1
00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:04,480
Speaker 1: The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com

2
00:00:04,519 --> 00:00:06,320
Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.

3
00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:09,520
Speaker 2: Cowboys.

4
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:16,239
Speaker 1: This is these Cowboys Storylines with Nick Eatman.

5
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:22,120
Speaker 2: Good morning, it is time for Cowboys storyline. I'm Nick

6
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:28,520
Speaker 2: Eatman and it is October ninth, Monday morning. What was that?

7
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:31,640
Speaker 2: I don't know. I was still trying to figure out

8
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 2: what happened with the Cowboys and forty nine Ers on

9
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:38,559
Speaker 2: Sunday night with the whole world watching, and that was

10
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:42,600
Speaker 2: about as bad as of a game you could possibly

11
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 2: have for the Cowboys and humbling, demoralizing, embarrassing. All of

12
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:49,879
Speaker 2: the words have been said. All of them seemed to

13
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,839
Speaker 2: be true. And you know, it was supposed to be

14
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 2: a barometer game, and let's hope not from the Cowboys standpoint,

15
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 2: because if that's the case, then obviously this is going

16
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 2: to be a long season.

17
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 3: Uh.

18
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 2: This is not the team that we thought that they were. Uh.

19
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 2: Everyone knew this was gonna be a tough challenge with

20
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:10,399
Speaker 2: the forty nine ers because they, you know, they have

21
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 2: had the Cowboys number and they've had everyone's number there.

22
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 2: They've been the best team in the league right now

23
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 2: this year. But but to go out and play the

24
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 2: way they did. You know, you thought it was going

25
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 2: to be a statement game. Let's let's hope you know

26
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 2: that it there wasn't, but let's talk about it. We know,

27
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 2: we know how we know the drill eight eight eight

28
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 2: eight five five two two nine seven. As the lights

29
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 2: went out here a little bit. The lights went out

30
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 2: on the Cowboys the other night or last night as well.

31
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 2: So all right, let's go. Let's go right to the

32
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 2: phone line. Darien and Houston, you're the first caller.

33
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 4: Hey, what's something, Hey, what's up?

34
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 5: Not much? Man?

35
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 6: Look, I'm gonna start by saying that I'm with this

36
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 6: team for the long haul. That three and two and

37
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 6: it's a long season, but we got beat up, man,

38
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 6: and I'm worried about the injuries were sustained more so

39
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 6: than the Week five loss. And I'm normally somebody that

40
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 6: tries to find a way to defend our guys and

41
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 6: look for a silver lining. But that loss is as

42
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,080
Speaker 6: bad as it gets. And people are going to come

43
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 6: for Dak and McCarthy. You know what, anything they say

44
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 6: will probably be warranted, and they're entitled to whatever opinion

45
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,919
Speaker 6: they have with this group after that showing. But if

46
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 6: you come for those guys need to come for everyone else.

47
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,080
Speaker 6: CD could not get open. This old line did not

48
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 6: block well Tony Pollard, who is now the feature back.

49
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 6: You know, this is what people have been asking for.

50
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 6: He got stuffed, looks slow, looked like he wasn't running hard.

51
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 6: He also flumbled. Michael Parsons no showed, but I'm glad

52
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 6: you got to get his jersey swap with McCaffrey. The

53
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 6: D line got taken out completely, got no pass rush,

54
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 6: secondary got picked apart, and then boneheaded penalties. You know,

55
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,519
Speaker 6: this team no showed at every level, and I don't

56
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,080
Speaker 6: think it was any one person's fault, but to me,

57
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 6: there was a singular moment that I feel like this

58
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 6: game was lost, and it was right before the two

59
00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,919
Speaker 6: minute warning in the second quarter. We have the ball down,

60
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 6: two touchdowns for them too, and they decided to.

61
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 5: Punt the ball.

62
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 6: Now, granted we're at our own forty three, but not

63
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 6: feeling like you could get two yards there so that

64
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 6: you could try to score before half and then get

65
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 6: the ball back and try to tie this thing up

66
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 6: or get get closer showed me that they just didn't

67
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:16,640
Speaker 6: have it this week.

68
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:17,800
Speaker 5: Anyway.

69
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 6: Those are my thought. What did you think about not

70
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 6: going for it there, and then any updates if you

71
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 6: have any on the injuries would be great. I know

72
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 6: it's only like twelve hours out of the game. Anyway,

73
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,799
Speaker 6: I'll hang up and listen. Thanks thanks for the time, man.

74
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 2: And thank you Darren. Thanks for the call. Great call.

75
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 2: By the way, A lot of it hit hit the

76
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:34,519
Speaker 2: nail on the head. I think in a lot of ways.

77
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 2: You know, I've said this statement before and it holds

78
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 2: true in this game. You don't have enough. You don't

79
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 2: have enough fingers if you're going to fingerpoint, I mean

80
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 2: you just don't. You can go you can toe point,

81
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 2: finger point, elbow point, whatever. Everybody gets a little bit

82
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 2: on this one, and you know rightfully, so I agree

83
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 2: with you one hundred percent about the fourth and two.

84
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 2: I tweeted it and I said something to the point of,

85
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 2: you know, this is it's not ideal. I mean, you

86
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 2: don't want to be going for it here, but being

87
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 2: down by fourteen points isn't good either. When did you

88
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 2: think you're going to get these possessions back? It didn't.

89
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 2: It didn't add up to me. And then the next

90
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 2: possession they were calling timeouts and and things like that.

91
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 2: When I was thinking at that point, let's just get

92
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:26,280
Speaker 2: into halftime, you know. But but yeah, just to just

93
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 2: to show the team that it's fourth and two and

94
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 2: we we can't get these two yards, so we're gonna

95
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,280
Speaker 2: punt it and we're gonna hope that our defense makes

96
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 2: plays or something. But yeah, I thought that was very

97
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 2: indicative of the of the entire game, that that that

98
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,719
Speaker 2: play right there, that that moment where just you just

99
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 2: kind of felt like fourteen points felt like twenty eight,

100
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:50,160
Speaker 2: and over time it got there, it got to what

101
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 2: thirty two. Injury wise, it's a it's a little bit early.

102
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,040
Speaker 2: Leton vander Esch, though, I get the sense that a

103
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,480
Speaker 2: lot of what we saw was precautionary with his neck injury.

104
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,600
Speaker 2: Anytime you see any kind of neck stinger, which is

105
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 2: what I believe he had, they're going to be very

106
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 2: very cautious on every player, especially a guy with the

107
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 2: neck history like Leyton Vandresh. I think he's going to

108
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 2: be okay, that's my my from what I was told.

109
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 2: I don't think this is going to be a serious thing.

110
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,599
Speaker 2: You know, remember they got the game this week and

111
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 2: then the bye that might effect on some of these

112
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 2: injuries could be high ankle sprain on Turpen. He could

113
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:32,840
Speaker 2: be a little bit CJ. Goodwin. I know they're looking

114
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 2: at his shoulder arm. That one might be actually the

115
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,720
Speaker 2: worst of them all. But it looked bad with him

116
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 2: limping off a lot. But I think they're not going

117
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,200
Speaker 2: to be too bad when it comes to injuries. Again,

118
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 2: Let's see it what happens later in the day with

119
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 2: some of these MRIs. Maybe that happened. And what McCarthy

120
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 2: says in his press conference, All right Raza in Virginia?

121
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 2: Is that how I say that? Right? Raza?

122
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, correct?

123
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 2: How you doing?

124
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 7: Hey good?

125
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,160
Speaker 8: You know, longtime listener, love your work, make great Thank

126
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:01,720
Speaker 8: you on the show.

127
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 2: Thank you.

128
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,159
Speaker 8: I just want to say, man, I've been a Dak

129
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 8: defender his whole career. It's just I don't know if

130
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,279
Speaker 8: I could defend him anymore. I just want to get

131
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 8: your thoughts on why can't we do more of the

132
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,359
Speaker 8: Texas part of the Texas Coast, go back to what

133
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 8: was working last year, and do you think somehow, some

134
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 8: way we can just eat Dak sixty one million next

135
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 8: year and then just let him play this year next

136
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 8: year and see what Crey Lance has got. Yeah, I'll

137
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 8: listen and all right, you know, just having a tough

138
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:38,719
Speaker 8: time hopefully. I know it's a long season.

139
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,480
Speaker 2: But yeah, yeah, wow, tough right now. Yeah, it is,

140
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:46,480
Speaker 2: it is, you know. And Dak he didn't play well,

141
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 2: I mean at all. He did not He did not

142
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 2: play well, you know. But but again, as the first

143
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 2: caller says, I think, you know, there's there's a lot

144
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 2: of reasons for that lot of I don't know who did.

145
00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,479
Speaker 2: I really, I don't know who played well in the game.

146
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 2: I mean, I know Patrick Walker writes his game Breaker

147
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 2: story and he puts some guys in there. I've been

148
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 2: I don't know who had a great game or even

149
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 2: a good game. That offensive line didn't I mean that,

150
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 2: and that that was a you know, Dak wasn't comfortable,

151
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 2: and I don't know how he could be, you know,

152
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 2: with with that. And I'm not I'm not defending Dak

153
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 2: on that he didn't play well at all, but I

154
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 2: mean the offensive line didn't didn't help much. The receivers, uh,

155
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 2: you know, they they didn't do a whole lot for

156
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 2: him either. I'm just gonna keep it at that right now,

157
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 2: you know, I'm not I I said to myself, you know,

158
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 2: yet last night and this morning that we're not going

159
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 2: to get into a lot of off season talk right now.

160
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 2: It's just the narrative will change it. That's just that's

161
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 2: how this thing goes. I'm not gonna sit here and

162
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 2: and and speculate on on who's gonna, you know, do

163
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 2: what with contract wise. It all that. I mean, they

164
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 2: have to beat the Chargers. That's what they have to do.

165
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 2: They have to go beat the Chargers, and that's you know,

166
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 2: We'll see how they respond. They've they've responded well to

167
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 2: to losses in the last couple of years. That has

168
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 2: been well documented. We'll see how they respond to this

169
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 2: ass kicking. Basically, there's no other way to really say it.

170
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 2: So all right, let's go back to the Let's go

171
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 2: to callers from grape Vine, Texas ten and grape Vine, Texas.

172
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 9: What's up man, Nick, Good morning, sir, Happy october Man. Hey,

173
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 9: I'm gonna try to stay positive. I want to say

174
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 9: one thing and then ask you a question. So all right,

175
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 9: let's it's it's time. We've had enough sample size. It's

176
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 9: time to go ahead and say what McCarthy is. He's

177
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 9: he's outdated as a play caller and I hate to

178
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 9: be the guy to bash the coach. It's a hard job,

179
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:48,079
Speaker 9: but he.

180
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 5: May have used that year off.

181
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,200
Speaker 9: And became less innovative and that and that pains me

182
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:54,839
Speaker 9: to say because we do have a lot of talent.

183
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 9: I mean, this is a top five roster in the NFL,

184
00:08:58,280 --> 00:08:59,959
Speaker 9: and last night we were exposed.

185
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 4: We were listless.

186
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,440
Speaker 9: It was it was a bad performance. And I think

187
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:08,680
Speaker 9: the offense is a reflection the McCarthy's thought process and

188
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 9: how he wants to attack a defense, and it's just

189
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 9: not very good. Yeah, So my question is what can

190
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 9: salvage this season? Is there anything he and Schottenheimer can

191
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 9: do in that system to get this train roll? And

192
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:22,960
Speaker 9: I don't hang up, thank you?

193
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I you're not wrong on on you know,

194
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,440
Speaker 2: with obviously being frustrated, but also just from what it

195
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 2: looks like, it just doesn't look like it was two

196
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,839
Speaker 2: different offenses. When we saw from from the forty nine ers,

197
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 2: I mean they're scheming their guys open in ways. I mean,

198
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,319
Speaker 2: you know, the goal line play when there's no receivers

199
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 2: on the field, it's just you know the full back

200
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,200
Speaker 2: you used check and you know he's wide open. I

201
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,560
Speaker 2: mean it's just you know, the way that they they

202
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,320
Speaker 2: another touchdown that they had to guys kind of going

203
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 2: in the same direction and then one guy peels off

204
00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 2: and kittles wide open. I mean, i mean, how do

205
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:05,080
Speaker 2: you scheme open like Pro bowlers? You know, But but

206
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,680
Speaker 2: they do. They they they've got it figured out, just

207
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:12,480
Speaker 2: the way they go in motion. I mean I told

208
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 2: this to Derek on the game. I mean, it's it's

209
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,719
Speaker 2: it's a borderline false start. I mean, really, I mean,

210
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,080
Speaker 2: that's that's kind of what what it looks like. I mean,

211
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,679
Speaker 2: I'm not saying that that it's against the rules of

212
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 2: just saying the way that they've got their guys going

213
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 2: in motion right before the snap like that, it's just

214
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:29,319
Speaker 2: very innovative. And and they and they were they were

215
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,800
Speaker 2: on pointless you know last night for sure, the Cowboys

216
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:35,080
Speaker 2: were not. And yeah, that what what they're gonna do.

217
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 2: I mean, they're gonna they're gonna get into the lab

218
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:39,960
Speaker 2: and figure it out. I mean, we saw we saw

219
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 2: with the with the push play that the Eagles have perfected.

220
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:46,200
Speaker 2: You know, we saw that in the game like that

221
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 2: actually happened. That was their first first down of the game,

222
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 2: was was actually copying what's done around the league. We'll

223
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:55,199
Speaker 2: do more of that, more copying, figure it, figure out

224
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,679
Speaker 2: what other other people are doing it, and install it,

225
00:10:57,720 --> 00:10:59,080
Speaker 2: get it in and play. I mean, you get a

226
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,839
Speaker 2: long week. I mean I'm not saying you fix it

227
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 2: all in one week, but I mean there are there's different, different,

228
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:10,040
Speaker 2: you know, alterations that they have to do throughout the season.

229
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,319
Speaker 2: And you know, Dak said it the other day that

230
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 2: there's a lot more of this offense that hasn't been revealed. Well,

231
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 2: it's time to start throwing some of that out because

232
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 2: it looked like the forty nine Ers were three steps

233
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 2: ahead of the Cowboys in every single way, especially on

234
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 2: that defense against the offense. Now, I'll say this, the

235
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 2: forty nine Ers can do things on defense that other

236
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 2: teams can't do, really, and it's because of their pass rush.

237
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 2: They have an unbelievable pass rush. They don't have to

238
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,599
Speaker 2: blitz a lot their linebacker. I mean, Fred Warner was

239
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 2: the best player on the field, I thought, and he

240
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 2: has been the last couple of times they faced the Cowboys.

241
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 2: Their secondary doesn't have to be special because they can

242
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 2: play back. They can be a little bit more conservative

243
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 2: because they know that they have a pass rush Er there.

244
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:54,120
Speaker 2: The Cowboys aren't going to see teams like that, you

245
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 2: know that much. But still the difference between what they

246
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,960
Speaker 2: were and what the forty nine was was astronomical. And

247
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,679
Speaker 2: so that's the demoralizing part. Doesn't matter if you're gonna

248
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 2: face teams not as good as that. That was the

249
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,559
Speaker 2: elite and the Cowboys were nowhere close to that. So

250
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 2: to be the team that they want to be, maybe

251
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 2: make it to the even make it to the playoffs,

252
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 2: that's gonna be something that I think that is in

253
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 2: question right now because really, when you think about it,

254
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 2: what is what is this team? How good are they?

255
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:26,280
Speaker 10: Like?

256
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:29,959
Speaker 2: You really don't know are they good at all? I

257
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 2: mean you we just don't know that. I mean, their

258
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 2: wins against the Giants and Patriots are not impressive really,

259
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 2: I mean that, yeah, it was one sided, but those

260
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 2: teams don't look good at all. The Jets, you know,

261
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 2: who knows what the Jets really are right now? It's

262
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 2: hard to kind of figure them out. I guess they

263
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,680
Speaker 2: did win yesterday, but but you know, the Cardinals aren't

264
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,200
Speaker 2: going to be a good team and you couldn't beat them,

265
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,040
Speaker 2: and then of course, you know you had a chance

266
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 2: to kind of send a message and show the world

267
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 2: what kind of team they laid an egg, laid several

268
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 2: of them. All, Right, Travis and san Antonio are next.

269
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 2: Call Travis, and I'm going next.

270
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 3: This is one of those could be better days. Yes,

271
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 3: I mean, it's a long season. Like the other caller said,

272
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 3: there's still a lot of football that be played till

273
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 3: things can change or you know, narratives can change by

274
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 3: the end of the year. But I do I have

275
00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:30,440
Speaker 3: to like gether caller said the same thing, and I've

276
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 3: been I know we're not gonna get you want to

277
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:35,320
Speaker 3: get too much into offseason talk, but I couldn't watch

278
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 3: the game last night and not think, like, I don't

279
00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 3: know why I got there, but I was just thinking

280
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 3: about Dak's agent, and I was just like, if you

281
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,560
Speaker 3: don't get to a Nancy Championship game or change as

282
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,760
Speaker 3: a narrative, there's no way that he can that agent

283
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:52,200
Speaker 3: can walk into Jerry's office and you don't you just

284
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 3: say this is what we want without going really like

285
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 3: this game, I mean, there's there's no there's no way

286
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:02,440
Speaker 3: you can't. And now there's plenty of blame to go around, However,

287
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 3: you just we just know, like the way that it works,

288
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 3: like you're not going to pay that guy sixty million dollars.

289
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 3: It's just not going to happen. And what's worse than that.

290
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,199
Speaker 3: The thing was more disheartening than the injuries and all

291
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 3: that was Mike's comments. I just were like out of

292
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 3: left field. I didn't I didn't understand his comments as

293
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 3: far as he was saying, like we basically were on

294
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 3: par with them, but we just got out played. I

295
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 3: just those comments were actually more of a red flag

296
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 3: to me than anything. So I just want to see

297
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:34,960
Speaker 3: what you thought about this comment.

298
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 2: Ye have a great week, thank you.

299
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:37,480
Speaker 6: You know.

300
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 2: I was kind of bouncing around in the locker room

301
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 2: trying to listen to you know that have four or

302
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,520
Speaker 2: five guys talking at once sometimes and so you know

303
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 2: you I was listening to some I know, we had

304
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 2: another one of our writers in there, but I did

305
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,040
Speaker 2: I heard some things like that, and I also heard

306
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 2: like this is a blessing, you know, game like this

307
00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 2: is a blessing, and I was like, I it felt

308
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 2: like a didn't feel like a blessing. I didn't hear

309
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 2: all of the comments that he was making. I did

310
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 2: read that one though, the one you're talking about about

311
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 2: basically saying that we you know, they they got this one,

312
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 2: but we feel like it's about the same. I mean,

313
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,520
Speaker 2: I think you do that when when you lose an overtime,

314
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 2: you know, and maybe you do that last year in

315
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 2: last year's game. I could see a comment like that

316
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 2: in last year's game. I thought the Cowboys were right

317
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 2: there with them. I thought they had some unfortunate, you know,

318
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 2: bad breaks that happened in the game last year that

319
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 2: you could kind of say that, And it got me

320
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 2: thinking that going into this game, that you know, the

321
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 2: Cowboys were right there. That's why I picked them to win.

322
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 2: I didn't feel great about it, but I picked him

323
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 2: to win because I said, you know what, they were

324
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 2: there last year, they could have won that game. They've

325
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 2: gotten you know, they've done things to make this better

326
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 2: a better football team. But what's happening is is I

327
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 2: don't know if they are better. They don't look better

328
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:58,920
Speaker 2: than they did last year. I mean, this team that

329
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 2: the defense, you know, the defense plays really well, but

330
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 2: you know they can't keep sustaining injuries. I mean, let's

331
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 2: face it, the Trayvon Diggs injury was really it hurts

332
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 2: this team I mean, of course it does. He's a

333
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 2: All pro corner who saw it in a game last night.

334
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 2: When you're going up against a team that has a

335
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 2: lot of weapons, I mean, you have to match them

336
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 2: with the defensive playmakers. And so, yeah, Bland and Gilmore

337
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 2: are good, but I mean they were good for two

338
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 2: and three on your depth chart, not not necessarily one

339
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 2: and two. And so that's that's something that it's not

340
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 2: going to get fixed. I mean, they got to get

341
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 2: better than that. But yeah, I'm just I'm I'm just

342
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 2: not here for the dek talk right now on the

343
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:41,640
Speaker 2: long term. I mean, just because that's not It isn't

344
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 2: long term. It isn't long term unless you're calling me.

345
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 2: If you're gonna call and say, hey, Cooper Rush, it

346
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 2: should start Monday night against the Chargers, then say that.

347
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 2: Because that's kind of where we are. We're still early October.

348
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 2: That's what this is. This is not a January conversation.

349
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 2: And and and because I know how this goes, I'm

350
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 2: not in the question. But if Dak goes out and

351
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 2: plays lights out against against the Chargers or any other game,

352
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,080
Speaker 2: and they win some games and they start, you know,

353
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 2: getting this thing rolling and no one's going to be

354
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,920
Speaker 2: saying that as much. It's like, well maybe they should

355
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 2: do this and this, maybe they'll work with them. I mean,

356
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:16,879
Speaker 2: because we got too much football to go to be

357
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:20,119
Speaker 2: talking about things that aren't gonna be changing right this second.

358
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 2: So I think we need to figure out and focus

359
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:26,680
Speaker 2: on the stuff that could be changing, all right, Fernando

360
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 2: in Miami. Fernando, next caller, and.

361
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:31,880
Speaker 5: Thank you for taking my call.

362
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 6: I think I know what could change everything here.

363
00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:38,280
Speaker 5: I'm fifty eight years old. I've been watching the Cowboys.

364
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:40,200
Speaker 5: I think my first time with the Cowboys was in

365
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 5: seventy five. I got through the eighties, the nineties, and

366
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 5: now I think what's killing us in the red zone

367
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:50,679
Speaker 5: during the game. This thing that we draft tackles and

368
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:52,680
Speaker 5: we try to turn them in the guards. You've got

369
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:56,479
Speaker 5: Tyler Smith who's blocking guys that are two forty two fifty.

370
00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,440
Speaker 5: He's a tackle and he's doing the pancakes on them.

371
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 5: Were like, oh this, I could do this. Dougle block

372
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 5: a Sue you know who's three point thirty, and he

373
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:08,600
Speaker 5: can't do it. And that's the thing they can't have

374
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 5: seen Richards all the time him that guard. When you're

375
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 5: a guard, you're a guard, when you're a tackle, you're

376
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 5: a tackle. It's different Bobby types. You got to be

377
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 5: able to move your feet. I think that's why we're

378
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 5: not blowing holes open. We can't get in the red zone.

379
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:27,919
Speaker 5: We're having problems. It's turned changing players, you know, to

380
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 5: do that. I mean, I think it's horrible. Draft the

381
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:34,120
Speaker 5: guard and draft the tackle. They did that in the nineties.

382
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 5: They didn't get Eric Williams and try to make him

383
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 5: a guard. You know, it was your tackle, your tackle,

384
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 5: your a guard, your a guard. The backups were guard

385
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:45,399
Speaker 5: and the backups were tackles. It wasn't this flip flop

386
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 5: thing they got going. Now, that's why they can't run

387
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 5: the ball. And that's it. What do you think.

388
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 2: I don't necessarily agree with that part about I mean,

389
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,200
Speaker 2: I mean comparing him to the nineties, I mean, Nate

390
00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:00,159
Speaker 2: Newton was a tackle. They made him a guard to

391
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 2: Larry Allen as a tackle and he's a guard. I mean,

392
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 2: I think if you could block, you can block. I mean,

393
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,439
Speaker 2: I really do. I there is more to it than that.

394
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:09,160
Speaker 2: I'm not just saying. I mean, there's a reason why

395
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,240
Speaker 2: Zach Martin doesn't want to play tackle. He wants to

396
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 2: play guard. I mean it's not the same position. I

397
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 2: understand that, but I don't look at this game. I

398
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 2: don't look at the game and go, man, they need

399
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 2: to move Tyler Smith out to tackle. You know, he's

400
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 2: not getting it down again. There's just not enough fingers

401
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 2: to go around. That offensive line though, wasn't. I mean,

402
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,199
Speaker 2: it wasn't blocking. I mean, there's no doubt about it.

403
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,639
Speaker 2: I mean, the offensive line, it didn't. It wasn't what

404
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:35,560
Speaker 2: we were hoping for. When we're like, oh, we got

405
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:37,920
Speaker 2: these five guys, they're all back, they're ready to go.

406
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 2: It certainly wasn't what they expected. I can't go with

407
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 2: you there on just the Tyler Smith part. I think

408
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:52,200
Speaker 2: he's been really good at guard this season. He wasn't.

409
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,440
Speaker 2: I haven't looked at the tape to go. He wasn't good.

410
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:59,120
Speaker 2: But nobody was. I mean, nobody was moving the ball. No, nobody,

411
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 2: nobody blocked, nobody ran well. They I mean Dak didn't

412
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:05,400
Speaker 2: have a good game at all. Dak did not play well.

413
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 2: He knows that. He said that the receivers weren't getting open.

414
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 2: Just you can go down the line. I mean, I'll

415
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:12,439
Speaker 2: be I'll be done. With the show. If I go

416
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 2: through every single person out there, you know, it just

417
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 2: it was. It was as bad as it gets. It

418
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,360
Speaker 2: was as bad as it gets. And the forty nine

419
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 2: ers were just flawless, and the Cowboys just couldn't do

420
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,920
Speaker 2: anything right. And you add that up and you get

421
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 2: you get a forty two to ten blowout win like

422
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 2: like they got. All right, got a couple of questions

423
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 2: here text questions. This is JD from North Carolina. Was

424
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 2: there an injury to Decks throwing hands? TV suggested there

425
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:42,160
Speaker 2: was one. I think he got a cut on his

426
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 2: middle finger and gets what it was. I mean, he

427
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,600
Speaker 2: dismissed it afterwards, he said, you know the touchdown, the

428
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:52,359
Speaker 2: touchdown came after that, you know, so you know, I

429
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:56,120
Speaker 2: mean that that was I don't think it mattered too much.

430
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:58,960
Speaker 2: I mean, certainly when you're holding the football and you

431
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 2: don't want to have tape on there, But I don't

432
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:04,240
Speaker 2: I don't think it affected too many things. He's he didn't.

433
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:07,640
Speaker 2: He didn't say that. He downplayed that for sure. All right,

434
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 2: Let's go back to the line. Brian in Kansas City. Brian,

435
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 2: You're next.

436
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:17,879
Speaker 4: Good morning, Nick, Good morning, Brian. Well, you know to

437
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:22,160
Speaker 4: borrow from the old Belichick line, We're onto the Chargers.

438
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:24,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you.

439
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:28,159
Speaker 4: Know, the the last caller. I do agree that we

440
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 4: I have one hundred percent all night thought we lost

441
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,480
Speaker 4: the game in the trenches. And that's I'm an older guy.

442
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 4: I'm fifty six. I've been watching the Cowboys forever, and

443
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 4: I'm kind of the Parcels era, you know, everything is

444
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:45,159
Speaker 4: one and lost in the trenches kind of thinking. And

445
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,879
Speaker 4: I one hundred percent thought we lost the game in

446
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:53,480
Speaker 4: the trenches. At no point did our defensive line look intimidating,

447
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 4: and our offensive line just just looked out of shrink.

448
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:00,399
Speaker 4: So that was my thoughts while I was with the

449
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,200
Speaker 4: last guy. So, you know, here's where I'm at with

450
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:07,240
Speaker 4: with with what's going on now. Is very quickly after

451
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 4: having two really surprisingly bad losses to you know, you know,

452
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,400
Speaker 4: the Niners, not that we could lose to them, but

453
00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,720
Speaker 4: in the way we did, and just losing the Arizona period,

454
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:25,200
Speaker 4: I think we're gonna hear a lot of this person's

455
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,840
Speaker 4: on the hot seat, whoever it is, you know, whether

456
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:31,400
Speaker 4: it's McCarthy, dak right, you know, the people that get

457
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 4: to blame when when, when these things happen and you know,

458
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:39,399
Speaker 4: they they can respond and you know, pull out with

459
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 4: a couple of good games and maybe that'll quiet it.

460
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 4: But I think that's kind of where we're at right now,

461
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 4: and you hope for the best, but you know that's

462
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 4: that they put on some the tape from these two

463
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 4: games that they lost was just awful, and uh, you know,

464
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:57,720
Speaker 4: we'll we'll try to clean it up, come back on

465
00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 4: Monday night and see what we can do and not overreact.

466
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 4: I lived through the eighty nine season and that was

467
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,400
Speaker 4: as bad as it gets. So yeah, anyway, as those

468
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,680
Speaker 4: are my thoughts, brother, I hope you have a good leak.

469
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 4: Thanks for taking the call.

470
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 2: Man, Thank you Brian, you know, and let's let me

471
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:16,040
Speaker 2: go back to the last caller as well. Though. I mean, like,

472
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:18,639
Speaker 2: I don't disagree with you about the offensive line and

473
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:20,719
Speaker 2: the and and getting beat in the trenches. I mean,

474
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,840
Speaker 2: that's not what I'm saying. I'm not trying to dismiss

475
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:27,399
Speaker 2: what you're saying about about the you know, needing to

476
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 2: make a change there. And it starts, it starts, you know,

477
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 2: in the line. I mean, because they did not they

478
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,119
Speaker 2: did not block up front. The running game is was

479
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 2: non existent, you know, Tony Pollard. He does look the

480
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:44,719
Speaker 2: same as as you know. And and this is not

481
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,359
Speaker 2: a surprise. It should not be a surprise because I

482
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 2: mean I heard Skip Peete, the former running backs coach,

483
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 2: say this multiple times in the last two years, like

484
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 2: it's not it's it needs to be Zeke and then Pollard.

485
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:02,120
Speaker 2: It's not just a it's not I mean, Pollard will

486
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 2: not be as effective if you make him the lead

487
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 2: running back. That's what That's what he said over and over,

488
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:09,800
Speaker 2: and we're kind of seeing it now. I mean, he

489
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 2: it's it's different when you're taking all of the hits

490
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,080
Speaker 2: and not just the hits with the ball, but having

491
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,639
Speaker 2: to step up and block and do those things. I

492
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:19,919
Speaker 2: mean it's a wear and tear on your body that

493
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 2: his body just doesn't look like it would hold up.

494
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:25,879
Speaker 2: And he's never been that guy. Even in high school.

495
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,600
Speaker 2: He split carries. He split carries at Memphis, he split carries,

496
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 2: you know, early in his career here. So it's uh,

497
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,880
Speaker 2: he you know, he he probably needs to split more carries.

498
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,120
Speaker 2: But but the running, the holes really weren't there, even

499
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 2: the ones that Rico Daldle was trying to run through.

500
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:43,120
Speaker 2: I mean, like he was running through people, and and

501
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 2: there's just they're just not schemed up and have these

502
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:49,919
Speaker 2: wide open, gaping holes. It's not it's not there. And

503
00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:53,000
Speaker 2: so the offense when when the changes, you know, this week,

504
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,680
Speaker 2: when they're trying to correct things, offensive line's got to

505
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,160
Speaker 2: be right there. Uh with everything else. All right, let's

506
00:24:58,160 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 2: take a break real quick. We'll come right back on

507
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:01,960
Speaker 2: Boy storyline. I do have a couple of callers already

508
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:05,880
Speaker 2: on the line. We'll be right back here. Cowboy storyline.

509
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:07,639
Speaker 11: Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the

510
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,640
Speaker 11: cheetah Savannah. Todd believed the big cat repellent he bought

511
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 11: online was reliable. And now Todd is trying to be

512
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 11: faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per hour.

513
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:18,600
Speaker 11: But the good news is Todd has AT and T

514
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,399
Speaker 11: five G. It is fast, reliable, and secure, and he

515
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:23,680
Speaker 11: learned the best thing to do is stop running and

516
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:26,359
Speaker 11: toss her the backpack with the beef stew At and

517
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 11: T five G. Fast, reliable, secure, It's not complicated.

518

Speaker 2: voices of the of the callers. Uh. And that was

560
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:25,040
Speaker 2: a tough one. You know, I appreciate you guys calling though.

561
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 2: I appreciate you guys trying to figure this out. You know,

562
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:32,359
Speaker 2: it's it's not easy those You know, I did not

563
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,760
Speaker 2: expect to be done with my column at the end

564
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,120
Speaker 2: of the game last night. I thought, you know, usually

565
00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:39,879
Speaker 2: it was gonna be one of those last second things

566
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:42,359
Speaker 2: right on the plane and all that, but felt like

567
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 2: a preseason game from the standpoint of being able to

568
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:48,400
Speaker 2: be finished because it didn't take long to really get

569
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 2: the story of the game. And the forty nine ers

570
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 2: just just outclassed them in every way. I mean, they

571
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 2: just were so so much better. And you know, it's

572
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 2: back to the drawing board. I mean it should be

573
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,440
Speaker 2: at least to try to figure out how to fix

574
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:06,359
Speaker 2: this issue, all right. I mean before we go to

575
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 2: the calls, I do have a couple of text questions

576
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,160
Speaker 2: nine to one five area code. It says, does moving

577
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,479
Speaker 2: the pocket help Dak in the offense? Maybe getting more

578
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 2: play action in the game plan? But you know, the

579
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 2: play action works when you run. I mean like when

580
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,359
Speaker 2: you could run the ball and then the teams are

581
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:25,880
Speaker 2: kind of worried about your run and then they suck

582
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:29,120
Speaker 2: down you know, the safety's and linebackers to make sure

583
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:31,160
Speaker 2: and stop that, and that's where you go play action

584
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 2: if you're not running the football and not worried about

585
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:35,720
Speaker 2: your playfakes. There was times in the game where I

586
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 2: thought Dak is over here faking too long, like like

587
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,800
Speaker 2: start of throwing it, because both says like right, behind you, like,

588
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 2: what do you Why are you, you know, still trying

589
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 2: to run a fake when the running backs not even

590
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 2: not even there anymore? And so I think that that

591
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 2: part needs to get cleaned up. But I mean it

592
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 2: does start with running the football, all right. Next caller,

593
00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 2: Rob in Vegas. Rob, what's up?

594
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 11: Okay?

595
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:00,880
Speaker 16: Nick?

596
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:04,760
Speaker 17: Hey, So let's talk about Cooper Rush because I think

597
00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:09,800
Speaker 17: he's a better fit for this offense. You know the

598
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 17: thing that we kept saying what separates them as well?

599
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 17: Dak is much more mobile, No, he's not. That doesn't

600
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 17: move anymore, that doesn't run. I think Cooper Rush would

601
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,480
Speaker 17: be better mentally for this offense. And I think he

602
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 17: has a better arm. I mean, you're asking Dak to

603
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 17: be a game manager. He used to be an athletic quarterback,

604
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 17: and he regrets he looks like a shot fighter. I

605
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:37,040
Speaker 17: mean he totally went back to the old dack when

606
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:39,480
Speaker 17: the heat was on, just throwing the ball up. Three

607
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,440
Speaker 17: picks and they weren't even you know, sometimes I give

608
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,840
Speaker 17: the quarter you know that's not on the quarterback. Those

609
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 17: are bad picks. So I think Cooper Rush would be

610
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 17: a better fit. He was a great game manager last

611
00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 17: year and he went I believe for in one so

612
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:55,680
Speaker 17: but they're not going to do that, of course, because

613
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:59,479
Speaker 17: they're paying Dak way too much money. But I do

614
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 17: think Cooper Rush would be a better fit. And I

615
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 17: think McCarty has no confidence and that that's why he

616
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 17: calls the game the way he does. And I got

617
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 17: to tell you the guy that i'd lost a lot

618
00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:15,560
Speaker 17: of You know, Micah Parsons, what do you do in

619
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 17: exchanging jerseys at the end of the game when you

620
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:23,400
Speaker 17: just got killed forty two to ten. And those comparisons

621
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 17: to LT, they need to stop right now, because the

622
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:33,200
Speaker 17: difference is LT played the run, the pass, He played everything,

623
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:35,600
Speaker 17: and he would build his players up. If you watched

624
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:39,720
Speaker 17: Michael Parsis yesterday, he was disinterested after the first quarter.

625
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,440
Speaker 17: It's like if he's not getting to the quarterback and

626
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:44,840
Speaker 17: he's not trolling on the ground, he doesn't want to

627
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:47,360
Speaker 17: do any of that other stuff. He doesn't want to

628
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 17: play the run, he doesn't want to get beat up.

629
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 17: And I understand he's too small, so they've either got

630
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,080
Speaker 17: to play him at linebacker. Well, he's got to gain.

631
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 5: Thirty pounds if he's going to be on the line.

632
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,440
Speaker 17: But doing this to him right now, because I'm sure

633
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,040
Speaker 17: next week they're going to do the same thing. They're

634
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 17: going to run right at him. If Cardinals ran right

635
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 17: at them, and that's what teams are gonna do, they're

636
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:09,320
Speaker 17: not gonna let him chase them down. So the Cowboys

637
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 17: need to figure out what they're going to do with

638
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 17: my put But he needs to he needs to grow

639
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,959
Speaker 17: up and stop with the podcast and the exchange of jerseys. Bro,

640
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 17: he just got dominated in front of millions of people.

641
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:22,800
Speaker 16: Yeah, she'll supplied.

642
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, let's thanks for the call the jersey thing.

643
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 2: Let's let's not just single him out. Okay, Luke schoom

644
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:31,560
Speaker 2: Maker was walking off with a red jersey hanging off

645
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 2: his shoulder. They all do it, Okay, they all do it.

646
00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:37,880
Speaker 2: And I don't necessarily understand it or agree with it.

647
00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:40,360
Speaker 2: I feel like, if you you can, you know, you

648
00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:43,400
Speaker 2: can get jerseys. You guys get jerseys all the time.

649
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:45,480
Speaker 2: You guys get jerseys in different ways. I don't know

650
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,200
Speaker 2: why it has to be right then in the game,

651
00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 2: and and that's just that's just the nature of it.

652
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:56,840
Speaker 2: If fans actually saw and knew how things went like

653
00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,720
Speaker 2: after the game and on the plane and stuff like that,

654
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:01,600
Speaker 2: they you know there would be a lot of guys

655
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,840
Speaker 2: even more upset than than what it is because the

656
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 2: players are built differently when it comes to that. So

657
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,800
Speaker 2: I don't necessarily agree with it. I think it looks bad.

658
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:14,400
Speaker 2: I think it's a terrible look. I saw it against

659
00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:18,719
Speaker 2: Arizona when Chumanidoga did not have a good game at

660
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 2: all and walking off with the red jersey, and you

661
00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 2: just kind of you know, it's it's different, But that's

662
00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 2: that's that's a players are built differently that way. He

663
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 2: can't get into into the mind of that. So I'm

664
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 2: not gonna I'm not gonna single out anybody because that's

665
00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 2: how a lot of them are. Micah, though, I mean

666
00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,640
Speaker 2: he I don't care about the podcast. I don't care

667
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 2: about all that stuff. I mean, he's got to play

668
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 2: better though that. He's got to play better. He he

669
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 2: can't sit there and talk about wanting to be Why

670
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:52,480
Speaker 2: is you know why he's not getting mentioned for MVP

671
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 2: instead of Defensive Player of the Year. I mean he's

672
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:56,800
Speaker 2: talked about that kind of stuff. I mean, the Defensive

673
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:58,440
Speaker 2: Player of the Year might have been playing last night.

674
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:00,440
Speaker 2: I mean there's no doubt about it. I mean Fred

675
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 2: Warner was was on block unblockable. I mean, he he

676
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:08,720
Speaker 2: set the tone. He reminded me of Troy Polamalu back

677
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:12,160
Speaker 2: in the day when he was just everywhere he was running,

678
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:15,880
Speaker 2: he was top of the runs path everything. But but

679
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 2: to go back to the main thing that that that

680
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:21,280
Speaker 2: Rob said was Cooper Rush, you know, and that's and

681
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,640
Speaker 2: that's the thing. If you're gonna if you're gonna come

682
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:26,800
Speaker 2: in and talk about Dak, I mean, that's that's the option.

683
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:28,840
Speaker 2: If you want to say that, I'll put you down.

684
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 2: I'll write you down for that. I don't think they're

685
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:34,360
Speaker 2: gonna make that change, but that's you know, that's what

686
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 2: what would have to happen, is they're going to have

687
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:38,720
Speaker 2: to go and and and put in a different quarterback

688
00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:40,400
Speaker 2: in and I don't know if it would be Cooper Rush.

689
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 2: I don't know if it would be Trey Lance. I

690
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,480
Speaker 2: don't think they're ready to make that that move. I

691
00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 2: think you need to see some uh consistency in a

692
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:51,480
Speaker 2: bad way of of of this being more of a

693
00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 2: pattern to to make that change. But but but certainly,

694
00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:58,880
Speaker 2: you know, and I think before McCarthy starts pulling, you know,

695
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,160
Speaker 2: the quarterback and that I think that they need to

696
00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:04,920
Speaker 2: fix the offense as well, like fix the play call

697
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 2: change that up. You might see that change. Maybe maybe

698
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,959
Speaker 2: you see a change in play callers. Something's got to happen.

699
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 12: Though.

700
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 2: You can't just get beat forty two to ten in

701
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:17,000
Speaker 2: in the biggest early test of the season and say, well,

702
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,880
Speaker 2: you know, we'll do better next week. I mean better better,

703
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:22,880
Speaker 2: we'll we'll we'll get you beat by twenty Okay, I

704
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:24,880
Speaker 2: mean you got beat by thirty two. It needs to

705
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 2: be appreciably better. It needs to be there needs to

706
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,719
Speaker 2: be some changes here. I think the bye week is

707
00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 2: going to come at the right time. Maybe maybe the

708
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:36,880
Speaker 2: Cowboys can can do some of those big changes in

709
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 2: that time. All right, Andrew and in Colorado, Andrew, what's up?

710
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 7: Hey, Good morning, Nick, One time listener, first time caller.

711
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 7: I've always kind of been a you know, Dak apologist.

712
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:52,319
Speaker 7: I heard Nick Harrison on Talking Cowboys this morning, and

713
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:54,880
Speaker 7: you know, I am kind of agreeing with him or

714
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 7: on mindset is kind of changing in regards to kan

715
00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:02,399
Speaker 7: Dak actually do this. However, I don't think they set

716
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:05,440
Speaker 7: him up for success last night, and my observation being.

717
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 5: You gotta get back on the move.

718
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:11,320
Speaker 7: But with the play call. I think he was staying

719
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:13,600
Speaker 7: alongside the hugging the line of scrimmage, you know, trying

720
00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:16,759
Speaker 7: to make that play look downfield other stuff. Just just

721
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:19,959
Speaker 7: take a run, take three, take four, you know, keep

722
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:23,279
Speaker 7: those down the distance and manage all positions. Because I

723
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:26,000
Speaker 7: also hear from other folks on other shows too, saying

724
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:29,000
Speaker 7: like this whole West Coast offense is predicated on short yardage,

725
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:31,480
Speaker 7: So keep it short. You know, take what the defense

726
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:35,360
Speaker 7: gives you, you know, get those first down opportunities.

727
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:35,919
Speaker 4: And keep the ball moving.

728
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:39,840
Speaker 7: I see other quarterbacks across the league do it, you know, run,

729
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:41,680
Speaker 7: take what they get, and then keep the down and

730
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:45,640
Speaker 7: distance short. Right, And then my question to you is

731
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 7: this feels very very similar to twenty eighteen when the

732
00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:54,520
Speaker 7: Cowboys traded for Amari Cooper. Not because we're in lack

733
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 7: of hacking game right now, but just we need to

734
00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:59,440
Speaker 7: splash change something up with the pieces that we have

735
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,040
Speaker 7: currently on the defensive side of the ball. Even though

736
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:05,080
Speaker 7: we're missing Trayvon Diggs, we still got talent. Does that

737
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:06,960
Speaker 7: feel like were there quite yet?

738
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:07,319
Speaker 13: Could be?

739
00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:09,160
Speaker 7: They be there soon? Maybe during the bye week.

740
00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:09,799
Speaker 16: What do you think?

741
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 6: Thanks?

742
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 2: Thank you? You know, I mean they're always gonna gonna

743
00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:16,480
Speaker 2: say that. They'll they'll be looking for trades or looking

744
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:18,640
Speaker 2: for you know, to try to help the team, and

745
00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:21,480
Speaker 2: and so they'll have their eyes open for for situations

746
00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:25,560
Speaker 2: like that. I'd be careful doing that though, just because

747
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 2: it needs you know, if you're going to do a trade,

748
00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:30,960
Speaker 2: you need to trade for someone that is going to

749
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:32,840
Speaker 2: be a part of this team for a while, because

750
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:36,680
Speaker 2: you know, that's what happened. They traded for a Maari Cooper.

751
00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:39,239
Speaker 2: But they you know, they they they kept saying, well,

752
00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 2: he's twenty four years old, so he's going to be here.

753
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,400
Speaker 2: But he was only here for what three three seasons

754
00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:46,759
Speaker 2: or so, So you've got to make sure that, you know,

755
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:49,040
Speaker 2: you have a lot of holes to fill. Uh, you

756
00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:52,000
Speaker 2: got to keep getting better, and so you're going to

757
00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:54,400
Speaker 2: have to probably trade, you know, a draft picker or

758
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:57,800
Speaker 2: to to get somebody like a splash that you say,

759
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:01,719
Speaker 2: you don't your other part of the call about you

760
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:06,000
Speaker 2: know this offense Texas Coast keeping it short, you know

761
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:08,760
Speaker 2: against the forty nine ers, you've got to have guys

762
00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:13,440
Speaker 2: that can break tackles though, because three yard passes have

763
00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,560
Speaker 2: to go, I mean it has to go. Get ten yards.

764
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:19,239
Speaker 2: You can't just throw it three yards and just and

765
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 2: get tackled at the line of scrip, tackled right there

766
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:24,279
Speaker 2: on the spot and expect to do anything. And a

767
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:26,880
Speaker 2: big example to that was the one that one of

768
00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:29,840
Speaker 2: the previous callers talked about the fourth and two before halftime,

769
00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:32,600
Speaker 2: at the two minute warning, where the Cowboys decided not

770
00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:34,799
Speaker 2: to go for it. Well before that, it was third

771
00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 2: and five or third and six, and Dak threw underneath

772
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,719
Speaker 2: to Ferguson. You know, he kind of rushed it and

773
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:44,160
Speaker 2: he threw it underneath. Ferguson caught it, was caught, was

774
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:47,920
Speaker 2: tackled immediately, and you know, they're not throwing it at

775
00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:52,919
Speaker 2: the sticks. And so that play call to me suggested that, okay,

776
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:54,239
Speaker 2: you're going to try to get a little bit so

777
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:56,319
Speaker 2: you could have a more manageable fourth down, but then

778
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:58,720
Speaker 2: when you go and punt, it doesn't make any sense

779
00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:04,200
Speaker 2: at all. So they they are lacking some playmakers and

780
00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:06,120
Speaker 2: and I thought that that was going to be something

781
00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:08,680
Speaker 2: that would be addressed from last year, but that was

782
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 2: a huge difference in the game that they had. They

783
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 2: don't have the type of playmakers that that they they

784
00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:18,359
Speaker 2: need to compete in a game like that, to help

785
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:21,840
Speaker 2: your quarterback throw the ball, turn around, make some plays.

786
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:24,120
Speaker 2: I mean, the way that this offense is designed and

787
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:27,879
Speaker 2: the way Dak is playing, he definitely needs more help

788
00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:31,120
Speaker 2: and he's not getting it. So it's a big problem.

789
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:32,960
Speaker 2: I mean, it seems like a chicken and egg type

790
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,520
Speaker 2: of thing. Really, is it? Is it the playmakers? Is

791
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:37,759
Speaker 2: it Dak? Is it the play calling? Is it? Is

792
00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,680
Speaker 2: it both? I mean, it's it's there's a lot going

793
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:44,920
Speaker 2: on here, all right, Ronnie in New Jersey? Is that right, Ronnie?

794
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:48,120
Speaker 2: I'm good, Thanks for calling.

795
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:53,080
Speaker 16: Uh no, thank you, Nick. First thing I called last

796
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:57,399
Speaker 16: week and asked Darren Woodson about the office line, how

797
00:38:57,440 --> 00:39:00,439
Speaker 16: to be how to have that mentality, and he said,

798
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:04,120
Speaker 16: Tyron Smith. I believe Tyron Smith played well last night.

799
00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:07,360
Speaker 16: I saw him play and he played well. Now, Tyler,

800
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:11,440
Speaker 16: he got beat on one play, like everybody's calling and saying, oh, Tyler,

801
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:12,360
Speaker 16: you know, gotta.

802
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:14,279
Speaker 6: Make a guard and guard and tackle a tackle.

803
00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:18,840
Speaker 16: No, man, Tyler had one bad play. Now the other tackle.

804
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 16: He got beat a few times. But the old line,

805
00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:23,520
Speaker 16: from what I heard, this was the first week they've

806
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:28,399
Speaker 16: been together in two years. Two years. So with that,

807
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:30,879
Speaker 16: the more they play together, the better they're going to get.

808
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:36,600
Speaker 16: But Dak, Dak, I don't agree with you when he

809
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:39,480
Speaker 16: said that if he comes out and plays lights out

810
00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:42,919
Speaker 16: for the next few weeks and has great games, we're

811
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:46,320
Speaker 16: all on the bandwagon again. I don't believe it, because

812
00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:51,200
Speaker 16: all year he just hasn't been He's been throwing bad throws.

813
00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:53,719
Speaker 16: He's been lucky that they haven't been catching the ball.

814
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:56,319
Speaker 16: The other teams they just have. They dropped the ball

815
00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:59,080
Speaker 16: a few times. He's been making the same mistakes that

816
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:03,760
Speaker 16: the forty Imus always seemed to expose him on. That's

817
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:07,799
Speaker 16: that's my opinion. Dak is who he is now, playmakers.

818
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:10,319
Speaker 16: That's what you said we had, I mean, everybody said

819
00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 16: we have when we got uh the wide receiver. They're

820
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:15,840
Speaker 16: just not using him the right way. They're not using

821
00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:18,359
Speaker 16: this whole offense the right way. That's what I see.

822
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:22,839
Speaker 2: What do you think, well, I mean, thanks for the call.

823
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:26,359
Speaker 2: I mean, uh yeah, I don't know if if they're

824
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:31,400
Speaker 2: if they're getting open, you know, and the right way.

825
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,400
Speaker 2: But but there are some throws that that the Cowboys

826
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:36,759
Speaker 2: just don't make. I mean that that Dak doesn't make,

827
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:40,520
Speaker 2: that they don't call. You know, you watch the game

828
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:42,440
Speaker 2: and you see what perty see some of the plays

829
00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:45,440
Speaker 2: that pretty throws, you know, deep deep crossing routes over

830
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:49,120
Speaker 2: the middle. That's not this offense. And maybe it would

831
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:52,200
Speaker 2: be with a different quarterback. I don't know that. All

832
00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:54,760
Speaker 2: I'm saying is is that they those are certain throws

833
00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:58,400
Speaker 2: they don't they don't even attempt. But you know, like

834
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:01,600
Speaker 2: Cooks was here so he can be, you know, a

835
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,160
Speaker 2: speed guy, and here he is. I mean, they get

836
00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:07,600
Speaker 2: him on a mismatch with Fred Warner who's doing everything,

837
00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:10,200
Speaker 2: but he can't run with Brandon Cooks, and Cooks runs

838
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:12,960
Speaker 2: right by him and Dak throws it to the cheerleaders.

839
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 2: I mean, like that's that. That was a huge moment

840
00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:17,799
Speaker 2: in the game. Is one of my five plays that

841
00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:20,799
Speaker 2: I that I pointed out is that you finally you

842
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:23,440
Speaker 2: schemed it up where you could get your guy on

843
00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:26,680
Speaker 2: there on a linebacker and he's running free down the

844
00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:29,719
Speaker 2: field and you don't even give him a chance. That

845
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:32,919
Speaker 2: one was huge. There's fifty three yards of field and

846
00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:35,080
Speaker 2: and and you don't give them any of that and

847
00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:36,759
Speaker 2: you throw it out of bounds. I thought that one

848
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:41,239
Speaker 2: was a huge miss, miss opportunity in the game for Dak.

849
00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:44,759
Speaker 2: But I mean my point is is that is that

850
00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:48,440
Speaker 2: I don't think that you're gonna be sitting here talking

851
00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:51,319
Speaker 2: about contract if he if he does play well, if

852
00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:53,440
Speaker 2: he if he plays like we've seen him play like,

853
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:56,400
Speaker 2: it's don't act like he doesn't play well, like like

854
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:59,840
Speaker 2: like he hasn't had these moments. So my point is

855
00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:02,280
Speaker 2: that there's a lot of season left, a lot of seasons.

856
00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:04,719
Speaker 2: There's twelve games to go, and so what we think

857
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:06,719
Speaker 2: things are going to be right now, It's going to

858
00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:09,200
Speaker 2: be different. It's going to be different later on in

859
00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:11,600
Speaker 2: the year. Let's let it play out. There's no reason

860
00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 2: to sit here and talk about contracts at this moment.

861
00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:16,720
Speaker 2: If you're going to talk about changing the quarterback, then fine,

862
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:19,200
Speaker 2: say that, which one of the callers did. But I

863
00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:22,040
Speaker 2: I as for like how things are going to be

864
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 2: in January, I just don't think we're there for that.

865
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:27,120
Speaker 2: All right, Blake in Phoenix, Blake, what's up?

866
00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:28,439
Speaker 5: Hi?

867
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:31,800
Speaker 10: This might be a little repeat after the last few callers,

868
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:34,799
Speaker 10: That's all right, But uh yeah, but I was just

869
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:36,799
Speaker 10: going to see what you've thought about the situation, just

870
00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:40,239
Speaker 10: because it's in three years of being decent but not

871
00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:40,879
Speaker 10: good enough.

872
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:41,600
Speaker 7: Man, last year.

873
00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:43,880
Speaker 10: I know, the statistics were good on paper, but then

874
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:46,240
Speaker 10: you go to the game and it's a completely different story.

875
00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:49,600
Speaker 10: You know, we've changed the offensive coordinator. You know, we've

876
00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:52,719
Speaker 10: put a bunch of talents. He's gone now to you know,

877
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:55,759
Speaker 10: we're supposed to have two a decent running back, but rotation, right,

878
00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:58,840
Speaker 10: and then it's like we still are not able to

879
00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:03,040
Speaker 10: be these like top ten mean and so it was curious, like,

880
00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:08,440
Speaker 10: like how you think that reflects Dac and just his

881
00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:11,400
Speaker 10: do you think his play style fits the West Coast

882
00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:12,120
Speaker 10: kind of scheme?

883
00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:17,440
Speaker 2: I guess, yeah, that's a that's a tough question to

884
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:21,600
Speaker 2: answer right now, you know, because it's still you know,

885
00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:24,759
Speaker 2: it's still early enough in this season where it's kind

886
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:28,200
Speaker 2: of it's it's just tough to figure out what what

887
00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 2: his style is compared to what it's been in the past.

888
00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:34,520
Speaker 2: I mean, I I don't. I don't have a great

889
00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 2: answer for you. I really don't. I mean, I know

890
00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:40,239
Speaker 2: this offense is struggling. It's struggling to move the ball.

891
00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:43,960
Speaker 2: You know, you can you can blame every area. Uh,

892
00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:47,640
Speaker 2: you can blame that, the receivers, the runners, the offensive line,

893
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:52,279
Speaker 2: Dak tight ends, you know, like they they they just

894
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:56,520
Speaker 2: don't seem to have anything that they can just kind

895
00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 2: of lean on and and and when it comes to

896
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:01,520
Speaker 2: the offen and I know that was a question that

897
00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:03,720
Speaker 2: was asked in the locker room a couple of times

898
00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:07,880
Speaker 2: about offensive identity, what's the identity and all that, and uh,

899
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:11,640
Speaker 2: you know, it's just they just don't have something that

900
00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:14,760
Speaker 2: you can say, all right, get the ball to Pollard

901
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:17,240
Speaker 2: and let him do his thing, or get the ball,

902
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:20,480
Speaker 2: get Dak on the move, or you know, like what

903
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:23,360
Speaker 2: is it? And that was going back to the callers

904
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:25,840
Speaker 2: before about fourth and two. They just don't have a

905
00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:27,239
Speaker 2: play for it. You know, they didn't have a play

906
00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:29,080
Speaker 2: for it. And that that right there kind of shows

907
00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:31,760
Speaker 2: that you know, it's it was. It was an uphill

908
00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:33,759
Speaker 2: battle for sure. All right, let me get one more

909
00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:36,959
Speaker 2: caller in and we'll finish the show. Sam and Philly. Sam,

910
00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:37,560
Speaker 2: what's up? Man?

911
00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:40,719
Speaker 5: You there?

912
00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:49,279
Speaker 2: Nope? Hanging up? That's okay? Hello, Hey Sam? Hey Sam?

913
00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:50,479
Speaker 6: Man.

914
00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:53,120
Speaker 16: Yeah, I don't know what all this like, what all

915
00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:54,040
Speaker 16: this talk is about?

916
00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:56,160
Speaker 4: That this is what Dak was was gonna be. Dude.

917
00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:57,640
Speaker 4: He was drafted in the fourth round.

918
00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:00,360
Speaker 5: His best attribute was supposed to be running the ball.

919
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:02,080
Speaker 16: That's how he got to the NFL.

920
00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:03,040
Speaker 18: Nobody wanted him.

921
00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:04,960
Speaker 4: In the first three rounds. This is why.

922
00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:08,000
Speaker 18: And now we're saying because he doesn't run anymore. He

923
00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:09,040
Speaker 18: snapped his ankle.

924
00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:12,239
Speaker 4: He doesn't do that anymore. So this is what you get.

925
00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:15,600
Speaker 18: Now you can change everything around. They've been changing things

926
00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:18,239
Speaker 18: around him this whole time, and still the same thing.

927
00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:20,719
Speaker 18: He doesn't get rid of the ball fast enough and

928
00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:22,640
Speaker 18: he doesn't know what he doesn't know what he's looking at.

929
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:24,400
Speaker 18: That's what it looks like on TV. It looks like

930
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:25,440
Speaker 18: he doesn't know what he's looking at.

931
00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:28,960
Speaker 4: So it's frustrating.

932
00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:32,040
Speaker 18: They need to start looking for a new quarterback. I'm

933
00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:36,479
Speaker 18: sorry to say that through the defense got deflated. They're

934
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:38,920
Speaker 18: on the field all night. You're the first like two

935
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,160
Speaker 18: quarters on the field all night. They can't get a

936
00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:44,640
Speaker 18: first down. And they're an emotional defense. There are a

937
00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:47,480
Speaker 18: bunch of emotional guys on defense. If they see that

938
00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:50,879
Speaker 18: things aren't going right, they shut down too. And that's

939
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:53,359
Speaker 18: a problem too. But I'll hang up and listen.

940
00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:58,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, yeah, Well that's that's it in a nutshell.

941
00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:00,279
Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's it. That's I mean, And I

942
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:03,040
Speaker 2: say that like from a caller standpoint, that's what Monday

943
00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:05,640
Speaker 2: morning feels like after forty two to ten. And I

944
00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:07,920
Speaker 2: bet you Sam and Philly have to be in Philly

945
00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:10,640
Speaker 2: is not is not a great place to be being

946
00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:13,840
Speaker 2: a Cowboy fan in Philly, especially after a game like this.

947
00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:19,880
Speaker 2: You know, I don't know if they're looking for another quarterback.

948
00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:23,319
Speaker 2: They probably I'm not going to say that they are

949
00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:25,960
Speaker 2: saying that. They all. They're all you're always looking for that,

950
00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:27,960
Speaker 2: You're always looking for your next move. You're always started

951
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:31,640
Speaker 2: to trying to figure that out. So I don't think

952
00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:35,240
Speaker 2: those are conversations necessary that we that are having right now.

953
00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:38,279
Speaker 2: But but yeah, I mean you have to you have

954
00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:40,359
Speaker 2: to look look down the line. And I know I said,

955
00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:41,759
Speaker 2: we're not gonna sit here and talk about it, but

956
00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:44,680
Speaker 2: that's not for us to do. I mean, the decision

957
00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:46,759
Speaker 2: makers are the ones that are that need to talk

958
00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:48,800
Speaker 2: about that. But they were, more than anything, need to

959
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:50,920
Speaker 2: figure out how to fix it for right now. Fix

960
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:53,279
Speaker 2: fix this thing, turn it around, figure out how to

961
00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:56,359
Speaker 2: how to go beat the Chargers. Uh in seven days? Now?

962
00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:58,759
Speaker 2: You know, next Monday, you gotta go. You gotta go

963
00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:01,000
Speaker 2: win that game. You gotta go. You made the decision

964
00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:04,759
Speaker 2: to not have Killen Moore and call the plays. And

965
00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:06,960
Speaker 2: now he's calling the plays with the Chargers and you're

966
00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:08,960
Speaker 2: calling the plays here and it's not working out. And

967
00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:10,560
Speaker 2: guess what, you get to play them and we get

968
00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:12,680
Speaker 2: to talk about it on Monday night. And that's what's

969
00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:15,239
Speaker 2: going to happen. And so you know, this was a

970
00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:18,200
Speaker 2: Barama game and the Cowboys failed. Well, they got another

971
00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:20,200
Speaker 2: one coming up here right before the buye. Because you

972
00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:22,440
Speaker 2: go lose to the Chargers and we have to sit

973
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:24,680
Speaker 2: and talk about it for fourteen days, there's gonna be

974
00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:27,960
Speaker 2: some there will be some changes after that. So I

975
00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:30,000
Speaker 2: don't know if last night's game was the biggest game

976
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:31,799
Speaker 2: of the year. I think this one might be.

977
00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:32,080
Speaker 5: Though.

978
00:47:32,080 --> 00:47:34,680
Speaker 2: This one might be way bigger than that, because if

979
00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:37,239
Speaker 2: the Cowboys are anything close to the team they want

980
00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:39,399
Speaker 2: to be, they need to figure out how to get

981
00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:42,880
Speaker 2: up dust themselves off. Get that it's not even a

982
00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:45,200
Speaker 2: bloody lip. I mean, they got a lot of bumps

983
00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:47,840
Speaker 2: and bruises from last night. Figure that out and go

984
00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:51,440
Speaker 2: beat the Chargers and go, you know, win win a

985
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:53,719
Speaker 2: game up there. If they can do that, then then

986
00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:56,880
Speaker 2: you know it might it might save the season. But

987
00:47:56,960 --> 00:47:59,560
Speaker 2: as it stands right now, this was a terrible loss.

988
00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:01,720
Speaker 2: You guys, I appreciate all the callers that they called

989
00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:04,520
Speaker 2: in today. Uh not feeling good this Monday morning, and

990
00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:08,200
Speaker 2: he really shouldn't. But again, long season. We'll see if

991
00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:10,480
Speaker 2: they if the Cowboys have what it takes to turn

992
00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:12,640
Speaker 2: this thing around. All right, we're gonna turn this around

993
00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:15,200
Speaker 2: to Cowboys. Break will be coming that. It's gonna be

994
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:18,160
Speaker 2: interesting to hear what they say. I'm gonna get out

995
00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:21,480
Speaker 2: of here. Uh well, we'll see you tomorrow on Cowboys storyline.
