We got some breaking news 31 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 4: going on here, and Quinn, defensive coordinator, is taking a 32 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 4: job with the Washington Commanders. Are your thoughts on that one? 33 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 6: Well, you know, you k know you're gonna lose Dan 34 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 6: at some point, you knew that was gonna happen. He 35 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,960 Speaker 6: probably probably should have lost him last year. And look, 36 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 6: I think there's a lot of those who are are 37 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 6: still burning hot from the last game of the season. 38 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 6: They're saying, well, he didn't do you know, the defense 39 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 6: didn't play up to the par How could he get 40 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 6: a new job or blah blah blah. Look the guy 41 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 6: is his track record over the last couple of years 42 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 6: has been remarkable, and I thought it was one of 43 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 6: the best stage last year as far as keeping people, 44 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 6: even players within the organization. I thought that was one 45 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 6: of the best keepers last year and finding a way 46 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 6: to keep Dan Quinn on staff. I'm happy for him. 47 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 6: I think he's long overdue for a head coaching job. 48 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 6: I don't like the fact that he's in the division. 49 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 6: But at the same time, look his track record of 50 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 6: what he's been able to accomplish, whether it be in 51 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 6: Seattle with the you know what they call the Legion 52 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 6: of Doom, and then moving on to Atlanta and going 53 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 6: to the Super Bowl with that team, and then coming 54 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,360 Speaker 6: to Dallas and changing things around. Look, I just got 55 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 6: a ton of respect for dan Quainne, even though you 56 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 6: know what they went through the season. You know, even 57 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 6: with going through the season, they had a great season. 58 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 6: He put guys in the right. 59 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 5: Position to win games. Just so happened. It didn't happen 60 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:40,360 Speaker 5: for him. And in the end. 61 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm sure I'll get a chance later on in 62 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,079 Speaker 4: the show to I'll be asked about it. I'll throw 63 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 4: my two cents in later in the show. But yeah, 64 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 4: I mean I agree with with everything that you said. 65 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 4: All right, let's just get to the phone line.

Well I'm a little sick today, 70 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 8: which is why I'm home from work. But I am 71 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,639 Speaker 8: really glad because I've never been able to call in 72 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 8: and on a day when Woody's there nice, So it 73 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 8: is a pleasure to talk to you, sir. 74 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 5: Yeah you too. 75 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 4: B Well, Brian always asks me like a former player 76 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,799 Speaker 4: and give a story or whatever. So I'm hoping maybe 77 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 4: you'll ask Darren, a player that you he'll have some great, 78 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:26,959 Speaker 4: great stories on any of these guys. 79 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 9: Yeah. Absolutely, So I got two questions, and then of 80 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 9: course I'll hang up and listen so other people can participate. 81 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 9: My first question is, if you're one of the guys 82 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 9: that looks into this stuff and follows this stuff, do 83 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 9: you have an opinion on any of the safeties coming 84 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 9: out this year? And my other question is something close 85 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 9: to what Nick just said, but maybe a favorite mentor 86 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 9: as you were coming up and through the ranks. I'll 87 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 9: hang up and listen, and y'all have a great show. 88 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 6: To answer your first quest, I should I have no idea. 89 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 6: I remember my ESPN days of having to watch you know, 90 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 6: the entire football season and then watch you know, the 91 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 6: college draft and and get prep for who's coming out. 92 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 5: I'm not That's not my deal anyet. I'm clueless. I'm clueless. 93 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 4: I mean, there's another show that just they did They. 94 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 5: Just left out the draft show call mel Kiper. 95 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, the one the all over it. I'm not there 96 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 4: yet either, And I don't even know if that would 97 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 4: be your top priority thinking about because they signed MALIEK. 98 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 4: Cooker and they signed Donovan Wilson. So I don't think 99 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,279 Speaker 4: they're going to be looking at safeties that high in 100 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:38,479 Speaker 4: the draft that they never really do it. 101 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 5: They never do anyway, right, So that's not happening. 102 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 6: But there's some free agent pickups maybe that that that 103 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,919 Speaker 6: are out there that they may want to take a 104 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:49,840 Speaker 6: look at. As for your second question, as far as mentors, look, 105 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 6: I had so many guys that that mentored me through 106 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 6: the process. That Tony Tolbert was a guy, uh when 107 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,600 Speaker 6: I came into the league somehow, some way, even him 108 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:00,919 Speaker 6: being a defensive end, really took me under arm and 109 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 6: you know, taught me how to be a professional. Jim 110 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 6: Jeffcote another one that took me under his wing. James Washington, 111 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 6: Thomas Everett, Ray Horton. I mean, these guys came in 112 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 6: and these were safeties and they knew I came in 113 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 6: to take their position, and they still just poured into me, 114 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 6: gave me a ton of knowledge, gave me an understanding 115 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 6: of how to play zone and you know, I was 116 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 6: pretty good doing man, but the zone concepts were you know, 117 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,720 Speaker 6: I was oblivious to understanding what was going on there, 118 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:34,160 Speaker 6: and they just spent so much time into teaching me 119 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 6: the nuances of the game. 120 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,840 Speaker 5: So uh, those are those are? You know? And there 121 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 5: were so many others. 122 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 6: I mean, Roger Starbaucht as you know, as much as 123 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 6: I was doing on the football field, off the fields, 124 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 6: Roger was instrumental really and pouring. I mean, is the 125 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 6: reason why I'm in commercial real estate today is because 126 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 6: of who Roger was and how he came back around 127 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 6: and really poured into me and told me, hey, this 128 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 6: is a you know, short lived business you ain't gonna 129 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,919 Speaker 6: be here for and what you're playing. So I just 130 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 6: had so many people that that that that mentored me 131 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 6: through the process. 132 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,359 Speaker 4: I remember you telling me a story and not to 133 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 4: get you know, too personal with it, but there was 134 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 4: something that had happened that that Troy Aikman even read about. 135 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, yes, yeah. 136 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 4: You involved with something I don't know. 137 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 5: Yeah. I went through. I went through. 138 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 6: You know, it wasn't that damaging, but I went through. 139 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 6: My financial advisor had came up in the pay in 140 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 6: the newspaper that had taken the bank and he had 141 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 6: actually taken the found out that he had actually taken advantage. 142 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 5: Of me in a small way. 143 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 6: But at the same time it became news and Troy 144 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 6: I remember, really, you know, just walking up to me 145 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 6: when when the story broke, was in the locker room, 146 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 6: walked up to me and said, hey, man, I got 147 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 6: the right financial group for you. 148 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 5: Same group i'm with today. 149 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 6: Really, this isn't ninety three, ninety ninety three, my first 150 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 6: year or two in the league, and I'm still with 151 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 6: the same group. But Troy is another one that just 152 00:06:58,080 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 6: I mean, there's so many guys that were older than me, 153 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 6: and I think that's what was so special about those. 154 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 5: Teams back then. 155 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 6: It was a ton of personalities guys had, you know, 156 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 6: had their own goals and dreams.

You know, pop warning, you're not 187 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 10: really getting that many picks. But I ended up staying 188 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 10: with it. I ended up being Free Safety all through 189 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 10: j V High school and then I decided to call 190 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 10: it quit. 191 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, large largely for a reason because there was someone 192 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 3: always always over me through Pop Warner and through high school. 193 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 3: His name is Eric Little, and we'll see why he 194 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:49,079 Speaker 3: got the starting position over me. But but but. 195 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 10: Yeah, thank you because at a young age, I wanted 196 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:55,319 Speaker 10: to be, you know, the superstar. And yeah, you made 197 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,559 Speaker 10: it cool for you made it okay for me to try. 198 00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 3: To get better at safety. 199 00:08:58,440 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 9: So I appreciate that. 200 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 10: Yeah, I hope, I hope you. I hope you make 201 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:03,079 Speaker 10: it this year. 202 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 5: I appreciate that long overdo thank you. 203 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,199 Speaker 10: But uh yeah, last time I called it was the 204 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 10: Green Bay game and I think I said, you know, 205 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 10: firing Mark Mike McCarthy was going to be to be crazy. 206 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 10: I still think that. I like the decision they made, 207 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,599 Speaker 10: and I'm happy with the decision that, you know, you know, 208 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 10: dan Quinn decided to take another job. I just think 209 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 10: I'm looking back and I'm thinking, when was the last 210 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 10: time we had a good run defense. It was even 211 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 10: before dan Quinn. We've had this issue, and I'm glad 212 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 10: we're not sticking with it. I'm glad we're going to 213 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 10: go in a different direction. As good as he was, 214 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 10: we need to we need to fix this run defense somehow. 215 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 10: I don't know if it is just coaching or if 216 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 10: it's this front line and we need guys that just 217 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 10: want to get it. So I just want to call 218 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 10: in about that because I think a lot of people 219 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 10: are are are like, oh, no, it's going to happen 220 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 10: to this defense. I think it's actually a good thing. 221 00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 4: So all right, well thanks for the called justin. I 222 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 4: kind of agree. Last year I wouldn't have thought this, 223 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 4: but this year they need to do something different and 224 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 4: I think that a different type of defense. And nothing 225 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 4: against Dan Quinn, but I think that if you're going 226 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 4: to make a splash, you gotta do it somehow. 227 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 6: And yeah, but are you built, you know, currently, are 228 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 6: you built personnel wise to make that change? Like that's 229 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 6: that's the question. Because this team, we all know this 230 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 6: team can rush the passing across the board, right, But 231 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 6: it's a difference when you got to get those hogs 232 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,080 Speaker 6: up in the middle there that you know, pin their 233 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 6: ears back. 234 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 5: And and and stop the run. 235 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 6: And that's their main focus now they try to do 236 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 6: that by Mazi last year that that hasn't worked out 237 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:45,440 Speaker 6: to where we expected to be. But that's a fundamental difference. 238 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 6: That's a you know that is a mentality that you 239 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 6: have to have. And it's not just your front four 240 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 6: or your your interior lineman. It goes to the middle 241 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 6: of your defense, your linebackers. What kind of players are they? 242 00:10:58,600 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 6: Who's on the who right now? 243 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 5: On on within the personnel or this football team. 244 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 6: Is that guy that's gonna knock your teeth out? Who's 245 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 6: that guy that's gonna plug that hole not get pushed 246 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 6: back by the by the offensive guard or by the center. 247 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 5: They don't. That's not their makeup. So it's easy to say, yeah, we're. 248 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 6: Gonna change this, and we're gonna do that, and we're 249 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,079 Speaker 6: gonna bring a new coach in. With the new coach 250 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 6: is gonna say, well, hey, this is who I have 251 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 6: to These are the pieces that I'm gonna have to 252 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 6: deal with. Right, So that's a fundamental change. That's okay. 253 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,200 Speaker 6: Now we have to in the draft. We have to 254 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 6: start drafting guys that are built this way. Now we 255 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 6: have to go out in free agency it start bringing 256 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 6: guys in that can fit the mole to stop to run. 257 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 6: I just don't think that's their mentality and hasn't been 258 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 6: their mentality personnel wise, it's rushed the passer get you 259 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 6: in third and long pen years back and go. And 260 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:48,679 Speaker 6: you know, when you get in the playoffs and you 261 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 6: play against a team that's like the Packers or or 262 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 6: the San Francisco forty nine ers or who want to 263 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 6: play bully. 264 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 5: Ball, it's not third long and one. 265 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, second in three like it's that's a tough deal 266 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 6: there to have. 267 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, I definitely agree with that, and I think they 268 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 4: need to get They just need to get bigger their 269 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 4: line back to get. 270 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 5: And also you know, just to go along with that. 271 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 6: I remember when I first came to the league, Jimmy 272 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,319 Speaker 6: Johnson made onus of every day when we went out 273 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 6: to practice and we put on the pass because we 274 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 6: were in pass all the time. 275 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 5: Got to control the front, got to control the front. 276 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 5: You gotta win in the trenches. It's all I used 277 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 5: to remember. 278 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 6: And it was this is a time in the NFC 279 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 6: East where you had the the New York Giants that 280 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:30,559 Speaker 6: were fully loaded. 281 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean top to bottom. 282 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 6: Eagles were loaded, the Redskins back then loaded as what, 283 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 6: and everyone ran the football. So we had our focus 284 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 6: was control the line of scrimmens. Leon Less, the Tony 285 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 6: casiis is the Jimmy Jones, the the who else? 286 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 5: The Russell? Absolutely, Russell Maryland was the number one pick. 287 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 6: Ye, Like you talk about a fundamental change, you want 288 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 6: to stop the run. You picked guys early on to 289 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 6: do just that. So that's that was the mindset. 290 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,559 Speaker 4: You know, the next defensive tackle they took in the 291 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 4: first round. No, Mazie Smith. That's how long it's been. Seriously, 292 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 4: it's all Marcus Spears. 293 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 5: What year?

But also I 325 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 6: mean if you had knee caps and thighs. 326 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 5: Do he was taking them off. 327 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 6: I mean he came in like a bowling ball to 328 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 6: hit guys and me out of nowhere.

Dude. 336 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 5: He was just a damn good football player. 337 00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 6: I mean I had a buddy of mine, Mark Labor, 338 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 6: to say that he's a football playing Jesse, Like you know, 339 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 6: certain guys can just play that game at any point, 340 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 6: and he was one of those guys. 341 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 5: Roy Roy was Roy, and I man, Roy was before. 342 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 4: You get in. I just want to say the first 343 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 4: caller that said about favorite mentors and all that, those guys, 344 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 4: what those guys did for you, what you did, it's 345 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 4: my job. 346 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 5: That was my job. 347 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 4: Circle. 348 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, And I played with really good safety. 349 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 6: We mentioned James Washington, Thomas Severett, right, and he got 350 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 6: t came in. No, brock Marion. Look, let me tell 351 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 6: you what. I'll tell you one thing about Brock Marrion. 352 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 6: Brock Marion was you know, I was tasked to always 353 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 6: cover the slot receiver or the best tied end hands 354 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 6: down as a safety. Right, So third down, come on, 355 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 6: if we if we were playing Tony Gonzalez, Hey, that's 356 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 6: your guy. You got him, Shannon Sharp, you got him. 357 00:15:56,400 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 6: Whoever the slot guy is. If it's Steve Smith, Jerry right, Hey, 358 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 6: that's that's my deal, right, And I can't tell you 359 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 6: when we played man the man Brock. Brock could absolutely cover. 360 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 6: He wasn't just the middle of the field guy. He 361 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 6: could He could line up and play cornerback. I mean, 362 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 6: he was that talented. And we didn't have guys like that. 363 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 6: It was just me and then I never really played 364 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 6: with a safety that could do those things. Brock could 365 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 6: do those things, and it made things so much easier. 366 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 6: So if Jerry Rice motioned over, I just let him 367 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 6: motion over to Brock and I went to the middle 368 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 6: of the field, which was which I appreciated. Roy was different. 369 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 6: Roy was probably the biggest hitter I've ever been around. 370 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 6: I don't know if I've ever seen anyone hit and 371 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 6: with the power and the force like Roy Williams. And 372 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 6: I always felt like I was a big hitter until 373 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 6: he showed up, and I was like, he's knocking people 374 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 6: out of their socks, even at practice, Like he had 375 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 6: to tell him to calm down at practice and chill out. 376 00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 6: But he was that type of forces and he had 377 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:04,440 Speaker 6: intimidated the running backs and guys tight ends or wide 378 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:06,400 Speaker 6: receiver was running across the middle. He because he sat 379 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 6: in the middle of the field, most not deep but 380 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,440 Speaker 6: shallow would cross the routes and he man, he would 381 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:15,200 Speaker 6: declete you when he played. But he was he was 382 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:17,239 Speaker 6: a tremendous football player. He was great to play with. 383 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,159 Speaker 6: At the same time, Uh, he was a sponge man. 384 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 6: He just wanted to listen and learn, uh through the 385 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 6: whole time, and and uh, you know, I wish. Look, 386 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 6: I think one of the things about Roy that was 387 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,400 Speaker 6: one of my regrets was that when I went down 388 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 6: and I got hurt, I think it took something away 389 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 6: from from his progress because I saw him progressing in 390 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:41,879 Speaker 6: a tremendous fashion as far as you know, being a 391 00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 6: top flight safety, and I think he was on the 392 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:45,679 Speaker 6: customer really going to the next level. 393 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 5: But when I went down, they tasked him to do. 394 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,880 Speaker 6: A lot more other things, and it was just a lot. 395 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 6: It was he had to carry a huge load and 396 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,879 Speaker 6: a huge burden, and you know that was you know 397 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,439 Speaker 6: that sucked because you know, he was my boy man, 398 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,199 Speaker 6: he was my baby, right and I was raising him 399 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:02,680 Speaker 6: up that way. 400 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:04,480 Speaker 5: So I'll still get a little emotional. 401 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 6: About him because he would he was and is still 402 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,679 Speaker 6: that special of a person and a player. 403 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 4: We got to do a documentary on him a few 404 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 4: years ago. It's one of my favorite ones that we've 405 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 4: done just because of how accessible he was. And he 406 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 4: I remember him just saying, you guys, do it whatever 407 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,119 Speaker 4: however you want to do, you know, and uh him 408 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,880 Speaker 4: and I actually we went sideways a couple of times 409 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,360 Speaker 4: while he was a player here. But to be able 410 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 4: to do that full circle and that was it was awesome. 411 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,399 Speaker 6: He would give you anything. Yeah, he'd give you his 412 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:37,440 Speaker 6: shirt off his back. I don't care who you were, 413 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 6: if you showed up and you and you were in need. Man, 414 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,399 Speaker 6: the biggest, biggest heart to the point likes to tell 415 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 6: him as his mentor, hey man, stop yeah, stop giving everything. 416 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 5: He's good. 417 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 4: He'd be giving away a lot of money played in 418 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 4: today's game.

And I was gonna 443 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 7: see what you had to say about that. 444 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:03,639 Speaker 11: Uh. 445 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 5: Look, I'm I'm a firm believer. 446 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,920 Speaker 6: You don't lose a game on Sundays. I just don't 447 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,880 Speaker 6: believe that. I don't believe that you show up and 448 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:13,880 Speaker 6: it's too bright. 449 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 5: It's too bright for you. These guys have been playing 450 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 5: all their lives like. 451 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 6: This is nothing new to to Michael Parsons and the 452 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,959 Speaker 6: CD Lambs. They've been playing at the highest of highest 453 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:29,679 Speaker 6: levels all their life and the other team, you know, 454 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 6: it's the same way. The other team isn't playing at 455 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 6: this level as well, So it's not the nerves is not. 456 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:36,359 Speaker 6: I don't believe in the fact. Yeah, you can be 457 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 6: able nervous that you get over it after the first 458 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 6: hit and you move on. Here's the deal. You are 459 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,120 Speaker 6: who you are. We've heard this so many times from 460 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:46,439 Speaker 6: coaches like Bill Parcells. Right, So when you're in training 461 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 6: camp and you when you're playing a certain way, and 462 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:52,119 Speaker 6: you're going through the preseason and you're and you you know, 463 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 6: you're deal doing your thing. And then you get into 464 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:58,440 Speaker 6: the regular season and it's week six, the week ten 465 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 6: and you're doing the exact same thing, and you're leading 466 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 6: the league in penalties. That is not going to change 467 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,879 Speaker 6: all of a sudden. It's not like you pull you 468 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 6: turn on the light switch and go, oh okay, now 469 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 6: we're different. 470 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 5: Now. No, that's who you are. That is who you are. 471 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 6: And when you played all season long and you haven't 472 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:19,440 Speaker 6: stopped a run against the Buffalo bit or the Arizona 473 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 6: Cardinals first of all, the Buffalo Bills us the Niners. 474 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 6: You when you haven't stopped the run, that's who you are. 475 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:29,920 Speaker 6: And it's only a matter of time until you get 476 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:31,920 Speaker 6: into the playoffs. He played another good team like the 477 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 6: Green Bay Packers, and Jones runs the ball down your throat. 478 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 5: That's it is what it is. 479 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 6: So I just hate the you know, hear this whole Well, 480 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 6: you can change at any time, and you can do this. 481 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:45,399 Speaker 5: You can turn you can't turn that light switch on 482 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:46,679 Speaker 5: and it. 483 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:50,119 Speaker 7: Starts to ry on. I did like yesterday, I finally 484 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 7: when I finally heard that Micah spoke yesterday, and I 485 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 7: was glad to hear that. Finally he come out and 486 00:21:56,840 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 7: you say, look, that was embarrassing and unacceptable. And I've 487 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:03,119 Speaker 7: been waiting to hear a player say that because it was, 488 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 7: and so hopefully that maybe they're getting to that mental 489 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:11,680 Speaker 7: part and maybe knowing that they have to you know, 490 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 7: they have to be ready to play off the time. 491 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 6: So hey, Jeff, this starts down though, like that that 492 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 6: all starts like this off season.

I hope that 719 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 12: you're still getting a lot of calls. I'm here to 720 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 12: the wheels fall off man. 721 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 4: All right, all right, Yeah, we're doing good. We're doing 722 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 4: pretty good with the with the time change and a 723 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 4: lot of the same same callers. We got a few 724 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 4: first timers, but you know, they they they follow us, 725 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 4: so which is great. 726 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 5: Yeah. 727 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 12: The one thing that I will say is, you know, 728 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:22,920 Speaker 12: I'm a bit bummed to see Dan Quinn go to 729 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 12: somewhere in the division. But I do think the change 730 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 12: will be good. I really hope that this team can 731 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 12: can just improve on its penalties next season. I think 732 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 12: that that's you know, we talked about the run defense 733 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 12: a lot, but I think that there's been penalties that 734 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 12: put them behind the change and that's something that starts 735 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 12: with the head coach in my eyes, and Mike's gotta 736 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:41,360 Speaker 12: do better at. 737 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I agree, I agree. I mean the players 738 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 4: have to you know, it's it's on the players too, 739 00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 4: but but yeah, I mean it all funnels up to 740 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 4: the head coach as well, and uh and and and 741 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:57,480 Speaker 4: the GM and owner. I mean that's because the players 742 00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 4: that you put out there, you know, some some of 743 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 4: the guys are repeat offenders here and like so you know, 744 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 4: at some point, are they worth it? You have to 745 00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:08,680 Speaker 4: figure that out. Are they worth it? Are they good 746 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:12,280 Speaker 4: enough when they're actually making plays to offset all of 747 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 4: the penalties, and if they're not, move on. Kelvin Joseph 748 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 4: was another guy like that. I mean, just playing on 749 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 4: special teams, causing getting a lot of penalties. They had 750 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 4: to get rid of them, you know, and so and 751 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 4: there may be others on the team. I like that 752 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 4: as well. 753 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 12: Yeah, I like having Sam Williams around. But I mean 754 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 12: the impact, right is what you're saying, and I mean 755 00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 12: his impact is a way for the penalties ye are 756 00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 12: worth better. 757 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, after the call, I'll have a point about Sam 758 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 4: Williams as well. Do you have anything else, Josh? 759 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:41,400 Speaker 11: Yes. 760 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 12: I actually was gonna ask Woody, but something gets too. 761 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:45,760 Speaker 12: I was gonna ask him if he has any Nate 762 00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 12: new stories. I don't know if you might have any. 763 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 4: Uh well, but I well, my stories aren't the same 764 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 4: as Nate. Yeah, I got plenty of Nate stories. But 765 00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 4: I should wait till he comes back. I'll get him 766 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:57,480 Speaker 4: on here again. 767 00:33:58,440 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, Nate. 768 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,680 Speaker 4: It was like I had some Nate stories before I 769 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:02,680 Speaker 4: even started working here. 770 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:03,000 Speaker 5: You know. 771 00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 4: He uh uh, he's still He pushed me on the 772 00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 4: sidelines my very first year. I wasn't worth the Cowboys yet, 773 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 4: h my very first year, but I was. I was 774 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,839 Speaker 4: in the media and I was probably weighing like one 775 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:17,200 Speaker 4: hundred and fifty pounds seriously, and Nate, just Nate was 776 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,520 Speaker 4: a pulling guard on a goal line play and just 777 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:22,560 Speaker 4: ran and I was nowhere near him. He was about 778 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:25,879 Speaker 4: you know, two yards this way, but he went right 779 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,480 Speaker 4: next to me and just decided to just shove me 780 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:30,440 Speaker 4: for no reason. I think he just said, if I'm 781 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 4: gonna run thirty forty yards, I don't hit someone. And 782 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:35,400 Speaker 4: he just you know, and him just shoving me. I 783 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:38,080 Speaker 4: mean almost fell down, you know. I I'll never forget that. 784 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 5: I don't know why. 785 00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:40,920 Speaker 4: I don't know why Nate had to do that. But yeah, 786 00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 4: so anyways, uh, we we've we've definitely h had some 787 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,480 Speaker 4: great stories backward, but not not as like what you 788 00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:51,680 Speaker 4: know would he had of course, different different stories there 789 00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 4: with him. So anyways, thanks, thanks, yeah, thanks for the call, Josh, 790 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:58,319 Speaker 4: appreciate that. All right, let's go. I was gonna say 791 00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 4: something about Sam Williams where you know a lot of 792 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 4: people kind of have that opinion like, hey, if he's 793 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,839 Speaker 4: just gonna play special teams and he's gonna have penalties, 794 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:11,239 Speaker 4: is it worth it? And and and that's fair. The 795 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 4: part that that could be something to watch now is 796 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:17,919 Speaker 4: look at the free agents that are out there now. 797 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,759 Speaker 4: On your unrestricted free agents, You've got Doran Armstrong you've 798 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:24,880 Speaker 4: got Dante Fowler. Faller's one guy that did play for 799 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:29,479 Speaker 4: him for dan Quinn in Atlanta and in Dallas. Dorrin 800 00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:32,799 Speaker 4: Armstrong's best, best career, best years of his career have 801 00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 4: been here with dan Quinn. So could be situations where 802 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:39,239 Speaker 4: these guys maybe maybe they leave, maybe the Cowboys can't 803 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:42,439 Speaker 4: re sign them both or any of them. And that's 804 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 4: where you've got a third year player in Sam Williams 805 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 4: that you know, maybe it's time for him to to 806 00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:49,520 Speaker 4: you know, the light bulb to come on and to 807 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:53,400 Speaker 4: turn the corner and play a lot more so, you know, 808 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:55,800 Speaker 4: and that's that's the cycle of how things are supposed 809 00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:57,520 Speaker 4: to go. You draft the guy in the second round. 810 00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 4: By his third year, you need to be starting. And 811 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 4: so I think that, you know, they may give him 812 00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 4: that opportunity to do that, but it's it's hold your 813 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:07,839 Speaker 4: breath with him because you know, like we've seen, there 814 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 4: have been certainly been some some penalties issues with him. 815 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:15,120 Speaker 4: All right, let's go to Sebastian and Savannah.

You're having a good Some of the rides 828 00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:42,840 Speaker 15: are good, some of the rides are bad, some of 829 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:44,759 Speaker 15: the rides are terrible. But then you get to that 830 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 15: big ride and you're like, yes, I've been waiting all 831 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:48,319 Speaker 15: day long. I've been in line for over an hour. 832 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 15: And you get on that ride and the people coming 833 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:52,960 Speaker 15: off the ride before you're crying and throwing up, and 834 00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 15: you're like, ah, they're socked. I'll be great. Then you 835 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:57,960 Speaker 15: get on there and it's a great ride, and it 836 00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,879 Speaker 15: starts and you get to the first loop and someone 837 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 15: skills their coffee on machine and you get stuck in 838 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:06,239 Speaker 15: that loop for two and a half hours and you're miserable. 839 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 15: And people are crying and throwing up and they're upset, 840 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 15: and your head is banging because you're upside down. And 841 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 15: then they finally fixed the machine right and you start 842 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:16,279 Speaker 15: to finish the rest of the ride, but at that 843 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 15: point you're so tired and just exasperated. You just want 844 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:20,720 Speaker 15: to go home. And that was the end of the season. 845 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:23,600 Speaker 15: And it's unfortunate and it sucks because it sounds like 846 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 15: we're losing dan Quinn and stuff like that. And I 847 00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:28,239 Speaker 15: really had a question for what mister Woodson as well. 848 00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:31,080 Speaker 15: But that was basically the season. We had all these 849 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:34,800 Speaker 15: great rides, Jimmy Johnson getting into the Ringham Honor finally, 850 00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:36,799 Speaker 15: and then you get to the final ride that you've 851 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 15: been waiting on the entire time, and it's stumped, and 852 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:42,279 Speaker 15: not for reasons that you could ever even figure out 853 00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 15: ahead of time, you know. I look at that last 854 00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:48,320 Speaker 15: week seventeen game against seventeen, Yeah, week seventeen game against 855 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:51,240 Speaker 15: Washington when he dove for the play I'm talking about Gilmore, 856 00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:52,719 Speaker 15: and I was like, you didn't have. 857 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:53,440 Speaker 7: To do that. 858 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,359 Speaker 15: I literally was like, why you didn't have to do that? 859 00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:00,400 Speaker 15: And you knew he was hurt in the way that 860 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:01,920 Speaker 15: he got he was sitting down there, and I was like, 861 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 15: there was no reason for us to do that. We 862 00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 15: had the lead. You didn't have to sell out for 863 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,200 Speaker 15: that play. That's something that you do maybe in the playoffs. 864 00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:11,239 Speaker 15: I think had he been fully healthy, our defense may 865 00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 15: have looked a little better. I don't know if we 866 00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:15,000 Speaker 15: would have stopped him or if it would have changed anything, 867 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:16,120 Speaker 15: but I think we would have looked better and the 868 00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 15: play calling would have been a. 869 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:17,560 Speaker 12: Little bit better. 870 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,879 Speaker 15: Injuries definitely robbed some of the defense, So I don't 871 00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:23,640 Speaker 15: put one hundred percent of the bad defensive calls and 872 00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:26,680 Speaker 15: playing on Dan Quinn. You gotta go out there and execute. 873 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 15: So going forward, if Dan's not there, I don't know 874 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 15: if that's one hundred percent confirm or now that he's 875 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:34,080 Speaker 15: going to the commanders, but if he's not there, is 876 00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 15: the experiments of having safeties play linebackers and linebackers do 877 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:41,880 Speaker 15: whatever played defensive lineman over. Are we gonna have safeties 878 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:44,120 Speaker 15: and we're gonna have linebackers for this next generation? Is 879 00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 15: that something that you think we need to look at 880 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:48,840 Speaker 15: going forward? Before I leave, I loved all the shows. 881 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:51,440 Speaker 15: You guys did an amazing job keeping our spirits hide 882 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 15: this season, this has been one of the coolest shows ever. 883 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 15: To call in and talk to Rod Woodson and Nate 884 00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:58,480 Speaker 15: Newton's on the show and stuff like that, but to 885 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:01,799 Speaker 15: hear the fans rob Vegas and everybody, all the young 886 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,120 Speaker 15: women and men who called love you guys. Shout out 887 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 15: to everybody. It's gonna be all right, Yeah, We're gonna 888 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:07,439 Speaker 15: be fine. 889 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:12,000 Speaker 4: Have a great day, all right, thanks Smash. I had 890 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 4: a hard time keeping up with the You know, I 891 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 4: love analogies, I mean as much as the next one, 892 00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:20,799 Speaker 4: But man, I was I was struggling there. You know, 893 00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:23,279 Speaker 4: not that I'm a not that I've been on a 894 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,759 Speaker 4: ton of roller coasters myself, but I mean stuck in 895 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:29,400 Speaker 4: for a couple hours, I mean that's sounds kind of traumatic, actually, 896 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 4: So I don't know. I get the point though. I 897 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:36,200 Speaker 4: think just just you know, all the build up and 898 00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:40,319 Speaker 4: then boom over off season. Now we're doing a draft 899 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:43,840 Speaker 4: show just like that. I mean, we should be. We 900 00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:46,440 Speaker 4: should all. We all thought there was a chance to 901 00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:49,239 Speaker 4: go to Vegas for the Super Bowl and it just 902 00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:53,760 Speaker 4: didn't didn't happen. Ask for the question about the linebackers safety, 903 00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 4: you know, who knows you know what's gonna happen here 904 00:39:56,000 --> 00:40:01,520 Speaker 4: with the defensive coordinator, new new coordinator, new scheme, you'd hope. 905 00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:06,000 Speaker 4: And so as much as I like Dan Quinn and 906 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:08,320 Speaker 4: I and in the last couple of years, I didn't 907 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:11,360 Speaker 4: you know, I didn't want to see him leave. You 908 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:15,000 Speaker 4: know now that they have to make some changes. You 909 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:16,840 Speaker 4: have to have some things that you want to be 910 00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 4: excited about. And uh, I think whoever the coordinator is 911 00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:23,279 Speaker 4: there needs to be a little bit more of an 912 00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:26,040 Speaker 4: emphasis on the run. It has to be And and 913 00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:30,239 Speaker 4: I think you know, anytime you you you do mismatches, 914 00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:33,920 Speaker 4: it's a mismatch for a reason. It's a mismatch both ways. 915 00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:38,120 Speaker 4: In the NBA, if you played five guards, you're probably 916 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,680 Speaker 4: gonna get the ball up the court and pass it 917 00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:43,080 Speaker 4: around and probably get some open shots. But if you miss, 918 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:46,200 Speaker 4: you're not getting the rebound, you know, So so just 919 00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:48,319 Speaker 4: because of the mismatch on one end and out the other. 920 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:50,920 Speaker 4: So if you play undersized linebackers, yeah, they can fly 921 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:53,120 Speaker 4: around the ball maybe and then and and chase it 922 00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:55,960 Speaker 4: and and and you know, make some plays. But but 923 00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:58,640 Speaker 4: when it gets hat on a hat and their guys 924 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:01,759 Speaker 4: are bigger than you, look what happens. So I do 925 00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:04,399 Speaker 4: think that whoever the coordinators needs to be a little 926 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:06,680 Speaker 4: bit more emphasis on the run, and with that probably 927 00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:10,759 Speaker 4: means bigger linebackers. All right, let's go to Bill in 928 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:12,360 Speaker 4: New Haven, Connecticut. 929 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:14,240 Speaker 11: Hey, Nick, how you doing, buddy? 930 00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:16,440 Speaker 4: Good Bill? How are you good man? 931 00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:18,560 Speaker 11: Thanks? Hey. I just want to touch real quickly on 932 00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:20,799 Speaker 11: the things Jerry said yesterday, because I think there's a 933 00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:25,319 Speaker 11: misconception as fans. We hear all in, right, and we think, 934 00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:28,400 Speaker 11: oh wow, they're gonna go out, they're gonna get Chris Jones, 935 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:30,879 Speaker 11: they're gonna get this guy or this guy. But if 936 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:35,000 Speaker 11: you really listening to what Jerry said his definition of 937 00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:38,680 Speaker 11: all in, and he mentioned these three players several times, 938 00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:43,239 Speaker 11: and it was Lamb's, Parsons and Prescott, I think his 939 00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 11: definition of all in is an all in financial commitment 940 00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 11: to keeping those players that they drafted and they built 941 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:55,040 Speaker 11: the roster up. So I just think that the fans 942 00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:58,279 Speaker 11: need to prepare himself for when they hear all in. 943 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,160 Speaker 11: It's easy right now to say, oh, yeah, things are 944 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,640 Speaker 11: gonna be different this year. We're gonna go out and 945 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:05,960 Speaker 11: we're gonna be players before Week three in free agency. 946 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:09,239 Speaker 11: But I just don't think that's what he means by 947 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:12,799 Speaker 11: all in. And I think there's a huge disconnect by 948 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:16,520 Speaker 11: between what the franchise thinks all in is and what 949 00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:20,200 Speaker 11: we as fans think call in and you and I'm 950 00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:24,799 Speaker 11: starting I was gonna say, you've hit on it this. 951 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 11: They think they're close. Whether we agree with it, whether 952 00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:32,160 Speaker 11: you agree with it, it doesn't matter. They do think 953 00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:36,399 Speaker 11: they're close, and that's what makes it frustrating by them 954 00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:38,640 Speaker 11: kind of saying two things at the same time. Well, 955 00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:41,239 Speaker 11: we're close, but we're not going all in. But I 956 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:43,000 Speaker 11: just think what it comes down to is there's a 957 00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:46,600 Speaker 11: huge disconnect between they're all in, which is a financial 958 00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:49,400 Speaker 11: commitment of being all in, and what we as fans 959 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:51,240 Speaker 11: want to see as. 960 00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:53,239 Speaker 4: Being all Let's break it down because I mean the 961 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:58,799 Speaker 4: term all in. We know what it's referencing, right, you 962 00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:03,480 Speaker 4: play poker? Yeah, what does all in mean? It means 963 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:07,440 Speaker 4: you're pushing all of your chips in for this hand, 964 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:10,799 Speaker 4: all of them are in. Everything I've got is going 965 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:15,399 Speaker 4: to the middle. And I think I don't know this. 966 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:18,520 Speaker 4: Jerry might be looking at it from a salary cap standpoint, 967 00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:20,680 Speaker 4: going for me to pay Dak, for me to pay 968 00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:23,440 Speaker 4: Micah and for me to pay CD that might be 969 00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:28,080 Speaker 4: all my chips, right, I mean that's you know he's 970 00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:31,799 Speaker 4: thinking from that name. Will it be all No, probably not, 971 00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:34,640 Speaker 4: but it's gonna be a lot. And so I think 972 00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:37,279 Speaker 4: that's that might be what he's thinking. And I'm not 973 00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:40,200 Speaker 4: I'm not saying, you know, he's right or wrong or whatever. 974 00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 4: And you're exactly right because you're all in. Is getting 975 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:47,440 Speaker 4: those those free agents that you're talking about, all all 976 00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:50,399 Speaker 4: the top ones at each position that you need and 977 00:43:50,560 --> 00:43:53,960 Speaker 4: just trading next year's you know, next year's number one 978 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 4: for somebody like that. That to me is all in. 979 00:43:57,080 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 4: I'm gonna trade next year's one for guy that will 980 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:01,759 Speaker 4: help me right now. 981 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:04,799 Speaker 11: See, I see, And I think quickly, I know you 982 00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 11: got to go. I think they think all in. And listen, 983 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:09,520 Speaker 11: they made the trade for Gilmour, they made the trade 984 00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:13,200 Speaker 11: for Cooks. Good trades, but there were trades at their 985 00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:17,720 Speaker 11: price for players that were Pro bowlers. We speak about 986 00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:21,279 Speaker 11: game changers. We're talking about going and getting players that 987 00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:24,719 Speaker 11: actually are still all pros or Pro bowlers. And and 988 00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:29,000 Speaker 11: that's the difference. And uh, quickly with the thing with 989 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:32,719 Speaker 11: this happening today with Quinn it's hard to preach continuity, 990 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:36,040 Speaker 11: which I was okay with bringing McCarthy back, when the 991 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:39,120 Speaker 11: entire half of the coaching staff of the building. Not 992 00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:41,680 Speaker 11: the entire I'm being hyperbolic, but a lot of coaches 993 00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:45,080 Speaker 11: are leaving, so there's not a lot of continuity coming back. 994 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:50,880 Speaker 11: Why you're right, I don't but I just think based 995 00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:54,040 Speaker 11: on things that I've read, quotes from Al Harris from 996 00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:57,920 Speaker 11: the past, and the relationship with Jill Witt and Quinn, 997 00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:00,880 Speaker 11: that there's a high potential for them to Okay, so 998 00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 11: if you're going to say we want to build on 999 00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:06,879 Speaker 11: what we have, which is fine, more than fair. You've 1000 00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:09,440 Speaker 11: been twelve and five for three straight years, you should 1001 00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:12,279 Speaker 11: also have the fourth sight to also realize, and I'm 1002 00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:14,360 Speaker 11: sure they do, that you might lose half of your 1003 00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:16,560 Speaker 11: staff as well. So it kind of takes the legs 1004 00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:17,920 Speaker 11: out on the continuity argument. 1005 00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:21,720 Speaker 4: Okay, thanks for the call, Bill, appreciate good good stuff there. 1006 00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:24,960 Speaker 4: Let me just throw out a couple of things about 1007 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:30,600 Speaker 4: the NFL rules. When in terms of that the coaches, 1008 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:35,080 Speaker 4: every coach on the staff other than receivers, coach Robert 1009 00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:39,440 Speaker 4: Prince is under contract. So according to the NFL rules, 1010 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:43,120 Speaker 4: the only two positions that whether you have a contract 1011 00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:46,279 Speaker 4: or not, the only two coaching positions that you have 1012 00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:50,880 Speaker 4: to let them leave for is a head coach and 1013 00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 4: a defensive and a coordinator an offense, defense, or special 1014 00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:58,640 Speaker 4: teams coordinator. So Dan Quinn is the new coach, will 1015 00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:02,080 Speaker 4: be the new coach of Washington Commanders, and I believe 1016 00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:05,640 Speaker 4: he could take one guy with him to be his coordinator, 1017 00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:07,920 Speaker 4: but he can't take more than that because they're all 1018 00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:11,880 Speaker 4: under contract. They can ask for permission, and if the 1019 00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:14,880 Speaker 4: Cowboys wanted to make a change there and wanted to 1020 00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:17,399 Speaker 4: let a guy out of his contract or whatever, they 1021 00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:20,040 Speaker 4: can do that. So I'm not saying that it will 1022 00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:23,399 Speaker 4: only be one. But if the Cowboys are like, no, no, 1023 00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:26,160 Speaker 4: we're not letting you take everybody over there, they don't 1024 00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:30,360 Speaker 4: have to. It's not and it's nothing about a promotion 1025 00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:33,759 Speaker 4: from one spot to another. It's to be a coordinator. 1026 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,040 Speaker 4: And I think the NFL has gotten they understand all 1027 00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:41,800 Speaker 4: the cute titles of passing game, run game coordinator, assistant, 1028 00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:45,040 Speaker 4: head coach, all this kind of stuff. Now you either 1029 00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:47,839 Speaker 4: you're a coordinator or that's it. So I don't think 1030 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:52,240 Speaker 4: the Cowboys, if they don't want to they can hold 1031 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:56,760 Speaker 4: on to all but at least one of their defensive coaches, 1032 00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:59,120 Speaker 4: if that's what dan Quayn is trying to do. All right, 1033 00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:00,920 Speaker 4: Dylan and Northport, Florida. 1034 00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:03,080 Speaker 14: Hey Mix, how's it going good? 1035 00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:04,800 Speaker 5: How are you doing good? 1036 00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:06,520 Speaker 14: You altered me for a loop today. I tried calling 1037 00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:08,680 Speaker 14: in that one fifty five. I guess it'd be twelve 1038 00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:10,520 Speaker 14: fifty five ye time, but it was already busy. I'm like, 1039 00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:12,319 Speaker 14: ane of these guys were eager today to get in here, 1040 00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:14,839 Speaker 14: and I turn it on and you'll already halfway into 1041 00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:15,160 Speaker 14: this thing. 1042 00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:18,680 Speaker 4: I'm sorry we did. I did put it out on 1043 00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:23,040 Speaker 4: Twitter or x whatever it's called, yeah, a couple of times, 1044 00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:26,319 Speaker 4: but yeah, yeah, and announced it last in the last 1045 00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:28,640 Speaker 4: show as well. So yeah, I figured that would happened 1046 00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:30,520 Speaker 4: though to some you know, if people have lives, you know, 1047 00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:31,200 Speaker 4: they don't just. 1048 00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:33,960 Speaker 14: Yeah, I'm not a great listener, so they work on 1049 00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:38,000 Speaker 14: my listening skills. I actually I want to talk about 1050 00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:39,520 Speaker 14: the same thing that a last I was talking about. 1051 00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:43,160 Speaker 14: It's funny you mentioned that about Jerry. I think I 1052 00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:47,000 Speaker 14: see it a bit differently because Jerry specifically said they're 1053 00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:50,800 Speaker 14: not building for the future. So and Jerry's not getting 1054 00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:53,040 Speaker 14: any younger here. Let's be real, right, So I don't 1055 00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:56,000 Speaker 14: know how much he's got left in the tank. Hopefully 1056 00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:59,120 Speaker 14: a lot more, but you know, whatever we'll see. But 1057 00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:01,880 Speaker 14: he specifically say is not building for the future. So 1058 00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:04,080 Speaker 14: to me, that means there are some deals that will 1059 00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:06,440 Speaker 14: probably get done, like a DAK extension. But some of 1060 00:48:06,440 --> 00:48:08,360 Speaker 14: these deals are going to free up cap space that 1061 00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:12,360 Speaker 14: also allows you to then pursue these all pro guys 1062 00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:15,759 Speaker 14: or these high rice free agents. So I feel like, 1063 00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:18,919 Speaker 14: and I get why people don't trust you. We haven't 1064 00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:21,360 Speaker 14: won anything since the dinosaurs roamed the earth, and you know, 1065 00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:23,520 Speaker 14: he talks lots of a lot of things, so I 1066 00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:26,160 Speaker 14: get why people aren't necessarily willing to jump in and 1067 00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:29,040 Speaker 14: trust them until they see it. But I just have 1068 00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:31,440 Speaker 14: this feeling that, especially if we see a DAK extension, 1069 00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:34,719 Speaker 14: I feel like they may go after a high end 1070 00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:39,000 Speaker 14: defensive tackle, maybe a linebacker, running back for sure, and 1071 00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:42,040 Speaker 14: maybe a center or a certain combination of those things. 1072 00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:44,920 Speaker 14: So that's what I'm expecting, and I think the chips 1073 00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:48,680 Speaker 14: will fall once that DAK extension is completed. Yeah, I 1074 00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:49,719 Speaker 14: just want to get your thoughts on that. 1075 00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:52,480 Speaker 4: I agree. I mean, I think I think the Dak 1076 00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:55,440 Speaker 4: extension if that, if that happens, that that's going to 1077 00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:57,920 Speaker 4: be that that's going to be like the first domino 1078 00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:01,120 Speaker 4: in a lot of things. And if it doesn't happen 1079 00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:03,879 Speaker 4: and they're just going to go off of one year 1080 00:49:04,160 --> 00:49:09,080 Speaker 4: for Dak, you know, at this fifty nine million price tag, 1081 00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:12,320 Speaker 4: then I think that that kind of would would symbol 1082 00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:14,319 Speaker 4: a lot of things of what of where they they're 1083 00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:17,799 Speaker 4: thinking here moving forward and maybe this is just a 1084 00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:20,319 Speaker 4: one year thing. Same with McCarthy and all that. So 1085 00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:22,959 Speaker 4: I think if you're going to be players and really 1086 00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:25,360 Speaker 4: give everybody a chance to do something, then they're probably 1087 00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:28,080 Speaker 4: going to have to extend that. That's why this is 1088 00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:31,440 Speaker 4: a tough situation because they they have Dak does have 1089 00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:36,200 Speaker 4: a lot more leverage here in this in this situation. 1090 00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:39,759 Speaker 14: So yeah, no doubt, no doubt. And then before I go, 1091 00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:42,319 Speaker 14: I guess, toss you a little bomb here and then 1092 00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:45,920 Speaker 14: take off. Jesse Holly what he said about Mike. I 1093 00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:47,920 Speaker 14: just want to get your thoughts on that and his 1094 00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:51,760 Speaker 14: comments on Michah maybe not being committed to play linebacker, 1095 00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:53,760 Speaker 14: don't want to put in the work or whatever you said. 1096 00:49:54,000 --> 00:49:55,239 Speaker 14: I'm not sure if you heard that or not. 1097 00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:58,720 Speaker 4: But yeah, yeah, I think we all heard about Yeah, 1098 00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:03,840 Speaker 4: MICA's mom heard that. Yeah, it happened. Okay, thanks for 1099 00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:07,879 Speaker 4: the call. I don't think my I don't think Jesse 1100 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:12,400 Speaker 4: talked about it on yesterday show, Chris did you you listened? 1101 00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:15,480 Speaker 4: Did they talk about it yesterday, Chris Bean? 1102 00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:17,279 Speaker 5: Is he on the phone? No? 1103 00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:19,359 Speaker 4: They did not talk about Well, if Jesse's not talk 1104 00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:20,719 Speaker 4: about it on his show, I'm not gonna talk about 1105 00:50:20,760 --> 00:50:22,799 Speaker 4: it as well. Let me let me just give him 1106 00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:26,239 Speaker 4: my thoughts on on Micah Parsons from from what I see, 1107 00:50:26,239 --> 00:50:29,759 Speaker 4: because I mean that's the thing, like it's we were 1108 00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:32,399 Speaker 4: in the locker room, uh some you know, I mean 1109 00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:34,759 Speaker 4: for a few minutes there, you know, three times a 1110 00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:37,480 Speaker 4: week or so, and and we hear some stuff and 1111 00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:41,799 Speaker 4: and we you can kind of tell, I mean I've 1112 00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:44,680 Speaker 4: seen it. You can tell that Micah. Micah's mindset is 1113 00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:48,680 Speaker 4: different than some other players. It really is, just just 1114 00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:53,440 Speaker 4: from what I've observed. I mean, he he wants to win. Uh, 1115 00:50:53,600 --> 00:50:56,000 Speaker 4: he wants to play well. He wants to play well. 1116 00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:58,760 Speaker 4: He I mean when he doesn't and and the team wins, 1117 00:50:59,800 --> 00:51:03,879 Speaker 4: I seen him kind of upset about the way he 1118 00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:06,719 Speaker 4: played or the way, you know, even though the team won, 1119 00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:11,760 Speaker 4: he holds himself to the highest standard there. If that's 1120 00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:15,440 Speaker 4: if that's considered selfish or whatever, then then maybe at 1121 00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:18,240 Speaker 4: times he is. But that's not always a bad word. 1122 00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:21,840 Speaker 4: That that word in life isn't always bad because sometimes 1123 00:51:21,880 --> 00:51:25,840 Speaker 4: if you're not looking out for yourself, who will. So again, 1124 00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:29,720 Speaker 4: it's it's hard to judge a player like that because 1125 00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:32,920 Speaker 4: he's unique. He's unique in his own way, and the 1126 00:51:33,280 --> 00:51:35,720 Speaker 4: players know it too. I've seen it. After a Giants 1127 00:51:35,800 --> 00:51:39,399 Speaker 4: game last season, they had seven sacks, he didn't have one, 1128 00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:42,120 Speaker 4: and then and they were kind of joking with him. 1129 00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:44,279 Speaker 4: The players were that, you know, Mike's gonna be mad now, 1130 00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:46,120 Speaker 4: you know, everyone got a sack he didn't, even though 1131 00:51:46,680 --> 00:51:49,319 Speaker 4: we all know that probably he was the reason for 1132 00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:52,320 Speaker 4: most of those sacks, just but just his presence alone. 1133 00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:56,759 Speaker 4: So I you know, I'm trying to to you know. 1134 00:51:56,760 --> 00:52:00,560 Speaker 4: I read what what Micah's mom said about him, and 1135 00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:02,480 Speaker 4: and you know, and it sounded just like what a 1136 00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:06,200 Speaker 4: mom would say about her son. I just think he's 1137 00:52:06,239 --> 00:52:11,000 Speaker 4: he's probably misunderstood a little bit. He definitely wants to win. 1138 00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:14,560 Speaker 4: He definitely wants to to be the reason why they win. 1139 00:52:14,640 --> 00:52:16,400 Speaker 4: And and and like I said, he holds himself to 1140 00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:19,839 Speaker 4: the highest of standards, and so you know, I'm going 1141 00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:21,520 Speaker 4: to try to give him the benefit of the doubt 1142 00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:24,600 Speaker 4: a little bit on that and and see see what happens. 1143 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:27,240 Speaker 4: I mean, he's he's kind of said he's committed to 1144 00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:30,280 Speaker 4: to make it, you know, to turning this thing around 1145 00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:33,680 Speaker 4: and and and getting even better next year. And you know, 1146 00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:37,480 Speaker 4: I mean, it's it's an old it's not old school. 1147 00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:39,440 Speaker 4: That's the thing. Mike is not old school. He's not 1148 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:42,880 Speaker 4: I mean, he's he's he plays you know, uh, I 1149 00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:45,080 Speaker 4: mean he's he's got his own podcast and he says 1150 00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:47,000 Speaker 4: a lot of things on there, and he says things 1151 00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:49,440 Speaker 4: that you know, some of the old school players that 1152 00:52:49,520 --> 00:52:51,360 Speaker 4: didn't say because it's just a different error. It is 1153 00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:54,839 Speaker 4: what it is. But I know this that that when 1154 00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:57,560 Speaker 4: it's third and nine, you know, if you can get 1155 00:52:57,560 --> 00:52:59,799 Speaker 4: to that point, there's nobody in the NFL I'd rather 1156 00:52:59,840 --> 00:53:02,440 Speaker 4: have Rush in the past or than than Micah Parsons. 1157 00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:03,879 Speaker 4: And I think a lot of fans kind of feel 1158 00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:04,560 Speaker 4: the same way. 1159 00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:05,040 Speaker 5: Uh. 1160 00:53:05,080 --> 00:53:07,759 Speaker 4: You know, he's he's got like all of us, you know, 1161 00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:11,120 Speaker 4: he's got maturing to do that that most young players do, 1162 00:53:11,640 --> 00:53:13,440 Speaker 4: and uh, I think he's going to be doing that 1163 00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:16,080 Speaker 4: with the Dallas Cowboys for a long time. So uh, 1164 00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:17,839 Speaker 4: I don't know if that answered the question or not, 1165 00:53:18,160 --> 00:53:20,799 Speaker 4: But that's just my take on on what I see 1166 00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:23,960 Speaker 4: from from Micah. And you know, I think he'll, you know, 1167 00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:26,200 Speaker 4: if he I think he'll be committed to to being 1168 00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:29,200 Speaker 4: even a better player uh this next year. And if 1169 00:53:29,239 --> 00:53:31,839 Speaker 4: that's that's the case, that's not good for for left 1170 00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:34,160 Speaker 4: tackles and right tackles trying to trying to block them. 1171 00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:38,840 Speaker 4: So all right, let's go. Let's go to James in 1172 00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:39,480 Speaker 4: New Jersey. 1173 00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:45,319 Speaker 17: What's up, you know, following them this TV. He just 1174 00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:48,320 Speaker 17: said about Michael getting to the quarterback on third down 1175 00:53:49,320 --> 00:53:51,360 Speaker 17: if he really wants the kind of money who he 1176 00:53:51,440 --> 00:53:54,120 Speaker 17: thinks he wants he going to get as a defensive 1177 00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:57,600 Speaker 17: and he obviously doesn't want to play linebacker. He didn't 1178 00:53:57,640 --> 00:53:59,919 Speaker 17: think so it didn't seem like it. Yeah, he should 1179 00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:02,279 Speaker 17: maybe playing a little harder, it guess to one as well. 1180 00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:06,360 Speaker 17: In other words, defensive end does both jobs. At this point, 1181 00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:08,759 Speaker 17: he's just a pass rusher, So if he wants to 1182 00:54:08,760 --> 00:54:11,600 Speaker 17: come on down the field just on third down, then 1183 00:54:11,640 --> 00:54:13,640 Speaker 17: he's not going to get paid the twelve a kellion 1184 00:54:13,719 --> 00:54:18,320 Speaker 17: dollars a year to be a real good defensive end. Okay, 1185 00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:21,200 Speaker 17: now that's part of concerned. I don't understand where the 1186 00:54:21,280 --> 00:54:23,240 Speaker 17: leadership is going to come from when you're best defensive 1187 00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:27,800 Speaker 17: player is seeing stuff like I'm okay with I at peace? 1188 00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:30,960 Speaker 17: That would that you would never hear somebody like Kobe 1189 00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:33,879 Speaker 17: Bryant or Michael Jordan's to say what that would never 1190 00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:39,719 Speaker 17: happen he said, he said, I'm at peace. That's what 1191 00:54:39,800 --> 00:54:43,000 Speaker 17: he said, I'm at peace. No, you should never be 1192 00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:45,120 Speaker 17: at peace with Lucy if you're going to be a 1193 00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:48,200 Speaker 17: superstar and won't be a leader of your team because 1194 00:54:48,239 --> 00:54:50,040 Speaker 17: you're not giving a good message to the rest of 1195 00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:53,520 Speaker 17: your team. You know, because I because if it doesn't 1196 00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:56,239 Speaker 17: come from here from him, I have no idea where 1197 00:54:56,239 --> 00:54:58,640 Speaker 17: everyda is going to come from on defense because he's 1198 00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:02,000 Speaker 17: your best player on defense. That's why, Yes, that's not 1199 00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:05,439 Speaker 17: a good situation for us. Accessert The optics are not good. 1200 00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:07,400 Speaker 17: He used to watch what comes out of his mouth 1201 00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:10,319 Speaker 17: because people can take it wrong. So he has to 1202 00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:12,480 Speaker 17: be more careful. He's going to be the leader of 1203 00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:15,479 Speaker 17: this defense, he has to be more compizant on what's 1204 00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:18,200 Speaker 17: coming out of his mouth, because it's too easy for 1205 00:55:18,320 --> 00:55:21,040 Speaker 17: all of us to take it the wrong away. So 1206 00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:24,200 Speaker 17: he'd be very clear what he's saying and make sure 1207 00:55:24,200 --> 00:55:26,640 Speaker 17: that he's not tossing any Nelson of us, not he did, 1208 00:55:27,280 --> 00:55:30,280 Speaker 17: but make sure that we're could that is not the case, 1209 00:55:30,560 --> 00:55:33,480 Speaker 17: and that he's willing to do like he wants the 1210 00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:37,239 Speaker 17: owners to do, go all in when he's on the 1211 00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:40,520 Speaker 17: field as well. And if speaking of going all in, 1212 00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:45,480 Speaker 17: if we're going all in this season, then they need 1213 00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:47,120 Speaker 17: to find a way to make a deal with that 1214 00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:52,440 Speaker 17: to maybe cut that salary cap hit in half, hopefully 1215 00:55:52,640 --> 00:55:54,239 Speaker 17: with the multiple year extension. 1216 00:55:55,200 --> 00:55:56,600 Speaker 21: And then you get. 1217 00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:01,560 Speaker 17: Some linebacker to tell them from I'm sorry, I can't 1218 00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:07,839 Speaker 17: remember the names. Oh Uh from the Ravens. Okay, they 1219 00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:13,880 Speaker 17: have the linebackers, and and uh Jones from the Chiefs. 1220 00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:16,760 Speaker 17: He's a free agent if you're going all in, because 1221 00:56:16,800 --> 00:56:20,719 Speaker 17: you got to get you know, and maybe Barkley from 1222 00:56:20,760 --> 00:56:24,680 Speaker 17: the Giants type the running back. If you're going all in, yes, 1223 00:56:24,880 --> 00:56:27,440 Speaker 17: just go all in because you know we want to 1224 00:56:27,440 --> 00:56:30,600 Speaker 17: win the championship. If you're gonna afterwards, we're gonna have 1225 00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:33,160 Speaker 17: augh couple of years afterwards. But it won't make it 1226 00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:35,040 Speaker 17: won't be any it won't be it won't make a 1227 00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:37,839 Speaker 17: difference after that point, once we win the championship after 1228 00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:39,880 Speaker 17: not winnings one for thirty years. 1229 00:56:40,400 --> 00:56:42,959 Speaker 4: All right, all right, well thanks for the call, James. 1230 00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:47,160 Speaker 4: I'll say this though, if if you know, fans just 1231 00:56:47,160 --> 00:56:50,200 Speaker 4: just don't have selective memory. Okay, I'm like, if just 1232 00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:54,000 Speaker 4: just remember the way you know what you're thinking now, 1233 00:56:54,160 --> 00:56:56,719 Speaker 4: if that's what you want, if you want, hey, I 1234 00:56:56,840 --> 00:57:01,080 Speaker 4: hope they do. If that's the mentality is, is that 1235 00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:05,799 Speaker 4: you want them to extend dak to cut his salary 1236 00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:09,960 Speaker 4: cap charge this year down significantly so you can go 1237 00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:14,200 Speaker 4: and get some of those players. Then just remember that 1238 00:57:14,200 --> 00:57:17,880 Speaker 4: that then if it doesn't work out next year and 1239 00:57:17,880 --> 00:57:21,240 Speaker 4: and then he's still a free agent and now you know, 1240 00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:23,240 Speaker 4: I mean he's not a free agent. He's still under contract, 1241 00:57:23,240 --> 00:57:26,800 Speaker 4: and now that the cap charge is way higher, and 1242 00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:29,520 Speaker 4: it's like, what are the Cowboys doing? Why why do 1243 00:57:29,560 --> 00:57:32,680 Speaker 4: they still invest in this guy? It's because of this 1244 00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:35,920 Speaker 4: scenario right now for this year. So if they're going 1245 00:57:35,960 --> 00:57:40,160 Speaker 4: to do this, then that means he's the guy and 1246 00:57:40,240 --> 00:57:43,160 Speaker 4: you gotta be okay with that, you know. So if not, 1247 00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:47,000 Speaker 4: then he's gonna count fifty nine million, and he's gonna 1248 00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:50,480 Speaker 4: They're gonna try to win somehow, some way with with 1249 00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:53,040 Speaker 4: with what they have, and they're gonna draft players and 1250 00:57:53,080 --> 00:57:55,800 Speaker 4: play them because that's probably they're not gonna have a 1251 00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:58,240 Speaker 4: lot of other options, and they're gonna have a younger 1252 00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:00,880 Speaker 4: team and and try to try to win that that way, 1253 00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:03,600 Speaker 4: and then then then it doesn't work out, then then 1254 00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:06,400 Speaker 4: probably next year. If it doesn't work out this year, 1255 00:58:06,440 --> 00:58:07,920 Speaker 4: then I'm sure there'll be a different coach and a 1256 00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:12,920 Speaker 4: different quarterback, and then you're basically starting over. So you know, 1257 00:58:13,080 --> 00:58:15,320 Speaker 4: just just remember what you're asking for. If you really 1258 00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:17,520 Speaker 4: want them to go all in, then some of the 1259 00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:19,880 Speaker 4: steps that it's going to take to do that is 1260 00:58:20,640 --> 00:58:22,960 Speaker 4: probably going to mean that, you know, your quarterback is 1261 00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:24,440 Speaker 4: going to be here for a little bit. All right, 1262 00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:26,560 Speaker 4: let's go to H. David in Chicago. 1263 00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:29,160 Speaker 21: Yes, sir, how you doing today? 1264 00:58:29,240 --> 00:58:31,560 Speaker 4: Mick good Man? How are you doing good? 1265 00:58:31,600 --> 00:58:32,840 Speaker 21: How about them Cowboys? 1266 00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:33,520 Speaker 5: All right? 1267 00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:34,600 Speaker 4: How about them? 1268 00:58:35,080 --> 00:58:35,560 Speaker 21: I've been. 1269 00:58:37,360 --> 00:58:37,800 Speaker 5: There, you go. 1270 00:58:38,600 --> 00:58:39,959 Speaker 4: We had to get Jimmy in there too. 1271 00:58:40,360 --> 00:58:43,360 Speaker 21: Absolutely, here we go, when that too? 1272 00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:45,120 Speaker 4: Is this your first Is this your first call? 1273 00:58:45,880 --> 00:58:46,360 Speaker 21: Yes, sir? 1274 00:58:46,440 --> 00:58:47,360 Speaker 4: Well, then guess what. 1275 00:58:50,200 --> 00:58:52,600 Speaker 21: I've been a huge fan of the Cowboys since the nineties. 1276 00:58:52,600 --> 00:58:54,920 Speaker 21: I'm from Chicago, so you can imagine what I've had 1277 00:58:54,960 --> 00:58:58,640 Speaker 21: to do with sure, but I was calling because of 1278 00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:01,840 Speaker 21: the Dan Quinn and information that just came about the 1279 00:59:01,920 --> 00:59:06,280 Speaker 21: Washington football team. I see this as the perfect opportunity, 1280 00:59:06,600 --> 00:59:08,800 Speaker 21: and I'm not really seeing a lot of Cowboys fans 1281 00:59:08,800 --> 00:59:12,560 Speaker 21: discussing this. Why don't we change the scheme now to 1282 00:59:12,680 --> 00:59:16,800 Speaker 21: a three to four put Michael Parsons at right outside linebacker. 1283 00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:19,440 Speaker 21: This will give us an extra big body in the 1284 00:59:19,480 --> 00:59:22,720 Speaker 21: middle to stop the run, and in my opinion, it 1285 00:59:22,800 --> 00:59:25,200 Speaker 21: is the best thing to do for this last year 1286 00:59:25,240 --> 00:59:28,480 Speaker 21: of McCarthy because then you can go look for your 1287 00:59:28,520 --> 00:59:31,720 Speaker 21: next head coach based upon the three four scheme. Because 1288 00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:35,560 Speaker 21: what I'm seeing is the offense they're producing numbers no 1289 00:59:35,560 --> 00:59:36,880 Speaker 21: matter who the coordinator is. 1290 00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:38,400 Speaker 4: It fields like we've. 1291 00:59:38,200 --> 00:59:40,920 Speaker 21: Seen so many guys come in, even Jason Garrett producing 1292 00:59:40,960 --> 00:59:43,720 Speaker 21: good numbers before with Romo and Dak. But what I 1293 00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:46,440 Speaker 21: see is the defense is the real issue when the 1294 00:59:46,520 --> 00:59:49,360 Speaker 21: rubber meets the road. So my call is basically centered 1295 00:59:49,400 --> 00:59:52,320 Speaker 21: around would you be open to a three to four defense? 1296 00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:54,840 Speaker 21: Going back to that with those Wade Phillips days because 1297 00:59:54,880 --> 00:59:58,440 Speaker 21: I remember DeMarcus wearing at three four. He was a terror. 1298 00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:01,120 Speaker 21: He went to the Denver Bronx, got to play in 1299 01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:03,920 Speaker 21: the three to four again won a Super Bowl. Now, 1300 01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:05,840 Speaker 21: of course he had a Hall of Famer on the 1301 01:00:05,880 --> 01:00:08,520 Speaker 21: other side as well, at the left outside linebacker. 1302 01:00:08,600 --> 01:00:10,439 Speaker 9: But I really do believe. 1303 01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:13,680 Speaker 21: DeMarcus Lawrence can play left outside linebacker, and in certain 1304 01:00:13,760 --> 01:00:16,960 Speaker 21: packages we could always still do the nickel with the 1305 01:00:16,960 --> 01:00:19,840 Speaker 21: four down linemen, but I think it's smart to just 1306 01:00:19,880 --> 01:00:23,480 Speaker 21: switch toward base three four just because we cannot stop 1307 01:00:23,560 --> 01:00:25,320 Speaker 21: the run this day of our lives. Thank you so 1308 01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:26,280 Speaker 21: much for taking my call. 1309 01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:30,360 Speaker 4: All right, good thinking. I think Chris and I talked 1310 01:00:30,360 --> 01:00:33,520 Speaker 4: about that just today about you know, would it be 1311 01:00:33,520 --> 01:00:36,800 Speaker 4: possible to the three to four and you've mentioned DeMarcus 1312 01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:40,800 Speaker 4: ware and you mentioned Micah Parsons. Yes, those guys could 1313 01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:43,400 Speaker 4: be you could make them an outside linebacker in the 1314 01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:47,160 Speaker 4: three to four today, I mean easy. It's not so 1315 01:00:47,280 --> 01:00:50,440 Speaker 4: much about that to me as it is the other lineman. 1316 01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:55,120 Speaker 4: Who do you have the defensive ends that are really 1317 01:00:55,160 --> 01:00:59,240 Speaker 4: defensive tackles. Do you have those guys? You know, do 1318 01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:03,400 Speaker 4: you have two inside linebackers that can step up and 1319 01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:06,320 Speaker 4: make those plays. Do you have a nose tackle? You know, 1320 01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:10,640 Speaker 4: you'd have to probably sign Hankins for that. And you 1321 01:01:10,680 --> 01:01:14,720 Speaker 4: know there's osa fit into that, you know, is he 1322 01:01:14,920 --> 01:01:19,040 Speaker 4: is he a three to four guy? Could he fit perhaps? 1323 01:01:19,360 --> 01:01:19,600 Speaker 8: You know? 1324 01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:23,320 Speaker 4: I mean I think I think great football players can 1325 01:01:23,320 --> 01:01:25,520 Speaker 4: be great football players. One thing's always kind of annoyed 1326 01:01:25,560 --> 01:01:27,400 Speaker 4: me when they're like, no, we can't sign this guy. 1327 01:01:27,880 --> 01:01:30,400 Speaker 4: He's not he's not a scheme fit, you know, like 1328 01:01:30,400 --> 01:01:33,200 Speaker 4: like the Honey Badger, like Tyron Matthews. The one always 1329 01:01:33,200 --> 01:01:34,919 Speaker 4: comes to mind, like, no, it doesn't fit the scheme. 1330 01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:38,360 Speaker 4: I'm like, well, he's a badass in like four other schemes, 1331 01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:40,240 Speaker 4: so why can't we just change the scheme? You know, 1332 01:01:40,400 --> 01:01:43,440 Speaker 4: Like I know it's it's different than that. But sometimes 1333 01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:46,880 Speaker 4: I think, if you I think great players can can 1334 01:01:46,920 --> 01:01:51,320 Speaker 4: fit into a scheme, okay, And so I think there's 1335 01:01:51,360 --> 01:01:55,960 Speaker 4: other other pieces there. I don't necessarily seeing them switching 1336 01:01:55,960 --> 01:01:59,840 Speaker 4: to a three four unless they're committed over over time, 1337 01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:02,520 Speaker 4: you know. And that's the thing. Bill Parcells tried to 1338 01:02:02,560 --> 01:02:05,560 Speaker 4: do that in over a couple of years. He started 1339 01:02:05,600 --> 01:02:07,000 Speaker 4: in two thousand and five, and he was going to 1340 01:02:07,080 --> 01:02:09,080 Speaker 4: do it for a couple of years. But what happened 1341 01:02:09,160 --> 01:02:12,160 Speaker 4: was is they drafted where they drafted Spears, then they 1342 01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:15,600 Speaker 4: drafted Kevin Burnett, and then later on they drafted Chris 1343 01:02:15,640 --> 01:02:19,360 Speaker 4: Canny and Dre Ratliffe and so in one draft. So 1344 01:02:19,560 --> 01:02:22,000 Speaker 4: I mean, we still a documentary on that we did, 1345 01:02:22,680 --> 01:02:25,400 Speaker 4: but all of those guys in one draft. And now 1346 01:02:25,400 --> 01:02:26,800 Speaker 4: that all of a sudden, I know we can play 1347 01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:29,240 Speaker 4: three four right now. We have the pieces in place, 1348 01:02:29,560 --> 01:02:33,640 Speaker 4: So if they can do that, I don't necessarily see 1349 01:02:33,680 --> 01:02:36,080 Speaker 4: it happening in one year, but it might be kind 1350 01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:39,000 Speaker 4: of a commitment that you can go to and yeah, 1351 01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:41,440 Speaker 4: I think Micah Parsons can do it. It's do you 1352 01:02:41,480 --> 01:02:44,880 Speaker 4: have the insight pieces that would kind of were really 1353 01:02:44,880 --> 01:02:46,880 Speaker 4: what it comes down to, all right, Joe and Stanford. 1354 01:02:46,920 --> 01:02:49,640 Speaker 4: He's gonna be our last caller, usually the first caller. 1355 01:02:49,680 --> 01:02:52,600 Speaker 13: But what's up, hey, brother? Are you today? 1356 01:02:52,680 --> 01:02:53,560 Speaker 4: I'm good? What's up? 1357 01:02:53,640 --> 01:02:56,560 Speaker 13: Well? I'm sorry, miss Woody, but I've got to talk 1358 01:02:56,600 --> 01:02:58,760 Speaker 13: to him before, so it's only fair somebody else gets 1359 01:02:58,760 --> 01:02:59,200 Speaker 13: talked to him. 1360 01:02:59,200 --> 01:02:59,920 Speaker 4: I appreciate that. 1361 01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:02,560 Speaker 13: So I haven't been listening to the show. I just 1362 01:03:02,720 --> 01:03:04,800 Speaker 13: I just called in cold here. I haven't been able 1363 01:03:04,840 --> 01:03:07,800 Speaker 13: to get you while I'm in my vehicle. But my my, 1364 01:03:07,800 --> 01:03:09,840 Speaker 13: my question obviously is going to be about dan Quinn. 1365 01:03:09,880 --> 01:03:12,360 Speaker 13: When we talked the other day, we talked about, Hey, 1366 01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:15,040 Speaker 13: is this gonna just nothing's gonna change. Well, obviously that's not. 1367 01:03:15,000 --> 01:03:15,720 Speaker 7: Going to be the case. 1368 01:03:15,760 --> 01:03:21,760 Speaker 13: Now put you see about on Joe, Well, oh I 1369 01:03:21,840 --> 01:03:25,560 Speaker 13: got a female time. Oh you you heard the thing? 1370 01:03:26,040 --> 01:03:27,040 Speaker 13: That's my wife. 1371 01:03:28,360 --> 01:03:29,720 Speaker 4: You see about on? 1372 01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:37,400 Speaker 13: That's funny. Oh, that's funny. You heard that. So obviously 1373 01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:40,440 Speaker 13: there's going to be changes. Uh. Do you feel like 1374 01:03:41,080 --> 01:03:45,400 Speaker 13: that this coaching pick is going to be one hundred 1375 01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:50,400 Speaker 13: percent Mike McCarthy's decision? Bid People said, Mike McCarthy's a 1376 01:03:50,480 --> 01:03:51,200 Speaker 13: decision or what. 1377 01:03:53,160 --> 01:03:55,440 Speaker 4: That's a good question. That's a really good question. 1378 01:03:55,600 --> 01:03:55,840 Speaker 17: Joe. 1379 01:03:55,960 --> 01:04:01,000 Speaker 4: Uh, Well, I'll say this, none of it, None of 1380 01:04:01,040 --> 01:04:03,920 Speaker 4: these decisions will probably be one hundred percent Mike McCarthy's 1381 01:04:03,920 --> 01:04:06,600 Speaker 4: because I think that they all pride themselves on how 1382 01:04:06,640 --> 01:04:09,840 Speaker 4: they collaborate and and and they they don't always make 1383 01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:12,360 Speaker 4: decisions that are one hundred percent. They get on the 1384 01:04:12,360 --> 01:04:14,880 Speaker 4: same page. But I know exactly what you're thinking and 1385 01:04:15,360 --> 01:04:19,800 Speaker 4: why you're saying that, and it's a it's a good question. Yeah, 1386 01:04:19,800 --> 01:04:22,240 Speaker 4: he's probably gonna have some guys in mind that he 1387 01:04:22,400 --> 01:04:25,560 Speaker 4: that he really wants. But at the same time, I'm 1388 01:04:25,640 --> 01:04:27,480 Speaker 4: sure you know, Jerry and Steven, they're gonna have to 1389 01:04:27,520 --> 01:04:31,200 Speaker 4: sign off on that, so they'll, i mean, they'll figure 1390 01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:33,800 Speaker 4: it out. But but yeah, and we'll probably never know, 1391 01:04:34,560 --> 01:04:37,120 Speaker 4: you know, whether what happens down the road. But that 1392 01:04:37,120 --> 01:04:39,520 Speaker 4: that's a that's a really good question. And and you know, 1393 01:04:39,600 --> 01:04:41,840 Speaker 4: I think if we knew the answer to that, then 1394 01:04:41,880 --> 01:04:44,200 Speaker 4: we would know exactly what what might happen here in 1395 01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:45,080 Speaker 4: the next year or two. 1396 01:04:46,680 --> 01:04:51,040 Speaker 13: Well, one thing, there are three really great candidates out. 1397 01:04:50,920 --> 01:04:54,160 Speaker 11: There, and I know the probably be discussed, now go 1398 01:04:54,320 --> 01:04:54,640 Speaker 11: for it. 1399 01:04:54,880 --> 01:04:57,720 Speaker 13: Who do you got the three? And I'm gonna talk 1400 01:04:57,720 --> 01:04:59,640 Speaker 13: about I'm gonna get made fun up a little bit. 1401 01:04:59,720 --> 01:05:04,200 Speaker 13: But there all three head coaches Rabel, uh, the coach 1402 01:05:04,240 --> 01:05:07,640 Speaker 13: from the Commander's pp for guy's name now, uh, they 1403 01:05:07,720 --> 01:05:11,480 Speaker 13: head coach that just got fired, and Bill Belichick. So 1404 01:05:12,320 --> 01:05:15,320 Speaker 13: those are three candidates that would be real good defensive 1405 01:05:15,320 --> 01:05:17,680 Speaker 13: coordinators and they're not going to be head coaches. 1406 01:05:17,320 --> 01:05:24,200 Speaker 4: This year, Okay, Ron Rivera that one that one maybe 1407 01:05:24,280 --> 01:05:28,280 Speaker 4: could make some sense. Rabel not sure if about that. 1408 01:05:28,320 --> 01:05:30,680 Speaker 4: When he's he's trying to be a head coach, and 1409 01:05:30,880 --> 01:05:34,120 Speaker 4: it may be a situation like McCarthy where he would 1410 01:05:34,200 --> 01:05:38,680 Speaker 4: sit out a year and then and then we'll see Belichick. 1411 01:05:38,880 --> 01:05:42,120 Speaker 4: I'm I'm sorry, I just don't I don't see the greatest, 1412 01:05:42,960 --> 01:05:45,480 Speaker 4: you know, the greatest head coach of all time, just 1413 01:05:45,520 --> 01:05:48,280 Speaker 4: not not you know, getting a job and being a 1414 01:05:48,320 --> 01:05:51,360 Speaker 4: defensive coordinator under Mike McCarthy. I mean, just don't see 1415 01:05:51,360 --> 01:05:55,160 Speaker 4: that happening. What a terrible situation that would be from 1416 01:05:55,240 --> 01:05:58,919 Speaker 4: for McCarthy. I mean, seriously, forget forget losing a game. 1417 01:05:58,960 --> 01:06:00,840 Speaker 4: I mean, like if you're down at the half, I mean, 1418 01:06:01,600 --> 01:06:03,920 Speaker 4: there're gonna be people calling for you at that point. 1419 01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:08,000 Speaker 4: That this doesn't seem like a fun situation for him 1420 01:06:08,040 --> 01:06:10,840 Speaker 4: at least, But then again, that's it's not all about that. 1421 01:06:10,920 --> 01:06:12,760 Speaker 4: I I I don't see that happening. But I think 1422 01:06:12,800 --> 01:06:14,880 Speaker 4: Rivera would be a name that you would throw out there. 1423 01:06:15,800 --> 01:06:18,120 Speaker 4: And then Uh and Vrabel as well. I think I 1424 01:06:18,160 --> 01:06:21,280 Speaker 4: know uh are one of our staff writers, Nick Harris 1425 01:06:21,360 --> 01:06:24,560 Speaker 4: is working on a story on on some potential names, 1426 01:06:24,600 --> 01:06:26,640 Speaker 4: and and those two are on there. I don't think 1427 01:06:26,720 --> 01:06:29,240 Speaker 4: Belichick is on there, but also some some in house 1428 01:06:29,440 --> 01:06:32,160 Speaker 4: you know names as well from the Cowboys staff. And 1429 01:06:32,440 --> 01:06:36,200 Speaker 4: but like I said, I'll reiterate, I think I think 1430 01:06:36,240 --> 01:06:39,240 Speaker 4: some of the questions about scheme and all that it's 1431 01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:41,400 Speaker 4: got it just like it would on offense. Okay, just 1432 01:06:41,440 --> 01:06:44,400 Speaker 4: like if you've brought in an offensive coordinator, your first 1433 01:06:44,520 --> 01:06:47,080 Speaker 4: question would be what what how do you how do 1434 01:06:47,120 --> 01:06:48,960 Speaker 4: you view dak and what what are some of the 1435 01:06:48,960 --> 01:06:51,560 Speaker 4: things you're gonna do with him? It's the same with 1436 01:06:51,640 --> 01:06:54,800 Speaker 4: Micah Parsons. And so that's that's what I would be 1437 01:06:54,840 --> 01:06:57,480 Speaker 4: interested in, is what what do they what do they think? 1438 01:06:57,800 --> 01:07:00,560 Speaker 4: Where do they think he would line up? What's best 1439 01:07:00,600 --> 01:07:02,880 Speaker 4: for him? And then also that's a one A and 1440 01:07:02,920 --> 01:07:05,600 Speaker 4: then one B is you know, how are you gonna 1441 01:07:05,600 --> 01:07:08,280 Speaker 4: stop the run? That's that's what they gotta do. You 1442 01:07:08,360 --> 01:07:10,880 Speaker 4: gotta be able to stop the run. But good, good stuff, 1443 01:07:11,040 --> 01:07:14,600 Speaker 4: Like I always love when when people call in, even 1444 01:07:14,680 --> 01:07:16,960 Speaker 4: if their opinions are kind of out there, even if 1445 01:07:16,960 --> 01:07:21,240 Speaker 4: they've got some some outlandish you know, observations or whatever, 1446 01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:25,240 Speaker 4: you know, don't just we see the problems, try to 1447 01:07:25,280 --> 01:07:27,400 Speaker 4: find a solution, try to come up with an answer. 1448 01:07:27,560 --> 01:07:30,320 Speaker 4: That's what I love. And so I'm never gonna say, oh, 1449 01:07:30,360 --> 01:07:32,920 Speaker 4: that's that's crazy or wild or whatever, because you know, 1450 01:07:33,360 --> 01:07:36,040 Speaker 4: here we are stuck with these questions that we don't 1451 01:07:36,040 --> 01:07:38,160 Speaker 4: have answers to. But at least let's come up and 1452 01:07:38,840 --> 01:07:40,840 Speaker 4: figure it out. You know, it's like going outside in 1453 01:07:41,880 --> 01:07:44,080 Speaker 4: Texas in July and saying it's hot. Well, we all 1454 01:07:44,120 --> 01:07:46,200 Speaker 4: know that what we're gonna do about it? You know, 1455 01:07:46,560 --> 01:07:48,600 Speaker 4: you're gonna you're gonna fix the AC or you're gonna 1456 01:07:48,600 --> 01:07:51,080 Speaker 4: get indoors or what are you gonna do? So all right, 1457 01:07:51,240 --> 01:07:53,320 Speaker 4: sounds good. This has been a it's been a really 1458 01:07:53,680 --> 01:07:57,320 Speaker 4: good show. Appreciate all the calls. Also, Darren Woodson joined 1459 01:07:57,360 --> 01:07:59,640 Speaker 4: us for the first twenty minutes or so twenty five minutes. 1460 01:08:00,120 --> 01:08:02,800 Speaker 4: Great to be on with him. We're all got our 1461 01:08:02,800 --> 01:08:05,720 Speaker 4: fingers crossed that he is going to be in the 1462 01:08:05,760 --> 01:08:09,520 Speaker 4: Pro Football Hall of Fame this time next week. We'll 1463 01:08:09,520 --> 01:08:11,680 Speaker 4: find that out. That is the reason why there will 1464 01:08:11,720 --> 01:08:14,440 Speaker 4: not be a Thursday show next week, because I'll be 1465 01:08:14,520 --> 01:08:19,280 Speaker 4: there in Vegas as well covering that. Also NFL Honors 1466 01:08:20,120 --> 01:08:22,680 Speaker 4: and anybody else that's kind of walking around Radio Row 1467 01:08:22,720 --> 01:08:25,240 Speaker 4: that tends to happen. I know we talked to Dak 1468 01:08:25,320 --> 01:08:28,639 Speaker 4: and Micah Parsons there last year, so we'll see if 1469 01:08:29,040 --> 01:08:33,360 Speaker 4: see what I can get into their next Thursday. But 1470 01:08:33,360 --> 01:08:36,280 Speaker 4: we will have a show on Tuesday at the normal time, 1471 01:08:36,320 --> 01:08:38,880 Speaker 4: back to our one o'clock time. We changed it today 1472 01:08:38,920 --> 01:08:41,320 Speaker 4: to accommodate Darren's schedule, but we'll be back at one 1473 01:08:41,320 --> 01:08:46,200 Speaker 4: o'clock on Tuesday, taking all of your calls. Talking about 1474 01:08:46,240 --> 01:08:50,160 Speaker 4: the Pro Ball. Probably not, but we'll be talking about 1475 01:08:50,439 --> 01:08:53,400 Speaker 4: whatever whatever happens. Maybe a new defensive coordinator by then, 1476 01:08:53,520 --> 01:08:56,040 Speaker 4: or or we'll at least talk about some of the candidates. 1477 01:08:56,040 --> 01:08:59,040 Speaker 4: So for Chris Beam, I'm Nick Eatman. We will see 1478 01:08:59,040 --> 01:09:01,080 Speaker 4: you next time on cap Boy Storyline seem 1479 01:09:01,840 --> 01:09:04,840 Speaker 19: This has been a production of Dallascowboys dot Com and 1480 01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:06,840 Speaker 19: the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
