kind of caught up to him. So, but this 953 00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:26,440 Speaker 5: is not a Runo versus Dac debate. I I love 954 00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:28,600 Speaker 5: both those guys. I think Both of them are good 955 00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:31,360 Speaker 5: in their own way, and I think their their careers 956 00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:33,759 Speaker 5: right now as it stands a bit pretty similar to 957 00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:36,000 Speaker 5: what to what they they've done and what they're they're 958 00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:38,120 Speaker 5: you know, they've tried to do what they haven't been 959 00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:42,120 Speaker 5: able to accomplish, you know, to get over the top. 960 00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:45,400 Speaker 5: I mean, I think that where they are ranking NFL 961 00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:48,640 Speaker 5: quarterback wise has always been about the same they've been 962 00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:52,759 Speaker 5: in that next wave of elite guys, and mainly the 963 00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:55,440 Speaker 5: reason for that is because of lack of postseason success. 964 00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:58,560 Speaker 5: You know, when you when you don't do that, then 965 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:00,560 Speaker 5: that's what you've got to get put in another, you 966 00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:03,320 Speaker 5: know category, unless they're just Dan Marino, you know, but 967 00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:06,040 Speaker 5: you know, if you're not you're not putting up all 968 00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:08,839 Speaker 5: kinds of numbers and stats, then you get put there. 969 00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:12,279 Speaker 5: But anyways, that's uh, that's kind of where we stand 970 00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:16,920 Speaker 5: there on that. All right, let's let's uh, let's end 971 00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:18,800 Speaker 5: this thing. We I don't have any other calls on 972 00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:21,040 Speaker 5: the line. I think we're we're good to go. We 973 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:23,960 Speaker 5: got Cowboys break coming up here in a in a 974 00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:26,320 Speaker 5: few minutes, so make sure and stick around for that. 975 00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 5: We got podcasts going all day long today and tomorrow 976 00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 5: as we get you ready for the Cowboys and the 977 00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:35,759 Speaker 5: Rams on Sunday.
