Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
Speaker 2: Cowboys.
Speaker 3: Are you ready for a Break?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 3: Are you ready for a break? Absolutely? Ready for a break? Yeah,
Speaker 3: and so much for that.
Speaker 1: It's time for the Break on Dallas Cowboys dot Com.
Speaker 3: With mbar Garcia.
Speaker 4: Brian brought us Nick Harris and Derek Eagleton.
Speaker 5: Welcome into the Break presented by l g O led Evo.
Speaker 5: I am your host for the first time, Nick Harris
Speaker 5: alongside Vochlum Already Bryant brought us.
Speaker 6: We're about to get crazy up in here.
Speaker 5: I think all the bosses are out of the building
Speaker 5: getting ready for schedule release. So we're just gonna go
Speaker 5: until they cut us off and see what happens from here.
Speaker 7: I just want to make it incredibly clear, man. I
Speaker 7: don't work here, man, I just show up. I make
Speaker 7: airbody tune for watch party.
Speaker 2: He's going to read ads for us today. That'd be fun.
Speaker 7: That ain't true, man. I'm just here to make people smile.
Speaker 7: I don't even have a voice on the Big the
Speaker 7: Big Voice guy.
Speaker 3: They don't even say vas.
Speaker 2: Will. They figured out you're somewhat of a valuable piece
Speaker 2: The big test is.
Speaker 8: The big test is that guy's on vacation right now,
Speaker 8: so as soon as he gets back, you'll have one.
Speaker 3: I'm on vacation too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll see. Well, the test is to see if
Speaker 2: you can do this. Read. If that's the case, you
Speaker 2: get your name mentioned.
Speaker 7: See what you gotta do is butcher it purposely. Yeah,
Speaker 7: and then enough ask you to do it again. I
Speaker 7: don't want that.
Speaker 2: We had some coaches that did that in my life.
Speaker 2: We sent them on missions to do stuff and they
Speaker 2: messed it up so bad we never asked him to
Speaker 2: do it again.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna cuss Nick Harris hosting.
Speaker 1: Sorry.
Speaker 5: We took all the rails and that was that what
Speaker 5: Bill Parcells was expecting when he sit you down in
Speaker 5: New York to get the.
Speaker 2: No no, no no man. When I when I had
Speaker 2: to go to New York that time, that was actually
Speaker 2: pretty that was interesting. But we shod a coach one
Speaker 2: time in Green Bay to go sit with a player
Speaker 2: after the draft, Like we were really interested in this
Speaker 2: player at UCLA and we were not going to draft it,
Speaker 2: but we wanted to show that, hey, we really cared
Speaker 2: about him, and we sent a coach and the coach.
Speaker 2: You know, he got to the airport and like, hey,
Speaker 2: do you get it all done? He goes, no, the
Speaker 2: Jets came in and got the guy. And We're like,
Speaker 2: with the Jets there with him, and he goes, no, no,
Speaker 2: he just you know, the kid wanted to go the Jets.
Speaker 2: So and I'm like, you didn't recruit him or anything
Speaker 2: like that. So naw, that coach, he screwed it up
Speaker 2: so bad that we never asked him to do anything
Speaker 2: ever again. So mission accomplished if he never wanted to
Speaker 2: do it again.
Speaker 6: Yeah, he's got a happier wife at home, probably, yeah.
Speaker 2: Probably.
Speaker 5: So we got some schedule release things to talk about, guys.
Speaker 5: Oh do we nick it is?
Speaker 3: It is fun.
Speaker 6: Seventeen game schedule coming out tonight.
Speaker 5: I wish they would all just do it at one time,
Speaker 5: but we're going to ease it out and just tease
Speaker 5: it the whole day and eventually we'll get the whole thing.
Speaker 6: Whenever it does happen.
Speaker 2: It's the game now. It's a game to try and
Speaker 2: figure it out.
Speaker 6: It really is.
Speaker 5: Four games have been released, either officially from the NFL
Speaker 5: or reported.
Speaker 6: We can talk about the opening game. Let's start with that.
Speaker 5: Against the Philadelphia Eagles in Philadelphia Thursday Night Football NBC. Uh,
Speaker 5: they're gonna see the banner go up at Lincoln Financial Field.
Speaker 6: What are you all thoughts on this?
Speaker 2: Keeping I'm keeping the team in the locker room the
Speaker 2: whole time this is going on.
Speaker 6: No, that's kind of soft. You can't do.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not coming out there for that. I'm not
Speaker 2: you can. You can drop that banner and fire the
Speaker 2: fireworks and all that, and then we'll come running out
Speaker 2: after that.
Speaker 5: I'd rather have the whole team on the sideline staring
Speaker 5: at it, looking at it happening.
Speaker 2: Well, of course you would, because you want a story
Speaker 2: out of this. You're gonna make some kind of story.
Speaker 2: You're gonna say the.
Speaker 6: Story would be if they stood in the locker room.
Speaker 3: That would be the start.
Speaker 2: I'm keeping my team in the locker room on this one.
Speaker 3: What would George Pickens do?
Speaker 6: We don't want to know.
Speaker 3: I want to know.
Speaker 2: I think George Pickens go out there and cause problems.
Speaker 7: I think the whole team should adopt that type of
Speaker 7: mentality for real, because I'm just.
Speaker 2: Now, what what would George Pickens do?
Speaker 7: I don't have anything positive to say about the schedule
Speaker 7: release that particular. But I mean, but just if you're
Speaker 7: there week one, at least we know Dek is healthy,
Speaker 7: all right, cool, Dek's yeah, and not going ceramic? What
Speaker 7: is this plastic glass or whatever? Hey, you know Deck
Speaker 7: should be healthy week won. So at least we get
Speaker 7: a healthy deck Eagles game or whatever. Man, But I
Speaker 7: don't really care about the banners coming down. The biggest
Speaker 7: hurt was back in February and January with that, you know,
Speaker 7: so I'm past being upset about the Eagles dropping banner.
Speaker 3: It is what it is.
Speaker 7: But I got four, and I feel good about four
Speaker 7: going into all those games.
Speaker 6: I think there's a lot of positives to draw on.
Speaker 6: You talk about being healthy going in a Week one.
Speaker 2: You gave up on the banner thing real quick, didn't you.
Speaker 5: If well, I'm saying there are positives to draw up on.
Speaker 5: Whenever you look at the game itself. They are healthy
Speaker 5: as long as preseason doesn't jeopardize that.
Speaker 6: We've seen that happen in the past, for sure.
Speaker 5: But also, it's gonna be good weather in September in Philadelphia,
Speaker 5: and you take that for what it is. I think
Speaker 5: whenever we saw that Philadelphia game on the schedule last
Speaker 5: year and saw December twenty eighth or whatever it was,
Speaker 5: we expected a snowstorm, ended up being a beautiful day
Speaker 5: in Philadelphia. But nevertheless, that certainly helps at the end.
Speaker 2: Of the day, Nick, I will tell you this, I
Speaker 2: think the Cowboys have an advantage in one area here
Speaker 2: going into this game, being it's gonna be week one
Speaker 2: and watch and I have talked about that as well
Speaker 2: on our show, the podcast that we do that We're
Speaker 2: doing all Right podcasts on YouTube. We talked about that
Speaker 2: that the Cowboys maybe have an advantage here with the
Speaker 2: new coaching staff. Kind of wanted to know your thoughts.
Speaker 5: On that that they have an advantage in the first game.
Speaker 2: Yep, because because a lot of the new that that
Speaker 2: that really the Eagles are you know, they're yeah, sure,
Speaker 2: you put so much into that first game and trying
Speaker 2: to get ready. But you know, with the Cowboys having
Speaker 2: a new coaching staff, with potentially with with Brian Schottenheimer
Speaker 2: being a play card, maybe you could get an idea
Speaker 2: on flues, but you don't have an idea of how
Speaker 2: he's going to use Micah Parsons and maybe Fowler and
Speaker 2: some others, and how he's going to play some coverages.
Speaker 2: I think that the Eagles might be flying a little
Speaker 2: bit blind here. Now maybe we could say the same
Speaker 2: thing about the Cowboys with a new offensive coordinator for them.
Speaker 2: But I kind of feel like though that that the
Speaker 2: Eagles might not know as much about you as maybe
Speaker 2: you will know about them in Week one.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's that's pretty fair when you factor that in
Speaker 5: the fact that there's going to be a lot of
Speaker 5: there's not gonna be a lot of tape on what
Speaker 5: exactly the Cowboys are going to be doing early in
Speaker 5: the season with this new coaching staff.
Speaker 6: There's not a better team you can play in the
Speaker 6: Week one if you could choose.
Speaker 5: When you factor in that aspect of it, Hey, choose
Speaker 5: your opponent, I think you would choose the Eagles of
Speaker 5: seventeen times out of seventeen.
Speaker 7: Also, too, the Cowboys have a general idea of how
Speaker 7: to deal with those Eagles guys. Okay, this is how
Speaker 7: we've dealt with Brown over the years. You know, the
Speaker 7: wide receiver cord of the running backs of old line. This
Speaker 7: is how we kind of deal with those guys. I
Speaker 7: think the Cowboys would be they have such an opportunity
Speaker 7: here and I'm always poo pooring on the last administration
Speaker 7: play calling. As long as these wire receivers aren't just
Speaker 7: running a field and turning around at an eighty percent clip,
Speaker 7: that is not my opinion.
Speaker 3: That's the numbers. Brian Bros Looked it up for me.
Speaker 7: Eighty percent clip running, curls, hitches, just this repetitive offensive
Speaker 7: style or whatever. You can simply be much better by
Speaker 7: just broadening your offense. Clay dam is going to have
Speaker 7: a big hand in that. But then you finally have
Speaker 7: this idea. If I got two legit dudes on outside,
Speaker 7: I think it's going to open up everything, and then
Speaker 7: it's gonna get your run game going, and then it's
Speaker 7: gonna give fer back and then Jaya and Blue is
Speaker 7: going to be catching stuff. I don't think the Eagles
Speaker 7: have they well, I don't think they have not seen
Speaker 7: that from us. The Eagles kind of have this plan
Speaker 7: to where where we're gonna deal with CDN. What they'll
Speaker 7: do well, Ferguson is the next guy because Dak loves
Speaker 7: tight end. Dak bails out tight endor, he gets bailed
Speaker 7: out by tight end.
Speaker 3: Jake.
Speaker 7: Ferguson can't be the second read on defense. Now if
Speaker 7: you're the Eagles, so good luck to them figuring that out.
Speaker 5: Yeah, getting everybody healthy, It's it's gonna be a fun
Speaker 5: Week one match.
Speaker 2: Now your corner. So that's the question you're gonna about
Speaker 2: going in and how you're gonna I think there's a
Speaker 2: couple of questions, and well, well, you know, we've got
Speaker 2: time before we get some ta's mini camps things like that,
Speaker 2: before we get to Oxnard. But the left tackle spot,
Speaker 2: you know, that's going to be you know, a concern there.
Speaker 2: And now I know there's some people that kind of
Speaker 2: thinking about the matchups inside, you know, for the Cowboys,
Speaker 2: I'm not so much worried about that, you know, with
Speaker 2: the with now, I might be worried a little bit
Speaker 2: about what happens a defensive tackle with the one technique,
Speaker 2: But I just the focus for me right now is
Speaker 2: about that that left tackle spot and what's gonna happen
Speaker 2: at the one you.
Speaker 7: Know, Brian to that point, since Wenna have a real
Speaker 7: run down today, to that point, Brian shouts out to
Speaker 7: Nick Harris. He posts a lot of fantastic things on
Speaker 7: the social media's there, but what's the name of the
Speaker 7: Dallas hockey team?
Speaker 2: Because I'm not hot stars.
Speaker 7: Okay, So there's a viral clip going around about the
Speaker 7: stars and all that, and there's a lot of hubbub
Speaker 7: online that Cooper BB.
Speaker 3: Done got thick as hell and then think as hell
Speaker 3: he thick or not.
Speaker 7: But that's the point though, right the off season, get bigger,
Speaker 7: get stronger. But there's also a growing concern that they
Speaker 7: also saw guiding up there on the screen and Tyler
Speaker 7: Giton didn't look as thick as BB did. Now we're
Speaker 7: all looking for him to get bigger and stronger and
Speaker 7: all this kind of stuff. I don't know if you
Speaker 7: want to just swerve off topic like this, but that's
Speaker 7: kind of going around now. Is that something that you
Speaker 7: guys worry about since you mentioned since you mentioned tackling
Speaker 7: particular bran, if he came back bigger and stronger, we
Speaker 7: feel good about that. But he looked a little slim
Speaker 7: on screen there, like you're reading too much in it,
Speaker 7: or you're gonna wait until June is your life.
Speaker 5: I'll take your point and I'll tie it into the
Speaker 5: Eagles defensive line. Go ahead, let's go, and then answer
Speaker 5: that answer.
Speaker 2: No, no, go ahead, I think you're I think you're
Speaker 2: onto it.
Speaker 6: Go ahead, I'm saying. Answer with that, Oh.
Speaker 2: I see what you're saying. You know what, I I
Speaker 2: just think you're dealing with a guy that's never going
Speaker 2: to be big. I think he's a long limbed guy.
Speaker 2: I don't think he's ever going to be I think
Speaker 2: he's one of these guys it's probably not going to
Speaker 2: look sloppy, fat or anything like that. I think he's
Speaker 2: a long limbed guy. I'm not surely sure how much
Speaker 2: strength he can really really uh uh build onto his body.
Speaker 2: I think he can add some strength, but I think
Speaker 2: the way his limbs are and stuff, he's just too long.
Speaker 2: And yeah, they could work on things. The thing where
Speaker 2: his game is going to translate is how good of
Speaker 2: an athlete he is. And so you know, it's going
Speaker 2: to be about foot quickness, it's going to be about lenked,
Speaker 2: it's going to be about positioning. I don't think he's
Speaker 2: ever going to be a guy that's going to make
Speaker 2: you forget Tyron Smith. You know, I don't. I don't
Speaker 2: think he's ever going to play with that kind of power,
Speaker 2: but I think he could play with athletic ability. And
Speaker 2: so you know, we'll see what the Eagles and what
Speaker 2: they're going to do with their on the edges, you know,
Speaker 2: and having to replace a couple of guys there. We'll
Speaker 2: see how those matchups. I mean, they've got you know,
Speaker 2: Smith and guys like that. They could kind of rush,
Speaker 2: but you know, we'll you know, the thing with the
Speaker 2: thing with Tyler guy and I just don't think that
Speaker 2: he is going to ever be a swolled up guy.
Speaker 2: I just don't with the way his body type is,
Speaker 2: I don't believe that's going to be the case.
Speaker 5: We two home opener against the New York Giants. First
Speaker 5: look at Russell Wilson with the New York Giants as
Speaker 5: well as their new pass rushing weapon and Abdul Carter
Speaker 5: we got. We talked a lot about that guy on
Speaker 5: the Draft Show. It's a fun home home opener here.
Speaker 5: There's some new pieces in New York. Early thoughts on this.
Speaker 2: One, Well, you don't think Jackson Dart might win this
Speaker 2: thing off the jump.
Speaker 5: Off the jump. I don't think he wins it off
Speaker 5: the job. I don't think they would have investd.
Speaker 2: So you're thinking you're going to see Jackson Dart and
Speaker 2: Week fourteen or something like that.
Speaker 6: Probably probably if this thing gets really off the rails.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I you know what, I the one thing the
Speaker 2: Giants that we've we've talked about is, you know, how
Speaker 2: well they play inside. I think they've added some pieces
Speaker 2: along that defense, their offensive line. We'll see how that
Speaker 2: all plays out. The quarterback situation. The Cowboys have had
Speaker 2: some success against Russell Wilson in the past, you know,
Speaker 2: I think that, but we might be in a situation
Speaker 2: right now. I mean the one that always that scares
Speaker 2: me on their side on the offensive side of the ball,
Speaker 2: is that neighbors. You know, that's the one I think
Speaker 2: that that you know, we all need to kind of
Speaker 2: worry about there. But you know, gonna get a lot
Speaker 2: of targets. Just hasn't you know, hasn't had many opportunities
Speaker 2: to score touchdowns for them. So Week two is probably
Speaker 2: a good time to catch the Giants.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't. I don't look at the Giants in
Speaker 3: that kind of way. I think as long as the Cowboys.
Speaker 7: Are healthy in there doing what they need to do,
Speaker 7: I don't really see the Giants as a as a
Speaker 7: big issue. Uh, it'll be a fun game or whatever,
Speaker 7: but we could just kind of run back the previous
Speaker 7: topic or whatever. Hey, we're bigger and stronger in the middle,
Speaker 7: and I think that's going to be important for you.
Speaker 7: You know, Kavon and Abdul is probably gonna get you
Speaker 7: some problems on outside. You know, it depends, but I
Speaker 7: think you really want to keep Nexon Lawrence intap.
Speaker 2: But you know, it is what it It might be good,
Speaker 2: but you fake faced the giants early. If they got
Speaker 2: the young guys, like you said with with Carter and stuff,
Speaker 2: that maybe that he hasn't feared he won't fare out
Speaker 2: the pass rushing stuff until later on. Yeah, you're gonna
Speaker 2: get an opportunity to play them again, you know, in
Speaker 2: New York, and you know, we'll see. But sometimes with
Speaker 2: these rookies, it might take them two three games to
Speaker 2: kind of figure some things out. So yeah, it's it's
Speaker 2: that that would be kind of an advantage I think
Speaker 2: that you might have there.
Speaker 5: I'll tell you it's a hell of a task opening
Speaker 5: up against two divisional opponents in the first two weeks,
Speaker 5: two really good defensive lines. It's gonna be a task
Speaker 5: for Tyler Booker. I know we've talked about. In his
Speaker 5: introductory press conference, somebody asked, Hey, who are you most
Speaker 5: excited to go up against he said, Jalen Carter. He's
Speaker 5: gonna get that wish in week one, and then in
Speaker 5: week two he's gonna get a really talented defensive interior
Speaker 5: with guys like Dexter Lawrence, even Chauncey Golston back in
Speaker 5: back in the back in the fold as an opponent.
Speaker 6: So go ahead.
Speaker 7: I also said this two nick I was on the
Speaker 7: internet complaining about this, this is not the year to
Speaker 7: all right, Tyler Booker. You're a rookie, So you're gonna
Speaker 7: go over there with the threes and you're gonna work
Speaker 7: out with the threes, and you're gonna get limited reps
Speaker 7: because you got to earn your way around here. I
Speaker 7: think that'll be a very non nonsensical way to look
Speaker 7: at I think if you're an older coach, you maybe
Speaker 7: want to do that old that old thing.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 7: I think you're gonna need this guy. You're gonna need him.
Speaker 7: You're gonna need Donovan as a rotational pass rush. You're
Speaker 7: gonna need Jayaen Blue as a rotational runner. So I
Speaker 7: would rather those guys get as many reps with the
Speaker 7: ones as they can early. I need to know what
Speaker 7: Booker looks like versus Osa and Mizi day one because
Speaker 7: he's gonna have Jordan Davis and Jalen Carter day one,
Speaker 7: so I don't. I don't want him to mess around with.
Speaker 2: So you're against the whole earning the star thing, which
Speaker 2: I totally agree with you, but I just get everybody
Speaker 2: ready to play.
Speaker 7: Man, if you, if you Trey Shawn Holden, man earn
Speaker 7: your start because you literally got to go out there
Speaker 7: and play, no direspecting him, but you literally have to
Speaker 7: go out there and play and make plays to earn
Speaker 7: your start. I think that's different to where you take
Speaker 7: Tyler Booker that you need and say, all right, your
Speaker 7: first rep is gonna be Denzel Dacks, and in no
Speaker 7: disrespect to Denzel Dacks, but you.
Speaker 3: Got Jayalen Carter day one. Yeah, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: So I think it's you drafted to these.
Speaker 2: Guys for a reason to play, play them, play him,
Speaker 2: don't don't. Don't act like it though, Okay, we need
Speaker 2: to they get more reps over there, No, they need
Speaker 2: the quality reps is what they need.
Speaker 5: And that's probably a question for Brian Schottenheimer's OTAs open
Speaker 5: up next week. I believe the first press conference will
Speaker 5: be next Tuesday. So you know, do these rookies have
Speaker 5: an initiation period. If they do, how long does that
Speaker 5: last does a carry into camp? Because clearly off these
Speaker 5: first two games, these guys are gonna have to be
Speaker 5: ready to go off the jump. And Tyler Guiden, it
Speaker 5: never really felt like he was ready last year, and
Speaker 5: no wonder how much of that was how he was
Speaker 5: used at camp. Now, BB, on the other hand, looked
Speaker 5: like he was ready early on.
Speaker 2: Your career.
Speaker 6: Yeah, he was.
Speaker 5: He was used the He was used the same way
Speaker 5: as Guyden was during camp as far as earning his
Speaker 5: spot and figuring out his role. So you wonder if
Speaker 5: it's just a case by case basis To.
Speaker 7: That point, though, Scheinenheimer can say what he want. He
Speaker 7: can be coaching pr Guy and say what he want,
Speaker 7: but when it comes to the actual reps, we need
Speaker 7: to see book up there first.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean to me, if the the the attention
Speaker 2: is like they're gonna they're gonna be really good, and like, oh,
Speaker 2: we got Hoffman, we got TJ. Bass, We've got all
Speaker 2: these guys that we want to awesome Richards, we want
Speaker 2: to try these Isaac Guard and all that fine, but
Speaker 2: the bottom line is the twelfth overall pick needs to
Speaker 2: be right there with the first line. I'm plugging playing
Speaker 2: that guy and going off to jump. I'm not gonna
Speaker 2: sit there and masquerade and worry about feelings this time.
Speaker 2: I'm trying to figure out this offensive line. And if
Speaker 2: you sit there and masquerade and act like that, oh,
Speaker 2: we got to give these veteran guys a shot and
Speaker 2: all that, then I think you're barking up the wrong tree.
Speaker 5: We're gonna take our first break when we come back.
Speaker 5: The Cowboys have been accustomed to playing on a holiday.
Speaker 5: How about two holiday games this year. We'll talk about
Speaker 5: both of them when we come back.
Speaker 2: This is the break.

Speaker 7: E l G LG all all the TVs in my
Speaker 7: house are LG O led l T E s.
Speaker 6: You may as well have just read the read the read.
Speaker 6: It would have been a lot better.
Speaker 2: Than Yeah, you could do the next one for a
Speaker 2: T and T.
Speaker 6: A T and T one, it's it's three words.
Speaker 3: I don't work.
Speaker 5: I'm going to say we're eventually gonna get a watch
Speaker 5: to start reading some ads. All right, guys, two holiday games.
Speaker 5: We'll start with the first one that has been a
Speaker 5: fly reported by the league. Kansas City Chiefs against the
Speaker 5: Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day. I love this matchup for
Speaker 5: a multitude of reasons. One, these two franchises have always
Speaker 5: been distant cousins and a Chellow Texans. Dallas Texans started
Speaker 5: back in nineteen sixty, right in the same year that
Speaker 5: the Dallas Cowboys started. They were an AFL team. The
Speaker 5: Lamar Hunt family still has roots in Highland Park in
Speaker 5: the Dallas area. They still have grandchildren that live in
Speaker 5: the Dallas area, and now everybody gets to come together
Speaker 5: at and T Stadium on Thanksgiving Day. I just love
Speaker 5: the history around this. And then Patrick Mahomes, he's being
Speaker 5: an East Texas boy, grew up watching the Cowboys, I
Speaker 5: assume on Thanksgiving as well. So there's a lot of
Speaker 5: cool aspects of this matchup.
Speaker 7: Playing the Super Bowl winning the Super Bowl loser kind
Speaker 7: of sucks, don't it.
Speaker 3: Just you know what I'm saying, Playing.
Speaker 7: Both of these guys where the bad teams when we
Speaker 7: line up against them to get some easy win not
Speaker 7: this year.
Speaker 2: Not this year.
Speaker 3: Yeah, man, Kansas City is going to be the Panthers.
Speaker 3: That's it.
Speaker 7: I mean even they ran the ball on you a
Speaker 7: little bit of COVID years ago. But yeah, I mean,
Speaker 7: you know, it's a it's cool to be tested. And
Speaker 7: if I could just tie this all up in a boat,
Speaker 7: right content advice, here we go. At least we get
Speaker 7: a test in week one that'll get us ready for
Speaker 7: a game like this in week whatever it is, fourteen,
Speaker 7: fifteen and sixty and whatever it is. That makes me
Speaker 7: feel better that we're not just opening up the season
Speaker 7: with a trash can or you know, Cleveland Browns or
Speaker 7: something like that, and then the rest of the way
Speaker 7: we just terrible because we haven't been tested. I kind
Speaker 7: of like the idea that you play a tough team
Speaker 7: and by the time you get to the Chiefs, you go, hey,
Speaker 7: we've played tough teams already.
Speaker 3: So that's my take about the Chiefs.
Speaker 2: This team had one of the best drafts I thought
Speaker 2: from my standpoint, we were doing the Draft Show and
Speaker 2: things like that, when you talk about guys like Josh
Speaker 2: Simmons and Jalen Rolls Royal, So I'm really interested to
Speaker 2: see how the disadvantage here. I always look for the
Speaker 2: advantages and the disadvantages here. And usually when you play
Speaker 2: a team on Thanksgiving on that short week, depending on
Speaker 2: what happens the week before, it turns into prep work
Speaker 2: and do you have enough prep. This is not a
Speaker 2: common opponent. Sometimes you get whether the Commanders, the Giants,
Speaker 2: the Eagles. You know, it's one of those division teams.
Speaker 2: It's kind of a tradition on Thursday football to maybe
Speaker 2: be a little bit more of a team that you've
Speaker 2: seen in the division. So when it is a short week,
Speaker 2: the prep is you don't look as bad. I think
Speaker 2: both teams might be under it a little bit here though.
Speaker 2: I always just worry about playing a team you don't
Speaker 2: always play and then trying to prep with that. You know,
Speaker 2: the Kansas City Chiefs have a lot of weapons. I
Speaker 2: just talked about the draft. They're the team that's constantly
Speaker 2: winning the the you know, the AFC, playing in Super
Speaker 2: Bowls and stuff like that. You never know how that
Speaker 2: the season is going to play out till that point.
Speaker 2: There could be injuries along the way and a team
Speaker 2: you think is going to be very good all of
Speaker 2: a sudden loses their quarterback and then they're not as
Speaker 2: good as they need to be. But this is going
Speaker 2: to be a difficult one maybe for both teams because
Speaker 2: of the fact that it's not a common opponent, and it
Speaker 2: is a short week, and we've in the past, we've
Speaker 2: seen not a lot of practice time between Sunday and
Speaker 2: Thursday when that game's played.
Speaker 5: One of the first things that popped in my mind
Speaker 5: when I saw this game being scheduled, not only the hit,
Speaker 5: but the fact that the Marvin overshown might be back
Speaker 5: in time for this game. The current expectation is that
Speaker 5: he comes back mid season. I would anticipate that happens
Speaker 5: well before this game. I wouldn't expect this to be
Speaker 5: his first game back either, And then not too long after,
Speaker 5: he posted on his Instagram story, oh yeah, I'm active
Speaker 5: in this So that's gonna be a fun storyline to
Speaker 5: watch as we get ready for that Thanksgiving game.
Speaker 7: Would you guys rather play tough teams early in the
Speaker 7: season to kind of get used to playing tough teams
Speaker 7: and all that kind of stuff, or would you rather
Speaker 7: play him later in the season to where you're in
Speaker 7: mid season form and you're probably a little more used
Speaker 7: to what the Cowboys do, and you've built the Cowboy
Speaker 7: way at this point.
Speaker 2: There's a couple of ways it's going to go. If
Speaker 2: you'd have played the New Orleans Saints in Week fourteen,
Speaker 2: it would have probably been a W. But you play
Speaker 2: them in week two, that's a big l. It looks bad. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you play a play a team like the Cincinnati Bengals
Speaker 2: early in the year, you get a W. You played
Speaker 2: the Cincinnati Bengals late in the year, and I've seen this.
Speaker 2: I know, I think Sincena beat Dallas last time, but
Speaker 2: you know there's been times.
Speaker 3: Where they lose early.
Speaker 2: Punt you get in there, Yeah, yeah, exactly. You you're
Speaker 2: in a situation where you're you know, usually some of
Speaker 2: these teams you play very early, like like Cincinnati was
Speaker 2: the one team that just popped into my head of
Speaker 2: when you play them early, you seem to find a
Speaker 2: way to beat them, but when you play them late,
Speaker 2: they demolish you. So it kind of works both ways
Speaker 2: when you when you think about playing an early or
Speaker 2: playing a late depending on the quality of the team.
Speaker 2: Some of these teams have a track record of being
Speaker 2: slow starters. Jeez, I think, yeah, Dallas, how about Dallas, Dallas.
Speaker 2: The last few years, it's been a team that's been
Speaker 2: a little bit of a slow starter, you know, so
Speaker 2: teams later in the year, you know, might be not
Speaker 2: wanting to play the Cowboys that way.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Under underlying storyline of this game is the Peyton Hendershot
Speaker 5: revenge game. It's also the Eric Scott junior revenge game.
Speaker 5: Y'all remember him, Yeah, Southern, he.
Speaker 6: Went to Southern miss He was the Southern old man.
Speaker 3: Look once they leave, man, my brains is hender sad.
Speaker 5: Even the Hattiesburg guy over here, all right. The second
Speaker 5: Holiday game, which was a reported by good guy out
Speaker 5: in Washington, DC, Kevin Sheehan, he works on radio station
Speaker 5: out there in DC, since confirmed by the fort Ward
Speaker 5: Star Telegram, the Dallas Cowboys will travel to the nation's
Speaker 5: capital to take on the Washington Commanders on Christmas Day.
Speaker 5: Dallas has played on Christmas Day five times in the
Speaker 5: team sixty four year history. Last one was in twenty ten.
Speaker 5: That if you remember that, that's the David Beeler extra
Speaker 5: point game against the Arizona Cardinals. But early thoughts on
Speaker 5: this one and playing on Christmas.
Speaker 7: I have a hard time respecting teams that can't beat
Speaker 7: backup quarterbacks for the Dallas Cowboys, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: So the Washington.
Speaker 7: Football whiz and look, this could be you know, rivalry visit.
Speaker 7: Because I am a fan. I'm not a reporter or
Speaker 7: a be riting that like that. I'm I'm just a
Speaker 7: fan on the microphone here. You know, I just think
Speaker 7: that the Washington Football Wizards are just gonna take.
Speaker 3: A little bit back.
Speaker 7: You know, I don't wizards, well that's what I call
Speaker 7: because I don't respect another calling commanders now. But I
Speaker 7: just think that, you know, rookie quarterbacks, they have advantages
Speaker 7: as rookie quarterbacks, but we have to see what they
Speaker 7: look like as year two quarterbacks, and they take me
Speaker 7: to look a little different. So the Washington Football Wars
Speaker 7: are going to have to show me in year two
Speaker 7: before I respect them too too much.
Speaker 3: But it should be a fun game. It's expected to
Speaker 3: be a fun game, so we'll see.
Speaker 2: Yeah, another Thursday game though for the Cowboys there, but
Speaker 2: here's now a division opponent, you know, a very very
Speaker 2: difficult time. The Cowboys are used to playing that Thanksgiving
Speaker 2: Day game and used to practicing during the holidays and
Speaker 2: things like that. That's you know, Christmas time is different
Speaker 2: for a lot of players. A lot of these guys
Speaker 2: have young kids, you know, young families and stuff like that,
Speaker 2: and so all of a sudden is your focus where
Speaker 2: it needs to be. This game could be huge when
Speaker 2: it comes to division standings and maybe playoff scene, depending
Speaker 2: on what happens with the Eagles, what happens with the Commanders,
Speaker 2: what happens with the Cowboys. This could be the difference
Speaker 2: between you maybe being the division winner or the leader
Speaker 2: and going into the last week or so, or you
Speaker 2: being a team that's now gonna need help. So short
Speaker 2: week again on a Thursday, holidays with the family situations
Speaker 2: and stuff like that. What you do worry about, though,
Speaker 2: is if the season is done, then this is a
Speaker 2: game that's gonna mean absolutely nothing, because you know the
Speaker 2: players will they'll focus on, yeah, we're gonna play the game,
Speaker 2: but you know, we've we've got family things and stuff
Speaker 2: and that we're trying just to play out the string.
Speaker 2: Or it could be one of the biggest games of
Speaker 2: the year. And so that's the great mystery about this
Speaker 2: particular game. But again, another game on Thursday. It always
Speaker 2: kind of bothers me in that way.
Speaker 6: A couple things to note about this one.
Speaker 5: The Commanders will be playing the Eagles just five days
Speaker 5: before this game.
Speaker 2: There is soo's gonna be a tough stretch for them.
Speaker 5: It's gonna be hot, It's gonna be a tough stretch
Speaker 5: for them. This is the next to last week of
Speaker 5: the season. You'll be going into the final weekuh with
Speaker 5: with the many buy basically which by process of elimination,
Speaker 5: we can rule that the Cowboys will be playing at
Speaker 5: thes in week eighteen, so they'll get good ten days
Speaker 5: of rest before.
Speaker 6: That final game against the Giants at midlife.
Speaker 3: Yeah sounds good. Yeah, well, you know, yeah whatever.
Speaker 6: That's how I feel about schedule release.
Speaker 5: I don't I have Nothing's like, you got to play
Speaker 5: the teams at some point, you know, it's.
Speaker 2: Well in what order you play them in, I think
Speaker 2: does make a little bit of a difference. And I
Speaker 2: think the schedule, I think they sure this is all
Speaker 2: really created for TVs and matchups and doubleheader weekends and
Speaker 2: you know, make sure that Amazon has a good Thursday
Speaker 2: night game because they're spending a billion dollars on this stuff.
Speaker 2: But it you know, as as a guy in the
Speaker 2: former front office. You know, you look at this, You're
Speaker 2: like thinking, Okay, what shape is my team going to
Speaker 2: be in? You know, when we're having to play games
Speaker 2: on on you know, you know, the one thing I
Speaker 2: always appreciated was the old Sunday noon game that that,
Speaker 2: to me, is as good as it gets. But now
Speaker 2: the Cowboys, with the way the popularity of course has
Speaker 2: been for you know, the whole time is you know,
Speaker 2: you're looking at a team that plays on all these
Speaker 2: different nights in different days, and it you know, it could,
Speaker 2: it could. It could cause some problems, you know, with
Speaker 2: your team, and is your team good enough to be
Speaker 2: able to get through and navigate the good ones? Can't?
Speaker 2: You know, we'll see with the new coaching staff, can
Speaker 2: they navigate The one thing that I do respect about
Speaker 2: what Mike Mike McCarthy did. It did appear in news games.
Speaker 2: And I'm sure somebody's gonna kill me for saying this,
Speaker 2: but it did appear that those games did it. Whether
Speaker 2: it was a Thursday game or whatever. They they were
Speaker 2: ready to play. We'll see if Brian Schottenheimer and his
Speaker 2: guys can can do the same thing.
Speaker 5: Brian, remind me, were you in the building in twenty ten. Yes,
Speaker 5: do you remember the Cardinals Christmas game? And yes, memory
Speaker 5: stand out about that.
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Uh did Romo hurt his hand in that game? Or
Speaker 2: do we break a foot? A punter break a foot
Speaker 2: with that?
Speaker 5: That was a different Cardinals game. I think this one
Speaker 5: was the David Beeler extra point game.
Speaker 2: See, I don't remember. I don't remember exactly how we
Speaker 2: got down to that. Did we miss the extra point there?
Speaker 5: Would we miss the extra point with like less than
Speaker 5: a minute ago that would have tied it.
Speaker 6: And put it in overtime?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 6: I remember there seven twenty six.
Speaker 2: There were some crazy There were some crazy cowboy games
Speaker 2: where Tony Romo busted up his finger and won. I think, uh,
Speaker 2: there was a game where where Mcat McBriar broke his
Speaker 2: foot in the game. I was thinking that they are
Speaker 2: all kind of run together that way.
Speaker 3: He was watching the game. How are you when that
Speaker 3: game was?
Speaker 6: It was ten years old? Yeah, yeah, here's what happened.
Speaker 5: It was a touchdown with a minute forty seven to
Speaker 5: go up twenty six twenty four, David Bieler missed the
Speaker 5: extra point and then the Cardinals kick the game winning
Speaker 5: field goal. What's ten seconds left? Twenty seven, twenty six. Yeah,
Speaker 5: and they dominated that game. They just turned the ball
Speaker 5: over three times and that was That was a tough
Speaker 5: part of it.
Speaker 2: But it's curious hard to play in the desert. We've
Speaker 2: kind of figured that out, man. That just whether whether
Speaker 2: it's the old Cardinals that Sun Devil Stadium or the
Speaker 2: new place, it's not a very good place for the
Speaker 2: Cowboys to play.
Speaker 5: Would you qualify Mexico City as the desert? The misspent
Speaker 5: reality in twenty twenty six?
Speaker 2: Are you looking for It's not like you're looking forward
Speaker 2: to that game.
Speaker 6: I am. I I would love that if that ends
Speaker 6: up being the case, and it could be the Cardinals.
Speaker 2: Who knows, okay of disappointed for London folk folk overseas
Speaker 2: or UK folks that they didn't get the Jets, But
Speaker 2: I can understand the Jets not wanting to give up.
Speaker 2: I don't know how if you're you know, Jets ownership,
Speaker 2: and every time you see the Cowboys show up with
Speaker 2: against the game against the Giants that you know, good
Speaker 2: chunk of the stadium has Cowboy fans in it. If
Speaker 2: your Jets ownership, I wouldn't want to give that game
Speaker 2: up either, But I feel bad for our folks over
Speaker 2: the UK, Cowboy fans and stuff, because they they In
Speaker 2: twenty fourteen we played Jacksonville over there. One of the
Speaker 2: greatest NFL experiences I've ever had in my life, with
Speaker 2: just the fans and the atmosphere and all that. It's
Speaker 2: a shame that the Jets didn't give up that game.
Speaker 5: There's a lot of them and now the Cowboys have
Speaker 5: the longest dro out of any team in the NFL.
Speaker 5: As far as going international, the Steelers previously had that,
Speaker 5: but they're going to Doublin this year.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Dan Rooney was an ambassador I think, to Ireland.
Speaker 2: So that's why there's the Rooney family has ties. Of
Speaker 2: course with the last name Rooney, you're gonna have ties
Speaker 2: to Ireland.
Speaker 6: I was talking about.
Speaker 5: I was talking about the international possibilities in twenty twenty
Speaker 5: six on Twitter yesterday and our good friend Laurie Harresh,
Speaker 5: whore you introduced to me at camp, is a dear guy,
Speaker 5: he reminded me, and it's a it's a very valid point.
Speaker 5: The Rams are the home team for the game in Melbourne,
Speaker 5: Australia next year. The Cowboys are scheduled to play at
Speaker 5: the Rams next year. So that is that is a possibility.
Speaker 5: It's a consideration for the league to potentially go down.
Speaker 2: On the well, see, I you know what that is
Speaker 2: like that like that. No, it's a long, long, long trip.
Speaker 2: But hey, but you know what this this team is,
Speaker 2: this team has done over the years. I mean just
Speaker 2: go back through the history of the international game and
Speaker 2: what tech Shram was able to do, you know, in
Speaker 2: the eighties and stuff, and preseason games and now to
Speaker 2: the point where we play games you know, South America.
Speaker 2: I mean, I would not be surprised if we see
Speaker 2: a game in Asia here pretty soon.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Japan would be fun. The Cowboys have played preseason
Speaker 5: games in total, they have they.
Speaker 2: Played that believe it was Atlanta Falcons. I was scouting
Speaker 2: a game with the Giants on preseason game. But that
Speaker 2: was a that was a crazy trip that they went
Speaker 2: on to just to go play that game against Atlanta,
Speaker 2: and I believe it. The Tokyo don't.
Speaker 7: So if they play over there, do we have to
Speaker 7: wake up at two in the morning the Western game
Speaker 7: or do they play at midnight?
Speaker 2: No, No, we gotta, we gotta We're gonna have to
Speaker 2: wake up early to wake.
Speaker 5: That'll be the case in Australia too. Well, yeah, that's
Speaker 5: gonna be fast. Absolutely, yeah, that's gonna be really fascinating.
Speaker 5: All right, we're gonna take our final break when we
Speaker 5: come back. We're just gonna let vatch riff.
Speaker 6: This is the break.

Speaker 7: All right, y'all, y'all ready to riff y'all ready to
Speaker 7: do some stugid away, take it away.
Speaker 3: Nah.
Speaker 7: Man, I was talking to my guy will still in
Speaker 7: the morning. Man, we was talking about some of the
Speaker 7: guys on the roster and some of these roster fights
Speaker 7: that's coming up, and Man, I just wanted to have
Speaker 7: a discussion about brother Sam Williams. Man, I think there's
Speaker 7: so much range in terms of what people could possibly
Speaker 7: think about him. You know, he is a veteran type
Speaker 7: guy and he's coming off the injury, and you know,
Speaker 7: we've seen flashes of him doing some interesting things and
Speaker 7: then we've seen long stretches of him not doing enough.
Speaker 7: Or he'll go on social media and say, boy, I
Speaker 7: need a chance, and then he'll get a chance. Where
Speaker 7: we had on brother Sam Williams d Garrick Sam willis
Speaker 7: what we had on him.
Speaker 6: Well, look at the facts.
Speaker 5: They have drafted a defensive end in the second round
Speaker 5: and now back to back years. You can look at
Speaker 5: Marshaw Kneeland and be like, Okay, that's the DeMarcus Lawrence replacement.
Speaker 5: As I look at it, you look at Donovan Asaraku
Speaker 5: and you kind of see that as you're Sam Williams
Speaker 5: replacement and going into a contract year coming off the injury.
Speaker 5: He's obviously has some issues off the field too. This
Speaker 5: is the Cowboys correctly planning for the event that he
Speaker 5: does not come back one hundred percent. Now, if he does,
Speaker 5: where does he factor into this edge group? Because all
Speaker 5: of a sudden, it's loaded. You got Dante Fowler back
Speaker 5: on a contract that you're paying him enough to where
Speaker 5: he's gonna have to play Donovan Azarako. You spend a
Speaker 5: high enough pick on him, he's gonna have to play
Speaker 5: marshaon neland he's gonna have to play There's this this
Speaker 5: room all of a sudden has gotten pretty crowded.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that to me With Sam, There's two
Speaker 2: ways this can go. For Sam. He could absolutely spit
Speaker 2: the bit and just not do anything and just you know,
Speaker 2: not be competitive and and you know, let these other
Speaker 2: guys take the job and then he get cut and
Speaker 2: feel sorry for himself and go move on, or you know,
Speaker 2: Cowboys move him or something. Or he could try and
Speaker 2: find a way to be a major, major part of
Speaker 2: what they're trying to do you know? And and I
Speaker 2: I kind of feel like though you can't have enough
Speaker 2: pass rushers, you know, you can't have enough guys that
Speaker 2: they can put their hand in the dirt and get
Speaker 2: after the quarterback. And you know, we you know, with
Speaker 2: guys like Kneel and I kind of feel like, you know,
Speaker 2: you look at you know, his situation. How many guys
Speaker 2: on this team do we have are just really kind
Speaker 2: of not pass rushers but really good just can play
Speaker 2: defense and give you occasional.
Speaker 3: Pass rush Him and Turners.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I kind of feel like that to me. You know,
Speaker 2: if if if in fact that Sam Williams is going
Speaker 2: to show up, it's it's not to try and beat
Speaker 2: out one of those guys because I kind of feel
Speaker 2: like they've got a rule. I don't think. I don't
Speaker 2: think Turner or Kneeling threatened him as a pass rusher.
Speaker 2: But all of a sudden, we get in the camp
Speaker 2: and you see him, you know, coming off like you
Speaker 2: know with him, and the one thing you're going to
Speaker 2: notice about Azaraku right off to jump is how low
Speaker 2: he gets the ground and how he's able to dip
Speaker 2: his shoulder. And if he could dip his shoulder and
Speaker 2: get to the quarterback. That's that's what made him a
Speaker 2: great player in the ACC. You know, Boston College is
Speaker 2: not a great team. We talked about him a bunch
Speaker 2: on the Draft Show. This is one of the best
Speaker 2: pass rushers in college football and now you have him.
Speaker 2: So Sam could look at this as the challenge of like, hey,
Speaker 2: I got to be one of those guys, I got
Speaker 2: to be a six', four two hundred and sixty one
Speaker 2: pound pass. Rusher or he could just completely just spit the,
Speaker 2: bit LIKE i said horse racing, term just spit the,
Speaker 2: bit not do anything and get cut or try and
Speaker 2: get traded to another. Teams he's at the fork of
Speaker 2: the road right, now AND i think The cowboys are
Speaker 2: comfortable whatever the FOUR k he. Decides if he wants
Speaker 2: to decide to be great and try and make this
Speaker 2: team and be everything that The cowboys And Jerry jones
Speaker 2: thought he was going to be coming out of, college
Speaker 2: great for. Him but if he decides to be the
Speaker 2: other guy that's not going to work and not going
Speaker 2: to do this and just be a, guy they'll do
Speaker 2: With they'll deal with that down the. ROAD i think
Speaker 2: he's clearly in the fork of the. Road right, Now
Speaker 2: dallas has players that can replace him if he goes
Speaker 2: the wrong way in the fork.
Speaker 5: EASILY i don't want to hijack too far, here but
Speaker 5: as you guys have watched more film on these draft,
Speaker 5: picks as you've watched more film on As, araku do
Speaker 5: you guys feel like you had him justly graded grade
Speaker 5: to too, high graded too? Low how do you guys
Speaker 5: feel about where you guys had?
Speaker 2: HIM i had a twenty. FIFTH i think he was
Speaker 2: my twenty fifth best player on my stack twelve twenty,
Speaker 2: five thirty seven actually had the guard as the thirty
Speaker 2: seventh best. Player there's no. Question when you started to
Speaker 2: look at the draft and just look at the pure
Speaker 2: pass rushers AND i know, again here Is fatch AND
Speaker 2: i doing our podcast on a nightly basis on. YouTube
Speaker 2: we were talking about these. Things we were talking, About,
Speaker 2: hey who were the best pass? Rushers that kid At
Speaker 2: marshall he was one of the best pass. Rushers the
Speaker 2: kid At Penn state one of the best pass. Rushers
Speaker 2: this guy was right there with. Him there were the
Speaker 2: bendis and they're the non. Bendis he was in the
Speaker 2: productive bendis that were making things. Happen so, YEAH i,
Speaker 2: mean there's clearly you talk to people in the organization
Speaker 2: here about. Him it's like he fell into their. Lap
Speaker 2: they were looking, sure they were looking At, jenkins they
Speaker 2: were looking at a, runner they were looking at Maybe.
Speaker 2: Burden the wide receiver picks go off the board ahead
Speaker 2: of a. Boom guy falls in their. Lap probably one
Speaker 2: of the two three best pass rushers in this draft
Speaker 2: just fell to you at forty. Four you can't pass,
Speaker 2: that and they. Didn't good for, Them.
Speaker 7: Nick, harris do you, think do you allegedly assume or
Speaker 7: if somebody taps you on the shoulder made you think about,
Speaker 7: it that they possibly Had donovan ranked higher Than golden And? Abuka, no, okay,
Speaker 7: Okay So donovan was like maybe like a like a
Speaker 7: true two to, them you would, say.
Speaker 6: Yes, oky, absolutely okay.
Speaker 7: ABSOLUTELY i was thinking, about, like you, know what if
Speaker 7: it Wasn't, booker and what if the trade back happened
Speaker 7: and they landed around like twenty, one twenty two or
Speaker 7: something like, that Would donovan be the guy steal or
Speaker 7: would they go for one of those wide receivers that
Speaker 7: they probably haven't there?
Speaker 6: POINT i THINK.
Speaker 5: I think it could have thrown some interesting curveballs into
Speaker 5: the whole. Draft it would have had a ripple effect
Speaker 5: on the rest of the draft BECAUSE i think they
Speaker 5: had some running backs a little bit higher than we
Speaker 5: did in that.
Speaker 7: Range there's a lot of people that think that you
Speaker 7: should have taken The texans trade traded. Back people Think
Speaker 7: booker would be there. ANYWAY i don't think he would
Speaker 7: have been. There but in my, mind if you trade
Speaker 7: back to where The texans, were then you're maybe In
Speaker 7: donovan or one of those wide receiver ranges or. Whatever
Speaker 7: and if you think about how the draft kind of
Speaker 7: plays out from, there Like, revel maybe you're round two
Speaker 7: guy at that. POINT i Think i'm just cool with
Speaker 7: the draft THAT i. Got you, KNOW i don't have
Speaker 7: any remorse for, that trading back With houston and getting extra.
Speaker 3: PICKS i like this this group THAT i have.
Speaker 5: Here also some hindsight there with That houston, draft and
Speaker 5: the report was that it involved future. Capital they gave
Speaker 5: up future capital in This George pickens. Trade with hindsight
Speaker 5: being twenty, Twenty do you look at that a little
Speaker 5: bit harder if you knew that you would be getting
Speaker 5: that getting A pickens pick back in A texans, trade
Speaker 5: does that make sense What i'm trying to.
Speaker 3: Here Oka you, say what About you Say pickens got
Speaker 3: to pick back in the in the.
Speaker 5: Test, no What i'm saying is they gave up a
Speaker 5: third for the. Pickts, yes, right, yes, sir let's, say
Speaker 5: and the report was, that so you would just have
Speaker 5: extra future Cat we would have that extra. Third so,
Speaker 5: basically you don't lose out on a third and you
Speaker 5: spend a draft pick on uh On George.
Speaker 3: PICKENS i Think i'm still.
Speaker 6: Cool we basically move back thirteen spots to Get george.
Speaker 7: PICKS i Think i'm still kind of cool with what we,
Speaker 7: Have Like i'll lose the third to Keep booker and
Speaker 7: And donovan And pickens And, Revel, Like i'm fine with,
Speaker 7: that And i'm cool with that group of. GUYS i
Speaker 7: didn't want. TO i don't want to send too many
Speaker 7: rubles BECAUSE i don't know what next year's draft looks.
Speaker 7: Like you know WHAT i, mean the next year, draft
Speaker 7: we could be sitting up here pissed all, day, damn
Speaker 7: but we could have a two.
Speaker 6: Tell you, right, yeah it's fun guys at the top
Speaker 6: of this.
Speaker 3: BOARD i ain't saying.
Speaker 2: YEAH i the thing about, ME i would have dropped
Speaker 2: back because and the only REASON i say this is
Speaker 2: BECAUSE i Had jackson Above. Booker that's the only that's
Speaker 2: the only thing THAT i you, KNOW i MEAN I Donovan,
Speaker 2: Jacks donovan jack and, yeah the guard guard Tackle Ohio.
Speaker 2: STATE i had him. Higher so if you told ME
Speaker 2: i could drop back thirteen and then pick up pickings
Speaker 2: as part of this, TRADE i THINK i would have done.
Speaker 2: That but but they the last time they cared WHAT
Speaker 2: i thought about was two thousand and. Five everybody knows,
Speaker 2: That SO i would HAVE i would have probably done.
Speaker 2: That it's WHAT i would have.
Speaker 7: Done does pickens do more for your run game or
Speaker 7: your passing, game passing game past?
Speaker 3: GAME i think that run.
Speaker 6: Game opens, up and for sure there's things that happen.
Speaker 3: STUPID i think it was stupidly.
Speaker 7: THOUGH i think it's stupid stupid BECAUSE i keep going
Speaker 7: back To maya McCarthy making people running hitches and. Slams,
Speaker 7: Right and if you're running routes in that, way like
Speaker 7: DB's can sit in that range and that'll keep them
Speaker 7: in run stopping. Range pickings going deep now, yeah so
Speaker 7: now DB's got to turn the back to the. Backfield, now,
Speaker 7: Yeah and if and if we really want to mess
Speaker 7: with you, know play action all this kind of, stuff
Speaker 7: and and everything works together in hand and hand all this.
Speaker 7: STUFF i think having two ones in a, prime that's what's.
Speaker 7: Important brian. BROS i haven't talked To nick about, this
Speaker 7: but out of all The cowboy wide receiver tantams that we've,
Speaker 7: had it's always like an older receiver that's in his
Speaker 7: prime and some young, guy or like a young guy
Speaker 7: that's really good with an old guy that's kind of
Speaker 7: on the way, out or, whatever whatever combination you want
Speaker 7: to look. AT i think this is the first time
Speaker 7: in a long, time correct me, please that we've had
Speaker 7: two dudes twenty four to twenty five in their prime for,
Speaker 7: real for, real that you have to pay special attention.
Speaker 7: TO i think that's gonna do so much for bumping
Speaker 7: the defense, out like outside the, numbers like those dudes
Speaker 7: are gonna have to move around with those two. GUYS
Speaker 7: i think the run game benefits.
Speaker 5: MUCH i only think you compare it to is When
Speaker 5: Miles austin was really cooking With.
Speaker 3: DOZ i still think there was a young guy. Still, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 6: That's BUT i think that's the only argument you can.
Speaker 6: MAKE i understand where you're.
Speaker 7: Going if you could Take daz that was that was
Speaker 7: leading the league in touchdowns with my With miles aust
Speaker 7: and that would have been, stupid you know WHAT i?
Speaker 7: Mean or Or lamb now With cooper when he was twenty,
Speaker 7: five that would have been. Crazy but everybody's always been
Speaker 7: in different spots or, hurt even. Men you finally get
Speaker 7: two twenty twenty four to twenty five year old guys
Speaker 7: in their.
Speaker 2: Prime that's you're gonna have to prove to me you
Speaker 2: can run the. Ball you're gonna have to prove to
Speaker 2: me you could do. That and what's you, know there
Speaker 2: was a lot of And i'm not gonna say, bluster
Speaker 2: but there was a lot of conversation when these, coaches
Speaker 2: when the staff was built about you, know, okay It's
Speaker 2: penn And polls and it's two offensive line coaches and it's,
Speaker 2: this that and the, other and you know a lot of.
Speaker 2: That and then you, know we had the opportunity on,
Speaker 2: draft the third day of the draft to talk to
Speaker 2: the line coach offensive, coordinator and they both were, saying,
Speaker 2: hey we're not going to do things we can't. Do
Speaker 2: so we're, thinking, oh, Look arizona pen and poll outside.
Speaker 2: Zone da da da da da da da da. Da
Speaker 2: we're talking about all these, things and then all of
Speaker 2: a sudden they're, like, listen we might not be able
Speaker 2: to do. That we're going to, Try we're going to
Speaker 2: work on. It, yeah did you help yourself with the right? Guard,
Speaker 2: sure absolutely you. Did and you've got to hope that
Speaker 2: your center is. Improved he looks like you know that
Speaker 2: he's going to be. Fine we'll see about the right.
Speaker 2: Tackle you, know we know what the left guard. Is
Speaker 2: the left tackle is a, big, big big question. Mark
Speaker 2: the running back is blue capable of being that? Guy you,
Speaker 2: KNOW i would bet that there's a good possibility of.
Speaker 2: That but they have to prove to me that they
Speaker 2: can run the, football because they talked about it a
Speaker 2: bunch coming in and now it's, like, well maybe we
Speaker 2: need to kind of only do things that were capable of.
Speaker 2: Doing we'll.
