Um, 40 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:21,919 Speaker 1: let's talk about a former teammate. UM. Jason Wit has retired. 41 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: He played this year with the Las Vegas Raiders, decided 42 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 1: to retire for a second time. Where do you guys 43 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: rank with all time when it comes to NFL tight ends? Man, 44 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:38,919 Speaker 1: go ahead, d mack Uh listen, when you talk about 45 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 1: all times, first of all all time Cowboys tight ends, 46 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 1: I'm putting him in number one when you talk about 47 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:50,079 Speaker 1: all time tight ends. As far as consistency, I'll put 48 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 1: him in number one. He isn't the most talented. He 49 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 1: isn't He isn't the most talented tight end that we've 50 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 1: ever seen play. You know, He's not like a grum 51 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: maybe a m some of the guys who can go 52 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 1: up and make those big time catches kind of like 53 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 1: Kelsey and get it play like receiver. But as far 54 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 1: as him being in the right place and always being 55 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 1: able to get open and maximizing his skill set, I 56 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 1: think he's done that better than almost any tight end 57 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 1: in history. He's I think he's leading in receptions. He 58 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: played with thirteen fourteen years. Uh. I'm not sure how 59 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: many games he missed, but it's not many. So he 60 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: is the model for consistency. So I'll put him at 61 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:29,920 Speaker 1: the top as far as that. It's a few guys 62 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: ahead of him stat wise and talent wise, but he 63 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: ranks up there among among the top. Does he crack 64 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 1: the top five all time? For you? Of the tight 65 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 1: ends that I know I was, I was giving me 66 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 1: crazy cracks the top five. Okay, and listen, listen that 67 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: that that's not including grong that like the guys who 68 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: are still playing. I'm talking about guys who are no 69 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: longer playing sas he's going to be a retired guy. Now, okay, 70 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: all right, since since you could have liked that way, 71 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: I see where you're coming from there. For me, like 72 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: you said, man, if we put them at the Cowboys list, 73 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: if we're saying like this is, you know, the all 74 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 1: time greatest, not even just tight end, just a Cowboy 75 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: player in general, I would definitely put him at the 76 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: number one at that spot. I mean, his intangibles on 77 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 1: the field and off the field were legendary. I mean, 78 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: he's one of the greatest leaders I think I've ever 79 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: been around. And d Mac, I mean, I can't speak 80 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: for you, but I mean this guy leadership off the 81 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 1: field was immaculate. And his play on the field was 82 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: immaculate as well. And like you said, d Mac, he 83 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:29,840 Speaker 1: was able to get the most out of his skill 84 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 1: set because he wasn't the fastest guy. He didn't run 85 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: the craziest routes, and he didn't get much separation from guys, 86 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 1: but he was able to come down with the ball 87 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 1: and he did it consistently. So in that regard, I 88 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,280 Speaker 1: will put him number one when it comes to consistency 89 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: and just being a Dallas Cowboy player. Now, overall, with 90 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: all those tight ends out there, I mean you're talking 91 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: about the Kellen Winslows of the world, the Shannon Sharps 92 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: of the world. I mean I would put Gronk in 93 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 1: my top five as well. But overall, it's hard for 94 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: me to put him in that five. Man, it's hard 95 00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: for me to do that. But when it comes to 96 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: consist to see and being that leader that he was, 97 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 1: he's an all time great and he will be a 98 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 1: first ballot Hall of Famer. But top five is kind 99 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 1: of tough for me to do that just seeing all 100 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 1: the skill sets in the talent that other tight ends 101 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: had out there. But like I said before, mydet consistency, 102 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 1: he will be a first ballot Hall of Fame. Hey, Grom, 103 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: don't count man, he's still playing. He's still playing because 104 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: he was retiring hot but but but but he's but 105 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,359 Speaker 1: he's back. In that case, you got to put Kelc 106 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,280 Speaker 1: in there and uh In Kittle and all these guys 107 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: who that we assume are going to be great. Guy, 108 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 1: he's still playing. Once he retired, I probably put him 109 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: over with Jason Woodn't as far as the impact that 110 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: he was able to make on his team. But yeah, 111 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 1: he's still going. He's about to give him another Super 112 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 1: Bowl possibly, So I'm an hold off on that one. 113 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 1: Let me ask y'all both a quick question, real quick. 114 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: Do y'all think the move to Oakland put any type 115 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 1: of stain on his career or do you think it 116 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: just you know, he just tried to go front of 117 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:57,600 Speaker 1: the ship and it just didn't work out that way. Well, 118 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: I don't year in the year in Vegas, um didn't 119 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: do anything at all in my opinion. Um, he was 120 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 1: already a legendary. You're talking about eleven time Pro Bowls 121 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 1: before he ever got there, All Pro first or second team, 122 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: five times number two all time and receptions number two 123 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: for a tight end number five all time and tight 124 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:22,600 Speaker 1: ends uh touchdown lots. So I don't think it did 125 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 1: that at all. The Hall of Fame is littered with 126 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:30,239 Speaker 1: guys who spent one or two years in a place 127 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,359 Speaker 1: that you know, at the end of their career you're like, 128 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: oh yeah, honestly, I think you're gonna forget it. No, 129 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: do you remember Jerry Rice playing for the Raiders, the 130 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 1: Raiders or Seattle. Do you remember Doris Set with Denver 131 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: or Emmet in Arizona, Um, Johnny and idis and with 132 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: the Chargers, or Joe Nameeth with the Rams, So you 133 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 1: know this is you know, you know Ronny a lot 134 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,799 Speaker 1: with the Jets. So I think that that's that's that's 135 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,719 Speaker 1: no big deal at all. Um. Shannon Sharp is a 136 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 1: guy we didn't bring up here when we talk about 137 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: just you know, great tight ends of all time. And 138 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:08,039 Speaker 1: Shannon played on three Super Bowl winners. And when I 139 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: think about the last team he played on, that Ravens 140 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 1: team where they had no wide receiver weapons that were 141 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: any good, it was basically the Shannon Sharp show. So 142 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: when I think about Shannon in his career, he was legendary. 143 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 1: I think Jason, first off, there's only eight tight end. 144 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys knows, there's only eight 145 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: tight ends in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. I 146 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: mean just eight. When you think about yes, in the 147 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 1: National Football League and Jason is going to be Tony 148 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 1: Gonzalez is gonna go in, so you know, Tony and 149 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 1: Jason are gonna put that thing at ten. I anticipated 150 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 1: Antonio Gates getting there, so I look at it and 151 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 1: getting to two eleven guys. But the guys who were 152 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 1: in there special, John Mackie special tight end, Kellen Wimslow 153 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 1: special tight end. And when you talk about ranking them, 154 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,559 Speaker 1: it's an interesting deal because so many of these guys 155 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 1: are in there when they had running teams and Ozzie 156 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: knew some of Mike ditka Um. So when you're looking 157 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 1: this new wave of pass catching tight ends, Jason is 158 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: definitely in that new wave. And when you're talking about 159 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: a top five guy in a in a pass catching 160 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 1: mode and a hell of a career. And and look, 161 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 1: I've always felt this way that having been the camp 162 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: many times, and you guys have been up there as well. 163 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: Once you're in, baby, you're in. You know, once you're in, 164 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: you're in. And uh, he's gonna get his He's gonna 165 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: get his gold jacket, and deservingly so hell of a career, man, 166 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,679 Speaker 1: Just just you know, I took my hat towy Jason 167 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: Witten has done in his NFL career coming out of 168 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:39,079 Speaker 1: TENNESSEEE third round pick. Yeah, you're right. I mean he 169 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 1: basically the like you said, the consummate professional. I mean, 170 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 1: his leadership off the field was legendary. His on the 171 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 1: field performances were legendary. I still remember when I don't 172 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 1: even think it was in the league. Now, I wasn't 173 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 1: in the league at the time, but when he caught 174 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: that looked like a slant against Philadelphia, shoot defenders come 175 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 1: and merge on them. They both knocked down each other, 176 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 1: his helmet goes flying, and he's still runs for another 177 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 1: forty yards, and I think that that's the play. To me, 178 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 1: that pretty much just basically tells you all you need 179 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: to know about Jason Witten when it comes to the 180 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: football field. I mean, there's there's a guy that there's 181 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 1: no guy that worked harder than he did with his 182 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 1: skill set. And like you said, man, he'll be a 183 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:15,560 Speaker 1: first balllet Hall of Famer. He had a hell of 184 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 1: a career. Well, Church Church, you were there. I think 185 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: it was the preseason game where I think he like 186 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: he did something to his spleen and everybody just assumed 187 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: he wasn't gonna be able to play. We watched that 188 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: firsthand and it was like, it's no way, We're just 189 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,080 Speaker 1: gonna get out there and get this stuff done. And 190 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:33,199 Speaker 1: he was out there, so it's not it's not much 191 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 1: you can do to get this guy off the field. 192 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: And he went out there and he performed. And like 193 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: I said, one thing you knew about Winton when you 194 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 1: knew exactly what you were going to get when you 195 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 1: were out there on the field, and everybody else knew 196 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: what they were gonna get and they still couldn't stop it. 197 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: So I mean that that's just a testament to how 198 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: how he perfected his craft. You knew exactly what Roddy 199 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 1: was gonna run, you know, you just didn't know if 200 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 1: he's gonna break in out, And somehow the dude was 201 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 1: always open. So I mean, he he's a special player, 202 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 1: and he was a time. I would give him a 203 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 1: top ten trash talking rating like this dude, a lot 204 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,439 Speaker 1: of cats know it. I know it had to garden 205 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 1: and practice each and every every practice. I had to 206 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 1: guard him. But this dude subtly would just talk the 207 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: whole entire time. He would get open on. Maybe maybe 208 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: next time, kid, maybe they just subtle that. You just 209 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: be like, man, you know what, I hate this dude, 210 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: I hate, but he he just taught you so many 211 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,680 Speaker 1: lessons and just his trash talking was just as legendary 212 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 1: played on the field. Well, it'll be interesting to see 213 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: what he does in his post career. He will have 214 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: his Greater contract expire in March, and then he'll sign 215 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 1: a one day contract with the Dallas Cowboys and retire. 216 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: And well, i'd probably say the first step is is 217 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: Jerry will put him in the Ring of Honor, and 218 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 1: then after that, uh, you know, five years he'll be 219 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: he'll be in Canton for the Pro Football Hall of Fame. 220 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:06,439 Speaker 1: Another know, another Cowboy, remember going into into the Hall 221 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: of Fame. So that'll be that'll be, yes, will he'd 222 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 1: be the only Cowboy to return twice. I don't know 223 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 1: about I don't know. I mean at two tall Jones 224 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: did it twice? Remember he played and retired to go 225 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:31,079 Speaker 1: box and then came back. He went he went boxed again. Hey, 226 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 1: you know so so I remember that, and I remember 227 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: I remember how how mad many Cowboy fans were like, 228 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 1: you're gonna go do? What do you do? You know? 229 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:42,959 Speaker 1: You know, I was like, Okay, fine, you got the 230 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 1: reach over anybody, but you know you're not gonna be 231 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 1: You're not gonna go out here beat Larry Holmes. I mean, 232 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: what are you doing? Um? And then he came back 233 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 1: and and you know when Ed retired, this is at 234 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 1: that height where the Cowboys were in the mix for 235 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 1: you know, the Super Bowl year in year out under 236 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 1: coach Lantry here in the late seventies and in early eighties. 237 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 1: So that was that, That was that infuriated many a 238 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 1: Cowboy fan, like what in the world are you doing? 239 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: And you guys have played at the ultimate level, and 240 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: it is hard at any sport to get to that 241 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 1: ultimate level. And that was the thing about me about boxing, 242 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:23,199 Speaker 1: and when I heard about dude, do you know how 243 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 1: hard this is? This is hard to become a top 244 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: flight heavyweight boxing contender. But yeah, he did it. But 245 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: a good question. But that's the only way I can 246 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 1: think of speak Hey, listen, side, no speaking of that. 247 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 1: Let me tell you every the boxing game, the fighting game. 248 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 1: If your head is not in it, and you hadn't 249 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,199 Speaker 1: been practicing your entire life, or you took some time off. 250 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 1: Take a look at the fight that happened on Saturday 251 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,680 Speaker 1: with Connor McGregor. Came out there half stepping, and you 252 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 1: will see how hard it is to really get your 253 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 1: mind in the game. My man went out there and 254 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 1: got knocked out. He ain't been since since Mayweather put 255 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 1: them hands on him, and he had and he got 256 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 1: one hundred million dollars you got. You gotta have your 257 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,839 Speaker 1: mind right, man. That is a very very tough thing 258 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:11,960 Speaker 1: to do. And uh, you know, shout out the air. 259 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 1: But I would give Greg Hardy some some props on 260 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 1: that because he's been able to transition from pro football 261 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 1: player one of the best dents to play for for 262 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: for his time and then uh transferred to UFC fight 263 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 1: now actually getting some wins, doing some good stuff out there. Well, 264 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 1: it reminds me of a movie and you guys were 265 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: not even born when it came out in nineteen eighty three, 266 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 1: Rocky three. And in that movie they consistently talk about 267 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: the eye of the Tiger, and um, Rocky's trainer Micky said, 268 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 1: you know you ain't you ain't been the same since 269 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 1: you won that belt. And what he talked about was 270 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 1: at the time, Hey Rock, you got paid, you're famous. Um, 271 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 1: you don't have that same hunger. And Connor McGregor going 272 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 1: in the ring, how can you be the same after 273 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 1: you put one hundred million dollars in your pocket and 274 00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 1: you set me to life? Right hold on Floyd? No, no, no, no, Listen, 275 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: there's a perfect example of the guy who did that 276 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:07,959 Speaker 1: end and out. As much as new he wanted to 277 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:12,200 Speaker 1: hate on the guy. Mayweather consistently made that type of 278 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 1: money and went out there and performed to the best 279 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: of his ability and will be going down as one 280 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 1: of the top powerful pound fighters to ever get in 281 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:28,200 Speaker 1: the ring. Floyd was picked out choosing, he choosing and fights. Man, 282 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 1: I don't know about that man. So so so Connor 283 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: McGregor didn't pick poor head. I mean, poor ya was 284 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: gonna come up to it. And Connor went out there 285 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 1: and he got them hands put on him. Yeah, he 286 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: had already beat him up, so he assumed he was 287 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 1: gonna do the same thing. Connorm We're gonna pick that fight. 288 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 1: Connor ms there, gonna also pick Mayweather too. He called 289 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 1: him out. He went out there and said I'm gonna 290 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: beat up Maywell. So listen, y'all want to take stuff 291 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 1: away from that dude. Man, he may he may consistent 292 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 1: money and he go out there and perform and when 293 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: has never lost a boxing match, Danny, I'm gonna give 294 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: you one word to describe Floyd Maywether. It sums up 295 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 1: this whole argument. Outlier. You know, in everything in life, 296 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: there's going to be an outlier, a person who just 297 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 1: put right right. There's there's an outlier. You know that 298 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 1: your Kareem abdul Jabbar, this dude was an outlier. So 299 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 1: so in every walk of life, there's going to be 300 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: one person who's a heck of a lot different than 301 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 1: the others. And that's what Floyd was in his career. 302 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 1: So so when we talk about that eye of the tiger, hey, 303 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: most people are going to be like Connor McGregor, Hey, man, 304 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: I made all this money, I'm not the same and 305 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 1: you you know, and to me, in a sport like 306 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 1: that where you got will you put your body on 307 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 1: the line physically once you've made it and got paid, Yeah, 308 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 1: I think it is hard to keep getting up and 309 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 1: doing it. But for Floyd Mayweather outlier man. He was 310 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: just gonna put that dude in a different category. But 311 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 1: most regular, most regular mortals at that position, they're gonna 312 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: fall into that trap. I mean, looking at Mike Tyson, 313 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: you know, as great as Tyson. You know Tyson Tyson 314 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 1: fell into that and had so much going on in 315 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 1: his world, and that's that's a tough thing to keep 316 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 1: winning and have that hunger to to to put your 317 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 1: body in your mind at that level. And for Floyd 318 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 1: did Man, I have mad respect for it as an outlock. 319 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 1: I mean, look, look at look when it comes to football. 320 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: I mean, how many cats we've seen get their start, 321 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: you know, on special teams and they're grind and they're 322 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 1: they're gunners, they're you know, they're blocking, they're doing all that, 323 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 1: and then they get a little break on defense and offense, 324 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: maybe get a little change in their pocket, and then 325 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 1: the coach says, hey, we need you to beat this gunner, 326 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 1: we need you to be this safety on kickoff, and 327 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: they're just like, ah, I like that out there. Don't 328 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 1: you say it like you say it? I don't know 329 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 1: who he's a butt? I have seen it with that before. 330 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: What number?

All right, guys, Deshaun 384 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 1: Watson says, I want out of Houston. Matthew Stafford's told 385 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 1: the lines, Hey, thanks, but I'm done with you, so 386 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 1: you know how Cowboy fans are you know how cowboy 387 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,360 Speaker 1: Twitter goes in social media? There have people who've been 388 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:42,160 Speaker 1: asking about these quarterbacks. Let's start with Matthew Stafford first, 389 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 1: Danny McCray, if you're the Cowboys, do you have any 390 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 1: interest because right now your quarterback, Dak Prescott is a 391 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,880 Speaker 1: free agent who you could franchise for one more year. 392 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:53,880 Speaker 1: But after this year, if you don't get a deal done, 393 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: there's no way you can franchise in four third. Your 394 00:20:56,040 --> 00:21:01,679 Speaker 1: thoughts on Matthews absolutely not. Matt Matthew. You know it's 395 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 1: as good as I believe. Matthew Stafford is one. I 396 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 1: really do love Dak being here as all quarterback, the 397 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 1: leader it is, and the stuff that I've seen him 398 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 1: doing the field. But more importantly, Matthew Stafford has been injured. 399 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:19,480 Speaker 1: I think he breaks hands, backs, legs, all types of stuff. Man. 400 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 1: And once you bring a guy in who you can't 401 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 1: depend on to play a full season, then then you're 402 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 1: you're you're asking for trouble. So with the injuries that 403 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: he had, and it looked like it's kind of similar 404 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 1: to what Romo was dealing with at the end of 405 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 1: his career, I wouldn't take a risk on him. He's 406 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 1: a he's a head of a player. But I think 407 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 1: the quarterback that we have now is a solution for 408 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 1: us to get to a super Bowl. Yeah, right now, 409 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 1: Before before I get into this, I preface it by saying, look, 410 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:51,880 Speaker 1: I think Dak Prescott is a much better quarterback than 411 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford. But in saying that, I was if I'm 412 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,679 Speaker 1: the Dolls Cowboys, I would still do my homework on it. 413 00:21:57,760 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 1: I would still go to ask to you know, Detroit Line. 414 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 1: You know, what are they what are they thinking? What 415 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: are the trade possibilities for us at Matthew Stafford? And 416 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,439 Speaker 1: if it doesn't break the bank, and if it doesn't 417 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 1: anything outrageous or outlandish. I mean, you go to Dak 418 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 1: Prescott and you say, hey, would you would you mind 419 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 1: taking this five year deal? If not, I mean, hey, 420 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 1: it's there's a lot worse scenarios than having Matthews quarterback 421 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,680 Speaker 1: back there, all right. I mean we've seen it last year. 422 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 1: We've seen it last year with the Red Pistol. So 423 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 1: for me, I'm not saying I'd rather have Stafford. I'm 424 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 1: not saying that at all. I'd rather have Dak Prescott. 425 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,360 Speaker 1: But to me, I think you do your homework on it, 426 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 1: and you see what possibilities are out there for you. 427 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 1: It wouldn't hurt because you do not have Dak Prescott 428 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,439 Speaker 1: under contract right now. You don't Your quarterback right now 429 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,439 Speaker 1: is Garrett Gilberty. So for me, I'm doing my homework 430 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 1: on matt Stafford. He has a lot of injuries, he 431 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 1: has it won a lot in Detroit, but I don't 432 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 1: think that's totally his fault. So for me, I'm doing 433 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:54,439 Speaker 1: my homework on it just to see what can happen. Man, listen, 434 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: you're away from Justin Fields to Matthew Stafford getting the 435 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 1: gas whatever I mean, gene whatever you can do to 436 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 1: get rid of Dak Prescott, even though you don't even listen, 437 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,959 Speaker 1: even even though even though you believe that he is 438 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:10,360 Speaker 1: he is a good quarterback and he could really take 439 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 1: us to the super Bowl. If he didn't cost as much, 440 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 1: then it will be okay. But you're doing anything you 441 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 1: can to say anything cheaper, anything cheaper than Dak Prescott, 442 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 1: even if it's Justin Fields or Joe. Matthew Stafford is 443 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: better for the Cowboys, so they can get some defensive 444 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 1: pieces and be okay on offense, and uh and probably 445 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: good on defense, and you know, you still don't know 446 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:33,880 Speaker 1: exactly what they're gonna be no matter what player they get. 447 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 1: But hey, whatever, whatever, I like you back man, come on, 448 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:43,359 Speaker 1: back man. Go So so, Barry, Barry, I want to 449 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 1: come in and ask you this here. Okay, are they 450 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,639 Speaker 1: are not just they're going to want a draft pick? 451 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,400 Speaker 1: So are you willing to give up the tenth overall 452 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 1: pick in the draft for Matthew? Okay? Then no? Not okay? 453 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 1: So so what do you get being up to go 454 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 1: get the quarterback because they're asking for a one. Well, 455 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 1: if they're asking for a one, they're out of their mind. 456 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 1: I mean, little Matt Stafford's eleven years in the league's 457 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 1: coming off of multiple surgeries, he hasn't completed a full 458 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 1: season and who knows how long. So for them to 459 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 1: ask for an I mean, that's that's out of podcast question. 460 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,640 Speaker 1: That ain't even don't even put that. But if they 461 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 1: come saying, look we'll take you know, a second and 462 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:27,200 Speaker 1: a third for Stafford, I do it? Man, Church, Church, 463 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 1: Can you can you make that?

He has a lot more weapons 471 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:52,399 Speaker 1: on our side than what he had in Detroit, and 472 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,120 Speaker 1: I think he could play a little bit better. He's 473 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 1: a solution. I'm not sing tarisim gonna be on the 474 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 1: sideline together?

We're happening, we're 482 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:29,680 Speaker 1: having a little college we're happening to t first time 483 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:32,479 Speaker 1: and it was an injury buzz throughout the whole dousand 484 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 1: church organization happening again next church. Collins didn't even step 485 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 1: on the field one time. For the first time since 486 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 1: he's been drafted. He'll have it. He'll be back. He'll 487 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:47,480 Speaker 1: be back. So so Church, here here's the thing. You 488 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 1: may not value Matthew Stafford and trading a number one, 489 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 1: but they are going to get that from someone in 490 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: this league that they just thought. Way. Look, there's no 491 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:02,640 Speaker 1: way if you are the Chicago Bears, if you are 492 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Colts, a number one pick for Matthew Stafford 493 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 1: versus what else you are looking at in free agency 494 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 1: is going to be an upgrade. I mean, it just is. 495 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:16,639 Speaker 1: There's plenty of teams out. I mean, if you're the 496 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,879 Speaker 1: New England Patriots right now, you know Matthew Stafford is 497 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 1: an upgrade over what you have. So giving up a 498 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 1: number one pick for a quarterback, and if you're trying 499 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,399 Speaker 1: to especially if you're in a win now mode, if 500 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:30,199 Speaker 1: you're a matt Neeggie and you're trying to hold on 501 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:33,479 Speaker 1: to your job and secure a second contract, and you're 502 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 1: Ryan Pays the GM going and giving up your number 503 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 1: one for Matthew Stafford versus, hey, we're ready to run 504 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 1: it back with Nick Foles or Mittell Trubisky. You'll do that. 505 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 1: So while you may not value the ten. There are 506 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 1: going to be other people that value the ten. So 507 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:53,160 Speaker 1: I'm just in in this league of quarterback play now. 508 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 1: I am with Danny on this one all day long. 509 00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 1: Oh right, I'm Church Church, Sorry, you buy yourself on 510 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:08,120 Speaker 1: you know. You know, I look at Matt Stafford and 511 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: here's a man who's been in this league since two 512 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 1: thousand and nine. He's made one Pro Bowl. That was 513 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 1: in twenty fourteen when they went eleven and five and 514 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 1: I ended up getting beaten by the Cowboys. So but 515 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 1: he's made the Pro Bowl one time. And I started 516 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 1: looking out at this list of guys who's made the 517 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,119 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl during you know, during this time. He Mitchell 518 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:26,360 Speaker 1: Trubisky made a Pro Bowl, Jamis made a Pro Bowl, 519 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 1: Marcus Mariota made a Pro Bowl, Kirk Cousins made the 520 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,159 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl twice, Nick Foles made the Pro Bowl, Carson 521 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,680 Speaker 1: Wentz made you know, Andy Dalton made it three times. 522 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,679 Speaker 1: This guy only made it once. And yes, we know 523 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 1: the Lions had their issues and whatnot, but I just 524 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 1: I just think that the time the Cowboys should have 525 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 1: gone for trying to get hi Matt Stafford was was 526 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,119 Speaker 1: was years ago. It was really toward the end of 527 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 1: the Romo run. I just think that Stafford is not 528 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:57,520 Speaker 1: what they need to mean, the Colts seemed like a 529 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:01,680 Speaker 1: really good fit for Matthew sta. Their offensive line right 530 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 1: now is a better offensive line than the Cowboys, and 531 00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 1: he wants to throw it down the field. I think 532 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,639 Speaker 1: Frank Wright could accommodate him and give him what he wants, 533 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 1: But I just don't see him as a fit in Dallas. 534 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:15,119 Speaker 1: So let's go to the other quarterback that people have 535 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 1: been talking about here, Deshaun Watson. He's told the Houston 536 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 1: Texans he wants out. He signed a contract last year 537 00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 1: basically making forty million dollars a year. Um, yeah, your 538 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 1: thoughts there are people want to connect into the Cowboys. 539 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,479 Speaker 1: Would you entertain or have a discussion about that. If 540 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 1: you're Jerry Stephen Jones and Will McClay mccraig, listen, I'm 541 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:44,239 Speaker 1: still high on deck Man. I like Deshaun Watson him, 542 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 1: but the intangible, that the intensible that that that has 543 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 1: here in Dallas is his leadership and familiarity with the 544 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 1: with the players and the coaches that are here. The 545 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 1: city loves them, the team loves him. He is the 546 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 1: leader of the locker room, and when you get rid 547 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 1: of him for DeShawn Watson, what you switch out is 548 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 1: a brand new guy who has to now get familiar 549 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 1: where everybody does here. Not saying that he can't do it, 550 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,480 Speaker 1: but this is pretty much turn key. You're still gonna 551 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 1: be paying the guy forty million dollars. I mean it's 552 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 1: the same thing you're gonna be paying Dak anyway. So 553 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 1: you may ever will keep this guy and let him 554 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 1: prove what he can do. Once you fix up you, 555 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 1: once you fix up the defense and show up the 556 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 1: offensive line to get that running game get back going. 557 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 1: Dak is the guy who can take you to the 558 00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 1: super Bowl. I think it's too close of a match 559 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,520 Speaker 1: for you to be trading out Deshaun Watson and Dak Prescott. 560 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 1: I would give Deshaun Watson now the slight edge, but 561 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 1: not enough for me to say, hey, Dak, you leave 562 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 1: DeShawn Watson this much better than you. So you you 563 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 1: telling me right now. If it was a one for 564 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:54,240 Speaker 1: one DeShawn for Dak, no questions asked, one for one trade, 565 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 1: you would not do that. If you were the Dallas 566 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:59,160 Speaker 1: cout Boys, I wouldn't do it. I wouldn't do it. 567 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 1: I wouldn't do it because listen, listen, DeShawn Watson had 568 00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:04,600 Speaker 1: a great year this year with with with with not 569 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 1: that much talents. We were saying that. We were saying 570 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 1: the same thing about Dak last year when they were 571 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: losing and he was running up the stats getting trash yards. 572 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 1: I mean so so, I mean the stats are crazy, 573 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 1: The stats are crazy. Dak Prescott is one of the playoffs, 574 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 1: just like uh, I think DeShawn Watson won the game 575 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: and they lost in Kansas City. Right last year they 576 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 1: beat they beat Buffalo and lost the case. Yeah, so 577 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:32,320 Speaker 1: listen that they both they both can win. But I'm 578 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 1: not trading out that. First of all, that'll make the 579 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 1: Joneses look horrible. You've been signing off on this guy 580 00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 1: saying how you gonna pay them and how much you 581 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 1: love them, and you would just look horrible to the 582 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: league and any other free agent that was gonna coming 583 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 1: here and say, hold on, this is the dude you 584 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 1: said you love. This is the guy you said you 585 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 1: had his back. He were out there and broke his 586 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 1: leg for y'all playing on the deal because y'all didn't 587 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 1: pay them two years ago. And then you gonna let 588 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 1: him go and bring in DeShawn Watson. And just imagine 589 00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott going somewhere to coming and beating the Cowboys 590 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 1: year in and year out after you let them go, 591 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:05,920 Speaker 1: after you trash them like that. That that'll just be horrible. 592 00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 1: And it ain't show friends, it's show business. If you're 593 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 1: telling me Deshaun Watson can't come in here and win 594 00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:18,120 Speaker 1: football game, It's is outrageous. The Cowboys fan base, they 595 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:20,959 Speaker 1: would four about one month, might might hate the Jones 596 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: and might hate the Cowboys organization, but once Deshaun Watson 597 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 1: came in here and start winning games, you would you 598 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 1: wouldn't even hear about that pobscot anymore. Look, I think 599 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 1: there's only maybe maybe maybe three teams in the National 600 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,480 Speaker 1: Football League that wouldn't make that deal right now. That's 601 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:43,560 Speaker 1: Kansas City, maybe maybe Green Bay with Aaron Rodgers, and 602 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:48,080 Speaker 1: maybe maybe Seattle with or Russell Wilson. Everybody else they 603 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 1: would make that trade in the heartbeat, and I'm sure 604 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys would do the same. What's what's second? 605 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 1: What's second? Movie? Hold on, way, how about to Deshaun 606 00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:59,240 Speaker 1: Watson getting paid? Because I gotta I gotta push back 607 00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 1: on the Church with the he's getting he's getting forty. 608 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 1: You don't want to pay back forty. You don't want 609 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 1: to pay back for he's gonna get forty two, forty three, 610 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 1: that's what the number. If Dak was getting forty, you 611 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 1: would already signed that contract. If you wanted forty thirty five. 612 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 1: We gotta look at the reports on that one year 613 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:25,960 Speaker 1: it was it was it was the thirty five. So 614 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: and it became it became about the number of years 615 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 1: Dak one or a four year deal. That's what these 616 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 1: quarterbacks are signing. They're signing four years. The Cowboys wanted five. 617 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:36,520 Speaker 1: The Church. I would just want to interject this. You 618 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 1: said one on one, Houston is not trade one Deshaun Watson, 619 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 1: Dak Watson, Yes, that I can understand that. I will 620 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 1: say hypothet right if it was one, would you okay, Well, 621 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 1: let me tell you what the hypothetical aint go bee 622 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,640 Speaker 1: us there. Houston is for a voteload. So it is 623 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 1: going to cost you act minimum Dak Prescott and your 624 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 1: tenth overall pit. That's the minimum them that you're going 625 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 1: to have to do to get into this. You would 626 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 1: do it, do it, I do it, man, so long 627 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 1: so you will so you so you want to go 628 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 1: in on defense as long as as long as you 629 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 1: can get rid of that. But if DeShawn Watson come 630 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,480 Speaker 1: share away that first pickle, you said, go pick a 631 00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 1: defensive player on and just have DeShawn Watson play. I'm 632 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 1: gonna be honest, I think that Shaan could do. You 633 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 1: can do what the Cowboys had than Dak Prescott. Oh defense, No, 634 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 1: I think he could. He could overcome a bad defense 635 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 1: more than Dak Prescott could. I think a historically bad 636 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,920 Speaker 1: I don't know anybody could overcame a historically bad defense. 637 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 1: But I got you many I think that I think 638 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 1: he could be. I think he's a better quarterback than that. 639 00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 1: To be honest with you, Um, we gotta take a 640 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 1: break here. We gotta take a break here. But when 641 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 1: when we return here to our s WBC Mortgage Virtual 642 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 1: Home Studios, I'm going to give you something that a 643 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:08,480 Speaker 1: trusted coach told me about Dak versus Deshaun Watson and 644 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:12,640 Speaker 1: the situation that the Cowboys are facing right now.

Whey Scots, a long time Cowboys reported 692 00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:09,600 Speaker 1: joined by a former Dallas Cowboys safeties Barry Church and 693 00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:12,359 Speaker 1: Danny mcray. So in the previous segment, Barry Church has 694 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:15,360 Speaker 1: let it be know he would trade Dak Prescott for 695 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson in a one on one on a one 696 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:20,920 Speaker 1: on one trade. I do not believe that's going to 697 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:24,319 Speaker 1: happen because the Houston Texans, by reports, are seeking at 698 00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 1: least three first round picks, and the Cowboys gonna have 699 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:28,400 Speaker 1: at the least give up their first round pick to 700 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 1: get in the conversation along with Dak Prescott, McCray is 701 00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 1: that of the opinion he wants Dak now. I talked 702 00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 1: to trusted friend of mine who's who's been in professional 703 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,359 Speaker 1: football for well over thirty years and I said, give 704 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 1: me your opinion on this. And first off, he said, 705 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:48,640 Speaker 1: he thought when you just asked he who's the better 706 00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 1: quarterback between Watson and Dak, he said he thought Watson 707 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:54,200 Speaker 1: was a better quarterback. But then he says, let's add 708 00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:55,840 Speaker 1: in the other things. You got to think about the 709 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:58,080 Speaker 1: cost of what it will take for you to get Watson. 710 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 1: He said he would keep Dak Scott. And then the 711 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 1: other thing he pointed out, he said, look, Dak Prescott 712 00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:06,480 Speaker 1: before he went down and even what he did last 713 00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:10,560 Speaker 1: year was doing things right there comparable to what Deshaun 714 00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:13,759 Speaker 1: Watson was able to do. So he thinks that Dak Prescott, 715 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:16,360 Speaker 1: while he's not as good at quarterback as Watson, he 716 00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:18,960 Speaker 1: thinks he's right there. He thinks he's a young, up 717 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,759 Speaker 1: and coming quarterback and he would not give up um 718 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:25,200 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott based on the other things you'd have to 719 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 1: give up. So that that that was his opinion on 720 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 1: on the two players. But I'm sorry, Church, You're going 721 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:36,360 Speaker 1: to have to give up more than just Dak Prescott. 722 00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:40,480 Speaker 1: You're going to have to give up your first round 723 00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:42,360 Speaker 1: pick at number ten. And oh, by the way, I 724 00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 1: guess what you're gonna have to sign Dak to a franchise, 725 00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:46,880 Speaker 1: you know, to the franchise tag, and then you know, 726 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:50,719 Speaker 1: then move him on the way. So, um, I just think, 727 00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:55,120 Speaker 1: um yeah, I just think that that's not you know, 728 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:57,160 Speaker 1: this is not gonna happen. First off, First off, let 729 00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:00,600 Speaker 1: me just say this. If I'm Houston, I'm called up Deshan, 730 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 1: I'm like, bro, you you here, you got a contract, 731 00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:05,839 Speaker 1: you're gonna be here. Yeah, let's work this out. What 732 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:09,080 Speaker 1: is it you need to do? I mean the nickname 733 00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 1: they gave cal mcnar down there. According to the Sports 734 00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:13,920 Speaker 1: Illustrated articles, Tommy Boy based off the movie because he 735 00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:16,480 Speaker 1: took over the family business and he don't know what 736 00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:18,759 Speaker 1: he's doing. So Tommy Boy needs to get in there 737 00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:23,400 Speaker 1: and tell Deshaun, short of me giving you profit sharing 738 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:27,719 Speaker 1: in the team, how can I help make this frantise? 739 00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:29,399 Speaker 1: You want to be back with it? I mean, because 740 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,640 Speaker 1: you've got to do something. But do you need to 741 00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:34,000 Speaker 1: add another year to the contract? Me? What is it 742 00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:36,960 Speaker 1: you have to do to make this guy happy? You 743 00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:40,399 Speaker 1: simply do not find guys like Deshaun Watson. I don't 744 00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:42,360 Speaker 1: care if they get three first round picks, You're not 745 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:45,720 Speaker 1: gonna find another guy like Deshaun wats. I got a question. 746 00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 1: Did he did Deshaun Watson sign that contract after they 747 00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:54,759 Speaker 1: got rid of DeAndre Hopkins? Yes, okay, So that's the 748 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:57,440 Speaker 1: thing I got. The problem I got with this whole Deshaun, 749 00:39:57,960 --> 00:39:59,799 Speaker 1: you know, wanting out and all this other stuff. He 750 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:03,960 Speaker 1: there was problems existing in that organization before he signed 751 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:09,200 Speaker 1: the contract. So so I mean, I want out, I 752 00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:10,840 Speaker 1: want this, I want that, I want it. But and 753 00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:12,400 Speaker 1: then you go ahead and sign the contract if you 754 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:14,560 Speaker 1: wanted to get out and everything was wrong in the beginning, 755 00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 1: and you want to get out, why I signed the contract. 756 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:20,520 Speaker 1: But but Church, but Church, if I put the contract 757 00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:22,360 Speaker 1: in front of you, and and and part of the 758 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 1: stipulation of signing or the thing of signing this, Hey, 759 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:28,640 Speaker 1: we're gonna make sure we fix everything that you also 760 00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:32,000 Speaker 1: brought to our attention if you sign this contract as well, 761 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 1: so you'll be you'll begin on making these decisions, you'll 762 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,680 Speaker 1: be whatever. So that's where Deshaun Watson Fields played it, 763 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:41,760 Speaker 1: because he spoke about some stuff, you know, some concerns 764 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,200 Speaker 1: that he had. They told them, I'm sure with something 765 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:47,440 Speaker 1: going on with you know, they explain what happened with 766 00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:49,440 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins all the other stuff, and he thought, you 767 00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:51,399 Speaker 1: know it's about to be a change, right, We're gonna 768 00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:53,000 Speaker 1: make a change. I'm signing it. This This is why 769 00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:54,879 Speaker 1: I want to be it because they said they're behind me, 770 00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:58,080 Speaker 1: and then and then they weren't. So so you traded 771 00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 1: with his friend. You tell me, you apologize for and 772 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:02,919 Speaker 1: then you're like, oh yeah, all of stuff we said 773 00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:04,760 Speaker 1: when you signed that contract that's out in the window. 774 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:11,360 Speaker 1: We go in a different direction. Understand, Church, understand that point. Church. 775 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 1: I would I would tell you after the podcast, go 776 00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:19,480 Speaker 1: look up the Sports Illustrated story about the Texans and 777 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:23,799 Speaker 1: Jack Easterby. Read that and it will give you some 778 00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:28,320 Speaker 1: insight into the issues that he has with the organizations 779 00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:31,680 Speaker 1: and other people across this league. Okay, so so that's there, 780 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,520 Speaker 1: and then I'll also give you this bit of information 781 00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:38,000 Speaker 1: why he went to Clemson when he was recruited by 782 00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:41,560 Speaker 1: Davos Sweeney and what they had there, the organization, the 783 00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:45,040 Speaker 1: family like atmosphere. And we've seen since de Sean has 784 00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 1: left there. You know what they built there, that culture 785 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:51,800 Speaker 1: they built in Clemson has been very strong. He likes that. 786 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:54,480 Speaker 1: That's what he wants and that is not there at 787 00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:57,759 Speaker 1: all in Houston. I again, it's just not um. And 788 00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:00,719 Speaker 1: what Sports Illustrated the article will show you was how 789 00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:04,560 Speaker 1: Call mcmayer has come in there and really he doesn't 790 00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:07,720 Speaker 1: know what he's doing. I mean, he just doesn't. And 791 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 1: if this is writers finding this out, imagine what the 792 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:16,040 Speaker 1: player who's there day after day has seen and what 793 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:18,600 Speaker 1: he knows. So so dive into that and I think 794 00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:20,400 Speaker 1: it will help, you know, guide you a little bit 795 00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:23,680 Speaker 1: into how he came to this decision. And he just said, 796 00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:28,600 Speaker 1: hey man, thanks, but let's let's go go our separate ways. Here. 797 00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 1: We spoke earlier pre show about three free agents that 798 00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:36,840 Speaker 1: the Cowboys have that they must sign outside of Dak Prescott. Okay, 799 00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:39,360 Speaker 1: he is obviously the number one free agent of the 800 00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:42,160 Speaker 1: guy they need to sign. But after him, who are 801 00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:45,480 Speaker 1: three guys that you think the Cowboys need to take 802 00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:50,960 Speaker 1: care of this offseason? Well, if you if this on me, 803 00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 1: there's three. There's three names. Three names that come to 804 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:56,880 Speaker 1: mind for me. And they're not household names. They're not 805 00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:59,920 Speaker 1: big time names that all, man, we gotta sign him. 806 00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:01,879 Speaker 1: He gonna help this out of third. But the three 807 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:03,920 Speaker 1: people that I and it's really four because it's kind 808 00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:05,680 Speaker 1: of a slash between the two of them that I've 809 00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:08,239 Speaker 1: I've got number one. We gotta take care of LP. 810 00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:10,560 Speaker 1: I mean, this is and I'm talking about whatever. I 811 00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:18,839 Speaker 1: don't even know how to really pronounce his last which 812 00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 1: I think that's the first time I even tried to 813 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:22,520 Speaker 1: say his last nagger. We always just call him LP. 814 00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:25,640 Speaker 1: But anyways, this is the most consistent long snapper in 815 00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:28,200 Speaker 1: the game. There hasn't been many box snaps with the 816 00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:31,279 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys since that Romo incident back in I think 817 00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:33,359 Speaker 1: it was two thousand and seven in Seattle. That might 818 00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:35,480 Speaker 1: have been the last box snap that we've had with 819 00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:37,920 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys. I'm not certain about that. But LP 820 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:41,360 Speaker 1: is the most consistent guy on this team and we 821 00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:43,440 Speaker 1: need to take care of it. Maybe a minimum contract, 822 00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:45,520 Speaker 1: but we need to take care of the second. One 823 00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 1: is kind of a slash because it could be either 824 00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:51,400 Speaker 1: or I'm going Justin March or I'm going Joe Thomas. 825 00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:54,200 Speaker 1: We need somebody to back up these linebackers. I know 826 00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:56,680 Speaker 1: we might addressed it in the draft, but if we don't, 827 00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:59,440 Speaker 1: we need somebody to back up these linebackers. Every one 828 00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:01,440 Speaker 1: of them has an injury prone I mean Sean Lee 829 00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:03,759 Speaker 1: is a free agent this year. Lbe went down for 830 00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:06,440 Speaker 1: some time, Jalen Smith went down before, so we need 831 00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:08,600 Speaker 1: somebody back there that can back him up, that knows 832 00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:11,040 Speaker 1: the system, that can run around and do similar things 833 00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 1: that these guys can do. And I think both of 834 00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:15,000 Speaker 1: them can do that as well as help out on 835 00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:16,840 Speaker 1: special teams. So I think we gotta take care of 836 00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:19,120 Speaker 1: either one of those two, maybe even both. For either 837 00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:20,880 Speaker 1: one of those two, once again, it won't be a 838 00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:23,600 Speaker 1: huge contract with those guys at all. And last, but 839 00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:26,680 Speaker 1: not least, we gotta take care of the MVP of 840 00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:29,799 Speaker 1: the team, Danny's boy C J. Goodwin, I mean little 841 00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:34,520 Speaker 1: that's been a dynamite on special teams. He's made play 842 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:37,400 Speaker 1: after play, whether it's tackling somebody, whether it's catching a 843 00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:40,080 Speaker 1: reverse passing and taking it down down the field, and 844 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:43,160 Speaker 1: special teams. This guy is a guy that we need 845 00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:46,600 Speaker 1: to market and bring back for special teams. We've seen 846 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:48,279 Speaker 1: how much that can hurt us when we don't have 847 00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:50,640 Speaker 1: guys out there that can perform at a high left 848 00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:52,360 Speaker 1: for on special teams, we give up a lot of 849 00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:54,759 Speaker 1: field position. So for me, we gotta take care of 850 00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:58,480 Speaker 1: these guys basically mainly for special teams, but they got 851 00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:02,920 Speaker 1: to be a part of this team next year. Uh yeah, listen, 852 00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:07,640 Speaker 1: I agree with you, Church, especially on LP. He has 853 00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:11,279 Speaker 1: been that that Jason Winden type of model of consistency, 854 00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:14,520 Speaker 1: especially since I've been in the league's he's been there. 855 00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:16,640 Speaker 1: You can always depend on him to make his blots 856 00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:19,279 Speaker 1: and make the snaps. And he's also one of those 857 00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:22,040 Speaker 1: quiet leaders, right, you know, you can go talk to him. 858 00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:24,239 Speaker 1: He kind of runs the special teams with the kicker. 859 00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:26,319 Speaker 1: He's not the captain, but he's one of those guys 860 00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:29,800 Speaker 1: who's always there, so you know the team can depend 861 00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:32,960 Speaker 1: on him. So I'm definitely, you know, signing to some 862 00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:36,319 Speaker 1: type of deal, some team friendly deal, and hopefully this 863 00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:38,760 Speaker 1: is one of the first times that the Cowboy takes 864 00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:42,319 Speaker 1: care of one of those special teams guys. So c J. Goodler, Man, 865 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:45,359 Speaker 1: I'm rooting for you. I am rooting for you. I 866 00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:48,680 Speaker 1: hope you get everything you deserve. Look around the league 867 00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:50,600 Speaker 1: and look at us what some of these guys are 868 00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:53,120 Speaker 1: getting paid, and make sure the Cowboys take care of you. 869 00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:55,920 Speaker 1: End that way, man, because you earned it. This year 870 00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:59,960 Speaker 1: you were the MVP of the defense and this one, Matt, 871 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:03,799 Speaker 1: you may not like this from Church. But if the 872 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:06,920 Speaker 1: cost is right, I think you have to try to 873 00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:13,520 Speaker 1: get Andy Dalton back. Well, yeah, listen, you got you got. 874 00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:16,760 Speaker 1: You got a quarterback that's coming off a very very 875 00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:20,880 Speaker 1: serious injury. Other than him, you have your guy double 876 00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:25,200 Speaker 1: G on the roster, and you know, so we don't 877 00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:27,560 Speaker 1: have anything. So you need that security blanket, just like 878 00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:30,040 Speaker 1: you needed that security blanket this year. I think have 879 00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:32,799 Speaker 1: we went in and had a different type of defensive 880 00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:36,440 Speaker 1: game plan or talent on there and we got killing 881 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:38,920 Speaker 1: more to stick to what works, which is running the 882 00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:41,279 Speaker 1: ball and focusing on play action. After that, I think 883 00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:43,160 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton would have played a lot better and we 884 00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:45,840 Speaker 1: would have win a lot, a lot, a lot deeper 885 00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:48,200 Speaker 1: into the season and possibly get into the playoffs with 886 00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:51,440 Speaker 1: a better record. So you need a safety You need 887 00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 1: a safety blanket. Man, Dak Prescot's coming off a serious injury. 888 00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:55,680 Speaker 1: You don't know when he's gonna be ready. So I'm 889 00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:58,719 Speaker 1: sharing up that backup quarterback spot. Did you see what 890 00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:03,480 Speaker 1: happened to Andy on that last game when all the 891 00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:06,520 Speaker 1: marbles was on the line, he reverted back to Andy 892 00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:11,719 Speaker 1: Dalton the Cincinnati playoff and listen, we can't depend on 893 00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:15,560 Speaker 1: that Andy Dalton. Look what happened to me? Man, this 894 00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:19,120 Speaker 1: is crazy, this is out of listening. Listen. He was 895 00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:20,839 Speaker 1: he was on and off, man, he was on and off. 896 00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:23,880 Speaker 1: Like like you said, during the season, Andy Dalton had 897 00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:26,880 Speaker 1: some some very bright spots to where you even changed 898 00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:29,640 Speaker 1: his name. Yeah, he didn't play well. He didn't play 899 00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:31,480 Speaker 1: well that last game. But I don't I don't think 900 00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:33,799 Speaker 1: that's that's how he would play the entire season. I 901 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:35,760 Speaker 1: think this would be a second year in the offense. 902 00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:37,800 Speaker 1: I think he'll play a little better if he has to. 903 00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:40,480 Speaker 1: But I'm not I'm not taking my back of quarter 904 00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:44,280 Speaker 1: position on double g. This does not happening. Not happening. 905 00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:47,520 Speaker 1: M I can't believe you said that they go ahead 906 00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:49,960 Speaker 1: and new. I can't believe talking about bringing par Paron 907 00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:56,120 Speaker 1: back in the phone. Uh. Look, I think if you're 908 00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:59,279 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton, this comes to a situation where you were, 909 00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:01,239 Speaker 1: here's a back up spent, you know, spend a few 910 00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:02,960 Speaker 1: games as a backup. Next thing you know, you're you're 911 00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:05,440 Speaker 1: starting again. And I think that's what Andy's gonna try 912 00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:06,719 Speaker 1: and do. He's gonna go out there and try and 913 00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:09,200 Speaker 1: find a place where he can go and play. There 914 00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:12,400 Speaker 1: were rumors about Andy to New England last year. Um, 915 00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:15,680 Speaker 1: if I'm Andy, I tell my agent to call Bill Belichick. Hey, see, 916 00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:17,160 Speaker 1: if I can get here, I'll take a one year 917 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:19,560 Speaker 1: deal and and you know, compete. But I think if 918 00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:21,279 Speaker 1: you're Andy Dalton, you don't want to be back here. 919 00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:23,839 Speaker 1: They're gonna bring bring back that they've told you they're 920 00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:25,880 Speaker 1: playing on bringing back Dak Prescott, and he's gonna be 921 00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:27,919 Speaker 1: the starter. So I just I just don't see Andy 922 00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:30,680 Speaker 1: Dalton here. I think he came here for what he 923 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:33,800 Speaker 1: wanted to. Yes, Newly, Andy Dalton is at the bottom 924 00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:36,840 Speaker 1: of the free agent quarterback list. All I think. I 925 00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:39,000 Speaker 1: think there are many options out there that's better than 926 00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:41,799 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton. He'll find himself looking for a job to 927 00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:45,120 Speaker 1: be another backup after all the chips to settle when 928 00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:49,320 Speaker 1: all these guys who are coming available this offseason. Okay, 929 00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:51,920 Speaker 1: so so look at NEWI would you bring Andy Dalton 930 00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:54,640 Speaker 1: back if everything lined up and he was all right, 931 00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:57,160 Speaker 1: I'll be there? Would you bring Andy Dalton back if 932 00:48:57,160 --> 00:48:59,239 Speaker 1: you can bring Andy Dalton back on the deal that 933 00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,640 Speaker 1: you just signed him too, it's three million dollars deal. Yes, 934 00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:04,920 Speaker 1: But I'm telling you, if I'm Andy Dalton. Okay, if 935 00:49:04,960 --> 00:49:07,520 Speaker 1: I'm Andy Dalton, I'll go and take lesser money to 936 00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:10,400 Speaker 1: go out here and play with Sean McVay, who's done 937 00:49:10,440 --> 00:49:13,400 Speaker 1: with Jared Golf and compete with that other guy Walford 938 00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:15,439 Speaker 1: that they have out there. Man, if I'm Andy Dalton, 939 00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:19,400 Speaker 1: there's other situations. I would take the same money as 940 00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:22,000 Speaker 1: the Cowboys or less money to go and compete and 941 00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:24,280 Speaker 1: sign an incentive laden deal. You know, if the Bears 942 00:49:24,280 --> 00:49:26,239 Speaker 1: are gon bringing up Mitchell Trabiski and Nick Foles, if 943 00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:28,439 Speaker 1: I'm Andy Dalton, I'll go over there and I'll try 944 00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:31,400 Speaker 1: my hand there. I mean, there's just other situations across 945 00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:34,080 Speaker 1: this league right now that I feel. If I'm Andy Dalton, 946 00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:36,640 Speaker 1: I think I got a better shot to go play 947 00:49:36,880 --> 00:49:39,680 Speaker 1: and actually get in there. I mean, Teddy Bridgewater up 948 00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:42,760 Speaker 1: there in Carolina, they ain't exactly given him a whole 949 00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:45,040 Speaker 1: voter confidence. So if I'm Andy Dalton, I'm gonna take 950 00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:48,120 Speaker 1: my shot where I think I got an opportunity to 951 00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:51,359 Speaker 1: play here. You know, the only way you're going to 952 00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:56,040 Speaker 1: play is if Dak Prescott is injured. These other situations 953 00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:59,440 Speaker 1: you actually could get an opportunity to play. Who knows 954 00:49:59,480 --> 00:50:01,360 Speaker 1: what they're going do out there in New Orleans. And 955 00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:03,680 Speaker 1: if they say they're gonna go with Taysom Hill, Shoot, 956 00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:05,600 Speaker 1: if I'm Andy Dalton, I roll out there too. Because 957 00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:08,560 Speaker 1: we know Taysom Hill cannot throw the football. Okay, he 958 00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:11,640 Speaker 1: can't do it. So that's my thing on Andy. There's 959 00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:14,480 Speaker 1: better situations out there that I think he could could hit. 960 00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:16,840 Speaker 1: The three free agents I have that, I think the 961 00:50:16,880 --> 00:50:22,839 Speaker 1: Cowboys should resign. CJ was number one for me. The 962 00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:27,640 Speaker 1: Cowboys special teams. It was better under John Fossell. I 963 00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:29,879 Speaker 1: think it can continue to get better. But CJ good 964 00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:32,200 Speaker 1: when it's a guy that if you lose him, you're 965 00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:34,560 Speaker 1: gonna have a hard time replacing him. This is a 966 00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:37,640 Speaker 1: young man who knows what he's doing and you can 967 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:40,360 Speaker 1: trust him. Trusting guys on special teams and knowing what 968 00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:44,920 Speaker 1: they're doing. I just think that's valuable. Number Two Joe Looney. 969 00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:47,719 Speaker 1: Joe Looney is a guy who can play center, he 970 00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:51,000 Speaker 1: can play guard. You bring him back here and if 971 00:50:51,040 --> 00:50:53,880 Speaker 1: he's backing up at both of those positions. He knows 972 00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:57,799 Speaker 1: this offense, he's trusted. I just think that's that to me, 973 00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:00,319 Speaker 1: is a valuable deal. We know how injuries go in 974 00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:02,840 Speaker 1: the National Football League, and especially after last year with 975 00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:05,840 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. Joe Looney's a guy I'm bringing back. And 976 00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:08,080 Speaker 1: a third guy that I'm going to bring back we 977 00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:10,800 Speaker 1: didn't bring up. And obviously LP's the name I probably 978 00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:12,640 Speaker 1: should have had on the list, But I'm gonna give 979 00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:17,160 Speaker 1: you a name here. Unrestricted wide receiver Noah Brown. There's 980 00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:19,160 Speaker 1: a guy that I looked at. I thought he had 981 00:51:19,239 --> 00:51:23,439 Speaker 1: some nice moments last year, and I'd like to bring 982 00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:27,839 Speaker 1: him back if I'm the Cowboys, because once again it's 983 00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:30,560 Speaker 1: injuries and having some depth here and somebody that knows 984 00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:33,319 Speaker 1: your offense. I'd like to see what Noah Brown could do. 985 00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:36,080 Speaker 1: I'd like to see what he could do with Dak Prescott. 986 00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:38,880 Speaker 1: So those are my three tacks. You know, you know 987 00:51:38,960 --> 00:51:40,400 Speaker 1: who I would like to see what they can do. 988 00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:44,360 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper. I want to see what a Cooper. I 989 00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:47,040 Speaker 1: would have seen what al Mara Cooper could do when 990 00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:49,640 Speaker 1: you treat him like the number one receiver that he 991 00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:52,840 Speaker 1: deserves to be treated like scheme ups the rose for 992 00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:55,400 Speaker 1: the guy. Let him get sixteen seventeen hundred yards in 993 00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:58,239 Speaker 1: the season with ten touchdowns. Have him out there looking 994 00:51:58,280 --> 00:52:01,880 Speaker 1: like Davante Adams. Keep Noah Brown author roster because the 995 00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:05,920 Speaker 1: more weapons that you give Keller Moore, the more Amari 996 00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:09,280 Speaker 1: Cooper falls to the wayside. And that twenty million dollars 997 00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:12,239 Speaker 1: that he's making is going out the window this year, 998 00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:17,040 Speaker 1: it's going you. You might not even be starting. Can 999 00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:20,399 Speaker 1: I say that? Can I say this? Danny? You walked 1000 00:52:20,440 --> 00:52:22,319 Speaker 1: right into the trap when I broke down? No bol, 1001 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:26,160 Speaker 1: I was like, I do, what's gonna happen with this? Danny? 1002 00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:29,799 Speaker 1: You just walking right on through that one? I listen. 1003 00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:31,680 Speaker 1: I wanted to be in there, man. I want people 1004 00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:34,600 Speaker 1: to Amari Cooper is the number one receiver and he 1005 00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:37,480 Speaker 1: deserves to be treated and such, specially getting paid one 1006 00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:40,359 Speaker 1: hundred million bucks. All right, So treat him that way. Man. 1007 00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:42,919 Speaker 1: We don't need numbre receivers. We got Gallop, we got 1008 00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:46,080 Speaker 1: CD and we got a Murray Cooper, we got Blake Joe, 1009 00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:49,640 Speaker 1: when we got Usten. We got so many weapons. We 1010 00:52:49,680 --> 00:52:52,360 Speaker 1: don't need another one to take the attention off of 1011 00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:55,200 Speaker 1: our number one guy who is going to help carry 1012 00:52:55,280 --> 00:52:58,239 Speaker 1: us deep into the playoffs and possibly to a super Bowl. No. 1013 00:52:58,239 --> 00:53:00,799 Speaker 1: I don't want to hear another about Noah Brown. Did 1014 00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:04,600 Speaker 1: you guys, did you guys have your top three quarterback 1015 00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:08,320 Speaker 1: free agents? Did you have your list there? If we're 1016 00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:10,800 Speaker 1: in if we're talking about if we're bringing every quarterback 1017 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:13,480 Speaker 1: that may be free agents, Oh yeah, we can do that. 1018 00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:18,280 Speaker 1: All right, go ahead, Church, what you got the top three? 1019 00:53:18,520 --> 00:53:20,800 Speaker 1: Now we're talking about just top three quarterbacks? Right? Just 1020 00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:25,719 Speaker 1: free agents coming up? Listen that that that includes that 1021 00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:28,520 Speaker 1: to me, that includes like Big Band who possibly could 1022 00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:33,560 Speaker 1: be available. And I also threw in, uh yeah, I know, 1023 00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:36,600 Speaker 1: I never remember. And the thing, these are guys who 1024 00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:39,000 Speaker 1: could possibly be on the move this year, like if 1025 00:53:39,040 --> 00:53:41,279 Speaker 1: you wanted to make a move for Deshaun Watson, if 1026 00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:43,440 Speaker 1: you want to make a move for Big Band because 1027 00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:45,960 Speaker 1: they weren't gonna pay him forty million dollars and he 1028 00:53:46,080 --> 00:53:48,400 Speaker 1: ended up being whatever. This is, these are people who 1029 00:53:48,480 --> 00:53:53,000 Speaker 1: could possibly be available. Who are the top guys? We'll 1030 00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:54,960 Speaker 1: go ahead? Then you got you gotta go ahead? Go ahead? 1031 00:53:55,640 --> 00:53:59,319 Speaker 1: All right, Listen, I'm going Jamis Winston, Cam Newton and 1032 00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:16,000 Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick. Now I'm kidding. I'm kidding Patrick. I was 1033 00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:18,560 Speaker 1: a kidding man. I'm a kid. I was a kid. Listen, 1034 00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:23,520 Speaker 1: my number my number one guy, just because everybody is 1035 00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:27,040 Speaker 1: talking about him, everybody's talking about him. The number one 1036 00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:29,760 Speaker 1: guy to me has to be de Sean Watson. Where 1037 00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:32,200 Speaker 1: is he landing there? What type of deal are you 1038 00:54:32,239 --> 00:54:34,479 Speaker 1: trying to put together if you're a team that really 1039 00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:37,399 Speaker 1: needs a quarterback and and and that's that's the only 1040 00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:39,040 Speaker 1: thing that you need to get you really started, or 1041 00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:41,400 Speaker 1: you looking for a franchise guy. De Sean Watson. I 1042 00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:43,400 Speaker 1: want to put back second because I don't want him 1043 00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:46,200 Speaker 1: to go anywhere. But you know, in all reality, he 1044 00:54:46,400 --> 00:54:48,479 Speaker 1: is going to be a free agent and he could 1045 00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:51,120 Speaker 1: possibly be on the move and that that would be 1046 00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:54,200 Speaker 1: very unfortunate for us. And number three for me would 1047 00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:56,680 Speaker 1: be my guy Stafford. And even though he's not healthy, 1048 00:54:56,719 --> 00:54:59,080 Speaker 1: I think if you put him in the right system, 1049 00:54:59,080 --> 00:55:03,640 Speaker 1: maybe a New England, maybe San Francisco, you know, get 1050 00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:05,680 Speaker 1: him with the right coach and the right weapons, I 1051 00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:07,800 Speaker 1: think he can be a top player. He could carret 1052 00:55:07,800 --> 00:55:09,520 Speaker 1: team deeper to the playoffs as well. So those are 1053 00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:14,120 Speaker 1: my top three, Okay, solid list, solid lists for me. 1054 00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:17,080 Speaker 1: If we're talking about guys that may be on the move, 1055 00:55:17,160 --> 00:55:20,440 Speaker 1: included into this top free agent list or top quarterback 1056 00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:24,880 Speaker 1: lists of guys who might might change teams. My three 1057 00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:27,399 Speaker 1: and would be of course the shan Watson. We've talked 1058 00:55:27,440 --> 00:55:29,360 Speaker 1: a lot about him where he could land in the 1059 00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:33,840 Speaker 1: possibilities for me to shan Watching, the best landing spot 1060 00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:36,400 Speaker 1: in my opinion for him would be out there. I 1061 00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:37,840 Speaker 1: don't know if this is gonna get done. It probably 1062 00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:40,719 Speaker 1: ain't gonna get done, but I would say San Francisco 1063 00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:43,320 Speaker 1: just because to me, they have one of the most 1064 00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:46,839 Speaker 1: creative offensive minds over there in Shanahan, and I feel 1065 00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:49,880 Speaker 1: like Shanahan, after a couple of years, he could be considered, 1066 00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:52,680 Speaker 1: you know, one of them offensive geniuses like Andy Reid. 1067 00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:54,600 Speaker 1: So I think if he took his talents over there 1068 00:55:54,640 --> 00:55:57,400 Speaker 1: to San Francisco with that bona fide running attack, it 1069 00:55:57,560 --> 00:55:59,799 Speaker 1: seems like no matter who's in the backfield, you got 1070 00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:03,480 Speaker 1: Unt's Jeff Wilson back there, you got Tavin coleman Um, 1071 00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:06,239 Speaker 1: you got Mozart back there. Whoever's back there running the ball, 1072 00:56:06,239 --> 00:56:07,880 Speaker 1: they do it effectively and it would have put a 1073 00:56:07,880 --> 00:56:09,879 Speaker 1: lot of pressure off of the Shaw Watson. So if 1074 00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:12,480 Speaker 1: I think if he went out there and combined with Shanahan, 1075 00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:15,640 Speaker 1: I think that would be an immaculate, immaculate couple right there. 1076 00:56:15,680 --> 00:56:19,200 Speaker 1: But I highly highly doubt that's gonna happen. Um, so 1077 00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:22,080 Speaker 1: from my number two possible, and I think it's the 1078 00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:25,600 Speaker 1: most intriguing quarterback that could be on the move. To me, 1079 00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:28,920 Speaker 1: it's Big Ben out out in Pittsburgh. Um. To me, 1080 00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:30,879 Speaker 1: he came across if you guys listened a little bit 1081 00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:33,759 Speaker 1: today for his interview yesterday or today, one of the two, 1082 00:56:34,040 --> 00:56:36,200 Speaker 1: he came across to me as being kind of kind 1083 00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:38,120 Speaker 1: of begging for his job. I mean, like, this is 1084 00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:40,600 Speaker 1: one of the best quarterbacks to ever play the game 1085 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:42,359 Speaker 1: in my opinion, But he's out there saying, you know, 1086 00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:44,400 Speaker 1: you know, I'll take I'll take a pay cut. It 1087 00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:46,680 Speaker 1: doesn't matter what I'm paid, just you know, just give 1088 00:56:46,719 --> 00:56:48,640 Speaker 1: me one more shot at as a as a quarterback 1089 00:56:48,680 --> 00:56:50,840 Speaker 1: for the Pittsburgh Steelers. And then if you've seen the 1090 00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:53,080 Speaker 1: Rooney's over there, they're saying, yeah, you know, you know, 1091 00:56:53,120 --> 00:56:56,560 Speaker 1: we would like to have Big Ben back, but these 1092 00:56:56,560 --> 00:56:59,719 Speaker 1: are gonna a lot of things are yeah, like it 1093 00:56:59,880 --> 00:57:04,600 Speaker 1: like not to change. But that's legitimate. I mean, you 1094 00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:06,759 Speaker 1: guys have been in this business song enough and you 1095 00:57:06,840 --> 00:57:10,080 Speaker 1: signed you know, you've seen contracts that forty one million 1096 00:57:10,120 --> 00:57:12,560 Speaker 1: dollars they put in there. You're never going to be paid. 1097 00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:14,560 Speaker 1: It was just something that the agent put in there 1098 00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:16,200 Speaker 1: to make it look good that he could send up 1099 00:57:16,320 --> 00:57:18,680 Speaker 1: and say I got being an extension and paying blah 1100 00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:20,520 Speaker 1: blah blah. But they were never paying the forty one 1101 00:57:20,600 --> 00:57:22,960 Speaker 1: million dollars. And Rooney came out and said it, we 1102 00:57:23,040 --> 00:57:26,880 Speaker 1: ain't paying forty one million dollars. And I think, from 1103 00:57:26,880 --> 00:57:28,280 Speaker 1: what But if you're a big man, do you do 1104 00:57:28,320 --> 00:57:30,200 Speaker 1: you you beg for it like that? To me, I'm 1105 00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:31,720 Speaker 1: not doing that if I mean, this is a guy 1106 00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:35,640 Speaker 1: that's a two times Super Bowl chant like, look, he 1107 00:57:35,680 --> 00:57:40,080 Speaker 1: ain't the same. I'm sorry, bro, he looked like he 1108 00:57:40,120 --> 00:57:43,600 Speaker 1: looked shot. Okay, he looked like a shot fighter this year. Okay. 1109 00:57:43,920 --> 00:57:47,160 Speaker 1: So and it's not after that surgery. This is just 1110 00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:49,360 Speaker 1: one year after that surgery. They say it takes two 1111 00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:51,800 Speaker 1: years to get back. So maybe I'm him. I'm not 1112 00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:54,920 Speaker 1: begging for the job like that, but but look I wouldn't. 1113 00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:58,600 Speaker 1: But they're telling you, hey, bro, we like you, but 1114 00:57:58,680 --> 00:58:01,520 Speaker 1: we don't like your forty one. But at this situation, 1115 00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:03,480 Speaker 1: you look at where the Steelers are at. Okay, they're 1116 00:58:03,600 --> 00:58:06,240 Speaker 1: up against the cap. Bud Dupree is a free agent. 1117 00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:08,840 Speaker 1: They've got it. They're now in that window. Where they 1118 00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:12,320 Speaker 1: can resign t J. Watt, Juju Smith Schuster is a 1119 00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:17,120 Speaker 1: free agent him they need a lesson. I'm just saying 1120 00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:22,840 Speaker 1: they've got serious contractual issues. And the lowest apparently according 1121 00:58:22,840 --> 00:58:25,080 Speaker 1: to Bob Graiziano esp and the lowest they could get 1122 00:58:25,120 --> 00:58:28,560 Speaker 1: Ben to is twenty three million dollars. So ask yourself, 1123 00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:32,040 Speaker 1: this is Ben Roethlisberger worth twenty three million dollars as 1124 00:58:32,040 --> 00:58:34,760 Speaker 1: a quarterback next year? Or can you move on and 1125 00:58:34,800 --> 00:58:37,880 Speaker 1: get a cheaper option? Can you go get a Andy Dalton, 1126 00:58:38,040 --> 00:58:40,400 Speaker 1: a Jameis Winston? Do you give up your number one 1127 00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:43,280 Speaker 1: for Matthew Stafford who's making about twenty seventy million dollars? 1128 00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:45,560 Speaker 1: So who would you rather have? Matt Stafford at twenty 1129 00:58:45,560 --> 00:58:49,760 Speaker 1: seven million or Ben Roethlisberger making twenty three? Possible are 1130 00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:51,800 Speaker 1: we saying? Are we saying Stafford and the number up 1131 00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:56,160 Speaker 1: there with big Ben Roethlisberger at this point, if you're 1132 00:58:56,160 --> 00:58:58,520 Speaker 1: telling me next year, I could have take those casts 1133 00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:01,120 Speaker 1: to eleven and old. I mean they took towards the end, 1134 00:59:01,160 --> 00:59:05,880 Speaker 1: but he did take If Pittsburgh, if Pittsburgh don't get 1135 00:59:05,920 --> 00:59:07,800 Speaker 1: a running game, it don't matter who they got out there, 1136 00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:10,280 Speaker 1: all right, They couldn't run the ball two yards, all right, 1137 00:59:10,600 --> 00:59:12,400 Speaker 1: So it don't matter who you got out the big 1138 00:59:12,440 --> 00:59:14,760 Speaker 1: baby throwing the ball sixty times. You know, Matthew Stafford 1139 00:59:14,800 --> 00:59:16,720 Speaker 1: and throw a sixty times. He ain't gonna win those games. 1140 00:59:17,120 --> 00:59:21,280 Speaker 1: They can't win that way. You're right, James, James Connor 1141 00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:23,520 Speaker 1: is a free agent. You need to upgrade your offensive linster. 1142 00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:25,680 Speaker 1: So there's a whole lot of issues there. But I'm sorry. 1143 00:59:25,720 --> 00:59:28,600 Speaker 1: I would I would. I would wave goodbye to been Roethlisberger, 1144 00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:30,600 Speaker 1: and if I'm a team out here, I wouldn't be 1145 00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:34,720 Speaker 1: signing him. He is passed. What you're going to get 1146 00:59:34,920 --> 00:59:38,080 Speaker 1: is almost what Indianapolis got out of Philip Rivers. He 1147 00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:40,760 Speaker 1: was okay, but Rivers couldn't take them over the top. 1148 00:59:40,880 --> 00:59:43,960 Speaker 1: He doesn't have that ability anymore. These guys are like pictures. 1149 00:59:44,560 --> 00:59:46,720 Speaker 1: When in their prime they were throwing a ninety seven 1150 00:59:46,840 --> 00:59:49,040 Speaker 1: ninety eight, you couldn't touch it. Now they had lost 1151 00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:51,280 Speaker 1: five miles an hour. People are tagging that ball, and 1152 00:59:51,320 --> 00:59:52,960 Speaker 1: so now they got to be crafty with it. Some 1153 00:59:53,040 --> 00:59:54,800 Speaker 1: days they'll be good, some days they'll be bad. They're 1154 00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:57,000 Speaker 1: not what they used to be, and that's the problem. 1155 00:59:57,040 --> 00:59:59,720 Speaker 1: You're paying for a guy who's not what he used 1156 00:59:59,720 --> 01:00:02,240 Speaker 1: to be. And that's what the Steelers, in my opinion, 1157 01:00:02,320 --> 01:00:04,840 Speaker 1: should go ahead and say goodbye to. If he's not 1158 01:00:04,880 --> 01:00:06,240 Speaker 1: what he used to be, why are we gonna keep 1159 01:00:06,280 --> 01:00:09,120 Speaker 1: playing this game? Why we're gonna keep on doing this? 1160 01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:12,320 Speaker 1: So you don't think he even at twenty three mile, 1161 01:00:12,320 --> 01:00:15,120 Speaker 1: you wouldn't bring any back for one year. At twenty three, 1162 01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:19,760 Speaker 1: I'll give I'll bring him back with forty one is 1163 01:00:19,760 --> 01:00:21,760 Speaker 1: out of pocket. There's no way, there's no way in 1164 01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:24,840 Speaker 1: hell he's even near forty one. But but twenty three, 1165 01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:28,400 Speaker 1: at some point, I think they gave one more. At 1166 01:00:28,440 --> 01:00:31,560 Speaker 1: some point in time, you need to hit the reset, buddy, 1167 01:00:32,240 --> 01:00:34,960 Speaker 1: And okay, and I'm gonna go ahead and look at 1168 01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:37,760 Speaker 1: the Saints this year. Here's a team that tried to 1169 01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:41,000 Speaker 1: go one more year at Drew Brees. Now. I heard 1170 01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:46,160 Speaker 1: they were in conversations with Tom Brady and and what 1171 01:00:46,280 --> 01:00:48,680 Speaker 1: I was told was a Sean Payton really would have 1172 01:00:48,760 --> 01:00:51,560 Speaker 1: liked it had Tom Brady. But you know know, they kept 1173 01:00:51,600 --> 01:00:53,680 Speaker 1: going back and forth with Drew, and Drew kind of 1174 01:00:53,720 --> 01:00:56,720 Speaker 1: held him up. And then at this end Drew said, okay, fine, 1175 01:00:56,720 --> 01:00:59,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it. But they were looking to move 1176 01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:03,240 Speaker 1: on from Drew Brees. From what I was told from 1177 01:01:03,240 --> 01:01:06,440 Speaker 1: an inside who knows the organization very well, But what 1178 01:01:06,520 --> 01:01:08,920 Speaker 1: did we see from Drew last year? They could win 1179 01:01:08,960 --> 01:01:10,840 Speaker 1: some games, but this dude couldn't throw it down feeling 1180 01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:12,800 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. To Bowler is like, man, this guy 1181 01:01:12,840 --> 01:01:15,080 Speaker 1: person he was hurt and this dude couldn't push the 1182 01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:17,240 Speaker 1: ball down to feel they sat on the routes. Ben 1183 01:01:17,320 --> 01:01:20,800 Speaker 1: Roethlisberger is a guy. Man, Look, I'm sorry. They're not 1184 01:01:20,800 --> 01:01:22,480 Speaker 1: gonna win games and this dude he don't even throw 1185 01:01:22,480 --> 01:01:24,160 Speaker 1: it down to feel like he used to. You gotta 1186 01:01:24,200 --> 01:01:27,960 Speaker 1: start saying goodbye to these older dudes and move on, man, 1187 01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:32,920 Speaker 1: move on. If you're the Steelers, trade I will. I 1188 01:01:32,960 --> 01:01:35,440 Speaker 1: will trade up in the draft. I'll trade up in 1189 01:01:35,480 --> 01:01:37,800 Speaker 1: the draft and go get it, get one of these guys. 1190 01:01:37,920 --> 01:01:39,680 Speaker 1: But I would not be sitting up here trying to 1191 01:01:39,720 --> 01:01:43,200 Speaker 1: do this thing with with Ben roethlisbergers scause you end 1192 01:01:43,280 --> 01:01:45,200 Speaker 1: up like Philip Rivers and the Coast. These guys can't 1193 01:01:45,200 --> 01:01:47,640 Speaker 1: put you over the top. I know, I know you 1194 01:01:47,680 --> 01:01:49,400 Speaker 1: want to get on Drew Brees and not throwing it 1195 01:01:49,440 --> 01:01:54,560 Speaker 1: down the field, but they made deep threats. He had 1196 01:01:54,560 --> 01:01:57,480 Speaker 1: Emmanuel Sanders. Man, they didn't get the ball down Emmanuel Sanders. 1197 01:01:58,120 --> 01:02:01,400 Speaker 1: They Immanuel Sanders ain't no true. He's not a true 1198 01:02:01,680 --> 01:02:04,720 Speaker 1: He's a route runner. That's what he's good at, running routes, 1199 01:02:04,840 --> 01:02:07,200 Speaker 1: just like Michael Thomas. They were set up to run 1200 01:02:07,480 --> 01:02:10,800 Speaker 1: to run quick game, short routes. Slanting Diggs. That that 1201 01:02:10,440 --> 01:02:12,320 Speaker 1: that that's the type of person on their head on 1202 01:02:12,320 --> 01:02:14,960 Speaker 1: the sad. They tried it one more They tried it 1203 01:02:15,040 --> 01:02:17,439 Speaker 1: one more time. They tried it one more time with him. 1204 01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:19,400 Speaker 1: They tried it one more time with Drew Brees and 1205 01:02:19,440 --> 01:02:21,840 Speaker 1: it didn't work. And now they're finally going to move 1206 01:02:21,880 --> 01:02:24,479 Speaker 1: on from him. But I just I just thought Drew 1207 01:02:24,480 --> 01:02:27,680 Speaker 1: Brees he I thought he had his run. I thought 1208 01:02:27,680 --> 01:02:29,680 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers had his run. And now I'm of the 1209 01:02:29,720 --> 01:02:32,960 Speaker 1: opinion Ben Roethlisberger has had his run. But if people 1210 01:02:32,960 --> 01:02:35,200 Speaker 1: want to keep on running it back like giants, tried 1211 01:02:35,280 --> 01:02:38,560 Speaker 1: to show show me where it works with these guys 1212 01:02:38,800 --> 01:02:41,600 Speaker 1: that are older like this, in these late thirties. These dudes, 1213 01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:43,000 Speaker 1: are you looking at me like, hey man, he ain't 1214 01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:44,480 Speaker 1: got it into one. I mean, show me where it's 1215 01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:46,600 Speaker 1: working with some of these guys. Where you've seen cracks 1216 01:02:46,600 --> 01:02:48,360 Speaker 1: in their army. Tell me, tell me who it worked 1217 01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:54,120 Speaker 1: with outside of Tom Brady. But I think I think 1218 01:02:54,200 --> 01:02:57,240 Speaker 1: all big Ben knees Man is a solid running game man, 1219 01:02:57,280 --> 01:02:59,400 Speaker 1: and he has a solid running game like he did 1220 01:02:59,440 --> 01:03:01,280 Speaker 1: in his early part of his career. I think he can. 1221 01:03:01,440 --> 01:03:03,120 Speaker 1: I think he can take those guys, you know that, 1222 01:03:03,280 --> 01:03:05,400 Speaker 1: maybe even a distance, maybe even all the way. But 1223 01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:07,080 Speaker 1: I just don't think he can do it on his 1224 01:03:07,120 --> 01:03:09,120 Speaker 1: own anymore. I don't think he can just use his 1225 01:03:09,240 --> 01:03:11,640 Speaker 1: arm strength to will a team um to that, to that, 1226 01:03:11,720 --> 01:03:13,240 Speaker 1: to that top of the mountain. I think he needs 1227 01:03:13,240 --> 01:03:14,760 Speaker 1: help around him, and I think he needs a solid 1228 01:03:14,840 --> 01:03:17,120 Speaker 1: running game. But at twenty three if if you can 1229 01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:21,040 Speaker 1: get him at twenty three mill with a good running game, 1230 01:03:21,120 --> 01:03:22,440 Speaker 1: I think you do it. I think you give it 1231 01:03:22,480 --> 01:03:25,880 Speaker 1: one more goal. No, man, you just gave it one 1232 01:03:25,920 --> 01:03:28,000 Speaker 1: more goal. And that's the thing. You know, he's coming 1233 01:03:28,080 --> 01:03:30,040 Speaker 1: up shoulders certain, Yeah, we got one more goal. You 1234 01:03:30,120 --> 01:03:32,560 Speaker 1: just gave it one more go and it didn't go 1235 01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:34,840 Speaker 1: the way you wanted to. So so now you're saying, 1236 01:03:34,880 --> 01:03:37,280 Speaker 1: let's try it one more time, then you're gonna be 1237 01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:39,720 Speaker 1: the Saints. Well they tried it one more time with 1238 01:03:39,720 --> 01:03:41,760 Speaker 1: with with Drew Brees. Sooner or later, you're gonna have 1239 01:03:41,800 --> 01:03:44,040 Speaker 1: to just say, hey man, we gotta go get somebody. 1240 01:03:44,240 --> 01:03:46,960 Speaker 1: We gotta go get somebody. Maybe you move up in 1241 01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:49,520 Speaker 1: the draft. You keep him at twenty three, and maybe 1242 01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:51,240 Speaker 1: you move up in the draft and get your quarterback 1243 01:03:51,280 --> 01:03:53,040 Speaker 1: so you can be that bridge guy. Maybe he'll be 1244 01:03:53,120 --> 01:03:55,000 Speaker 1: that bridge guy who knows that. I say, you give 1245 01:03:55,080 --> 01:03:58,880 Speaker 1: him think so, chur Church. Remember when you were growing 1246 01:03:58,960 --> 01:04:01,120 Speaker 1: up and they kept giving or else Steward one more time. 1247 01:04:01,160 --> 01:04:02,960 Speaker 1: You know he had that great slash year. They kept 1248 01:04:02,960 --> 01:04:05,400 Speaker 1: on trying to find that slash here one more time, 1249 01:04:05,560 --> 01:04:09,880 Speaker 1: they say, and they said, you know what, man, we're 1250 01:04:09,960 --> 01:04:12,480 Speaker 1: gonna go draft a quarterback. And they drafted big then. 1251 01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:14,800 Speaker 1: So at some point time, man, you gotta stop trying 1252 01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:18,240 Speaker 1: to hey man, maybe one more time this our teams. 1253 01:04:18,280 --> 01:04:21,040 Speaker 1: Do I know he get this? I knew like once 1254 01:04:21,080 --> 01:04:22,400 Speaker 1: you get close to the end of the show this, 1255 01:04:22,440 --> 01:04:24,720 Speaker 1: I knew he get man. He started talking about crazy 1256 01:04:25,080 --> 01:04:29,800 Speaker 1: and talked about nights on, about cut Steward.
