Speaker 4: We got the former Cowboy and the former Giant, Everson Walls.
Speaker 6: Here.
Speaker 4: We've got Mickey.
Speaker 6: Spagno always forget about that, who.
Speaker 4: Has been a giant in the media community for so
Speaker 4: many decades and decades. We have football players on a
Speaker 4: football field. They're back to work today, have time to
Speaker 4: get going.
Speaker 6: Here.
Speaker 1: We have a wall between us and the football field,
Speaker 1: so we can't see.
Speaker 4: So now you're complaining about the new podcast studio. Why
Speaker 4: didn't they eliminate the walls we can see the.
Speaker 6: That would have been very cool. Yeah, we should be
Speaker 6: looking right out at the dog.
Speaker 1: We need we need a wireless mic to go out
Speaker 1: and watch practice.
Speaker 4: Well, there are cameras everywhere, so you just need to
Speaker 4: tap into one of these cameras around the Star and
Speaker 4: Frisco be able to watch for yourself. All right, So
Speaker 4: so much to get to, so little time to get there.
Speaker 4: And Mickey, you.
Speaker 1: Want to explain your sees everything.
Speaker 4: Well with Mike McCarthy had a press conference and we
Speaker 4: had told the medium earlier what the theme of the
Speaker 4: season would be would be revealed game week and he
Speaker 4: revealed it to the team this morning. Carpe Omnia the
Speaker 4: theme for the season.
Speaker 1: If you remember last year, they put a mural up
Speaker 1: on the underneath the hallway over the hallway there where
Speaker 1: the overhang is from the first floor to the second floor,
Speaker 1: and it had a bunch of bulls running or whatever
Speaker 1: to go with their theme of.
Speaker 3: The year last year.
Speaker 1: Well, the there was a plastic covering over it on Monday,
Speaker 1: so I'm assuming they pulled the cord and there's gonna
Speaker 1: be a new mural there for the reveal.
Speaker 4: Yes, a reveal.
Speaker 6: You could just write it in Shopie, couldn't you.
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm gonna have to get so I want
Speaker 3: to see what the.
Speaker 1: Mural it's going to be to explain sees everything.
Speaker 6: Well, last year it was what good question? God, I
Speaker 6: was the only one.
Speaker 1: With mister attorney. Don't ask questions you don't know the answer.
Speaker 4: But McCarthy did say that frankly, probably the players should
Speaker 4: speak on it, because I'll be curious how much they
Speaker 4: paid attention this morning during the team meeting.
Speaker 5: The team meetings are earlier than usual, right because the
Speaker 5: heat and the uh they went with.
Speaker 4: An earlier schedule. They went with an earlier schedule last
Speaker 4: week due to the heat. But now it's game week.
Speaker 4: It doesn't matter that the high is going to be
Speaker 4: a hole to today. We're going to keep a hundred.
Speaker 1: Have you you watched when you called me. The US
Speaker 1: opened last night and that's where the Cowboys are going
Speaker 1: to play that first game. And those tennis players have
Speaker 1: been suffering for the last two days and.
Speaker 3: At night, by the way, changing weather, tempa.
Speaker 1: Shoes, changing shoes because they were so wet, ninety degree
Speaker 1: weather with almost sixty percent humidity, and they can't. They're
Speaker 1: passing out towels wrapped around ice packs.
Speaker 3: To put on their shoulders.
Speaker 1: Right, So that's what you said that golf, and this
Speaker 1: is a night time thing, right, So this is a
Speaker 1: night game the Calcari playing. Yes, So this is what
Speaker 1: they're heading into. So they might as well just go
Speaker 1: out there and practice and start getting used to it.
Speaker 1: And they should thank the weather here in Dallas, that'll
Speaker 1: be one hundred degrees again today.
Speaker 4: Well it's already here at just past twelve noon. In
Speaker 4: Frisco it is ninety five degrees and so there'll be
Speaker 4: ninety seven at one o'clock. That's the temperature that they're
Speaker 4: practicing in right now. And by the way, it just
Speaker 4: occurred to me. It just occurred to me. The theme
Speaker 4: last year was resilience.
Speaker 3: Yeah, somebody just told resilience, that's right.
Speaker 6: Comes to him. I really don't even remember that.
Speaker 4: I do now, I do. Once they once they get
Speaker 4: knocked out of the playoffs, so I put everything.
Speaker 3: And they were resilient.
Speaker 1: When Dak missed five games and went four and one,
Speaker 1: I thought it was going to be sustainability this year. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because you went twelve and five, twelve and five, Now
Speaker 1: can you do it three years in a row. But
Speaker 1: you want to go farther, you want to seize everything.
Speaker 1: I didn't say anything about going farther.
Speaker 6: No, that's what way beyond.
Speaker 4: Okay, we're beyond resilience. We prove resilience. Now it's time
Speaker 4: to seize everything. We're not just seizing this day. We
Speaker 4: are seizing everything.
Speaker 1: Do you remember the last time they've gone three years
Speaker 1: in a row with double digit wins?
Speaker 4: Well, I remember the last time they went two years
Speaker 4: in a row, which was your were the mid nineties
Speaker 4: Super Bowl run.
Speaker 1: So we have to go back to there ninety three,
Speaker 1: ninety four, ninety four, ninety five, ninety six because they
Speaker 1: won ten games in ninety six.
Speaker 5: I'm kind of with them on that as well, because
Speaker 5: you don't get tired of it, you don't take it
Speaker 5: for granted, right, But you know, twelve and five is good.
Speaker 5: But I'd rather be the Bengals when they went in games.
Speaker 6: They lose that year maybe, and.
Speaker 3: They still still they want to win in the playoffs.
Speaker 6: I mean, you got to win. That's it.
Speaker 5: You gotta win in the playoffs. All of that stuff
Speaker 5: sounds good. We can peak at a particular.
Speaker 6: Time because I remember our podcasts from a couple.
Speaker 5: Of the previous years where we were like, oh, okay,
Speaker 5: we got momentum going in and all that didn't mean
Speaker 5: a damn thing in that second playoff game.
Speaker 4: And by the way, it is right now in East Rutherford,
Speaker 4: New Jersey, ninety two degrees. We've only got them by
Speaker 4: three degrees right now, two year point of what's happening
Speaker 4: at Flushing Meadows and Sunday, there's a cool front coming
Speaker 4: through this weekend. Apparently the high on Sunday will be
Speaker 4: eighty one degrees with a low of seventy two.
Speaker 5: Well, it's only it's only a cold front. Whoever has
Speaker 5: no such thing as a cool fin it's only.
Speaker 4: A cold I was only a cold As I was
Speaker 4: walking in today, I was thinking, you know, what's going
Speaker 4: to be really nice, that first cold front that comes
Speaker 4: through this fall. As hot as it's been.
Speaker 6: I'm looking at rain in the forecast. That makes me happy.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and there's forty percent chance of rain on Sunday.
Speaker 4: By the way, in East Rutherford.
Speaker 5: About the heat, so ninety two degrees out there, much
Speaker 5: hotter than ninety two degrees here, well, I mentioned it.
Speaker 1: I imagine humidity is higher because those guys were suffering
Speaker 1: last night.
Speaker 6: It seems like population has something to do with it
Speaker 6: as well.
Speaker 4: Now there's more people there, more crowd people, body heat crazy.
Speaker 3: And there's no there's no roof on that life way.
Speaker 4: That's right, that wind's gonna whip around. And we'll talk
Speaker 4: Brandon Aubrey coming up here in just a little bit,
Speaker 4: but I think we need to talk Tyler Smith first. Yes,
Speaker 4: what's going on with Tyler Smith? Everson, I'm not sure
Speaker 4: if you're aware of this since you were out yesterday,
Speaker 4: but Tyler Smith had to leave practice on Monday.
Speaker 1: With a tight hamstring, which doctor Jerry called.
Speaker 6: That's what Jerry called. Yeah, I want to hear the
Speaker 6: official report, and they.
Speaker 1: He kind of walked out of practice and was supposed
Speaker 1: to get an MRI yesterday and Mike McCarthy said today
Speaker 1: that he would be limited and with Britt Brown their
Speaker 1: rehab trainer today and they'd see where it'd go going forward. Now,
Speaker 1: when Jerry explained it, he said after practice, when they
Speaker 1: reassessed the injury, it wasn't as serious as they originally thought,
Speaker 1: and that it shouldn't affect his game status for Sunday.
Speaker 1: So we'll see where this one goes.
Speaker 3: Because that was the one.
Speaker 4: Guy on the offensive line. I wasn't concerned about.
Speaker 1: The youngest guy, right, Uh and uh, so we'll see,
Speaker 1: and I guess we can discuss potential backup guards.
Speaker 3: I don't know that they want to go there.
Speaker 1: But you know, first of all, Chuma Doga has played
Speaker 1: both positions.
Speaker 3: Guard and tackle.
Speaker 1: I don't know how well he's played him, but he
Speaker 1: has played.
Speaker 4: What's his injury status.
Speaker 1: He's back in practice with ads on. He's he suffered
Speaker 1: a bone bruise from a hyper extended knee. He was
Speaker 1: in practice these last couple of times, so we're.
Speaker 3: Thinking he's available.
Speaker 1: And then after that, how they were practicing with the
Speaker 1: second team line. Awesome Richards was the left guard, but
Speaker 1: that doesn't mean he would take over because they've also
Speaker 1: have TJ. Bass who's just been playing on the right side.
Speaker 4: By the way, those last two that Mickey just mentioned,
Speaker 4: those are both rookies, right, a fifth round draft pick
Speaker 4: Awesome Richards and what an undrafted draft J. Bass?
Speaker 1: And so this is this is uh, you know, the
Speaker 1: bed they made with the backup offensive line, So we'll
Speaker 1: see how this kind of sorts itself out. They also
Speaker 1: have used on the practice squad now brock Hoffman, who's
Speaker 1: obstensibly the backup center, but he played some guard also.
Speaker 1: I don't think he played all that well, so I
Speaker 1: think that's why he's kind of the center. So those
Speaker 1: are their their choices at this point if indeed they
Speaker 1: have to find a guard.
Speaker 4: And so you're you did not mention Sean Harlowe on
Speaker 4: the practice squad former New York Giant who started three
Speaker 4: games for the Arizona Cardinals last year. Yeah, arrived after
Speaker 4: the roster.
Speaker 3: And I think he started.
Speaker 1: Where my note eight games in thirty three that he's
Speaker 1: played in the league, but they still got them listed
Speaker 1: at six four two eighty five. It's a little small
Speaker 1: for my guard, but he's at least played, so you
Speaker 1: could elevate him.
Speaker 6: String.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, they may have to do it anyway to
Speaker 1: be a backup just in case, because he can back
Speaker 1: up center and guard.
Speaker 5: Remember the good old days when the culture for this
Speaker 5: team was offensive lineman running games.
Speaker 3: Well it was until they got one injury.
Speaker 6: One injury.
Speaker 3: Well that's that's kind of the spot. But you know what,
Speaker 3: look around the league.
Speaker 1: Look all the other teams that are having problems with injuries. Right,
Speaker 1: who was the tight end yesterday got hurt?
Speaker 4: Travis?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and he may play in the opener.
Speaker 4: Tomorrow night Kansas City and Detroit.
Speaker 3: Probably not, by the.
Speaker 4: Way, Sean Harlowe, you've talked about him being two hundred
Speaker 4: eighty five pounds at the combine, he was six four
Speaker 4: three hundred three pounds.
Speaker 3: Well, then he's shrunk.
Speaker 6: Someone.
Speaker 4: Someone's using a college bio or a high school bio.
Speaker 3: On it for their right here six four to eighty four.
Speaker 3: That was printed yesterday.
Speaker 4: It was printed yesterday, But we don't know where that
Speaker 4: information came from. The combine is usually pretty accurate on
Speaker 4: at one point in his life he was three hundred
Speaker 4: three pus.
Speaker 1: So what what bio would they have looked at? Maybe
Speaker 1: that's the oregonier they took.
Speaker 4: Wherever he went to high school. Yeah, there's in the program.
Speaker 4: He was two hundred eighty five pounds. Okay, okay, all right, so.
Speaker 3: But he looked to eighty four on the on the bright.
Speaker 4: Side, on the offensive line, Everson Terrence Steele five years
Speaker 4: your extension, Wow, eighty seven million dollars and that I think,
Speaker 4: I say, is the best thing that happened in the
Speaker 4: preseason and training camp. He's good to go after a
Speaker 4: multiple ligament surgery in December.
Speaker 6: How's he look looks like?
Speaker 4: First, we wouldn't know because they haven't played in any games,
Speaker 4: but we have seen them in practice.
Speaker 1: It looks good, look good in training camp, moving well.
Speaker 1: Fifty million guaranteed.
Speaker 6: Well, it's good.
Speaker 5: You guys brought up the future because I have Nate
Speaker 5: from Frisco. It's telling me to get out of the past.
Speaker 4: I agree with that.
Speaker 5: I'm not going to worry about the culture that we had.
Speaker 5: I'm going to worry about the culture that we're building.
Speaker 5: All right, all right, thank you Nate from Frisco.
Speaker 4: And we're going to look ahead now here on mix
Speaker 4: shots when we come back in a moment. I've taken
Speaker 4: a look ahead to the New York Giants, and you
Speaker 4: don't want to underestimate this team when we come back.
Speaker 6: I am miss.
Speaker 7: I'm Dak Prescott, quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 2: And they snapped the fresh guy who looks white. It's
Speaker 2: not there. He escaped, flapped. He'll run full a.
Speaker 7: Punch down, just like football when it comes to crypto,
Speaker 7: it's important to have a team you can trust. With
Speaker 7: blockchain dot Com, I know I'm in good hands. Since
Speaker 7: twenty eleven, they've been trusted by millions around the world
Speaker 7: to buy, sell, and trade crypto currency.
Speaker 2: Prescott's gonna run thish in shelf, run it up the middle,
Speaker 2: and he scores.
Speaker 7: Whether you're new to crypto or an active trader, they've
Speaker 7: got you covered.
Speaker 6: What are you waiting for?
Speaker 7: Get started at blockchain dot com.
Speaker 1: You know that sound anywhere.
Speaker 8: It's the crisp crunch, that first nacho chip with its
Speaker 8: perfect cheese to sour cream ratio sitting atop a layer
Speaker 8: of delicious beans. It's a sip away from perfection. That's
Speaker 8: what we're looking for at a delicious, refreshing pepsi, and
Speaker 8: we've achieved absolute nacho nirvana because while you can pile
Speaker 8: those nachos high with every spicy, cheesy, savory topping, there's
Speaker 8: no topping of school pepsi. Finish nachos with pepsi.
Speaker 4: That's what I like.
Speaker 9: The Medal of Honor is our country's highest military award
Speaker 9: for valor in combat. More than forty million individuals have
Speaker 9: served in the armed forces since the Civil War, Fewer
Speaker 9: than four thousand have received the Medal of Honor. The
Speaker 9: National Medal of Honor Museum will be a place to
Speaker 9: preserve these legacies and inspire America. It's being built right
Speaker 9: next door to the Dallas Cowboys in Texas. Help us
Speaker 9: honor our country's greatest heroes. Learn more and get involved

Speaker 3: And we've got a big producer. There we go, feedback going.
Speaker 6: We got an.
Speaker 4: Update on Sean Harlowe. I pulled up his bio from
Speaker 4: Oregon State and at one point in his life. He
Speaker 4: weighed three hundred and ten pounds. His weight is going up.
Speaker 3: He's shrinking now, he's shrinking.
Speaker 4: At one point he was three hundred and ten pounds,
Speaker 4: and then at the combine he was three oh three
Speaker 4: or whatever I said. And now he's two hundred and
Speaker 4: eighty five pounds. He's been out in this heat too much.
Speaker 3: He's suggesting they went back to.
Speaker 1: His high school bio. Yeah, so I was your high
Speaker 1: school bio.
Speaker 4: It was about one hundred and thirty five pounds.
Speaker 6: From for real dollar.
Speaker 5: I was gonna say close, I can see I'm tall,
Speaker 5: and that.
Speaker 3: Mine was one twenty.
Speaker 4: Five as a sophomore. It's one thing if you're you're
Speaker 4: right in one five. It's another thing if you're six four.
Speaker 1: And you're only eighty five right. And I wrestled at
Speaker 1: one twelve, by the.
Speaker 4: Way, you wrestled. Oh yeah, he lost.
Speaker 6: It one twelve. He lost every wrestling match at one twelve.
Speaker 1: No, I beat guys on my own team to get
Speaker 1: a shot at wrestling.
Speaker 4: Oh, those guys, you beat those guys guys from others.
Speaker 6: Yeah, that guy.
Speaker 3: I got beat by one.
Speaker 1: Everybody in the third in the third period, What do
Speaker 1: you mean everybody.
Speaker 6: Who did you beat at.
Speaker 3: One one twelve? Yeah, you don't have to be big.
Speaker 3: You're going to wrestle somebody that's one twelve.
Speaker 6: You can find them. Can you find some people that small?
Speaker 4: Well, they had back then one old. People have gotten
Speaker 4: bigger since then.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there was a one oh five weight class.
Speaker 4: I think, wow, Yeah, it's shocking.
Speaker 3: But you guys didn't You didn't have wrestling in high school?
Speaker 6: Think Texas, We don't go on this school.
Speaker 4: I looked like a wrestler. Well MacArthur, my alma mater, MacArthur.
Speaker 4: We were nine and twenty one in basketball ever since,
Speaker 4: but we were the state champions. That's right, all right.
Speaker 4: Update on Sam Williams.
Speaker 1: He's got a foot injury and sounds like he was
Speaker 1: working with Britt also today, so I think it's a
Speaker 1: toe type thing. And uh, this is lingered for a
Speaker 1: couple a week or so, so we'll see if he
Speaker 1: can make it. And you know, I think they asked
Speaker 1: Mike about Donovan Wilson, but he hasn't practiced yet in pads,
Speaker 1: so there's no way.
Speaker 6: He's really going through it, right, I.
Speaker 1: Mean, yeah, they're being careful. They understand that there's no
Speaker 1: sense rushing him back. Plus he needs ramp up period,
Speaker 1: So I would imagine he misses the first, maybe even
Speaker 1: the second game before they send him out there.
Speaker 6: He's the kind of guy that would probably hurt.
Speaker 3: Himself again because he would go out there.
Speaker 6: Yeah right, just go all out.
Speaker 3: And fly around and yeah, not be careful.
Speaker 1: And it's a it was that high calf injury that
Speaker 1: he suffered.
Speaker 4: Anything else on your legal pad from McCarthy's press conference
Speaker 4: or any other news we need to get to before
Speaker 4: I throw something out here.
Speaker 1: Ah, I think that was.
Speaker 4: The kay Lights, all right, the New York Giants.
Speaker 3: That was part of his press conference too.
Speaker 4: But oh they actually asked a question about the New
Speaker 4: York Giants.
Speaker 1: To ask him if there's a chance, because the Cowboys
Speaker 1: have won ten of the last eleven against the Giants,
Speaker 1: that there would be overlooking their division opponent.
Speaker 4: And what was his answer to that?
Speaker 1: Uh, he said, we are aware of it. We're aware
Speaker 1: of the success. But last year doesn't mean anything this year.
Speaker 4: You know, if you look at last year, of course,
Speaker 4: the Cowboys finished twelve and five. They beat the Giants.
Speaker 1: Twice twenty three, sixteen, twenty eight, twenty with a late touchdown.
Speaker 4: The Giants finished nine to seven and one last year
Speaker 4: and with a wild card win over Minnesota before losing
Speaker 4: in the Division round to Philadelphia. Okay, you change the
Speaker 4: result of the Cowboys Giants two games, and the Giants
Speaker 4: are eleven to five and one and the Cowboys were
Speaker 4: ten and seven last year.
Speaker 3: What does that mean?
Speaker 4: It means It means no, it means these games how
Speaker 4: important these games are? Yeah, if the Cowboys don't win
Speaker 4: those two games against the Giants last year, it flips
Speaker 4: them in the standings and the Cowboys are on the
Speaker 4: cusp of not making the playoffs.
Speaker 1: Well, if the Giants hadn't gone one ohero and one
Speaker 1: against Washington and won both of those.
Speaker 4: But we're talking Cowboys versus Giants.
Speaker 1: They went one four and one in the NFC East
Speaker 1: last year.
Speaker 6: All right, was the last time the Giants have been
Speaker 6: the Cowboys.
Speaker 1: Twenty I wrote it down.
Speaker 3: It was a couple of years ago.
Speaker 4: You got your media guy right there. In the meantime,
Speaker 4: all right, what is the perception of the NFC East
Speaker 4: is on paper? On paper, who's finishing first, who's finishing second,
Speaker 4: who's finishing third, who's finishing fourth? What's the what's the
Speaker 4: perception out there.
Speaker 6: The perception is Eagles, Cowboys, Giants, Commanders. That's right.
Speaker 1: And the last time they lost to the Giants was
Speaker 1: the final game of the twenty twenty COVID season in
Speaker 1: New York twenty three nineteen.
Speaker 4: If the Giants played in the NFC North, who would
Speaker 4: be the favorite to win the NFC North this year?
Speaker 4: Favorites this If the Giants played in the NFC North
Speaker 4: with Minnesota, Chicago, Green Bay, and Detroit, who would be
Speaker 4: the favorite to win the North?
Speaker 6: Detroit, That's what I would say.
Speaker 4: I would say the Giants.
Speaker 3: Because they're already the favorites to last.
Speaker 6: They are, but Minnesota put the Giants in there.
Speaker 4: But Minnesota with a thirteen win season last year as
Speaker 4: the defending champ and New York beat them in the
Speaker 4: playoffs last year. And New York and the point is
Speaker 4: NFC South. If the Giants are in the NFC South,
Speaker 4: who would be the favorite to win the NFC South? Yeah, Giants,
Speaker 4: Giants would be. And the Giants have improved markedly from
Speaker 4: last year. What they've done with their roster too.
Speaker 6: Well, they improved from the beginning of last year to
Speaker 6: the end of.
Speaker 4: That They did that too. That's right now. They did
Speaker 4: remember the first game last year, I believe it was
Speaker 4: against Tennessee and they went for two point conversion. Brian
Speaker 4: Dables set the tone for the entire season by deciding
Speaker 4: to go for two. They got it, they won, and good.
Speaker 3: Thing otherwise they had been eight and one.
Speaker 6: Right, Yeah, that's the question. What if they didn't make
Speaker 6: the fourth and two? What would the record be? That's
Speaker 6: what we need to look at.
Speaker 1: I think they're greatly improved, uh it. And it all
Speaker 1: comes down to the step Daniel Jones took last year.
Speaker 3: Is it for real?
Speaker 1: Is this what he is getting going forward? Because they
Speaker 1: were ready to not offer him a contract to keep
Speaker 1: him for his fifth year.
Speaker 5: But I think that all went along with They weren't
Speaker 5: running the ball well either, right, I think the better
Speaker 5: and they were.
Speaker 6: Under the ball last year than the better he got.
Speaker 1: And they weren't protecting him because I think they gave
Speaker 1: up the most sacks in the league last year. The
Speaker 1: Cowboys in two games had eight sacks against the Jones.
Speaker 4: Well, it wasn't the most sacks in the league, but
Speaker 4: it was forty nine sacks they gave up. They did
Speaker 4: no Denver gave up like sixty sacks. Russell Wilson, all right,
Speaker 4: but they.
Speaker 6: Shored up called the coach's name. Why would you call
Speaker 6: Russell's name?
Speaker 4: You can call it. So Barkley did run for thirteen
Speaker 4: hundred yards last year, ten touchdowns, but not.
Speaker 3: Against the Cowboys.
Speaker 5: Any game that they were successful, it was because of Well,
Speaker 5: any game that Jones was successful is because Blockley was running.
Speaker 4: The paw and they were fourth in the league in
Speaker 4: rushing last year. The Giants were, but they added Darren
Speaker 4: Waller at tied end. Okay, that's a significant upgrade.
Speaker 1: What you said is they're starting a rookie center right,
Speaker 1: and the.
Speaker 4: Second round draft pick John Michael Schmidtz.
Speaker 1: The other thing that stood out to me is they're
Speaker 1: starting two cornerbacks, our rookies. Now, one of them first
Speaker 1: round picked Deonta Banks, but drey Trey Hawkins, the third
Speaker 1: is their other starting running back.
Speaker 4: Starting running back.
Speaker 3: I mean cornerback, sorry.
Speaker 4: Six round draft pick out of old dominion. So you
Speaker 4: think the Cowboys are just going to eat him up,
Speaker 4: then throw the ball.
Speaker 5: See we're getting away from that.
Speaker 6: That's that's how we got in trouble in the playoffs
Speaker 6: last year.
Speaker 5: We didn't run the ball enough, I think we need
Speaker 5: to continue, stick with the plan, stick with the plan.
Speaker 4: They've added on their defensive line, yes, okay, they already
Speaker 4: have Dexter Lawrence pro bowler last year, Leonard Williams, and
Speaker 4: they added A'shawn Robinson from the Rams along with Rakeem
Speaker 4: Nuniez Roaches who started ten games for Tampa Bay last year,
Speaker 4: so they got a more of a rotation going on
Speaker 4: that offensive on that defensive line. Keevon Thibadeau, if you'll
Speaker 4: recall last year when the Cowboys played them the first
Speaker 4: game of the year, it was his first game. He
Speaker 4: was coming back from an injury, and he wasn't one
Speaker 4: hundred percent of that game with.
Speaker 1: The one hundred percent when they had him beaten twenty
Speaker 1: eight to thirteen before that late.
Speaker 4: Touchdown, Well, I'm not sure.
Speaker 3: Oh that was yeah.
Speaker 4: By the way, what Tideau was the fifth pick in
Speaker 4: the draft last year?
Speaker 3: Who was the guy?
Speaker 1: You said?
Speaker 4: Which one?
Speaker 3: The first one they added?
Speaker 4: Not after Sean Robins, No, next one, Rakeem Nunez Rochez welcome.
Speaker 3: He's not on their depth show.
Speaker 4: I mean maybe maybe he's hobbled. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Well, he's not on there too.
Speaker 4: D Bobby o'cara key linebacker. Yes, that's another guy they've added.
Speaker 4: You know who was starting for them at linebacker late
Speaker 4: in the season last.
Speaker 3: Year, Jalen Smith.
Speaker 4: That's right.
Speaker 1: I thought he'd slipped that biby.
Speaker 4: Anyway, I agree with the coach that there's no reason
Speaker 4: to and the premise of the question taking this team lightly,
Speaker 4: There is no way anyone in that locker room is
Speaker 4: taking the Giants lightly.
Speaker 3: Well, if you go and look at.
Speaker 1: The video boards that have the daily schedule at the bottom,
Speaker 1: it says division game.
Speaker 3: Kind of highlighted.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's not an easy opener, and it's an
Speaker 1: important game because it's a division game, right.
Speaker 6: It's not just that.
Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, we talked about the NFC East about
Speaker 5: three years ago being like at the bottom of the NFL,
Speaker 5: and now they are not that.
Speaker 4: It was this time last year we were talking about
Speaker 4: the NFC East not being very strong.
Speaker 5: And surprised everyone exactly right out of the box.
Speaker 6: Okay, so we know that that is no more.
Speaker 5: The NFC East was always strong against the other opponents.
Speaker 4: And that's the amazing thing about the NFL now and
Speaker 4: why there is so much anticipation for this weekend in
Speaker 4: the start of games, because across the board in the league,
Speaker 4: we really have no idea what these teams are going
Speaker 4: to look like, you know, because there's nothing to go
Speaker 4: on now. In the past, years ago, decades ago, they
Speaker 4: were playing four to six preseason games, we had a
Speaker 4: pretty good idea what the first Steamers were doing, and
Speaker 4: we have no idea now.
Speaker 5: Across You can thank the Giants and obviously Philly for
Speaker 5: really bringing up the status in Washington of the NFC
Speaker 5: East and Washington was.
Speaker 4: A five hundred team went and one right, yep, and
Speaker 4: they're going to start one to er this year. Who
Speaker 4: they got Arizona? Okay?
Speaker 3: Oh god, is that like playing Eastern Kentucky until they
Speaker 3: get there.
Speaker 4: I ain't saying state Arizona is likely starting a quarterback
Speaker 4: Joshua Dobbs who arrived there a week and a half ago.
Speaker 1: Well, they cut somebody and then McCoy call McCoy, and
Speaker 1: then somebody got else got hurt.
Speaker 4: They had already signed or gotten in a trade. Joshua
Speaker 4: Dobbs from Cleveland.
Speaker 1: Okay, and it's yeah, I'm scared to ask who the
Speaker 1: backup is.
Speaker 6: All right?
Speaker 4: We continue with more mix shots in just a moment.

Speaker 8: It's the crisp crunch, that first nacho chip with its

Speaker 8: what we're looking for at a delicious, refreshing pepsi, and
Speaker 8: we've achieved absolute nacho nirvana because while you can pile

Speaker 1: And by the way, when you were talking to Giants,
Speaker 1: their nine wins last year was the most since twenty sixteen,
Speaker 1: and it was their first playoff victory since the twenty
Speaker 1: eleven season.
Speaker 4: How'd they do that year in the playoffs?
Speaker 1: Was that the year they beat the Cowboys in the
Speaker 1: final game.
Speaker 4: It's like the only outside of last year, the only
Speaker 4: two years that they had success in the playoffs, they
Speaker 4: won the Super Bowl those years. Are you looking it
Speaker 4: up now?
Speaker 1: I was just looking because I thought they came down
Speaker 1: to both teams at the end of the year and
Speaker 1: they beat the Cowboys in the.
Speaker 3: Final game of the season.
Speaker 4: Thirty one fourteen, Everson, tell me about the organization the Giants,
Speaker 4: because it's well respected. You played for the Giants. It
Speaker 4: is one of the most well respected ownership groups going
Speaker 4: way back.
Speaker 6: Yeah, one of the oldest teams. Yep. Yeah.
Speaker 4: What was it like playing for the Giants?
Speaker 5: It was about like being in Dallas with undetec Tramp
Speaker 5: under Tom Lander. They brought a lot of that New
Speaker 5: York style that New York added Toude to the Cowboys.
Speaker 5: Very conservative and everything that they did at the time,
Speaker 5: they might have been cheaper than the Cowboys. George Young
Speaker 5: was just as tough to negotiate with against as gilt Brandt.
Speaker 5: And you know, back then it was all about attitudes
Speaker 5: in the front office, and they had a very prickly
Speaker 5: attitude about everything. You won't get far organ against the machine,
Speaker 5: you know what I mean.
Speaker 6: They are going to be what they are, and I think.
Speaker 5: The only exception they may have had back in those
Speaker 5: part sales days was how they dealt with Lawrence Taylor.
Speaker 5: He was the only exception. Everyone else that they dealt
Speaker 5: with it was pretty much status quo. It was just
Speaker 5: a tightly run ship. We're going to be conservative, our
Speaker 5: coaches are going to be conservative.
Speaker 6: And that's just the way it was. You can't you
Speaker 6: couldn't find any off the field issues.
Speaker 5: You couldn't find any personalities there outside.
Speaker 1: Of unless it was Lawrence Taylor, which, by the way,
Speaker 1: I first time I went there for prior to a
Speaker 1: Cowboys game, and it might have been eighty six season
Speaker 1: eighty that what in eighty seven, I'm going to say
Speaker 1: eighty five eighty six. And so Parcels does his little
Speaker 1: deal in this big room, sits down like he's at
Speaker 1: the head of the table with all the writers and
Speaker 1: dominating the entire day. No question was a good question, right,
Speaker 1: what are you talking about?
Speaker 3: How did you write that?
Speaker 4: You know?
Speaker 1: It was it was like it was almost like a sitcom, right,
Speaker 1: And so you go into the locker room, and everybody's
Speaker 1: supposed to be in the locker room, right except Lawrence Taylor,
Speaker 1: And he made an entrance kind of close to the
Speaker 1: time period that you could be in there and yeah,
Speaker 1: they treated him just a little different than everybody else.
Speaker 4: Well, I mentioned twenty eleven. That was a Super Bowl
Speaker 4: winning season for the Giants, as was two thousand and seven.
Speaker 4: Prior to that, it was nineteen ninety the Giants won
Speaker 4: the Super Bowl, and Mickey, do you happen to know
Speaker 4: who led the team in interceptions that year in nineteen.
Speaker 3: Ninety It must have been Everson Walls.
Speaker 4: He had six picks that year in sixteen.
Speaker 3: Bowl in two thousand and seven, that's what I said.
Speaker 4: Oh, I thought you said eleven and eleven and seven
Speaker 4: and back in nineteen ninety and Everson also had a
Speaker 4: pick in the playoffs.
Speaker 6: That was fun. I almost scored. God, if I was Dion,
Speaker 6: I would have been called by.
Speaker 1: The way, Buddy had the big tackle.
Speaker 6: In that game.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
Speaker 6: Now that surprised everybody.
Speaker 3: What that you tackled me? And if you were, if
Speaker 3: you were Dion, would you have made the tackle?
Speaker 8: No?
Speaker 5: Well, no, Dion was just chased him down. Yeah, that's
Speaker 5: the drama there. I would have if I would have
Speaker 5: made that tackle. According to pars Sales, it.
Speaker 3: Was over which, by the way, I'm.
Speaker 6: Glad I didn't know that at the time.
Speaker 3: I don't know if they added it.
Speaker 1: Do they have an outdoor practice facility.
Speaker 6: Yes, well yeah they it's covered now it is.
Speaker 3: They have a covered okay, because back then they didn't. Right,
Speaker 3: we practiced in the stadium, right, that's what I thought.
Speaker 5: I mean, that's I mean by blue collar, we practiced
Speaker 5: in the stadium. We're out there playing flag football before
Speaker 5: the home game the next day. No one's out there
Speaker 5: sweeping anything up. No, you know, no vacuum me up
Speaker 5: the turf. It's just you know, it's just the most
Speaker 5: exciting thing about that team was that it was next
Speaker 5: to New York City.
Speaker 1: Well they spent some money because I read where they
Speaker 1: got a new uh they put in a new turf
Speaker 1: in the stadium, MetLife And they're calling for a blue out,
Speaker 1: meaning everybody's supposed to wear blue.
Speaker 6: That doesn't have any big impact.
Speaker 5: You think that's going to affect white is more, you know,
Speaker 5: because it's it stands out, stands out.
Speaker 6: But blue.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, their seats are blue, aren't they.
Speaker 6: It's just blue. It's just blue.
Speaker 1: That's why when they when they built FedEx Field, and
Speaker 1: they made the seats colored like red or gold or yellow,
Speaker 1: whatever some of them were. I thought it was to
Speaker 1: hide the fact that there was people missing, because it
Speaker 1: looks like everything's red right, everybody had.
Speaker 5: That they should have they should have changed their red uniforms.
Speaker 3: I think things are things.
Speaker 1: They are going to change there with the new ownership.
Speaker 1: They might even get them a new stadium, which that
Speaker 1: stadium is not that.
Speaker 6: Old, is not They just got it.
Speaker 1: It was ninety seven, ninety eight somewhere in there.
Speaker 4: Well, there was a new baseball park built here thirty
Speaker 4: years after the last room was built. Well, there's a mistake.
Speaker 1: There was not sure what's happening under the roof these days,
Speaker 1: because the ball doesn't seem to stay in the stadium
Speaker 1: or at least the playing field.
Speaker 4: Have you fallen off the Ranger bandwagon ever since?
Speaker 6: No summer you were? I'm still on it.
Speaker 4: I am still on it, by the way, on that topic. Yeah,
Speaker 4: on that topic, no one should have expected the Rangers
Speaker 4: to win last night. Nathan Valdi was pitching in a
Speaker 4: game for the first time in that Yeah, he hadn't pitched.
Speaker 4: He hadn't no rehab stint, no nothing. No, he hadn't
Speaker 4: pitched in a game since July eighteenth against a pitcher
Speaker 4: from a from ber Valdez for the Astros, who had
Speaker 4: threw two no hitters in the last month, a nine
Speaker 4: inning no hitter in a seven inning no hit.
Speaker 1: All he had done was bullpen session.
Speaker 6: I trust the man, so it's all about to trust.
Speaker 4: It's all about tonight. I think he Sureser versus Verlander tonight.
Speaker 7: Like nice.
Speaker 3: If we could all watch it on TV.
Speaker 6: Why can't we? I can? Oh?
Speaker 3: Okay, well I can't.
Speaker 4: I don't have it either at home, but I watch
Speaker 4: it at work. Oh that was a Bali Sports comment.
Speaker 6: I am going to watch it somewhere. Can't I can
Speaker 6: I watch it?
Speaker 3: You have to go somewhere maybe. Okay, you know what
Speaker 3: I've done. I turned going to old school listen on
Speaker 3: the radio.
Speaker 6: I can't imagine that Vicky's got old school.
Speaker 4: Who are the fund he's gonna.
Speaker 6: Have, Like the big satellite out in front of your house?
Speaker 6: Do what you have? Big satellite?
Speaker 4: Big satellite?
Speaker 3: I never had one to know.
Speaker 4: If he had that, he'd have direct he'd be able
Speaker 4: to get Bali Sports right. All right, our final couple
Speaker 4: of minutes here mix shot, and by the way, we
Speaker 4: need a mix shot. Was that your mix shot.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it was, by the way, where John Smelk's
Speaker 1: gonna join us tomorrow give us an update on the Giants.
Speaker 4: Okay, so we can look forward to that, because clearly
Speaker 4: what I said about the Giants today didn't impress either
Speaker 4: one of you.
Speaker 1: Well, you want somebody that actually knows if they practiced
Speaker 1: outdoors or they were practicing under a roof because of
Speaker 1: the oppressive heat in New York City, And we'll find
Speaker 1: out about that guy that you mentioned I can't find.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, if you let me ask you this, what
Speaker 4: is it that you most want in our last couple
Speaker 4: of minutes. What is it you're looking forward to most
Speaker 4: from the Cowboys on Sunday night seeing on that field,
Speaker 4: whether it's an individual player.
Speaker 1: I want to see this offense get off to a
Speaker 1: faster start than they did last year. If you remember
Speaker 1: the season opener they scored all of three points in
Speaker 1: the season opener against Tampa Bay that they ended up
Speaker 1: scoring all those points a getting some of the before
Speaker 1: and since they've added some new dimensions to the offense,
Speaker 1: to see if it is as dynamic as it was
Speaker 1: in almost every game last year that Dak Press got
Speaker 1: played except for the first one, the last one, and
Speaker 1: the second playoff game.
Speaker 6: That seems to be accurate.
Speaker 4: What are you looking forward to, Everson?
Speaker 5: I am looking forward to them. Stop adhering to the narratives,
Speaker 5: you know. I think they need to realize that there's
Speaker 5: no one out there more important than who's in that
Speaker 5: locker room. And there are times when they come play
Speaker 5: a game that they don't trust each other. I wish
Speaker 5: I hope that they come into each game. How can
Speaker 5: I say feeling like it's them against the world, because
Speaker 5: it really is. You talk about all the as you
Speaker 5: have out here, some of you on Cowboy fans don't
Speaker 5: even trust you, and I think they need to have
Speaker 5: more trust in themselves. As long as they trust themselves
Speaker 5: all season long, I feel better about them.
Speaker 3: Well, look who's there? It was back up the tackle.
Speaker 4: I've been searching for what's going on with roaches? Mickey
Speaker 4: says he's not on the depth chart. I was like,
Speaker 4: is there an injury? What's going on? And so I'm
Speaker 4: doing all this this search on the internet trying to
Speaker 4: find an injury on raccom roach No, no, wait.
Speaker 5: So you always have to consider the source as what
Speaker 5: you're saying.
Speaker 3: No, you know what it.
Speaker 6: Is if the source can't be trusted.
Speaker 4: You know, anybody else's name name is so long that
Speaker 4: it's in a smaller.
Speaker 3: It's tiller type.
Speaker 1: It's like a six point, like a catch your eyes,
Speaker 1: well didn't I just saw a Shawan Robinson.
Speaker 3: I started there with a little big name.
Speaker 4: It's a little smaller front size.
Speaker 6: That mystery than just right, yeah, sitting there.
Speaker 4: Going how I spent all morning looking at the giants,
Speaker 4: and I had all this stuff built up, and then
Speaker 4: he throws me this curveball.
Speaker 6: We don't have time to cover his ass.
Speaker 4: He gives me this curveball. That rakeem Nuna's roaches isn't
Speaker 4: even on their depth chart.
Speaker 1: I just scanned it and I don't see him. It
Speaker 1: was like the picture right.
Speaker 6: There right expected him to be exactly okay.
Speaker 4: Exactly okay, all right, he's in that rotation.
Speaker 3: On that Thank god he got to the bottom of
Speaker 3: that okay.
Speaker 6: And no one still cares.
Speaker 3: I figured they don't even think he's.
Speaker 4: Important, small their big free agency.
Speaker 3: Well why is he back up?
Speaker 4: Well, because they do a rotation, just like the Cowboys.
Speaker 4: Why did the Cowboys Buzzie Smith their first round draft pick?
Speaker 4: And he's not he's not starting, is he He's not right,
Speaker 4: but he is going to play.
Speaker 1: They do have jehad Ward. Yes, they do recognize that name.
Speaker 1: Yep okay Man at.
Speaker 4: The University of Illinois.
Speaker 3: All right, by way of the Cowboys, there you go.
Speaker 4: All right, we will see you again maybe tomorrow here
Speaker 4: on mix shots at high noon.
Speaker 1: You think our practice part is over with, They're.
Speaker 6: Gonna cancel this show. That's what they're gonna do. Go Cowboys.
Speaker 1: This has been a production of Dallascowboys dot Com and
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
