0:06:20.160 --> 0:06:22.559
<v Speaker 1>until you were twenty five. Yeah, because I'm scared of heights.

0:06:22.680 --> 0:06:25.040
<v Speaker 1>That just opens the door to so many more questions

0:06:25.600 --> 0:06:29.320
<v Speaker 1>falling from heights, both, Rob, you haven't wrote a roller

0:06:29.360 --> 0:06:32.839

0:06:32.920 --> 0:06:35.240
<v Speaker 1>used to make up excuses not to go with my friends.

0:06:35.680 --> 0:06:38.960
<v Speaker 1>Do you know how to roller skate. Yeah, skateboard, but

0:06:39.000 --> 0:06:41.160

0:06:42.200 --> 0:06:48.080

0:06:48.120 --> 0:07:03.600

0:07:15.760 --> 0:07:19.720
<v Speaker 1>things to talk about. Man, this guy's not a thrill

0:07:19.800 --> 0:07:28.720
<v Speaker 1>secret at all. Oh Man, I don't know about I

0:07:28.800 --> 0:07:31.080
<v Speaker 1>love that. That was. That might have been my first,

0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:35.080
<v Speaker 1>my favorite first eight minutes of this show ever. All right, Rob,

0:07:35.160 --> 0:07:39.280
<v Speaker 1>let's get in. Let's get into talking cowboys. Let's talk cowboys.

0:07:39.360 --> 0:07:42.720
<v Speaker 1>Let's talk cowboys. What happened yesterday? If anybody's still listening, Yeah,

0:07:42.880 --> 0:07:46.960
<v Speaker 1>News and notes for the Cowboys. Jerry Jones went early

0:07:47.000 --> 0:07:50.400
<v Speaker 1>today on the fanom and gave a little bit of

0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:53.520
<v Speaker 1>a Dak update. He said he was very encouraged by

0:07:53.520 --> 0:07:56.480
<v Speaker 1>what Dack did out there yesterday. I don't think they

0:07:56.520 --> 0:07:59.240
<v Speaker 1>had like a full full normal practice, but they did

0:07:59.240 --> 0:08:03.680
<v Speaker 1>a little out there apparently, so that's encouraging. But he said, look,

0:08:03.760 --> 0:08:05.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean I talked about this yesterday. They're going to

0:08:05.760 --> 0:08:08.960
<v Speaker 1>take the whole week and make sure there's nothing that

0:08:09.120 --> 0:08:12.160
<v Speaker 1>he's not responding well too with the calf after practice

0:08:12.240 --> 0:08:15.320
<v Speaker 1>and all that. So they're leaving their options open there,

0:08:15.360 --> 0:08:18.360
<v Speaker 1>but I think they're they're very hopeful he will start

0:08:18.400 --> 0:08:21.240
<v Speaker 1>Sunday and no boot. Yesterday was a big storyline. He

0:08:21.520 --> 0:08:25.400
<v Speaker 1>walked out of the facility to cheer on a team member,

0:08:25.480 --> 0:08:27.840
<v Speaker 1>cheron a staff member doing the workout on the field

0:08:27.840 --> 0:08:30.960
<v Speaker 1>and thus showing that the boot is no longer there

0:08:30.960 --> 0:08:35.280
<v Speaker 1>on that right foot. Yeah, nutritionists on staff was running

0:08:35.280 --> 0:08:39.520
<v Speaker 1>and he was he was encouraging him. Jeron Curse was

0:08:39.520 --> 0:08:41.480
<v Speaker 1>also talking at the time, and I think that kind

0:08:41.520 --> 0:08:43.440
<v Speaker 1>of made a point to kind of slip both feet

0:08:43.520 --> 0:08:45.520
<v Speaker 1>out the door just to kind of show there's no

0:08:45.559 --> 0:08:47.480
<v Speaker 1>boot there. I think maybe he was doing that just

0:08:47.520 --> 0:08:50.480
<v Speaker 1>to kind of show the media like y'all are y'all

0:08:50.480 --> 0:08:52.800
<v Speaker 1>are tripping, like this is gonna be fine. We'll see,

0:08:52.880 --> 0:08:55.360
<v Speaker 1>we'll see. But I think they're they're very hopeful. Do

0:08:55.400 --> 0:08:58.000
<v Speaker 1>you think kind of we laid it out yesterday on

0:08:58.040 --> 0:08:59.680
<v Speaker 1>Talking Cowboys, so if you want to go back and

0:08:59.720 --> 0:09:02.120
<v Speaker 1>listen to it, you can, But we kind of talked

0:09:02.120 --> 0:09:04.959
<v Speaker 1>about how much are they going to push him in practice?

0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:07.360
<v Speaker 1>Do you think anything has changed in that regard of

0:09:07.440 --> 0:09:10.960
<v Speaker 1>how much he'll be limited throughout the week leading into Sunday.

0:09:11.400 --> 0:09:14.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure. I'm not sure if like Wednesday, they're

0:09:14.120 --> 0:09:18.160
<v Speaker 1>gonna jump him right into full practice. They might, you know,

0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:20.800
<v Speaker 1>it may be kind of like, hey, how's it going,

0:09:20.800 --> 0:09:22.680
<v Speaker 1>how do you feel after individual? How much do you

0:09:22.679 --> 0:09:24.200
<v Speaker 1>want to do, and just kind of go from there.

0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:28.400
<v Speaker 1>Zack Martin talked about how he remember restrained his calfo

0:09:28.520 --> 0:09:30.319
<v Speaker 1>late in the season and he said, I don't know

0:09:30.320 --> 0:09:33.200
<v Speaker 1>if it's the exact same injury, but you know, sometimes

0:09:33.200 --> 0:09:35.360
<v Speaker 1>it feels great, sometimes it doesn't. You know, I might

0:09:35.400 --> 0:09:37.480
<v Speaker 1>wake up one day and it's great the next day. No,

0:09:37.679 --> 0:09:39.800
<v Speaker 1>So they really just want to keep it, you know,

0:09:39.960 --> 0:09:42.720
<v Speaker 1>just on a day by day by day by day

0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:47.040
<v Speaker 1>basis quarter mile at a time. Yeah, comparison, Yeah, makes

0:09:47.120 --> 0:09:49.120
<v Speaker 1>that's a good way to put in. Stephen Jones also

0:09:49.160 --> 0:09:52.679
<v Speaker 1>talked on the fan about Lyle Collins. He had some

0:09:52.760 --> 0:09:55.760
<v Speaker 1>interesting things to say about the starting right tackle. And

0:09:55.840 --> 0:09:59.000
<v Speaker 1>I say that starting right tackle with a little bit

0:09:59.000 --> 0:10:02.400
<v Speaker 1>of a question mark around it. What did what did

0:10:02.400 --> 0:10:05.440
<v Speaker 1>Steven Jones say specifically? And what did you take from

0:10:05.559 --> 0:10:08.600
<v Speaker 1>what his remarks were? Um, I would be paraphrasing. I

0:10:08.600 --> 0:10:11.320
<v Speaker 1>think he said something to the effect of, you know,

0:10:11.400 --> 0:10:14.640
<v Speaker 1>they they're really excited he's back. Jerry said the same

0:10:14.640 --> 0:10:16.679
<v Speaker 1>thing this morning. Basically, he has not played a lot

0:10:16.720 --> 0:10:18.360
<v Speaker 1>of football if you go all the way back to

0:10:18.440 --> 0:10:21.960
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty. So they want to get him into practice

0:10:21.960 --> 0:10:24.040
<v Speaker 1>and see how he responds, and you know, I think

0:10:24.080 --> 0:10:26.760
<v Speaker 1>conditioning is a factor there too, and just see where

0:10:26.760 --> 0:10:30.839
<v Speaker 1>he's at. I don't get the sense they're they're willing

0:10:30.880 --> 0:10:33.760
<v Speaker 1>to just take the job from him, but I think

0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:35.560
<v Speaker 1>in the back of their minds they know they have

0:10:35.600 --> 0:10:39.120
<v Speaker 1>options if it's not if it doesn't go how they hope. Now,

0:10:39.320 --> 0:10:41.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't think they have to say that publicly, but

0:10:42.640 --> 0:10:45.480
<v Speaker 1>Terence Steele has played well, so Lyle Collins, you mean

0:10:45.520 --> 0:10:47.320
<v Speaker 1>a lot to us, We're gonna get you back in here.

0:10:48.160 --> 0:10:50.320
<v Speaker 1>But they do have a guy who's shown he can

0:10:50.360 --> 0:10:54.120
<v Speaker 1>step in and play at that position. Is that a possibility, guys,

0:10:54.160 --> 0:10:57.320
<v Speaker 1>because of I mean Lyle Collins, like you just said,

0:10:57.320 --> 0:10:59.520
<v Speaker 1>he hasn't played a whole lot. One game in what's

0:10:59.600 --> 0:11:02.920
<v Speaker 1>twenty one games is what he had played. Now twenty

0:11:02.920 --> 0:11:05.000
<v Speaker 1>two games, I guess one out of twenty two is

0:11:05.000 --> 0:11:07.480
<v Speaker 1>what it would be. That's not a lot of football

0:11:07.520 --> 0:11:10.280
<v Speaker 1>that he's been playing over the last two seasons, going

0:11:10.280 --> 0:11:13.439
<v Speaker 1>back to twenty nineteen, is there a possibility he is

0:11:13.480 --> 0:11:17.600
<v Speaker 1>not the starter on Sunday and maybe just adding a

0:11:17.679 --> 0:11:20.560
<v Speaker 1>layer to that when you talk about options, Yeah, I

0:11:20.600 --> 0:11:23.080
<v Speaker 1>think those options have picked, you know, kind of pricked

0:11:23.080 --> 0:11:25.600
<v Speaker 1>their ears a little bit too. The fact that maybe

0:11:25.920 --> 0:11:28.320
<v Speaker 1>right now, especially the way that this whole suspension was

0:11:28.360 --> 0:11:31.600
<v Speaker 1>handled in the controversy involved in it, that they're like,

0:11:31.840 --> 0:11:34.960
<v Speaker 1>they're probably a little pled with him with the way

0:11:35.000 --> 0:11:37.520
<v Speaker 1>that he handled his business off of the field. So

0:11:37.840 --> 0:11:41.160
<v Speaker 1>having still there's maybe just a way to let him

0:11:41.200 --> 0:11:44.880
<v Speaker 1>know as well, oh yeah, we have options and to

0:11:45.360 --> 0:11:47.760
<v Speaker 1>just basically say, look, you gotta get your stuff together.

0:11:47.960 --> 0:11:51.280
<v Speaker 1>And I appreciate that. There's no he didn't lose it

0:11:51.360 --> 0:11:54.560
<v Speaker 1>due to an injury. He lost his position due to

0:11:54.800 --> 0:11:59.040
<v Speaker 1>a suspension, and still has filled in nicely, and so look,

0:11:59.120 --> 0:12:02.160
<v Speaker 1>let's not play around this. We won't layout back. But

0:12:02.440 --> 0:12:04.839
<v Speaker 1>still has done a really good job. And I think

0:12:04.880 --> 0:12:07.200
<v Speaker 1>the way that Dak is getting the ball out of

0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:09.560
<v Speaker 1>his hands has definitely helped his offensive line. And so

0:12:09.640 --> 0:12:12.840
<v Speaker 1>continuing that, knowing that these guys have rhythm with each

0:12:12.840 --> 0:12:15.200
<v Speaker 1>other for the last five games, do you want to

0:12:15.240 --> 0:12:18.320
<v Speaker 1>interrupt that, But I just believe as a player, Leo

0:12:18.440 --> 0:12:21.480
<v Speaker 1>Collins is leaps and bounds better than what we have

0:12:21.600 --> 0:12:24.959
<v Speaker 1>seen with Still. Yeah, I'll just be reiterating what you

0:12:25.040 --> 0:12:26.920
<v Speaker 1>guys have said. Still has done a great job feeling

0:12:26.920 --> 0:12:30.000
<v Speaker 1>in Lyle's obviously that dude, that's why he gets paid

0:12:30.080 --> 0:12:31.960
<v Speaker 1>like that dude. But to you guys the point, he

0:12:31.960 --> 0:12:34.200
<v Speaker 1>hasn't played a lot and so the coaches are not

0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:38.000
<v Speaker 1>going to put somebody who is not in condition yet

0:12:38.720 --> 0:12:42.000
<v Speaker 1>at that position that is fully responsible to the health

0:12:42.040 --> 0:12:45.000
<v Speaker 1>of your quarterback. So if Lyle goes out there, they

0:12:45.000 --> 0:12:46.520
<v Speaker 1>put him on the field and he is not in

0:12:46.720 --> 0:12:49.800
<v Speaker 1>game shape and he gets tired and not to play

0:12:49.960 --> 0:12:52.120
<v Speaker 1>because he's gas because you did not get him in

0:12:52.200 --> 0:12:54.680
<v Speaker 1>enough shape to play in the game. That player goes

0:12:54.720 --> 0:12:57.360
<v Speaker 1>off and he hits Dak and hurts Dak. Who's that fault? Now, Yes, better,

0:12:58.080 --> 0:12:59.600
<v Speaker 1>So they're not going to put him in that position.

0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:02.040
<v Speaker 1>So if he doesn't play, it's because of his conditioning

0:13:02.120 --> 0:13:04.520
<v Speaker 1>or risk an injury to him. That too, that too,

0:13:04.679 --> 0:13:07.160
<v Speaker 1>because the other part of it was Layton training camp.

0:13:07.200 --> 0:13:09.600
<v Speaker 1>He had I think he had multiple stingers. It kind

0:13:09.600 --> 0:13:12.480
<v Speaker 1>of or resurface Layton camp. He didn't practice a lot.

0:13:12.640 --> 0:13:14.559
<v Speaker 1>Then he's got these five games, and he was here

0:13:14.840 --> 0:13:17.400
<v Speaker 1>part of the time, not the whole time. During suspension,

0:13:17.440 --> 0:13:19.040
<v Speaker 1>he was able to do certain things at the building.

0:13:19.360 --> 0:13:21.160
<v Speaker 1>I think it could be as simple as and you

0:13:21.200 --> 0:13:23.439
<v Speaker 1>know what, Sean asked a great Shariff asked a great

0:13:23.520 --> 0:13:26.840
<v Speaker 1>question to Jerry to your point, heck about do you

0:13:26.880 --> 0:13:30.720
<v Speaker 1>trust Is there any problem there with reliability based on

0:13:30.760 --> 0:13:33.199
<v Speaker 1>the suspension? And Jerry said no, I trust him. So

0:13:33.320 --> 0:13:37.200
<v Speaker 1>it may simply just be maybe he doesn't start against Minnesota,

0:13:37.240 --> 0:13:39.120
<v Speaker 1>maybe there's this kind of ramp up period and if

0:13:39.120 --> 0:13:41.000
<v Speaker 1>they like what they see within a week or so,

0:13:41.200 --> 0:13:44.640
<v Speaker 1>maybe it's I don't I forget the next game. We'll

0:13:44.679 --> 0:13:48.800
<v Speaker 1>see yea. They played the Broncos after Minnesota. But kind

0:13:48.840 --> 0:13:51.520
<v Speaker 1>of to your point about what Jerry said, that was

0:13:51.559 --> 0:13:53.880
<v Speaker 1>really kind of what laid it out for me, and

0:13:53.960 --> 0:13:56.240
<v Speaker 1>it goes along with both of what you guys were saying.

0:13:56.640 --> 0:13:59.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't think anything with the suspension is going to

0:13:59.240 --> 0:14:04.000
<v Speaker 1>play into the whole situation with him starting over Terren Steele,

0:14:04.080 --> 0:14:07.760
<v Speaker 1>it's whoever's the best suited right tackle to protect Dak

0:14:07.760 --> 0:14:11.000
<v Speaker 1>Prescin this week. Gotta be the best guy out there

0:14:11.040 --> 0:14:13.240
<v Speaker 1>at this moment. And if it is Terrence Steele, it's

0:14:13.240 --> 0:14:15.760
<v Speaker 1>gonna be seventy eight out there. But for the most part,

0:14:15.960 --> 0:14:19.400
<v Speaker 1>like you said, Lyell Collins is the guy and seventy

0:14:19.400 --> 0:14:21.520
<v Speaker 1>one most likely he's going to be your starter on Sunday.

0:14:21.600 --> 0:14:23.760
<v Speaker 1>So Tyren Smith is Tyren Smith, and you don't worry

0:14:23.760 --> 0:14:26.200
<v Speaker 1>about his matchup. And so every week we've been talking

0:14:26.240 --> 0:14:28.560
<v Speaker 1>about Terren Steele and his matchup and what we're gonna

0:14:28.560 --> 0:14:31.240
<v Speaker 1>do with tight ends to protect him. You're gonna need

0:14:31.320 --> 0:14:33.640
<v Speaker 1>your tight ends a lot in this game to get

0:14:33.680 --> 0:14:35.600
<v Speaker 1>out and coverage because of what they do so well

0:14:35.760 --> 0:14:38.040
<v Speaker 1>for the Vikings at the second level. But he has

0:14:38.040 --> 0:14:41.320
<v Speaker 1>a matchup versu Danil Hunter, and Danil Hunter is as

0:14:41.320 --> 0:14:44.880
<v Speaker 1>a dude and he's known for putting pressure on So

0:14:45.800 --> 0:14:48.920
<v Speaker 1>Terren Steele, he's going up against the bossas he's gone

0:14:49.000 --> 0:14:51.240
<v Speaker 1>all the names he's seen, So Danil Hunter is just

0:14:51.280 --> 0:14:53.200
<v Speaker 1>gonna be another name on that list. And when you

0:14:53.240 --> 0:14:56.520
<v Speaker 1>talk about going what we're gonna do next week, I

0:14:56.560 --> 0:14:58.600
<v Speaker 1>think the Broncos have a guy that's pretty good too. Yeah,

0:14:58.600 --> 0:15:00.800
<v Speaker 1>they've got that fifty eight m coming up at the

0:15:00.920 --> 0:15:03.160
<v Speaker 1>edge something like that. I've got a couple of guys

0:15:03.200 --> 0:15:05.920
<v Speaker 1>actually in them. Yeah. Seven. Uh do you think there

0:15:05.920 --> 0:15:08.440
<v Speaker 1>will be a rotation then? Based on that because of

0:15:08.680 --> 0:15:11.360
<v Speaker 1>maybe the conditioning from le Collins and then the game

0:15:11.400 --> 0:15:14.240
<v Speaker 1>readiness of Terrence Steel and what he's showing you, there's

0:15:14.240 --> 0:15:16.600
<v Speaker 1>a chance, there's a chance. You see couple plays, a

0:15:16.640 --> 0:15:18.720
<v Speaker 1>couple drives off here. I mean, if I'm the coach,

0:15:18.880 --> 0:15:21.040
<v Speaker 1>I want to get him, get him, you know, a

0:15:21.120 --> 0:15:24.880
<v Speaker 1>quarter of not a half of reps in in preparation

0:15:24.920 --> 0:15:27.400
<v Speaker 1>for next for next game, So maybe as steal the

0:15:27.400 --> 0:15:29.600
<v Speaker 1>first half and in Collins, depending on what bred the

0:15:29.640 --> 0:15:32.240
<v Speaker 1>games at. Hopefully you're up enough where you feel good

0:15:32.280 --> 0:15:33.840
<v Speaker 1>enough to say, okay, Collins ahead and get out there.

0:15:33.880 --> 0:15:35.640
<v Speaker 1>Let's get you to get some reps underneath your legs

0:15:36.040 --> 0:15:38.200
<v Speaker 1>before you take on that Fifda, dude, have you heard

0:15:38.240 --> 0:15:41.200
<v Speaker 1>anything about that? I have not, but I that was

0:15:41.240 --> 0:15:43.160
<v Speaker 1>our mail back question today. I don't think it's on

0:15:43.200 --> 0:15:45.200
<v Speaker 1>the website yet. And maybe I thought maybe it's a

0:15:45.200 --> 0:15:49.280
<v Speaker 1>silly question, like because you don't see offensive lineman rotate,

0:15:49.400 --> 0:15:52.600
<v Speaker 1>you see defensive lineman rotate. Is there is that possible?

0:15:52.720 --> 0:15:55.000
<v Speaker 1>Or is that is there so much chemistry that's needed

0:15:55.040 --> 0:15:59.600
<v Speaker 1>there that you can't really do that? Because the fan

0:15:59.680 --> 0:16:02.320
<v Speaker 1>was asked not only about Steele and Lyell, but maybe

0:16:02.360 --> 0:16:05.320
<v Speaker 1>McGovern rotating in some too, which I think that's a

0:16:05.360 --> 0:16:07.040
<v Speaker 1>lot of pieces to shovel in the course of it.

0:16:07.080 --> 0:16:09.800
<v Speaker 1>I think I think, I think steel and columns are

0:16:09.840 --> 0:16:12.920
<v Speaker 1>interchangeable in that regard. I think you can afford to

0:16:13.200 --> 0:16:16.480
<v Speaker 1>rotate those guys one half in other half in um

0:16:16.640 --> 0:16:19.080
<v Speaker 1>because he's playing next to play. But no, I mean

0:16:19.080 --> 0:16:20.600
<v Speaker 1>not only that, I mean how about how guys those

0:16:20.640 --> 0:16:22.640
<v Speaker 1>guys have played next to each other for a while? Ye, right,

0:16:22.680 --> 0:16:26.760
<v Speaker 1>So I mean there's no lack of communication in that regard.

0:16:27.040 --> 0:16:30.520
<v Speaker 1>It really comes down to conditioning. That's an interesting point

0:16:30.560 --> 0:16:32.240
<v Speaker 1>because you see it at the collegiate level. I mean,

0:16:32.280 --> 0:16:34.920
<v Speaker 1>heckmu and I did a game Saturday where outside of

0:16:34.920 --> 0:16:38.920
<v Speaker 1>the center position, all four other offensive line spots would

0:16:38.920 --> 0:16:42.480
<v Speaker 1>shift from drive to drive. I mean, it wasn't it

0:16:42.520 --> 0:16:45.400
<v Speaker 1>was odd. They played a total of nine offensive lineman

0:16:45.480 --> 0:16:49.040
<v Speaker 1>on a regular rotation. I don't encourage that happening, and

0:16:49.160 --> 0:16:52.320
<v Speaker 1>nor is it fun to watch. But just based off

0:16:52.320 --> 0:16:55.280
<v Speaker 1>of what Mike McCarthy has said, it looks like a

0:16:55.360 --> 0:16:59.840
<v Speaker 1>Keystone Cops every play exactly. Who's this guy who's reporting?

0:17:00.040 --> 0:17:02.000
<v Speaker 1>Based off of Mike McCarthy and what he has said

0:17:02.000 --> 0:17:04.639
<v Speaker 1>about the continuity of the offensive line and having that

0:17:06.200 --> 0:17:09.439
<v Speaker 1>lack of a revolving door and having that communication. I

0:17:09.440 --> 0:17:11.280
<v Speaker 1>don't know if there would be much of a rotation,

0:17:11.320 --> 0:17:13.560
<v Speaker 1>but if there wasn't position to do so, I think

0:17:13.600 --> 0:17:16.320
<v Speaker 1>it would be easy to do it, or easier to

0:17:16.359 --> 0:17:18.879
<v Speaker 1>do it at right tackle. All right, let's step aside.

0:17:18.880 --> 0:17:20.800

0:18:33.760 --> 0:18:35.720
<v Speaker 1>there was a draft, you could size up a cowboy

0:18:35.800 --> 0:18:38.679
<v Speaker 1>by three simple factors. The crease in his hat, the

0:18:38.720 --> 0:18:41.640
<v Speaker 1>bend of his brim, and his unbending attitude. A man

0:18:41.760 --> 0:18:44.640

0:20:37.000 --> 0:20:40.080
<v Speaker 1>Eight eight eight, eight, five, five two to nine seven.

0:20:40.119 --> 0:20:42.240
<v Speaker 1>We want to hear your thoughts on the Cowboys season

0:20:42.320 --> 0:20:45.880
<v Speaker 1>so far and what you think about the upcoming matchup

0:20:45.920 --> 0:20:49.440
<v Speaker 1>against the Minnesota Vikings. We've got Bob from Nashville on

0:20:49.480 --> 0:20:53.720
<v Speaker 1>the line. Bob, thanks for calling again. We're on talking Cowboys. Sure,

0:20:54.080 --> 0:20:58.159
<v Speaker 1>I fell us how you're doing. What's up? Hey? Um? Thanks?

0:20:58.200 --> 0:21:00.800
<v Speaker 1>Great show. Um. Just three things that I wanted to

0:21:00.880 --> 0:21:03.919
<v Speaker 1>run by you guys. I mean, you can answer one question,

0:21:03.960 --> 0:21:06.800
<v Speaker 1>but three things that I really see a concern. And

0:21:06.840 --> 0:21:08.480
<v Speaker 1>I love the way the Boys are playing right now,

0:21:08.520 --> 0:21:11.480
<v Speaker 1>but penalties. I think we're thirty first in the league

0:21:11.480 --> 0:21:15.960
<v Speaker 1>and penalties big plays. And then I'm really still concerned

0:21:15.960 --> 0:21:18.480
<v Speaker 1>about our run defense. And I wanted to see what

0:21:18.520 --> 0:21:20.919
<v Speaker 1>you guys thought about that because I think over the

0:21:20.960 --> 0:21:23.520
<v Speaker 1>next five six games we're gonna be playing some teams

0:21:23.560 --> 0:21:26.800
<v Speaker 1>that if we continue down that road with these three issues,

0:21:26.880 --> 0:21:29.000
<v Speaker 1>I think it's going to buy this in the butt.

0:21:29.200 --> 0:21:30.560
<v Speaker 1>But I just want to see what you guys thought

0:21:30.560 --> 0:21:33.280
<v Speaker 1>about that. Thanks, I'm a good day. Thanks Bob. I

0:21:33.280 --> 0:21:36.520
<v Speaker 1>appreciate your call. Bob with the tough question. Yeah, no,

0:21:36.600 --> 0:21:39.760
<v Speaker 1>and I agree on all three of those. I think

0:21:39.760 --> 0:21:42.320
<v Speaker 1>there have been too many penalties. You saw that front

0:21:42.400 --> 0:21:45.200
<v Speaker 1>and center in the first half of the New England game,

0:21:45.320 --> 0:21:48.480
<v Speaker 1>where shooting yourself in the foot was ultimately what made

0:21:48.520 --> 0:21:52.040
<v Speaker 1>that game close. The run defense has it's I think

0:21:52.040 --> 0:21:55.240
<v Speaker 1>it might in the eye test it's been better, but

0:21:55.400 --> 0:21:58.680
<v Speaker 1>rankings wise, it has not been better. And then, of course,

0:21:59.040 --> 0:22:00.800
<v Speaker 1>like you said, the big play, we've known that's been

0:22:00.840 --> 0:22:03.040
<v Speaker 1>an issue. But Rob, what do you think about those three?

0:22:03.080 --> 0:22:04.840
<v Speaker 1>That was actually something we talked about. I brought it

0:22:04.920 --> 0:22:07.000
<v Speaker 1>up at the end of Mick Shots last week was

0:22:07.400 --> 0:22:10.280
<v Speaker 1>run defense and the big plays in the passing game

0:22:10.320 --> 0:22:12.080
<v Speaker 1>are obvious. They got to cut down on those. Joe

0:22:12.080 --> 0:22:15.040
<v Speaker 1>Witt talked a lot about that last week. But I

0:22:15.080 --> 0:22:16.520
<v Speaker 1>wonder if teams are going to try to test the

0:22:16.560 --> 0:22:18.679
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys on the run. The problem is they teams have

0:22:18.720 --> 0:22:20.800
<v Speaker 1>been behind so much, they've been beating up on teams

0:22:20.840 --> 0:22:23.199
<v Speaker 1>and they haven't run the ball. The Patriots made an

0:22:23.200 --> 0:22:26.199
<v Speaker 1>effort on like two separate drives. We're just running right

0:22:26.240 --> 0:22:30.080
<v Speaker 1>at you, and they had some success and I forget

0:22:30.119 --> 0:22:32.240
<v Speaker 1>the number. Heck, I brought it up last week. The

0:22:32.280 --> 0:22:34.560
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys have like one hundred and ninety carries so far,

0:22:34.680 --> 0:22:37.280
<v Speaker 1>opponents are like one twenty something exactly. They haven't been

0:22:37.320 --> 0:22:39.280
<v Speaker 1>tested as much I do. I'm with Kyle. I think

0:22:39.320 --> 0:22:43.960
<v Speaker 1>it's better. But Dalvin Cook's coming, so how do they

0:22:43.960 --> 0:22:45.959
<v Speaker 1>how do they handle that? They did a pretty good

0:22:46.040 --> 0:22:50.240
<v Speaker 1>job on him last year, so we'll see. Unfortunately, Bob,

0:22:50.320 --> 0:22:53.600
<v Speaker 1>you can't be great at everything. And when it comes

0:22:53.640 --> 0:22:56.840
<v Speaker 1>to the big plays, big plays come with playing man

0:22:56.920 --> 0:23:00.159
<v Speaker 1>to man. You play man to man coverage and get

0:23:00.160 --> 0:23:02.480
<v Speaker 1>pressure up front. You're gonna be you know, you're gonna

0:23:02.480 --> 0:23:04.720
<v Speaker 1>be subject to some big plays occasionally, So yes, you

0:23:04.760 --> 0:23:07.399
<v Speaker 1>want to cut that down. But the big plays that

0:23:07.440 --> 0:23:10.760
<v Speaker 1>we give up don't put us at a disadvantage to

0:23:10.880 --> 0:23:13.600
<v Speaker 1>winning the ball games. It sounds real bad, but that's

0:23:13.680 --> 0:23:15.960
<v Speaker 1>the reality of it. So you're gonna give up. You

0:23:16.000 --> 0:23:18.440
<v Speaker 1>give up big plays occasionally to ensure that you play

0:23:18.480 --> 0:23:20.440
<v Speaker 1>man and man coverage majority of the time and keep

0:23:20.440 --> 0:23:23.639
<v Speaker 1>that pressure on you with your front seven um on

0:23:23.800 --> 0:23:27.880
<v Speaker 1>the penalties. That's just guys, got to play smarter, that's guys.

0:23:28.240 --> 0:23:30.520
<v Speaker 1>I gotta put the derener away, stop shooting themselves in

0:23:30.560 --> 0:23:34.200
<v Speaker 1>the foot. And that's just that's just being intentional about

0:23:34.520 --> 0:23:39.040
<v Speaker 1>being you know, fundamentally sound and then doing the things

0:23:39.040 --> 0:23:40.960
<v Speaker 1>that you're supposed to do and not to hurt your team.

0:23:40.960 --> 0:23:43.280
<v Speaker 1>And that's you know, personal fouls, that's holding, that's all

0:23:43.280 --> 0:23:44.920
<v Speaker 1>those things. A lot of that stuff just comes from

0:23:44.920 --> 0:23:47.960
<v Speaker 1>being lazy with your mechanics. Um and then what was

0:23:47.960 --> 0:23:50.119
<v Speaker 1>the last portion. The last portion was the run defense.

0:23:50.440 --> 0:23:52.199
<v Speaker 1>The run defense is, yes, I do agree with you,

0:23:52.240 --> 0:23:53.920
<v Speaker 1>that's something that we have to show up. But to

0:23:54.080 --> 0:23:56.760
<v Speaker 1>Rob's point, you know this particular team, it doesn't kill

0:23:56.840 --> 0:24:00.520
<v Speaker 1>you as long as you're up long as as long

0:24:00.560 --> 0:24:02.320
<v Speaker 1>as you're up, it doesn't kill you. So yes, you

0:24:02.359 --> 0:24:04.560
<v Speaker 1>want to stop it, but you have to kind of

0:24:04.560 --> 0:24:06.240
<v Speaker 1>pick your poison in this league. Do you want to

0:24:06.240 --> 0:24:08.320
<v Speaker 1>stop the run? Do you want to stop the pass?

0:24:08.680 --> 0:24:10.679
<v Speaker 1>If we're a team that's built to stop the pass,

0:24:10.880 --> 0:24:12.879
<v Speaker 1>then we are obviously going to give up some rushing

0:24:12.960 --> 0:24:16.120
<v Speaker 1>yards built by a team rushing against us. Effectively, as

0:24:16.119 --> 0:24:18.160
<v Speaker 1>long as we're ahead, they can't eat away too much

0:24:18.160 --> 0:24:20.159
<v Speaker 1>clock because it's at a disadvantage to them have an

0:24:20.160 --> 0:24:22.560
<v Speaker 1>opportunity to win a ballgame. The rushing yards thing is

0:24:22.960 --> 0:24:26.280
<v Speaker 1>so intriguing to me because they're fifth in the NFL.

0:24:26.440 --> 0:24:29.399
<v Speaker 1>Think you in terms of rushing yards allowed, that's not

0:24:29.640 --> 0:24:33.320
<v Speaker 1>very not bad at all. They've been playing ahead. The

0:24:33.440 --> 0:24:36.240
<v Speaker 1>other side of it is in terms of yards per play,

0:24:36.359 --> 0:24:39.040
<v Speaker 1>they're eighteenth, so the middle of the road in terms

0:24:39.080 --> 0:24:40.919
<v Speaker 1>of yards per play, and that I think it's a

0:24:40.960 --> 0:24:44.320
<v Speaker 1>direct indication that teams are going away from the run

0:24:44.880 --> 0:24:46.600
<v Speaker 1>throughout the course of a game because they're trying to

0:24:46.600 --> 0:24:48.399
<v Speaker 1>play catch up and they're trying to keep pace with

0:24:48.440 --> 0:24:51.480
<v Speaker 1>this offense. But if you're giving up eighty six yards

0:24:51.560 --> 0:24:53.960
<v Speaker 1>per game, and like Rob said, it's not like they've

0:24:54.000 --> 0:24:57.879
<v Speaker 1>been ultra tested at the moment. You had Sequon Barkley

0:24:57.920 --> 0:25:01.040
<v Speaker 1>for a half, you had or not even a half

0:25:01.040 --> 0:25:04.879
<v Speaker 1>at that point, you had Trebba Hubbard, no Christian McCaffrey.

0:25:04.920 --> 0:25:07.440
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna have Dalvin Cook on the horizon. This is

0:25:07.480 --> 0:25:10.200
<v Speaker 1>going to be the best test to this point, I

0:25:10.240 --> 0:25:12.199
<v Speaker 1>think for the run defense. So let's go in the

0:25:12.200 --> 0:25:16.800
<v Speaker 1>Hotel Todd machine back to twenty twenty. All right, let's

0:25:16.800 --> 0:25:21.760
<v Speaker 1>go all right, because right now, if you guys are

0:25:21.800 --> 0:25:24.480
<v Speaker 1>forgotten about the Cleveland game where we gave up three

0:25:24.600 --> 0:25:28.000
<v Speaker 1>hundred yards No, because because I think that we have

0:25:28.080 --> 0:25:30.840
<v Speaker 1>to go to the comparison so that people can keep

0:25:30.880 --> 0:25:34.040
<v Speaker 1>in context where this defense is right now, Hey, the

0:25:34.080 --> 0:25:35.960
<v Speaker 1>first couple of games we were we didn't give up

0:25:35.960 --> 0:25:39.199
<v Speaker 1>a hundred yard rusher, I think, and you guys are

0:25:39.200 --> 0:25:40.920
<v Speaker 1>gonna fact check me on this, but I think the

0:25:40.960 --> 0:25:43.040
<v Speaker 1>first hundred yard rushing we gave up was last week.

0:25:43.200 --> 0:25:46.200
<v Speaker 1>It was okay. So like, I know, we're nitpicking, and

0:25:46.560 --> 0:25:49.320
<v Speaker 1>we want this defense to be you know, eighty five years.

0:25:49.359 --> 0:25:51.000
<v Speaker 1>That's when people pull out when they talk about a

0:25:51.040 --> 0:25:53.760
<v Speaker 1>great defense. But still I think that when you look

0:25:53.800 --> 0:25:55.560
<v Speaker 1>at what the defense did last year and you do

0:25:55.600 --> 0:25:57.720
<v Speaker 1>in a comparison, I think these guys are leaps and

0:25:57.800 --> 0:26:00.879
<v Speaker 1>bounds better than what they were. Yes, Dalvin Cook is

0:26:01.280 --> 0:26:03.920
<v Speaker 1>going to be at Bank of American Stadium waiting on them,

0:26:04.320 --> 0:26:06.520
<v Speaker 1>and he's one of the best in the business. But

0:26:06.560 --> 0:26:10.320
<v Speaker 1>I believe our defensive front and our linebackers, and along

0:26:10.359 --> 0:26:13.560
<v Speaker 1>with your run curse, I think that should help you

0:26:13.600 --> 0:26:16.000
<v Speaker 1>sleep at night knowing that this defense is doing some

0:26:16.160 --> 0:26:19.320
<v Speaker 1>really good things at the front line to stop the run.

0:26:19.560 --> 0:26:22.159
<v Speaker 1>Where I think we definitely have to make a improvement

0:26:22.440 --> 0:26:24.280
<v Speaker 1>is the big plays in the passing game. I think

0:26:24.320 --> 0:26:27.720
<v Speaker 1>with teams are gashing us. And it is true we're

0:26:27.720 --> 0:26:30.080
<v Speaker 1>playing with the lead and they're having to play from behind,

0:26:30.119 --> 0:26:32.880
<v Speaker 1>and maybe that's where those yards are coming from. But

0:26:33.320 --> 0:26:36.359
<v Speaker 1>that's all in all. I think from a rush defensive standpoint,

0:26:36.400 --> 0:26:38.720
<v Speaker 1>we have fixed a lot of the cracks that we

0:26:38.760 --> 0:26:42.960
<v Speaker 1>had no doubt, no doubt. It's definitely better. But Isaiah's

0:26:43.000 --> 0:26:45.600
<v Speaker 1>right too about the big plays, because Trayvon Dix is

0:26:45.600 --> 0:26:47.440
<v Speaker 1>gonna match up, he's gonna play man, and there's been

0:26:47.480 --> 0:26:50.040
<v Speaker 1>times when he's gonna guess and he's gonna take some

0:26:50.160 --> 0:26:53.760
<v Speaker 1>chances and it's it's helped him get turnovers. It will

0:26:53.800 --> 0:26:56.480
<v Speaker 1>also he's gonna give up some plays too, and on

0:26:56.520 --> 0:26:58.119
<v Speaker 1>the other side as well, and some of that is

0:26:58.200 --> 0:27:01.040
<v Speaker 1>due to playing from behind. I'd like to see how

0:27:01.040 --> 0:27:04.480
<v Speaker 1>many times teams have thrown on the Cowboys compared to

0:27:04.480 --> 0:27:08.120
<v Speaker 1>other defenses. I mean, that's that's lopsided too, because they've

0:27:08.119 --> 0:27:11.040
<v Speaker 1>been in some blowout games, So some of the stats

0:27:11.040 --> 0:27:14.240
<v Speaker 1>are skewed. But I think there's definitely room for improvement

0:27:14.240 --> 0:27:16.040
<v Speaker 1>on both sides. You have to look at the story

0:27:16.119 --> 0:27:18.400
<v Speaker 1>that the stats tell you. Can't just look at rank

0:27:18.680 --> 0:27:21.320
<v Speaker 1>can't say that yeah, please don't look at that mean

0:27:21.320 --> 0:27:24.680
<v Speaker 1>because the reality is yes, heck, our running, our running

0:27:24.760 --> 0:27:30.000
<v Speaker 1>defense has improved drastically. However, if we play a game, um,

0:27:30.119 --> 0:27:32.240
<v Speaker 1>say we play Tampa again. Say we just run into

0:27:32.280 --> 0:27:34.200
<v Speaker 1>those guys down the road and we have a close

0:27:34.240 --> 0:27:36.960
<v Speaker 1>game because we were pretty evenly matched, and we get

0:27:37.000 --> 0:27:40.320
<v Speaker 1>into a close, tight knit game, they're gonna run the ball.

0:27:40.880 --> 0:27:44.120
<v Speaker 1>They're gonna run the ball, and we really aren't stopping

0:27:44.119 --> 0:27:46.760
<v Speaker 1>anybody from running the ball. Teams are just simply abandoning

0:27:46.880 --> 0:27:50.159
<v Speaker 1>the run. Yeah. Yeah, So this can come back and

0:27:50.160 --> 0:27:52.440
<v Speaker 1>bite us if we don't sure this up to your point, Bob,

0:27:52.560 --> 0:27:54.439
<v Speaker 1>if we don't tighten this up, when we get in

0:27:54.480 --> 0:27:56.239
<v Speaker 1>a close game against a team that can, that can

0:27:56.240 --> 0:27:58.160
<v Speaker 1>go head to hear what are scoring wise, and it's

0:27:58.200 --> 0:28:00.240
<v Speaker 1>and it's tight end and where it's a one posession game,

0:28:00.400 --> 0:28:03.399
<v Speaker 1>teams will decide, Okay, y'all can't y'all, you guys are

0:28:03.400 --> 0:28:05.400
<v Speaker 1>giving up over four yards are rush We'll just run

0:28:05.400 --> 0:28:07.680
<v Speaker 1>a ball three times straight? No, I and I agree

0:28:07.680 --> 0:28:09.320
<v Speaker 1>with that, and I hope to and I hope to

0:28:09.359 --> 0:28:12.320
<v Speaker 1>see Tampa again because because you know what, we're gonna

0:28:12.359 --> 0:28:15.120
<v Speaker 1>run on them because we did. Yeah, and so that's

0:28:15.119 --> 0:28:18.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna be the difference between seeing them again as hit.

0:28:18.800 --> 0:28:24.320
<v Speaker 1>Let's go by the way out of the top five

0:28:24.400 --> 0:28:26.960
<v Speaker 1>teams just kind of going along with with a band

0:28:27.080 --> 0:28:29.199
<v Speaker 1>or with stopping the run and then giving up the

0:28:29.200 --> 0:28:31.680
<v Speaker 1>big play. Additionally, out of the top five teams and

0:28:31.760 --> 0:28:36.080
<v Speaker 1>run defense so far this year, Tampa Bay, Cleveland, New Orleans, Baltimore, Dallas,

0:28:36.119 --> 0:28:39.600
<v Speaker 1>that's the five. Only one of those are in the

0:28:39.640 --> 0:28:42.840
<v Speaker 1>top twenty in passing defense as well, only one, and

0:28:42.880 --> 0:28:47.520
<v Speaker 1>that's Cleveland. Everybody else in the top five is twenty

0:28:47.560 --> 0:28:49.920
<v Speaker 1>third if you're Tampa Bay, twentieth, if you're New Orleans,

0:28:49.960 --> 0:28:52.600
<v Speaker 1>twenty ninth if you're Baltimore. And Dallas is sitting in

0:28:52.600 --> 0:28:54.840
<v Speaker 1>the twenty eighth in terms of passing yardage allowed. So

0:28:55.280 --> 0:28:57.920
<v Speaker 1>there is a balance. It's always going to be there.

0:28:58.360 --> 0:29:00.840
<v Speaker 1>That balances, and especially like what Rob was saying, if

0:29:01.080 --> 0:29:04.000
<v Speaker 1>teams are abandoning the run throwing more, that's how that

0:29:04.080 --> 0:29:06.440
<v Speaker 1>number is going to skyrocket as well. All right, we've

0:29:06.480 --> 0:29:10.240
<v Speaker 1>got Alex from Arkansas on the line. Alex, how's it going.

0:29:11.160 --> 0:29:14.400
<v Speaker 1>It's all good. It's good. Hell y'all doing man, We're good. Alex.

0:29:14.760 --> 0:29:19.480
<v Speaker 1>What's heavy? Man? I appreciate I appreciate the job you do.

0:29:19.840 --> 0:29:24.920
<v Speaker 1>Rob P. Hagman. Hey, man, I don't even have a

0:29:25.000 --> 0:29:26.880
<v Speaker 1>christ and I'm just gonna be honest with you guys.

0:29:27.320 --> 0:29:29.240
<v Speaker 1>I've been in the valley down in the valley with

0:29:29.440 --> 0:29:32.480
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys one and fifteen seasons, and I've been to

0:29:32.520 --> 0:29:35.840
<v Speaker 1>the Mountain Top three times in the nineties. Man, I'm

0:29:35.840 --> 0:29:38.720
<v Speaker 1>just excited about the prospect of what we could do

0:29:39.120 --> 0:29:42.120
<v Speaker 1>because as I hit the nail on the head about everything,

0:29:42.680 --> 0:29:49.600
<v Speaker 1>the culture change, the talent, the competition in uh in camp, everything,

0:29:50.320 --> 0:29:55.480
<v Speaker 1>and the only difference in this league that could stop

0:29:55.520 --> 0:30:00.520
<v Speaker 1>our offense is the Cowboys offense. It's all about exce acution.

0:30:01.000 --> 0:30:04.560
<v Speaker 1>It is ridiculous what Killen Moore and Dan Quinn has

0:30:04.600 --> 0:30:07.120
<v Speaker 1>done to this team. Man, I just want to wish

0:30:07.160 --> 0:30:11.560
<v Speaker 1>you all a blessed day. I love the Cowboys and hey, now,

0:30:11.640 --> 0:30:13.960
<v Speaker 1>blessed day in a week. May y'all do a great job.

0:30:14.000 --> 0:30:15.880
<v Speaker 1>We thank you, Okay, you guys. Out of the closest

0:30:15.920 --> 0:30:19.320
<v Speaker 1>thing we could get to get to the Cowboys. And

0:30:19.440 --> 0:30:23.080
<v Speaker 1>I listened to the podcast every day faithfully because I'm

0:30:23.080 --> 0:30:25.480
<v Speaker 1>not able to call him and I need to get

0:30:25.480 --> 0:30:33.160
<v Speaker 1>to work before get in troubles week Cowboys. Here you go, Alex. Yeah,

0:30:33.160 --> 0:30:37.520
<v Speaker 1>I appreciate the love and the many that's a smart dude.

0:30:37.560 --> 0:30:41.480
<v Speaker 1>That is a smart dude. Man. I love that he

0:30:41.600 --> 0:30:45.160
<v Speaker 1>kind of talks about just the kind of portrays what

0:30:45.240 --> 0:30:48.200
<v Speaker 1>a lot of Cowboys fans are feeling right now, kind

0:30:48.200 --> 0:30:50.800
<v Speaker 1>of portrays all of that. And so that's that's always awesome.

0:30:50.840 --> 0:30:53.800
<v Speaker 1>We love calls like that. All right, Scott from Wyoming

0:30:54.000 --> 0:30:56.760
<v Speaker 1>on the line, Scott, how's he going? You're on talking Cowboys?

0:30:57.600 --> 0:31:02.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh excellent, Good morning, gentlemen, Good morning. I a long

0:31:02.360 --> 0:31:06.520
<v Speaker 1>time fan. And one of the one of the cool

0:31:06.600 --> 0:31:10.640
<v Speaker 1>things this season is watching Dak take command of the team,

0:31:12.400 --> 0:31:17.440
<v Speaker 1>watch Stabok do it and and on. It's it's a

0:31:17.480 --> 0:31:24.600
<v Speaker 1>neat process. H yeah, no doubt. I'm just yeah, Um,

0:31:24.800 --> 0:31:27.680
<v Speaker 1>you guys, I think it was like yesterday, Um, you know,

0:31:27.800 --> 0:31:30.680
<v Speaker 1>talking about you know, trades and stuff like that. You know,

0:31:30.760 --> 0:31:32.960
<v Speaker 1>at the end of every season, we always are at

0:31:33.000 --> 0:31:36.360
<v Speaker 1>the free agents period. We always end up, you know,

0:31:36.520 --> 0:31:38.920
<v Speaker 1>we can't afford a lot of guys. So you know,

0:31:38.960 --> 0:31:40.800
<v Speaker 1>I would I would try to keep as many people

0:31:40.800 --> 0:31:42.760
<v Speaker 1>as they can afford, you know, looking at that and

0:31:42.840 --> 0:31:46.400
<v Speaker 1>all and so um, that's uh, you know, it's that's

0:31:46.440 --> 0:31:50.320
<v Speaker 1>definitely always something to think about. Yeah, those are two

0:31:50.400 --> 0:31:52.560
<v Speaker 1>very good points. I mean, you talk about Dak Prescott

0:31:52.600 --> 0:31:55.320
<v Speaker 1>and the way that he is kind of transitioned into

0:31:55.360 --> 0:31:59.760
<v Speaker 1>that leadership standpoint and from a quarterback position, especially at

0:31:59.800 --> 0:32:03.800
<v Speaker 1>at the Cowboys. Thanks for the call, Scott, Especially at

0:32:03.800 --> 0:32:06.040
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys. You're the face of the franchise, and not

0:32:06.200 --> 0:32:09.800
<v Speaker 1>just a franchise, the franchise in terms of sports and

0:32:09.880 --> 0:32:13.120
<v Speaker 1>American sports and even across the world, you are the

0:32:13.160 --> 0:32:16.840
<v Speaker 1>face of potentially the sport. And so Dak has really

0:32:16.880 --> 0:32:19.360
<v Speaker 1>embraced that, not only with the contract but with his

0:32:19.400 --> 0:32:21.520
<v Speaker 1>play on the field. And I think that's something that

0:32:21.560 --> 0:32:24.640
<v Speaker 1>has definitely been looked at from Cowboys fans. And I'll

0:32:24.640 --> 0:32:26.600
<v Speaker 1>get into the trade talk in a minute, because he

0:32:26.640 --> 0:32:28.800
<v Speaker 1>did bring up an interesting point there, But what do

0:32:28.800 --> 0:32:30.400
<v Speaker 1>you think about what he said about Dak. Yeah, I

0:32:30.440 --> 0:32:32.960
<v Speaker 1>would just say to his point, like, it takes a

0:32:33.000 --> 0:32:37.160
<v Speaker 1>certain level of mental toughness to play here and play

0:32:37.200 --> 0:32:40.200
<v Speaker 1>this position here, because there's a lot of great that

0:32:40.200 --> 0:32:42.280
<v Speaker 1>comes with it and there's a lot of criticism that

0:32:42.320 --> 0:32:46.200
<v Speaker 1>comes with it, probably too much on both sides, depending

0:32:46.240 --> 0:32:48.320
<v Speaker 1>on how you how you're doing. So it takes a

0:32:48.400 --> 0:32:51.760
<v Speaker 1>certain guy who's able to handle that all that pressure

0:32:52.080 --> 0:32:54.120
<v Speaker 1>in addition to the physical talents that you have. And

0:32:54.200 --> 0:32:56.200
<v Speaker 1>Dak has that and he showed it just by coming

0:32:56.240 --> 0:33:00.840
<v Speaker 1>back from the injury last year, how mentally tough he is. Ye, No,

0:33:01.000 --> 0:33:03.040
<v Speaker 1>I agree, he did him. I mean, he's he's he's

0:33:03.080 --> 0:33:04.240
<v Speaker 1>the guy. I mean, he's the guy for a reason.

0:33:04.280 --> 0:33:06.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean, obviously everybody talks about New York when here

0:33:06.320 --> 0:33:08.480
<v Speaker 1>talking about quarterbacks in the stress of being you know,

0:33:08.520 --> 0:33:10.920
<v Speaker 1>the guy in New York, it's nothing in comparison there

0:33:11.000 --> 0:33:14.360
<v Speaker 1>to hear. It just isn't um, I say, their second fiddle.

0:33:14.960 --> 0:33:17.520
<v Speaker 1>But Dallas has a lot of stress and he handles

0:33:17.520 --> 0:33:19.320
<v Speaker 1>it with grace. So he's he's a great dude for

0:33:19.320 --> 0:33:23.280
<v Speaker 1>that one. Is there another place even close? Maybe if

0:33:23.320 --> 0:33:25.640
<v Speaker 1>you're a fortune one hundred CEO or something like that.

0:33:25.760 --> 0:33:27.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's it's the premier job in the in

0:33:28.720 --> 0:33:31.600
<v Speaker 1>the world. Who who wouldn't want to be the quarterback

0:33:31.640 --> 0:33:33.840
<v Speaker 1>for the Dallas Cowboys and just the lineage and the

0:33:33.920 --> 0:33:36.760
<v Speaker 1>legacy that comes with being a quarterback here, and I

0:33:36.760 --> 0:33:39.120
<v Speaker 1>think he was born for the pressure that he's faced.

0:33:39.320 --> 0:33:41.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't and I don't know if anyone has ever

0:33:41.600 --> 0:33:45.080
<v Speaker 1>taken it so effortlessly as Dak has. I mean the

0:33:45.120 --> 0:33:47.960
<v Speaker 1>way that he takes on the media, the way that

0:33:48.080 --> 0:33:50.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, when problems happen, when the with the whole

0:33:50.800 --> 0:33:53.320
<v Speaker 1>Him with Romo deal, he just took it with a

0:33:53.360 --> 0:33:55.560
<v Speaker 1>matter of grace and just went about his business the

0:33:55.640 --> 0:33:58.880
<v Speaker 1>right way. And so I can appreciate that, and especially

0:33:58.880 --> 0:34:01.920
<v Speaker 1>when he makes note of the him commanding the offense,

0:34:01.960 --> 0:34:04.800
<v Speaker 1>and I think that's just him being locking step as

0:34:04.840 --> 0:34:07.520
<v Speaker 1>we've mentioned with Kellen Moore and all of those things click,

0:34:07.560 --> 0:34:09.600
<v Speaker 1>and it's just good to see him come back from

0:34:09.600 --> 0:34:12.919
<v Speaker 1>the ankle injury, get the the contract that he has

0:34:12.920 --> 0:34:15.040
<v Speaker 1>and just be the man that he is for this

0:34:15.040 --> 0:34:17.800
<v Speaker 1>team and represented he referenced stallback right off the bat,

0:34:17.840 --> 0:34:19.719
<v Speaker 1>and that's that's the thing. It is the lineage, and

0:34:19.719 --> 0:34:22.640
<v Speaker 1>it's what people expect. And you were here in the

0:34:22.760 --> 0:34:25.880
<v Speaker 1>late oughts. I guess when Tony there was a honeymoon

0:34:25.920 --> 0:34:28.719
<v Speaker 1>period for Tony, like in six and oh seven and

0:34:28.760 --> 0:34:30.840
<v Speaker 1>then oh eight, things didn't go so good and a

0:34:30.880 --> 0:34:33.560
<v Speaker 1>lot of people turn on him, and so that's that's

0:34:33.680 --> 0:34:36.600
<v Speaker 1>part of this job. Yep. You know, I watched him

0:34:36.640 --> 0:34:40.520
<v Speaker 1>boob Troy Aikman, and I still to this day I

0:34:40.520 --> 0:34:42.399
<v Speaker 1>think it was one of the most disrespectful things I've

0:34:42.400 --> 0:34:44.600
<v Speaker 1>ever seen, was was Troy Aikman being booed at home,

0:34:44.920 --> 0:34:47.960
<v Speaker 1>and so it's it's a lot and Troy Troy won

0:34:48.040 --> 0:34:51.000
<v Speaker 1>him three yep. So there's a lot of pressure. What

0:34:51.239 --> 0:34:53.480
<v Speaker 1>was the toughest thing Tony went through while you were

0:34:53.560 --> 0:34:58.719
<v Speaker 1>here that you remember? Is there anything that's stuck out specifically? No?

0:35:00.800 --> 0:35:03.560
<v Speaker 1>I think really just meeting the expectations not only of

0:35:03.680 --> 0:35:07.000
<v Speaker 1>the general public, but the organization and your teammates. I

0:35:07.000 --> 0:35:09.480
<v Speaker 1>mean that those are all three different standards, you know.

0:35:09.520 --> 0:35:11.480
<v Speaker 1>That's that you're trying to meet. This this isn't one

0:35:12.200 --> 0:35:14.000
<v Speaker 1>is not one thing that you just add I have

0:35:14.160 --> 0:35:16.080
<v Speaker 1>come in out have to be this guy and that

0:35:16.080 --> 0:35:18.960
<v Speaker 1>that works for everybody. That's not the case. You know,

0:35:18.960 --> 0:35:20.239
<v Speaker 1>you gotta be you gotta be a leader in the

0:35:20.239 --> 0:35:22.000
<v Speaker 1>locker room, so you guys respect you. You got to

0:35:22.000 --> 0:35:23.880
<v Speaker 1>be resilient on the field, so guys respect you in

0:35:23.920 --> 0:35:26.520
<v Speaker 1>that regard. So you so you can't lead them. UM,

0:35:26.640 --> 0:35:30.400
<v Speaker 1>you have to be a public um, a public figure

0:35:30.640 --> 0:35:32.960
<v Speaker 1>to be able to handle all the responsibilities that that

0:35:33.040 --> 0:35:36.080
<v Speaker 1>the organization places on you. UM. And then you have

0:35:36.120 --> 0:35:38.600
<v Speaker 1>a responsibility just to be just simply a good guy.

0:35:38.640 --> 0:35:41.239
<v Speaker 1>You mean he can't go out in public, right, he can't.

0:35:41.239 --> 0:35:43.319
<v Speaker 1>He can't do normal stuff. Right. So there's a whole

0:35:43.320 --> 0:35:45.759
<v Speaker 1>lot of things. There's certain every every aspect of your

0:35:45.760 --> 0:35:48.319
<v Speaker 1>life is tested and um it's a lot to bear.

0:35:48.880 --> 0:35:50.439
<v Speaker 1>And you know all about that you can't go ahead

0:35:50.440 --> 0:35:52.920
<v Speaker 1>in public? Yeah yeah, they just said they know me

0:35:52.960 --> 0:35:57.120
<v Speaker 1>as heck and a security guard. Yeah you know, you lie.

0:36:00.880 --> 0:36:06.000
<v Speaker 1>It's a quick way to't hide money. Is all right?

0:36:06.040 --> 0:36:07.600
<v Speaker 1>Well we come back. I want to hit the second

0:39:07.920 --> 0:39:15.240
<v Speaker 1>was combos combos. It's that. Hey, I can't see crazy.

0:39:15.360 --> 0:39:17.320
<v Speaker 1>Did you see how fresh he was looking on ESPN

0:39:17.320 --> 0:39:19.880
<v Speaker 1>with the the other days? Yes? I did. Fired. He

0:39:20.320 --> 0:39:22.840
<v Speaker 1>was suit game was his month of Betty. Thank you.

0:39:23.800 --> 0:39:26.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to learn. I did the tie tie tie

0:39:26.520 --> 0:39:31.239
<v Speaker 1>that you told me. That's why I'm learning. You give

0:39:31.239 --> 0:39:35.800
<v Speaker 1>me something. I thought he did that his though. It

0:39:36.760 --> 0:39:38.640
<v Speaker 1>taught me, but it was it was at the Oxford

0:39:39.040 --> 0:39:43.239
<v Speaker 1>style or something different. Double it up, Okay, double it up. Yeah,

0:39:43.640 --> 0:39:45.400
<v Speaker 1>it was pretty nice. I like it. I'm gonna do

0:39:45.440 --> 0:39:47.680
<v Speaker 1>it with all my ties from here on out, all right.

0:39:48.239 --> 0:39:50.200
<v Speaker 1>I kind of wanted to go back off of what

0:39:50.360 --> 0:39:54.799
<v Speaker 1>Scott's second question. Second part of his question was on

0:39:54.840 --> 0:39:56.839
<v Speaker 1>the fan call. In the prior segment, he was talking

0:39:56.880 --> 0:40:00.400
<v Speaker 1>about the trade conversation we had earlier. There's a lot

0:40:00.440 --> 0:40:03.160
<v Speaker 1>of free agents available, and we mentioned that in the

0:40:03.200 --> 0:40:07.680
<v Speaker 1>conversation about maybe Michael Gallop and who was a potential

0:40:07.719 --> 0:40:11.879
<v Speaker 1>trade piece. Is that a possibility to shut down trade

0:40:11.920 --> 0:40:15.360
<v Speaker 1>talks because you know, you want to save some of

0:40:15.360 --> 0:40:17.560
<v Speaker 1>that capital later on, and the contracts that you would

0:40:17.560 --> 0:40:21.520
<v Speaker 1>be bringing in would potentially upend any sort of cap

0:40:21.560 --> 0:40:24.080
<v Speaker 1>space that you currently do have to bring anybody back

0:40:24.120 --> 0:40:28.759
<v Speaker 1>next year. Yeah, I'm sure that's a factor because we

0:40:28.800 --> 0:40:31.600
<v Speaker 1>mentioned the guys that are up after this year and

0:40:31.920 --> 0:40:33.879
<v Speaker 1>hex right, I mean the CAP's gonna go up, it's

0:40:33.920 --> 0:40:36.920
<v Speaker 1>not gonna go up substantially. I think it's probably closer

0:40:36.920 --> 0:40:39.680
<v Speaker 1>to what it probably should have been last year. Now

0:40:39.719 --> 0:40:41.400
<v Speaker 1>that you got at tendance back, the revenue for the

0:40:41.480 --> 0:40:43.840
<v Speaker 1>league should definitely go up. But yeah, they got to

0:40:43.840 --> 0:40:47.480
<v Speaker 1>factor that in. You know, there's only so much they

0:40:47.480 --> 0:40:49.840
<v Speaker 1>can budget. Now, maybe maybe you don't care, Maybe you know,

0:40:49.960 --> 0:40:52.960
<v Speaker 1>maybe it's you know, if the situation where you know,

0:40:53.000 --> 0:40:55.319
<v Speaker 1>the NBA they do that as expiring contract, what you're

0:40:55.360 --> 0:40:57.759
<v Speaker 1>going for it, you know, and that's something they could

0:40:57.840 --> 0:40:59.680
<v Speaker 1>keep in the back of their mind. I'm not thinking

0:40:59.719 --> 0:41:03.600
<v Speaker 1>any think specific, but they Jerry said it though yesterday

0:41:03.600 --> 0:41:05.040
<v Speaker 1>they got a lot of guys coming off. I r

0:41:05.200 --> 0:41:07.799
<v Speaker 1>that they're pretty deep in most spots. You know. I

0:41:07.840 --> 0:41:12.000
<v Speaker 1>don't know, is there am I missing a position? His

0:41:12.080 --> 0:41:15.440
<v Speaker 1>face right now, I'm just saying, you're this is as

0:41:15.480 --> 0:41:18.440
<v Speaker 1>close as you've been in a very long time. This

0:41:18.520 --> 0:41:20.319
<v Speaker 1>is as close as you've been. You feel good about it.

0:41:20.360 --> 0:41:22.480
<v Speaker 1>You hope that you can continue pushing the envelope the

0:41:22.520 --> 0:41:24.440
<v Speaker 1>way you in which you are Um, in the success

0:41:24.480 --> 0:41:27.520
<v Speaker 1>that you're having, You're in a very competitive division, very

0:41:27.960 --> 0:41:32.160
<v Speaker 1>competitive vision, not the NFC. We got all our conference?

0:41:32.239 --> 0:41:35.760
<v Speaker 1>Is that the best way? Sorry? Sorry, a very competitive conference. Um,

0:41:35.840 --> 0:41:38.399
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna need everything you got. You're gonna need everything

0:41:38.400 --> 0:41:41.239
<v Speaker 1>you got. There's there's something to being competent with what

0:41:41.360 --> 0:41:45.640
<v Speaker 1>you have. There's also something too, Let's let's let's double

0:41:45.680 --> 0:41:47.520
<v Speaker 1>down on that. Let's add let's let's add to that,

0:41:47.880 --> 0:41:50.600
<v Speaker 1>how about we secure the bag per se um. And

0:41:50.640 --> 0:41:52.600
<v Speaker 1>I think that the Cowboys are in the best position

0:41:52.640 --> 0:41:55.560
<v Speaker 1>to secure the bag. I think there are players out

0:41:55.600 --> 0:41:58.439
<v Speaker 1>there that teams would be willing to deal. We can't

0:41:58.480 --> 0:42:00.759
<v Speaker 1>say names on the show. There's players out there that

0:42:00.800 --> 0:42:06.040
<v Speaker 1>can have a media impact on this team, whether I'm

0:42:06.040 --> 0:42:09.319
<v Speaker 1>speaking specifically on defense that I have positions that I'm

0:42:09.320 --> 0:42:11.040
<v Speaker 1>thinking about, and I think that there's a there's a

0:42:11.040 --> 0:42:13.680
<v Speaker 1>player or two that we can add that would literally say,

0:42:13.840 --> 0:42:18.719
<v Speaker 1>oh crap. When teams face they were all crap. This

0:42:18.760 --> 0:42:21.120
<v Speaker 1>is a problem right, the way that teams feel about

0:42:21.160 --> 0:42:23.200
<v Speaker 1>us on offense right now, right, you're not that feeling

0:42:23.200 --> 0:42:24.600
<v Speaker 1>when we step out there when we have gall up

0:42:24.680 --> 0:42:27.080
<v Speaker 1>and everybody out there, there's like, oh, we can't stop it.

0:42:27.320 --> 0:42:29.040
<v Speaker 1>Right at this point, we're playing ben, but don't break

0:42:29.040 --> 0:42:31.080
<v Speaker 1>because we just can't stop these guys. That's the offense

0:42:31.120 --> 0:42:33.319
<v Speaker 1>we have. That's offense that Kansas City had prior to

0:42:33.360 --> 0:42:37.080
<v Speaker 1>these first seven games, right, um, And that that fear

0:42:37.160 --> 0:42:40.520
<v Speaker 1>that teams have. You want that same fear when they

0:42:40.560 --> 0:42:42.919
<v Speaker 1>have the ball on offense. You want that same fear.

0:42:43.000 --> 0:42:45.279
<v Speaker 1>And I think we're in a position to to have that.

0:42:45.320 --> 0:42:49.000
<v Speaker 1>We have very competitive, flying or fast defense. These guys

0:42:49.040 --> 0:42:51.040
<v Speaker 1>are doing so much better than what we've had. We

0:42:51.160 --> 0:42:53.880
<v Speaker 1>have an ability for our defense, our whole defense, not

0:42:53.920 --> 0:42:56.920
<v Speaker 1>just one player, our entire defense to be feared. And

0:42:56.960 --> 0:42:59.759
<v Speaker 1>I think I would, if I was a gym, capitalize

0:42:59.760 --> 0:43:03.280
<v Speaker 1>on this opportunity. And I love everything that you guys

0:43:03.320 --> 0:43:05.879
<v Speaker 1>just said. And when I think about where we are

0:43:06.000 --> 0:43:11.400
<v Speaker 1>right now, the saying success leads clues, failure obviously speaks louder.

0:43:12.440 --> 0:43:15.359
<v Speaker 1>And you don't see teams that have been successful over

0:43:15.400 --> 0:43:18.279
<v Speaker 1>the long period of time making those last minute try.

0:43:18.239 --> 0:43:21.640
<v Speaker 1>I have never seen New England do such a thing.

0:43:21.960 --> 0:43:24.640
<v Speaker 1>And you may have more insight on that than I do,

0:43:24.680 --> 0:43:26.960
<v Speaker 1>because I just don't remember them ever saying mid season,

0:43:27.040 --> 0:43:29.200
<v Speaker 1>make this trade for this guy when you have a

0:43:29.760 --> 0:43:32.960
<v Speaker 1>when you have when Stephen Jones and Will McClay have

0:43:33.000 --> 0:43:36.759
<v Speaker 1>done that wonderful job of building the roster, and right now,

0:43:36.880 --> 0:43:39.640
<v Speaker 1>even when you search around the league, you may have

0:43:39.840 --> 0:43:43.640
<v Speaker 1>exactly what you think you're missing on your team. Still

0:43:43.640 --> 0:43:48.000
<v Speaker 1>haven't seen Kelvin Joseph all right, and again real time action,

0:43:48.080 --> 0:43:50.080
<v Speaker 1>we hadn't seen him. But he may be the piece

0:43:50.360 --> 0:43:53.680
<v Speaker 1>that you're talking about of having that dominant dB on

0:43:53.719 --> 0:43:55.840
<v Speaker 1>the other side of Trey Von. This we just don't know.

0:43:55.880 --> 0:43:58.319
<v Speaker 1>It's the great unknown, all right. We still haven't got

0:43:58.360 --> 0:44:01.560
<v Speaker 1>tanked back. So if we have Tank in that same

0:44:01.680 --> 0:44:05.080
<v Speaker 1>rotation with our defensive lineup, that changes the way that

0:44:05.320 --> 0:44:07.800
<v Speaker 1>quarterbacks are having to get back there and look because

0:44:07.960 --> 0:44:11.200
<v Speaker 1>hey boy, ninety is coming and ninety four is coming

0:44:11.239 --> 0:44:13.480
<v Speaker 1>and you have Michael barreling down on you as well.

0:44:13.560 --> 0:44:16.920
<v Speaker 1>So again, I just feel as though from a team aspect,

0:44:16.960 --> 0:44:19.879
<v Speaker 1>this team has been built up the right way. And

0:44:19.920 --> 0:44:23.239
<v Speaker 1>if you feel like you're close to getting your your

0:44:23.239 --> 0:44:25.839
<v Speaker 1>team is built up so well and you're getting close

0:44:25.880 --> 0:44:28.239
<v Speaker 1>to say, hey man, we are we should legitimate super

0:44:28.280 --> 0:44:31.200
<v Speaker 1>Bowl contenders. That's because your front office has done everything

0:44:31.239 --> 0:44:34.560
<v Speaker 1>the right way blue drafting. So I mean I don't

0:44:34.600 --> 0:44:37.319
<v Speaker 1>disagree that if you have an opportunity to go out there,

0:44:37.360 --> 0:44:39.680
<v Speaker 1>because of the equity that you have and all everything

0:44:39.719 --> 0:44:42.399
<v Speaker 1>that you alluded to yesterday, why not do it if

0:44:42.440 --> 0:44:44.440
<v Speaker 1>you can, if you can, if you can do it.

0:44:44.680 --> 0:44:46.759
<v Speaker 1>But I just feel like this team is right right

0:44:46.760 --> 0:44:48.920
<v Speaker 1>now and everything that you may be missing may be

0:44:49.080 --> 0:44:52.279
<v Speaker 1>on ir and ready to come back. The only I

0:44:52.320 --> 0:44:56.960
<v Speaker 1>guess instances I can think of of having the top

0:44:57.160 --> 0:44:59.560
<v Speaker 1>end teams going to the Super Bowl the last couple

0:44:59.560 --> 0:45:02.000
<v Speaker 1>of years making trades to try and make it happen,

0:45:02.040 --> 0:45:04.120
<v Speaker 1>because you're right, it doesn't happen a lot. Kansas City

0:45:04.120 --> 0:45:06.040
<v Speaker 1>hasn't done it in each of the last two years,

0:45:06.200 --> 0:45:09.680
<v Speaker 1>at least made a deadline esque type deal. Tampa Bay

0:45:09.680 --> 0:45:12.480
<v Speaker 1>made a decent one yes or last year, traded a

0:45:12.520 --> 0:45:16.120
<v Speaker 1>sixth round pick to the Jets for Steve mcclindon, that

0:45:16.280 --> 0:45:19.319
<v Speaker 1>nose tackle who actually played a decent role in their run.

0:45:20.239 --> 0:45:22.840
<v Speaker 1>That the rest of what they did was basically signing

0:45:23.560 --> 0:45:27.640
<v Speaker 1>It was not even off season, but just Antonio Brown here,

0:45:28.160 --> 0:45:30.520
<v Speaker 1>Leonard Fournette there. I mean, they made some of those

0:45:30.560 --> 0:45:33.120
<v Speaker 1>moves throughout the year that kind of got him to

0:45:33.320 --> 0:45:35.600
<v Speaker 1>that point. But you're right, doesn't happen a whole lot.

0:45:35.640 --> 0:45:38.080
<v Speaker 1>It's not like baseball where you see guys just going

0:45:38.080 --> 0:45:41.000
<v Speaker 1>out and trading everybody at the deadline and emptying the

0:45:41.040 --> 0:45:44.080
<v Speaker 1>farm system, emptying their depth to try and go get

0:45:44.080 --> 0:45:46.320
<v Speaker 1>a guy. It doesn't happen as much in the NFL,

0:45:46.480 --> 0:45:49.840
<v Speaker 1>but the Cowboys have seen it happen to their success

0:45:49.880 --> 0:45:52.279
<v Speaker 1>in the past, So Cowboys fans are certainly going to

0:45:52.320 --> 0:45:53.960
<v Speaker 1>rely on that. When they've done it, it's kind of

0:45:53.960 --> 0:45:57.200
<v Speaker 1>been out of desperation, like they've made in season trades,

0:45:57.280 --> 0:45:59.840
<v Speaker 1>but it was, you know, they they were struggling on defense.

0:46:00.000 --> 0:46:02.719
<v Speaker 1>They get Michael Bennett, they don't have a number one

0:46:02.719 --> 0:46:05.719
<v Speaker 1>wide receiver, so they go get Amari Cooper. H Romo

0:46:05.800 --> 0:46:09.520
<v Speaker 1>gets hurt, so they get Matt Castle so and that

0:46:09.560 --> 0:46:13.000
<v Speaker 1>didn't work out. But I'm just saying, like they haven't.

0:46:13.040 --> 0:46:15.359
<v Speaker 1>They haven't done that to your point, it doesn't mean

0:46:15.360 --> 0:46:17.840
<v Speaker 1>they shouldn't. If something comes up that that that fits on,

0:46:18.200 --> 0:46:21.839
<v Speaker 1>you know, would you guys, okay, so make a move

0:46:21.960 --> 0:46:25.000
<v Speaker 1>or sit still? Go sit still? I'm making a move.

0:46:25.880 --> 0:46:27.839
<v Speaker 1>Sit still. I think I would sit still as well.

0:46:28.400 --> 0:46:30.879
<v Speaker 1>I like it, though it depends on what's out there.

0:46:31.760 --> 0:46:34.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna I'm gonna take it. If there's a position,

0:46:34.880 --> 0:46:36.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to take it. If you tell me there

0:46:36.640 --> 0:46:38.960
<v Speaker 1>is a Pro Bowl corner and a Pro Bowl defense.

0:46:39.000 --> 0:46:41.000
<v Speaker 1>That's what he's talking. That's exactly what he's talking. And

0:46:41.040 --> 0:46:44.000
<v Speaker 1>you can get him for nothing. I'm not saying nothing.

0:46:44.000 --> 0:46:46.120
<v Speaker 1>Oh I'm saying I'm saying nothing. I'm saying, what what

0:46:46.200 --> 0:46:48.680
<v Speaker 1>are you going after this year? Super Bowl? Super Bowl?

0:46:48.680 --> 0:46:51.000
<v Speaker 1>Super Bowl? Sure you have it. So let's let's talk

0:46:51.040 --> 0:46:53.799
<v Speaker 1>about the cornerback position. Right. We have to have two

0:46:53.800 --> 0:46:56.640
<v Speaker 1>cornerbacks that we're paying ten million dollars to collectively. Right,

0:46:56.680 --> 0:46:58.760
<v Speaker 1>we have another cornerback. We have another couple of cornerbacks

0:46:58.760 --> 0:47:00.800
<v Speaker 1>that we drafted. Right, they are gonna be waiting in

0:47:00.840 --> 0:47:03.839
<v Speaker 1>the wings. Right, So those guys, the reality is those

0:47:03.880 --> 0:47:06.440
<v Speaker 1>guys aren't ready, Right, one of them isn't ready. One

0:47:06.440 --> 0:47:08.640
<v Speaker 1>of them we don't know yet. Um, so those guys

0:47:08.640 --> 0:47:10.680
<v Speaker 1>aren't ready to make a huge impact on this team

0:47:10.760 --> 0:47:13.520
<v Speaker 1>this year for this year's run. Right, they're there. They

0:47:13.520 --> 0:47:15.759
<v Speaker 1>can add to what you got, but more sol and

0:47:15.800 --> 0:47:18.240
<v Speaker 1>special teams and all that. If you have an opportunity

0:47:18.440 --> 0:47:21.520
<v Speaker 1>to go, get you a complete dog and put him

0:47:21.560 --> 0:47:23.680
<v Speaker 1>across from them from Diggs you're saying that you wouldn't

0:47:23.680 --> 0:47:26.520
<v Speaker 1>do that for one year, but I would. But I

0:47:26.560 --> 0:47:28.359
<v Speaker 1>don't want to give up a ton to get him. No,

0:47:28.360 --> 0:47:29.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying the time. I'm not saying the time,

0:47:29.840 --> 0:47:31.759
<v Speaker 1>but we have excess that we're not going to be

0:47:31.800 --> 0:47:35.160
<v Speaker 1>able to retain all of No I and I've and

0:47:35.160 --> 0:47:37.680
<v Speaker 1>I've even said that I agree with you to that

0:47:37.800 --> 0:47:40.360
<v Speaker 1>degree that because of what you have and you're so

0:47:40.600 --> 0:47:43.080
<v Speaker 1>you have so much depth and positions, it would behoove

0:47:43.200 --> 0:47:45.319
<v Speaker 1>you if you if that's there for you to take

0:47:45.320 --> 0:47:47.799
<v Speaker 1>advantage of it. I'm just saying that right now, Hell,

0:47:47.880 --> 0:47:52.279
<v Speaker 1>you got everything. It feels good. It feel good. You

0:47:52.320 --> 0:47:54.000
<v Speaker 1>know what I like to I like to know even

0:47:54.040 --> 0:47:55.399
<v Speaker 1>though I got a half ten game and I got

0:47:55.400 --> 0:47:56.759
<v Speaker 1>three quarters of a ten, if I'm about to hit

0:47:56.760 --> 0:47:58.440
<v Speaker 1>a road trade, guess where I'm going. I'm going to

0:47:58.480 --> 0:48:00.959
<v Speaker 1>the gas station. First gas station, but I'm wanted to gas.

0:48:01.280 --> 0:48:02.799
<v Speaker 1>I know I can get there on three quarters, But

0:48:02.840 --> 0:48:04.960
<v Speaker 1>guess what if I can go on four tank? Why not?

0:48:05.440 --> 0:48:10.640
<v Speaker 1>Says the man with an electric car. Oh, that's a

0:48:10.680 --> 0:48:13.520
<v Speaker 1>great play. That's it for us here, I'm talking Cowboys,

0:48:13.560 --> 0:48:16.720
<v Speaker 1>for Chris being Rob Phillips, Isaiah standback. Heck my Harrison.

0:48:16.920 --> 0:48:19.479
<v Speaker 1>I'm Kyle Yelmons. We'll see you tomorrow nine an thanks
