1
00:00:02,200 --> 00:00:02,679
Speaker 1: The following.

2
00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:04,720
Speaker 2: He is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and

3
00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:14,280
Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. Cowboys This is Cowboys storyline

4
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 2: presented by Gillette, the official shave of the Dallas Cowboys.

5
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 1: Here's Nick Eatman, Hello and welcome to Cowboys storyline presented

6
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:49,000
Speaker 1: by Gillette. It's Friday, December the fifth. It doesn't really

7
00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:52,160
Speaker 1: matter what day it is. It's the day after Cowboys

8
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 1: take a big loss in Detroit, forty four to thirty.

9
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 1: Crazy game, and I kind of fuck he would that's

10
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 1: it would be a crazy game. You didn't know how

11
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:06,839
Speaker 1: it would turn out. Man, I fell for it. I'll

12
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: I fell for it. I thought, oh, I thought the

13
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 1: Lions had injuries. I thought Saint Brown's foot was coming off.

14
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 1: I thought they didn't have any offensive alignment. Okay, I

15
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 1: don't know what that was. That was another trick play

16
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 1: by Dan Campbell and the Lions. They got us on

17
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: that one, and its turned out the Cowboys were the

18
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 1: ones that were down one two receivers. We'll talk about that. Obviously.

19
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 1: CD had a great game until he got injured, and

20
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 1: then they needed someone to step up. Ryan Illinois did,

21
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: George Pickens did not, and uh, you know that's that's

22
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 1: obviously something that we'll discuss. It's been talked about a

23
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 1: lot so far. With the Cowboys lose forty four to thirty,

24
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 1: what does that do for the playoff chances? Well, I

25
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 1: know it hurts it pretty bad. I mean, they didn't

26
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 1: have any even for error, and they had a lot

27
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 1: of errors. Uh six, six and one. It's got to

28
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,279
Speaker 1: keep playing. Four games left happens. But you know, obviously

29
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: it's an uphill battle at this point, but you're not eliminated.

30
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 1: And so that they'll keep they'll keep fighting and on

31
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 1: that one. And so I really hope we don't talk

32
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,959
Speaker 1: about any event in April, but some of you might

33
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 1: might want to. But I think the next big event

34
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 1: is the one against I guess Minnesota in ten days.

35
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 1: They need ten days. You know, I'm not gonna say that.

36
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 1: You know, I'm not gonna throw out any excuses. There's

37
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 1: no excuses. But this team's played what four games in

38
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 1: eighteen days, and it kind of looked like it. You know,

39
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 1: it's firstly on defense. The defense was the worst that

40
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 1: we've seen them play since since some of the changes.

41
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 1: Uh again, not an excuse, it just they just looked

42
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: a little bit like it's hired team and and the

43
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 1: But the Lions have played pretty much the same schedule

44
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: than they didn't. They were a lot more energized, So

45
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: give them credit for that. All right, eight and eight

46
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 1: A five, five, two two nine seven. Let's talk about it. Chris,

47
00:02:54,360 --> 00:03:00,360
Speaker 1: Saratoga Springs, New York is first, Chris, what's.

48
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,639
Speaker 3: Not too much? That was a tough game last night.

49
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,359
Speaker 3: You don't win many. You don't win many NFL games

50
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 3: when they turned the ball over multiple times and have

51
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 3: so many self inflicted wounds. I think last night we

52
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 3: got to the Pittsburgh George Pickens, not the Cowboys. George Pickens.

53
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 3: Defense didn't play great, offense didn't play great. The tackles,

54
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,359
Speaker 3: for me, a lot of lookout blocks. Those are our

55
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,920
Speaker 3: offensive tackles need help. They didn't get much help, and

56
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 3: it showed with the pressure they gave up. So we

57
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:30,079
Speaker 3: need to I think this seasons it's a long way

58
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 3: long road to try to make the playoffs. I doubt

59
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 3: we're gonna make it. Mike, we should focus on these

60
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 3: offensive tackles in the draft next year, for sure. One

61
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 3: positive I had is my voice all NOOI another great

62
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 3: game by him, very proud of that kid. He works hard.

63
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 3: I just I wish, you know, George would have stepped

64
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 3: up a little bit more. Other than that, again, we

65
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 3: need to play better. There's there's no if, stands or

66
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 3: butts about it. We got to play better, period. And

67
00:03:58,680 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 3: that's that's really all I got.

68
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, Chris, appreciate it.

69
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 4: You know.

70
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: I know, it's a long night for everybody, you know.

71
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 1: I mean now, especially my guy, h Chris in the back.

72
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 1: I mean, man, he's going to do this, what's seven

73
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 1: times today? And got a I know it was four

74
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 1: am we got off the plane last night, and uh

75
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 1: and and but by the time you get home, who knows,

76
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:24,799
Speaker 1: who knows what time it is, and then we're getting

77
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: up for you know, taking kids to school and all that.

78
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 1: I say all that because I'm talking about Chris and

79
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 1: Saratoga Springs and our next caller too. It's a long

80
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 1: night for everybody, you know. I mean, it's whether or

81
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 1: not you go to sleep at midnight one whatever it is.

82
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 1: You know, games like that are tough, especially when you

83
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,160
Speaker 1: put so much into it, and so you can hear

84
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 1: the frustration and Chris's voice right there, and you just

85
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 1: got to play better, and you wish those guys would

86
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 1: have stepped up. And you know, I said, I'm not

87
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,159
Speaker 1: going to get into the next year and then you

88
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 1: don't have to. But we all know there's a big

89
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 1: decision the Cowboys have to make regard George Pickens and

90
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 1: a game like this does it Does it affect you

91
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:10,279
Speaker 1: and not just the way Pickens played? You know, do

92
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 1: you have any other young receivers that are making the

93
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 1: league minimum that look like they, if they give an opportunity,

94
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 1: they can be a really, really big player. You know,

95
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,839
Speaker 1: does Illinois change some things there? I don't know, but

96
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 1: you know, I don't like, I'm not giving up on

97
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 1: anybody or anything. Yeah, you Pickens is you've You've got,

98
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 1: You've got some Sometimes he's one way and the other

99
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 1: times he's other. We haven't really seen this a lot,

100
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 1: but that they just needed him to really step up.

101
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: They needed him to make some big plays, and it

102
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 1: just was off. You know, he was open at times,

103
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 1: the routes just weren't crisp. The the slant that's just

104
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:57,600
Speaker 1: been killing teams all years wasn't hitting the same, the

105
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 1: deep ball that he kind of almost looks like he

106
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 1: kind of tried to get out of the way, like

107
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 1: like it good to hit him. I'm sorry, I'm watching

108
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:12,479
Speaker 1: this offensive pass interference penalty on Ferguson and I I'm

109
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,040
Speaker 1: a little distracted. I'm gonna go to Dylan Northport, Florida.

110
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:16,720
Speaker 1: I bet he has something to say on that. Dylan,

111
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 1: what's up?

112
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 5: Hey?

113
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 1: What's up?

114
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 3: Man?

115
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 6: How you doing m.

116
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 1: Good and taking a drink getting a little energy this morning?

117
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 6: I got you.

118
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 7: Yeah, that wasn't pass interference.

119
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 8: That was a garbage call.

120
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 7: But who else's garbage?

121
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 9: Man?

122
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 3: Was the kick team?

123
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:34,840
Speaker 7: And this isn't talk to about nearly enough, dude. The

124
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,599
Speaker 7: Lions were starting at like the forty fifty yard line

125
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 7: every drive and it was disgusting. It was a guy

126
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 7: looked like scoon Maker returning kicks and he's getting all

127
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,599
Speaker 7: the way up there every single kick, and it's like

128
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:48,559
Speaker 7: they need twenty yards in there and field goal range,

129
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 7: over and over and over and then on the flip side.

130
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,360
Speaker 7: You know, I don't know what's up with Turpin. I

131
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 7: don't know if it's just not getting blocked up right

132
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:57,240
Speaker 7: or what, but it's you know, he jogs up count

133
00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:58,720
Speaker 7: to where the guys are blocking and just kind of

134
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:01,280
Speaker 7: gets tackled, and you know that's that's that's kind of

135
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 7: getting frustrating to watch the defensively corners are getting lit up.

136
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 7: I would have liked to have seen them play more,

137
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 7: you know, press coverage, if they were going to play

138
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 7: so much man just because amen Ra apparently had a

139
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 7: hurt leg, but I couldn't tell. I don't know if

140
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 7: there was some funny business going on with the injury report,

141
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 7: some gamesman the ship or what. But he looked totally fine.

142
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 7: But I mean, supposedly he's got a bad leg. Jamison's

143
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 7: not a physical receiver, So I would have liked to

144
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 7: see them play closer and at least challenge these guys.

145
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 7: You can't play eight yards off and just let them

146
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 7: on crossing routes all night long. You can't cover fifty

147
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 7: three yards of the field man man without playing press.

148
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 7: It's just not possible. And then you know the last thing,

149
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 7: man shot. He's getting a lot of heath kicking field goals.

150
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 7: I would have kicked every single field goal that he kicked.

151
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 7: I was totally fine with it.

152
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 10: I agree with what you said.

153
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 7: I saw your tweet about just before halftime there about

154
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 7: keeping the offense that to try to maybe take some

155
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 7: more time off. But because of those field goals you kicked,

156
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 7: you were in the game, yeah till the very end, right,

157
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 7: So I'm taking the points there. I don't have any

158
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 7: issues with that. But that's all I got, Ran, I

159
00:07:58,720 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 7: have a good one.

160
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you. I'll address that part too, because I was.

161
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say he did, but I mean that really

162
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 1: was bothersome to me right before the half. And I

163
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 1: think some of the some of the responses didn't really

164
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: get what I was saying. And I agree with you, Dylan.

165
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 1: I think I would have kicked every field goal as well.

166
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 1: Had no issues with kicking any of the field goals

167
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 1: when they you know, when they did. The problem I

168
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 1: had was right before the half and it's it's third

169
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:37,319
Speaker 1: down and long and Ferguson makes a play and kind

170
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 1: of gets you know, ten yards or so and gets

171
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,679
Speaker 1: it to fourth and four with about fifty five seconds

172
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: to go, clock running, and I'm looking at Dan Campbell,

173
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 1: and Dan Campbell is looking across the field, and as

174
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 1: soon as Aubrey comes onto the field, he calls the

175
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,959
Speaker 1: time out. That is where I thought the Cowboys made

176
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: a huge mistake. I'm not saying that you have to

177
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 1: go for it. But what I would do, You keep

178
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 1: dak on the field, don't change the offense, get up

179
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 1: there like you're gonna call a play, and you could

180
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,199
Speaker 1: call it if you want it. If you like the look,

181
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 1: go for it. Probably what's gonna happen. He's not gonna

182
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: call a time out because he doesn't want to help

183
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 1: you get a touchdown before the half, so he's waiting

184
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:19,839
Speaker 1: and waiting. You get up there and you wait, and

185
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 1: you bark the signals and all that, and they don't jump.

186
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 1: Then you call your time out with about twenty eight seconds,

187
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,199
Speaker 1: you kick the field goal, you kick it off. Maybe

188
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 1: you just boot this one out of the end zone

189
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 1: and you probably don't give up a field goal there.

190
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 1: But that's that's right there. It's just that was my

191
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 1: issue right before the half, just a little clock management

192
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 1: of just just bleeding the clock a little bit, and

193
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 1: that I thought that was a big mistake there. Obviously,

194
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:48,839
Speaker 1: they lost by fourteen, so that's not I mean, it's

195
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 1: not just about a field goal. But you know, if

196
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:54,680
Speaker 1: you would have told me they're gonna throw up an

197
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 1: interception right in the first play of the third quarter

198
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,280
Speaker 1: and give up a touchdown, go down eighteen and then

199
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,760
Speaker 1: I guess none of that really matters. But you know,

200
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: all right, let's let's keep going. Uh, who's next? Kevin

201
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 1: in New Jersey? Kevin?

202
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:11,200
Speaker 6: Hey? Nick?

203
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 1: Hey, how are you doing.

204
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 3: I'm doing okay.

205
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 5: Uh.

206
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,960
Speaker 10: I was following up on last week's call where I

207
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 10: was pleading for the Cowboys to show up last night.

208
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 10: So I guess, you know, last year when I came

209
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 10: down to the game with the family and they only

210
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 10: scored nine points, that was frustrating. So I was hoping

211
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:31,560
Speaker 10: for something.

212
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:31,680
Speaker 6: More than that.

213
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,479
Speaker 10: In a way, I guess you could say there's an improvement,

214
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 10: but you know, the the glaring issue to me, And

215
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 10: I'm calling because I was curious about your thoughts. I'm

216
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 10: trying to wrap my head around what's going on on

217
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 10: the defense. You know, I'm looking at it from a

218
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 10: fans perspective. I don't know all the details you know,

219
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 10: behind it, but it just seems like a really kind

220
00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:00,840
Speaker 10: of boring conservative you know, zones scheme, and you know

221
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 10: it's reflected by maybe the lack of turnovers.

222
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:05,319
Speaker 3: And you know, I.

223
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 10: Called a couple of weeks ago, I was mentioned it

224
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 10: to you about you know how I thought maybe glass

225
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 10: half full was Logan Wilson coming in to kind of

226
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,440
Speaker 10: take some of the pressure off of Overshown as he's

227
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 10: coming back from injury. But I'm curious about your thoughts.

228
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,560
Speaker 10: What is with the linebacker rotation.

229
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 3: I've always felt.

230
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 10: Like like when you have good players and they're solid,

231
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,839
Speaker 10: like keep them out there. But for the Cowboys, it's

232
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,679
Speaker 10: like every series they rotate the linebackers, and I feel

233
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 10: like maybe that hurts them. Maybe they're not I mean,

234
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 10: I guess it's resting them to a degree, but it

235
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 10: also feels like they're maybe getting out of the flow

236
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:40,839
Speaker 10: of the game. I mean, I don't want to single

237
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 10: anybody out in particular, but I feel like they're really

238
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,520
Speaker 10: struggling in a linebacker position, especially in the middle of

239
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,040
Speaker 10: the field. There's all these crossing routes and they're really

240
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 10: taking advantage of us. You know, I know, you know

241
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 10: the lines are a good team, right, so, like you know, offensively,

242
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:58,080
Speaker 10: they have weapons. But can you share your thoughts on

243
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,760
Speaker 10: maybe what you think about that linebacker rotation, why they're

244
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 10: doing it, and and maybe how they can possibly fix it, because,

245
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 10: like I said, I just think the defensive scheme is

246
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 10: just hey, just old or tired?

247
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,079
Speaker 1: Hey, Kevin, Hey, have you ever heard that phrase when

248
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:16,200
Speaker 1: they say, uh, if you have two quarterbacks, uh, it

249
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 1: means you have none?

250
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 10: You know, something like that.

251
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:20,559
Speaker 1: You know, like when the team says that, like we

252
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 1: got two guys or we got three quarterback it means

253
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 1: you really don't have any. I wonder if that's sort

254
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 1: of the neighborhood of what we're talking about here with linebackers.

255
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 1: You know, you got five? Are any of them good?

256
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:38,359
Speaker 1: You know? And I say that with everybody loves overshown.

257
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: You know, is he is he ready to play?

258
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 5: You know?

259
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:44,319
Speaker 1: Is he ready to kind of be that guy he

260
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 1: was last year? And I think he is. I think

261
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 1: he's your best one. But I just it's like, who

262
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 1: do you Who do you put in here? Who do

263
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,719
Speaker 1: you say? Because nobody is It's like, you see, I've

264
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 1: seen basketball teams like that where thanks for the call, Kevin.

265
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 1: We're going to keep the lines going. I appreciate your call.

266
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 1: And it was a really good question. It's like when

267
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 1: you when you have some of the basketball teams that

268
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 1: I followed, when there's seven or eight, nine guys, but

269
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 1: you don't know who the best guys are, and so

270
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 1: you're like, what about this combination, what about with this guy?

271
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 1: What if? What if these guys play together. I feel

272
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,199
Speaker 1: like that's sort of happening a little bit at linebacker.

273
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 1: I don't think there's a huge difference between Logan Wilson

274
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 1: and Shamar James or Overshown and Leah foul and Kenneth Murray.

275
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 1: You know, every once in a while they all do

276
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,319
Speaker 1: something and then they'll also do something. You're like, I

277
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 1: don't know about that play. It does feel like Murray's

278
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 1: the one that's that's out of position a lot. He

279
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,559
Speaker 1: leads the team in tackles, but that doesn't necessarily mean anything.

280
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 1: He means he's out there the most, but it's not

281
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 1: a it's not a strong position. It's not there's there's

282
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 1: just no other way around it. So, uh, you know,

283
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 1: maybe Wilson needs some more time here, maybe him An

284
00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 1: Overshown together, But that's always a tricky balance of depth

285
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 1: and keeping them fresh and also out of the flow

286
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 1: of the game. I thought that's a that's a great point.

287
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:10,960
Speaker 1: It's it's the way with running backs a lot, you know.

288
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,719
Speaker 1: I mean, you want these guys that want this one

289
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 1: two punch, but at the same time is it is

290
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 1: it really taking him out of rhythm? Let me go

291
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 1: back to this really might go back to Dylan's call.

292
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 1: He was talking about the corners and the crossing routes.

293
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 1: The Lions have an unbelievable advantage, and I don't I mean,

294
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 1: I don't know why they haven't had some success here

295
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:41,440
Speaker 1: or more success this year. But Jamiir Gibbs is an

296
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 1: absolute problem because I think, I mean, obviously the most

297
00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,040
Speaker 1: underrated part of his game is is the way that

298
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 1: he catches the ball out of the backfield, but the

299
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 1: way that they lined him up. And I talked to

300
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 1: a defensive coach before the game and he said that

301
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 1: he was worried about as a receiver because they don't

302
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 1: just line him up and then rotating him back. They

303
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,840
Speaker 1: line him up out there and now are you gonna

304
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 1: put a linebacker out there? You're gonna put safety? It

305
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 1: just it just changes the covers. I hate to compare

306
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 1: him to Hall of Famer because you know, he's still

307
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 1: early in his career, but but when the Rams had

308
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 1: Marshall Fulk and they could use him like that, where

309
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 1: sometimes he just would run a route, it just changes

310
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 1: everything of what you're trying to do. He's a he's

311
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 1: a problem. And uh man, he was a good player,

312
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: he was. He was great last night. I'm ay And Napa,

313
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 1: California is next.

314
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 3: Hey, good morning, Nick.

315
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 5: How are you good?

316
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 1: How are you?

317
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 5: I'm great, man, I'm great, great in life, but not

318
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 5: so good in football. Man. I really think that. Yeah,

319
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:58,000
Speaker 5: you're hitting on a lot of points. Man. You know,

320
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 5: the linebacker play was was not good. It hasn't been good.

321
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 5: Our secondary was bad. I wish we would have took

322
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 5: a page out of what the Lions were doing. And

323
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 5: like you know they I know that they tend to

324
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 5: press press the receivers, you know, and play a lot

325
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 5: of man up. I wish we would have did a

326
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 5: little bit more of that because we didn't have the

327
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 5: room to allow guys just to kind of run freely.

328
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 5: Like it seemed like all of our dbs were in

329
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 5: a chase mode and even our linebackers like the whole night.

330
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 1: And I mean, you know, but let me let me

331
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 1: cut you off by that, and and I'm not disagreeing

332
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:37,280
Speaker 1: with your point, but I'm just just remember this. The Cowboys.

333
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 1: They don't how many sacks did they get on Cowboys one?

334
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 1: Maybe I know, I know one for sure, and the

335
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 1: one guy their best pass rusher. They only got one sack,

336
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 1: and the guy that got the sack is the guy

337
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 1: that the Lions didn't want. So the point that I'm

338
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 1: trying to make is the Lions could play more press

339
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,880
Speaker 1: coverage because they've got Aiden Hutchinson. They've got some guys

340
00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 1: that can get home quickly. The cow always have James Houston,

341
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 1: who the Lions didn't want. That's their best pass rusher,

342
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,160
Speaker 1: especially with Clowney out, you know what I mean. So

343
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 1: so it's tougher to play up there when when you don't,

344
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 1: you don't think you guys can get home, especially on

345
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 1: the outside.

346
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:12,920
Speaker 3: Yeah.

347
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, But in the same instance, like they were going

348
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:17,920
Speaker 5: to play that no matter what, and they just rolled

349
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 5: the safety over the top of Pickens like all night,

350
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,919
Speaker 5: even when CD was in there, that safety still played

351
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,879
Speaker 5: over the top and it was like there was you know,

352
00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 5: the Cowboys offensively didn't adjust from that, and I just

353
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,400
Speaker 5: didn't see why we didn't try to do more of that. Obviously,

354
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,919
Speaker 5: Gibbs was a problem man, like when he was in

355
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:38,399
Speaker 5: the backfield when he went out, you know, as a

356
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 5: as a receiver, like we weren't going to get away

357
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 5: from that, you know, and then overall there was just

358
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:46,639
Speaker 5: self inflicted wounds. Like you know, Ferguson didn't have his

359
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:50,639
Speaker 5: best game. You know, obviously they attacked Rebel. You know,

360
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 5: they knew what they wanted to do there. You know,

361
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,680
Speaker 5: it was some growing pains. Just I think you hit

362
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,480
Speaker 5: right earlier when you said they looked like a tire team,

363
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,120
Speaker 5: because that's that's what it looked like. They looked tired.

364
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,919
Speaker 5: They weren't mentally sharp. It was a lot of self

365
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 5: inflicted wounds, and it was like it wasn't like they

366
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 5: were out of the game. They were in the game

367
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 5: the whole time. Just they can continue to kick themselves

368
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:17,120
Speaker 5: when they were, you know, geting some momentum. So man,

369
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,480
Speaker 5: I'm not upset about it. I mean I'm upset about it,

370
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,680
Speaker 5: but in the long term, I'm still just like, let's play.

371
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 5: It's it's gonna be fun no matter what happens. Went

372
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,719
Speaker 5: out and don't make the playoffs. It's cool, like you know,

373
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:33,080
Speaker 5: like just want to see what happens again. I see

374
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 5: what the future is. And you know, they got to

375
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,280
Speaker 5: figure some things out with Pickings and for sure, Soornstein

376
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,159
Speaker 5: got to go the coach for special teams. He was

377
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:44,680
Speaker 5: the coach, the defensive coordinator out here with the Niners

378
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 5: last year, and I watched him up close. He's he's

379
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 5: not good. He doesn't coach up any of his players.

380
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:56,200
Speaker 5: Like the one kick right before half Aubrey barely made

381
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 5: that because he and it was like the most easiest kick,

382
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 5: and he like goes up there like you know, he's

383
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 5: like he's just just gonna make it automatically. And I

384
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,720
Speaker 5: just don't think Sorenson's getting the best out of the guys.

385
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 6: You know.

386
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 5: Turpin seems like he's regressing. He's scared to return the

387
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 5: ball or something where he's always wanting to call fair

388
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:19,080
Speaker 5: fair catch. Then real life realizes he has rooms. So

389
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 5: all right, I get rid of him. But yeah, I mean,

390
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:22,440
Speaker 5: let's go Cowboys.

391
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:24,800
Speaker 1: Hey, all right, I appreciate it. All right, Let's let's

392
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:29,399
Speaker 1: try to keep it moving. A lot of stuff there. Yeah, Ferguson,

393
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 1: I'm watching I keep watching this this play on you know,

394
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 1: NFL Network shows it, and it sounds like that Brian

395
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:41,360
Speaker 1: branch On, that play suffered in a torn achilles on

396
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:46,160
Speaker 1: that play, that safety, but that let's go to that

397
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 1: that play right there that that fourth down or third

398
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:53,439
Speaker 1: down call. The thing that gets me about that is

399
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 1: that two officials through the flag. Okay, one from the

400
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,439
Speaker 1: other side, one from this side. You can't tell me

401
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,399
Speaker 1: that both of them, well I know that, we know

402
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,560
Speaker 1: both of them didn't say offensive pass interference or they

403
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:10,199
Speaker 1: would have talked about it for two seconds. Instead, they

404
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 1: talked about it for about a minute. So to me,

405
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 1: and as weird as this sounds, why not just say

406
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:23,639
Speaker 1: offensive interference and we have defensive interference? Those files OFFSET

407
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 1: will replay the down because at that point it just

408
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,840
Speaker 1: comes down to seniority. Who's the loudest in the room,

409
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,360
Speaker 1: who can, you know, dominate the conversation, because what one

410
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,679
Speaker 1: guy saw it as defensive interference one guy and then

411
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:40,160
Speaker 1: the rest of the world. And then another guy saw

412
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 1: it as offensive interference and that guy's conversation one. I mean,

413
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 1: that's it's ridiculous. I mean, he if you go back

414
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:53,439
Speaker 1: and watch the play, the linebacker racked Ferguson. That's what happened.

415
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,200
Speaker 1: He got beat and he racked him and then he's

416
00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:59,119
Speaker 1: trying to swim through that and they call that that

417
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:03,640
Speaker 1: it's absly. That's the worst call. That I've seen all

418
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 1: season long for when the Cowboys games, that is the

419
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:11,200
Speaker 1: worst call. The second one is probably probably went against

420
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,199
Speaker 1: the other team. Maybe it might have been one of

421
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 1: the Chiefs offensive interference.

422
00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:15,000
Speaker 9: You know.

423
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,360
Speaker 1: Maybe I just don't like that play when Worthy got

424
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 1: called for it against the Cowboys. I didn't like it

425
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 1: when Pickens got called for it in the last night either.

426
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:27,919
Speaker 1: I thought that was that was a bad call. I

427
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 1: may talked about special teams with Sorensen. It's it's not good.

428
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 1: I mean it's weird because if you if your kicker

429
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:39,760
Speaker 1: sets NFL records, it's the first one to ever make,

430
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,960
Speaker 1: you know, three kicks of fifty five yards or more.

431
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 1: He just casually hits a sixty three yarder and and

432
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,360
Speaker 1: then you know, makes five field goals and Sam Williams

433
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 1: blocks the field goal and you have a bad special

434
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 1: teams night. I mean, that's hard to do if you're

435
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 1: going to do this over here. But that's what happened.

436
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,280
Speaker 1: That outweighed all the good stuff that you saw over here.

437
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 1: They can't they couldn't star up this guy. And I mean, sorry,

438
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 1: he doesn't pass the eye test for a kick returner,

439
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 1: but he certainly, you know, he was awesome and just

440
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 1: to the point where man Aubrey just kick it out,

441
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:13,679
Speaker 1: then kick it out of the in zone and go

442
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 1: to the thirty five if that's what it's going to be,

443
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 1: you know. So anyways, I just got to break here

444
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:20,560

00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,479

480
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 15: Everybody how you doing, Nick, How are you? I'm good, brother.

481
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 15: You know, I don't want to overreact to this game

482
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:32,400
Speaker 15: as far as what I think that this team is,

483
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:36,120
Speaker 15: but it's really hard not to face the realities, which

484
00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:38,320
Speaker 15: may be that we might not make the playoffs.

485
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 10: Now.

486
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,439
Speaker 15: I do think that championship teams are allowed to have

487
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:44,439
Speaker 15: a bad game, that they're allowed to come out flat.

488
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 15: But unfortunately, you know, because of the way the season started,

489
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:50,639
Speaker 15: we didn't we don't have that luxury, you know, to

490
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 15: have a bad game. We didn't have that luxury to

491
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,240
Speaker 15: have like a little bit of a hiccup. And you know,

492
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:58,240
Speaker 15: I just think that that was just seemed to like

493
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 15: really really like to prove how.

494
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:01,200
Speaker 9: Regilient we are.

495
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 15: And I think that we don't have to do that.

496
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:05,520
Speaker 15: Like I wish we could have just come out and

497
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:08,520
Speaker 15: not have to face the uh, the self inflicted wounds

498
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 15: and stuff.

499
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:09,199
Speaker 16: You know.

500
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 15: It's just it's just a little bit unfortunate. But regardless,

501
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 15: I'm gonna try to keep it positive as I always

502
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 15: do it. I mean, I'm still excited about how this

503
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,200
Speaker 15: team responds. I do think that they have the ability

504
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 15: to win out. I never have been and never will

505
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:23,399
Speaker 15: be the type of fan, which is not wrong, but

506
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 15: I'm personally I'm not the type of fan that wants

507
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,399
Speaker 15: to lose out for a pick or anything like that. Like,

508
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 15: I want to see how they respond. I want to

509
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 15: see how they continue to build, you know, getting people

510
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:35,480
Speaker 15: back from injuries. Biggs is gonna come back. Let's see

511
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 15: see what happens next.

512
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 6: Man.

513
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 15: So I'm not hanging hanging my hat up, you know

514
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:40,399
Speaker 15: what I mean. I'm not ready to say that the

515
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 15: season is lost or you know.

516
00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:42,480
Speaker 9: Tuck my tail.

517
00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:44,639
Speaker 15: I'm ready to see how this team bounces back, man.

518
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,120
Speaker 15: And I'm excited and hopefully the things fall the way

519
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 15: that they need to and we can still make a push.

520
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 15: But if not, like I do, I do believe in momentum,

521
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 15: and I do believe in confidence, and I think that

522
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 15: Dallas has the ability to build both of those going forward. Man,

523
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:56,239
Speaker 15: I appreciate you to take my call.

524
00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,400
Speaker 1: I appreciate that, Serge. It's a good, good call. And

525
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 1: you know, and and we kind of we kind of

526
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,639
Speaker 1: knew that this was gonna happen, right, I mean, I

527
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:07,680
Speaker 1: don't think anyone I didn't think they were going to

528
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:09,920
Speaker 1: just run the table. Uh, that's just not the way

529
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 1: the NFL works. Uh, and they're not They're not good

530
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 1: enough to do that. I mean, you know, let's they've

531
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 1: they've won some games, they once a games. Got some

532
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 1: students coming through here and I guess they're on field

533
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,560
Speaker 1: trip or whatever. So this guy right here, we need

534
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:28,439
Speaker 1: to sign him up. He needs to play and we

535
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:32,480
Speaker 1: need him on the on the defensive line.

536
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:32,840
Speaker 4: No.

537
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:37,240
Speaker 1: We I didn't think that they would run the table.

538
00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:41,399
Speaker 1: I really didn't. But you know, let's not let's not

539
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:45,359
Speaker 1: forget that. You know, Jake Ferguson fumbled on the final

540
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:47,439
Speaker 1: drive against the Eagles that went out of bounced the

541
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 1: cowb would go kick a field goal, you know, I

542
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:53,520
Speaker 1: mean Pickings fumbled the ball and Turpin recovered it and

543
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:55,920
Speaker 1: the Chiefs, you know, they kicked a field goal and

544
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,120
Speaker 1: they were up by ten. The Chiefs didn't have enough

545
00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 1: time to come back. You know, last night Ferguson fumbled,

546
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:07,399
Speaker 1: they recovered it, they go score touchdown. Pickens fumbled, Tyler

547
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,840
Speaker 1: Smith picks it up and I thought Tyler Smith's going

548
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 1: to score a touchdown. But you know they've been playing

549
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:16,440
Speaker 1: this way and the ball bounces it one way, bounces

550
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:18,920
Speaker 1: the other, and it did not bounce their way. And

551
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 1: so my point is is when you play that way,

552
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,639
Speaker 1: you're not gonna win seventh straight. You're just not so.

553
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:30,400
Speaker 1: But I woke up, you know, I don't know hour

554
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:32,879
Speaker 1: after I went to sleep, but I haven't had a

555
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,119
Speaker 1: different opinion about it. Was it was a little frustrated

556
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:37,399
Speaker 1: with the team and this, you know, just knowing what

557
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,359
Speaker 1: the loss meant and all that. But I had to

558
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:43,240
Speaker 1: kind of stop and say, you know, twenty seven to nine,

559
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 1: it's twenty seven to nine, and then next thing you know,

560
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:47,879
Speaker 1: it's thirty to twenty seven. And as I wrote in

561
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:52,399
Speaker 1: my column if you've read that, I thought the game

562
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:57,480
Speaker 1: was just an example of this whole season. I mean,

563
00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 1: that game was pretty much how you would discribe this

564
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:06,240
Speaker 1: season same way. Started out, it's okay, and then then

565
00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 1: it's bad, and then he's this is looking terrible. Is

566
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:11,720
Speaker 1: not looking good at all? Oh man, you know they're

567
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:13,880
Speaker 1: gonna get blown out, they're gonna have a bad draft

568
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:16,880
Speaker 1: pick and all that, and then they suck you back

569
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:19,520
Speaker 1: in and I'm like, well, hold on, now watch this.

570
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 1: Boom boom boom boom. Wait wait wait, is there a

571
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,520
Speaker 1: chance their chance they're gonna come back and win? Is

572
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:26,320
Speaker 1: there a chance they're going to go make the playoffs.

573
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:30,399
Speaker 1: No they're not, you know. And the only thing about

574
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,159
Speaker 1: that game that's not going to be the way you

575
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,000
Speaker 1: described twenty twenty five is the way Pickens played. Because

576
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,000
Speaker 1: Pickens is gonna have a better season that he's a

577
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 1: he's a Pro Bowl player. He's gonna have better season

578
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 1: than that then than what he played in that game.

579
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:46,640
Speaker 1: But all right, let's move on here. We got uh

580
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:50,280
Speaker 1: Rob in Vegas. Hey, Nick, Hey, what's up.

581
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:58,320
Speaker 8: Tough night? Yeah, it sucked. Unfortunately, We've seen this before

582
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 8: in these type of games, playoff atmosphere games. We always

583
00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,320
Speaker 8: we lose the turnover battle and a penalty battle, and

584
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 8: it kills us. And that's what killed us last night.

585
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 8: I you know, as bad as the kick return coverage

586
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 8: was and all that, it was the turnovers and the

587
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 8: penalties that that penalty that Ferguson had hands to the

588
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 8: face where we would had first in goal because Pickings

589
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 8: got the pass at the farance that was nullified, and

590
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 8: and then Pickings doing some dumb stuff. You just can't

591
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 8: overcome it. We're not we're a good team. We're we're

592
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 8: not a great team. I what sucks is we're wasting

593
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:48,520
Speaker 8: another really good year from our quarterback, just like we

594
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 8: did with Romo. It's it's we've had these.

595
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 5: You know.

596
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,480
Speaker 8: It's going to come to an end eventually, and it

597
00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 8: just sucks that we're wasting it. You know what else

598
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:02,080
Speaker 8: do we need? Got two number one wide receivers. You

599
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:06,520
Speaker 8: had a running game. Unfortunately we improved the defense. Okay,

600
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,200
Speaker 8: we bought guys in to stop to run. Our past

601
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 8: defense is bad. We have nobody that could pressure the

602
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 8: quarterback consistently. I don't care what they pay Land. He's

603
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 8: not an outside corner. You made the mistake of paying

604
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 8: him as an outside corner. But he's not. He's not good.

605
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,600
Speaker 8: He's an average outside guy, but he's a really good

606
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 8: slot guy and that's where he needs to play. Over shown.

607
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:33,720
Speaker 8: You know, he's not the same player. Hopefully he gets there,

608
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:35,600
Speaker 8: but right now he's not. And I agree with that

609
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 8: of the call up rotating linebackers is like what you said,

610
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:40,360
Speaker 8: If you're rotating guys, it's because you don't have one.

611
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:47,480
Speaker 8: And to talk about pickings being in almost sixty I

612
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 8: grew up in the era of there was no free agency,

613
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:55,280
Speaker 8: so these players had nowhere to go, So you know,

614
00:30:55,360 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 8: you could maybe you know, controlled more or whatever whatever,

615
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 8: And I always felt I really didn't care what they

616
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,560
Speaker 8: did off the field. You know, some of the greats,

617
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 8: we all know who they are, weren't the greatest off

618
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 8: the field, but Comes Sundaday were the best. And that's

619
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:16,440
Speaker 8: how I believe. But I kind of changed my stance

620
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:20,840
Speaker 8: on that because of the amount of money and the

621
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 8: salary cap. So if we're going to look at Pickens,

622
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,480
Speaker 8: you have to really say to yourself, are you going

623
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:32,360
Speaker 8: to pay him thirty five million dollars a year? And

624
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:36,240
Speaker 8: now you have to worry about him like this because

625
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:41,680
Speaker 8: Lamb you don't have to worry. We got lucky with him.

626
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 5: You know.

627
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:48,040
Speaker 8: And now with Flownoy playing really good, and don't get

628
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 8: me wrong, he's probably playing really good because Pickens and

629
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,720
Speaker 8: Lamb are on the field. Pickets is there. So I've

630
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 8: seen that story before where the third guy moves up

631
00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:02,440
Speaker 8: to the second spot and oh, how come he's not

632
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 8: as good? So I don't want to get rid of Pickens,

633
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 8: don't get me wrong, but I'm sure you got to

634
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:10,960
Speaker 8: be leary of the money just because of the salary cap,

635
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,240
Speaker 8: just because of how much it eats up. I don't

636
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 8: care how much he makes.

637
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:16,040
Speaker 3: It's this.

638
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 8: It's so much like I don't begrudge these guys getting paid,

639
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 8: but they get paid. But it has to hit because

640
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:27,920
Speaker 8: if it doesn't hit, you're screwed. So that's my only concerned.

641
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 8: Let's see what he's got four games. He's got four

642
00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:34,360
Speaker 8: games to really turn. Listen, he had to beg it.

643
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,360
Speaker 8: I think he hurt his shoulder on the first play.

644
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 8: If you saw the way he fell, he had his

645
00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 8: shoulder like tinned back, and he knew Pickens. It's on

646
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:45,920
Speaker 8: the like the first play of the game or the

647
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:49,320
Speaker 8: first pass that they threw to him. He fell weird,

648
00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:52,920
Speaker 8: and if you watch the replay, his arm instead of

649
00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 8: putting his hand out was tucked behind him. His shoulder

650
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,200
Speaker 8: took the full brunt and you could see him shaking

651
00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 8: it out. So you know, I don't know, I don't want.

652
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:06,560
Speaker 8: It just sucked. It sucks that it's you know obviously, all.

653
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 1: Right, Rob, I appreciate it. Thanks for the call. You're right,

654
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:13,920
Speaker 1: and let's talk about Pickings little more. It is a

655
00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 1: very challenging decision that they've got to make, and I

656
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:19,600
Speaker 1: think what's going to happen because when I ask people

657
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,280
Speaker 1: about it that are kind of in the know. They

658
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:26,600
Speaker 1: just kind of shrug, like, franchise them. I mean, it's

659
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:28,760
Speaker 1: not not that hard. Just franchise them. I mean, that's

660
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 1: that's the that's the response. So I think that is

661
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:37,200
Speaker 1: that's the answer there for them is And honestly, it

662
00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:43,520
Speaker 1: might be the best answer because because the here, here's

663
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:47,320
Speaker 1: what do we know? Is he a great player? Yes?

664
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:51,400
Speaker 1: Is he? Is he worthy of that kind of money

665
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 1: the way he's playing this year? Yes? And does he

666
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 1: help this offense?

667
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:56,440
Speaker 3: Yeah?

668
00:33:56,480 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 1: He does. Are you scared to give him that kind

669
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:01,920
Speaker 1: of money and that kind of commitment?

670
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 17: Yes?

671
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:05,280
Speaker 1: So that's what the franchise tag does.

672
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:06,400
Speaker 3: It.

673
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:09,439
Speaker 1: It's a lot of money. It's not thirty five, it'll

674
00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:12,319
Speaker 1: probably twenty seven, twenty eight, but it's one year and

675
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:16,040
Speaker 1: then we'll see how he does on it. See Holly performs,

676
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:19,040
Speaker 1: holl he acts. I mean, he's missing meetings, he's being

677
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 1: late to things, he's missing a bus, he's getting fined

678
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,239
Speaker 1: all over the place. And that's only a salary of

679
00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:26,719
Speaker 1: about one point five million or one three I don't

680
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:28,319
Speaker 1: know what a salary is, but it's not that much.

681
00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:32,440
Speaker 1: But that's who you're getting right now. So give him

682
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:34,960
Speaker 1: that much money and see see what happens. If it's

683
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:38,319
Speaker 1: a train wreck all year long, then you know, you

684
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:40,279
Speaker 1: have to figure out if it's worth it. Just like

685
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:42,960
Speaker 1: Rob was saying on the calls, there's a lot of

686
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,799
Speaker 1: great players that were it was worth it. You know,

687
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:49,160
Speaker 1: he drives you crazy, but it was worth it. And

688
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 1: another thing about the pick and CD thing, Let's not

689
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:53,759
Speaker 1: forget two weeks ago we were sitting here and going

690
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,320
Speaker 1: wrong with CD. You can't catch the ball, maybe you

691
00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 1: trade CD. I mean that's the way it goes. You

692
00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:01,920
Speaker 1: knew the defenses weren't going to continue to play pickings

693
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:05,640
Speaker 1: this way, and they haven't. They've changed. And what happened. Oh,

694
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:07,879
Speaker 1: CD's gone off the last two weeks and he's went

695
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:10,200
Speaker 1: over one hundred yards. I mean, CD was was looking

696
00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:12,400
Speaker 1: at a two hundred yard game. He had one hundred

697
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 1: and what twenty yards and he got hurt in the

698
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:18,319
Speaker 1: second quarter like he he went for two twenty seven

699
00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 1: on the Lions like two years ago, and he was

700
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:23,320
Speaker 1: probably looking at that again, all of those flinoy yards

701
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:25,279
Speaker 1: probably would have gone to CD, or most of them.

702
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:27,759
Speaker 1: I mean he really he was having a monster game.

703
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:29,360
Speaker 1: So then what would have happened the next week is

704
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:31,319
Speaker 1: say CD doesn't get hurt. What happened to the next week?

705
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:33,799
Speaker 1: Oh well, out of the vikings, Well, Miking's gonna shift

706
00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 1: it over and they're gonna cover CD again. I guess

707
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:38,360
Speaker 1: what Pickens goes. I mean, that's the problem that they have.

708
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:40,799
Speaker 1: Some weeks, it's gonna be this. Some week, it's gonna

709
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,839
Speaker 1: be that. This one certainly wasn't Pickens night. But you know,

710
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:48,600
Speaker 1: start start cheating back over to CD and see what happens.

711
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:51,279
Speaker 1: That's the beauty of what you have. And you know,

712
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:53,960
Speaker 1: it just it just wasn't his night. But you know,

713
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,840
Speaker 1: I think I think we've seen that he's going to

714
00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,280
Speaker 1: be that kind of player. All Right, Anthony and Miami,

715
00:35:59,480 --> 00:35:59,880
Speaker 1: what's up?

716
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:01,719
Speaker 9: I didn't need to quick what's up?

717
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:02,720
Speaker 1: My guy?

718
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:05,799
Speaker 9: Hey, I'm pretty good man. I just wanted to call

719
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:13,680
Speaker 9: in and say this much. I'm a jetic callers and

720
00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:16,120
Speaker 9: I am. I was with a badge of honor. So

721
00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:18,279
Speaker 9: I agree with Starge to sue, I don't agree that

722
00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 9: we're not going to make it because I did protect

723
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,759
Speaker 9: ten sixtion one and I'm not changing. So apparently I

724
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,120
Speaker 9: may not have had them winning this game. When you

725
00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,799
Speaker 9: give thirty twenty seven. I understand people are mad, but

726
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:29,919
Speaker 9: it was thirty twenty seven, So that mean you didn't

727
00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 9: lay down. So I'm hearing people garbage. I'm hearing people this.

728
00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:33,920
Speaker 3: I'm hearing people that.

729
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,000
Speaker 9: No, it was thirty twenty seven, so that's not a

730
00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:38,920
Speaker 9: lack of effort, you know what I'm saying. It might

731
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:40,719
Speaker 9: not be the result we didn't want. So I'm going

732
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,080
Speaker 9: with that now. On the CD thing, he just had

733
00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:45,760
Speaker 9: eighteen hundred yards a couple of years ago without GP.

734
00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:49,640
Speaker 9: If I got to allocate anything over twenty eight million

735
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:52,399
Speaker 9: me personally, and he probably do to him. No, I'm

736
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:54,480
Speaker 9: fixing other things. I'm fixing my I gotta get some

737
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:56,640
Speaker 9: tackle and I got to work on my defense that

738
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:57,759
Speaker 9: back seven back there.

739
00:36:58,040 --> 00:36:58,759
Speaker 5: So that's just me.

740
00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:01,440
Speaker 9: But anyway, I say positive, man six one.

741
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:06,120
Speaker 1: If they want it, all right, all right, appreciate the call.

742
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:06,400
Speaker 9: Uh.

743
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:12,000
Speaker 1: You know, they've they've been you know, the underdog, you know,

744
00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:15,759
Speaker 1: with three straight games. I mean and those first two

745
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:18,040
Speaker 1: were close, close, but the Cowboys figure out a way

746
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:20,400
Speaker 1: to win at home, and uh, you know, now you're

747
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:23,960
Speaker 1: going back to home two straight games, uh, Minnesota and

748
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 1: then the Chargers, So you're probably gonna be favored in

749
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:29,440
Speaker 1: these four games. You know, one these stats that I

750
00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:30,680
Speaker 1: was I was looking at. It's just one of the

751
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 1: things I wrote in my column. You know, you're like, oh,

752
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:36,400
Speaker 1: Cowboys lost forty four to thirty. So time possession, you

753
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:38,719
Speaker 1: know they didn't have no, No, they won that they

754
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:41,360
Speaker 1: want they actually had that by like three minutes. Okay,

755
00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:45,440
Speaker 1: first downs, no Cowboys had that too. What about third downs?

756
00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 1: Obviously a third No. Cowboys actually had a better percentage

757
00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:53,120
Speaker 1: than the Lions. Total yards, yep, Cowboys. Penalties. Actually, the

758
00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:55,360
Speaker 1: Lions had one more penalty than the Cowboys if you

759
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 1: believe that. Dallas did have more yards, but Lions did

760
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:04,440
Speaker 1: have more penalties. Turnovers three nothing just hits you in

761
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 1: the face, like Ferguson got called for on that pass

762
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:09,879
Speaker 1: to Pickens, and that was the theme of the night.

763
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,480
Speaker 1: Just hands to the face. And you know, you guys

764
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 1: know me. You've heard you know that's my least favorite penalty.

765
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:19,319
Speaker 1: It's the one that bothers me the most in all

766
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 1: of football. His hands to the face. I absolutely hate it.

767
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:26,719
Speaker 1: Not because of the way they call it, it's just

768
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:30,239
Speaker 1: it's just the moving target. You know, if Ferguson gets

769
00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 1: his hand in there on defensive end, Aiden Hutchinson, just

770
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,520
Speaker 1: a little bit that in the gates of fifty yard

771
00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:41,040
Speaker 1: penalty here David Montgomery can have the ball and just

772
00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:43,920
Speaker 1: slow Marquise Bell right in the throat and the face.

773
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:47,919
Speaker 1: That's fine, no problem there, Heaven forbid Nate Thomas gets

774
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,960
Speaker 1: his hand up in someone's face and then or Picktt, Now, Pickens,

775
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 1: that was a little I think Pickt's trying to get

776
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:56,360
Speaker 1: his hand out of there, but it just it's as funny.

777
00:38:56,520 --> 00:39:00,320
Speaker 1: Hands to the face is only a problem unless unless

778
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:01,759
Speaker 1: you run in the football. And then if you're running

779
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,480
Speaker 1: the football, then just go ahead and and not knock

780
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:06,839
Speaker 1: out the dB with your with your hand, all right?

781
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:10,319
Speaker 1: Rick in Webster, Massachusetts.

782
00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:10,480
Speaker 16: Hey, Nick, how you do?

783
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:11,440
Speaker 1: Good? Are you?

784
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:12,759
Speaker 16: I'm good?

785
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:13,320
Speaker 3: And I'm good.

786
00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:19,120
Speaker 16: I agree with you, know, with Sargeant Sewer earlier, the uh.

787
00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 16: You know, let the season play out, see how things go,

788
00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:25,200
Speaker 16: and we and go from there. But I don't know

789
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 16: if you had a title, but I would think. But

790
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:28,160
Speaker 16: last night I heard this thing.

791
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 3: I got him.

792
00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,040
Speaker 16: Maybe this could be a good tile Dallas Cowboys and

793
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:37,400
Speaker 16: the uh. Only Dallas Holby's can beat better than beating

794
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:40,359
Speaker 16: the Dallas Cowboys. You know, i'd say it is dead.

795
00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:43,680
Speaker 16: I'm sorry, we're the only we're the only team that

796
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:45,720
Speaker 16: can beat us better than NBLS can.

797
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:51,640
Speaker 1: Mm hmm, yeah, yeah, I mean that's that's what happened.

798
00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:55,120
Speaker 1: Say thanks for the call. And you know, I don't know,

799
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:57,560
Speaker 1: I don't know if you would say that they did that,

800
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:03,880
Speaker 1: you know, last night. But you know, Dak has two interceptions.

801
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:06,880
Speaker 1: That's the stat line you'll see. You'll see Dak. You know,

802
00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:10,799
Speaker 1: Dak has two interceptions in the game. But you know,

803
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:13,759
Speaker 1: seventy nine point seven quarterback rating through for you know,

804
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:17,399
Speaker 1: three seventy six was running for his life those two interceptions.

805
00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:19,839
Speaker 1: I swear, I mean, what are we playing volleyball again?

806
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:20,160
Speaker 6: Is that?

807
00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:22,959
Speaker 1: What is that what we're doing? I mean, seriously, and

808
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 1: and and I'm not Dak had some misthrows. I'm not

809
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:27,880
Speaker 1: saying he played a perfect game. He didn't. There was

810
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:30,719
Speaker 1: a couple of passes where you know, he missed. See

811
00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:33,759
Speaker 1: he's streaking down the field, he throws it, you know,

812
00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:37,319
Speaker 1: out of bounds and the cheerleaders. He had some he

813
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:39,440
Speaker 1: had some bad throws. He was he was under I mean,

814
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:43,040
Speaker 1: both tackles did not play well. So Uh, that's never

815
00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:46,919
Speaker 1: going to go well when when neither tackles actually blocking well.

816
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:50,160
Speaker 1: But the interceptions, I mean, both of them are just

817
00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:51,719
Speaker 1: just go ahead and you mean, what are you the

818
00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:53,480
Speaker 1: cetter and you just lob it up and the other

819
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:55,560
Speaker 1: guy spikes it in. That's pretty much what we were

820
00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:59,200
Speaker 1: playing again last night. So that's another thing that he

821
00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 1: had to do with. Again, I'm not giving Daka pass.

822
00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:06,960
Speaker 1: That wasn't Dak's best game, but just like Miami Anthony

823
00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:08,960
Speaker 1: and Miami said, it's twenty seven to nine, and that's saying,

824
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:12,040
Speaker 1: you know, it's thirty to twenty seven without CD and

825
00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:15,560
Speaker 1: they're they're fighting and Flinoise, you know, fighting and they're

826
00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:17,960
Speaker 1: they're they're trying to get back in it, and they

827
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:20,080
Speaker 1: didn't get back in it. But it just wasn't enough.

828

852
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:42,720
Speaker 1: chance for a couple more called Sebastian in Savannah, Georgia's next.

853
00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:44,480
Speaker 18: What's going on?

854
00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:44,759
Speaker 10: Boy?

855
00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:45,520
Speaker 1: How you doing good?

856
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:45,920
Speaker 6: How are you?

857
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:48,759
Speaker 18: I'm doing real good? You know it's very appropriate that

858
00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:50,400
Speaker 18: it's a rainy day here in Georgia, because it's a

859
00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:53,480
Speaker 18: Raineydyan Cowboys nation too. But you know what, Nick, I

860
00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:57,040
Speaker 18: don't feel too bad, and I'll tell you why. It's

861
00:42:57,080 --> 00:43:00,640
Speaker 18: a tough ass, big physical game against Philadelphia, we win,

862
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:04,000
Speaker 18: big physical game against Kansas City we win. Going to

863
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:05,840
Speaker 18: Detroit where you know it's going to be scrappy, you

864
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:07,920
Speaker 18: know it's going to be physical. And this was the

865
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:09,960
Speaker 18: game that I said we would lose because they had

866
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:10,720
Speaker 18: too much speed.

867
00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:12,040
Speaker 3: It's our Achilles Hills.

868
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,919
Speaker 18: That's been our Achilles Hill off season long right. Your

869
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:18,560
Speaker 18: coaches didn't have the worst game plan. You have a

870
00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:21,000
Speaker 18: rookie corner out there. He's getting toasted. This game was

871
00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:23,279
Speaker 18: lost in one up front. On both sides of the ball,

872
00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:26,400
Speaker 18: there's no seven eleven anymore. You don't have Trayvon Diggs

873
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,920
Speaker 18: out there, you don't have Micah Parsons. You can't get

874
00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:31,560
Speaker 18: to a quarterback in one point two seconds anymore, and

875
00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:33,160
Speaker 18: you leave him in the pocket. They're going to score

876
00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:34,680
Speaker 18: on defense on our side.

877
00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:34,879
Speaker 3: Of the ball.

878
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:37,760
Speaker 18: What can you do, Nick, When you have two Chaz Greens,

879
00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:40,359
Speaker 18: you know you're forcing I feel like that may have

880
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:42,520
Speaker 18: to start running a lot more because during that game,

881
00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:44,120
Speaker 18: I kept saying, get the ball out, get the ball out,

882
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:44,719
Speaker 18: get the ball out.

883
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:47,400
Speaker 3: He had no time. I mean poor.

884
00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:49,920
Speaker 18: I think his name is Nate Thompson. He didn't even

885
00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:52,360
Speaker 18: know where to look, like he was seeing ghosts.

886
00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:53,160
Speaker 3: He was literally.

887
00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:55,359
Speaker 18: Blocking nothing and there was just a guy in dac

888
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:57,640
Speaker 18: lap the second he looked up. It was unfortunate, but

889
00:43:57,680 --> 00:43:59,800
Speaker 18: we lost both sides of the ball on the offense

890
00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:02,800
Speaker 18: of the defensive line, and they looked tired. Your best

891
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:04,839
Speaker 18: defensive tackle was on the.

892
00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:05,919
Speaker 10: Floor of half the game.

893
00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:08,280
Speaker 9: It's a it's a tough ass.

894
00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:10,560
Speaker 18: Three very physical games back to back to back. But

895
00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:12,719
Speaker 18: like I said, we lose this one, we don't lose

896
00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:15,080
Speaker 18: any of the other four going forward, and we'll.

897
00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:17,040
Speaker 3: See what happens at the end of this. You have

898
00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:17,680
Speaker 3: a great day.

899
00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:20,719
Speaker 1: All right, You're exactly right about that last part. You'll

900
00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:23,839
Speaker 1: see what happens. I don't think the Chaz Green references

901
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:26,480
Speaker 1: is fair. I mean I really don't, not not not

902
00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:30,200
Speaker 1: calling Terrence Steel that he didn't have He didn't have

903
00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:32,359
Speaker 1: a great game. I mean he certainly didn't have his

904
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:36,080
Speaker 1: his his best game, you know he had. He had

905
00:44:36,120 --> 00:44:37,880
Speaker 1: a couple of moments where. I mean, he he had

906
00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:40,200
Speaker 1: a couple of nice, really nice blocks, but I mean,

907
00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:43,239
Speaker 1: you know, we don't nobody remembers those. Uh, it's it's

908
00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:45,600
Speaker 1: the other ones. And and yeah, Doak was Doak was

909
00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:48,719
Speaker 1: running for his life, and you know they they didn't

910
00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:50,960
Speaker 1: keep the tight ends that in that much to to

911
00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:53,560
Speaker 1: help with that. And you know, it's it's it's tough,

912
00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:57,080
Speaker 1: you know, having Turpin out there. It's got to be

913
00:44:57,120 --> 00:44:59,759
Speaker 1: worth it, you know, because when you have Turpin out there,

914
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:02,200
Speaker 1: he's got to make plays because if he doesn't, he's

915
00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:05,359
Speaker 1: taking off a blocker off the field. So you know,

916
00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:09,839
Speaker 1: sometimes you want him, sometimes you don't. Davante, you know,

917
00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:12,440
Speaker 1: you want to maybe have him chip a little bit.

918
00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:16,160
Speaker 1: It just then they tried, they tried different things, and

919
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:17,919
Speaker 1: you know it's not like they didn't move the ball.

920
00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:22,040
Speaker 1: They did. They just you know, they they they got

921
00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:24,400
Speaker 1: it wasn't even red zone. It was just late in

922
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:26,279
Speaker 1: the it was like thirty yard line or sothern that

923
00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:29,160
Speaker 1: penalty and that moved him back and that's why he

924
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:31,320
Speaker 1: was kicking these ninety yard field goals. All right, Anthony

925
00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:34,920
Speaker 1: and Columbia South Carolina our last call, Anthony.

926
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:37,640
Speaker 6: Hey, Nick, how you doing how are you doing. I'm

927
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:42,279
Speaker 6: doing good today, sir, Just quick man. Couldn't it be

928
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:45,279
Speaker 6: that reason Dallas played the way they played last night

929
00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:47,799
Speaker 6: and the way they played every year around this time,

930
00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:52,960
Speaker 6: just because of the four games in the sixteen seventeen days.

931
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:56,279
Speaker 6: I think those guys are tired. Man. Yeah, And my

932
00:45:56,480 --> 00:46:01,160
Speaker 6: question is to you would be why do Dallas do

933
00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:04,960
Speaker 6: this every year to accept the schedule like this, to

934
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:08,800
Speaker 6: play the four games in the sixteen or seventeen days?

935
00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:11,759
Speaker 6: Why don't they pass it around the other teams? Is

936
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:15,040
Speaker 6: it because the lionlight the Dallas like to be in

937
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:17,200
Speaker 6: the limelight that why do we do that?

938
00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:20,719
Speaker 1: Well, it's you know, the Cowboys don't do it. I

939
00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:23,759
Speaker 1: mean they they don't. They don't make that that that schedule,

940
00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:28,839
Speaker 1: but but they, you know, they do, like I think

941
00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:31,200
Speaker 1: I think that is a problem though, is is you

942
00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:34,239
Speaker 1: have a short week and then and then you come

943
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,440
Speaker 1: back and then you don't give them a break. That

944
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:40,480
Speaker 1: that is the biggest issue to me. It is not

945
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:42,839
Speaker 1: giving them a break, because it's like with anything, if

946
00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:45,399
Speaker 1: you're gonna take money here, at least you're gonna save

947
00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:47,560
Speaker 1: money here. But in this case, is that you get

948
00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:49,920
Speaker 1: that four days and then and then you got to

949
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:52,680
Speaker 1: play again, and then you play in seven days. That

950
00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:54,480
Speaker 1: in some of the Lions, I mean so of the

951
00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:57,480
Speaker 1: Lion now they didn't travel. But you know, and and

952
00:46:57,520 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 1: I'm sorry we had we had to cut you off

953
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:01,239
Speaker 1: because this we're gonna to wrap up the show. But

954
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:05,400
Speaker 1: you make a good point, but it's not one. I

955
00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:07,799
Speaker 1: don't think this is the case, you know, because they

956
00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:11,320
Speaker 1: would do this with thirty two teams. I don't think it's. Well, Jerry,

957
00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:13,640
Speaker 1: here you go, this is what we've got. What do

958
00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:17,399
Speaker 1: you think. No, now I don't like this. Take this off,

959
00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 1: move us to here. No, it doesn't happen that way,

960
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:23,640
Speaker 1: you know. And so it's not an accepting the schedule

961
00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:26,759
Speaker 1: type thing. Now obviously you can, you know, raise your

962
00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:28,960
Speaker 1: concerns and things like that. And I'm sure that that

963
00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:31,040
Speaker 1: that happened. You know, the Lions played three home games

964
00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:33,239
Speaker 1: in a row, three home games in a row. They

965
00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:35,919
Speaker 1: one of them against the Giants. They barely won that game,

966
00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:40,080
Speaker 1: then Green Bay on Thanksgiving. That you know that that

967
00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:44,080
Speaker 1: was a little surprising to have that right there, But

968
00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:50,080
Speaker 1: you know, it's player safety is a is a huge deal.

969
00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:53,520
Speaker 1: Until until we're talking about playing on four days rest

970
00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:56,960
Speaker 1: and things like that. That was my first thought when

971
00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:58,560
Speaker 1: I saw CD hit the ground. As soon as he

972
00:47:58,600 --> 00:47:59,759
Speaker 1: hit the ground, I was like, well, you know what,

973
00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:03,040
Speaker 1: he's probably not coming back from this. And then I thought, well,

974
00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:05,799
Speaker 1: they do have ten days. You know, maybe he can

975
00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:08,479
Speaker 1: be back. Maybe he could be back in ten days.

976
00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:11,480
Speaker 1: We'll see how he is. But but that that is

977
00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:14,759
Speaker 1: a that is a problem. The Thanksgiving Day game, that's

978
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:18,799
Speaker 1: one thing, but then to to give them to not

979
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:21,279
Speaker 1: give him ten days after that, then they got to

980
00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:23,600
Speaker 1: keep going. It messes up the entire schedule. Sure that

981
00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:27,000
Speaker 1: they get ten days after it, but I mean didn't

982
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:29,759
Speaker 1: do any favors with giving them. You know, the three

983
00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:31,799
Speaker 1: of the top teams in the NFL from last year,

984
00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:34,800
Speaker 1: so we knew it. Like that's the thing when the

985
00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:37,759
Speaker 1: schedule goes out, go back to May when it came out.

986
00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:40,120
Speaker 1: What's the first thing I know? I said it. Other

987
00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:43,360
Speaker 1: people said it right there. Wow, those three games in

988
00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:46,399
Speaker 1: a row. That that's just like a flashing light right there,

989
00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:49,320
Speaker 1: those three games. And guess what they were They Cowboys

990
00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:52,160
Speaker 1: won two of them, they lost the third one. You know,

991
00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:53,799
Speaker 1: to think that this team was going to go three,

992
00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:55,359
Speaker 1: five and one and then cut, you know, and then

993
00:48:55,560 --> 00:48:58,239
Speaker 1: come back from all the stuff that happened and beat

994
00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:02,080
Speaker 1: the Raiders. Then sweep that that's probably unrealistic. It didn't happen.

995
00:49:02,239 --> 00:49:04,320
Speaker 1: They gave it a go. It didn't happen, does it.

996
00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:04,600
Speaker 3: See?

997
00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:07,600
Speaker 1: Is the season over? Nope, We'll keep We'll keep it going.

998
00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:10,480
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens. Four games left. You guys, you know,

999
00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:13,399
Speaker 1: did a good job of reiterating that, and we'll see

1000
00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:16,480
Speaker 1: see what happens. I don't leave me now. I need

1001
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:18,720
Speaker 1: you for the for this final month. Hopefully the Cowboys

1002
00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:20,840
Speaker 1: can stay in it. I know you guys will as well.

1003
00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:23,720
Speaker 1: Have a great weekend. I keep telling myself it's not Monday,

1004
00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:26,880
Speaker 1: it's a Friday. Keep telling myself that y'all have a

1005
00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:30,479
Speaker 1: great weekend. We'll do it again on Monday. For Chris Beam,
