Speaker 2: Welcome to Cowboys Storyline, Tuesday, December seventeenth.

7
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:24,800
Speaker 4: I'm Nick Eveman.

8
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:29,080
Speaker 2: We have different showtime today, had to shuffle some things around.

9
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:32,760
Speaker 2: But still for the most people that are that are

10
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:35,120
Speaker 2: watching this later on or watching this at night, they we'll.

11
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 4: Know the difference.

12
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 2: So all good. We already got callers on the line.

13
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:42,159
Speaker 2: We're gonna take calls all day long, so and we've

14
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,520
Speaker 2: got the shows all day long as well. It doesn't

15
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 2: stop even when we move things around, even when Chris

16
00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:49,600
Speaker 2: is not in the office. It looks like Jazz is

17
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 2: back there rolling things today. So all right, let's go

18
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:55,320
Speaker 2: to uh, let's start it off with the calls. Let's

19
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 2: get right after it here Irene and falls Church, Virginia

20
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 2: has been on the line. Irene, what's up guy?

21
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:04,679
Speaker 5: Good morning? Shout out to Jazz for subn today. Couldn't

22
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 5: leave you hanging with the time change. Just in case,

23
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:08,679
Speaker 5: you know, I had to call in. I'll give you

24
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,679
Speaker 5: my question to comments and then take your answers off

25
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:14,279
Speaker 5: air to keep the lines clear. Don't think it sounded

26
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:16,680
Speaker 5: like there was an injury up down during Lewis yesterday.

27
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:19,480
Speaker 5: I haven't seen anything come through today, so wondering about that,

28
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 5: especially with Digs out for the season. Buccaneers obviously have

29
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 5: Mike Evans, and then this McMillan kid really shown up

30
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 5: since Godwin went down. I think the other thing is

31
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:32,760
Speaker 5: that this will be a huge game for Kendricks and

32
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 5: Leafile with both running backs. I have Rashadway on my

33
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 5: one of my fantasy teams and he is great as

34
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:42,199
Speaker 5: a receiver on screens and wheel routes, so that's something

35
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 5: to watch. One last thing, shameless plug for the storyliner's community.

36
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 5: Our guy Travis and san Antonio has started a draft show.

37
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 5: Doesn't mean we won't watch your draft show.

38
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 6: We will.

39
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 5: It'll it'll air Monday night. They're going through position groups.

40
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 5: There's a couple other guys who started with them. They

41
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 5: don't call him the show, but they listen. Kyle and

42
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 5: Cason shout out to them. I'm forty five minutes into

43
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 5: a two hour and fifteen minutes podcast. We're discussing the legedness,

44
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,119
Speaker 5: so I'm loving it. All right, that's it. Thanks so much.

45
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 4: All right, thank you. I did see that.

46
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 2: I did see the there was a draft another draft

47
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:22,920
Speaker 2: Show Storyliners edition. That's a that'll be interesting. And it

48
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 2: sounds like you guys are already starting it. That's that's

49
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 2: one of the things that for us, we've always kind

50
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 2: of tried to figure out when's the best time to

51
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 2: do that. Personally, I think I think starting it in

52
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 2: January is fine. You know, let's wait till everybody declares

53
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 2: for the draft and and see who's out there and

54
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 2: see what the order is and all that good stuff.

55
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 2: But you know what, in a season like this, people

56
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 2: want to just go ahead and start thinking about, uh,

57
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 2: next year, next year. You know, they're they're oh, and oh,

58
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:54,799
Speaker 2: I haven't won it or lost any games. So I

59
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 2: get that concept as well, but it's just there's to me,

60
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 2: there's just a lot, uh, you know, to figure out,

61
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 2: and and nothing really happens until they you know, and

62
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,119
Speaker 2: they start getting pro day's and combine and stuff like that.

63
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 4: That's when it starts to heat up.

64
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,079
Speaker 2: So I always kind of, you know, I would wait

65
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 2: a little bit, but you guys, hey, get after it.

66
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 4: Have some fun with that.

67
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 2: As Irene was talking about Tampa, you know, they're obviously

68
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 2: playing better. I think they've won four straight games, so

69
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,359
Speaker 2: you know, they they were in there, they were They've

70
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 2: had a tough year as far as like their fans go,

71
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 2: as a roller coaster type. You know, they've had somewhere.

72
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 2: You know, they beat Detroit and they beat Philly. When

73
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 2: they beat Philly in week four. I mean, I don't

74
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 2: think Philly has lost since then. They haven't, but but

75
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 2: it certainly didn't look like one team was gonna win

76
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 2: like ten in a row. One team was gonna kind

77
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 2: of go have an up and down year, just the

78
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 2: way Tampa won that game. But but you know, they

79
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 2: they've had some a rough patch there, Baltimore, Kansas City,

80
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 2: San Francisco, Baltimore.

81
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 4: I mean, those are tough losses.

82
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 2: But since then they've won four straight games and and

83
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 2: they're in place in their division, I believe, so they

84
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 2: have an opportunity to do some things. But you know,

85
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 2: the way Dallas is playing too, it'll it'll be uh,

86
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 2: it should be a good one, you know. I know

87
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 2: there's some talk about flexing this game down at some point,

88
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 2: but you know, it's the Cowboys and Cowboys, and so

89
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,600
Speaker 2: you know they're they're playing better. Tampa Bay's obviously playing better,

90
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 2: so I think it's gonna work out fine for NBC.

91
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Brian in Kansas City.

92
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:27,279
Speaker 7: Good afternoon, sir.

93
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 4: How are you?

94
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 7: I never get to say good afternoon, Nick?

95
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 2: I know, I know it's it's rare. I mean, you

96
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 2: you could. You can always say it. You know, you

97
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 2: can say whatever you want, you know, but you can

98
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 2: say happy, happy Monday, even when it's not so.

99
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 4: But I understand what you're saying.

100
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:48,159
Speaker 8: Proud of that, And like Irene, I'll double down and

101
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 8: jazz handle them out handling business this morning.

102
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 7: We always love to talk to her, and boy, she's

103
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:55,160
Speaker 7: got this thing running smoothly.

104
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 4: Yeah she does.

105
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 7: So I got two things. One is kind of a

106
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,919
Speaker 7: big picture your question, and then one is of this

107
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 7: week question. Okay, so just knowing who we're facing this week,

108
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 7: and I want to know. I don't not asking what

109
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 7: you think the Cowboys are going to do. I want

110
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:14,159
Speaker 7: to know what you think. I think if it was me,

111
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 7: I'd put mcclomalo on Evans, just for body style, just

112
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 7: for the body type. I mean, just put the biggest

113
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,479
Speaker 7: guy out there, and you know, maybe you know, put

114
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:27,840
Speaker 7: the safety over the top or whatever. But that's what

115
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 7: I think I would do, kind of like interested to

116
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:32,280
Speaker 7: see what your opinion on that is.

117
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,119
Speaker 8: And then you know, I called in on the break

118
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,479
Speaker 8: this morning and through this they called it a grenade

119
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:43,839
Speaker 8: into the mix when everybody's healthy. And you know, I'm

120
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,799
Speaker 8: making the guests that Martin might hang up as tweets,

121
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 8: would you want Hoffman at center and BB.

122
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 7: At guard or the other way around? And I'll hang

123
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:56,599
Speaker 7: up and take that one off air brother.

124
00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:02,279
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, thank you, I'll answer that are first.

125
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:06,880
Speaker 2: You know, let's I think that their body types are similar.

126
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 2: That's why it was a It was a good competition

127
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 2: at center. I would I would imagine, you know, baby

128
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:21,119
Speaker 2: didn't play center in in college and then the knock

129
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 2: on him was that he didn't have long enough arms

130
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 2: to play guards, so that's why they they put him

131
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 2: at center. Yeah, if they're let's see who the who

132
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,040
Speaker 2: the Let's see what the coaching staff looks like. Let's

133
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,160
Speaker 2: see what the running game looks like. You know, if

134
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:36,600
Speaker 2: is there going to be a new coach? Is there

135
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 2: gonna be a new offensive line coach? I mean, those

136
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:42,719
Speaker 2: those are questions that you know, if you're gonna ask

137
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,599
Speaker 2: those for down the road, and then I think that

138
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,479
Speaker 2: all the cards have to be on the table. It's

139
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 2: a good question, and it's hard to answer because I

140
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,480
Speaker 2: think one person could see it one way, one person

141
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,160
Speaker 2: could see another. I think it's got to come down

142
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 2: to comfort. You know who who also can can do this,

143
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 2: and that is Hoffman. Is he better at guard than

144
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:05,919
Speaker 2: he is center? Those are just things that need to

145
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 2: be kind of graded out. But it's a good question

146
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 2: because I think it's it's one that could go either way.

147
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 2: And sometimes when you have, you know, close calls, it

148
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 2: comes down to uh, tiebreakers, and the tiebreaker here could

149
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 2: be shotgun snaps, you know who does who does that better?

150
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 2: Who makes the calls better? Who reads the defense better?

151
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 2: So good, good, good question there, And I don't have

152
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 2: a great answer. I think if they both can play,

153
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 2: they'll line up and and and that really could be

154
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 2: the case because Hoffman is just doing too much when

155
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 2: he's in the game for it to be a coincidence.

156
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 2: You know, the first game that he played Arizona, they lost.

157
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,239
Speaker 2: They didn't do well in the red zone. He maybe

158
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 2: blame some of it on him, but they ran it well.

159
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 2: Then he played again against Washington at the end of

160
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 2: the season. Washington wasn't very good, had guys out a

161
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 2: lot of points score this year that he's gotten in

162
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 2: the game. But now he's playing, and he's playing against

163
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 2: pretty good teams, pretty good defenses, and and they keep

164
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 2: doing better and better each week. So I think he's

165
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 2: a big part of it as well. And then your

166
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 2: first part about mccuamu versus Mike Evans, I mean it's

167
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,320
Speaker 2: not I mean, it's not always first and goal with

168
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 2: the five, you know, it's not always fades.

169
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 4: So when you see that, you're like, oh, that would

170
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 4: be a good matchup.

171
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 2: But what about at midfield when mccamu's got to turn

172
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 2: those hips, he's got to he's got to, you know,

173
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 2: run with it. It could be a five yard slant,

174
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,199
Speaker 2: it could be a stop, it could be it could

175
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 2: be a go. That's why Mike Evans is in a

176
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:40,679
Speaker 2: very very you know, rare company when it comes to

177
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 2: what he's done. I believe he's the only player in

178
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 2: NFL history to start his career with like nine straight

179
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 2: one thousand yard seasons. He may be up to ten

180
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:51,959
Speaker 2: at some point, uh now, and maybe at ten he

181
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 2: he's so good, and he's and he's good on the

182
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 2: entire field. Mccuamu hasn't proven, you know, hasn't had the

183
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 2: opportunity all the time, but hasn't really proven to be

184
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:05,840
Speaker 2: that shutdown corner or that, you know, just every down corner.

185
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 2: So I don't know if I like that. I think

186
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:09,960
Speaker 2: I think your best cover guy's got to be on him.

187
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,560
Speaker 2: That your best guy. And even though he doesn't match up,

188
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 2: you know, height wise, it could be drawn bland, but

189
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 2: I would probably go that route. Maybe when you get

190
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 2: to the red zone, you want to try something different.

191
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 4: I'm fine with that. All right, Let's go to Jeff

192
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 4: and Salt Lake City. Hey, Nick, how are you good?

193
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 4: How are you doing?

194
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 6: Hey, I'm doing good. It's been a while since I

195
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,080
Speaker 6: talked to you, but just just wanted to let you know.

196
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 6: I listened to every show and have kind of heard

197
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:37,839
Speaker 6: everything over the last little bit, but I just wanted

198
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:39,840
Speaker 6: to give you my thoughts. I hope I'm not backtracking

199
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 6: a little bit, but just over over the last you know,

200
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 6: they talk about us winning three of the last four games,

201
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,720
Speaker 6: which is great. I don't ever root for Dallas to lose.

202
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,080
Speaker 6: I love the draft, just like everybody else. I'd love

203
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:54,959
Speaker 6: the higher draft pick, but a win is a win

204
00:09:55,080 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 6: and I'll take it. But in regards to a potential coach,

205
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 6: new coaching staff, or head coaching search following this season,

206
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 6: if it happens or not, I hope the Jones the

207
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,960
Speaker 6: Jones Boys just take in the totality of the season.

208
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 6: And I know, like you've said in the past, taken

209
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 6: to the totality of the past five seasons, you can't

210
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 6: discount the three, twelve and five seasons. But I just

211
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 6: don't feel that this coaching staff gives us an advantage.

212
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 6: Earlier in the year, they were a lot of the

213
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 6: players were talking about not focused, practices were terrible and

214
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 6: all that kind of stuff, and that falls on your

215
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,440
Speaker 6: coaching staff. That's where I and I know they've been

216
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:40,320
Speaker 6: playing well over the last you know, three to four weeks,

217
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 6: but look who we've played. We played the bottom barrels

218
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 6: of the bottom barrels of the NFL, and those are

219
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 6: the teams that we've beaten. So I'm listening to the

220
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 6: Jones Boys over their interviews over the last couple of

221
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 6: days and listening to what Steven says, it seems like

222
00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:02,199
Speaker 6: the excuse for this season if things continue to kind

223
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 6: of digress, is going to be the injuries. I just

224
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 6: want to throw a comparison out to you, like, look

225
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 6: at Detroit is going through the same thing right now,

226
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 6: Like they have a skeleton crew out there on defense,

227
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:16,319
Speaker 6: and they're twelve and two. Although we lost our quarterback.

228
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 6: Our team wasn't playing well even when Dak was playing.

229
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 6: We were three and five when he got hurt. So

230
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,440
Speaker 6: I don't want them to use the injuries as an

231
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 6: excuse for a lost season.

232
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 2: One more thing, why that though, But but but here's

233
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 2: the thing. Okay, Detroit, who else? I mean, because Detroit,

234
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,680
Speaker 2: Detroit did not lose Gothy. They didn't and and let's

235
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:39,200
Speaker 2: see what happens when they you know, they lost their

236
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 2: running back, they lost Aiden Hudginson. I know that they

237
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 2: have done a good job and they're not Detroit. Detroit

238
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 2: is on a higher level. But but so if it's

239
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 2: not the injuries, I mean, like, is it just coaching?

240
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 2: You think it's it's just coaching.

241
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 6: Well, but you say Detroit's on a higher level.

242
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 5: So does that?

243
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,559
Speaker 6: Does dude, the Joneses actually believe that? Do they believe

244
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 6: coming in this year that they could compete with Detroit. Well,

245
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 6: say that they're on a higher level.

246
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 2: Well, they're, they're a better team, and that we we

247
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 2: saw that when they came in here and dominated the game.

248
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 2: I mean they are, they are on a higher level

249
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 2: for for this year. No one's comparing the franchises. I

250
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:19,199
Speaker 2: mean Detroit, No, Yeah, Detroit's still gonna looking for their

251
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 2: best win of all time. I mean they're they're they're

252
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 2: seeking it now. So but my point is is, if

253
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,560
Speaker 2: is it just is it coaching now? Is I mean,

254
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 2: was it not coaching in twelve and five? But now

255
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 2: it is, like, I don't know, you have to throw

256
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,960
Speaker 2: in you have to I mean that's part.

257
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,559
Speaker 6: And I agree, I agree. I agree. We had some

258
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 6: like some losses all the way back into training camp,

259
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 6: so I agree with you there.

260
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:45,679
Speaker 9: I just don't want.

261
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,200
Speaker 6: Them to come out and then and then just say

262
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 6: it's all injuries. And then when it comes into free

263
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 6: agency this coming off season, listening to what Steven's saying,

264
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 6: he's going back to the cap, things like that, I

265
00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 6: don't want him them to come out and say like, well,

266
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 6: look what we're getting back next year, that's gonna make

267
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 6: us better. Meanwhile, we're not adding anything. We have ten

268
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 6: draft picks. We're going to have a lot of potential

269
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 6: free agent losses this offseason with ohs Uh and Goalston

270
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:15,960
Speaker 6: on the defensive line, Jordan Lewis, we're going to be

271
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:17,839
Speaker 6: losing a lot and we're not going to have enough

272
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 6: assets to be able to replenish that in the draft.

273
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,480
Speaker 6: So that I just I'm hoping there's going to be

274
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 6: a potential mindset change, and whether that's a new coaching staff,

275
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 6: a new regime that comes in, I just hope that

276
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 6: things change for the better, you know, all right, I

277
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,439
Speaker 6: don't know, Nick, I'm venting a little bit. I'll let

278
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 6: you kind of.

279
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 2: Okay, No, I appreciate it, Jeff appreciate the call, and

280
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 2: and you're not wrong in that, and that nobody wants

281
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 2: to hear the excuse part of it. Let's let's throw

282
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 2: this part out there. This is you're going to hear

283
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 2: this side from from the front office because we heard

284
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 2: it in camp when in training camp Jerry said, we

285
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,560
Speaker 2: got ten Pro Bowl on this team. We have ten

286
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 2: guys and I think fourteen guys who have been to

287
00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:05,959
Speaker 2: the Pro Bowl, but ten guys that were in a

288
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 2: Pro Bowl. Eight of them are position guys. Let's just

289
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 2: I mean Aubrey and Anger. Those guys don't get hurt.

290
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 2: They've been they've been good, they've been fine for sure.

291
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,960
Speaker 2: Your eight position guys that you have, those are the

292
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 2: guys that they were counting on. Six of those guys

293
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 2: have been on injured reserve this year and it missed

294
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 2: that four games or more. And I don't mi like

295
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:29,480
Speaker 2: it wasn't on injured reserve, but he's missed four games

296
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 2: or more. He should have been on injured reserve. And

297
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 2: so that's that's significant. That's not just what everyone's dealing with.

298
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 2: That's that's significant. Those are the guys they were leaning

299
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 2: on and and they got hurt, and they got hurt

300
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 2: a lot. Now when you said before that, I mean

301
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 2: that they weren't playing well. Look at the New Orleans game,

302
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 2: great example. We saw the problems right then and there,

303
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,000
Speaker 2: and there were a lot of these guys still still there,

304
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:58,480
Speaker 2: still healthy. So I'm not giving them a complete pass

305
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 2: on that. But you have a chance to get better,

306
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 2: turn things around. Yeah, it was one game, two games, whatever,

307
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 2: let's let's get better and play better. And and then

308
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,760
Speaker 2: when that was happening, the injuries just never stopped, never stopped.

309
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 2: So I think injuries are part of it. It's not

310
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 2: all of it, though, And so I'm I'm with you

311
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:18,120
Speaker 2: on some and I think I think it is a

312
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 2: legitimate for them to say, you know, kind of what if.

313
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 2: But if you know, I do think that that McCarthy's

314
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 2: done a nice job in the in the five years

315
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,360
Speaker 2: that he's been here. Uh, they didn't forget how to coach,

316
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 2: but but they they knew that this year was going

317
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,480
Speaker 2: to be tough, that their depth was going to be tested.

318
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:42,040
Speaker 2: They could not they could not afford to have key injuries,

319
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 2: and they had a ton of them. And you know,

320
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 2: I think when you add those together, that's kind of

321
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 2: what you what you end up with. All right, let's

322
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 2: go back to the phone lines here, Travis and san Antonio.

323
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 4: What's up man?

324
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 10: Hey, Nick, how's it going good?

325
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 4: How are you good?

326
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,920
Speaker 10: Shout out to Jazz in the back for being I'm

327
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:04,000
Speaker 10: and doing a great job. I don't know, I haven't

328
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 10: been able to listen to the show, but I'm kind

329
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 10: of picking up I guess that's sort of what I've

330
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 10: kind of hitting soul places on the same stuff you

331
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 10: guys have talked about. But I was having a little

332
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:15,480
Speaker 10: Twitter chat with Rick in Massachusetts and then Mike across

333
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 10: the pond about some stuff, and actually it was a

334
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 10: thread that Derek hauld comment on. All positive stuff, Nick,

335
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 10: none of the like normal Twitter stuff where people are

336
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 10: getting crazy, just good conversation. And I guess I look

337
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 10: at Mike McCarthy. My only thing with Mike McCarthy is

338
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 10: it sounds like Jerry's saying that him and Zim are

339
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 10: tied together and they definitely it sounds like they definitely

340
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 10: want Zim back, which means Micha will probably be back.

341
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 10: And my thing is I just I said it after

342
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 10: Dak went down in the Atlanta game, Nick, and I

343
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 10: think it's kind of the thing you were just talking about,

344
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 10: Like I'm I'm judging him, like don't forget, we can't

345
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:56,120
Speaker 10: forget like how the offense looked before Dak went down.

346
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 10: I'm not going to absolve you know, the whole season

347
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 10: on offense of well, you know, we had injuries, we

348
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 10: have a pre Dak how to look and we saw

349
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 10: some of the same issues, which I think might have

350
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 10: been what you were just talking about, But we saw

351
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,640
Speaker 10: some of the same issues on offense that we saw

352
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 10: in the previous years, so I don't think that can

353
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 10: be ignored, right, But then I wanted to spin it

354
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 10: forward because we talked about, you know, now all of

355
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,920
Speaker 10: a sudden we have a backp quarterback end. You see,

356
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,160
Speaker 10: we were talking about it like going in a nine

357
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,320
Speaker 10: or down, about just maybe trying to commit more on

358
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,960
Speaker 10: remember that call, but commit more to the run. Now

359
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 10: you start seeing Nick like Mike has sort of gone

360
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:38,200
Speaker 10: that route because and maybe this is a speculation my part,

361
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 10: but because he has Cooper Russian there, he's starting to

362
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,120
Speaker 10: commit to the run a little bit more and make

363
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 10: an emphasis. And we can sit here and say, oh,

364
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:46,639
Speaker 10: it's just brought off and being in for Zach, but

365
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 10: that's not true because I mean, if I told somebody

366
00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 10: that we have a Doga starting at left tackle against Carolina,

367
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,560
Speaker 10: then he goes to right guard, then you have broadcop

368
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,480
Speaker 10: from going to right guard going to center. I mean,

369
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 10: and the weird thing is, Nick, we're just plugging offensive

370
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 10: line in there and still running the ball. Well, So

371
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:06,360
Speaker 10: I do think sometimes it comes back to even though

372
00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,960
Speaker 10: it sounds, it's not just the simple Nick, but just

373
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 10: making a commitment to run the ball, getting your offensive

374
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,399
Speaker 10: line moving forward and all of a sudden, pass protection

375
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,880
Speaker 10: becomes a little easier because you wear guys down. So

376
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 10: I want to hit you with this and let you

377
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 10: let you answer it. But you made a comment yesterday

378
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 10: about Greg Olsen being a great commentator, and I agree.

379
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,639
Speaker 10: He asked the question Nick that I want to get

380
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 10: your opinion on going into next year because if Mike

381
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,760
Speaker 10: McCarthy is here, He asked during the game on the broadcast,

382
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:35,879
Speaker 10: I think this team and Mike McCarthy especially, is going

383
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 10: to have to look at how they're winning games last

384
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,240
Speaker 10: year and how they're winning games right now, and does

385
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 10: the way that they're winning games right now running the

386
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:46,639
Speaker 10: ball serve them better to make a deep run the

387
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 10: playoffs versus the way they were doing it before, like

388
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,240
Speaker 10: last year. So I just want to see you thought

389
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:51,399
Speaker 10: on that.

390
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,159
Speaker 2: Okay, thank you, thanks to the call, Travis. You know,

391
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 2: I agree with that because we found that out. We've

392
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 2: been seeing that here in the last few years. Playoff

393
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:06,919
Speaker 2: football does come down to the running game. And and

394
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 2: I know the NFL has changed control a more wide

395
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 2: open passing league and all that, but you still got

396
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,439
Speaker 2: to run the ball. And the Cowboys were were blown

397
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:17,439
Speaker 2: out last year at home by by Green Bay that

398
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 2: committed to doing that, and and they were better at

399
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 2: running it, and they ran it right down the Cowboys

400
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 2: throwing then nothing they could do about it. And the

401
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 2: year before and they lost to the forty nine ers,

402
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 2: same type of thing. It was a running game. It

403
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,639
Speaker 2: was a physical type game. And I think that's what

404
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,160
Speaker 2: happens in the playoffs, and you have to figure that out.

405
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:37,360
Speaker 2: I think you're right about that, that they're they're doing things.

406
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:41,200
Speaker 2: It's not just you know, it's it's not just because

407
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 2: they're playing bad defenses or they're just.

408
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:45,680
Speaker 4: You know, commitment to run.

409
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 2: It's they have to do that. I mean, Cooper Rush

410
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:54,120
Speaker 2: is limited. He's been solid here and he's and he's

411
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 2: won some games, but we see it like doesn't hit

412
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,439
Speaker 2: this the simple throws sometimes, you know, he just doesn't

413
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 2: have the arm talent for it. He doesn't have any

414
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 2: like real wiggle in the pocket of you know, moving

415
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 2: around and and and if they get you know, their

416
00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 2: hands on you, he's pretty much sacked or you know,

417
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:17,639
Speaker 2: you're gonna throw it away quick or whatever.

418
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,639
Speaker 4: So he's limited in that. They have to focus on

419
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:22,199
Speaker 4: running it.

420
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:25,000
Speaker 2: And now the question is, and I think that's what

421
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 2: either you're alluding to or Greg Olsen's alluding to.

422
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 4: We're all looking at it here.

423
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 2: Is that if you if you need to be that

424
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 2: type of team that relies on the run, then should

425
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,440
Speaker 2: you have a sixty million dollar quarterback. I mean, that's

426
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,719
Speaker 2: that's kind of what it comes down to. And and

427
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,120
Speaker 2: and I think Dak has always needed to help Most

428
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 2: quarterbacks do. Most quarterbacks do need a running game, Patrick Mahomes,

429
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:52,480
Speaker 2: he needs one, you know, some more than others, but

430
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 2: I definitely think they need a running game for sure.

431
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 2: All right, let's go to break here on on Cowboys storyline,

432
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,080
Speaker 2: and we got a couple more calls on the line.

470
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 2: seven had a couple of callers already on the line here,

471
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,359
Speaker 2: So let's get right back to a Kansas City Joe

472
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:13,840
Speaker 2: in Kansas City?

473
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:17,639
Speaker 4: Funny Nicks? How you doing, Casey, Joe Man? How you?

474
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 13: How are you doing doing great?

475
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:19,880
Speaker 4: This morning?

476
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 13: Nick? How are you doing today?

477
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 4: Great? What's up?

478
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,880
Speaker 13: I'm thinking about the running back situation. I know Dalla's

479
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:29,080
Speaker 13: looking pretty decent, but I know that Zeke's on a

480
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,760
Speaker 13: one year deal. Cooks is on a one year deal.

481
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:36,560
Speaker 13: That would leave Looky and Duce, Vaughan and Davis. Do

482
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,199
Speaker 13: you think we should go high in the draft with

483
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,680
Speaker 13: a running back just so that we have a backup

484
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:43,120
Speaker 13: for Donald.

485
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:46,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you may not have Daddell. He's he's

486
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 2: a free agent too. I mean he's I mean, the whole,

487
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 2: the whole running back room is uh is up in

488
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,720
Speaker 2: the air right now, and so you know, I think

489
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,440
Speaker 2: I think it would it would probably be a good

490
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,560
Speaker 2: situation for him to re sign. Let's see what the

491
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,160
Speaker 2: money looks like, but you know, he might. He probably

492
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 2: gonna get a thousand yards and I don't know if

493
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,199
Speaker 2: that's still the same as it used to be, but

494
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 2: for how things started and how he's playing here down

495
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,199
Speaker 2: the stretch, he's going to get some kind of contract

496
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,199
Speaker 2: and and I think it would make sense to be

497
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:18,919
Speaker 2: here for him. You know, he knows this system or

498
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,400
Speaker 2: whoever whatever the system is. But still he knows the team,

499
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,439
Speaker 2: he knows the organization, and he's going to have a

500
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:27,359
Speaker 2: good chance to to you know, be the starter. But yeah,

501
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,360
Speaker 2: to answer your question, I would draft of running back.

502
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 2: I didn't have to be in the first round, of course,

503
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,880
Speaker 2: but any other round, if if the if the fact

504
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 2: that you like is there, I it justifies for me.

505
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:43,200
Speaker 13: Yeah, me too, especially since we went high on Zeke

506
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:44,840
Speaker 13: and we had a really good running back when we

507
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 13: went with, you know, one of the top picks on them,

508
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 13: so and that would help Dack out when when he

509
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 13: comes back. You know, I think he's going to need

510
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:54,360
Speaker 13: that running I do.

511
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:57,680
Speaker 2: Too, and I could see it back similar Like I'm

512
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,240
Speaker 2: not I'm not saying this. I don't get involved tampering here,

513
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,120
Speaker 2: but I'm just saying it was a couple of years ago,

514
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,960
Speaker 2: second round pick, was it h Chan from Miami?

515
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 4: A speed guy.

516
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 2: Somebody liked that, A fast, a fast running back that

517
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 2: that that can do some things out of the backfield

518
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:16,159
Speaker 2: a little bit different than the Rico. I think that

519
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 2: would be a nice complimentary back if you need that kind.

520
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 2: But then again, remember free agencies first. Then the draft

521
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:26,359
Speaker 2: you may lose Rico. Then you may need an every

522
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:28,960
Speaker 2: down back as well. So we'll see, we'll see how

523
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:32,159
Speaker 2: how it happens here. But yeah, they need to get

524
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:35,840
Speaker 2: a younger running back at some point here in the draft, right.

525
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 13: And the other thing I had is I think that

526
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 13: Brooks has really good hands on the wide receiver group.

527
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 13: I mean, every time they throw him the ball, he

528
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,440
Speaker 13: seems like it's it's like, I don't know, if he's

529
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 13: got some click just sketches it. Yeah, I mean to me,

530
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 13: they should throw him the ball a little more. Yeah,

531
00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 13: he seems a little more accurate.

532
00:25:55,760 --> 00:26:00,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, Jalen Brooks. You're talking about Jalen Brooks. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

533
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 2: all right, all right, thanks for the call, case, Joe

534
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 2: appreciate that. You know, Jalen Brooks has been it's it's

535
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:08,720
Speaker 2: kind of been up and down for him. He talked

536
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 2: about it after the game. He said that, you know,

537
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 2: there's been some frustrating moments this year. He's been inactive

538
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 2: a couple of times, just healthy, scratch, inactive. They tried

539
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 2: to get Ryan Flinoy in there. They want to get

540
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,639
Speaker 2: Jonathan Mingo. They made a trade for for Mingo. So

541
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 2: but through that, he's still done a nice job. And

542
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:31,440
Speaker 2: when you when you look at the last let's see,

543
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:36,560
Speaker 2: it's been three games since Washington games earlier, that's been

544
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,720
Speaker 2: four games. The last four games. He's had a couple

545
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 2: of plays there that were not that Washington game. He

546
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,000
Speaker 2: made a catch on the sideline right before the half.

547
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:46,879
Speaker 2: I thought that that changed a lot. They got a

548
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:50,400
Speaker 2: field goal out of that, got some momentum going into

549
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:52,360
Speaker 2: the locker room and and and that was a big catch.

550
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,440
Speaker 2: And then of course he had the touchdowns, first touchdown

551
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:59,239
Speaker 2: of his career. So he's he's one that he doesn't have,

552
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 2: you know, great speed, he doesn't have great size.

553
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 4: I think he's got good hands.

554
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,800
Speaker 2: I don't know if they're great, but but he's one

555
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,159
Speaker 2: of those guys that he's got a lot of traits,

556
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 2: but not one or two that just stands out. But still,

557
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,440
Speaker 2: you know, if you kind of package it all together

558
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:18,199
Speaker 2: and you and you run the right route and you

559
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:20,240
Speaker 2: have good crisp routes and you know where you're supposed

560
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,439
Speaker 2: to be, he could play multiple positions, then you have

561
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:24,119
Speaker 2: some value. And I think he's doing that. He's a

562
00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,240
Speaker 2: good young young player. All right, let's go to our

563
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:32,399
Speaker 2: next caller, Ali and Florida. How are you pretty good?

564
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:32,640

581
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 9: do a lot of war photography, and believe it or not,

582
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:26,280
Speaker 9: it's just like online and relaxed. When I listen to

583
00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 9: our storyline, which is is great, everybody has a little out.

584
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:34,439
Speaker 9: So having said that, I want to shout out to

585

586
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:45,120
Speaker 9: Christmas and a happy, healthy New Year. And I want

587
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:52,000
Speaker 9: to especially thank Rob, Captain Rob and Randy and Dylan

588
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 9: for all the effort and everybody. I don't want to

589
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 9: single out, but I learned every time I listen to them.

590
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:06,640
Speaker 9: So I have a Christmas wish. I wish Lester Dylan

591
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:10,360
Speaker 9: get on board and create some kind of get together

592
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:14,520
Speaker 9: in ARCSNAR for whoever want to participate. I think it's

593
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 9: a great idea. And then I would love to get

594
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 9: you in the room with Rob and the rest of

595
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 9: the group without your cell phone, and don't put you

596
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 9: in the position because I know you're accompaniment and you

597
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:33,479
Speaker 9: cannot only say certain things and you cannot. I just

598
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 9: want to get you an honest opinion when nobody check it.

599
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:43,440
Speaker 9: You know, that would be great. My Christmas movie is

600
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:49,280
Speaker 9: It's a Wonderful Life and Miracle on thirty four. And

601
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:53,760
Speaker 9: then the question I have for you is this. I

602
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:57,480
Speaker 9: don't know how much you can elaborate on it. I

603
00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:01,280
Speaker 9: say that I hang up out listen now that the

604
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:07,280
Speaker 9: Cowboys in basting back sixty million dollars. I'm a visual guy.

605
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:11,720
Speaker 9: I think that is at his best when they had

606
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 9: a great offensive line in front of him. When his

607
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:20,440
Speaker 9: rush rush rush don't have time, then he lose that edge.

608
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:26,080
Speaker 9: So I think Cowboys they should maybe package something. Maybe

609
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:30,400
Speaker 9: they move off, get a solid left tackle and move

610
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 9: guide them to the right tackle, and then the rest

611
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 9: of the boys are they can mix a match them.

612
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 9: But I think personally I'm speaking, I think we had

613
00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:46,120
Speaker 9: a little drop off for the offensive line.

614
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 1: Coach, we had.

615
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 9: A good one before this year. I don't know I'm

616
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 9: right or wrong. This is my I thought maybe we

617
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:57,960
Speaker 9: had a little bit of drop off. But I will

618
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 9: take your opinion off the phone.

619
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 2: Thank you for everything, all right, Thanks Ollie, appreciate that

620
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 2: I got really two really nice, uh photographs. One of

621
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 2: them is just is it's like a family of elephants.

622
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:18,320
Speaker 2: It's just really awesome.

623
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 6: Though.

624
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:22,360
Speaker 2: It's like you know, from Wildlife, and I was telling Chris,

625
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,479
Speaker 2: I should just put it like right here, you know,

626
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 2: it would be not only be beautiful, but it's kind

627
00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 2: of like the elephants.

628
00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:29,560
Speaker 4: In the room, you know.

629
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:33,640
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know, bad joke anyways, Allie, thank

630
00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:37,120
Speaker 2: you so much. Appreciate that, and hint to everybody else

631
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 2: that's out there that that has resources to whatever it

632
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:42,720
Speaker 2: is that they do their skills.

633
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:43,480
Speaker 15: You know what.

634
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 2: Chris and I accept gifts all the time. Uh No,

635
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 2: I really appreciate that. Awesome said a lot of things.

636
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,959
Speaker 2: I'll say this though, you said Jazz Jazz wants gifts too.

637
00:31:56,040 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 2: Jazz likes she gets a lot of gifts. But I'll

638
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:05,400
Speaker 2: say this about the you said at training camp. Take

639
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 2: your phone away and then I could just really say

640
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:11,760
Speaker 2: what I believe. I mean, I tone it down.

641
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 4: I don't.

642
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:17,720
Speaker 2: I have a you know, potty mouth sometimes, but as

643
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:23,960
Speaker 2: far as the things that I believe, I mean, it's

644
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 2: it's rare that I'm sitting here just biting my tongue

645
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 2: and don't say that. I I you know, what I

646
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:29,560
Speaker 2: think about this team.

647
00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 4: I try.

648
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 2: I just try to be fair and down the middle.

649
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,840
Speaker 2: If it looks good, it's good. If it's bad, it's

650
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:38,040
Speaker 2: it's bad. I mean, and yes, yes, it's a little

651
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:38,800
Speaker 2: different with us.

652
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:39,520
Speaker 4: We know that.

653
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 2: And we're sharing uh, you know, hallway space and and

654
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 2: and buses sometimes and airplanes all the time with people

655
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,320
Speaker 2: and and they have different agendas and you have to

656
00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,560
Speaker 2: be kind of careful about that. But you know, at

657
00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 2: the same time, I mean, i'd like to think if

658
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:58,680
Speaker 2: it's if it's bad. I mean, I get the freedom

659
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 2: to say that, and and and I do and so

660
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:04,400
Speaker 2: and I you know, and I have and I have

661
00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:07,000
Speaker 2: my opinions about a lot of things about next year.

662
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 2: But what I say is is that next year's next year.

663
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 2: We got to get through this. And I know no

664
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 2: one's talking about you know, well, I don't say no one.

665
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:16,240
Speaker 2: Irene started off the show talking about the bucks. But

666
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:18,680
Speaker 2: for the most part, you know, that's not not breaking

667
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 2: down everything that's happened. And I get that, I totally

668
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:23,240
Speaker 2: get that. But that's why I feel like the offseason

669
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:26,560
Speaker 2: is long enough. We'll talk about coaches, we'll talk about draft.

670
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:29,240
Speaker 2: We'll talk about for all that stuff when it's really

671
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,360
Speaker 2: time to do that. Right now, you've got twenty five

672
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:34,280
Speaker 2: free agents, You've got twenty or so coaches that are

673
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:37,080
Speaker 2: coaching for their life, you know, including the head coach down.

674
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:40,880
Speaker 2: You got guys that are coaching and playing for for

675
00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 2: for their jobs. So you know, I, if they're doing that,

676
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:48,240
Speaker 2: then that's that's kind of where I think the primary

677
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:50,480
Speaker 2: focus should be. That's kind of why I have the

678
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 2: attitude that I have there. All right, let's go to

679
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:54,760
Speaker 2: Ronnie in New Jersey. Ronnie, what's up man?

680
00:33:55,560 --> 00:34:01,400
Speaker 14: What's how are you well? Nick that you said that

681
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,440
Speaker 14: somebody did have a good question for you earlier, and

682
00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:09,960
Speaker 14: they were saying about Huffman and bbi Uh, I think

683
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:14,040
Speaker 14: the question was put not in the correct way. Maybe

684
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:18,880
Speaker 14: maybe it's who has the higher ceiling and at which position?

685
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 14: According to that then then you know, I think that's

686
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:25,520
Speaker 14: how you would go. Who will be better at center

687
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,120
Speaker 14: or who will be better at guard, and who where

688
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 14: their ceiling would be in those positions, That's how I

689
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:34,920
Speaker 14: would play them. Yeah, and and and yeah.

690
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,240
Speaker 4: But who determines that, you know, well.

691
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:42,840
Speaker 14: That that's gonna be to whoever the coaches are right next.

692
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:44,880
Speaker 2: Year, right, And that's that's kind of what my point was,

693
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:47,839
Speaker 2: is like, yeah, and I'm all for that at least

694
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:49,960
Speaker 2: if this guy's gonna be great here and this guy

695
00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 2: is a chance to be pretty good. You know, it

696
00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:54,879
Speaker 2: was always the case. Was Zach Martin always the case?

697
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,319
Speaker 2: He could play tackle. I don't think he was going

698
00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:58,879
Speaker 2: to be a Hall of Fame tackle. He was gonna

699
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,040
Speaker 2: be a Hall of Fame guard. Same with So that's

700
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:02,920
Speaker 2: how you play him. So you're you're right in that,

701
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:05,960
Speaker 2: and I just who's gonna well, I don't know if

702
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 2: the people that make those decisions are actually here right now.

703
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:10,920
Speaker 4: I don't know that. Go on.

704
00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:13,239
Speaker 14: You know, I was going to tell you because I

705
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:16,440
Speaker 14: was going to ask you about the defense. Uh, I

706
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:21,200
Speaker 14: see that they're playing much better or the sea playing better.

707
00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 14: He's he's actually playing how everybody the expectations were of

708
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 14: him coming into the season, and he's playing that much

709
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:35,160
Speaker 14: better now late into the season. Is that something that

710
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:38,680
Speaker 14: you've seen where you will consider saying, let's say, I

711
00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 14: know you don't want to speak about, you know, the

712
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:43,800
Speaker 14: features the future, but in the let's say the draft

713
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 14: came down, free agency comes in, first, which I think

714
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 14: that's changed, that it should be draft first than free agency.

715
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:54,760
Speaker 2: Sometimes I think that way too, and then other times

716
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:57,160
Speaker 2: I'm I'm like, no, no, I like it like this,

717
00:35:57,280 --> 00:36:01,080
Speaker 2: So I'm I'm with you on that one.

718
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:00,880
Speaker 5: Right.

719
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:08,080
Speaker 14: So, so our problem has been and for since the nineties,

720
00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,279
Speaker 14: I would say, or since since Bill Parcells was here,

721
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 14: since Bill Parcells left us, because when he was here,

722
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:15,960
Speaker 14: we had a we had a great run defense. But

723
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:20,839
Speaker 14: since that that era, we haven't had this at least

724
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:26,320
Speaker 14: very good run defense or you know, almost almost. You

725
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:28,920
Speaker 14: can't run against this team, you have to pass, right,

726
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:33,960
Speaker 14: If we had a dominant defensive tackle, and and that's

727
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:35,600
Speaker 14: what I would go for. Like this year, we've been

728
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,799
Speaker 14: drafting offensive lineman. Yeah, I'm not saying. Let's say we

729
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:42,799
Speaker 14: had like a Slater Slater that when Parsons came out

730
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 14: and it was between Slater and Parsons. Yeah, well, if

731
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,919
Speaker 14: there was a tackle like that, then yeah, grab that guy.

732
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:53,359
Speaker 14: But if there's a defensive lineman, defensive tackle, I think

733
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:56,320
Speaker 14: we got to upgrade our our our run defense and

734
00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:59,040
Speaker 14: get some pass rush out of that defensive tackle because

735
00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:02,440
Speaker 14: right now, yeah, we're getting it out of O Digitsua.

736
00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:05,680
Speaker 14: But you know, I see that when I heard that

737
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 14: our nose tack was cleaning a little bit better. But

738
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:11,600
Speaker 14: we need a lot more, need a lot more out

739
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:13,240
Speaker 14: of that position. Opinion.

740
00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 2: All right, Ronnie appreciate that. I agree, Uh, defensive tackles spot,

741
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 2: you know, and they tried. I mean they they drafted

742
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:24,400
Speaker 2: Mazzie first round pick, and they hadn't picked in the

743
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:27,120
Speaker 2: first round a defensive tackle in over thirty years, and

744
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:29,839
Speaker 2: so they kind of thought, hey, taking them here would

745
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:34,080
Speaker 2: be good. And he's been he's been solid this year.

746
00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:38,120
Speaker 2: You know, he's still he's still after almost two seasons.

747
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,479
Speaker 2: He's probably not where you would want him your first

748
00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:45,080
Speaker 2: round pick to be after two seasons. You know, in

749
00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:47,400
Speaker 2: the first round pick, you'd like for them to to

750
00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:50,880
Speaker 2: maybe be in consideration for a Pro Bowl and you

751
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:52,719
Speaker 2: know that that kind of stuff. That's kind of what

752
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:58,239
Speaker 2: happened with I think Byron Jones about that time for

753
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:02,439
Speaker 2: him and entire Tyler Smith. I'm talking about late late

754
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:05,960
Speaker 2: first rounders like that, but not not Mozzi. And we'll

755
00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:08,080
Speaker 2: see about Geiton. This year just hasn't been what we

756
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:10,920
Speaker 2: thought there. But yeah, I'm with you on the defensive

757
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 2: tackle position. It's gonna be hard to replace Osa there.

758
00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:16,440
Speaker 2: If he does leave in free agency, it's gonna be

759
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:19,279
Speaker 2: hard to resign him. I can guarantee that, but we'll

760
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:21,719
Speaker 2: see if that's one of their top priorities to do that.

761
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,319
Speaker 2: All right, let me go to another break here, last

762
00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:26,440

818
00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:05,400
Speaker 17: Yeah you know, yeah I mean, and then you came

819
00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:06,279

Speaker 17: Yeah, when you I'll try to that out.

822
00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:14,400
Speaker 2: No, that's when you added Jazz in there, which I

823
00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 2: appreciate and I know she does as well.

824
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:18,480
Speaker 4: Jazz Jazz.

825
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:21,160
Speaker 17: I know Josh is behind there sometimes yeah maybe today,

826
00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:22,080
Speaker 17: But when.

827
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:24,239
Speaker 2: You added her, that made me know that this was

828
00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:26,439
Speaker 2: you know, this wasn't something we've been working on since

829
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:28,719
Speaker 2: the fifth grade. I mean, you know, we've been new.

830
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:30,719
Speaker 2: This is pretty new, so I like it.

831
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:31,239
Speaker 4: I like it.

832
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:33,680
Speaker 7: It was slow and run, not fifth grade.

833
00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:35,560
Speaker 17: I right out a sixth grade level, so let's get

834
00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:35,959
Speaker 17: that clear.

835
00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:38,560
Speaker 2: Well, when you said jazz and then you said rob,

836
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:41,480
Speaker 2: I thought you might be rhyming another word with that.

837
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:43,319
Speaker 4: I was like, whoa, whoa, what are we doing here?

838
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:47,719
Speaker 2: But it's good ppg on here.

839
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:50,680
Speaker 17: Yeah, man, that's all I got. I try to keep

840
00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:52,080
Speaker 17: it light whenever I call in.

841
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:53,359
Speaker 4: I knew it too.

842
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:55,440
Speaker 2: When you called, I had this feeling it was going

843
00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 2: to be something kind of sarcastic and fun, a little snarky.

844
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:00,919
Speaker 4: Love it. Yeah, that's how.

845
00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:04,960
Speaker 17: Yeah, that's what you gotta do.

846
00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:06,960
Speaker 14: Yeah.

847
00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:10,840
Speaker 17: I mean, hey, we're finding the run game fourteen games

848
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:15,080
Speaker 17: too late. That's fun, isn't it. Shout out to Rico.

849
00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:18,279
Speaker 17: He's doing his thing. I think we should pair. I

850
00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:22,120
Speaker 17: heard this somewhere else, but it makes sense. He has

851
00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:26,040
Speaker 17: like a Diet Marrion Barber feel. Maybe this was on

852
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:29,000
Speaker 17: the show or somewhere else, but he just Yeah, he's

853
00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:32,399
Speaker 17: got a fun play about him, and I think he's

854
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:36,160
Speaker 17: coming into his own the more opportunities he gets, so yeah,

855
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:39,080
Speaker 17: pair another running back with him in the draft, and

856
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:41,200
Speaker 17: you know, we'll have fun next year with a running

857
00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:44,120
Speaker 17: game if we actually commit to running the ball. Whoever

858
00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:47,080
Speaker 17: is at the helm calling those plays, please run the ball.

859
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:47,800
Speaker 11: It works.

860
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:53,840
Speaker 17: But yeah, looking ahead to the Buccaneers. This guy played

861
00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:56,600
Speaker 17: for both teams. He's kind of in the public spotlight,

862
00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:59,319
Speaker 17: so I feel like we know his personality ish but

863
00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:02,759
Speaker 17: Keish s Johnson he uh, you know you covered him

864
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:07,320
Speaker 17: in his time here. Also thinking about Martine Grammatica, mm hmmm.

865
00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:10,440
Speaker 17: Uh so he was a little spitfire man. I liked

866
00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:13,279
Speaker 17: watching him. Yeah, obviously he you know, he's in a

867
00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:15,640
Speaker 17: highlight that most of us would like to forget with

868
00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:19,280
Speaker 17: the Seattle game. Oh you know, he didn't have anything

869
00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:20,839
Speaker 17: to do with that, but uh.

870
00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:23,600
Speaker 4: Welleah, he was. He was looking for a moment, he

871
00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:24,719
Speaker 4: kind of did, you know.

872
00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:28,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I'll tell you this, and I've learned the

873
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:32,280
Speaker 2: hard way, don't say anything to him about it. I didn't,

874
00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:34,919
Speaker 2: I didn't learn, but I Yeah, somebody asked me about

875
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:37,799
Speaker 2: Josh Ellis the other day and it's kind of weird,

876
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:41,480
Speaker 2: and so yeah, Josh Ellis and and Josh Ellis did

877
00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:44,960
Speaker 2: make a comment to to Martine Grammatica about throwing a

878
00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:47,759
Speaker 2: block or not throwing one, and uh, I didn't. I

879
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,359
Speaker 2: didn't turn out well at training camp. That was kind

880
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:53,960
Speaker 2: of a that was a tense moment. But yeah, this

881
00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:58,920
Speaker 2: one of the uh Cowboys Bucks players. Don't forget Alvin

882
00:43:58,960 --> 00:43:59,840
Speaker 2: Harper played a.

883
00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:01,680
Speaker 17: Little bit and Alvin Harper, Yeah that's your guy.

884
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:05,560
Speaker 2: Joey Galloway, you know Joey Joey Gallo, Dalway and Keisha

885
00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:10,319
Speaker 2: traded for each other. So yeah, all right, all right man,

886
00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:13,359
Speaker 2: thanks Zach for the Yeah, I think appreciate it. Let's

887
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:17,640
Speaker 2: go to Robbie and Coco beats. Robbie, what's up hey, Nick?

888
00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:19,880
Speaker 15: Well that that was a lot of lag there for

889
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,799
Speaker 15: a second. Yeah, how are you today, Buddy? Good good,

890
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:25,680
Speaker 15: Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy Holidays, Mery Christmas to a

891
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:28,440
Speaker 15: jazz and beamer even though he's probably not there, but.

892
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:33,720
Speaker 4: Good market ken, go ahead, Robbie.

893
00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:35,080
Speaker 10: All right.

894
00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:37,640
Speaker 15: First, I want to give a shout out to Israel mcconmwell.

895
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:38,920
Speaker 4: I think I said his name right.

896
00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 15: Yeah, that guy has been like Byron Jones was we

897
00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:48,440
Speaker 15: were talking about him earlier. Safety cornerback, safety cornerback, Nicol

898
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:53,400
Speaker 15: I think you could see his uh, his understanding of

899
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:55,719
Speaker 15: the defense finally coming together this year, and I'd like

900
00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:59,000
Speaker 15: to see it. And maybe he just needed a couple

901
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:00,560
Speaker 15: of years because he came from a smaller school.

902
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:00,920
Speaker 14: I don't know.

903
00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:06,360
Speaker 15: I'm really impressed with him, and he deserves his flowers. Demasi.

904
00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:09,960
Speaker 15: You know what I'm gonna say. Last year was kind

905
00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:12,840
Speaker 15: of a wash for him. Love dan Quinn loved everything

906
00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:15,839
Speaker 15: he did on defense, but it was kind of well

907
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:20,839
Speaker 15: known that he wanted faster defensive tackles, smaller, faster yep.

908
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:27,200
Speaker 15: And having Mazie in there now, finally getting under Zim's coaching,

909
00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:29,600
Speaker 15: maybe I see good things from next year. Put on

910
00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:31,920
Speaker 15: another five or eight pounds and maybe we'll seek at

911
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:37,239
Speaker 15: him up there. And ta Rico. Man, he has really

912
00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:40,399
Speaker 15: turned it on this year, and I thought he would

913
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:42,400
Speaker 15: have been a I think I think you and I

914
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:45,160
Speaker 15: talked about it before, he'd be a solid number two back.

915
00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:47,879
Speaker 15: But I think he's really taking a step man. I'm

916
00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:50,239
Speaker 15: really impressed. Other than that, I'll let you talk about

917
00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:51,320
Speaker 15: any of those things you want to.

918
00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:53,759
Speaker 14: And Mary Christmas, thank you.

919
00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:55,560
Speaker 4: Again.

920
00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:59,439
Speaker 2: You know, when when you're talking about players, players weight,

921
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:03,200
Speaker 2: what their role is going to be in certain schemes.

922
00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:06,800
Speaker 2: You know that that does come down to what the

923
00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:10,800
Speaker 2: staff looks like and what they're asking for certain players.

924
00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:14,359
Speaker 2: You know, Mazzie's weight's kind of gone up and down,

925
00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:17,840
Speaker 2: and you know, not always in a good way. So

926
00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:20,600
Speaker 2: you know, it's been a little bit of a of

927
00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 2: a storyline h there. So I think he's playing at

928
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:27,520
Speaker 2: a at a at a good weight right now. He's

929
00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:30,400
Speaker 2: still strong enough, you know. You see, I thought he

930
00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:32,600
Speaker 2: had a really big play in the game the other

931
00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:38,640
Speaker 2: day on second down because and now they're running back

932
00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 2: escapes me Hubbard. He looked like he was going for

933
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:44,160
Speaker 2: a first down. He had a lot of momentum hitting

934
00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:45,680
Speaker 2: that line, and all of a sudden, he just hits

935
00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:51,000
Speaker 2: a wall called Mazzi, who throws him around. Uh down

936
00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:53,880
Speaker 2: immediately Now it's third down, third and three, third and

937
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:56,399
Speaker 2: four looked like it was going to be a first down,

938
00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:58,359
Speaker 2: but he made this stop and then on third down

939
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:01,120
Speaker 2: they had to throw it. That was the tip interception

940
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:03,960
Speaker 2: up in the air. So really good play by Mazzy.

941
00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:06,080
Speaker 2: It made one of my uh don't forget these five

942
00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:09,279
Speaker 2: plays because it was one that easily forgotten. But but

943
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:11,480
Speaker 2: it set up a third and third down situation and

944
00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:13,279
Speaker 2: the Cowboys ended up getting a turnover. So I thought

945
00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:15,880
Speaker 2: that was a really big play there. And as for Rico,

946
00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:19,920
Speaker 2: looking back here, I think Rico is gonna if he

947
00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:21,840
Speaker 2: if he can get there, I think he's gonna be

948
00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:25,799
Speaker 2: the first player in Cowboys history, first undrafted player four

949
00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:28,800
Speaker 2: thousand yard rushing season. I'm looking through the stats. I

950
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:31,160
Speaker 2: don't I don't see that another another one doing that,

951
00:47:31,239 --> 00:47:33,920
Speaker 2: So that that's impressive. If he can get there, he

952
00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:36,040
Speaker 2: needs one hundred and twenty yards in the next three games.

953
00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:38,239
Speaker 2: He should be able to the you know, based off

954
00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:41,560
Speaker 2: of what we've seen. I mean, that's he should. He

955
00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:44,480
Speaker 2: should probably get eleven hundred at this rate. All right,

956
00:47:44,520 --> 00:47:46,160
Speaker 2: let's go to a last caller. We aready to get

957
00:47:46,160 --> 00:47:48,600
Speaker 2: one more in Jeremy from d C. Jeremy, what's up?

958
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:51,640
Speaker 4: Good? How are you?

959
00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:53,319
Speaker 1: I'm doing all right?

960
00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:53,520
Speaker 6: Man?

961
00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:54,680
Speaker 1: You didn't hurt nobody today?

962
00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:57,360
Speaker 4: Eight No, No, day isn't over yet. But yeah, no,

963
00:47:57,600 --> 00:47:58,080
Speaker 4: I haven't.

964
00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:01,560
Speaker 2: And I appreciate that I probably hurt the people's feelings

965
00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:03,680
Speaker 2: because yeah, I might have done that hurts the people's

966
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:06,799
Speaker 2: feelings because I, I, you know, basically missed a meeting.

967
00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:08,719
Speaker 1: Hey, it comes with the job.

968
00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:10,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, it happens. What's up man?

969
00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:11,960
Speaker 14: All right?

970
00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:13,600
Speaker 9: So quick question is.

971
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:18,319
Speaker 1: That if we can't resigned Chauncey Ghosten, that you think

972
00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:21,120
Speaker 1: we should go after call Lawson because he's been showing

973
00:48:21,239 --> 00:48:25,839
Speaker 1: up right seriously these last couple of weeks. And then

974
00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:28,080
Speaker 1: I wanted to throw and I wanted to throw two

975
00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:30,680
Speaker 1: numbers that you since I missed last time. My first

976
00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:32,560
Speaker 1: number is Emm Smith twenty two.

977
00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:33,880
Speaker 9: Okay, you know who that is?

978
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:34,399
Speaker 4: Yeah, Victor.

979
00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:39,120
Speaker 1: I believe that win number was fifty nine, correct, yep,

980
00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:42,920
Speaker 1: and number fifty nine. Then I'm gonna leave you with that,

981
00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:43,480
Speaker 1: Nick and.

982
00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:45,680
Speaker 4: Not something you to my buddy, all right, have a

983
00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:47,040
Speaker 4: good one twenty two.

984
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:50,160
Speaker 2: If it's not Bob Hayes' not Emmitt Smith, I mean

985
00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:51,640
Speaker 2: there's not There's not a lot there.

986
00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:52,440
Speaker 6: Uh.

987
00:48:52,680 --> 00:48:55,840
Speaker 2: There was a defensive back named Victor Scott that I remember.

988
00:48:55,920 --> 00:48:59,239
Speaker 2: He had a interception for a touchdown in the game

989
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:03,439
Speaker 2: against Washington. They had five interceptions I believe on Joe

990
00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:06,400
Speaker 2: Thaisman and it was his birthday. They sang a happy birthday.

991
00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:08,440
Speaker 2: Victor Scott had a pick six in there, and he

992
00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:13,920
Speaker 2: wore twenty two and then fifty nine. I don't know

993
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:16,360
Speaker 2: why Derek Brownlow is the first name that just popped

994
00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:20,759
Speaker 2: up for me. He was Derek Brownlow fifty nine. He

995
00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:22,600
Speaker 2: didn't even wear yeah he did, he wore that number.

996
00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:28,440
Speaker 2: But Anthony Hitchins would be another one there, really good,

997
00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:29,280
Speaker 2: good player.

998
00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:29,560
Speaker 14: You know.

999
00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:32,920
Speaker 2: Anthony Hitchins reminds me of sort of what we were

1000
00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:36,600
Speaker 2: talking about before about let's see who the coaching staff is,

1001
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:39,360
Speaker 2: because Anthony Agens is one of my favorite examples of

1002
00:49:39,640 --> 00:49:41,880
Speaker 2: I remember a lot of people complaining they could have

1003
00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:44,520
Speaker 2: got him in the sixth round, seventh round, why they

1004
00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:46,840
Speaker 2: jumped and got him in the fourth round. Well, you know,

1005
00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:49,319
Speaker 2: Rod Marinelli had a vision for that type of player

1006
00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:51,200
Speaker 2: that he wanted in his in his defense, and he

1007
00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:52,680
Speaker 2: had a vision that he could come in and play

1008
00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:53,080
Speaker 2: right away.

1009
00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:53,759
Speaker 4: Well he did.

1010
00:49:53,800 --> 00:49:55,319
Speaker 2: He had I think he had one hundred tackles as

1011
00:49:55,320 --> 00:49:58,839
Speaker 2: a rookie. So sometimes you really do have to rely

1012
00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:02,919
Speaker 2: on the coaches. And that's that's a situation that I think,

1013
00:50:03,920 --> 00:50:06,280
Speaker 2: you know, let's see what happens with coaches and scouts.

1014
00:50:06,440 --> 00:50:09,600
Speaker 2: Let's see that that that type of players that they'll

1015
00:50:09,640 --> 00:50:12,680
Speaker 2: be looking to get. So all right, guys, it was

1016
