What happened yesterday? If anybody's still listening, Yeah, 133 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: News and notes for the Cowboys. Jerry Jones went early 134 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 1: today on the fanom and gave a little bit of 135 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: a Dak update. He said he was very encouraged by 136 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: what Dack did out there yesterday. I don't think they 137 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 1: had like a full full normal practice, but they did 138 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 1: a little out there apparently, so that's encouraging. But he said, look, 139 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 1: I mean I talked about this yesterday. They're going to 140 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 1: take the whole week and make sure there's nothing that 141 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: he's not responding well too with the calf after practice 142 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 1: and all that. So they're leaving their options open there, 143 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: but I think they're they're very hopeful he will start 144 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: Sunday and no boot. Yesterday was a big storyline. He 145 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 1: walked out of the facility to cheer on a team member, 146 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: cheron a staff member doing the workout on the field 147 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: and thus showing that the boot is no longer there 148 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: on that right foot. Yeah, nutritionists on staff was running 149 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: and he was he was encouraging him. Jeron Curse was 150 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: also talking at the time, and I think that kind 151 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 1: of made a point to kind of slip both feet 152 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 1: out the door just to kind of show there's no 153 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: boot there. I think maybe he was doing that just 154 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: to kind of show the media like y'all are y'all 155 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: are tripping, like this is gonna be fine. We'll see, 156 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 1: we'll see. But I think they're they're very hopeful.

I'm not sure if like Wednesday, they're 164 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: gonna jump him right into full practice. They might, you know, 165 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: it may be kind of like, hey, how's it going, 166 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 1: how do you feel after individual? How much do you 167 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 1: want to do, and just kind of go from there. 168 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: Zack Martin talked about how he remember restrained his calfo 169 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,319 Speaker 1: late in the season and he said, I don't know 170 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 1: if it's the exact same injury, but you know, sometimes 171 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: it feels great, sometimes it doesn't. You know, I might 172 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: wake up one day and it's great the next day. No, 173 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 1: So they really just want to keep it, you know, 174 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 1: just on a day by day by day by day 175 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: basis quarter mile at a time. Yeah, comparison, Yeah, makes 176 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 1: that's a good way to put in. Stephen Jones also 177 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,679 Speaker 1: talked on the fan about Lyle Collins. He had some 178 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 1: interesting things to say about the starting right tackle. And 179 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: I say that starting right tackle with a little bit 180 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 1: of a question mark around it. What did what did 181 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 1: Steven Jones say specifically? And what did you take from 182 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 1: what his remarks were? Um, I would be paraphrasing. I 183 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 1: think he said something to the effect of, you know, 184 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 1: they they're really excited he's back. Jerry said the same 185 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 1: thing this morning. Basically, he has not played a lot 186 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: of football if you go all the way back to 187 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. So they want to get him into practice 188 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: and see how he responds, and you know, I think 189 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 1: conditioning is a factor there too, and just see where 190 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:30,839 Speaker 1: he's at. I don't get the sense they're they're willing 191 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 1: to just take the job from him, but I think 192 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 1: in the back of their minds they know they have 193 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 1: options if it's not if it doesn't go how they hope. Now, 194 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 1: I don't think they have to say that publicly, but 195 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 1: Terence Steele has played well, so Lyle Collins, you mean 196 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 1: a lot to us, We're gonna get you back in here. 197 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 1: But they do have a guy who's shown he can 198 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 1: step in and play at that position. Is that a possibility, guys, 199 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 1: because of I mean Lyle Collins, like you just said, 200 00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 1: he hasn't played a whole lot. One game in what's 201 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: twenty one games is what he had played. Now twenty 202 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 1: two games, I guess one out of twenty two is 203 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: what it would be. That's not a lot of football 204 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: that he's been playing over the last two seasons, going 205 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,439 Speaker 1: back to twenty nineteen, is there a possibility he is 206 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 1: not the starter on Sunday and maybe just adding a 207 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,560 Speaker 1: layer to that when you talk about options, Yeah, I 208 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 1: think those options have picked, you know, kind of pricked 209 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 1: their ears a little bit too. The fact that maybe 210 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,320 Speaker 1: right now, especially the way that this whole suspension was 211 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 1: handled in the controversy involved in it, that they're like, 212 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 1: they're probably a little pled with him with the way 213 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: that he handled his business off of the field. So 214 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 1: having still there's maybe just a way to let him 215 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: know as well, oh yeah, we have options and to 216 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 1: just basically say, look, you gotta get your stuff together. 217 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: And I appreciate that. There's no he didn't lose it 218 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 1: due to an injury. He lost his position due to 219 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: a suspension, and still has filled in nicely, and so look, 220 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 1: let's not play around this. We won't layout back. But 221 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,839 Speaker 1: still has done a really good job. And I think 222 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 1: the way that Dak is getting the ball out of 223 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 1: his hands has definitely helped his offensive line. And so 224 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 1: continuing that, knowing that these guys have rhythm with each 225 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 1: other for the last five games, do you want to 226 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,320 Speaker 1: interrupt that, But I just believe as a player, Leo 227 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: Collins is leaps and bounds better than what we have 228 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,959 Speaker 1: seen with Still. Yeah, I'll just be reiterating what you 229 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 1: guys have said. Still has done a great job feeling 230 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 1: in Lyle's obviously that dude, that's why he gets paid 231 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:31,960 Speaker 1: like that dude. But to you guys the point, he 232 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 1: hasn't played a lot and so the coaches are not 233 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 1: going to put somebody who is not in condition yet 234 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 1: at that position that is fully responsible to the health 235 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 1: of your quarterback. So if Lyle goes out there, they 236 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 1: put him on the field and he is not in 237 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 1: game shape and he gets tired and not to play 238 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: because he's gas because you did not get him in 239 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,680 Speaker 1: enough shape to play in the game. That player goes 240 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: off and he hits Dak and hurts Dak. Who's that fault? Now, Yes, better, 241 00:12:58,080 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: So they're not going to put him in that position. 242 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 1: So if he doesn't play, it's because of his conditioning 243 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: or risk an injury to him. That too, that too, 244 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 1: because the other part of it was Layton training camp. 245 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 1: He had I think he had multiple stingers. It kind 246 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 1: of or resurface Layton camp. He didn't practice a lot. 247 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,559 Speaker 1: Then he's got these five games, and he was here 248 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: part of the time, not the whole time. During suspension, 249 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 1: he was able to do certain things at the building. 250 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 1: I think it could be as simple as and you 251 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,439 Speaker 1: know what, Sean asked a great Shariff asked a great 252 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 1: question to Jerry to your point, heck about do you 253 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 1: trust Is there any problem there with reliability based on 254 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,199 Speaker 1: the suspension? And Jerry said no, I trust him. So 255 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:37,200 Speaker 1: it may simply just be maybe he doesn't start against Minnesota, 256 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 1: maybe there's this kind of ramp up period and if 257 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 1: they like what they see within a week or so, 258 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 1: maybe it's I don't I forget the next game. We'll 259 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: see yea. They played the Broncos after Minnesota. But kind 260 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 1: of to your point about what Jerry said, that was 261 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 1: really kind of what laid it out for me, and 262 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: it goes along with both of what you guys were saying. 263 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 1: I don't think anything with the suspension is going to 264 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: play into the whole situation with him starting over Terren Steele, 265 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 1: it's whoever's the best suited right tackle to protect Dak 266 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: Prescin this week. Gotta be the best guy out there 267 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: at this moment. And if it is Terrence Steele, it's 268 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 1: gonna be seventy eight out there. But for the most part, 269 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: like you said, Lyell Collins is the guy and seventy 270 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 1: one most likely he's going to be your starter on Sunday. 271 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 1: So Tyren Smith is Tyren Smith, and you don't worry 272 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: about his matchup. And so every week we've been talking 273 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 1: about Terren Steele and his matchup and what we're gonna 274 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 1: do with tight ends to protect him. You're gonna need 275 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 1: your tight ends a lot in this game to get 276 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 1: out and coverage because of what they do so well 277 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 1: for the Vikings at the second level. But he has 278 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 1: a matchup versu Danil Hunter, and Danil Hunter is as 279 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: a dude and he's known for putting pressure on So 280 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 1: Terren Steele, he's going up against the bossas he's gone 281 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: all the names he's seen, So Danil Hunter is just 282 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 1: gonna be another name on that list. And when you 283 00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 1: talk about going what we're gonna do next week, I 284 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 1: think the Broncos have a guy that's pretty good too. Yeah, 285 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: they've got that fifty eight m coming up at the 286 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 1: edge something like that. I've got a couple of guys 287 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 1: actually in them. Yeah. Seven. Uh do you think there 288 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 1: will be a rotation then? Based on that because of 289 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 1: maybe the conditioning from le Collins and then the game 290 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 1: readiness of Terrence Steel and what he's showing you, there's 291 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 1: a chance, there's a chance. You see couple plays, a 292 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 1: couple drives off here. I mean, if I'm the coach, 293 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 1: I want to get him, get him, you know, a 294 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 1: quarter of not a half of reps in in preparation 295 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: for next for next game, So maybe as steal the 296 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: first half and in Collins, depending on what bred the 297 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 1: games at. Hopefully you're up enough where you feel good 298 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 1: enough to say, okay, Collins ahead and get out there. 299 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: Let's get you to get some reps underneath your legs 300 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 1: before you take on that Fifda, dude, have you heard 301 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 1: anything about that? I have not, but I that was 302 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 1: our mail back question today. I don't think it's on 303 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 1: the website yet. And maybe I thought maybe it's a 304 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 1: silly question, like because you don't see offensive lineman rotate, 305 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 1: you see defensive lineman rotate. Is there is that possible? 306 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 1: Or is that is there so much chemistry that's needed 307 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 1: there that you can't really do that? Because the fan 308 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 1: was asked not only about Steele and Lyell, but maybe 309 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 1: McGovern rotating in some too, which I think that's a 310 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 1: lot of pieces to shovel in the course of it. 311 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 1: I think I think, I think steel and columns are 312 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 1: interchangeable in that regard. I think you can afford to 313 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 1: rotate those guys one half in other half in um 314 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 1: because he's playing next to play. But no, I mean 315 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:20,600 Speaker 1: not only that, I mean how about how guys those 316 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 1: guys have played next to each other for a while? Ye, right, 317 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 1: So I mean there's no lack of communication in that regard. 318 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 1: It really comes down to conditioning. That's an interesting point 319 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: because you see it at the collegiate level. I mean, 320 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 1: heckmu and I did a game Saturday where outside of 321 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 1: the center position, all four other offensive line spots would 322 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 1: shift from drive to drive. I mean, it wasn't it 323 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 1: was odd. They played a total of nine offensive lineman 324 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 1: on a regular rotation. I don't encourage that happening, and 325 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 1: nor is it fun to watch. But just based off 326 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 1: of what Mike McCarthy has said, it looks like a 327 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 1: Keystone Cops every play exactly. Who's this guy who's reporting? 328 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 1: Based off of Mike McCarthy and what he has said 329 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,639 Speaker 1: about the continuity of the offensive line and having that 330 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,439 Speaker 1: lack of a revolving door and having that communication. I 331 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,280 Speaker 1: don't know if there would be much of a rotation, 332 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 1: but if there wasn't position to do so, I think 333 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 1: it would be easy to do it, or easier to 334 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 1: do it at right tackle.

We are taking your calls here this morning. 390 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: Eight eight eight, eight, five, five two to nine seven. 391 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 1: We want to hear your thoughts on the Cowboys season 392 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,880 Speaker 1: so far and what you think about the upcoming matchup 393 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:49,440 Speaker 1: against the Minnesota Vikings. We've got Bob from Nashville on 394 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 1: the line. Bob, thanks for calling again. We're on talking Cowboys. Sure, 395 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:58,159 Speaker 1: I fell us how you're doing. What's up? Hey? Um? Thanks? 396 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 1: Great show. Um. Just three things that I wanted to 397 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,919 Speaker 1: run by you guys. I mean, you can answer one question, 398 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 1: but three things that I really see a concern. And 399 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 1: I love the way the Boys are playing right now, 400 00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 1: but penalties. I think we're thirty first in the league 401 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 1: and penalties big plays. And then I'm really still concerned 402 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,480 Speaker 1: about our run defense. And I wanted to see what 403 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:20,919 Speaker 1: you guys thought about that because I think over the 404 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 1: next five six games we're gonna be playing some teams 405 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,800 Speaker 1: that if we continue down that road with these three issues, 406 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 1: I think it's going to buy this in the butt. 407 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 1: But I just want to see what you guys thought 408 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 1: about that. Thanks, I'm a good day. Thanks Bob. I 409 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 1: appreciate your call. Bob with the tough question. Yeah, no, 410 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 1: and I agree on all three of those. I think 411 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: there have been too many penalties. You saw that front 412 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 1: and center in the first half of the New England game, 413 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 1: where shooting yourself in the foot was ultimately what made 414 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 1: that game close. The run defense has it's I think 415 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 1: it might in the eye test it's been better, but 416 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:58,680 Speaker 1: rankings wise, it has not been better. And then, of course, 417 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 1: like you said, the big play, we've known that's been 418 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 1: an issue. But Rob, what do you think about those three? 419 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 1: That was actually something we talked about. I brought it 420 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 1: up at the end of Mick Shots last week was 421 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 1: run defense and the big plays in the passing game 422 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 1: are obvious. They got to cut down on those. Joe 423 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: Witt talked a lot about that last week. But I 424 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: wonder if teams are going to try to test the 425 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:18,679 Speaker 1: Cowboys on the run. The problem is they teams have 426 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 1: been behind so much, they've been beating up on teams 427 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,199 Speaker 1: and they haven't run the ball. The Patriots made an 428 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,199 Speaker 1: effort on like two separate drives. We're just running right 429 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 1: at you, and they had some success and I forget 430 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 1: the number. Heck, I brought it up last week. The 431 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 1: Cowboys have like one hundred and ninety carries so far, 432 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 1: opponents are like one twenty something exactly. They haven't been 433 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: tested as much I do. I'm with Kyle. I think 434 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:43,960 Speaker 1: it's better. But Dalvin Cook's coming, so how do they 435 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:45,959 Speaker 1: how do they handle that? They did a pretty good 436 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 1: job on him last year, so we'll see. Unfortunately, Bob, 437 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 1: you can't be great at everything. And when it comes 438 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 1: to the big plays, big plays come with playing man 439 00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:00,159 Speaker 1: to man. You play man to man coverage and get 440 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 1: pressure up front. You're gonna be you know, you're gonna 441 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 1: be subject to some big plays occasionally, So yes, you 442 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 1: want to cut that down. But the big plays that 443 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: we give up don't put us at a disadvantage to 444 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 1: winning the ball games. It sounds real bad, but that's 445 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 1: the reality of it. So you're gonna give up. You 446 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,440 Speaker 1: give up big plays occasionally to ensure that you play 447 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:20,440 Speaker 1: man and man coverage majority of the time and keep 448 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:23,639 Speaker 1: that pressure on you with your front seven um on 449 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:27,880 Speaker 1: the penalties. That's just guys, got to play smarter, that's guys. 450 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 1: I gotta put the derener away, stop shooting themselves in 451 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 1: the foot. And that's just that's just being intentional about 452 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 1: being you know, fundamentally sound and then doing the things 453 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 1: that you're supposed to do and not to hurt your team. 454 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 1: And that's you know, personal fouls, that's holding, that's all 455 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:44,920 Speaker 1: those things. A lot of that stuff just comes from 456 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 1: being lazy with your mechanics. Um and then what was 457 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,119 Speaker 1: the last portion. The last portion was the run defense. 458 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,199 Speaker 1: The run defense is, yes, I do agree with you, 459 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:53,920 Speaker 1: that's something that we have to show up. But to 460 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 1: Rob's point, you know this particular team, it doesn't kill 461 00:23:56,840 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 1: you as long as you're up long as as long 462 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 1: as you're up, it doesn't kill you. So yes, you 463 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 1: want to stop it, but you have to kind of 464 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 1: pick your poison in this league. Do you want to 465 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 1: stop the run? Do you want to stop the pass? 466 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:10,679 Speaker 1: If we're a team that's built to stop the pass, 467 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:12,879 Speaker 1: then we are obviously going to give up some rushing 468 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:16,120 Speaker 1: yards built by a team rushing against us. Effectively, as 469 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,160 Speaker 1: long as we're ahead, they can't eat away too much 470 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,159 Speaker 1: clock because it's at a disadvantage to them have an 471 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 1: opportunity to win a ballgame. The rushing yards thing is 472 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:26,280 Speaker 1: so intriguing to me because they're fifth in the NFL. 473 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,399 Speaker 1: Think you in terms of rushing yards allowed, that's not 474 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 1: very not bad at all. They've been playing ahead. The 475 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 1: other side of it is in terms of yards per play, 476 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 1: they're eighteenth, so the middle of the road in terms 477 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:40,919 Speaker 1: of yards per play, and that I think it's a 478 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 1: direct indication that teams are going away from the run 479 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: throughout the course of a game because they're trying to 480 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:48,399 Speaker 1: play catch up and they're trying to keep pace with 481 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 1: this offense. But if you're giving up eighty six yards 482 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 1: per game, and like Rob said, it's not like they've 483 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 1: been ultra tested at the moment. You had Sequon Barkley 484 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: for a half, you had or not even a half 485 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:04,879 Speaker 1: at that point, you had Trebba Hubbard, no Christian McCaffrey. 486 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,440 Speaker 1: You're gonna have Dalvin Cook on the horizon. This is 487 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 1: going to be the best test to this point, I 488 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,199 Speaker 1: think for the run defense. So let's go in the 489 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 1: Hotel Todd machine back to twenty twenty. All right, let's 490 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 1: go all right, because right now, if you guys are 491 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:24,480 Speaker 1: forgotten about the Cleveland game where we gave up three 492 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 1: hundred yards No, because because I think that we have 493 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: to go to the comparison so that people can keep 494 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 1: in context where this defense is right now, Hey, the 495 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 1: first couple of games we were we didn't give up 496 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:39,199 Speaker 1: a hundred yard rusher, I think, and you guys are 497 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:40,920 Speaker 1: gonna fact check me on this, but I think the 498 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 1: first hundred yard rushing we gave up was last week. 499 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 1: It was okay. So like, I know, we're nitpicking, and 500 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: we want this defense to be you know, eighty five years. 501 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 1: That's when people pull out when they talk about a 502 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 1: great defense. But still I think that when you look 503 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 1: at what the defense did last year and you do 504 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 1: in a comparison, I think these guys are leaps and 505 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 1: bounds better than what they were. Yes, Dalvin Cook is 506 00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,920 Speaker 1: going to be at Bank of American Stadium waiting on them, 507 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,520 Speaker 1: and he's one of the best in the business. But 508 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 1: I believe our defensive front and our linebackers, and along 509 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 1: with your run curse, I think that should help you 510 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: sleep at night knowing that this defense is doing some 511 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 1: really good things at the front line to stop the run. 512 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:22,159 Speaker 1: Where I think we definitely have to make a improvement 513 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 1: is the big plays in the passing game. I think 514 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,720 Speaker 1: with teams are gashing us. And it is true we're 515 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 1: playing with the lead and they're having to play from behind, 516 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,880 Speaker 1: and maybe that's where those yards are coming from. But 517 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,359 Speaker 1: that's all in all. I think from a rush defensive standpoint, 518 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 1: we have fixed a lot of the cracks that we 519 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 1: had no doubt, no doubt. It's definitely better. But Isaiah's 520 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 1: right too about the big plays, because Trayvon Dix is 521 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:47,440 Speaker 1: gonna match up, he's gonna play man, and there's been 522 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 1: times when he's gonna guess and he's gonna take some 523 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 1: chances and it's it's helped him get turnovers. It will 524 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: also he's gonna give up some plays too, and on 525 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:58,119 Speaker 1: the other side as well, and some of that is 526 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 1: due to playing from behind. I'd like to see how 527 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 1: many times teams have thrown on the Cowboys compared to 528 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:08,120 Speaker 1: other defenses. I mean, that's that's lopsided too, because they've 529 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 1: been in some blowout games, So some of the stats 530 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 1: are skewed. But I think there's definitely room for improvement 531 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 1: on both sides. You have to look at the story 532 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,400 Speaker 1: that the stats tell you. Can't just look at rank 533 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 1: can't say that yeah, please don't look at that mean 534 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,680 Speaker 1: because the reality is yes, heck, our running, our running 535 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 1: defense has improved drastically. However, if we play a game, um, 536 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 1: say we play Tampa again. Say we just run into 537 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,200 Speaker 1: those guys down the road and we have a close 538 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 1: game because we were pretty evenly matched, and we get 539 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 1: into a close, tight knit game, they're gonna run the ball. 540 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:44,120 Speaker 1: They're gonna run the ball, and we really aren't stopping 541 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 1: anybody from running the ball. Teams are just simply abandoning 542 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:50,159 Speaker 1: the run. Yeah. Yeah, So this can come back and 543 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,440 Speaker 1: bite us if we don't sure this up to your point, Bob, 544 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:54,439 Speaker 1: if we don't tighten this up, when we get in 545 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:56,239 Speaker 1: a close game against a team that can, that can 546 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,160 Speaker 1: go head to hear what are scoring wise, and it's 547 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 1: and it's tight end and where it's a one posession game, 548 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,399 Speaker 1: teams will decide, Okay, y'all can't y'all, you guys are 549 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,400 Speaker 1: giving up over four yards are rush We'll just run 550 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,680 Speaker 1: a ball three times straight? No, I and I agree 551 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 1: with that, and I hope to and I hope to 552 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,320 Speaker 1: see Tampa again because because you know what, we're gonna 553 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:15,120 Speaker 1: run on them because we did. Yeah, and so that's 554 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 1: gonna be the difference between seeing them again as hit. 555 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 1: Let's go by the way out of the top five 556 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 1: teams just kind of going along with with a band 557 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:29,199 Speaker 1: or with stopping the run and then giving up the 558 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,680 Speaker 1: big play. Additionally, out of the top five teams and 559 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 1: run defense so far this year, Tampa Bay, Cleveland, New Orleans, Baltimore, Dallas, 560 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 1: that's the five. Only one of those are in the 561 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 1: top twenty in passing defense as well, only one, and 562 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: that's Cleveland. Everybody else in the top five is twenty 563 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 1: third if you're Tampa Bay, twentieth, if you're New Orleans, 564 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 1: twenty ninth if you're Baltimore. And Dallas is sitting in 565 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 1: the twenty eighth in terms of passing yardage allowed. So 566 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 1: there is a balance. It's always going to be there. 567 00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 1: That balances, and especially like what Rob was saying, if 568 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 1: teams are abandoning the run throwing more, that's how that 569 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: number is going to skyrocket as well. All right, we've 570 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 1: got Alex from Arkansas on the line. Alex, how's it going. 571 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 1: It's all good. It's good. Hell y'all doing man, We're good. Alex. 572 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 1: What's heavy? Man? I appreciate I appreciate the job you do. 573 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: Rob P. Hagman. Hey, man, I don't even have a 574 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 1: christ and I'm just gonna be honest with you guys. 575 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 1: I've been in the valley down in the valley with 576 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:32,480 Speaker 1: the Cowboys one and fifteen seasons, and I've been to 577 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 1: the Mountain Top three times in the nineties. Man, I'm 578 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 1: just excited about the prospect of what we could do 579 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 1: because as I hit the nail on the head about everything, 580 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 1: the culture change, the talent, the competition in uh in camp, everything, 581 00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 1: and the only difference in this league that could stop 582 00:29:55,520 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 1: our offense is the Cowboys offense. It's all about exce acution. 583 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 1: It is ridiculous what Killen Moore and Dan Quinn has 584 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 1: done to this team. Man, I just want to wish 585 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 1: you all a blessed day. I love the Cowboys and hey, now, 586 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:13,960 Speaker 1: blessed day in a week.

Out of the closest 588 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 1: thing we could get to get to the Cowboys.

I love that he 594 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 1: kind of talks about just the kind of portrays what 595 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 1: a lot of Cowboys fans are feeling right now, kind 596 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 1: of portrays all of that. And so that's that's always awesome. 597 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 1: We love calls like that. All right, Scott from Wyoming 598 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 1: on the line, Scott, how's he going? You're on talking Cowboys? 599 00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 1: Oh excellent, Good morning, gentlemen, Good morning. I a long 600 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 1: time fan. And one of the one of the cool 601 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 1: things this season is watching Dak take command of the team, 602 00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 1: watch Stabok do it and and on. It's it's a 603 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 1: neat process. H yeah, no doubt. I'm just yeah, Um, 604 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 1: you guys, I think it was like yesterday, Um, you know, 605 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 1: talking about you know, trades and stuff like that. You know, 606 00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 1: at the end of every season, we always are at 607 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 1: the free agents period. We always end up, you know, 608 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 1: we can't afford a lot of guys. So you know, 609 00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:40,800 Speaker 1: I would I would try to keep as many people 610 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 1: as they can afford, you know, looking at that and 611 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 1: all and so um, that's uh, you know, it's that's 612 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 1: definitely always something to think about. Yeah, those are two 613 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 1: very good points. I mean, you talk about Dak Prescott 614 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 1: and the way that he is kind of transitioned into 615 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 1: that leadership standpoint and from a quarterback position, especially at 616 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 1: at the Cowboys. Thanks for the call, Scott, Especially at 617 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. You're the face of the franchise, and not 618 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 1: just a franchise, the franchise in terms of sports and 619 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 1: American sports and even across the world, you are the 620 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 1: face of potentially the sport. And so Dak has really 621 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:19,360 Speaker 1: embraced that, not only with the contract but with his 622 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,520 Speaker 1: play on the field. And I think that's something that 623 00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 1: has definitely been looked at from Cowboys fans. And I'll 624 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:26,600 Speaker 1: get into the trade talk in a minute, because he 625 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 1: did bring up an interesting point there, But what do 626 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 1: you think about what he said about Dak. Yeah, I 627 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,960 Speaker 1: would just say to his point, like, it takes a 628 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 1: certain level of mental toughness to play here and play 629 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 1: this position here, because there's a lot of great that 630 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 1: comes with it and there's a lot of criticism that 631 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: comes with it, probably too much on both sides, depending 632 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 1: on how you how you're doing. So it takes a 633 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 1: certain guy who's able to handle that all that pressure 634 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 1: in addition to the physical talents that you have. And 635 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 1: Dak has that and he showed it just by coming 636 00:32:56,240 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 1: back from the injury last year, how mentally tough he is. Ye, No, 637 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 1: I agree, he did him. I mean, he's he's he's 638 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:04,240 Speaker 1: the guy. I mean, he's the guy for a reason. 639 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously everybody talks about New York when here 640 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 1: talking about quarterbacks in the stress of being you know, 641 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 1: the guy in New York, it's nothing in comparison there 642 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:14,360 Speaker 1: to hear. It just isn't um, I say, their second fiddle. 643 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 1: But Dallas has a lot of stress and he handles 644 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 1: it with grace. So he's he's a great dude for 645 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 1: that one. Is there another place even close? Maybe if 646 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 1: you're a fortune one hundred CEO or something like that. 647 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 1: I mean, that's it's the premier job in the in 648 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 1: the world. Who who wouldn't want to be the quarterback 649 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:33,840 Speaker 1: for the Dallas Cowboys and just the lineage and the 650 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 1: legacy that comes with being a quarterback here, and I 651 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 1: think he was born for the pressure that he's faced. 652 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 1: I don't and I don't know if anyone has ever 653 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:45,080 Speaker 1: taken it so effortlessly as Dak has. I mean the 654 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,960 Speaker 1: way that he takes on the media, the way that 655 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 1: you know, when problems happen, when the with the whole 656 00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 1: Him with Romo deal, he just took it with a 657 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 1: matter of grace and just went about his business the 658 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:58,880 Speaker 1: right way. And so I can appreciate that, and especially 659 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 1: when he makes note of the him commanding the offense, 660 00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 1: and I think that's just him being locking step as 661 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:07,520 Speaker 1: we've mentioned with Kellen Moore and all of those things click, 662 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 1: and it's just good to see him come back from 663 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:12,919 Speaker 1: the ankle injury, get the the contract that he has 664 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 1: and just be the man that he is for this 665 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,800 Speaker 1: team and represented he referenced stallback right off the bat, 666 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:19,719 Speaker 1: and that's that's the thing. It is the lineage, and 667 00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 1: it's what people expect. And you were here in the 668 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,880 Speaker 1: late oughts. I guess when Tony there was a honeymoon 669 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,719 Speaker 1: period for Tony, like in six and oh seven and 670 00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:30,840 Speaker 1: then oh eight, things didn't go so good and a 671 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 1: lot of people turn on him, and so that's that's 672 00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:36,600 Speaker 1: part of this job. Yep. You know, I watched him 673 00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:40,520 Speaker 1: boob Troy Aikman, and I still to this day I 674 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:42,399 Speaker 1: think it was one of the most disrespectful things I've 675 00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 1: ever seen, was was Troy Aikman being booed at home, 676 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 1: and so it's it's a lot and Troy Troy won 677 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 1: him three yep. So there's a lot of pressure. What 678 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,480 Speaker 1: was the toughest thing Tony went through while you were 679 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 1: here that you remember? Is there anything that's stuck out specifically? No? 680 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 1: I think really just meeting the expectations not only of 681 00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:07,000 Speaker 1: the general public, but the organization and your teammates. I 682 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 1: mean that those are all three different standards, you know. 683 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:11,480 Speaker 1: That's that you're trying to meet. This this isn't one 684 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 1: is not one thing that you just add I have 685 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,080 Speaker 1: come in out have to be this guy and that 686 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 1: that works for everybody. That's not the case. You know, 687 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:20,239 Speaker 1: you gotta be you gotta be a leader in the 688 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:22,000 Speaker 1: locker room, so you guys respect you. You got to 689 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:23,880 Speaker 1: be resilient on the field, so guys respect you in 690 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,520 Speaker 1: that regard. So you so you can't lead them. UM, 691 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 1: you have to be a public um, a public figure 692 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 1: to be able to handle all the responsibilities that that 693 00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 1: the organization places on you. UM. And then you have 694 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 1: a responsibility just to be just simply a good guy. 695 00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,239 Speaker 1: You mean he can't go out in public, right, he can't. 696 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:43,319 Speaker 1: He can't do normal stuff.

Second part of his question was on 767 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:56,839 Speaker 1: the fan call. In the prior segment, he was talking 768 00:39:56,880 --> 00:40:00,400 Speaker 1: about the trade conversation we had earlier. There's a lot 769 00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 1: of free agents available, and we mentioned that in the 770 00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 1: conversation about maybe Michael Gallop and who was a potential 771 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:11,879 Speaker 1: trade piece. Is that a possibility to shut down trade 772 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:15,360 Speaker 1: talks because you know, you want to save some of 773 00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 1: that capital later on, and the contracts that you would 774 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:21,520 Speaker 1: be bringing in would potentially upend any sort of cap 775 00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:24,080 Speaker 1: space that you currently do have to bring anybody back 776 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:28,759 Speaker 1: next year. Yeah, I'm sure that's a factor because we 777 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,600 Speaker 1: mentioned the guys that are up after this year and 778 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:33,879 Speaker 1: hex right, I mean the CAP's gonna go up, it's 779 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:36,920 Speaker 1: not gonna go up substantially. I think it's probably closer 780 00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:39,680 Speaker 1: to what it probably should have been last year. Now 781 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:41,400 Speaker 1: that you got at tendance back, the revenue for the 782 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:43,840 Speaker 1: league should definitely go up. But yeah, they got to 783 00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:47,480 Speaker 1: factor that in. You know, there's only so much they 784 00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:49,840 Speaker 1: can budget. Now, maybe maybe you don't care, Maybe you know, 785 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,960 Speaker 1: maybe it's you know, if the situation where you know, 786 00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:55,319 Speaker 1: the NBA they do that as expiring contract, what you're 787 00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:57,759 Speaker 1: going for it, you know, and that's something they could 788 00:40:57,840 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 1: keep in the back of their mind. I'm not thinking 789 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:03,600 Speaker 1: any think specific, but they Jerry said it though yesterday 790 00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:05,040 Speaker 1: they got a lot of guys coming off. I r 791 00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:07,799 Speaker 1: that they're pretty deep in most spots. You know. I 792 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 1: don't know, is there am I missing a position? His 793 00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:15,440 Speaker 1: face right now, I'm just saying, you're this is as 794 00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:18,440 Speaker 1: close as you've been in a very long time. This 795 00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:20,319 Speaker 1: is as close as you've been. You feel good about it. 796 00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:22,480 Speaker 1: You hope that you can continue pushing the envelope the 797 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:24,440 Speaker 1: way you in which you are Um, in the success 798 00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 1: that you're having, You're in a very competitive division, very 799 00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 1: competitive vision, not the NFC. We got all our conference? 800 00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:35,760 Speaker 1: Is that the best way? Sorry? Sorry, a very competitive conference. Um, 801 00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:38,399 Speaker 1: you're gonna need everything you got. You're gonna need everything 802 00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:41,239 Speaker 1: you got. There's there's something to being competent with what 803 00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:45,640 Speaker 1: you have. There's also something too, Let's let's let's double 804 00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:47,520 Speaker 1: down on that. Let's add let's let's add to that, 805 00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:50,600 Speaker 1: how about we secure the bag per se um. And 806 00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:52,600 Speaker 1: I think that the Cowboys are in the best position 807 00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 1: to secure the bag. I think there are players out 808 00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:58,439 Speaker 1: there that teams would be willing to deal. We can't 809 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:00,759 Speaker 1: say names on the show. There's players out there that 810 00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:06,040 Speaker 1: can have a media impact on this team, whether I'm 811 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:09,319 Speaker 1: speaking specifically on defense that I have positions that I'm 812 00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 1: thinking about, and I think that there's a there's a 813 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:13,680 Speaker 1: player or two that we can add that would literally say, 814 00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:18,719 Speaker 1: oh crap. When teams face they were all crap. This 815 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:21,120 Speaker 1: is a problem right, the way that teams feel about 816 00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:23,200 Speaker 1: us on offense right now, right, you're not that feeling 817 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:24,600 Speaker 1: when we step out there when we have gall up 818 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:27,080 Speaker 1: and everybody out there, there's like, oh, we can't stop it. 819 00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:29,040 Speaker 1: Right at this point, we're playing ben, but don't break 820 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:31,080 Speaker 1: because we just can't stop these guys. That's the offense 821 00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:33,319 Speaker 1: we have. That's offense that Kansas City had prior to 822 00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:37,080 Speaker 1: these first seven games, right, um, And that that fear 823 00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:40,520 Speaker 1: that teams have. You want that same fear when they 824 00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:42,919 Speaker 1: have the ball on offense. You want that same fear. 825 00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:45,279 Speaker 1: And I think we're in a position to to have that. 826 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:49,000 Speaker 1: We have very competitive, flying or fast defense. These guys 827 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:51,040 Speaker 1: are doing so much better than what we've had. We 828 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:53,880 Speaker 1: have an ability for our defense, our whole defense, not 829 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:56,920 Speaker 1: just one player, our entire defense to be feared. And 830 00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:59,759 Speaker 1: I think I would, if I was a gym, capitalize 831 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:03,280 Speaker 1: on this opportunity. And I love everything that you guys 832 00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:05,879 Speaker 1: just said. And when I think about where we are 833 00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:11,400 Speaker 1: right now, the saying success leads clues, failure obviously speaks louder. 834 00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:15,359 Speaker 1: And you don't see teams that have been successful over 835 00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:18,279 Speaker 1: the long period of time making those last minute try. 836 00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:21,640 Speaker 1: I have never seen New England do such a thing. 837 00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:24,640 Speaker 1: And you may have more insight on that than I do, 838 00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:26,960 Speaker 1: because I just don't remember them ever saying mid season, 839 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:29,200 Speaker 1: make this trade for this guy when you have a 840 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:32,960 Speaker 1: when you have when Stephen Jones and Will McClay have 841 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:36,759 Speaker 1: done that wonderful job of building the roster, and right now, 842 00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:39,640 Speaker 1: even when you search around the league, you may have 843 00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:43,640 Speaker 1: exactly what you think you're missing on your team. Still 844 00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:48,000 Speaker 1: haven't seen Kelvin Joseph all right, and again real time action, 845 00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:50,080 Speaker 1: we hadn't seen him. But he may be the piece 846 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:53,680 Speaker 1: that you're talking about of having that dominant dB on 847 00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:55,840 Speaker 1: the other side of Trey Von. This we just don't know. 848 00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:58,319 Speaker 1: It's the great unknown, all right. We still haven't got 849 00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:01,560 Speaker 1: tanked back. So if we have Tank in that same 850 00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 1: rotation with our defensive lineup, that changes the way that 851 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:07,800 Speaker 1: quarterbacks are having to get back there and look because 852 00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:11,200 Speaker 1: hey boy, ninety is coming and ninety four is coming 853 00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:13,480 Speaker 1: and you have Michael barreling down on you as well. 854 00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:16,920 Speaker 1: So again, I just feel as though from a team aspect, 855 00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:19,879 Speaker 1: this team has been built up the right way. And 856 00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:23,239 Speaker 1: if you feel like you're close to getting your your 857 00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:25,839 Speaker 1: team is built up so well and you're getting close 858 00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:28,239 Speaker 1: to say, hey man, we are we should legitimate super 859 00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:31,200 Speaker 1: Bowl contenders. That's because your front office has done everything 860 00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:34,560 Speaker 1: the right way blue drafting. So I mean I don't 861 00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:37,319 Speaker 1: disagree that if you have an opportunity to go out there, 862 00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:39,680 Speaker 1: because of the equity that you have and all everything 863 00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:42,399 Speaker 1: that you alluded to yesterday, why not do it if 864 00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:44,440 Speaker 1: you can, if you can, if you can do it. 865 00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:46,759 Speaker 1: But I just feel like this team is right right 866 00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:48,920 Speaker 1: now and everything that you may be missing may be 867 00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:52,279 Speaker 1: on ir and ready to come back. The only I 868 00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:56,960 Speaker 1: guess instances I can think of of having the top 869 00:44:57,160 --> 00:44:59,560 Speaker 1: end teams going to the Super Bowl the last couple 870 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:02,000 Speaker 1: of years making trades to try and make it happen, 871 00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 1: because you're right, it doesn't happen a lot. Kansas City 872 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:06,040 Speaker 1: hasn't done it in each of the last two years, 873 00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:09,680 Speaker 1: at least made a deadline esque type deal. Tampa Bay 874 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 1: made a decent one yes or last year, traded a 875 00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:16,120 Speaker 1: sixth round pick to the Jets for Steve mcclindon, that 876 00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:19,319 Speaker 1: nose tackle who actually played a decent role in their run. 877 00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:22,840 Speaker 1: That the rest of what they did was basically signing 878 00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:27,640 Speaker 1: It was not even off season, but just Antonio Brown here, 879 00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:30,520 Speaker 1: Leonard Fournette there. I mean, they made some of those 880 00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:33,120 Speaker 1: moves throughout the year that kind of got him to 881 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:35,600 Speaker 1: that point. But you're right, doesn't happen a whole lot. 882 00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:38,080 Speaker 1: It's not like baseball where you see guys just going 883 00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:41,000 Speaker 1: out and trading everybody at the deadline and emptying the 884 00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:44,080 Speaker 1: farm system, emptying their depth to try and go get 885 00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:46,320 Speaker 1: a guy. It doesn't happen as much in the NFL, 886 00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:49,840 Speaker 1: but the Cowboys have seen it happen to their success 887 00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:52,279 Speaker 1: in the past, So Cowboys fans are certainly going to 888 00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:53,960 Speaker 1: rely on that. When they've done it, it's kind of 889 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:57,200 Speaker 1: been out of desperation, like they've made in season trades, 890 00:45:57,280 --> 00:45:59,840 Speaker 1: but it was, you know, they they were struggling on defense. 891 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:02,719 Speaker 1: They get Michael Bennett, they don't have a number one 892 00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:05,719 Speaker 1: wide receiver, so they go get Amari Cooper. H Romo 893 00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:09,520 Speaker 1: gets hurt, so they get Matt Castle so and that 894 00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:13,000 Speaker 1: didn't work out. But I'm just saying, like they haven't. 895 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:15,359 Speaker 1: They haven't done that to your point, it doesn't mean 896 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:17,840 Speaker 1: they shouldn't. If something comes up that that that fits on, 897 00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:21,839 Speaker 1: you know, would you guys, okay, so make a move 898 00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:25,000 Speaker 1: or sit still? Go sit still? I'm making a move. 899 00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:27,839 Speaker 1: Sit still. I think I would sit still as well. 900 00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:30,879 Speaker 1: I like it, though it depends on what's out there. 901 00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:34,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna take it. If there's a position, 902 00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:36,560 Speaker 1: I'm going to take it. If you tell me there 903 00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:38,960 Speaker 1: is a Pro Bowl corner and a Pro Bowl defense. 904 00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:41,000 Speaker 1: That's what he's talking. That's exactly what he's talking. And 905 00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:44,000 Speaker 1: you can get him for nothing. I'm not saying nothing. 906 00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:46,120 Speaker 1: Oh I'm saying I'm saying nothing. I'm saying, what what 907 00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:48,680 Speaker 1: are you going after this year? Super Bowl? Super Bowl? 908 00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:51,000 Speaker 1: Super Bowl? Sure you have it. So let's let's talk 909 00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:53,799 Speaker 1: about the cornerback position. Right. We have to have two 910 00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:56,640 Speaker 1: cornerbacks that we're paying ten million dollars to collectively. Right, 911 00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:58,760 Speaker 1: we have another cornerback. We have another couple of cornerbacks 912 00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:00,800 Speaker 1: that we drafted. Right, they are gonna be waiting in 913 00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:03,839 Speaker 1: the wings. Right, So those guys, the reality is those 914 00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:06,440 Speaker 1: guys aren't ready, Right, one of them isn't ready. One 915 00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:08,640 Speaker 1: of them we don't know yet. Um, so those guys 916 00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:10,680 Speaker 1: aren't ready to make a huge impact on this team 917 00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:13,520 Speaker 1: this year for this year's run. Right, they're there. They 918 00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:15,759 Speaker 1: can add to what you got, but more sol and 919 00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:18,240 Speaker 1: special teams and all that. If you have an opportunity 920 00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:21,520 Speaker 1: to go, get you a complete dog and put him 921 00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:23,680 Speaker 1: across from them from Diggs you're saying that you wouldn't 922 00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:26,520 Speaker 1: do that for one year, but I would. But I 923 00:47:26,560 --> 00:47:28,359 Speaker 1: don't want to give up a ton to get him. No, 924 00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:29,680 Speaker 1: I'm not saying the time. I'm not saying the time, 925 00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:31,759 Speaker 1: but we have excess that we're not going to be 926 00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 1: able to retain all of No I and I've and 927 00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:37,680 Speaker 1: I've even said that I agree with you to that 928 00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:40,360 Speaker 1: degree that because of what you have and you're so 929 00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 1: you have so much depth and positions, it would behoove 930 00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:45,319 Speaker 1: you if you if that's there for you to take 931 00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:47,799 Speaker 1: advantage of it. I'm just saying that right now, Hell, 932 00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:52,279 Speaker 1: you got everything. It feels good. It feel good. You 933 00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:54,000 Speaker 1: know what I like to I like to know even 934 00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:55,399 Speaker 1: though I got a half ten game and I got 935 00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:56,759 Speaker 1: three quarters of a ten, if I'm about to hit 936 00:47:56,760 --> 00:47:58,440 Speaker 1: a road trade, guess where I'm going. I'm going to 937 00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:00,959 Speaker 1: the gas station. First gas station, but I'm wanted to gas. 938 00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:02,799 Speaker 1: I know I can get there on three quarters, But 939 00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:04,960 Speaker 1: guess what if I can go on four tank? Why not? 940 00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:10,640 Speaker 1: Says the man with an electric car. Oh, that's a 941 00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:13,520 Speaker 1: great play.
