1
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com

2
00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club Cowboys. This is Cowboys

3
00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 1: Storyline with Nick Eatman.

4
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:25,240
Speaker 2: What is up everyone? Welcome to Cowboys Storyline. I am

5
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 2: Nick Eatman. It is Wednesday, January the third. We're just

6
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 2: rolling right along here in twenty twenty four, getting the

7
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:38,200
Speaker 2: Cowboys ready for their regular season finale against the Washington Commanders.

8
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:42,280
Speaker 2: And that'll be Sunday at four twenty five Eastern time,

9
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 2: three thirty Central. Should be a good one Cowboys and

10
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 2: taking on Washington. The Giants and Eagles playing at the

11
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 2: exact same time. NFL does that on purpose, make sure

12
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 2: that everyone plays their their guys. So the Cowboys, obviously,

13
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 2: if they win, they will be the NFC East champions.

14
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 2: Of regard what happens with the Giants game. If the

15
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:06,759
Speaker 2: Giants do beat Philadelphia, then the Cowboys will also win,

16
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,039
Speaker 2: and then both teams tie. If that happens, then both

17
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:13,039
Speaker 2: the Cowboys would win that as well based off of tiebreakers.

18
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 2: The only scenario the Cowboys do not win the NFC

19
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:17,759
Speaker 2: East is if they lose to Washington and the Eagles

20
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 2: beat the Giants. So don't even worry about that Cowboys

21
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 2: got to take care of business against Washington. They have

22
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 2: lost seven in a row. Obviously they're going to try

23
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 2: to bring it here for this last game. It is

24
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 2: a little interesting though scenario with the Commanders have the

25
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 2: number two overall pick. I think if they win, based

26
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 2: off of some other things, they could be the fourth pick.

27
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 2: So if they lose, they will be the number two pick.

28
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:46,120
Speaker 2: So there's probably some people in the organization that want that.

29
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,279
Speaker 2: Of course, the head coach he's probably not gonna be around,

30
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 2: so he didn't really care about that. So interesting, all right,

31
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 2: So the Cowboys are going to be going up that way,

32
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 2: and I think our first two callers are from that

33
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 2: way in Virginia. We're gonna get to that. Eight eight

34
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 2: eight eight five is the number to call. Let's start

35
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 2: us off with Irene in Virginia.

36
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 3: Hey, Nick, good morning.

37
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 2: Good morning. How are you doing well.

38
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 4: I'm excited for this game?

39
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 2: Are you going?

40
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 4: I am going.

41
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 5: I got the tickets.

42
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 4: The Eagles lost, Like, get those tickets.

43
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 2: What's the weather forecast?

44
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:24,519
Speaker 3: So it's much.

45
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,800
Speaker 4: Better than when Okay, so I get the tickets and

46
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 4: I look not in the right order, but anyway, it

47
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 4: was calling for ten inches of snow, and I was like,

48
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 4: we don't even we never do that anyway. No, it's fine.

49
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 4: It's going to be cold. The highest forty four around

50
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,359
Speaker 4: three o'clock, so it's and it's gonna there's gonna be

51
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 4: a little bit of wind. That's one thing that's concerned

52
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:50,359
Speaker 4: me a bit. But no precipitation anymore. So that's helpful.

53
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 2: Nice.

54
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, the wind.

55
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 4: We'll see. I have a feeling it's going to die

56
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 4: down too, so we'll see. But it'll be chilling for sure.

57
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 4: You had me rolling yesterday with the analogy about the

58
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 4: onion rings. I was like, this is exactly, this is

59
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 4: exactly if.

60
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 2: You put your order in and they don't get it wrong.

61
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:12,640
Speaker 2: I mean, that's on you. You you just heard it.

62
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 2: So yeah, yep.

63
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,799
Speaker 4: The one person who did absolutely nothing wrong is the cowboys.

64
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 4: That's what I was saying about it, like, don't give

65
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 4: us fluck.

66
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 2: Yeah you know, yeah yeah, And I have a point

67
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 2: to that. After the call, after your call, I'm going

68
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 2: to kind of I didn't say yesterday that I think

69
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:30,959
Speaker 2: maybe just put an into all this, But what else

70
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 2: is on your mind? What else you got?

71
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 4: So I wanted to give you. Now, this is a

72
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 4: little bit short term trivia. So and it actually might

73
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 4: be harder for you. I guess from what because my

74
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 4: first game ever there was twenty nineteen, and then of

75
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 4: course I said I'm never going to miss a game,

76
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 4: and of course the next year was COVID, so I

77
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 4: we all missed that game.

78
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 2: So for you, I was there, I was there.

79
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 6: Yeah.

80
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 7: But the trivia from that twenty nineteen game, can you

81
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 7: name the big play yardage and player on offense twenty nineteen?

82
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 2: See, that's that's my problem is because if you would

83
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 2: have said nineteen eighty three when I was seven, I

84
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 2: could tell you. But twenty nineteen, like that one isn't

85
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 2: isn't ringing a bell? Was that? That wasn't the rain game?

86
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 8: Was it?

87
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,599
Speaker 2: Where it was rainy? That was seventeen? I don't know who.

88
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:22,920
Speaker 2: What was the score of the game.

89
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 4: Ooh do you know what?

90
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 9: I don't know that.

91
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, so it was it was a good score for us.

92
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 4: We won it.

93
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 2: We won twenty nineteen. Up there. I mean I could

94
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 2: remember all that if I just kind of remember the game.

95
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 2: That's what that's my problem. The short term memory.

96
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 3: Is not good.

97
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 4: Well, it was in September, so it was one of

98
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 4: the few ones lately that we've actually had in the

99
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 4: in good weather.

100
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get this. I'm gonna get this. I'm gonna

101
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:48,600
Speaker 2: get this. Let me just I just need to see

102
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 2: I just need to see the score. I didn't to

103
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 2: see the score of the game. Okay, all right, so

104
00:04:54,800 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 2: thirty one twenty one, week two actually O okay, okay,

105
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 2: I got it. I got it. I got it. So

106
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 2: the Cowboys, the Cowboys when they get the player you're

107
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 2: talking about is an obscure player. Yep, Devin Smith. Yes,

108
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 2: Devin Smith caught like a fifty yard touchdown over the middle,

109
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 2: like to win, I mean, not to win the game.

110
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 2: I think this game was not as close as the score.

111
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 2: I think they were blowing him out earlier. Yeah, MARII

112
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:27,840
Speaker 2: Cooper had a couple of touchdowns maybe, Sorry, it took

113
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:29,719
Speaker 2: me a little bit to remember that one. But yet

114
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 2: Devin Smith and it was. Yeah. I thought Devin Smith

115
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,239
Speaker 2: was going to be a pretty good player, honestly, because

116
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 2: he was got a lot of speed. He was he

117
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,359
Speaker 2: had that speed I had always been talking about.

118
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 4: So all right, my only question for you today, I'm

119
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 4: and I take it off this fine. Uh Jacoby Brissette.

120
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 4: He thinks to me, I don't think there's any reports

121
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 4: on if he's playing. I think that matters, but not

122
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 4: that Sam Howildan beat us last year.

123
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 2: But yeah, if you could discuss that would be great,

124
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 2: and thank you for I appreciate that. Dan Quinn said

125
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 2: that they're going to be preparing for two a quarterback

126
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 2: this week. They haven't made an announcement and they probably won't.

127
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 2: You know, those old school coaches like that think that

128
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 2: that's that matters, and maybe it does, so they you know,

129
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:17,559
Speaker 2: they'll they'll be preparing for both. But I mean, let's

130
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,839
Speaker 2: be honest that it's not like you're preparing for like

131
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 2: Brady or you know, like Manning. I mean, it's it's

132
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 2: Preseid or Sam Howe. So you should be able. You

133
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 2: should be able to win the game. Neither one of

134
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 2: them should should really hurt you that bad. Obviously different

135
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 2: type of quarterback, but I think the Cowboys should be fine.

136
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 2: There my point I was going to make about that

137
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 2: sixty eight eligible seventy whatever. Chris Beaman and I looked

138
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 2: at this play yesterday after the show and just just

139
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 2: remember this part that number seventy Taylor Deck. I mean

140
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 2: I'm sorry. Was Dan Skipper who used to play for

141
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 2: the Cowboys, or at least was that training camp with

142
00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 2: the Cowboys. Seventy was was the one that was reported eligible.

143
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 2: And he lines up at the tackle position and Damon

144
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 2: Clark and Marque's bell are right in his face. They're

145
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 2: all over. I mean, he's not gonna do anything. Now,

146
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 2: he's not trying to do anything, but he's not going

147
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 2: to do anything. And the point to that is he

148
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 2: was the guy that they announced as eligible, So keep

149
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 2: an eye on him. He's not going anywhere. If sixty

150
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 2: eight was the guy they would have announced, don't think

151
00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 2: that he's just gonna sneak to the back of the

152
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 2: uin zone and catch a touchdown pass like he did.

153
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 2: So that's that's the thing. I mean that that's what's

154
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 2: getting lost in some of this is that that you

155
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 2: know it was just gonna be a touchdown and the

156
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 2: Cowboys are just going to play it the exact same way.

157
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 2: Doesn't work that way, all right, Shelby and Virginia is

158
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:45,920

169
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,200

170
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 11: could do it on the show, I thought that'd be fun.

171
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 2: That's that that would that would be interesting. Chris is

180
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 11: rather see can go to a Cowboys fan.

181
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 2: So well, you just by throwing it out there right there,

182
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,440

183
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 2: right there. It's just if somebody's going to hit you up.

184
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 2: I hope there are they electronic tickets.

185
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 11: Yes, yeah, I can transform pretty easily.

186
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 2: So okay, well, and I don't want to be that person.

187
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 2: Not never mind, I'm I can ask that person. That's cool.

188
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 2: They're in the stadium, right, Yeah, they're.

189
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 11: Actually they're in the section right by the away tunnel.

190
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,440
Speaker 2: Nothing. Nothing, Nothing irritates me more when you ask someone,

191
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:13,320
Speaker 2: You're like, hey, would you like tickets to the game,

192

Speaker 2: They're in the free section, that's the one.

195
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 11: So yeah, yeah, yeah, no, they're they're lower level. But

196
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:26,199

197
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,520

199
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 11: could talk, I'm going to bring it to the stadium.

200
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 11: I'm going to be hanging out when the team gets

201
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 11: off the buses. If you wanted to sign it, I

202
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 11: know you're on the clock, so there's literally zero pressure.

203
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 2: I'll sign it. Are you where are you gonna be?

204
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:45,560
Speaker 2: Are you gonna be in the stadium? Are you taking

205
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 2: the stadium? When you take in to that hotel, we.

206
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,959
Speaker 11: Will be at the stadium where the bus is unload.

207
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 2: Oh, okay, all right, I'll be I'll be on the

208
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 2: first bus. Okay, I'll be on I'll be on the

209
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 2: first bus. We'll get there one one thirty. It doesn't

210
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:04,679
Speaker 2: seem like a conversation that we have it on the air,

211
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 2: but whatever. Anyways, that's fun.

212
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 11: Yeah, my dad will be there.

213
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 2: You will definitely sign it for you. I'll sign it. Yeah, yeah,

214
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 2: I'll sign if you go to a bar, if you

215
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 2: have his book, he'll sign it. All right, Chris, all right,

216
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 2: it happened in Charlotte. It happened. And what's funny is

217
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 2: when they're like, oh, do you have a sharpie? You know,

218
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:24,720
Speaker 2: Chris is like, oh, he's got his own. He's got

219
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 2: his own, Like just carry them.

220
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 13: Hey, hey, I did not mind.

221
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,280
Speaker 2: We got free drinks out of it. We did. We

222
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 2: did awesome.

223
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,839
Speaker 11: I wish I could bring a drink or something.

224
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 2: No, it's okay, game day, you know on the clock.

225
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:40,960
Speaker 11: That that makes sense. Also, I usually don't listen to the

226
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 11: first few episodes after a loss, not because the show

227
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 11: is not great, but just you know, but I had

228
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,199
Speaker 11: to go back and listen to because I just kept

229
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:55,319
Speaker 11: hearing about the infamous Wednesday show of last there's a

230
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 11: few sound drops that should be vaulted and kept in

231
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:00,560
Speaker 11: the cow media.

232
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,960
Speaker 2: Oh, Chris, Chris will do that. He's got that. I

233
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 2: didn't think it was that bad until the show was

234
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 2: over and people were like, all right, all right, and

235
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 2: then my mom called, She's like, are you okay? You know, no,

236
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 2: it was fine, you know, we're just we're just chatting.

237
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 2: But yeah, I did go back and watch it. I

238
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 2: was kind of annoying. So no, no, I mean, it's

239
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 2: all good, it's all good. But but yeah, I mean

240
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,320
Speaker 2: that's what happens. Hey, this team doesn't make it to

241
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 2: the super Bowl, which of course I've never seen him

242
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,559
Speaker 2: make it to the super Bowl. The show after that,

243
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 2: after that loss, if if they you know, losing the playoffs,

244
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 2: that's going to be interesting. I mean, the whole week

245
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 2: if shows is going to be interesting. But anyway, I don't.

246
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 11: Know if I'll be able to do that first one.

247
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 11: But I'll give you a talking points until I did,

248
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:48,320
Speaker 11: you know, pitch myself on Sunday Tickets and whatnot. Uh,

249
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 11: just favorite regular season you've covered. Obviously the playoffs are

250
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 11: going to make a few of those stainfuls, but just

251
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 11: the best time you had as a writer covering the

252
00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 11: team in the record.

253
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 2: All right, sounds good, thank you, thank you, sheby. I mean,

254
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 2: you know, they've all ended with a loss pretty much.

255
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 2: I mean except for like the year when you like

256
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:15,199
Speaker 2: win your regular season finale, like twenty nineteen or twenty seventeen,

257
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 2: when you're out of the playoffs and you still win.

258
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 2: I mean, that's not even fun either. My first one

259
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,679
Speaker 2: is just so memorable to me. Ninety nine is just

260
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 2: so memorable because I didn't know what I was doing.

261
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 2: Debatable if I still do, but I mean just just

262
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,719
Speaker 2: going through and traveling, you know, like we're going to

263
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 2: travel to this game with ten people in our staff,

264
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 2: like like our staff has about about ten, and that

265
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 2: ninety nine season, it was just me. I mean it

266
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 2: was just me. I was the only person kind of

267
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,840
Speaker 2: doing that, and so I didn't know what I was doing.

268
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,440
Speaker 2: And that season was interesting because they won the first

269
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 2: road game and then they lost every other road game

270
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 2: that year. So they were seven and one at home

271
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 2: and one in seven on the road. You talk about

272
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 2: a different you know, like all this team's good road

273
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,080
Speaker 2: team are a bad road team and a good home team.

274
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 2: That ninety nine team, I mean, that was like two

275
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 2: different teams. A lot of stuff happened, you know, Emmitt, Troy,

276
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 2: and Michael all were there. Dion. So that ninety nine

277
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 2: that's still though the most memorable because I got to

278
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,679
Speaker 2: remember ten years before that or nine years. I'm a

279
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 2: young kid and you know, high school and stuff, and

280
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 2: I'm i'm you know, I'm I'm cheering for Troy and

281
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 2: Dion and Michael and Emmett. Maybe not Dion then, but

282
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,199
Speaker 2: you know what I mean, I love Dion even when

283
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 2: he didn't play for the Cowboys, and and so then

284
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 2: in ninety nine to be in the locker room like wow,

285
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 2: like I'm covering this team, these guys. So that was

286
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 2: always still still the most memorable because of you know,

287
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,439
Speaker 2: just kind of a pinch yourself type moment. All right,

288
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 2: Ali in Florida, Good morning, Good morning. Oh do you

289
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 2: have trivia for me?

290
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 5: Not today? Okay, good I'm gotta tell you something. I'm

291
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 5: working on it. If it's for you and a crypt

292
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 5: find it together. If you get it right, I would

293
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 5: send you the most awesome wildlife image that you would

294
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 5: love for both of you. So just to say to it,

295
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 5: I got home from Africa, I mean made it to

296
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 5: the game. What a picking game. I don't think. I

297
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,680
Speaker 5: don't I like this close game. It's so nerve wreaking.

298
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 5: But the result was great. A couple things I heard

299
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 5: you said yesterday you had a cough. I would suggest,

300
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 5: as Derek, to give you your own personal microphone, and

301
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 5: I don't know you guys had it or use the

302
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 5: same microphone. But everybody breathe into it. But you're not alone.

303
00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 5: I have a cough everywhere internationally. Everywhere I go, everybody

304
00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 5: has back off and nobody knows what it is. So

305
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:07,400
Speaker 5: I just want to give you that. Then I was

306
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:11,760
Speaker 5: looking at this draft order. I don't know you already

307
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 5: covered it in the show. Now Washington is number two,

308
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 5: four and twelve. Then it's pat and carding off the

309
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 5: tight off. Then you got Giants, chargers and tight and

310
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 5: at five eleven if they win, they're going to drop

311
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 5: down to seven or eight positions. And I know the

312
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 5: new owner they want to start the beginning, new beginning,

313
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:39,280
Speaker 5: and all this quarterback on top of the draft. I

314
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 5: would like to know what goes on behind the scene.

315
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:46,800
Speaker 5: But the players, they just want to revenge because the

316
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 5: boat on taboys beat the hell out of them. It's

317
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 5: just like they're all ready to It's just like spoil

318
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 5: it for us. And the last take I have is

319
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 5: they covered up the Detroit game. And I think, personally,

320
00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 5: I'm so insulted by h Campbell to go to that

321
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 5: low class confuse the Cowboys or referee. It's just like,

322
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 5: come on, man, your team is good enough stopped.

323
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, well all right, all right, thanks for the thanks

324
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 2: for the call. Good points, good point. Listen. I Uh,

325
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 2: I covered Dan Campbell when he was here. I I

326
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 2: liked him as as a player, and I've seen him

327
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 2: a couple of times over the years at the Senior

328
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 2: Bowls and combined, you know, when he was coaching, and

329
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 2: I have a lot of respect for him, and I

330
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 2: like the way he does it. Uh he coaches just

331
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 2: like he played, and uh, he wasn't the most talented guy,

332
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 2: most athletic, but that fire and grit that you see

333
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 2: as a coach is what he did as a player

334
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 2: to kind of get him to that point. And he

335
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 2: coaches that way. So I don't think it was low class.

336
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 2: The Cowboys are the better team than the Lions. I

337
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,439
Speaker 2: don't care what anyone says. They're better than Detroit, not

338
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,159
Speaker 2: by a lot and if they go to Detroit. Hey,

339
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,120
Speaker 2: if they had to play in Detroit, it would be

340
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 2: a really tough game. But I think we all if

341
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 2: Ceedee Lamb can score a touchdown to go at fourteen

342
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:32,919
Speaker 2: to three, who knows what that score is going to be.

343
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:37,200
Speaker 2: The Cowboys were better than Detroit, and I know it,

344
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:41,120
Speaker 2: you guys know it, and Dan Campbell knew it. Dan

345
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 2: Campbell knows that I'm gonna go score right now because

346
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 2: I'm not going to overtime and trying to stop Ceedee

347
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 2: Lamb again not not doing it. Think. I don't think

348
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 2: it's low class trick plays or trick plays. They tried

349
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,360
Speaker 2: to do it. They tried to get cute. Didn't work,

350
00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 2: But as I said earlier, it wouldn't have I mean,

351
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:01,679
Speaker 2: I don't it wouldn't have mattered. The Cowboy's still going

352
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:03,879
Speaker 2: to cover that. So now are they going to be

353
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:09,000
Speaker 2: all on sides? And who knows? All right, here we go.

354
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 2: We got Bryce in Salt Lake City.

355
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 9: How's it going?

356
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:13,880
Speaker 2: How you doing?

357
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:14,160
Speaker 14: Man?

358
00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 9: First time postom caller and the sexton a few times too.

359
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,919
Speaker 2: Here we go? All right, Thanks? Bryce? What do you

360
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 2: got so? I?

361
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 9: Uh, looking back at one of the message I sent

362
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,679
Speaker 9: to you and brought up to the bye week and

363
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:38,360
Speaker 9: the Eagles loss about so Brandon Cooks and Tyron Smithy

364
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,679
Speaker 9: and the the MVP in the second half of the season,

365
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 9: and you brought up back and you were right on point.

366
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,520
Speaker 9: He's been playing absolutely out of his mind with CD

367
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,200
Speaker 9: and I kind of want to see where you're at

368
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 9: with going into the playoffs, going into Washington. You know

369
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,480
Speaker 9: how the defense and offense can help each other a

370
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 9: bit more without the bending break and yeah, what you

371
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:07,159
Speaker 9: see what Presh got doing and what needs to happen

372
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:08,879
Speaker 9: over the next few weeks.

373
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,639
Speaker 2: All right, all right, I will thank you, Thanks Bryce

374
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,159
Speaker 2: for the call. Can we get it here? We go

375
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 2: for Bryce Chris. We're busy, but this is a man

376
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:19,080
Speaker 2: in the phones.

377
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,360
Speaker 7: No, it went, but it was all screwed up, so

378
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 7: I had to fix it.

379
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:30,280
Speaker 2: Sorry, So he got to he got to awesome interesting

380
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 2: point about about you know, Dak and you know m

381
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:34,679
Speaker 2: v P I talk. You know he's not gonna be

382
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,680
Speaker 2: the m v P. I think I think Lamar Jackson's

383
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 2: got that one there, but you know, I think he's

384
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 2: in He's in the running. Uh. Tonight the Pro Bowl

385
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 2: comes out. Pro Bowl Announcement and uh be interesting to

386
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:53,360
Speaker 2: see how many cowboys make it. I'm thinking, uh anywhere

387
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,440
Speaker 2: from like I mean, it's got to be six. Six

388
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:57,880
Speaker 2: is six would be a Travis d if you don't

389
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 2: have six, so we we those are easy. I mean

390
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,800
Speaker 2: you know that that's gonna happen. Seven, I'm thinking seven

391
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,640
Speaker 2: or eight, you know, because I mean, without a doubt,

392
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:13,200
Speaker 2: Ceedee Lamb and Dak and uh Zach Martin, Micah Deron,

393
00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:17,120
Speaker 2: Bland Aubrey, those six are in. I mean that there'll

394
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 2: be some there'll be some explaining to do that isn't

395
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 2: the case. Then after that, you know, Tyler Smith. I

396
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,159
Speaker 2: think Tyler Smith has it, has a shot. Tyron Smith.

397
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,480
Speaker 2: I think I think you need to look at Jake Ferguson,

398
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 2: but that's gonna be tough. Ferguson though maybe Turpin uh

399
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 2: hasn't doesn't really qualify, hadn't had a lot of returns

400
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:43,719
Speaker 2: as a return specialist. Anger, I mean, Brian Ainger's had

401
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:45,919
Speaker 2: a really good year. It's quiet because of what Aubrey's done.

402
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,399
Speaker 2: But Anger is a guy that I think you know

403
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 2: has a has a good chance as well. So I'm

404
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 2: thinking somewhere between seven or eight, nine, maybe would be

405
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:57,199
Speaker 2: really a lot, but uh, definitely has to be six

406
00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:00,680
Speaker 2: to night and as Dak Dak's played great. But I'll

407
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,439
Speaker 2: say this about the playoffs to answer your question, if

408
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,200
Speaker 2: they get this number two seed, I mean, think about

409
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 2: the games they haven't played well in. You know, they

410
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,199
Speaker 2: haven't played well when if it's cold, it's rainy. Now

411
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,840
Speaker 2: they got to play in some cold this game. But

412
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 2: if you can get the number two seed, I mean,

413
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 2: your first two playoff games, if you can, if you

414
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:21,639
Speaker 2: get there, are gonna be home and then then we're

415
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:24,159
Speaker 2: I mean then if you go on the road, it's

416
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 2: gonna be San Francisco, which I mean it's not gonna

417
00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 2: be not gonna be that cold. You know, it's not

418
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:33,159
Speaker 2: gonna be snowy. So I mean number two seed is

419
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,360
Speaker 2: really important to get out of the cold weather. But ironically,

420
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:38,679
Speaker 2: to get there, you got to beat Washington in the

421
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 2: cold weather weather. All right, Brian in Kansas City, Good.

422
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:47,120
Speaker 8: Morning, sir, How are you doing. I'm all right, I'm alright, man.

423
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,920
Speaker 8: I got a couple of questions regarding the move yesterday

424
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:52,680
Speaker 8: with bringing Lael Collins back.

425
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,879
Speaker 2: Not official, not official as of this morning. As of

426
00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 2: right now, this show ten twenty two Am Central. I

427
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 2: don't believe the Cowboys have done that, but I think

428
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 2: that they're going to Lyell. Thinks they're going to oh Man.

429
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:08,360
Speaker 8: And I don't know where I saw it. I saw

430
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,720
Speaker 8: that they signed them to the practice squad and they.

431
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 2: Probably will and that's what they're going to do. But uh,

432
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,679
Speaker 2: from when I was told before went on that he

433
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,919
Speaker 2: probably won't be on the practice squad when they go

434
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,600
Speaker 2: to practice here in about hour and a half. But

435
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:27,480
Speaker 2: it's probably going to happen. So let's answer the question.

436
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:32,120
Speaker 8: Well, my question is, well two parts. One is how

437
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 8: do elevations work once the season is over, Like you know,

438
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 8: you only get three during the year. Does it change

439
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:41,679
Speaker 8: for the playoffs? And then my other question is what

440
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 8: do I want to know your opinion? And then what

441
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 8: do you think the team's going to do? So for me,

442
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,399
Speaker 8: it's better than a Doga. He's probably better than a

443
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 8: Doga now, even though he hadn't played all year. I mean,

444
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:55,760
Speaker 8: I know he's going to have to shake the rust off,

445
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:59,920
Speaker 8: but Doga just scares me on the left side. I mean,

446
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 8: just that was just terrifying watching that game.

447
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:07,920
Speaker 2: He he's got junkyard dog That's what Lyle Collins has

448
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:13,200
Speaker 2: and that's what this team needs. And so I don't know,

449
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 2: you know, from the practice squad elevation if you're going

450
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:18,840
Speaker 2: to just be a backup or whatever, but if he

451
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:22,840
Speaker 2: has to play. Apparently the workout went really well, you know,

452
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 2: considering maybe what they thought he would be, you know,

453
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:27,959
Speaker 2: weight it's been an issue for him and you're not

454
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 2: playing all year long or and then you know, to

455
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 2: be this point in the season and be ready to

456
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:35,520
Speaker 2: have that kind of workout that was that was impressive.

457
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 2: So I think he will be on the team. I

458
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:40,679
Speaker 2: think he will be on the practice squad and they

459
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 2: can elevate him. But you have another question.

460
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:46,800
Speaker 8: Yeah, no, I just had an old timer for you.

461
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,120
Speaker 8: I hadn't asked you about a staff member in a while.

462
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 8: You gave us the Burry Church marshmallow candy story, so

463
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 8: I was wondering if maybe you had a story on

464
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 8: Jesse Holly and I'll hang up. I have a great day, brother.

465
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I have a documentary on Jesse Holly that

466
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 2: we did from Reality. Uh, thanks for watching from Hollywood.

467
00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:12,399
Speaker 2: I don't know from reality to Hollywood. It was the documentary. Yeah, Jesse,

468
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:18,439
Speaker 2: Jesse's story is amazing. I mean it's there's just no

469
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:20,080
Speaker 2: other way to say it. I mean, weirdly when you

470
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:26,440
Speaker 2: when you think of it. Now, to me, the movie Invincible,

471
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,119
Speaker 2: okay with Mark Wahlberg and the Eagles, and he's a

472
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 2: special teams guyde the moment of the movie, I mean

473
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,800
Speaker 2: he makes like a special teams tackle against the Giants.

474
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's the movie. Like, that's that's the point.

475
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 2: So played three years or whatever. Vince Papali was his name.

476
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:46,879
Speaker 2: But Jesse Holly story is just as good, if not better,

477
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,120
Speaker 2: you know, I mean because all that stuff you see

478
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 2: in the movie. Who knows if that's real or not,

479
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:53,960
Speaker 2: I don't know, but I know that Jesse went through

480
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:59,000
Speaker 2: is just it's just phenomenal, you know, to a reality

481
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 2: TV show that's never been done. It's never been done

482
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:06,119
Speaker 2: to get a spot on the team, you know, Michael

483
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,640
Speaker 2: Irvin's reality show and he wins it and then gets

484
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:14,439
Speaker 2: there and you know, and to me, though not the

485
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,679
Speaker 2: forty nine er game, the forty nine er game is

486
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:18,920
Speaker 2: not the one where you know, the seventy seven yard catch,

487
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 2: that's that would be the end of the movie, right,

488
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 2: he does that, But the one that got him on

489
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,399
Speaker 2: the map. That was kind of so crazy was the

490
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 2: was the Minnesota playoff I'm sorry, preseason Minnesota in like

491
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:35,480
Speaker 2: twenty ten, where it's the last game. He hasn't done

492
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 2: a whole lot in the preseason, probably not going to

493
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 2: make the team or the practice squad, and a punt

494
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 2: just bounces. He's not the returner. It just bounces right

495
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:46,440
Speaker 2: to him. He's like the jammer guy on the side,

496
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 2: bounces right to him, picks it up, he turns, runs

497
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,159
Speaker 2: seventy five yards for a touchdown. The Cowboys win the

498
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,959
Speaker 2: game against Minnesota. He makes the practice squad. Just the

499
00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:00,920
Speaker 2: irony of what happens when the ball all bounces your way.

500
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,880
Speaker 2: That ball hadn't been bouncing Jesse Holly's way his whole life,

501
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:06,679
Speaker 2: and it bounces right to him. What do you do

502
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 2: with an opportunity? You take it to the house and

503
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 2: you score. And that right there, that's what opened everything

504
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:17,560
Speaker 2: up for Jesse Holly to me, if you haven't seen

505
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 2: the documentary, it's great. And here's another thing about it

506
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,919
Speaker 2: is that Jesse was a producer for us on that

507
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:28,640
Speaker 2: he made that thing happen. He drove us around New

508
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:33,240
Speaker 2: Jersey and these places and he set up all the interviews,

509
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 2: all it was. It was phenomenal and I'm so disappointed

510
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 2: that we didn't win an Emmy for him. It was nominated,

511
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:44,359
Speaker 2: but it didn't win. And I'm so disappointed because he

512
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,680
Speaker 2: would have won it and he deserved. His stories is amazing.

513
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 2: So I don't know if that was the story he

514
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,240
Speaker 2: wanted me to tell, but that's what That's the only

515
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,800
Speaker 2: thing I could think of when you ask about Jesse Holly.

516
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 2: All right, Bruce in Houston, Hey, Nick, thanks.

517
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 15: For taking my call out. That's pretty cool story. That's

518
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 15: what I like about you. You've got all these little

519
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 15: back stories that we don't get to know, you know,

520
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:10,960
Speaker 15: unless we know the man personally. That's pretty cool. You

521
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,760
Speaker 15: kind of stole my You kind of stole my my

522
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:19,040
Speaker 15: thunder a little bit. It's setting up nice for Dallas,

523
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:23,199
Speaker 15: like you said, uh, weatherwise, the first two rounds, if

524
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,360
Speaker 15: they get through them, they just gotta I would hope

525
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 15: Dallas takes it out of Washington, you know, takes their

526
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:29,639
Speaker 15: heart out.

527
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:30,280
Speaker 6: Right off the bat.

528
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 15: If they if they do, you know, then all the better.

529
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 15: My question to you, because they've got it set up,

530
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 15: they should they should be able to at least get

531
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 15: to the championship game. I mean, I know the teams

532
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 15: are gonna play are tough, don't get me wrong. They

533
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 15: want to play the Rams or even Seattle at this juncture.

534
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 15: But at home, I'll take my chances for the Packers.

535
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:55,520
Speaker 15: I'll take my chances with all of them. The team

536
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 15: that we can't get over is San Francisco and until

537
00:27:58,040 --> 00:27:59,919
Speaker 15: we do that. So my question to you is not

538
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:05,119
Speaker 15: not Debbie Downer today. If McCarthy doesn't get them to

539
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 15: at least that, I just don't know how you can

540
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 15: go on with him, especially with his clock management that

541
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 15: he's done since he's been here. Really I wanted you

542
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:17,639
Speaker 15: to talk about that. I love the Collins pick up

543
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 15: because I think we need a depth, and you said it.

544
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 3: He's a dog.

545
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,320
Speaker 15: In fact, he could probably play left guard if he

546
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:26,960
Speaker 15: had to, because I believe he is more of a

547
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 15: guard than tackle.

548
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:28,080
Speaker 14: Correct.

549
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:31,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, and probably right now would just just you know,

550
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,400
Speaker 2: just hadn't played a lot. I would think God would

551
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:34,440
Speaker 2: be better for him.

552
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 15: I think so too. And they're covering their bets in case,

553
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 15: you know, Smith can't go or the other Smith gets hurt.

554
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:45,000
Speaker 15: So smart played by Dallas Cook. You know, I was

555
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,880
Speaker 15: listening to guys this morning there you know, half of

556
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 15: them or four it and half of them or not.

557
00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:51,239
Speaker 15: But I believe Dallas had a chance to get him

558
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 15: in the free agency and they didn't take a chance then,

559
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,280
Speaker 15: So that kind of tells us a little bit how

560
00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 15: they feel a little at the draft next year. There's

561
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 15: four guys that they've got to pick up at least

562
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:04,840
Speaker 15: in the third round, first and second they've got to

563
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 15: go linebacker and tackle, I believe. But I'll hang up

564
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 15: and listen, good.

565
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 2: Show, Thank you, appreciate that. Bruce. You know, remember like

566
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 2: the price for you know, I mean he signed a

567
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 2: one year, seven million dollar contract Dalvin Cook did for

568
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 2: with the Jets, so that might have been you know

569
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,160
Speaker 2: the reason too. I mean, and the Cowboys they may

570
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 2: have called. They've been like, hey, what are we looking

571
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 2: at here? And he said, yeah, this is what this

572
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 2: is what we're gonna get with the Jets or whatever,

573
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 2: and so that kind of soured them on it. So

574
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 2: as of right now, I mean, it would be a

575
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 2: little bit different than that. I mean, you could you

576
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,560
Speaker 2: could still give the guy a seven million dollar contract

577
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 2: right now. I mean, you're only going to get one

578
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:46,800
Speaker 2: eighteenth of it, so I mean or you know, some

579
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 2: into the playoffs, but uh, you know, I I think

580
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 2: that it's a little early. It's it's a lot ely

581
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 2: for the draft. I mean so but yeah, you know,

582
00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 2: you see these positions that that are going to be

583
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 2: in need, and running back's got to be one of them,

584
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:06,960
Speaker 2: of course. But you know, I mean when you're you're

585
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 2: gonna be the end of the first round, and you

586
00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 2: got to get a good a good football player. And

587
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 2: you know, they they picked for need this year with

588
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 2: Mazzy Smith, and so far it hasn't it hasn't worked out,

589
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:23,960
Speaker 2: and so you're gonna have you know, you have to

590
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,760
Speaker 2: get a good football player. And so we can we

591
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,600
Speaker 2: can think that they have all these needs, but you

592
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:31,480
Speaker 2: know you're supposed to kind of take care of some

593
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 2: things with free agency, put some band aid on some positions. Uh,

594
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:37,720
Speaker 2: and then and then get to the draft and not

595
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 2: have to be you know, pigeonholed in to saying, we

596
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,120
Speaker 2: got to get this spot. You know, you gotta get

597
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 2: the running back, gotta get a linebacker. Be nice. But

598
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 2: I mean, you know what about cornerback? What if you

599
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:56,000
Speaker 2: don't resign Stefan Gilmore, you know, and what if you know,

600
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 2: you got Digs coming back from an injury, you got

601
00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 2: bland cornerbacks that right there. Whatever pick you're going to pick,

602
00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 2: you know, that could be big too. So all right, Dylan, Northport, Florida.

603
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,120
Speaker 8: Hey, more morning.

604
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:10,400
Speaker 6: Hey.

605
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 14: Regarding the last caller, Mike McCarthy, I don't think he

606
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 14: goes anywhere regardless of what happens three twelve and five,

607
00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:19,120
Speaker 14: Assuming we win next week three twelve and five seasons,

608
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 14: you're going to get a regurgitated head coach, you know,

609
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 14: else from elsewhere that's failing, and that's why he's out

610
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:27,400
Speaker 14: in the street, and that's having his best season in

611
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:29,480
Speaker 14: his career. And I don't think that's a coincidence at

612
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 14: all whatsoever. Mike's known for his quarterback development and here

613
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:35,280
Speaker 14: he's seen your quarterback being developed. So I don't think

614
00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:37,440
Speaker 14: Mike goes anywhere regardless of what happens.

615
00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:42,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't either, honestly. I mean, I just you

616
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:45,240
Speaker 2: want to build. You're trying to build a foundation here

617
00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 2: and he's done that. He has done that. Now, yes,

618
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:52,640
Speaker 2: you want to get over over the hump, but I mean,

619
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 2: who are you going to I mean, who are you

620
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,680
Speaker 2: going to bring in that says, all right, what this

621
00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 2: guy has built and everything, and then you know, put

622
00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:02,960
Speaker 2: him in there. I mean, this is his first year

623
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 2: calling the place here with Dak. Dak's had his best

624
00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 2: year probably. I mean, Dak has his best year of

625
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 2: his career. I mean, come on, twenty sixteen, it was

626
00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:15,200
Speaker 2: it was it was not it was hand the ball

627
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:17,040
Speaker 2: to Zeke and take care of things, and he did

628
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 2: a really good job. But he's not taking over like

629
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:24,280
Speaker 2: like he's done here. So that doesn't make any sense

630
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:28,400
Speaker 2: to me to to just get him for for who.

631
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:30,240
Speaker 2: You know, there's a lot of teams out there that

632
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:33,720
Speaker 2: are they're just right there. They're trying to to get

633
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 2: to that next level. And I used the Mike holingrim

634
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:40,160
Speaker 2: reference last week, but I mean the Packers for four

635
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 2: years were building something. They just weren't better than Dallas

636
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 2: in San Francisco, and right now the Cowboys just haven't

637
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:50,080
Speaker 2: been better than San Francisco. San Francisco has been better.

638
00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:54,000
Speaker 2: But I mean that's that doesn't mean you have to

639
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 2: lose your coach for it. That's the way I think.

640
00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:58,120
Speaker 2: Let's see how it all plays out them.

641
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 14: Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure, we're kind of getting ahead

642
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,880
Speaker 14: of ourselves there. But yeah, I like Michael. I think

643
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:06,600
Speaker 14: he's done a good job here regarding this run defense.

644
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:09,040
Speaker 14: Last week was really weird against the Lions. It was

645
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 14: like they either had a ten to fifteen year old run,

646
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 14: there was like a two yard loss. There was like

647
00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:15,400
Speaker 14: no in between it all whatsoever. Micah had a really

648
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 14: good game against the ground, which was nice to seek it.

649
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:21,080
Speaker 14: That's been a criticism on him. De Las obviously balling out.

650
00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 14: So these guys play well and I'm excited when Hankins

651
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 14: comes back. Hopefully they can keep playing that way and

652
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,400
Speaker 14: some of those larger runs comes down, so it kind

653
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:33,200
Speaker 14: of evens that that divide a little bit. So here

654
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 14: your thoughts on that. And then random Cowboy just an

655
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 14: honor of the game against Washington here, it's not a

656
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 14: name the Cowboys fans will like to hear, but we'll

657
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:43,920
Speaker 14: go ahead and go with Alex Barron and that that

658
00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:47,320
Speaker 14: mess at the end of that one game. Yep, I'll

659
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,200
Speaker 14: hang up and listen to thanks, thank you.

660
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:55,920
Speaker 2: Alex Baron tackle that they that they had from he

661
00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:59,440
Speaker 2: was drafted by the Rams. And then I think this

662
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,960
Speaker 2: is two thousand and ten opener he's referring to at

663
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:06,840
Speaker 2: Washington where the Cowboys were driving for the win and

664
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,439
Speaker 2: through a touchdown I think to Roy Williams was called

665
00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:11,760
Speaker 2: back for a holding on Baron, which was his third

666
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:15,640
Speaker 2: of the day. Ironically enough, I was told not too

667
00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:18,759
Speaker 2: long after that game that he grated out better than

668
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:22,319
Speaker 2: any player on that line that day. That just kind

669
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:25,440
Speaker 2: of goes to show, you know, just how you know

670
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,319
Speaker 2: penalties matter and you know when you're watching that's what

671
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:31,719
Speaker 2: you see. But Alex Baron actually played a really good game.

672
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:35,560
Speaker 2: He had three holding calls, but the other sixty five

673
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:39,600
Speaker 2: seventy snaps or whatever graded out really well. Despite that,

674
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,759
Speaker 2: nothing that matters that they lost the game, and in

675
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:47,000
Speaker 2: that game they lost bright before the half with a fumble.

676
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:51,280
Speaker 2: But to Shard choice that was kind of crazy. But

677
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:56,160
Speaker 2: but your point about Hankins is right. Jonathan Hankins I

678
00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 2: think is going to be a big difference maker. He

679
00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:00,200
Speaker 2: always has been. I mean that's why they traded for him.

680
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 2: Last year. He fixed the run, and then he got

681
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 2: hurt and then they had run issues. Then he came

682
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 2: back to the playoffs and they were better there. Saying

683
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:10,799
Speaker 2: this year they've been good, they're just better when he's

684
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:13,520
Speaker 2: in there. So Hankins should be able to play this

685
00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:17,840
Speaker 2: week against Washington. Washington's got they got some physical runners.

686
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 2: I think Brian Robinson's back, He's he's a load to handle.

687
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:24,520
Speaker 2: So yeah, I think Hankins should be playing this week,

688
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:26,520
Speaker 2: and I think that there's a big difference maker when

689
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:30,520
Speaker 2: he's in there. All Right, Kent in Las Cruces, New Mexico.

690
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:36,759
Speaker 6: Good morning, Nick. Hey, I've got a quick question here right,

691
00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:41,160
Speaker 6: been watching the other podcast and everybody is really skeptical

692
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:43,799
Speaker 6: or just outright opposed to bringing Dalvin Cook in for

693
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:47,080
Speaker 6: a look. And I was certainly not a fan of

694
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:48,840
Speaker 6: signing him in the offseason when it was going to

695
00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 6: cost several million dollars. But why on earth wouldn't you

696
00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:54,879
Speaker 6: at least kick the tires on a former All thro

697
00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:57,839
Speaker 6: seeing the struggle that we continue to have on.

698
00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:04,840
Speaker 2: Running well, I mean you got to see if is

699
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,080
Speaker 2: he a better option for you? Is he better option

700
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:11,600
Speaker 2: than Rico Daddle running the ball? And I know you

701
00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 2: you think, oh, all pro, I mean former all Pro?

702
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,799
Speaker 2: But is I mean, is he is he better? I

703
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,440
Speaker 2: mean you know, I mean I I don't know that.

704
00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 2: And and also that that throws a wrench in things

705
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 2: a little bit you bring in a guy like that.

706
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:28,960
Speaker 2: I know you don't think special teams matters, but it

707
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,040
Speaker 2: matters if you're giving up a punt block or something

708
00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:33,120
Speaker 2: like that. And the reason I say that is, you

709
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:35,680
Speaker 2: know right now they're a backup running back. Rico dald

710
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 2: or whoever it is, plays on special teams. So you

711
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:40,839
Speaker 2: bring in a cook. Now he doesn't do that, and

712
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:42,920
Speaker 2: now you know, you just shuffle some things around. Is

713
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:44,759
Speaker 2: it worth it? That's that's all they have to figure out.

714
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:48,880
Speaker 2: I mean, because because I think we think about names

715
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:50,799
Speaker 2: a lot, and I I do what we all do.

716
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:52,840
Speaker 2: We like, see the name, You're like, oh man, that

717
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 2: would be great. But thirty other thirty one other teams

718
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,319
Speaker 2: are seeing this the same name, and then I mean,

719
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:00,600
Speaker 2: are they interested? I just don't know if he has

720
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:03,719
Speaker 2: it anymore. And that's that's what they got to figure out.

721
00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:06,200
Speaker 2: But right you have a.

722
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 6: Joint thirty one other teams. Isn't isn't an issue at

723
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:11,880
Speaker 6: this point right because we're just talking about playoff teams.

724
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:16,359
Speaker 6: And then who has a playoff team whose offense is

725
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:20,840
Speaker 6: predicated on a run first, playofption or play action pass

726
00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:21,800
Speaker 6: type offense?

727
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:24,440
Speaker 2: And well, I say the thirty.

728
00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:26,359
Speaker 6: One team mature number down to five or six.

729
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:28,719
Speaker 2: Okay, I say, I say the thirty one teams from

730
00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:30,560
Speaker 2: from last year in free agency. I mean when he

731
00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:33,600
Speaker 2: was out there too. So you're you're right, I mean,

732
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:35,920
Speaker 2: you're not worried about that that many teams right now.

733
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:39,319
Speaker 2: It's about you know who who could you know, who

734
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:43,080
Speaker 2: could he help? And he probably could. I'm not against it,

735
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:45,800
Speaker 2: I'm really not. I'm not. I'm just giving you why.

736
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:49,839
Speaker 2: Maybe they wouldn't. I mean, I think they'd be they'd

737
00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:52,840
Speaker 2: be they'd be stupid not to kick the tires on

738
00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:56,319
Speaker 2: and and research it and look into it. I think

739
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:58,960
Speaker 2: that you have to do that. If they don't do it,

740
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:01,000
Speaker 2: they don't do it. I mean team has shown though

741
00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,799
Speaker 2: they Yeah, I think Jerry and gets you know, I mean,

742
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:06,840
Speaker 2: I think I think he gets some criticism on the

743
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:10,040
Speaker 2: fact of the stuff they haven't done. You know, you see,

744
00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:11,839
Speaker 2: well look what the forty nine ers made a trade

745
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,200
Speaker 2: and they got Chase Young or you know, they you know,

746
00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 2: these teams are making all these moves and Shacklinard they

747
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:19,920
Speaker 2: didn't get him done. But if you go back and

748
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:21,879
Speaker 2: look the last couple of years, the Cowboys have made

749
00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 2: moves like this, they they they brought in guys like this,

750
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:32,520
Speaker 2: Anthony Barr from Minnesota, Jason Peters, Xavier Rhodes, high profile

751
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:35,839
Speaker 2: guys that are out there, and maybe they could help.

752
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:39,160
Speaker 2: So it could happen. I mean, it could happen, and

753
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:42,600
Speaker 2: it wouldn't be the worst thing if they did.

754
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:45,839
Speaker 6: That, right, all right, I just would like to see him.

755
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:47,719
Speaker 6: If they could just boost our running game a little bit,

756
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:50,799
Speaker 6: just look into it. I wouldn't just finally sign the guy.

757
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:51,759
Speaker 2: Look into it at it.

758
00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:55,279
Speaker 6: I don't know that battle is up, and then you're

759
00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 6: out of elevations from leaks. I like both those guys,

760
00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:02,040
Speaker 6: but we don't know how. And then with Malik being

761
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 6: out of elevations and you'd have to give up a

762
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:05,520
Speaker 6: spot on the fifty three to move them up.

763
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:09,239
Speaker 2: I did not answer this question from earlier. From what

764
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:13,480
Speaker 2: I was told, the elevations reset in the playoffs. Oh

765
00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:19,239
Speaker 2: so Milie Davis, Malik, Jefferson, guys like that could could

766
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:23,600
Speaker 2: uh you know, fall back into play here. So but

767
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:27,920
Speaker 2: but yeah, all right, thanks camp, good call. All right,

768
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:37,399
Speaker 2: Let's go to Brian in Louisiana. Brian, Hey, yeah, man,

769
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:38,600
Speaker 2: how you doing all right?

770
00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:39,560
Speaker 12: Pretty good? How you doing?

771
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 2: I'm good, what's up.

772
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:42,239
Speaker 10: Yeah, I just got a quick question.

773
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:43,040
Speaker 5: Now.

774
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:45,520
Speaker 12: I know people are still talking about this two point

775
00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 12: conversions stuff. Uh, And my question was is that what

776
00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:52,960
Speaker 12: is kind of like, I guess the timing of some

777
00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:57,920
Speaker 12: when the rest tell the defense that seventies eligible and

778
00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:00,640
Speaker 12: then announced it on the PA that said jail's away.

779
00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:04,240
Speaker 12: At what point how much time would Detroit have to say, okay,

780
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:07,160
Speaker 12: well they called the wrong number to they do anything?

781
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:12,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, what I think would have happened there is Golf

782
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:15,600
Speaker 2: goes over to the official and says, we didn't say seventy,

783
00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:18,960
Speaker 2: we said sixty eight. We didn't say seventies. Sixty eight

784
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:24,880
Speaker 2: is eligible. Oh okay, okay, got correction, sixty eight is eligible.

785
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:30,640
Speaker 2: Probably at that point, reset the game clock, the play clock.

786
00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:34,319
Speaker 2: That's what I think they made a mistake. And now

787
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:38,160
Speaker 2: now but now you're alerting everyone, and now you know

788
00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:40,680
Speaker 2: you're stopping the clock. And the fact that GoF had

789
00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:44,840
Speaker 2: to be like whoa, whoa, whoa, that's not true. You

790
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:48,120
Speaker 2: know that that's where that's where Detroit didn't want that,

791
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:51,239
Speaker 2: So you know, that kind of screwed up the whole plan.

792
00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:54,360
Speaker 2: So it just didn't work.

793
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:56,319
Speaker 10: So in other words, they basically just kind of rolled

794
00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 10: the dice and said, Okay, well, yeah, we're not gonna

795
00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:00,399
Speaker 10: small it. We're just gonna run with it.

796
00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:02,440
Speaker 2: Maybe they should have probably.

797
00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:04,880
Speaker 10: Audible out of it, knowing that they were going to

798
00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:08,560
Speaker 10: get that Kennedy because number six Day was no longer eligible.

799
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:11,240
Speaker 5: Because the plate worked, because Dallas wasn't.

800
00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:14,279
Speaker 2: Work, wasn't worried about it. Yeah. I mean that's the thing.

801
00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:17,279
Speaker 2: If you were told Steph Curry can't shoot the ball,

802
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:21,000
Speaker 2: he's not allowed to shoot in the corner, well, you're

803
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:22,800
Speaker 2: not gonna guard him, and then all of a sudden

804
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:24,040
Speaker 2: he gets the ball and he shoots the three, and

805
00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:26,359
Speaker 2: you're like, wait a second, Oh no, that wasn't true.

806
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:29,880
Speaker 2: It was Clay that can't shoot. Oh crap. I mean exactly.

807
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,760
Speaker 2: That's just this is silly.

808
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 10: But all right, bro, I appreciate the time, Thank thank you.

809
00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:41,200
Speaker 2: All Right, I want to say something else about the

810
00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:46,000
Speaker 2: reporting eligible and stuff like that. This this just kind

811
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 2: of goes to show just how like these quarterbacks, how

812
00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:54,160
Speaker 2: phenomenal they are. So Back in the Philly game on

813
00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:56,200
Speaker 2: the road, I don't know if you remember too many

814
00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:59,319
Speaker 2: Doga came onto the field for a play and I

815
00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:02,600
Speaker 2: remember sitting the press box. It happened right in front

816
00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:05,840
Speaker 2: of us. He comes in under the play. He's not starting,

817
00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:10,120
Speaker 2: like he's a backup, and I remember looking over at

818
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:12,040
Speaker 2: Derek and I was like, he hasn't reported it. They

819
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:15,200
Speaker 2: haven't announced this, Like what's he doing? And they were

820
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:18,200
Speaker 2: about to snap it and Dak is under center and

821
00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:21,279
Speaker 2: he turns to the official under center and he looked

822
00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:23,880
Speaker 2: at the official and he's like, he's making the you know,

823
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:28,239
Speaker 2: eligible sign, reporting sign, and nothing happened. So he just

824
00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:29,880
Speaker 2: snaps the ball and they run it and then the

825
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:33,600
Speaker 2: flag comes because he didn't report eligible. And I even

826
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:35,600
Speaker 2: asked Dak two weeks later, I was like, how did

827
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:37,960
Speaker 2: you know that? Schuman didn't you know? And he goes,

828
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:40,480
Speaker 2: you just he just got a feel for you know,

829
00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:43,080
Speaker 2: you just hear the announcement and I just didn't remember

830
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:45,319
Speaker 2: hearing it. And I'm thinking, when you when you think

831
00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:47,719
Speaker 2: about what a play call is, it's like seventy three

832
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 2: words in a row. You know, to make the call,

833
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:52,279
Speaker 2: then the adjustment. You're looking at the safety and the

834
00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:55,640
Speaker 2: linebacker identifying the mic. You know, you're getting this guy

835
00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:57,480
Speaker 2: in motion. You're looking at the clock and it's going

836
00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:01,640
Speaker 2: down and then also to think, wait, Tchuma didn't report.

837
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:05,000
Speaker 2: I mean that that blows my mind that these quarterbacks

838
00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:06,879
Speaker 2: can do that and GoF, you know, and maybe in

839
00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:09,279
Speaker 2: his head, you know, they were saying, GoF, hey, you know,

840
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:12,200
Speaker 2: make sure Cca goes over there. But it's just so much.

841
00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:14,200
Speaker 2: I just have a lot of respect for that with

842
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:16,919
Speaker 2: those guys did and it reminds me of that play

843
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:19,799
Speaker 2: that that Dak tried to make there with you know,

844
00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:22,280
Speaker 2: he's got thirty seven things in a road to think about,

845
00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:24,680
Speaker 2: and that was thirty eight. But that was that was

846
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:27,760
Speaker 2: a bad penalty too, all right, Joe and New Jersey.

847
00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:31,359
Speaker 2: Next call hey, Nick a happy New Year.

848
00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:31,719
Speaker 9: How are you?

849
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:33,040
Speaker 2: I'm good? How are you doing?

850
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:34,080
Speaker 5: Good?

851
00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:34,319
Speaker 11: Good?

852
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:34,600
Speaker 5: Good?

853
00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:39,359
Speaker 3: A couple of different topics here. First one was more

854
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 3: of a comment I feel as if we ever would

855
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:44,560
Speaker 3: have picked up Derrick Henry when we could have, this

856
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:47,400
Speaker 3: team is a completely different team than we are right now.

857
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:53,840
Speaker 3: Number two, I feel like this team has struggled without

858
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:58,759
Speaker 3: having a vocal leader on offense and defense for like

859
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:02,359
Speaker 3: the past eight years. It feels like we struggle with

860
00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:06,480
Speaker 3: that vocal leader of Ascota whenever we're behind. Where we

861
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:09,600
Speaker 3: struggle when we're behind going to valy the troops to

862
00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:12,440
Speaker 3: get them, get them juiced up to do what they

863
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:15,040
Speaker 3: need to do. It feels like it's something that what.

864
00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:17,840
Speaker 2: Would you call that? What would you call that? Is

865
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:19,240
Speaker 2: he not a vocal leader?

866
00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:24,279
Speaker 3: But maybybe I'll stick to defense, Okay, I'll think I

867
00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:27,399
Speaker 3: don't think Parsons the dark that guy? Uh? I see,

868
00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:31,799
Speaker 3: maybe maybe Tank is that guy. Sometimes I just feel like,

869
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:37,319
Speaker 3: just as a franchise, we haven't drafted those folks, and

870
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,080
Speaker 3: I feel like that that's an area that we've been

871
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:43,480
Speaker 3: struggling with. Uh yeah for a bit. I mean you're

872
00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:47,040
Speaker 3: closer to the team obviously, who I mean, who could

873
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:48,960
Speaker 3: who could you think? On defense?

874
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:50,680
Speaker 5: That might be the guy?

875
00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:52,879
Speaker 2: And I just it's tough.

876
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:53,800
Speaker 3: I think it's a gap.

877
00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:58,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's tough. Leadership is not easy. Let me ask you,

878
00:44:58,600 --> 00:44:59,640
Speaker 2: are you still there? Joe?

879
00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:00,239
Speaker 3: Yeah?

880
00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:00,440
Speaker 10: Yeah?

881
00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:00,840
Speaker 5: Yeah.

882
00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:05,600
Speaker 2: Who's the best leader in the Cowboys I've ever had?

883
00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:07,080
Speaker 3: Always saying offense or defense?

884
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:10,520
Speaker 2: Either, I'm gonna say.

885
00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:12,120
Speaker 3: Offense, Troy Aikman.

886
00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:14,880
Speaker 5: Defense.

887
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:18,879
Speaker 3: I'm forty one, right, so I'll give you the I'm

888
00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:22,160
Speaker 3: talking one players I've seen on you know, on TV

889
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:29,279
Speaker 3: on Sundays, maybe Woodson, I struggle with like finding the

890
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:32,520
Speaker 3: Ray Lewis types, right I have. I haven't seen those

891
00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:35,800
Speaker 3: types in my lifetime as a Cowboys.

892
00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:38,560
Speaker 2: Would you call it to shard choice a good leader?

893
00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:42,719
Speaker 2: So no, you would?

894
00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:42,839
Speaker 3: I didn't.

895
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:44,359
Speaker 2: I didn't see it enough, right, right?

896
00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:45,160
Speaker 3: You know what?

897
00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:47,440
Speaker 2: No? No, But Joe, the reason why I'm asking you

898
00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:50,080
Speaker 2: that is, this is why this is a very difficult

899
00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:54,240
Speaker 2: thing to to figure out. It's not a stat. Okay,

900
00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:57,760
Speaker 2: you don't have a leadership stat. It's you named Troy Aikman,

901
00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:02,080
Speaker 2: gold jacket. You name Darren Woodson going to have a

902
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:06,320
Speaker 2: gold jacket maybe this year. Ray Lewis, Michael Irvin is one.

903
00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:10,040
Speaker 2: These are great players who were vocal and loud, and

904
00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:12,400
Speaker 2: the cameras caught him doing that kind of stuff, so

905
00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:16,000
Speaker 2: you put that together. But I'm not gonna name his name.

906
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,800
Speaker 2: But the Cowboys had a player about twelve years ago

907
00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:22,720
Speaker 2: that tried to be a leader. He was the leader

908
00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:26,439
Speaker 2: of their team on you know, that side of the ball.

909
00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:30,680
Speaker 2: He was an okay player and he was the leader.

910
00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:33,160
Speaker 2: He was a good leader, but he was okay. He

911
00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:37,040
Speaker 2: was missing plays left and right too, So what you know,

912
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:40,799
Speaker 2: it's hard to do that if you're not just a badass.

913
00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:44,680
Speaker 2: And that's the problem with leadership is that, you know,

914
00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:46,960
Speaker 2: you could say Tank is the leader, and he is.

915
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:48,880
Speaker 2: He gets in front of the team and all that stuff,

916
00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:52,640
Speaker 2: but it's not easy when you don't make all the plays.

917
00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:56,120
Speaker 2: You know, Micah could be the leader because he's you know,

918
00:46:56,160 --> 00:47:00,120
Speaker 2: he makes that many plays. So that's why leadership, to

919
00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:03,080
Speaker 2: me is kind of tricky to de find because you're

920
00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:07,759
Speaker 2: really talking about an awesome player that is also keeps

921
00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:09,400
Speaker 2: you know, keeps these guys accountable.

922
00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:12,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I of course I don't get I don't

923
00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:14,560
Speaker 3: see all the sideline footage, right, but you know, when

924
00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:17,000
Speaker 3: we're down, we struggle, right Like we're struggled to get

925
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,640
Speaker 3: back when we're down. You know, I don't know if

926
00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:21,600
Speaker 3: if it helps to have that leader that's going to

927
00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:24,279
Speaker 3: kind of remind folks of our mission and whatnot. I

928
00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:27,880
Speaker 3: see that pre game. I see that, But yeah, I

929
00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:30,520
Speaker 3: mean that's just you know, I appreciate the time, Nick,

930
00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:34,400
Speaker 3: but as a fan, you know, I just wish I

931
00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:37,200
Speaker 3: see that out there. And what are your thoughts on

932
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,879
Speaker 3: the Hey, if you would have had a Derrick Henry back,

933
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:44,560
Speaker 3: we go make this team a little different with the struggling.

934
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:50,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, it would have made the team better. But for sure,

935
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:51,600
Speaker 2: thanks for the call. It would have made the team better.

936
00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:56,320
Speaker 2: But remember, no team in the league traded for him,

937
00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:59,080
Speaker 2: you know, And as much as they were sort of

938
00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:02,600
Speaker 2: talking about it or what ever, nobody, nobody pulled the

939
00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:05,719
Speaker 2: trigger and made that trade. What were they asking for it?

940
00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:09,759
Speaker 2: Maybe it was just too much. So yes, that would

941
00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:11,799
Speaker 2: have helped the team. I mean, he would have been

942
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:15,240
Speaker 2: better than the backup running backs that you had, probably

943
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:17,880
Speaker 2: going to cost you a first round pick, and I

944
00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:21,280
Speaker 2: was actually told that was The Cowboys never really discussed

945
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,359
Speaker 2: it though, it never got that serious. And I think

946
00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:26,440
Speaker 2: it's because of the asking price from the Tennessee All right,

947
00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:31,799
Speaker 2: real quick, Eric in North Carolina, what's up, Nick, what's

948
00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:32,359
Speaker 2: up man?

949
00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:32,960
Speaker 5: How's it going?

950
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:35,359
Speaker 2: Happy New Year, brother, Happy new Year to you. How

951
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:36,640
Speaker 2: are you good?

952
00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:37,239
Speaker 5: Good man?

953
00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:39,560
Speaker 13: I'm doing very well. Blessed you and blessed you all.

954
00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:44,160
Speaker 13: But I'll be real quick, so I appreciate it. I

955
00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:46,560
Speaker 13: want your opinion, man. I feel like if the eaglet

956
00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:48,880
Speaker 13: would have won the other day, said, we would be

957
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:52,319
Speaker 13: having this whole uproar about how the Cowboys going the day.

958
00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:53,560
Speaker 13: Just my opinion.

959
00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:54,720
Speaker 5: I feel like if.

960
00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:56,759
Speaker 13: They lost they're making an issue out of more thing

961
00:48:56,840 --> 00:48:59,240
Speaker 13: what it is. And I just told her your opinion.

962
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:02,759
Speaker 2: Can you repeat that for me? Making an issue out

963
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:04,279
Speaker 2: of what, you know.

964
00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:09,280
Speaker 13: The whole controversy about how the Cowboys beat Detroit on Saturday.

965
00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:11,359
Speaker 13: I feel that the Eagles would have won that game,

966
00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:14,200
Speaker 13: that it would have been just it wouldn't even have

967
00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:16,520
Speaker 13: been a foot note to the weekend. In my opinion,

968
00:49:16,880 --> 00:49:19,520
Speaker 13: I just feel like they said they're stressing it more

969
00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:21,520
Speaker 13: than what they should based off the fact that we

970
00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:23,880
Speaker 13: jumped the first place in the division. That's just how

971
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:24,400
Speaker 13: I see it.

972
00:49:24,440 --> 00:49:27,120
Speaker 2: Man. I don't know, well, I don't I don't, you know,

973
00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:29,800
Speaker 2: I don't know if I agree with that because Rex

974
00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:32,160
Speaker 2: Ryan was was about to blow a gasket, you know,

975
00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:36,799
Speaker 2: in the pregame shows on Sunday before Philly did all that,

976
00:49:36,920 --> 00:49:40,280
Speaker 2: you know, I mean those those pregame shows on Sunday

977
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:42,360
Speaker 2: for the games. I mean it was a huge topic.

978
00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:45,520
Speaker 2: I mean it was, you know, and and think about it.

979
00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:48,879
Speaker 2: I mean, Detroit, Detroit's a lovable team. If you don't,

980
00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:53,240
Speaker 2: you know, unless you're in Minnesota or Green Bay, Chicago, whatever, everybody.

981
00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:56,080
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, Dan Campbell, it was on Hard Knocks,

982
00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:58,520
Speaker 2: you know that's root for the Lions. You know he's

983
00:49:58,600 --> 00:50:02,840
Speaker 2: going for it. Aggressive play to win, right, Well, you

984
00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:05,440
Speaker 2: play to win when you don't, when you don't think

985
00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:07,759
Speaker 2: you're a better team, you know, you do that kind

986
00:50:07,760 --> 00:50:10,680
Speaker 2: of stuff. Go watch a football team, college, high school,

987
00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:14,840
Speaker 2: pro first get play the games like a double reverse

988
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:18,959
Speaker 2: pass throwback to the receiver to the quarterback. They're probably

989
00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:22,319
Speaker 2: gonna lose. Yep, they're probably gonna lose, and they know it.

990
00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:27,120
Speaker 2: So and I like Dan Campbell. I like Dan Campbell,

991
00:50:27,239 --> 00:50:30,000
Speaker 2: but I would have I would have kicked the extra

992
00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:31,879
Speaker 2: point after that and back to the seven, I would

993
00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:33,560
Speaker 2: have kicked the extra point.

994
00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:37,759
