1
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:05,480
Speaker 1: The following.

2
00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:07,520
Speaker 2: He is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and

3
00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:09,320
Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.

4
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:12,160
Speaker 1: Cowboys.

5
00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 3: This is these Cowboys storylines with Nick Eatman.

6
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 1: What's up everyone, Welcome to Cowboys Storyline. I'm Nick Eatman

7
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 1: here and we are ready for another thirty minutes of

8
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 1: cowboys talk. That's what we do around here, all right.

9
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 1: I want to hear from you, guys, like always got

10
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 1: the phone nines open. I kind of hear some some

11
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:41,159
Speaker 1: calling going on in the background back there. I think

12
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 1: we're already getting ready to get going here. One eight

13
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,280
Speaker 1: eight eight five five two two nine seven. That is

14
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 1: the phone line I want to hear from you. Text

15
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,520
Speaker 1: line is eight one seven two nine zero three two

16
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 1: nine eight. Send those text messages. We've already got a

17
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 1: lot of those as well. We're gonna get through the

18
00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 1: storylines here. And it's cut day. It's cut two days. Really,

19
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 1: it used to just be one one big cut day.

20
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,160
Speaker 1: But after that, I mean, now you know you got

21
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: the waiver wire, You've got claims that are gonna be made.

22
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 1: It's it's two o'clock. If you're if you're watching this

23
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 1: on demand, I'll just tell right now it's two o'clock

24
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 1: Dallas time. Three o'clock is the deadline for for when

25
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 1: they're gonna hear about their claims, maybe that they put

26
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 1: in for other teams, or if other teams were have

27
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:29,399
Speaker 1: claimed some players, and so a little bit more roster

28
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 1: and manipulation than in the past, and you'll see some

29
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 1: of that. I don't think just because you've made the

30
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,959
Speaker 1: team now doesn't mean you're gonna be on it, you know,

31
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,480
Speaker 1: tomorrow or even later today. And just because you're on

32
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 1: the practice squad now, which will get official here in

33
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 1: a little while, but probably after this show naturally is

34
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: off the air, the practice squad will be official. But

35
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 1: we got some names of who we anticipate will be

36
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 1: on it and guys that won't be. And and I'll

37
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: just tell you right now, the practice squad is going

38
00:01:57,640 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: to look different. You're gonna have some guys playing in

39
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 1: the game against the Giants that are currently on the

40
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 1: practice squad, like a like a long snap Bertrant Siege

41
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 1: or maybe even a CJ. Goodwin. That's just kind of

42
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 1: the way that they have to make these these things work.

43
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 1: And most of the fans kind of are know. You

44
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 1: guys know that by now on how we're doing things

45
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 1: and how the Cowboys kind of you know, I wouldn't

46
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 1: say manipulate the rules, but you know, you have to

47
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 1: kind of bend them a little bit to make this

48
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: thing work. And this every team in the league does it,

49
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 1: and so that's why it kind of creates some chaotic

50
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 1: times here for these twenty four hours to forty eight

51
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 1: hours with the roster just still trying to figure it out.

52
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,119
Speaker 1: We're gonna have a story on the website on Friday

53
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 1: of like, here's what the roster looks like now, position

54
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,359
Speaker 1: by position, And I say it Friday because that's when

55
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 1: all the dust will probably settle and you'll really get

56
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 1: a good idea of what this thing looks like, especially

57
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 1: the bottom end and the practice squad. But practice squad

58
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 1: is bigger than it ever has been because you can

59
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: move these guys up to two guys from the practice squad,

60
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:05,920
Speaker 1: elevate them up to the roster. You can only do

61
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 1: it three times per player, but you can do it

62
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,080
Speaker 1: every week. So the practice squad is more meaningful, I

63
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,359
Speaker 1: think now than it ever has been. So all right,

64
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 1: I want to hear from you guys. We didn't getting

65
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:17,920
Speaker 1: calls to the last show we got. So we've got

66
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: a guy on the line now, I believe Travis from

67
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: San Antonio. So we're going to hit the calls right away. Travis,

68
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: are you there?

69
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:24,679
Speaker 4: I am.

70
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 1: What's up going Nick.

71
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 5: On the new show? I'm good. Just a quick comment

72
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 5: and question or kind of what I want to get

73
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 5: your thoughts on something I think everyone needs to. I'm

74
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 5: a Michigan van, so I think everyone needs a relax

75
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 5: on miss and hearing all this stuff and seen everything

76
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 5: he's working with Michael with his hands. If he develops

77
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 5: his hands, a bigger jump from I think the second

78
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 5: half of the year to the offseason is going to

79
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:49,839
Speaker 5: be where you're going to see him jump. I think

80
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 5: he's going to be just fine. Somevere needs a relax

81
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 5: on that. But I did want to get your thoughts

82
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 5: on having adding Gilmour to this team. I think is

83
00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 5: big because I think it's going to allow dan Quinn

84
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 5: to do more things on defense than he even does now.

85
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,840
Speaker 5: And I noticed, you know with the whole walking Vanderresh

86
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 5: up to rush off the edge. My thought is that

87
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 5: they're going to do that so they can pick and

88
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 5: choose when they do that throughout a game. Either send

89
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,280
Speaker 5: Micah and drop Lvy back or send lv and drop

90
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 5: Micah back, and then when it comes to critical situations,

91
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 5: you can't identify who the mic is and you can

92
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 5: send either one. So I just want to get your thoughts

93
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 5: on that and have a great show.

94
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: Thank you so much, And I have I have made

95
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: a comment on that before, maybe not to the point

96
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 1: about identifying the middle linebacker, so that that is a

97
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,359
Speaker 1: good point right there. But you're right about the fact

98
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: of is it Micah because that's what every quarterback has

99
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,159
Speaker 1: to do on every snap. And that's why you know

100
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: you've got a great player is because when they're out

101
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 1: here looking at what your guy is that then you're

102
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,279
Speaker 1: helping dictate what's going to happen. Because a lot of

103
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 1: the offenses and those arrogant offensive coordinators because they all

104
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 1: are they think, no, we do what we do and

105
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,159
Speaker 1: you try to stop it, which is cool most of

106
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 1: the time. When you have a Micah Parsons sitting out there,

107
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 1: you'd be foolish to do it that way. You have

108
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,359
Speaker 1: to find out where he is on every snap. And

109
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,479
Speaker 1: to your point, you got him rushing at times. Now

110
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 1: you've got Layton coming in, they'll move it around. Now

111
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are going to be a better defense if

112
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,720
Speaker 1: Mike is rushing the passer more than he's not. I

113
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:23,160
Speaker 1: think that's fair to say. But at times when you can,

114
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: you know, you can be a decoy here and there.

115
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I think Jordan took every game win he shot,

116
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:30,600
Speaker 1: but I mean every once in a while, maybe when

117
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 1: he was doubled he could pass it off. But you

118
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 1: got to have a Pippin is Lighton gonna be that

119
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 1: that guy, and I think he can. We saw some

120
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 1: pretty good things of him rushing off the edge. Going

121
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 1: back to your Mazie Smith comment, and I had a

122
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 1: text line question too from Jason from Pennsylvania about him

123
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 1: being an upgrade over Bohanna. Is it just because he's

124
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,840
Speaker 1: a first round pick. I think I think he is.

125
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 1: I think the up upside is there Bohanna, I think

126
00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,480
Speaker 1: is what he is, a bigger guy, of course, But

127
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 1: to your point Travis about the hands and strength is strength,

128
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 1: and if I mean, you've got to be able to

129
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:08,679
Speaker 1: play with leverage, You've got to be able to understand

130
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: how to play and use that strength. But I think

131
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,840
Speaker 1: he continue he will continue to do that, and I

132
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 1: think he's going to get better and better because strength

133
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,160
Speaker 1: travels each week when you're strong as an ox. Jonathan

134
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 1: Hankins says, Mazzi is the strongest player he's ever played

135
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 1: next to. And he's he's been in the league now

136
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: ten years. He played with the guy named Snacks, you know,

137
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,719
Speaker 1: over with the Giants, and he's a pretty strong guy himself,

138
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 1: Hankins is. But but for him to say that, so

139
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 1: he's getting some good coaching. He's got the strength, he's

140
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,719
Speaker 1: got the tools, you know. And also give the Cowboys

141
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,280
Speaker 1: some credit to they draft well in the first round. Now,

142
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: you say what you want about Taco Charlton, that's it.

143
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 1: That's it, unless you want to go to a different

144
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 1: decade from now. You know, Morris Claiborne, way back eleven

145
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 1: years ago. They draft well in the first round. They

146
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 1: always have their guys make the Pro Bowl or the

147
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: All Pro or both. Taco was not a good pick

148
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 1: late in the first round. Everyone knows that Morris Claiborne

149
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 1: turned out to not be a good pick. But for

150
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 1: the most part, they do well. So let's give let's

151
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 1: give him credit. I mean, Mozzi's not going to come

152
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 1: out rut of the gate. Byron Jones didn't either, but

153
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 1: he developed into a pretty good player. So all right,

154
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 1: let's go back to another phone call. What do we

155
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: got Barack Jacksonville, Florida. What's up?

156
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 6: Man?

157
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 7: Hey man, I just wanted to say, first off and

158
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 7: grab f on the new show, Thank you. Decided to

159
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 7: kick the old school with the question. I was doing

160
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 7: some moving here is going through some boxes, came across

161
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 7: the classic of if these Walls could talk. The first

162
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 7: question is do you think we'll ever get.

163
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 5: A volume two to that?

164
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 7: And the second question is two guys that you've covered,

165
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 7: if you could take one guy from offense and one

166
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 7: guy on defense that you put on a team right

167
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 7: now that you think would make us an absolute super

168
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 7: Bowl Locked. Appreciate your man, take it easy, Thank.

169
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 1: You, Love love that call. Oh if these Walls could Talk?

170
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 1: Part two? Maybe, I mean, you know they're there. They've

171
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 1: been silent for a little bit. Maybe they needed to

172
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 1: start chatting it up again. I'll say that. And and

173
00:07:56,520 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 1: I've had the fortune and this isn't me like boasting anything,

174
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 1: but I mean I've I've written four books that one,

175
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 1: by far is the one that that people love the

176
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: most and still still buy it. And I still get

177
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,120
Speaker 1: a little check every now and again every you know,

178
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 1: like once every every summer. And so yeah, that that one.

179
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 1: That was a fun book to write and just just

180
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 1: just me. It was a collection of stories that I've

181
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 1: been there, and I remember thinking it was fifteen years

182
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 1: I've been working for the Cowboys, so I used a

183
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: lot of stories. So now it's been twenty four years.

184
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 1: So there's probably some more that I could I could

185
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 1: throw out there. And so yeah, I mean I can't.

186
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,719
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say no to that. That There's a

187
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 1: couple of ideas floating around, but nothing crazy. Two guys

188
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,840
Speaker 1: that could help the team right now that I've covered.

189
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 1: I mean that's always a tricky question. I mean, are

190
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,599
Speaker 1: they do they? Is their body the same now? I

191
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 1: mean it's you know as old they limping around or

192
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 1: just you know somebody that that played back in the day,

193
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 1: and and you know, I mean you can, man, you

194
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 1: could always look at the players that you know, look

195
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 1: at positions of some need. And when I get asked

196
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:10,679
Speaker 1: about any former player that I've covered, they they are,

197
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 1: it always starts with Darren Woodson. For me, I'm sorry,

198
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 1: it's just that I'm guilty. I guess that's That's why

199
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 1: he's got a big picture in my office hanging there,

200
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,439
Speaker 1: because he's my favorite player. I think he could play

201
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 1: in any era. I think he could. He understands the game.

202
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 1: He's one of the smartest players, one of smartest people

203
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 1: I've ever met. He's driven to the point where he's

204
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,959
Speaker 1: not gonna He's not gonna fail, He's just not. And

205
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,200
Speaker 1: so you put him at linebacker, you can put him

206
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,319
Speaker 1: at safety, you could put him at slot, corner. You

207
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 1: could probably put him at corner. You could play all

208
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: the special teams. I mean, Darren Woodson could do it all,

209
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 1: you know. And and Bill Parcels, I think has a

210
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 1: great quote. He's like I had him for one year.

211
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:45,319
Speaker 1: He goes, if I would have had it in my

212
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 1: whole career, there's no doubt he would be in Canton already.

213
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 1: And I think that's where he deserves to be. So

214
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 1: that's a guy right there. You know, any any other

215
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 1: guy that could make him a lock?

216
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:56,959
Speaker 2: You know?

217
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 1: How about another running back? You know, I mean another guy,

218
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 1: I mean Zeke in his in his in his time

219
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 1: and his in his you know, like early career, or

220
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,719
Speaker 1: a back like that, or a Marian Barber type of guy.

221
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 1: You know, just just just a big, bruising type back

222
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 1: that that just can can change the game and really

223
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 1: compliment the other running back that you have. So but

224
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 1: that's tho. There's just two positions that come up with.

225
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 1: That was a good question. I wish I had a

226
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 1: little bit more time for that because because I would,

227
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 1: I would have had a better answer. But to me,

228
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:30,959
Speaker 1: if if you're saying former player, I always started with

229
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,680
Speaker 1: hearing Woodson because I mean, he checks all the boxes

230
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: for me. Great player, better person. All right, let's go

231
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,679
Speaker 1: back to the phone line. Joe from Stanford. My guy,

232
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 1: what's up man?

233
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 4: What's up?

234
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:41,560
Speaker 8: Brother?

235
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 4: How are you Dad?

236
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 1: Good man? How are you good?

237
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,439
Speaker 4: Lots of excitement, So a couple of things. First, I'm

238
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,679
Speaker 4: really excited about hunter Key. I think he's going to

239
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 4: be able to play more than just a full back position,

240
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 4: sort of h back, maybe a little tight end, sort

241
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 4: of move them around. I think he's going to really

242
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 4: give us a different facet of our So I'm super

243
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:04,959
Speaker 4: excited about that. The other thing I'm wondering about it

244
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,679
Speaker 4: if you heard anything. Have we got any of these

245
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:11,079
Speaker 4: center guys back? Have they signed somewhere yet? Obviously we

246
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,840
Speaker 4: haven't done our practice squad yet, But are we going

247
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 4: to get Farniak or one of these guys back to

248
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 4: back up our center.

249
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 1: That is a good question. That's a really good question,

250
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:24,680
Speaker 1: and Joe, I appreciate the call, thank you so much.

251
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: Backup center is a question mark right now. There's no

252
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:36,199
Speaker 1: doubt about it. Brock Hoffman is probably going to be

253
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 1: on the practice squad and that he could be a

254
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 1: guy that they move up on game day. But I

255
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 1: think you only elevate two guys, and as it stands

256
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: right now, I see a long snapper and I see CJ.

257
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 1: Goodwin that could be on the practice squad as well.

258
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 1: So they're gonna have to make some moves here. Don't

259
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:01,320
Speaker 1: rule out this one. That your backup snapper, your backup

260
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: center for the game is Zach Martin. Yeah, yeah, that

261
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,079
Speaker 1: that that could happen, and that that very well could

262
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,599
Speaker 1: be the case. And the reason why I have that

263
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 1: face because he's never done it. Now, Zach Martin could

264
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,319
Speaker 1: probably punt and he would be a decent at it

265
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 1: because he's he's great. But that is a possibility. I

266
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 1: think that's being discussed. I don't know if that's something

267
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 1: that they're going to do all the time, but it

268
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 1: could it could be the case if they get down

269
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 1: to it in a game. My guess is that they'll

270
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: probably have a different guy. Farniac. No, I don't see

271
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,319
Speaker 1: him in the plans at the moment right now. So

272
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,839
Speaker 1: all right again, like I said, we're gonna take it.

273
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:43,560
Speaker 1: We'll take a break here when we do, we'll come back.

274
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 1: We're gonna well, we'll talk a little bit more about

275
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 1: the practice squad. We're getting closer and closer to making

276
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,760

Speaker 2: blue cheese or signature Wingstop ranch, and of course spicy

311
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 2: Cajun fried corn. I think you've heard enough, get your

312
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 2: flavor delivered at Wingstop dot com.

313
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:04,440
Speaker 1: Welcome back here the second segment of Cowboys Storyline. I'm

314
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 1: Nick Eatman, and we are talking about the roster, talking

315
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 1: about everything Cowboys related here as we get closer and

316
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 1: closer to week one of the season, a couple of

317
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 1: things of note here again at three o'clock, which is

318
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: about forty minutes from now, that's when we'll hear a

319
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 1: little bit more about the official practice squad. The Cowboys

320
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: are adding some players to it from other teams. And

321
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 1: one of the guys that's being reported as a center

322
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 1: from the Giants, Sean Harlow, that was had a chance

323
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 1: to go to the Giants practice squad, came to the

324
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 1: Cowboys practice squad. And you know a lot of times

325
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: practice squad to practice squad. Now, the money can be different.

326
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 1: You can pay people what you want from the practice squad.

327
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 1: Still got to fit under the salary cap. But there's

328
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,960
Speaker 1: been times where you can kind of give them more money.

329
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 1: But you know, it comes down to opportunity. I mean,

330
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 1: Cowboys wanted Will Greer, but he was going to be

331
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,280
Speaker 1: the fourth quarterback here and I know he signed with

332
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 1: Cincinnati and you know you can be on their practice squad.

333
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 1: But it's also, like we talked about before, opportunity on

334
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 1: game day. There are some guys that have a chance

335
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 1: to move up during the week, elevated at the end

336
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,720
Speaker 1: of the week. That probably wouldn't have been the case

337
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 1: here in Dallas, but maybe a better opportunity for him.

338
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 1: Same with the center. Harlow looks at the you know,

339
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 1: no backup spot here for the Cowboys, could be a

340
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: good opportunity for him to move up. All right, let's

341
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 1: go and another thing. Dennis Houston, wide receiver, same situation

342
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 1: could have gone here in Dallas. It looks like he's

343
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 1: going to the Giants practice squad there. All right, let's

344
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 1: go back to the phone line, Gary from New Mexico. Gary,

345
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 1: what's up, hey, Nick?

346
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:40,160
Speaker 4: How you doing?

347
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 1: I'm great man, How are you?

348
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 10: I'm good? First off, I think you're the only person

349
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 10: on the planet that could challenge me in my historical

350
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 10: knowledge of the Dallas Cowboy. Let's do it, man, What

351
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,320
Speaker 10: do you go one of these days you just you

352
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 10: throw anything at me, man, and just see if I

353
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 10: can answer.

354
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 5: But all right, here's the thing.

355
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 1: Here's the thing. Gary. Next time you call, which we

356
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 1: got to show Friday? I don't know, Friday at eleven.

357
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 1: I don't know if you can make there. Uh, next

358
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 1: time you call, uh, you throw a trivia question at me,

359
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:08,199
Speaker 1: I'll throw one at you and then we'll see what happens.

360
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 1: And uh, because I'm I'm a little worried now. I mean,

361
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 1: if you if you're gonna throw it out there, I'll

362
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 1: give one out. And you know that that's actually something

363
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:20,200
Speaker 1: I've I've thought of, you know, maybe not during the season,

364
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 1: during the during you know, these Mondays when the season

365
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 1: gets cranking up. But yeah, like like having some some

366
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,720
Speaker 1: trivia questions back and forth, or just name a random player,

367
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 1: just any random I love that.

368
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,680
Speaker 10: Yeah, I love the random the random thing. I'll enjoy

369
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 10: listening to you when you talk about that.

370
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 1: Yeah.

371
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,159
Speaker 10: But on the on the Hunter Lipty thing, do you

372
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,440
Speaker 10: think that there's a possibility that they've been kind of

373
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 10: holding some stuff back, and we may see a little

374
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:44,880
Speaker 10: more of Hunter Lympkey in a in a full back

375
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 10: roll blocking for Tony Pollard when the season starts.

376
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,159
Speaker 1: That's a good question, and I appreciate the call uh

377
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:52,760
Speaker 1: And and also reminds me I didn't answer the Lipkey

378
00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 1: part from Joe uh and the previous caller. So yeah,

379
00:17:56,040 --> 00:18:00,359
Speaker 1: let's talk about Hunter Lipke a little bit. Probably. I mean,

380
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 1: everything you do at this point is a little bit

381
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 1: of vanilla, so you're not using a lot of fullback.

382
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 1: You don't put a lot of fullback on tape, So sure,

383
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 1: I mean, I'd like to see if he's going to

384
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 1: do that. I think they wanted to see if he

385
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,440
Speaker 1: could be a running back as well, and what he

386
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:18,200
Speaker 1: does there. I thought he made the team with one

387
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 1: play the other night. I thought he caught a pass

388
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 1: out of the backfield, slipped a defender and trucked another

389
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:26,159
Speaker 1: guy at the end and had a nice play. And

390
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 1: I thought, right then, I thought, if he's going to

391
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 1: make the team, it's going to because of that, because

392
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,919
Speaker 1: you're showing an ability and awareness to catch it out

393
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 1: of the backfield, the hands to catch it, the elusiveness

394
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,119
Speaker 1: to get by a guy, the power to run over someone.

395
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 1: Just the playmaking ability there, and so he did make

396
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,880
Speaker 1: the team. And now with McEwan not on the team,

397
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,880
Speaker 1: that kind of he's like the fourth tied end type guy.

398
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 1: So he's also got to play some special teams. They're

399
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 1: short on linebackers. Linebackers are heavy on the special teams units.

400
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,440
Speaker 1: He's got the frame of a linebacker, so there's a

401
00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:00,920
Speaker 1: lot of possibilities there. I don't think, like you said,

402
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,400
Speaker 1: like the caller just said, I don't think that we've

403
00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 1: seen all that we're going to see from him in

404
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:10,239
Speaker 1: that position. So exciting uh, exciting time for him, uh

405
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,359
Speaker 1: for Hunter lift Gy and making the team. All right,

406
00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 1: let's go back phone line again, Jose and san Antonio.

407
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:18,960
Speaker 1: What's up, hey, Nick? How are you doing it? I

408
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: love your show man, Thank you appreciate it.

409
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 4: Man, Hey, no problem, man. My real quick question is

410
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:30,440
Speaker 4: money concern with his team? Is the O line depth.

411
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 4: I want to hear yours from that, and if you

412
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 4: think if the couples possibly go after.

413
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:37,199
Speaker 5: Any O line free agents.

414
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:39,400
Speaker 10: That's all I got, man, Thanks a loving, good looking

415
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:40,680
Speaker 10: Thank you so much.

416
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,159
Speaker 1: I appreciate that we need we need the callers. You

417
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 1: guys are bringing it today. Man, this is great you

418
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 1: putting my guy Chris Beam to work back there. But

419
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 1: uh yeah, he's he's happy to do it as well.

420
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 1: I agree. O line depth that's where I see issues

421
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 1: because you're gonna need it. This is be honest, You're

422
00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:59,680
Speaker 1: gonna need the O line depth. That's just kind of

423
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:01,919
Speaker 1: the where things are. You've got guy coming back from

424
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,920
Speaker 1: knee injury, and and Terrence Steele and uh you know,

425
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,359
Speaker 1: hopefully he'll he'll be great. Tyler Biattis has been banged

426
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 1: up some at the end of last year. Tyron Smith

427
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,359
Speaker 1: is Tyron Smith, Zach Martin. You know that he's getting

428
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,520
Speaker 1: older as well, and now he's he's pretty reliable. But

429
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 1: but I'm just saying things things happen, and from six

430
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 1: to nine, six to ten, and on the O line depth,

431
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:24,639
Speaker 1: it's it's a lot of question marks. You don't know

432
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,679
Speaker 1: who your backup center is going to be, the swing tackle.

433
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 1: It's is it, well, let's go. He hasn't played any

434
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 1: and and and neither is awesome Richards, and so it's

435
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 1: it's kind of a scary moment, is there. If there's

436
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:37,520
Speaker 1: an opportunity to go get a guy, I would do that.

437
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 2: I don't.

438
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 1: Teams don't cut good offensive linemen. They just don't. And

439
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 1: so if they are available, they're probably over forty years

440
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:49,400
Speaker 1: old Jason Peters, So like that's that's typically what happens there.

441
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:54,120
Speaker 1: So anyways, let's get before we go back to the call,

442
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 1: let's get one of the text line questions here. Jeff

443
00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 1: in North Carolina I says why six receivers likely don't

444
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 1: only see four and maybe turping on a jet sweep.

445
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,199
Speaker 1: That comes down to, you know, they wanted to keep

446
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:10,560
Speaker 1: Jalen Brooks. That you keep five usually and then because

447
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 1: you need five or so and Turp it's a little different,

448
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,680
Speaker 1: but you know you need him because he can play

449
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 1: receiver and also he's a returner. He is your returner.

450
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 1: And then after that it's it's who do you want

451
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:24,520
Speaker 1: to keep? Who do It's not six receivers, it's it's

452
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 1: the sixth receiver versus the fifth linebacker or whatever. At

453
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 1: the end of the day, they wanted to keep Jalen Brooks.

454
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,320
Speaker 1: He'll probably will wear a ball cap most of the season.

455
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:35,879
Speaker 1: He may not be active a lot, but they liked

456
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 1: what they saw. They liked him. You know you're gonna

457
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:41,359
Speaker 1: see in a in a Deep Blue documentary we're putting

458
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,520
Speaker 1: out later this week called War Stories Too, you're gonna

459
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,199
Speaker 1: see some talk and when they drafted Douce Vaughan, it's

460
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 1: probably my favorite story of the ten that we're putting

461
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 1: out there. But they were trying to draft Jalen Brooks

462
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 1: in the sixth round. Even in the fifth they kept

463
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 1: talking about him. So they really liked him a lot,

464
00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 1: and he showed out at training camp, and you know,

465
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:01,399
Speaker 1: he's developing and they don't want to let him go.

466
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:03,200
Speaker 1: So that's really why. All right, let's go back to

467
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 1: the phone lines Brian and l Passo. Brian, what's up?

468
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 6: Hey?

469
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 3: Nick?

470
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 11: Just wanted to say thanks for great follow that you

471
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,680
Speaker 11: are on Twitter. Thanks brother, and I love that you

472
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 11: give us, you know, some feedback when we do give

473
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,440
Speaker 11: you some questions on there. But but my question for

474
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 11: you here is can you kind of talk me off

475
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 11: the ledge. I'm a little nervous with the situation of

476
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:29,840
Speaker 11: you know, I know your stance with plane starters in

477
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 11: the preseason, but I feel like I just hope that

478
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,399
Speaker 11: the Cowboys, I know they aren't, but I hope they

479
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 11: aren't looking past the Giants as a tough matchup on

480
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 11: Week one, especially in New York. So I just want

481
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 11: to hang up and I'll listen to your answer on

482
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 11: that one. I appreciate you taking my call.

483
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:48,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I've I've changed my tune over the

484
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 1: years on this. And it happened in Seattle when Tony

485
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:54,119
Speaker 1: Romo was crunched over there and got hurt, and and

486
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 1: and I understand what it led to and led to

487
00:22:57,680 --> 00:22:59,920
Speaker 1: Dak coming in there, and he was he was read

488
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:04,639
Speaker 1: to go, ready to roll. But but getting anybody injured

489
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:06,639
Speaker 1: in a preseason game, to me, just isn't worth it.

490
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:07,600
Speaker 1: It's just not done.

491
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:07,960
Speaker 11: Not to me.

492
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 1: Now, is Kansas City more ready to play because Patrick

493
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:15,280
Speaker 1: Mahomes got a few series here, I just don't think.

494
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:15,359
Speaker 9: So.

495
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 1: I don't think that they're more ready to play. I

496
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:21,680
Speaker 1: just think the risk reward isn't there as much. And also,

497
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:25,680
Speaker 1: you think about two weeks is between the last game

498
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,760
Speaker 1: and the first game, So anything that you got in

499
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:30,680
Speaker 1: that last game or the second to last game, and

500
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 1: you're still going to be two to three weeks before

501
00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,640
Speaker 1: the start of the season, so russ can can come

502
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 1: back into play. There about nobody's overlooking the Giants. No

503
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:40,959
Speaker 1: one's overlooking any anybody any road game on Sunday Night Football.

504
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,080
Speaker 1: You'd be stupid to to to overlook them. The Giants,

505
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 1: you know, they're they're a playoff team. They weren't on

506
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 1: the Cowboys level as far as I was concerned. And

507
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 1: both of those games that Dallas won that I thought

508
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 1: they were clearly better. Let's see if the Giants. The

509
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 1: Giants have added some some some players there, Let's see

510
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:58,399
Speaker 1: if they've gotten better, and they're gonna be ready to go.

511
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,399
Speaker 1: And that's going to be a big time games to

512
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:02,720
Speaker 1: start the season. So no one's looking past them. But

513
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,159
Speaker 1: I will say this, go back and look at the

514
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:08,359
Speaker 1: first month of the season the last few years. This

515
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,840
Speaker 1: team is ready to play. They lost to the Bucks.

516
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 1: That's one of the worst games I've seen. Last year,

517
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:14,879
Speaker 1: they went back and won five in a row. After that,

518
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,520
Speaker 1: you know, the year before, same type of situation where

519
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 1: they also lost to the Bucks, and I believe they

520
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 1: won four or five in a row as well. They

521
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 1: haven't had losing seasons in September in a while. It's

522
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 1: usually three and one, two and two maybe, but mostly

523
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 1: three and one. Whatever they're doing, they are ready to

524
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,479
Speaker 1: play in the first month of the season. They've got

525
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 1: their self ready to go, so I wouldn't get I

526
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,080
Speaker 1: don't know. Please, I'll talk you off the ledge regardless.

527
00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:44,439
Speaker 1: You don't need to be on the ledge of anything.

528
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 1: But I think this team will be ready to go.

529
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:52,400
Speaker 1: Number eleven is ready to go, and he hasn't been

530
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:56,040
Speaker 1: blocked in twenty twenty three at all, So I mean,

531
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 1: he should get you excited about anybody, because he's going

532
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 1: to be screaming off the edge there orlands on September

533
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 1: the tenth. Let's go back to the phone lines, all

534
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 1: right again, Nick, you gotta be You're probably gonna bring

535
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:09,920
Speaker 1: a great question, I would imagine.

536
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 8: Hey, man, thanks for the cause.

537
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:15,440
Speaker 7: Actually, I've been listening to you all for years.

538
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:17,400
Speaker 8: This is my first time. I wonder the phone line

539
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 8: where you're from. I'm from Texas, I live around I

540
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 8: live in South Austin. Actually a little nervous. Never been

541
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:26,280
Speaker 8: on the phone line before.

542
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:29,600
Speaker 1: No, man, you're good, You're good. I appreciate, appreciate the call.

543
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,160
Speaker 1: You know, it's been a it's been a very Texas

544
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:36,280
Speaker 1: or Southwest region calls. I've got San Antonio, El Paso,

545
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 1: New Mexico, Austin, Stanford. I mean we're all over the

546
00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 1: region here, So what do you got?

547
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:42,760
Speaker 2: Oh?

548
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:47,040
Speaker 8: Well, the thing is, I'm really impressed with our rugby

549
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:52,120
Speaker 8: classes this year, Duce and I was really impressed with him.

550
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:56,879
Speaker 8: I'm really bummed out about overshown. Yeah, I guess my

551
00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:05,200
Speaker 8: concern is about probably our life and oline. But I

552
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:07,560
Speaker 8: think with this new offense that we're going to run

553
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:11,440
Speaker 8: that we're gonna probably be okay with that because we're

554
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:13,520
Speaker 8: getting a ball out a lot quicker that having to

555
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 8: just sit back and hold it as long. My question is, boy,

556
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:21,119
Speaker 8: there's a lot of questions.

557
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 1: I could get a lot of questions.

558
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:24,640
Speaker 10: Uh do you do you think?

559
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:26,880
Speaker 8: What do you think person's gonna do this year?

560
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, Mike, I think he's going to be. Like I

561
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:32,120
Speaker 1: said just now, I think he's going to be outstanding.

562
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,200
Speaker 1: And uh, I appreciate the call. Thank you so much.

563
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 9: Nick H.

564
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:39,200
Speaker 1: From South Austin. Again, this has been just a Texas

565
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 1: sized uh number of calls and also a region of calls.

566
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 1: I think Mike is going to be battling for defensive

567
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 1: Player of the Year. I think that the key is

568
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 1: going to be the players around him can can the

569
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 1: other guys because every week there are offensive coordinators going

570
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 1: to stay up all night long for six days in

571
00:26:58,000 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 1: a row trying to figure out how to stop Mike apart.

572
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 1: But that's gonna leave somebody else open. It's gonna be

573
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 1: with somebody else available to make plays. Doriance Armstrong, Tank

574
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,200
Speaker 1: Leyton vander ash and then of course the guys you

575
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:13,720
Speaker 1: got in the middle. Don't forget Sam Williams, Dante Fowler.

576
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,479
Speaker 1: So these other guys are gonna have opportunities to make

577
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 1: plays if they do contain Micah Parsons, And like I said,

578
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 1: I just haven't seen it so far. Your first question

579
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 1: about the rookies, I agree the rookie class is still

580
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 1: strong even without overshowing. Another text line question Favian from Lewisville, Texas.

581
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,919
Speaker 1: Which rookie that made the fifty three do you expect

582
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,960
Speaker 1: to have the biggest impact for the Cowboys in twenty

583
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 1: twenty three. Deuce is an obvious candidate for that. I

584
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:45,479
Speaker 1: think he's gonna have a role. I don't know if

585
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,440
Speaker 1: he'll play as much. The guy that will probably play

586
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 1: the most Snaps. Maybe you recognize it as much, maybe

587
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 1: you don't, but it could be Scoonmaker because I think

588
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 1: what he provides at the tied end position. I think

589
00:27:57,560 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 1: he will eventually get himself into one of the top

590
00:27:59,880 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 1: two guys, probably with Ferguson. I think he'll play a lot.

591
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 1: So I think Schoonmaker is a guy you haven't heard

592
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 1: a ton from him. He's been injured some. He'll play well.

593
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 1: I think, you know, I think Duce will have a role.

594
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:16,280
Speaker 1: Maszi's gonna get in there. He's gonna he's gonna play well.

595
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:18,200
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think of some other the the other

596
00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:21,120
Speaker 1: draft picks, but but I you know, over shown obviously

597
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:25,400
Speaker 1: uh banged up there Junior for Hoko maybe not even

598
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:29,239
Speaker 1: active right away. They're so deep in the defensive line. Uh,

599
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,159
Speaker 1: they're keeping him. But at the same time, it's you know,

600
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,080
Speaker 1: it's gonna be tough Eric Scott, It's gonna be tough

601
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:37,399
Speaker 1: for him to make uh contribution, especially with Jordan Lewis

602
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,480
Speaker 1: now on the fifty three and expected to play maybe

603
00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 1: not week one, but but in the first couple of weeks.

604
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 1: So I I go with Douce that having a role,

605
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 1: Mazi and then and also Schoonmaker. I think those those

606
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 1: three guys will probably be the most from an impact standpoint,

607
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,040
Speaker 1: all right. I think the phone lines are clear right now.

608
00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:01,120
Speaker 1: Usually we're in overtime right now a little bit. That's okay,

609
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: We roll a little bit. We have some some questions.

610
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:05,680
Speaker 1: As long as if Chris beams all right over there,

611
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 1: we're good, ready to roll, all right. I got another

612
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,520
Speaker 1: question from Lincoln, Texas. I mean, this is just I mean,

613
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:15,160
Speaker 1: this is an international show. I promise you international. You

614
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 1: can call it from anywhere. You can text from anywhere

615
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,160
Speaker 1: from in the in the in the nation, in the world.

616
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,080
Speaker 1: But right now we were keeping it right here in Texas,

617
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 1: which is fine. I mean, it's it's a big state.

618
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:26,479
Speaker 1: We got a lot of a lot of good stuff here.

619
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:28,920
Speaker 1: All right, Tom from Lincoln, Texas. What's the latest on

620
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 1: Donovan Wilson. Literally haven't heard anything since his injury. Thank you,

621
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,600
Speaker 1: good show, great show, he says, thank you. I appreciate that.

622
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 1: All right, Donovan Wilson calf injury. Can speak from experience here.

623
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 1: Not easy to recover from, especially if you're a non

624
00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 1: athlete like myself. But as an athlete, uh and with

625
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 1: some world class training uh and and athletic trainers that

626
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,920
Speaker 1: they have, I think he'll he'll be finding this is

627
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 1: you know, when a guy gets hurt in training camp.

628
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 1: The goal is set to the tenth week one. That's

629
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,080
Speaker 1: the goal. I mean, get ready to play in that game,

630
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 1: not return then, but get ready to ramp up to

631
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 1: play in that game. The only thing that matters. That

632
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 1: goes back to the question about preseason and all that.

633
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 1: The only thing they care about is get this guy

634
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:15,600
Speaker 1: ready to go. By them, you haven't heard a lot

635
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 1: from him because they're slowly getting him back in. I've

636
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 1: seen him a little bit on the cords out there.

637
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:23,400
Speaker 1: He's working his way back in. Hasn't returned to practice officially.

638
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 1: We still have what ten days or so before the

639
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:29,280
Speaker 1: first game, So I think he'll be fine. At least

640
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:32,920
Speaker 1: that's what I would imagine. He's had enough time to recover.

641
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 1: He has not returned to practice, but he should be

642
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,400
Speaker 1: back and ready to go. A question here from Chad

643
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:40,520
Speaker 1: from Auburn, New York.

644
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 2: Here we go.

645
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:43,560
Speaker 1: Now we're getting up to the other place where the

646
00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 1: Calbaries are actually going to play their first game up

647
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 1: in New York. Chad up there says, what's going on

648
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 1: with Dorence Armstrong? Have not heard anything about him all summer?

649
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 1: Banged up a little bit, I believe hamstring injury for him,

650
00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 1: he's spending it and out of practice some Again, he's

651
00:30:58,280 --> 00:30:59,840
Speaker 1: at that level. You're not going to see him in

652
00:30:59,880 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 1: the free season. They're excited about what he can do.

653
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 1: This is a contract year for him. I think I

654
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:10,080
Speaker 1: don't think there's any issues with him long term missing

655
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: any time. I think he is going to play, So

656
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,000
Speaker 1: wouldn't expect anything different now. And he's one of those

657
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:20,479
Speaker 1: guys you want him to practice because those guys need

658
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 1: to move around too. I say it all the time.

659
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,840
Speaker 1: If Mike's moving, these other guys are moving too. If

660
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:26,320
Speaker 1: he's going from left side to the right side, that

661
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:28,640
Speaker 1: means Drance is going from right to left or tank

662
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:31,000
Speaker 1: or whatever. So you got to practice is so important

663
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:33,840
Speaker 1: throughout the week because when they install the game plan

664
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 1: and say, all right, this is what we're gonna do

665
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:37,000
Speaker 1: with Michael, this is what we're gonna do with late In,

666
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,080
Speaker 1: this we're gonna do with these guys, everybody's got to

667
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 1: be on the same page. It's not like, you know,

668
00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 1: Zach Martin missing all week and then just coming right

669
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:47,360
Speaker 1: back and playing right guard that the defensive scheme is different.

670
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 1: And I do think that it matters for them to

671
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:53,080
Speaker 1: be there in practice, So hopefully Dorrance and Donovan Wilson

672
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 1: can get themselves back into practice sooner than later. All right,

673
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 1: this is Nick in Long Eye Allen, New York, I

674
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 1: mean Texas and New York. It's all we got right now,

675
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:06,880
Speaker 1: it's all we need. Really. What number? Oh, this is

676
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:08,360
Speaker 1: a tough one, man. I'll have this one for you.

677
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 1: What number will Douce wear? What number do you think

678
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 1: he should wear?

679
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:16,120
Speaker 4: Oh?

680
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:19,840
Speaker 1: God, I mean he should wear two or twenty two.

681
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:21,320
Speaker 1: I mean that's what he should wear. Okay, because his

682
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 1: name's Deuce. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but I'm saying that's

683
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 1: what he should wear. I'm not saying give it to him.

684
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:29,600
Speaker 1: But you know number two, which is Jordan Lewis's number,

685
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:32,280
Speaker 1: number twenty two, that's what a guy named Deuce should wear.

686
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 1: It's what he wore in college all that. But I'm

687
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 1: not suggesting that they give that. It doesn't matter if

688
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:40,880
Speaker 1: I am, because I know Mike McCord, the longtime equipment

689
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:44,760
Speaker 1: manager over there, He would rather, you know, rather be

690
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:46,959
Speaker 1: in a fistfight than to give up number twenty two,

691
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:50,760
Speaker 1: especially to a running back not happening. What number should

692
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:53,200
Speaker 1: he wear? He's probably gonna wear forty two. I think

693
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 1: he's gonna stick with that. Forty three was the number

694
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:57,680
Speaker 1: that's been talked about. They didn't want to give it

695
00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 1: to him because of sprolls. They thought maybe just don't

696
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 1: put the pressure on him. Now Lipkey's made the team.

697
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:05,440
Speaker 1: I don't know if Lipkey's moving, we'll find all these

698
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 1: Jersey numbers are gonna be they're moving. There's a domino effect,

699
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:13,120
Speaker 1: all right. They cut Kelvin Joseph, he's number one. A

700
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:16,240
Speaker 1: lot of guys want that number. Brandon Aubrey was number one.

701
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:17,960
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna move him to a different nut,

702
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:20,480
Speaker 1: maybe one of the teams, and then it's just gonna

703
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:22,880
Speaker 1: be a domino. The guy's gonna want that. Whoever gets

704
00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:26,160
Speaker 1: number one and his numbers open, and so it'll that's

705
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 1: a that's a crazy thing. I don't have that one

706
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:31,360
Speaker 1: for you. And it'll probably be Thursday or Friday before

707
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 1: the dust settles on the roster and most importantly the numbers.

708
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,320
Speaker 1: But I can tell you some people that are that

709
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:41,400
Speaker 1: are really waiting on pins and needles about it, and

710
00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,400
Speaker 1: that's the people in the pro shop because they want

711
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 1: to know exactly what number that Deuce Vaughn is gonna

712
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,920
Speaker 1: wear because there will be some some jerseys printed out.

713
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:52,800
Speaker 1: He's he's a fan favorite already, and why not. He

714
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:56,200
Speaker 1: makes plays. He's the same height as a lot of fans.

715
00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I mean, I'm just saying he

716
00:33:58,240 --> 00:33:59,880
Speaker 1: people can relate to him, and here's a guy that

717
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:00,480
Speaker 1: you want.

718
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 10: To root for.

719
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:05,719
Speaker 1: He's just an outstanding person, comes from a great family,

720
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:09,320
Speaker 1: worked so hard, He's earned everything he's got. And like

721
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:12,879
Speaker 1: I said before, War Stories Too documentary in a Deep

722
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 1: Blue it's our fourth one. It comes out tomorrow night.

723
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,560
Speaker 1: The trailer should be hitting here in thirty minutes or so.

724
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,000
Speaker 1: On the website you'll see a trailer for it. We've

725
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,960
Speaker 1: got ten stories, Deuce is one of them. So we're

726
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 1: really excited about that. And that'll just lead me to

727
00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:27,840
Speaker 1: another thing that I want to say. You know, I

728
00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:29,840
Speaker 1: might break my arm, patted myself in the back and

729
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:35,560
Speaker 1: our team here, but this week we really we kicked ass.

730
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:36,960
Speaker 1: I mean, there's no other way to say it. I mean,

731
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 1: we racked up with some the Emmy Awards, I mean

732
00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:45,480
Speaker 1: the Lone Star Emmys. We won eleven categories, twenty five

733
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:48,400
Speaker 1: people or so. We're able to bring home a trophy.

734
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:52,080
Speaker 1: Some people like myself. I brought home one. Other people

735
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,759
Speaker 1: brought home seven. But I mean either either way, we

736
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 1: had some guys that guys and girls that did great,

737
00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 1: great work are our documentary from last year, twenty four

738
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,759
Speaker 1: to seven coverage with Trayvon Diggs and Everson Wallas is

739
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:07,000
Speaker 1: still my favorite that I've ever been a part of.

740
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 1: Well a tide. Sorry, tied with Cold Shoulder because Chris

741
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:12,799
Speaker 1: Beam and I worked on that and he's listening right now.

742
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:14,439
Speaker 1: I don't want him to fight me. That's a tie,

743
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:18,719
Speaker 1: but but no, those those really were my favorite ones,

744
00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:20,640
Speaker 1: and I love him and I'm not trying to give

745
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,920
Speaker 1: his number away. So but but we're excited to win.

746
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:26,719
Speaker 1: I was able to get an Emmy for that one,

747
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 1: and we had so many more. I mean, we had

748
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:33,600
Speaker 1: some great, great work guys that that just that really

749
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:36,080
Speaker 1: works so hard and we're able to be rewarded. So

750
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 1: excited about that, and it keeps us going, keeps us

751
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:43,080
Speaker 1: driving for more, which is what we continue to do

752
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:45,320
Speaker 1: and is what we did today. Ten minutes of overtime.

753
00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:48,560
Speaker 1: I think we're good there. We're probably gonna little stop

754
00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:50,680
Speaker 1: it at that point. Got great questions on the text line.

755
00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:52,600
Speaker 1: Didn't get all of them, but the phone and we

756
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:54,719
Speaker 1: asked for some calls. I tweeted out, I said, I'm

757
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:57,440
Speaker 1: calling on the callers, and you guys came through and

758
00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:00,520
Speaker 1: I really appreciate it. This is what the show is.

759
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,239
Speaker 1: It's gonna it's gonna thrive on on the callers. I

760
00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:05,279
Speaker 1: love talking to you guys. And who's is it? My

761
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:07,920
Speaker 1: guy Gary from New Mexico is putting down the challenge.

762
00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:10,239
Speaker 1: Now we're gonna we're gonna do a little trivia back

763
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:11,880
Speaker 1: and forth. And that's something I want to do. I

764
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:13,920
Speaker 1: want I want callers to come in, give me a

765
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:17,600

00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:08,800
Speaker 10: I'll take it.

789
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:10,520
Speaker 4: Okay, what in your opinion?

790
00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:13,040
Speaker 8: What kind of deck do we need to succeed?

791
00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:16,120
Speaker 4: Do we need the rookie I guess what people would

792
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:18,880
Speaker 4: say the bus driver dak this year to get us,

793
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 4: to get us over the hump? Or do we need

794
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:27,240
Speaker 4: aggressive putting up four hundred yards and throwing the ball everywhere?

795
00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:27,680
Speaker 7: Which one?

796
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:29,360
Speaker 4: Which one is going to be successful for this.

797
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:36,120
Speaker 1: Team to Okay, I'm always that guy that's gonna I'm sorry,

798
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:38,319
Speaker 1: I'm that guy. Okay, you get me two options, I'm

799
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:40,879
Speaker 1: asking for a third and and I'm and I'm I'm

800
00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 1: gonna tweak your two your your two choices there because

801
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,719
Speaker 1: I think there's somewhere in between. We don't need the

802
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:50,920
Speaker 1: guy to put up four hundred yards passing that that's

803
00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,040
Speaker 1: not what you need all the time. You want to

804
00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:56,799
Speaker 1: have the ability to do it if there is a shootout. Uh,

805
00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:00,319
Speaker 1: bus driver, you know I I don't hate the term

806
00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:03,480
Speaker 1: bus driver. To me, I'm fine with that. There's times,

807
00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:06,720
Speaker 1: like I've said, there's times you need to just drive

808
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:10,520
Speaker 1: down a school zone and go twenty miles an hour.

809
00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:12,440
Speaker 1: There's sometimes you have to take the kids to a

810
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:14,239
Speaker 1: game and you get on the hov lane and you're

811
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:17,440
Speaker 1: going seventy miles. That's it. The number one goal for

812
00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:19,439
Speaker 1: a bus driver is to not hit a kid. Okay,

813
00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:22,479
Speaker 1: that's what a bus driver is supposed to. Don't hit anyone. Okay.

814
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 1: Same with football. Don't turn the ball over, don't make mistakes,

815
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,000
Speaker 1: don't do that. Not to say those are the same,

816
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:29,719
Speaker 1: but you know what I mean. Play with me on

817
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 1: the analogy. But so be safe with the football and

818
00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:37,840
Speaker 1: be smart in your decisions. So to me, Dak Prescott

819
00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 1: needs to be like the guy who was at Mississippi State,

820
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:43,040
Speaker 1: and the guy was early in his career with the Cowboys.

821
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,200
Speaker 1: Run when it's there, don't be afraid, don't think about contract,

822
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:48,080
Speaker 1: don't think about the injury you had against the Giants.

823
00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:50,920
Speaker 1: Don't think about that stuff. Be a football player that

824
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:54,040
Speaker 1: plays quarterback. Not a quarterback trying to be one of

825
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:55,840
Speaker 1: the top quarterbacks in the league and all that. Be

826
00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,160
Speaker 1: a football player. If you're a football player that goes

827
00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 1: out and does that dive and flipping over the end

828
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:03,279
Speaker 1: zone and all that in Arizona, doing those things like

829
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:05,359
Speaker 1: you did a few years ago, if you're that guy,

830
00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,439
Speaker 1: that's what the Cowboys need. Be smart when it's time

831
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:11,000
Speaker 1: to be smart, be aggressive when it's time to be aggressive.

832
00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:14,160
Speaker 1: Just be a football player that plays quarterback. If he's that,

833
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:16,440
Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys are good enough to win.

834
00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:17,120
Speaker 4: All right.

835
00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:19,719
Speaker 1: That is all the time we have for you.

836
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:19,960
Speaker 2: Here.

837
00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:23,600
Speaker 1: We went over we appreciate that. Great calls, great text.

838
00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:26,759
Speaker 1: By far, my favorite show that I've been doing it

839
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,359
Speaker 1: here in this month and a half that we've been doing.

840
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:32,040
Speaker 1: The storyline. This was an outstanding This was what I

841
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,640
Speaker 1: envisioned and I really appreciated. Can't wait to do it

842
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 1: again Friday. It's going to be at eleven o'clock Friday,

843
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:40,640
Speaker 1: different time, and then once we get to next week,

844
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:42,799
Speaker 1: it is going to be the same time every day,

845
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:45,719
Speaker 1: ten o'clock am Central Time. So I understand that the

846
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:49,040
Speaker 1: different times kind of change things up a little bit,

847
00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:50,759
Speaker 1: but can't wait to get started. We got one more

848
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:53,040
Speaker 1: show this week Friday at eleven. I want to hear
