1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:02,719 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones joining us sound the Buyer Safety dot Com hotline, 2 00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:04,960 Speaker 1: brought to you by for Good morning. Jerry, how are 3 00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:08,000 Speaker 1: you hey, guys? Good morning, And that's that's a little 4 00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:10,959 Speaker 1: bit harsh. Also on it, I like Mike and I 5 00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:15,760 Speaker 1: really do, and so it wasn't too him as much 6 00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:19,360 Speaker 1: as it was just the situation frustration, I guess a 7 00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:22,560 Speaker 1: little bit. But tip, I enjoy this time talking with 8 00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,120 Speaker 1: you guys, and I enjoy talking with Mike. And we're 9 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 1: still going to get him banned from the media party. 10 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 1: Hopefully no more malibu from Mike. Jerry, how am I've 11 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:37,840 Speaker 1: broken his glass? He can still come to that, all right, Jerry, 12 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:41,880 Speaker 1: let's talk about this. When we felt much better about 13 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:45,639 Speaker 1: the offense, all these headlines about offensive wrinkles, and we 14 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 1: saw play action, We saw a little fast pace, We 15 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 1: saw Dak accurate down the field. How did you feel 16 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 1: about the offense and some of the wrinkles that were discussed. Well, 17 00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 1: you know, I thought we had some things work and 18 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 1: timely work at a timely basis during the game. That's critical. 19 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 1: I saw several good things. You know, this game has 20 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:19,320 Speaker 1: got so many reasons to be concerned or be critical 21 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:21,959 Speaker 1: that when you get some good ones, I do like 22 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: to dwell on them. I like for our team to 23 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 1: dwell on the positives. I really like what Pavian Austin did, 24 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 1: for instance, out there the other day. Sure we'd like 25 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 1: to have that catching hand zone, and we'd all love 26 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,279 Speaker 1: for him to have it had been great play. But boys, 27 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:43,200 Speaker 1: he played some good football. And he's leading, he's blocking, 28 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: he's using his speed. He's basically got great hands. I 29 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 1: know you can't help, but notice how when he catches 30 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 1: a pun it's just as natural as breathing for him. 31 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 1: So anyway, just to point somebody out that the games 32 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 1: have showed me that we've got some upside there Gallup 33 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 1: as a receiver, I'm dwelling on the receivers a little 34 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 1: bit start things off here, but I'm a lot more 35 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: encouraged than than I guess the average fan is receivers. 36 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: We love to seeing Daco downfield. He was accurate, Like 37 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: Sean said, this was was this as aggressive and as 38 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 1: accurate downfield as you've seen him be in the NFL? Uh? 39 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 1: You know, I guess yes, I'll just answer it that way. 40 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 1: But I sure did like the way that he was 41 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 1: zoned in there and how he was throwing the ball. 42 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 1: But uh, you know, when I think of Dak, I 43 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 1: just think of the player that's going to somehow figure 44 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 1: out a way to get it done. As to how 45 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,239 Speaker 1: his team is playing, how the opponent is playing, just 46 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 1: just make just get it done. And of course the 47 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: play that I will always have of Dak as that 48 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 1: when when he took the ball that was knocked out 49 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: of his hand, went back and calmly picked it up 50 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: and got rid of it, had the presence of mind 51 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,639 Speaker 1: and know how important that play is. And to me, 52 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: that's uh, that's an aspect of him that he carries 53 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: with him owning off the field, his preparation, his ability 54 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:21,920 Speaker 1: to work and get ready, all of that we're going 55 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: to benefit from. I just love him as a quarterback. 56 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,839 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones joining us here every Tuesday at eight thirty 57 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 1: was sewn and r J on the Home of the Cowboys. 58 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: Player of the game. I mean, just look to be 59 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: Zeke Elliot that that was a warrior effort Jerry as 60 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 1: he was physical. He did it on the ground, he 61 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: did it through the air. I looked like he got 62 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: a little bit banged up. But do you expect you 63 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: do you want that type of workload for Zeke. Is 64 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: that what it's going to take or would you guys 65 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: like to take a little bit less off his plate 66 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 1: With how much he did Sunday, Well, I think that 67 00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 1: the answer would be I do want that kind of 68 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: workload for him. He's healthy, he's very physical. Uh, you 69 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: take more when you're contesting Zeke than you give out. 70 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: In other words, he wins most those physical confrontations. He 71 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,479 Speaker 1: wins them, and that takes his toll on the defense. 72 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:27,040 Speaker 1: Yet not only that, it inspires his teammates, it inspires 73 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 1: to the team. Football is physical, and so we've got 74 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:38,479 Speaker 1: us a really outstanding player that plays football by its definition. 75 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: And then he's got the finase and got the speed 76 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 1: to make the plays and is just instinctive. So we 77 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 1: should use him. Yes, we've got him and we should 78 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: use him, and he should really make it possible for 79 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 1: a lot of players around him to have some big 80 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,840 Speaker 1: plays as well. Jerry, how is he doing physically? Steven 81 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,359 Speaker 1: said he was a little bit banged up. He's going 82 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 1: to be good to go, we believe for the Texans. Yes, 83 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 1: I do, and he is banged up, but not to 84 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 1: the extent relatively speaking on Monday, we go through all 85 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,479 Speaker 1: the players that have any issues as to first and 86 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: foremost practice and then again the ultimant question game availability, 87 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: but that is not an issue apparently with him wrote 88 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: to do Sunday's toll on him, Jerry, and years passed 89 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 1: when Shawn Lee went out, things seem to crumble defensively, 90 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,919 Speaker 1: but there was optimism going into this one from the 91 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: fan base, and you guys, with Vander esh getting in 92 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 1: there as the first round pick and the defense getting 93 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 1: after Matt Stafford, did it feel different. We're having Shawn 94 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 1: out and not everything and still being able to survive 95 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 1: out there. Well, we still missed him, but we didn't 96 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 1: miss him as much as we have in years passed 97 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 1: when he hadn't been there. And the good news is 98 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 1: we're going to get him back and in the process 99 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 1: we're going to have vandresh with a lot more snaps. 100 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: You're seeing Jalen Smith just become just just just find 101 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: and use that reservoir talent that he's got and that 102 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 1: gives including Sean, that gives us three outstanding of defenders 103 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: that can play the round our pass and basically each 104 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: individuals is an intimidation to some degree for the quarterback 105 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: now we played. We played because of his experience now 106 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,919 Speaker 1: and his talent that he's always head and Matt Stafford, 107 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:50,600 Speaker 1: I don't recall ever having played a tougher player too. 108 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 1: With today's rules that favors the passing game, I don't 109 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 1: know that we've had a bigger challenge. And boy, those 110 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: plays they were making to keep those third Dan changing, 111 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: those were phenomenal plays and I don't think we could 112 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: have defended him any better two or three times there. 113 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 1: So we we met a farmer, little opponent and the 114 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 1: guys you talk about Vandreish Smith and really played a 115 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 1: good game. Jerry Brett Maher was terrific again. And there 116 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: was you know, quite a bit when when the cuts 117 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: came down and we noticed that Dan Belly wasn't on 118 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: the team. There was quite a bit of fans that 119 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: were kind of I don't say outrage, but scratching their 120 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: heads about this. Does his performance kind of make you, guys, 121 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 1: you know, feel a little vindicated in the decision you made. Well, 122 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 1: I know this that right before the kick, I think 123 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: Stephen punch Man said, you know, it's South America for us. 124 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 1: He misses this thing, We're going to have to leave, 125 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 1: and so there was no doubt about it. And I've 126 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 1: never been so happy to see him a ball go through. 127 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 1: And am I glad I wasn't no one kicking it 128 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 1: because I had shriveled up to nothing sitting up there 129 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: with whatever the spin or the fortitude that I might 130 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: have had to make that kick. I'm really proud for him, 131 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: and I'm proud for us. You can't get a better 132 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: try out than that one right there. We thought your 133 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 1: knees gave out after he hit it. And then you're 134 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 1: walking to the and then you walk to the locker 135 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: room saying, well, y'all were worried about something. So the 136 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: entire Metal Plex is holding their breath for Brett. Well, 137 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: listen to the game is one of ups and elation 138 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: and then complete dejection. The elation comes far fewer times 139 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: than the dejection. And boy, when you get one of those, 140 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 1: when you get one of those great feelings that have 141 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: that happened, then my advice is and I to savor 142 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,079 Speaker 1: the moment and do anything it makes you feel good 143 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 1: that makes sense, because those are hard to find in football. 144 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,719 Speaker 1: Jerry how Is how is Byron Jones doing this? He 145 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,079 Speaker 1: shifts back and forth corner. Coming out of college, y'all 146 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: need him in safety, You'll put him back to corner. 147 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 1: Different statistic sites have him as the number one corner 148 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: in football. It looked like they were going to Cheetah, 149 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: who played well, just had some unlucky catches. But stand 150 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,719 Speaker 1: away from Byron, I means he playing as spectacular as 151 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:23,839 Speaker 1: it looks. Yeah, he played college football at Connecticut, and 152 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 1: it wasn't like he was going against those receivers at 153 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: and Matt Stafford every day at Connecticut. But the same 154 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: token he had phenomenal, has phenomenal physical talent, speed leaping ability, 155 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 1: and no one's any smarter than Byron, and so he 156 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 1: sees he gets it. The thing has opened up for him, 157 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 1: and he's got some outstanding coaching that if anything it 158 00:09:55,840 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: Richard is about is making you aware of the inhibition 159 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: inside you. And so all of that is real out there, 160 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 1: especially at that position because Jone and Island and Insue 161 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 1: and the play and so Byron has really stepped up. 162 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: He's benefiting from his years of acclamation here the last 163 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 1: two going on three I think, or four, three or four. 164 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: But the bottom line is that he's and was always 165 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 1: capable of taking all the input and putting it together 166 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:36,199 Speaker 1: at some point in time, and hopefully he's doing that 167 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,559 Speaker 1: and that really makes it special. We've got four or 168 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,839 Speaker 1: five really special football players out there on the defensive 169 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 1: side of the ball. Jerry Jones here, I'm one, O 170 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 1: five three the fan. How are things looking for Jeff 171 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,680 Speaker 1: Heath as he got shaken up in that game? We 172 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: have him as likely to play and it was more 173 00:10:55,200 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 1: of a stinger and he is very capable of playing 174 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: through that thing around. I don't want to slide it 175 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 1: in any way, but we'll see how to bos. We've 176 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: got a long way to go until we play Sunday, 177 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: so right now we're thinking he'll play. And Jerry, is 178 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 1: it looking like at least another week out for Sean? 179 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: That's yes, that's very that's the way to figure that. 180 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: And I don't want to be one way or the 181 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 1: other two speculative about one week out, but it would 182 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: surprise me to see Sean back this week. Now you 183 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: get a boost with David Irving back in the building 184 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,960 Speaker 1: this week. How how has he been doing and how 185 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 1: slow is it going to take for Dave to get 186 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 1: reacclimated and can you give us a picture where he 187 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 1: is with his return, well, he's he's worked hard physically 188 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 1: since he had his time away, and we all know 189 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 1: what he's capable of and on the field, and it's 190 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 1: just really neat that we've got help on the way 191 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:13,199 Speaker 1: here in the form of David joined us and possibly 192 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 1: getting shown back in the future. So we've got a 193 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 1: long way to go here as a season and as 194 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: a team. But when you've got the future that includes 195 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,439 Speaker 1: David Irvin and you haven't had it, then that should 196 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: help make us even even more efficient and more productive 197 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:40,200 Speaker 1: on defense. But specifically about David, I don't know. We'll 198 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:44,079 Speaker 1: just have to see. We'll see feeling how he reacts 199 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 1: to the grind of regular practices and then hopefully get 200 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: him on the field. Jerry, I know, and I want 201 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 1: to bring up bad memories, but I know that the 202 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: the Houston loss in two thousand and two was one 203 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 1: of your more disappointing moments as owner of this team. 204 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: I think you mentioned you cried after that one. Uh. 205 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 1: Does there a little bit extra though for this series 206 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 1: in this game, considering where you guys are standings wise 207 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: and needing to win, plus also the rivalry, Well, Houston's 208 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: one of my favorite places in the country. No one 209 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 1: worked or stood in a harder on the table to 210 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:26,079 Speaker 1: have the Houston Texas return to Houston. As a matter 211 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,560 Speaker 1: of fact, I actually had the rights to the name 212 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:35,840 Speaker 1: Texans when Houston came and Bob McNair wanted to that name, 213 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 1: and I agreed to stand down. And that'd be great 214 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 1: if for him to call the Texans. He's one of 215 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 1: the favorite people of mine in the NFL, Bob McNair, 216 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 1: So all of that is a big plus. And it 217 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 1: is like, oh, Home Week when we go to Houston 218 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 1: and we have so many thousands of fans there, so 219 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 1: I really we're going out there and playing a football game. 220 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 1: What I didn't enjoy about it in two L two 221 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:09,200 Speaker 1: I was just so sad that we'd lost that opening 222 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:14,560 Speaker 1: game for Houston. And consequently, it's like a playing a 223 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 1: relative or a brother or somebody like that. You want 224 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 1: to beat them as bad as you do, almost worse 225 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 1: than anybody. So I'd like to go down there and 226 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 1: come out there to win for all those reasons, but 227 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 1: mainly because it'd give us three and two. And I 228 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 1: have a lot of respect for them. I have a 229 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 1: lot of respect for that quarterback and we all know 230 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 1: they've got some defensive players that are really phenomenal. So 231 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 1: you know it's it's just going to be another game 232 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 1: that we're going to have to be ready to go 233 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 1: right down to the war. You didn't make Bob McNair 234 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 1: trade or give up anything for his team name. You 235 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 1: just let him have and stood down like that. Absolutely, 236 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 1: I look back at some of the dumb things I've 237 00:14:56,120 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 1: done some week week sister, things I've done, and I'm 238 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 1: just I'm basically weak. Try to have he caught you 239 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: in a week moment. Last thing, Jerry Tony Romo's football 240 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 1: life was on the other night. We thought it was 241 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 1: fantastic and in it you normally keep the stuff secret 242 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 1: until you announce it. You said that, Terry Tony, excuse me, 243 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 1: we'll be going into the Ring of honor. Can you 244 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 1: just elaborate on that? And when did you decide that, Hey, 245 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: this is something that has to happen. Tony's got to 246 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 1: go up there with the rest of the name. Well, 247 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 1: first of all, you've heard me say this. If I 248 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:37,080 Speaker 1: had listen, my number one disappointment since owning the Cowboys 249 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 1: it would be not to have gotten Tony Romo to 250 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: a super Bowl. He's deserving of it. He was that 251 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 1: caliber or quarterback. But Tony was magnificent for this franchise 252 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 1: during his career, and he elevated the franchise. And that's 253 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 1: what the Ring of Honor is about. A player that 254 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 1: certainly he's got to be a great player in my mind, 255 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 1: but they've gon to do something that pushes the stack, 256 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 1: takes a step up for the franchise. And while there 257 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 1: wasn't a super Bowl there, I think he's one of 258 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 1: the best at his position. He was unique, he is 259 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: unique now as he's as quick and as articulate as 260 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 1: anybody I've ever been around. So the bottom line is 261 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: the answer is that, yes, he'll be in the Ring 262 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,440 Speaker 1: of Honnor. Now the detail will follow. Was there any 263 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: part of you, Jerry, that tried to talk him out 264 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: of stepping away and getting back on the field, whether 265 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 1: it was for you guys or someone else that you 266 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 1: still wanted him to end it with the hallmark ending, 267 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: or you said take the broadcast job, it's too good. 268 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 1: I will just say it was never going to be 269 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: anybody else. We'll leave it at that. But it was 270 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 1: never going to be anybody else. I can say that excactly. 271 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 1: He was never going to play anyplace yet, Jerry Jones 272 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,359 Speaker 1: right here with Shawn and RJ every Tuesday. Congrats on 273 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,880 Speaker 1: the win, have a fantastic week, and get it done 274 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 1: down there in Houston. Bad guys and George been with you. 275 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 1: Thank you, Jerry,
