Long time Cowboys 11 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 1: reported joined by former Cowboys defensive backs Danny mccraig and 12 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:57,880 Speaker 1: Barry Church. Fellows how we do with McCray? I know 13 00:00:57,960 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 1: the wife has got one in the oven. How are 14 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 1: things going here? Going? Good man? Just just growing growing. 15 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 1: I think we pushed. We crossed five months last week, 16 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: so over halfway there. We'll be hoping to see the 17 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:15,039 Speaker 1: little princess in September. All right, Church, so what is 18 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: what is he in for? So he's five months into 19 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: this thing? First, baby, come a Church? What advice are 20 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 1: you gonna get mcrey enjoy the first six months, I 21 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: would say, because they all they do is sleep and eat, 22 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 1: so it's like, man, this is nothing. But after that, 23 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,839 Speaker 1: when that energy spikes up, then they start running around 24 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 1: the house. Get your popcorn ready, man? Yeah, once they 25 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 1: get once they get mobile, it is definitely a problem. 26 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 1: Once they get mobile, you gotta get all the floors, 27 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,760 Speaker 1: start looking for things and you you haven't seen. So 28 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 1: Barry's just had a newborn, He's got two kids, and 29 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 1: Danny McCray is getting ready to have his first. So 30 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: during the week, I'm constantly looking at what's going on 31 00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: right now in California. I've been looking at it already, 32 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 1: but even more so since we now know the Cowboys 33 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: first game is going to be in Los Angeles. And 34 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,919 Speaker 1: one of the things that I found very interesting this 35 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: week is that the cow State University system says that 36 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: all classes in the fall are going to be virtual. 37 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 1: So the cow State system is different than what they 38 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:20,959 Speaker 1: call the UC system. I used to live out in 39 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:22,959 Speaker 1: La so I kind of know that. So the UC 40 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: system is UCLA University California at Berkeley, cow that's that 41 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: over the Cow State. That's cow State Fuller ten, Cow 42 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 1: State Northridge, cow State Long Beach. So if these cow 43 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 1: State schools have decided they're gonna have just you know, 44 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: nobody's gonna be in class there, what does the UC 45 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: system do? And then how does that start to affect 46 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: the NFL? Does Gavin Newsom, the governor, tell teams like 47 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: LA and the tell tell the San Francisco Forodans they 48 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: can't play that this year? So fellas my thought is, 49 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: and I know the Cowboys are someone in the NFL 50 00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 1: s more, they got to be thinking that you may 51 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: have to relocate these cal these three California teams this 52 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 1: year and these games. Yeah, I mean that could be 53 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: that could be their case here. I mean, like I've 54 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: seen reports out of New York that they're looking for, 55 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 1: you know, different places to have their camp and everything 56 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: like that while this pandemic is going on. So but 57 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: like you said, man if classes are going in the 58 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 1: fall and California is just trying to make trying to 59 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: trying to minimize as much outbreak as they can. I 60 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 1: could see the NFL is they're smart, like you said, 61 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 1: the NFL reclocating those California teams just to give them 62 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: an opportunity to be able to play this season if 63 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: the season goes on, So I can see them relocating 64 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: you know, San Francisco, Oakland, those guys and have them 65 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: at a temporary place until California can get things under control. 66 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:44,839 Speaker 1: But we'll see what happens. The governor of Arizona said, Hey, 67 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: Arizona is open, so pro sports teams can be out 68 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 1: in Arizona. And yeah, I don't know what's going to 69 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: happen in the Vata yet where where the Raiders are now. 70 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: But I mean, immediately my first thought process is if 71 00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: California shut down, how does the NFL really kates and teams? 72 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: Do they send them to Arizona and operate from there 73 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: in terms of just having training camps and then they 74 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: decide what they do with games and then also are 75 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: they going to open up facilities? So this stuff is 76 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: going to be very interesting to watch to be California 77 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 1: is really key and what they do there. And then 78 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: if you're the Cowboys, do you entertain the California team? 79 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: Do you do you invite somebody like the Chargers and 80 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 1: the Rams or the forty nine ers to come train 81 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: and Texas and even possibly play games over at and 82 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: T Stadium Because fellas this while the schedules out and 83 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 1: Dandy you spoke about while the schedules out will operate 84 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: like everything is good. Everything's not good. Yeah, it's not. 85 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 1: And uh, speaking to the California and Arizona thing, you know, 86 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: one of the first things I saw was Florida's ready 87 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: for some people to come in there. And they've they've 88 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,160 Speaker 1: been you know, they've been doing their own thing from 89 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: the from the start of the quarantine as far as 90 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 1: opening and closing and how they're doing their process. We're reopening. 91 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: I think it'd be tough, but I'm sure that Jerry 92 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: Jones would would be open to allow one of those 93 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 1: California teams to come to Texas. One because it brings 94 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: more light on the Cowboys, and two because he wants 95 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: games to be played next year. He knows that in 96 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: order for that to happen, all teams need to be 97 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 1: in training camp. So I think he'll do whatever he 98 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 1: can to make sure that the season goes on. And 99 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,160 Speaker 1: in any instance, even I think we went to New 100 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: York and he's he has his hands in anything with 101 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 1: the with the NFL, anything that they can help with, 102 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 1: So he will lead the charge in figuring out how 103 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: to get this thing done. Barrier, You're in the opinion 104 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 1: that we will have the NFL. It's some shape form 105 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 1: or fashion maybe with the without fans, but we'll have 106 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: a season. Yeah, I'm on the optimistic view on this one. 107 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: I feel like even if there's no there's no you know, OTAs, 108 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: no mini camp, even if it takes a chunk out 109 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 1: of the training seat or training camp, I feel though 110 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 1: the NFL will find a way to get these games rolling. 111 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 1: I just think it's so much money out there, so 112 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: it's a billion dollar business out there, and I mean, 113 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 1: I feel like the American people who love football and 114 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: they want football, So I feel like if anybody can 115 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 1: figure out a way to get these things going. As 116 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: we see MLB's trying to figure some things out, Soccer 117 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 1: is already trying to figure some things out. So I 118 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: feel like the NFL they've been you know, they've been 119 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: ahead of ahead of the time as far as because 120 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: their season wasn't during the pandemic when it first started, 121 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: so I feel like the NFL has had time to 122 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 1: kind of see what they want to do as far 123 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: as if this pandemic stretches into September into the season, 124 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 1: so if any organization can do it. I feel like 125 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:35,919 Speaker 1: the NFL has that opportunity to do that, and I 126 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:37,840 Speaker 1: feel like they will have a season, even if it's 127 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: shortened or even if you know, some type of training 128 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 1: campus is not there. I feel like we will have 129 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: a season at least I'm hoping that we will have 130 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 1: a season. All right, So California is doing its thing. 131 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,480 Speaker 1: I think Washington we gotta throw Washington into that same 132 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 1: boat with California. Washington one of the first states to 133 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: shut things down. Where the Seahawks play and the Cowboys 134 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 1: play the Seahawks in week number three. They play at 135 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 1: the Rams in week number one, So we definitely need 136 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: to make sure we're keeping eyeballs on that situation. Closer 137 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 1: to where we're at here, Dallas Fort Worth June is 138 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 1: going to be very interesting. The Charles schwab At Colonial 139 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 1: Golf Tournament is scheduled to take place. No fans will 140 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: be there in Fort Worth, but Sergio Garcia, a major 141 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: champion and a former Colonial winner, He's slated to play. 142 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: Rory McElroy's website says that he's going to come to 143 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: Fort Worth. He's the number one golfer in the world, 144 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 1: so he's supposed to be here. Then on June sixth, 145 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 1: Texas Motor Speedway is going to host the first IndyCar 146 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 1: race of the year, and no fans are going to 147 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 1: be there either. So I think golf and racing right 148 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 1: here at Texas are going to be two really key 149 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: trials of how they go about getting sports going again. Obviously, 150 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: we know in golf, racing, baseball, the NFL, everybody wants 151 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 1: to get their TV money. If you're not playing, you're 152 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,679 Speaker 1: not getting that check. So that's why I do believe 153 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: we're going to see an NFL season this year. It's 154 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 1: going to be challenged a little bit. It may be 155 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 1: unfair for certain teams, but church in my opinion, once 156 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: we see how this thing goes in Texas, and if 157 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: it goes swimmingly for golf in IndyCar and nobody catches 158 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: COVID nineteen, I could see the NFL keep on moving 159 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,239 Speaker 1: forward and pushing. Yeah, I agree with you one hundred 160 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 1: percent on that. I could see, like you said, if 161 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 1: NASCAR golf any of those type of situations, they have 162 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: the tournaments and we don't see a big outbreak or 163 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: anybody catching it or any more cases like that. Then 164 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: I can see the NFL say, okay, let's let's put 165 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,319 Speaker 1: this plan we have in place. Let's get the ball 166 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 1: rolling on that one, because like you said, I mean, 167 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 1: it's a billion dollar business, billion dollar corporation, and people 168 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 1: are gonna lose a lot of money if we don't 169 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 1: have a season here. I understand the health risks and 170 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 1: all that. So they're just gonna have to be extremely careful. 171 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: And like you said, it may not be fair. I mean, 172 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 1: if they aren't able to move some of these California teams, 173 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,319 Speaker 1: some of these California teams might have to start the season. 174 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,679 Speaker 1: You know, hey, we're just our first week together. Let's 175 00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:59,319 Speaker 1: see what happens. And it's not you know, it's not 176 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: going to be fair for everybody. But that's just how 177 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 1: to cookie crumbles sometimes. And I can still see them 178 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,680 Speaker 1: having an NFL season, just it'll just be not fair 179 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: for some teams that aren't able to start when the 180 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:14,319 Speaker 1: rest of the teams are mccraig. Yeah, let's touch in 181 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 1: the baseball a little bit and how this end will 182 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: end up affecting the NFL because professional athletes watch what 183 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 1: other professional athletes do. Because everybody is concerned about their 184 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 1: health here, and you know, and their families especially, you know, 185 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 1: you guys, you guys have have have churches as young kids, 186 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 1: and your wife's pregnant right here, So you're not much 187 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:38,679 Speaker 1: different than anybody else who's out there going to be 188 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 1: playing baseball. Blake Snell is a picture with the Tampa 189 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 1: Bay Rays and he came out with some statements that 190 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: had caused a lot of reaction, whether you're for it 191 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: or against it, And I'll read you a little bit 192 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 1: of what the picture had to say on his twitch champel. 193 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 1: He says, cool, y'all got to understand. Man, for me 194 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 1: to go and take a pay cut, it's not happening 195 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,439 Speaker 1: because the risk is through the roof. It's a shorter 196 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,719 Speaker 1: season less pay. I gotta get my money. I'm not 197 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 1: playing unless I get mine, Okay, And that's just the 198 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: way it is for me. Like, I'm sorry, you guys 199 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 1: think differently, But the risk is way in the hell 200 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 1: higher and the amount of money I'm making is way lower. 201 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 1: Why would I think about doing that? Like, you know, 202 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 1: I'm just sorry. He also went on to say that 203 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 1: safety is his concerns and he says he's concerned about 204 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,719 Speaker 1: getting coronavirus, he says, and he said, quote, if I 205 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: get the RONA, it's in me forever. So that's what 206 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 1: picture Blake Snell had to say. He started to get 207 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 1: some backup. Bryce Harper. Bryce Harper, the Phillies, you signed 208 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: a thirteen thirteen years, three hundred, three hundred thirty million 209 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,679 Speaker 1: dollars contract, said quote, he's not lying, He's speaking the truth. Bro. 210 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 1: I ain't mad at him. Somebody's got to say it. 211 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 1: At least he manned up and said it. Good for him. 212 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 1: I love Snell. The guy's a beast. So as as 213 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 1: professional athletes for former players in the NFL, Danny, you 214 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: tell me what is your take on what Snell to say. 215 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 1: I think this this kind of plays into the same 216 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: thing as as we are just assuming that we will 217 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 1: have a football season, and just to say that the 218 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,559 Speaker 1: NFL will figure it out doesn't mean that you will 219 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 1: have all the players on board with wanting to go 220 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: back and put them self at risk in play, because, 221 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: like you said, these guys have families that they will 222 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 1: have to go back to and and the process of 223 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: getting there and the risk of of getting COVID and 224 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 1: going to transmit it to your family is huge. Now. 225 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,760 Speaker 1: His first statement to me was, uh, you know more 226 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 1: about the money than it was about safety, And I 227 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 1: understand that money is a big issue in any sport. 228 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: You want to make all of your money, and he 229 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 1: has the right to say, if I'm not getting paid 230 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: in full, then then I'm not playing. He has that right. 231 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,440 Speaker 1: But for those guys who aren't making as much money 232 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 1: as him and they need that check, it's a little different. 233 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 1: So it's it's two ends of the spectrum. Uh, if 234 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,560 Speaker 1: you need it and you're not gonna make any if 235 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:00,679 Speaker 1: you don't. If you don't play, then you gotta get 236 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 1: out there and go play. So your mindset's a little 237 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 1: different than a guy like Harper who's thirteen years, three 238 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 1: hundred million, who can take that chance and set out 239 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 1: and not have those checks coming in. So to me, 240 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 1: it just depends on what entered the spectrum that you're 241 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: on and how important it is for you to get 242 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: that check. Church. Yeah, this one's this one was a 243 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 1: little tricky for me, but I tend to lean towards 244 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 1: Snell with this one, just because I can see where 245 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 1: he's saying. He wants you guys, they want him to 246 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 1: play a game with a game with more hazards to it. 247 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:35,719 Speaker 1: But they want to dock his payload. They want to 248 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 1: give him a pay cut to do so. So he's saying, 249 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: is the risk is or from what I got from it? 250 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:41,599 Speaker 1: He doesn't want to go out there and risk his 251 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 1: health for less money. And then that less money that 252 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 1: he's getting is gonna get taxed, so it's even less 253 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 1: than I mean, it's a super pay cut. So I 254 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 1: can see what he's saying. He doesn't want to take 255 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 1: that pay cut and still have the high risk of 256 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 1: contracting coronavirus with him. He can, he can do that. 257 00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 1: I mean, he's had money, so he can. He can 258 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 1: do that. But I can also understand the other side 259 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 1: of the spectrum, like Danny said, for guys that are 260 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: just now getting in the league and they're trying to 261 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,559 Speaker 1: support their families and are not making thirty forty million 262 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: dollars a year, so they want to get that check 263 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 1: and at no matter what costs. So I understand both 264 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,680 Speaker 1: arguments of this, but I tend to lean towards Snell 265 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 1: just because their owners want them to take a pay 266 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:22,440 Speaker 1: cut to perform to perform their job, but their job 267 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 1: is more hazardous now than it ever was. So I 268 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 1: can understand his side. Owners, you know, they want they 269 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:30,719 Speaker 1: want the baseball to go on for the fans and 270 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 1: as well. I mean owners could lose I think like 271 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,320 Speaker 1: almost two hundred twenty billion or something crazy like that. 272 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 1: The owners could lose without having a season to share, 273 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 1: canceling the rest of the season. So I understand both parts, 274 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: but I lean towards snell side. How does that work 275 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 1: for football? Though? Church? As far as let's just take 276 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: out the quarterbacks being like Snell and saying that they 277 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 1: they're sit out or they're not getting paid in full? 278 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 1: What about about the other positions? Like what position would 279 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 1: it have to be for you guys to be like 280 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,200 Speaker 1: I get in and they shouldn't play? Are those guys 281 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 1: won't go out there and play? Would a dB do 282 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:06,079 Speaker 1: that who's not making the thirty million dollars a year, 283 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: or a line a first year linebacker. I think it 284 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 1: would be extremely tough for like a rookie linebacker coming 285 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 1: in here. You know, he hasn't made anything but his 286 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 1: signing bonus. Let's just say an undrafted guy, he hasn't 287 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 1: made anything but his you know, twelve thousand dollars signing bonus, 288 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: he's gonna want these games being played no matter what, 289 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 1: cause when they open up the doors, he's probably gonna 290 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 1: be the first one in there. So it's just tough. 291 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 1: And the majority of the league is gonna be like that. 292 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: I mean, there's only you know, maybe ten twenty percent 293 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 1: of the league that's making these huge figures. So but 294 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 1: they have the most cool So we'll see what happens. 295 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 1: Usually when the super when the superstars say in an organization, hey, 296 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: this is how it's gonna go, usually the team follows along. 297 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 1: But in this situation, a lot of money is involved. 298 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 1: So I can see the players with lesser value stayed 299 00:14:51,320 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 1: in their case saying they want this season to continue. Yeah, 300 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 1: I don't think that's under the circumstances of like putting 301 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 1: your health at risk and your family's health at risk. 302 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: We don't know who these guys have at home, if 303 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 1: they have their grandparents standing with them, what type of 304 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 1: illments that the kids might have or health issues. So 305 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 1: you can't look at at somebody under these circumstances and say, hey, man, 306 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 1: you're letting the team down. Because football is just a 307 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: little small part of life. At the end of the day, 308 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 1: it's a game. The real life is outside of the lines, 309 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 1: outside of the facility, back at home, when you go 310 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: talk to your wife and your kids and your family. 311 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 1: So the most important thing you got to take care 312 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 1: of is your health and safety and your family. So 313 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 1: I don't think guys in the locker room, anybody and 314 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: they write mine, in my opinion, would look at somebody 315 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 1: crazy for saying they don't want to put their family 316 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 1: at risk to go play the game with football. Yeah, 317 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: I see this is don't go ahead, go ahead and 318 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: do it goodheads. No, No, Barry, finish up, finish up. 319 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 1: I was just saying that. Yeah, I don't see this 320 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 1: as like a Scottie Pipman situation where you know, they 321 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 1: quit on the team or anything like that. I think 322 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 1: these players are just looking out for what's best for 323 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 1: their interests and their family. And I think all the 324 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: other players will understand that, and we'll look at him 325 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: any different. All right, let's take our first break here 326 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 1: on the players lands. When we come back, I'll ask 327 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 1: Barry and Danny, who've been watching the Last Dance, can 328 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: Michael Jordan's type of leadership and you could even say bullying, 329 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: can that work in the NFL? Room. How is this 330 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 1: Cowboys offense slated to? Look? Who loses touches under this 331 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 1: Cowboys offense? And who is the one player on the 332 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: Cowboys defense under Mike Nolan who needs to step up 333 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 1: in the twenty twenty season.

Back to the Player's 372 00:18:53,080 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 1: loud plays Lounge on a Friday. I'm News Dugs, a 373 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 1: long time Cowboys reporter, joined by Barry Church, former Dallas 374 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 1: Cowboys defensive back, and Danny mccraig, former Dallas Cowboys defensive 375 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: back as well. Let's start diving into the defense here. 376 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:16,400 Speaker 1: Mike Nolan stall the defensive coordinate, and I think Mike 377 00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:20,120 Speaker 1: Nolan is going to run things very differently than Rod Marinelli. Already, 378 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,200 Speaker 1: we're seeing that the Cowboys are adding some beef up front. 379 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: No more these small quick guys on the d line. 380 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: They want some beef upfront. So Danny, I'll start with you, 381 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,920 Speaker 1: and then Barry follow up. Who is the Cowboys defensive 382 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 1: player who needs to step up under this new Mike 383 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:39,639 Speaker 1: Nolan defense man? Newly, I don't want to cheat you 384 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:43,639 Speaker 1: by naming too much, so I'll take one and just 385 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 1: say hi, ho Clin Dix. But really it is the 386 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:50,879 Speaker 1: secondary overall. They need somebody to step in as the leader, 387 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 1: and I'm assuming that'd be high Clin Dix to get 388 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:56,440 Speaker 1: this secondary plan like they should be. So those guys 389 00:19:56,440 --> 00:20:00,440 Speaker 1: are up front, can can Russian get those saxon the game. 390 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 1: So I'm putting my on a safety position with the 391 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:11,679 Speaker 1: outlook of it needs to be the entire defensive secondary. Okay, okay, 392 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,159 Speaker 1: okay um. I like your take on there, like the 393 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 1: secondary because we know they they're gonna need some help 394 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 1: going into the season. For me, I'm gonna have to 395 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 1: say it's got to be the Marcus Lawrence. I mean, 396 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 1: this guy, We've seen what he can do in the past. 397 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,360 Speaker 1: He had two before he got paid. He had two 398 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 1: back to back seasons with double digit sacks, and this 399 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,440 Speaker 1: year he only had five, which is a big drop 400 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 1: in his production. So they paid him all that money. 401 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 1: He's a leader of that defense. He's the most voice, 402 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 1: like he's the biggest voice on that defense when it 403 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 1: comes to interviews. So I'm saying he has to step 404 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:43,399 Speaker 1: it up. He has to get more than five sacks, 405 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: and we know our secondary struggled a little bit last year. 406 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,119 Speaker 1: If he can pick up his sack his sack numbers 407 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:50,959 Speaker 1: and get more pressure on the quarterback, you know they 408 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,640 Speaker 1: say Russian cover worked together, So hopefully he can get 409 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 1: his stuff going and this D line can get going 410 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 1: and they can make the make the secondaries job a 411 00:20:57,960 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 1: lot easier, back getting into the quarterback a lot faster. 412 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,200 Speaker 1: I feel like God, his defense can only go as 413 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,439 Speaker 1: far as the D line and especially him can take it. 414 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: So hopefully he can get his gear going and get 415 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 1: back to those double digit sack seasons so this defense 416 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: can get out back on track. Church. I'm with you 417 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: one hundred percent of the way. I mean, you can't 418 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 1: sit around here and get the largest contracted team history 419 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 1: and they roll out five sacks. So I'm with you 420 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:19,960 Speaker 1: one hundred percent. Tank has to be the guy. I'll 421 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:22,119 Speaker 1: give you a since you with Tech, I'll give you 422 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 1: another guy here, and it's Laton Vanderesh. His rookie year 423 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl performer, was everywhere on the field. Last year, 424 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 1: neck issues limited him and he's had surgery. Everybody's saying 425 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 1: he's okay, but you guys have played the sport next 426 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: or a whole different kind of deal. Everybody can sit 427 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 1: at there all day long to say you're good, but 428 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 1: it's when you got to stick your neck out there 429 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 1: and go and we know what kind of difference maker 430 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,719 Speaker 1: vander esh is when they sit him on blitzes and 431 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:51,880 Speaker 1: you know Mike Nolan likes the blitz and then also 432 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 1: in coverage. So I'll go with Layton Vanderesh. Here's a 433 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 1: guy on defense it needs to step up because it 434 00:21:57,640 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 1: becomes back and he's a Pro Bowl player, that's great. 435 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 1: If he's not back, if he's not one hundred percent, 436 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:03,920 Speaker 1: if his career could possibly be jeopardy, that's gonna be 437 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:05,920 Speaker 1: a holder. They're gonna have to go feel and starting 438 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: having to look to feel that. Come to twenty twenty draft, Yeah, 439 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 1: that's what agree with you on that one knew you? 440 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:13,600 Speaker 1: You have to agree with you on that one knew 441 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:15,399 Speaker 1: yea me and both me and Danny both played with 442 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,120 Speaker 1: a guy by the name of Hans Holloman or DeVante Holloman, 443 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:22,119 Speaker 1: and he was a promising, promising linebacker, but he had 444 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 1: the same issues. He had a lot of the neck 445 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 1: issues and then it forces him retirement early. So one 446 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:28,119 Speaker 1: thing I have to say about Bandura, say, just make 447 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,399 Speaker 1: sure you're one hundred percent before you go sticking your 448 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 1: neck out there, because like I said, football is only 449 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: a small portion of your life. You want to be 450 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 1: able to play with your kids and have a successful 451 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,479 Speaker 1: life after football, So just be careful about sticking your 452 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 1: neck in there. I say this, you knew it, knew he. 453 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 1: I knew you was going with the law, with the 454 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 1: d law. Five sack. I knew it was coming. I 455 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 1: knew it was coming, was coming. Am I wrong? That's 456 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 1: all I'm saying. Am I wrong? No? The man had 457 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: five sex last year. He's still sack wise. You know, 458 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 1: it was a lack of production, but he was still 459 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:07,879 Speaker 1: effective in the game, and he's stepping up. This is 460 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:11,119 Speaker 1: his first off year in the last what three or 461 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 1: four He'll be fine. But that's that comes with the meal, though, Danny, Danny, 462 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:18,200 Speaker 1: that comes with the meal. So if Dak Prescott signed 463 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 1: a contract where he's getting this, you know, thirty five 464 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:23,119 Speaker 1: million dollars, and you know the pressure is gonna be 465 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 1: on you to perform when you signed for that money. 466 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 1: The criticism comes with it. Jimmy g got all that cash, 467 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:30,880 Speaker 1: missing games, people are on him. So when you get 468 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 1: paid a lot of money and you don't perform as 469 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 1: as especially if you put in a whole bunch of 470 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 1: sacks to get the money and then once you've got it, 471 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 1: you're not there. People are gonna question you. So it's 472 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:44,400 Speaker 1: not like I'm picking on take. This is what happens 473 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 1: when you get paid, and you guys know that because 474 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 1: you've been in the room. No, I'm not saying I'm 475 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: not saying you're picking on him. I'm saying that we 476 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 1: shouldn't operate under the assumption that he's going to put 477 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 1: out another five sex season, like he's just one of 478 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,160 Speaker 1: those guys who just let up after he got paid. 479 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:00,159 Speaker 1: The history hadn't shown that. I believe that he had. 480 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:03,119 Speaker 1: He had off year like a lot of people on 481 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: on the defense, and he's stepping back up this year. Okay, 482 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 1: So so you're gonna go with Tanker, So you're gonna 483 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:13,680 Speaker 1: go at Tanker. How Dix is your step up guy? No, listen, 484 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:15,679 Speaker 1: I'm gonna hid Clint Dix because if you look at 485 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 1: the secondary, we possibly have a rookie, We got Jordan 486 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 1: Lewis who will be a first year starter, and then 487 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: you got, uh, we don't even know who will be 488 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,640 Speaker 1: on the other side of play in the corner. So 489 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 1: that whoever steps up in that, which would be how 490 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: Clint Dix as the venture will have a lot of 491 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:33,199 Speaker 1: guys to bring along in that secondary who a lot 492 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:37,399 Speaker 1: of them really don't have that much NFL experience. All right, 493 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 1: let's flip it to the other side here and Barry, 494 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 1: you raise this point up here in our pre show meeting. Um, 495 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:47,160 Speaker 1: what can this offense look like? Because we've got Mike 496 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 1: McCarthy now as the head coach, you got Keller Moore back. 497 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,959 Speaker 1: They don't have an off season to implement a lot 498 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 1: of things. So so give me your take. Um, I 499 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 1: think it can be tricky, man, because on paper, and 500 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 1: now I say this on paid for they look explosive 501 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 1: and dangerous. I mean, you got Amari Cooper, who at 502 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: home is the best ride receiver hit the league right now. 503 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 1: Then you got you draft drafted a guy Ceedee Lamb 504 00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 1: who's considered the best wide receiver in the draft. And 505 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: then you got Michael Gallup as well, So you got 506 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,480 Speaker 1: a three headed horse at receiver. At tight end, you 507 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 1: got Blake who's Blake Jarwin who should be a mismatched 508 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:22,920 Speaker 1: nightmare out there. And in the backfield you got Zeke 509 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 1: who's arguably one of the best running backs in the league, 510 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 1: as well as this offensive line. So on paper, they 511 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 1: should be explosive as heck, But we've all seen we'll 512 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,200 Speaker 1: see what happens when you think paper is the result 513 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: of everything, and we see what happens when they don't 514 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 1: perform as well. So hopefully if all these guys stay 515 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 1: healthy and they perform on the level that they should, 516 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,639 Speaker 1: this team or this offense could be explosive and the 517 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:45,680 Speaker 1: number one ranked offense in the league if everything goes right. 518 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:47,680 Speaker 1: But they got to put the work on the field first. 519 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 1: But on paper they look extremely dangerous. Yeah. Same here. 520 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 1: My only thing with the offense, and I know it 521 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 1: should be great, but if you look on paper, last 522 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 1: year we look great on paper. I mean you take 523 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:07,880 Speaker 1: out winning and put in Jarwin, and I think it's 524 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,399 Speaker 1: it should be kind of the same, except Jarwin putting 525 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: up hopefully more yards than Winden did. But Cede Lamb 526 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 1: is expected to come in and put up big numbers, 527 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 1: so let's not forget Randall Cole put up big numbers 528 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,920 Speaker 1: last year. So unless he's gonna double that, then I 529 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 1: don't see much difference being in there. Last year, I 530 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:25,359 Speaker 1: thought we should have had one of the one of 531 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 1: the offenses that put up all these points in the 532 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,399 Speaker 1: beginning of the game. I'll start off slow and I 533 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: played from behind and it ended up not working out 534 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:35,640 Speaker 1: for so I have high hopes, but I gotta wait 535 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:38,439 Speaker 1: and see, because when we put out last year in 536 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,399 Speaker 1: some of those games, it was shocking, all right, But 537 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:45,440 Speaker 1: chrais stay on that point there. So whose numbers dropped 538 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 1: with the addition of Cede Lamb coming in with Blake 539 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 1: Jarwin now being the starter? Whose numbers dropping this office? Man, 540 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 1: that's tough. I would say Jarwin, but he didn't really 541 00:26:58,119 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 1: get that much play time last year, So I'm gonna 542 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 1: throw the so on Gallup. I think the top two 543 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 1: targets uh for for back will be CD Lamb in 544 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,680 Speaker 1: the slot and uh A Mark Coop on the outside 545 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:09,880 Speaker 1: or or or they might switch it out and then 546 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 1: Ceede Lamb on the outside and put Coop on the 547 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 1: inside when they go eleven. But I think those two 548 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:15,679 Speaker 1: guys will be seeing most of the targets, so Gallup 549 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:19,159 Speaker 1: might take a back seat to to CD in a 550 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 1: Mary Yeah, I'm to go oh go ahead ahead, No no, no, no, yeah, 551 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 1: I was just a piggybacking on Danny. I think um 552 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 1: Gallup's definitely gonna take a back seat on this one. 553 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,439 Speaker 1: I mean, you got Ceedee Lamb where everybody loves to 554 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:40,639 Speaker 1: play with their brand new toy and like the experiment 555 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 1: with it. So I think he'll get plenty of touches. 556 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,040 Speaker 1: You just paid a Mark Cooper one hundred million, so 557 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 1: they're definitely going to get all that money out of him. 558 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,200 Speaker 1: Plus you gotta have that the you gotta have the 559 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 1: running back in the back. He'll eat as much as 560 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 1: he can. So I wouldn't say Blake drama, but he's 561 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,119 Speaker 1: such a nichematch nightmare. I feel like that's gonna go 562 00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:58,200 Speaker 1: to him a lot when he's in coverage against linebackers 563 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 1: and safety. So I think Gallop will have to take 564 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:01,880 Speaker 1: a back seat on this one. I don't think it's 565 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 1: right because he had a heck of a season last 566 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: year and he's proven to be one of a more 567 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 1: talented receivers in the league. But that's just how to 568 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 1: way to Cookie crumbulls. Hopefully he's able to get his 569 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 1: touches and make the most out of him, but I 570 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 1: feel like you'll have to take a back seat him 571 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 1: on this one. I disagree with both of I'm disagree 572 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 1: with you on both of it. Now, I had Michael 573 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:22,120 Speaker 1: Gallup and my fantasy team last year, and the amount 574 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 1: of one on one coverage that this guy got was crazy, 575 00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 1: and we know how good he is. I was even 576 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:29,159 Speaker 1: talking to Michael about it in the locker room. So 577 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:30,880 Speaker 1: if people want to and to me, I think it's 578 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: gonna be ceedee Lamb one. He's gonna have to learn 579 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,680 Speaker 1: the offense and right now, it's the whole virtual thing 580 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: and you guys, you guys know what that's all about. 581 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 1: It's gonna be tough. So Gallups is going to know 582 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,240 Speaker 1: what to do within the offense. And also in his 583 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 1: third NFL season, you guys are seeing that this is 584 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 1: when receivers really take off as in this third NFL season, 585 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: So I think Michael Gallup especially somebody wants to say, okay, 586 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 1: and defensive Coordinay, well let's go check out Cde Lamb. 587 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 1: You leave Michael Gallup one on one, and you know 588 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: Dak always makes the smart play man. Gallack is up 589 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 1: hearing eat eat, and that's gonna be a guy that 590 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: I focus again on my fantasy team is getting Michael 591 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 1: gallacks people forgetting about it. And you know how players are. 592 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,280 Speaker 1: You know, Gallup is hearing it. You see all those 593 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 1: you know, you see all these pictures out there where 594 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: they showed the Cowboys in their offense, they leave Gallipo 595 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,959 Speaker 1: that dude is going to take it personal. So now 596 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 1: you think that Gallup's numbers, uh, this upcoming season will 597 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:28,720 Speaker 1: be better than last season. I do. I think I 598 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 1: think his numbers will be better because he said go 599 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:33,720 Speaker 1: back to just that you start looking at when you 600 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 1: see receivers really start to take off. It's a third season, 601 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 1: and I do think that people are gonna focus on 602 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 1: and look, Zeke's gonna have a great year. I think 603 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 1: if there's anybody you want on your fantasy team this year, 604 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 1: it's gonna be ze I think Ezekiel Elliott will have 605 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 1: a tremendous season. I won't say it's gonna be the 606 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,480 Speaker 1: way McCaffrey's was last year, but it's going to be 607 00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 1: a I think more like a Dalvin Cook where you're 608 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 1: talking about, man, this guy is the MVP of an offense. 609 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:00,720 Speaker 1: I think that's what we're gonna see out of Ezekiel 610 00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 1: Elliott because the mismatches and when they go to three 611 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 1: receiver sets and Mike McCarthy ran an eighty percent of 612 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 1: the time in Green Bay, and he'll be smart enough 613 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 1: to get Zeke the ball more in the passing game. 614 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,000 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna have a fantastic year. But you're 615 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: gonna leave Michael Gallant one on one and when Dak 616 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 1: sees that one on one coverage, he's gonna hit him. 617 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 1: And we saw what he did last year, and now 618 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 1: going into a third season with everything that he's had already, 619 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 1: and he was nicked up a little bit too last year. 620 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 1: I think Gallup's gonna blow up. This is a guy 621 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 1: who was a Bullet in the Car finalist, He was 622 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 1: an All American. This guy is a really good football player. 623 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 1: Two many times people are forgetting about Yeah, Nuie, I 624 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:40,920 Speaker 1: think you might have swayed me a little bit, man, 625 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 1: just I didn't even think of I didn't even I 626 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 1: didn't even think about that one on one coverage the situation, 627 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 1: because you're right. I mean, teams are gonna try to 628 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 1: take Amari Cooper rid of there, and I think they 629 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 1: might if they watched Blake drawing with a linebacker. They're 630 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 1: gonna have somebody else kind of doubling him, so it 631 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 1: could leave him up for one on one on the 632 00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 1: third best corner and so I like that matchup. So 633 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 1: you might have swayed me a little bit. We'll see 634 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 1: the season. We'll see. I'm still not there. It didn't 635 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 1: sway me because now all of a sudden, you need 636 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 1: somebody to cover Zeke, you need somebody to cover jar one, 637 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 1: you need somebody to double coop. That leads CD and 638 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 1: in Gallo about everybody. So I think it's gonna be 639 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 1: a lot more one on ones, and I think that 640 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 1: the office is gonna be creative enough to get Coop 641 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 1: a lot on one on ones as well. So I 642 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,800 Speaker 1: don't know, not to be cynical, I just I'm not sure. 643 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be gallop. But Newly congratulations. I 644 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 1: hope you get them on your fantasy team and it 645 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 1: works out for you. Hey man, it worked out great. 646 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 1: Like I had Dad and I had Cooper as I 647 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 1: won the championship, So you know it was it was 648 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 1: me looking to buy at the right price because people 649 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 1: at the back end. I think I got dacking around 650 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 1: eleven and I got galloping about round thirteen. That won't 651 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: happen this year, but I just had a good feeling. 652 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 1: That's one of the things when you go to camp. 653 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,160 Speaker 1: You just start seeing how guys are. And I tell 654 00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 1: you this, when you go back to CD Lamb and 655 00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:57,720 Speaker 1: go back to Michael Gallo and in the first game 656 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 1: against the Rams, and we know how quarterback acts operating, 657 00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 1: you go with the guy you trust. You know, if 658 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 1: you start to see a blitzer, you see a coverage, 659 00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 1: you can look at Gallup and know exactly he knows 660 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,080 Speaker 1: what to do because you've been in that battle situation 661 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 1: with him. But Cede Lamb is gonna take a minute 662 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 1: before you get there. And I think he'll get there 663 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 1: because we know he's an outstanding player.

I never watched Get Up. Um. 682 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 1: I don't like the shows because I know when they 683 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:20,320 Speaker 1: put something over the cowboys, they try and you know 684 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:22,760 Speaker 1: it did they blow up small things and then of course, 685 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:25,240 Speaker 1: you know, you bring out swagger our guy Marcus Spirits, 686 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 1: who I love to death. You know, Marcus has to 687 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:28,640 Speaker 1: get up there and back up, you know, some of 688 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 1: these crazy takes and Dan Laski and stephen A. Smith 689 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 1: throughout there. But yesterday, and I see a lot of 690 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:35,760 Speaker 1: this on social media because some people will post it. 691 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:37,080 Speaker 1: They're like, you know, hey, what do you think? And 692 00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:39,480 Speaker 1: so I'll see it there they went after dak in 693 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:43,720 Speaker 1: the contract one more time and Fellas I still just 694 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:45,479 Speaker 1: shake my head and I go back to what I've 695 00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 1: said here consistently, and I did it on a podcast 696 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 1: for NBC Sports and Washington. They asked me about Dak's contract. 697 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 1: I said, just tell me the last time Jerry Jones 698 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:57,880 Speaker 1: lost the guy. He said he wanted to keep We've 699 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,720 Speaker 1: never seen it happen, so why why do we keep 700 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:02,880 Speaker 1: talking about it? And then I heard to talk about 701 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 1: well making play on a one year deal. They don't 702 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 1: want him on a one year deal. They want the 703 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 1: guy in the contract. They believe in him. And I 704 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:10,680 Speaker 1: don't know if you guys saw the Vegas odds or not, 705 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 1: but they came out with the MVP odds for the 706 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:17,160 Speaker 1: for next year, Vegas has Patrick Mahomes won, Lamar Jackson 707 00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 1: two and Dak Prescott number three. So even Vegas thinks 708 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:27,759 Speaker 1: that the guy just a decent player. Hey, look, last 709 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 1: year Vegas had the Cowboys winning eight games, just saying, oh, 710 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:35,000 Speaker 1: I'm listening. They also, I think it was like two 711 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 1: hundred or two thousand a month of Joe Burrow to 712 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 1: win the his man and he ended up winning that. 713 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:48,480 Speaker 1: So yeah, Vegas. Yeah, Now I think Joe Burrow dare 714 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: I think he plays like one hundred dollars been and 715 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 1: made like twenty grand or so, twenty or two. It 716 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 1: was something like that. It was crazy betting on the 717 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 1: sudden vest. But all right, But but Danny go back 718 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:02,120 Speaker 1: to this though, when it comes to the NFL MVP, 719 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 1: we know pretty much it's going to be a quarterback. 720 00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 1: So unlike college, where you know, we've seen dark horses 721 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 1: run out there for the most part, where these MVPs, 722 00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:12,880 Speaker 1: we know pretty much it's going to be a quarterback. 723 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:14,719 Speaker 1: And the group of guys that they've got, when you 724 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 1: start to look at them, it's a pretty decent list, 725 00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:19,440 Speaker 1: and you could see you could see one of those 726 00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:21,480 Speaker 1: guys coming from that list. Now last year, I know 727 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:26,840 Speaker 1: they had Mitch Trubisky up in there. They're like Vegas 728 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 1: and you and you and you and you referenced them 729 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 1: so so so Vegas wanted to take some people's money, 730 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,839 Speaker 1: so they want to take the folks money. And they 731 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,040 Speaker 1: didn't have Lamar Jaxon. So hey, there's a reason why 732 00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 1: Vegas comes out on top. But overall, they're not too 733 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 1: far off. They're not crazy. They make money for a 734 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:46,439 Speaker 1: whole lot of reasons here. But give me your your 735 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:50,080 Speaker 1: your thought process on how ESPN keeps running out the 736 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:56,399 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott contract time and time again with the capitals. 737 00:35:57,239 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 1: Yeah ahead, Dad, good. Oh, I'm just saying, listen, we 738 00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:04,759 Speaker 1: all know that when you talk about the Cowboys, you 739 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 1: get raised. When you put the Cowboys on TV, you 740 00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:08,920 Speaker 1: get raids. So if you don't have anything to talk 741 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:11,040 Speaker 1: about or you need somebody to come watch your show, 742 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:13,480 Speaker 1: the thing that you should talk about first when it 743 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,000 Speaker 1: comes to sports outside of Michael Jordan, because the last 744 00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:19,000 Speaker 1: dances all are the Cowboys, and the biggest issue with 745 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 1: the Cowboys now is that Prescott's contract. So I mean, 746 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:25,640 Speaker 1: right now, everybody's searching with something to talk about. So 747 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: I think it's topping. I think we're gonna keep continuing 748 00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:30,799 Speaker 1: to hear it until Jerry Jones pays them his four 749 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,359 Speaker 1: year deal, and if he doesn't, Dak Prescott to beat 750 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 1: July fifteen playing on the franchise tag against news wishes. Yeah, 751 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:42,080 Speaker 1: you're percent right, daddy. I mean, like he said, and 752 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 1: we all know, once you start talking about that star, 753 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 1: all the TV raidings go up. So I think I mean, 754 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 1: I've watched them disputed this morning. There was like seven 755 00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 1: different topics on the Dallas Cowboys, So especially when when 756 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 1: they're during this pandemic. When there's another sports going on, 757 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 1: they gotta have something to talk about to get people 758 00:36:57,680 --> 00:36:59,359 Speaker 1: to watch. And we know the Cowboys are the main 759 00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:01,480 Speaker 1: name that's going to come up there. But if we 760 00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:04,920 Speaker 1: go back to these MVP odds, I just how I mean, 761 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:08,760 Speaker 1: I know, he added, I know, you know, the offense 762 00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:12,160 Speaker 1: looks explosive, it looks crazy on on paper. But I 763 00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:15,080 Speaker 1: just you got him over Russell Wilson. I mean, I 764 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:18,279 Speaker 1: don't I don't see him. Clarry maybe top maybe top ten, 765 00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:20,360 Speaker 1: but I don't know. I don't not have to disagree 766 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:22,200 Speaker 1: with Vegas on this one, but you're you know, Vegas 767 00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:24,879 Speaker 1: is they always make money, so we'll figure out maybe 768 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,440 Speaker 1: don't figure out how to do that him. Yeah, they're 769 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,480 Speaker 1: gonna make some money off this Dak Prescott one for sure, 770 00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:32,960 Speaker 1: because some people are gonna go on the better. Yeah. 771 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,520 Speaker 1: When it comes to Russell Wilson, here's why you could 772 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 1: see the my opinion, here's why I can see the odds. 773 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:42,640 Speaker 1: It's because Dak has so many weapons around him versus 774 00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:45,040 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. I mean, man, there days I feel bad 775 00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:47,880 Speaker 1: for Russell Wilson and Deshaun Watson because it's just like 776 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:50,600 Speaker 1: all right, man, go with it. Well, you got no 777 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:52,560 Speaker 1: help for you, but just go, do you? And the 778 00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:56,200 Speaker 1: offensive line is breaking down. The weapons are okay. But 779 00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 1: that's one reason why I can see Dak having these 780 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:02,399 Speaker 1: odds is we look at these weapons and they're really good. 781 00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:03,960 Speaker 1: And then you had the fact that you've got a 782 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,399 Speaker 1: guy who's one of Super Bowl who bring better head 783 00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:08,680 Speaker 1: coaching to the position. So I think that helps him 784 00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 1: as well. I can agree on that. It's just I 785 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 1: just don't understand why, you know, last Tom Brady so 786 00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 1: far back. I mean, his weapons are just as explosive 787 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:19,920 Speaker 1: as dacks and down there in Tampa Bay. So I 788 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 1: don't know. We'll see they By the way, Vegas has 789 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,480 Speaker 1: the Cowboys at eleven wins. They've got the Tampa Bay 790 00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:30,400 Speaker 1: Buccaneers at nine and a half. So Vegas is Vegas 791 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:31,960 Speaker 1: were I'll tell you right now. I last year when 792 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 1: vassall Vegas say the Cowboys had eight wins, I was surprised. 793 00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:37,399 Speaker 1: I'm like the Cowboys when we're eight games, And sure enough, man, 794 00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 1: Vegas was right on that. So they make money for 795 00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 1: you shall see. Yeah, it's true, it's true. We've got 796 00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:46,799 Speaker 1: to take a break here. Let's let's come back. I 797 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:49,840 Speaker 1: want to touch on what kind of shape are for 798 00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:51,960 Speaker 1: these guys?

And Danny you said, with George's leadership 855 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:17,399 Speaker 1: style work in the NFL, So Danny, I'll start with you. Absolutely, 856 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:22,000 Speaker 1: not especially especially not in UH in twenty twenty. UH. 857 00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:25,000 Speaker 1: I see, I played six years. I was in two 858 00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:27,320 Speaker 1: different locker rooms and we had a lot of team 859 00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:30,080 Speaker 1: switches and different guys come in and I've never seen 860 00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:33,320 Speaker 1: a guy try to lead that way. And in football 861 00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:36,400 Speaker 1: is just different because offense is separate the defense, and 862 00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:40,680 Speaker 1: defense special is separate, and special teams. Jordan had these 863 00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:43,479 Speaker 1: fifteen guys and it was just them and his close 864 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:45,680 Speaker 1: tight enit and they had to play offensive defense back 865 00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:48,359 Speaker 1: to back. So to me, it's just different, Like you can, 866 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:50,440 Speaker 1: offense will not let the defensive guy come in there 867 00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:52,360 Speaker 1: and talk to them like that, and defense will not 868 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:54,480 Speaker 1: let the offensive guy coming there and talk to them 869 00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:57,120 Speaker 1: like that. It just doesn't work in a football setting. 870 00:42:57,600 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 1: And you know you you will speak to us later. 871 00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:01,560 Speaker 1: But I know a guy who came in and tried 872 00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:04,160 Speaker 1: to do that in a in a new modern age 873 00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:06,960 Speaker 1: of football, and it didn't work out so well for him. 874 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:11,439 Speaker 1: So I don't think it can fly. Yeah, I'm gonna 875 00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:12,880 Speaker 1: have to give it. I'm gonna have to give it. 876 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,719 Speaker 1: I might have to give it a big, a big hell. No. 877 00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:19,000 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just there's just no way that type 878 00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:21,400 Speaker 1: of style can work in the NFL nowadays. I just 879 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,680 Speaker 1: feel like there's two, Like you said, Danny's only what fifteen, 880 00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:26,040 Speaker 1: I think fifteen eighteen players on the basketball team in 881 00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:28,279 Speaker 1: the NBA, so you can kind of had that one 882 00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 1: Alpha and you know a couple of guys here and there. 883 00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:32,239 Speaker 1: But in football, it's just just fifty three guys plus 884 00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:34,640 Speaker 1: the practice squad. There's just too many, too many guys 885 00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:37,040 Speaker 1: out there, too many different personalities, and a lot of alpha's. 886 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:38,960 Speaker 1: Everybody in there was kind of the top dog at 887 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,719 Speaker 1: their school and they're just not gonna let anybody disrespect 888 00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:43,560 Speaker 1: them like that. Now I can see, you know, a 889 00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:45,719 Speaker 1: leadership where you're hard on your players, like come on, man, 890 00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:47,400 Speaker 1: pick it up. You're playing like trash and just that 891 00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:50,319 Speaker 1: in the third But from the story, we're hearing from 892 00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:52,719 Speaker 1: the last dance, or he's not letting people eat because 893 00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:55,120 Speaker 1: he feel like they played a bad game, or or 894 00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:58,239 Speaker 1: calling them out their names, and it's just a lot 895 00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,600 Speaker 1: of disrespect going on. And I don't care if you're 896 00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:02,919 Speaker 1: the greatest player on the earth or the greatest player 897 00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,200 Speaker 1: on that team. I mean, there's nobody on the football 898 00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:06,880 Speaker 1: teamsch gonna let you talk down to him like that. 899 00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:08,920 Speaker 1: I mean, these people have kids out there to grow men. 900 00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:11,520 Speaker 1: So I just I just can't see that happening in 901 00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:15,319 Speaker 1: the football field, especially nowadays. Like the most the most 902 00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:16,560 Speaker 1: you can see it's just a player that kind of 903 00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:18,600 Speaker 1: pick him up, saying you're playing like trash. But no 904 00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:20,960 Speaker 1: disrespect like that. I mean, that's that's just unheard of. 905 00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:26,080 Speaker 1: I remember the part and when Tony Kukog said, all right, 906 00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:28,239 Speaker 1: we lose the game, and Michael comes in and he's man. 907 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:31,000 Speaker 1: He says, okay, you m efforts. You guys didn't do 908 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 1: anything to night, so come ready to play tomorrow. And 909 00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:36,040 Speaker 1: then will Produce said, hey, let's get it straight now. 910 00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:38,480 Speaker 1: He was in a hole. He crossed the line a 911 00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:42,160 Speaker 1: whole lot of times, but he was trying to make 912 00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:43,680 Speaker 1: you a better too, and you look back on it, 913 00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:47,040 Speaker 1: you say it worked. I was around the Cowboys when 914 00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:50,160 Speaker 1: Charles Haley was here, and Charles Haley did cross the 915 00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:53,880 Speaker 1: line at times. I remember when they lost their second 916 00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:56,720 Speaker 1: game of the season after winning the Super Bowl. Emmett 917 00:44:56,760 --> 00:45:00,120 Speaker 1: Smith had not gotten a contract yet and Charles was 918 00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:02,399 Speaker 1: cursing in the locker room. He was mad. Jerry Jones 919 00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:05,360 Speaker 1: was there. He throws the helmet, it whizzes past Jerry, 920 00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:09,160 Speaker 1: it ends up sticking at Texas Stadium into the wall. 921 00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:12,520 Speaker 1: And there's other numerous stories which I won't go into here, 922 00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:14,919 Speaker 1: but you can read several books like Jeff Perlman's book 923 00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:19,120 Speaker 1: about the Cowboys and what Charles Haley did and Charles 924 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:23,760 Speaker 1: could cross the line and Charles is influencing the Cowboys. 925 00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:26,880 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody would dispute it. He was definitely 926 00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:29,799 Speaker 1: one of the final pieces that they used under Jimmy 927 00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:33,480 Speaker 1: Johnson to win that first championship. So uh, And I 928 00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:35,839 Speaker 1: know Charles at times, and you guys have been around Charles. 929 00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:39,000 Speaker 1: Charles tried to, um, should I say motivate? Would motivate 930 00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:43,200 Speaker 1: be the word that you saw Charles try to what 931 00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:51,680 Speaker 1: would you guys call us? Yeah? Yeah, I call it bully. 932 00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:55,000 Speaker 1: And I don't know about motivation. Motivate, that's that's a 933 00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:57,040 Speaker 1: weird way to motivate. But he had a lot of 934 00:45:57,120 --> 00:46:00,400 Speaker 1: jokes to tell a lot of slights. Yeah, he had 935 00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:02,760 Speaker 1: a ton of jokes. And I don't say it was motivating. 936 00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:05,000 Speaker 1: I said it wasn't motivating because we weren't doing He 937 00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:06,279 Speaker 1: would just come and do it. Would ain't like we 938 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:07,920 Speaker 1: were going to practice or anything. We're just sitting in 939 00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:09,880 Speaker 1: the locker room and he would come and, you know, 940 00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:13,040 Speaker 1: bust somebody up for no reason. So I say it's bullying, 941 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:15,719 Speaker 1: but he I mean, he definitely had a lesson or 942 00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:18,120 Speaker 1: two taught to him coming into the locker room trying 943 00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:20,320 Speaker 1: to bully people. I'm in A couple of my teammates 944 00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:22,880 Speaker 1: had to let him know what's up. But overall, just 945 00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:25,600 Speaker 1: you know, his type of his type of leadership was 946 00:46:25,680 --> 00:46:28,239 Speaker 1: probably prominent back in the nineties when he played. I mean, 947 00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:29,880 Speaker 1: usually the you know, the best player or one of 948 00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:31,279 Speaker 1: the best players on your team is going to be 949 00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:33,920 Speaker 1: that leader of the team. And it was probably you know, 950 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:36,600 Speaker 1: he probably wasn't looked that bad back then in the nineties, 951 00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:39,080 Speaker 1: but nowadays it's just it's not happening. So I just 952 00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:41,399 Speaker 1: don't think he would his leadership style would have worked 953 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:46,160 Speaker 1: either around. Yeah, and I can't call it motivation because 954 00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:49,680 Speaker 1: because it wasn't well, just from what what I've experienced 955 00:46:49,680 --> 00:46:52,239 Speaker 1: from Charles Hayley is it wasn't followed up by any 956 00:46:52,280 --> 00:46:56,600 Speaker 1: instruction or constructive criticism. It was just pointing out what 957 00:46:56,920 --> 00:46:59,040 Speaker 1: was done bad or bad you played or whatever. This 958 00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:01,120 Speaker 1: is matter that making joke and then laugh and then 959 00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:03,200 Speaker 1: just trying to try to make it loud around the 960 00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:05,160 Speaker 1: locker room. It wasn't done it in a way of 961 00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:07,960 Speaker 1: trying to help you become a better player. And Michael 962 00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:10,160 Speaker 1: Jordan you see that. Yeah, he talked less about you 963 00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:12,120 Speaker 1: and did all that, but when he got to practice, 964 00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:14,560 Speaker 1: you will see him on the side like coaching and 965 00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:17,440 Speaker 1: trying to help his teammates become better players so they 966 00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:20,000 Speaker 1: can win a championship. From what I what I've experienced 967 00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:21,719 Speaker 1: with Charles Haley, because I didn't play with him, this 968 00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:23,799 Speaker 1: is just from when I was in the locker room. 969 00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:27,399 Speaker 1: It didn't include any of that. Maybe put a D line. 970 00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:29,560 Speaker 1: I'll give him a D line. He talked to the 971 00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:31,560 Speaker 1: D line. But all the other guys that he kind 972 00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:35,200 Speaker 1: of messed with, it wasn't the same. Charles Hayley could 973 00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:38,640 Speaker 1: be very brash, and Charles would ride you because Michael 974 00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:41,319 Speaker 1: talked before about how hey, look, you know I'm gonna 975 00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:42,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna jump on you. I'm gonna wear you out 976 00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:44,320 Speaker 1: because I want you on my level. And one of 977 00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:47,280 Speaker 1: the stories I remember one time was he was messing 978 00:47:47,360 --> 00:47:50,359 Speaker 1: with Troy and he just kept on talking about Troy, 979 00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:54,160 Speaker 1: and he bet Troy my five hundred bucks he couldn't 980 00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:56,120 Speaker 1: throw the football through this. It was somewhere in the 981 00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:58,560 Speaker 1: locker room. It was a very very small little window 982 00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:00,960 Speaker 1: of something, and he just kept on ride and ride 983 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:04,919 Speaker 1: and ride, and finally Troy just looks up and says, 984 00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:09,000 Speaker 1: ball takes the football. It just whizzes it through this 985 00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:12,719 Speaker 1: hole that Charles Haley claims he can't do. Walks off 986 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:15,120 Speaker 1: and then Charley and it just shut Charles up. But 987 00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:18,120 Speaker 1: Charles is that guy in a way like Jordan, who 988 00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:19,880 Speaker 1: just picked on you and picked on you that you 989 00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:23,080 Speaker 1: had to fight back. But I also see you guys saying, hey, 990 00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:26,160 Speaker 1: what may have worked with the nineteen nineties Cowboys did 991 00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:29,520 Speaker 1: not work with Charles Haley as a retire player. Tried 992 00:48:29,600 --> 00:48:33,600 Speaker 1: to come and say some things that his own Charles 993 00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:37,239 Speaker 1: Haley way into the locker room with you guys, Yeah, 994 00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:39,399 Speaker 1: it didn't work at all. I mean, like you said, 995 00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:42,280 Speaker 1: he was one of those guys where if you didn't 996 00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:44,480 Speaker 1: stand up to him, or if you didn't say hey, man, 997 00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:46,920 Speaker 1: you know, he would just ride you and kiss. And 998 00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:48,520 Speaker 1: I've seen it. I'm not gonna say the names, but 999 00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:50,520 Speaker 1: I've seen him come into the locker room and didn't 1000 00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:53,480 Speaker 1: continually pick on the guy, and the guy just kind 1001 00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:55,520 Speaker 1: of put his head down or say, oh, you know, Charles, 1002 00:48:55,560 --> 00:48:57,600 Speaker 1: you're so funny, and he would just not stop until 1003 00:48:57,640 --> 00:49:00,120 Speaker 1: that guy was finally released. But I mean, it's it's 1004 00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:01,479 Speaker 1: one of those guys where you kind of you gotta 1005 00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:03,320 Speaker 1: stay in your ground. You just you have to. I 1006 00:49:03,360 --> 00:49:05,680 Speaker 1: mean that's just we all know those type of guys, 1007 00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:09,560 Speaker 1: and you know, it's just how they are. Yeah, And 1008 00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:12,080 Speaker 1: I say this, and when I see Charles Hayley, now 1009 00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:15,279 Speaker 1: it's all funny games and laughing. He never like went 1010 00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:17,480 Speaker 1: that went too hard on me. This is just me 1011 00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:21,200 Speaker 1: being observan from the outside looking in. I love Charles Hayley, 1012 00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:23,759 Speaker 1: but sometimes when I see him, I'll make sure I 1013 00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:28,000 Speaker 1: go the other way because I because I because I 1014 00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:30,680 Speaker 1: know how that conversation is gonna go. Sometimes it's just like, 1015 00:49:30,840 --> 00:49:34,080 Speaker 1: oh man, I'm just not ready to relive some of 1016 00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:36,759 Speaker 1: these moments. Sometimes you just don't get the energy to 1017 00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:40,600 Speaker 1: deal with it because some of some of it, some 1018 00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:42,520 Speaker 1: of its still a touchy subject. Man, you don't want 1019 00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:44,600 Speaker 1: to talk about some of them bad games, especially in 1020 00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:47,120 Speaker 1: the way that he's gonna talk about it. You're just 1021 00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:50,480 Speaker 1: not ready for. When you hear this in the locker room, Hello, 1022 00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:55,040 Speaker 1: then you know, yeah, I gotta I gotta, I gotta go, man, 1023 00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:59,319 Speaker 1: I gotta go. As media members, Charles gets on us too. 1024 00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:02,719 Speaker 1: We hear too. He'll come on at let me talk 1025 00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:06,600 Speaker 1: to you about somebody just blue stuff y'all saying about 1026 00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:11,560 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. Charles Chary, I gotta go over here, get 1027 00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:13,680 Speaker 1: my live shot done real quick. Man, I'm gonna come 1028 00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:17,560 Speaker 1: back to you. But he spares no one, spares no 1029 00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:21,080 Speaker 1: one at all. So it is it is Charles, and 1030 00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:23,719 Speaker 1: it's just so dazed when you're like, okay, let me go. 1031 00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:27,200 Speaker 1: I remember one time Dad was Dat was signing autographs. 1032 00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:29,879 Speaker 1: You know how it is at camp afterwards until Dak 1033 00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:32,640 Speaker 1: signing and you know he can't sign enough, and Charles 1034 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:35,440 Speaker 1: pulls him away to have him go sign something for 1035 00:50:36,040 --> 00:50:38,360 Speaker 1: someone who was a guest to hit Dad come in 1036 00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:40,200 Speaker 1: and you know, and you see Dak is trying to 1037 00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:42,440 Speaker 1: do something, and it doesn't matter what Dak is doing. 1038 00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:45,759 Speaker 1: Charles wants soon to come over and start signing for 1039 00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:48,239 Speaker 1: whatever kid he's got, and I'm just looking at I'm 1040 00:50:48,239 --> 00:50:50,160 Speaker 1: just saying in my head like, Glad, I'm not Dak 1041 00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:55,480 Speaker 1: right now, because he can be very He's that you know, 1042 00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:59,799 Speaker 1: he's that loud uncle you have at the barbecue. That's 1043 00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:06,120 Speaker 1: oh boy, Uncle charl He's exactly like that. You got 1044 00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:08,239 Speaker 1: all the love in the world for him. But he's 1045 00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:11,600 Speaker 1: just like Uncle Charles is here. Yeah, it's just one 1046 00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:16,520 Speaker 1: of those guys. Man. Yeah, Uncle Charles. He's feeling good today. 1047 00:51:16,560 --> 00:51:18,920 Speaker 1: So we need to we need to run the other way. Uh, 1048 00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:23,440 Speaker 1: Barry you add you had a point that I thought 1049 00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:26,240 Speaker 1: we needed to touch on here, and that was about 1050 00:51:26,680 --> 00:51:29,680 Speaker 1: how the virtual workouts are going on, but guys are 1051 00:51:29,719 --> 00:51:31,959 Speaker 1: not able to be around each other, coaches aren't able 1052 00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:36,000 Speaker 1: to talk to guys, and how that can affect this 1053 00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:39,560 Speaker 1: team possibly going forward into the year. I'm not having 1054 00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:45,480 Speaker 1: a connection. I think it can affect them immensely. I 1055 00:51:45,560 --> 00:51:47,799 Speaker 1: mean going in usually going into the season, you got 1056 00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:51,000 Speaker 1: captain's workouts which start around March. Then you have you know, 1057 00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:54,759 Speaker 1: the team workouts and OTA's and minicamp. Then you go 1058 00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:57,120 Speaker 1: into training because you have all this time to kind 1059 00:51:57,160 --> 00:51:59,000 Speaker 1: of build a poor back up with your guys and 1060 00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:01,760 Speaker 1: get into football shape and you know, make sure everybody's 1061 00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:03,640 Speaker 1: routes from point and all that good stuff, and learning 1062 00:52:03,719 --> 00:52:06,080 Speaker 1: the playbook, especially a new playbook that's coming in here 1063 00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:08,400 Speaker 1: defensive wise. So I think it's going to hurt them 1064 00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:10,520 Speaker 1: immensely to not have this time together to gail as 1065 00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:13,600 Speaker 1: a unit in jail and understand the defense. So hopefully 1066 00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:15,279 Speaker 1: they'll be able to get into training camp and get 1067 00:52:15,320 --> 00:52:18,200 Speaker 1: it right after it immediately, because if there's not enough 1068 00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:20,160 Speaker 1: time before the season starts out, it's going to be 1069 00:52:20,200 --> 00:52:22,279 Speaker 1: an extremely sloppy opener. In the first couple of games. 1070 00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:23,719 Speaker 1: I think it'll be sloppy, a lot of penalties, a 1071 00:52:23,760 --> 00:52:26,120 Speaker 1: lot of blown coverages. So if they don't get in 1072 00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:28,240 Speaker 1: here pretty soon, I think it will hurt them immensely. 1073 00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:30,759 Speaker 1: But we'll have to wait and see what happens and 1074 00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:36,440 Speaker 1: then what goes on here with this pandemic. Yeah, same here. 1075 00:52:36,480 --> 00:52:39,920 Speaker 1: I agree with Church. Everything he said is special about football. 1076 00:52:40,280 --> 00:52:45,480 Speaker 1: I think what they're also missing is though, that time 1077 00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:47,440 Speaker 1: that you spend with each other when you're working out 1078 00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:49,600 Speaker 1: or when you're going out bowling, on when you're going 1079 00:52:49,640 --> 00:52:51,920 Speaker 1: out to have a drink guard dinner. You missed some 1080 00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:54,400 Speaker 1: of those connections that you make with those guys that 1081 00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:57,239 Speaker 1: make you become a better team or a better unit. 1082 00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:00,520 Speaker 1: I know one big thing for us when me and 1083 00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:02,520 Speaker 1: Church fir Us got here, we would do something every 1084 00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:05,600 Speaker 1: Monday just so we could try to get a unit 1085 00:53:05,719 --> 00:53:08,000 Speaker 1: out or we would become better friends and we have 1086 00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:09,960 Speaker 1: better trust for each other when we got on the field, 1087 00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:13,000 Speaker 1: and a lot of units and players do that during 1088 00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:14,800 Speaker 1: this time during the off season, go fishing and do 1089 00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:16,480 Speaker 1: all that stuff, and they're not being able to do that, 1090 00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:18,880 Speaker 1: So I think some of those connections are being missed 1091 00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:21,560 Speaker 1: as well, on top of what you usually learn when 1092 00:53:21,560 --> 00:53:23,360 Speaker 1: you're on the field, but a lot of a lot 1093 00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:26,879 Speaker 1: of friendships and camaraderie, all that stuff is built when 1094 00:53:26,960 --> 00:53:29,680 Speaker 1: you leave the facility as well. Yeah, I gotta agree 1095 00:53:29,719 --> 00:53:31,359 Speaker 1: with you one hundred percent on that one. D MAC. 1096 00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:33,480 Speaker 1: I mean, like like you said, we had the Monday 1097 00:53:33,560 --> 00:53:35,480 Speaker 1: fundais is what we used to call them. And it 1098 00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:37,919 Speaker 1: doesn't matter if you were you know, secondary defensive line 1099 00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:39,840 Speaker 1: and linebacker or whatever. You just come out and have 1100 00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:41,040 Speaker 1: a you know, a couple of dreams to have a 1101 00:53:41,080 --> 00:53:42,640 Speaker 1: good time with us on Mondays, because you know, we 1102 00:53:42,719 --> 00:53:45,319 Speaker 1: had Tuesdays as our half day and that just built 1103 00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:47,440 Speaker 1: a whole bunch of camaraderie. I mean when when things 1104 00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:49,520 Speaker 1: were bad during the season or a certain player had 1105 00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:51,840 Speaker 1: to just he's down, he's depressed right now, he had 1106 00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:54,200 Speaker 1: a bad couple of games. Those are the times where 1107 00:53:54,320 --> 00:53:57,000 Speaker 1: that camaraderie built during the off season, he can go 1108 00:53:57,239 --> 00:53:58,920 Speaker 1: back to his teammates and say, man, this is what's 1109 00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:00,880 Speaker 1: going on with me right now, Like that doesn't need 1110 00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:02,960 Speaker 1: to help. I need somebody to talk to. But without 1111 00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:05,719 Speaker 1: that camaraderie built up, he feels like he's kind of 1112 00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:07,800 Speaker 1: just any by himself, and that can be a pretty 1113 00:54:07,840 --> 00:54:10,279 Speaker 1: lonely place and can can can bring your game down. 1114 00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:13,040 Speaker 1: So I think that camaraderie is is huge in the 1115 00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:14,759 Speaker 1: game of football, and they're missing out a lot on it. 1116 00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:25,279 Speaker 1: Where was Monday, where's you guys having them Suffoosiptown? It 1117 00:54:25,400 --> 00:54:30,960 Speaker 1: was uptown? Man, my kid, I remember two places way 1118 00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:34,359 Speaker 1: before you guys became cowboys where they had Monday Fun 1119 00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:39,919 Speaker 1: Day and those were some fun time see and see. 1120 00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:44,360 Speaker 1: And with that, and with that also a lot of 1121 00:54:44,400 --> 00:54:46,680 Speaker 1: these guys in church. You remember the lockout? Man, how 1122 00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:49,120 Speaker 1: many people get in trouble because they're not hanging out 1123 00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:51,040 Speaker 1: with each other. They're just going out to do crazy 1124 00:54:51,120 --> 00:54:55,320 Speaker 1: stuff on they all. I mean, the lockout was a 1125 00:54:55,440 --> 00:54:58,439 Speaker 1: rough year. I'll tell I'll tell you st about coming 1126 00:54:58,440 --> 00:55:01,000 Speaker 1: in shape, coming to camp in shaping. Nobody wasn't shaped 1127 00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:04,480 Speaker 1: that lockout. Yeah, it was rough. And you saw all 1128 00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:07,800 Speaker 1: these players getting DUIs and you know, all these domestic 1129 00:55:07,880 --> 00:55:09,759 Speaker 1: violence and all this stuff. All these people were just 1130 00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:11,960 Speaker 1: they wasn't around each other in the locker room. They 1131 00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:13,640 Speaker 1: were just at home or they were out of the 1132 00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:16,960 Speaker 1: streets and not really having a responsibility to their teammates. 1133 00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:18,719 Speaker 1: And you see stuff like that happened. Like we were 1134 00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:22,120 Speaker 1: talking about offline, uh with the guy from Seattle, all 1135 00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:24,000 Speaker 1: of a sudden, this guy's not hanging out with anybody, 1136 00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:28,480 Speaker 1: and it's just him rash of bad stuff because he's 1137 00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:31,319 Speaker 1: I won't say specifically because he's not able to hang 1138 00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:33,239 Speaker 1: out with his teammates, but some of that time that 1139 00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:34,960 Speaker 1: that he had to do with that that bad stuff 1140 00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:36,840 Speaker 1: would have been taken up by being at the facility 1141 00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:43,080 Speaker 1: and working out and hanging out with his with his unit. Yeah, yeah, 1142 00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:49,800 Speaker 1: I hear you, gentlemen. Your thoughts are Jason Garrett and 1143 00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:52,560 Speaker 1: the report that came out that the Giants are gonna 1144 00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:55,719 Speaker 1: run the Jason Garrett offense, which he ran with the Cowboys. 1145 00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:58,640 Speaker 1: So Daniel Jones, who's more of a West Coast quarterback, 1146 00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:03,800 Speaker 1: is gonna run this this Jason Garrett often thoughts, I 1147 00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:06,040 Speaker 1: think I think it could work. I mean, you got 1148 00:56:06,120 --> 00:56:08,880 Speaker 1: Saint Quon Barkley out there, who's a multidimensional back. He 1149 00:56:08,920 --> 00:56:10,840 Speaker 1: can receive out the backfield as well as run in 1150 00:56:10,880 --> 00:56:13,920 Speaker 1: between the tackles. They got some playmakers on the outside 1151 00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:16,160 Speaker 1: Golden tape. I think Slayton the rookie last year had 1152 00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:18,719 Speaker 1: a breakout season. And we know Danny Downs. He can 1153 00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:20,520 Speaker 1: make pretty much all the throws. They might not be 1154 00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:22,560 Speaker 1: as accurate as you want them to be, but he 1155 00:56:22,600 --> 00:56:24,120 Speaker 1: can make the throws. He just got to kind of 1156 00:56:24,320 --> 00:56:27,480 Speaker 1: wrangle in that fumble problem. But other than that, I see. 1157 00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:29,239 Speaker 1: I mean, they got a good tighten the Ingram, so 1158 00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:32,080 Speaker 1: he can take that Jason Witten tight role. They got 1159 00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:34,520 Speaker 1: a decent offsive line that kind of addressed it during 1160 00:56:34,520 --> 00:56:36,840 Speaker 1: the offseason, so I could see this thing, you know, 1161 00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:38,680 Speaker 1: kind of working all right with the New York With 1162 00:56:38,800 --> 00:56:40,640 Speaker 1: Jason Garrett. I mean, he's a good to me, he's 1163 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:44,440 Speaker 1: a good coach and hopefully he'll have success. Yeah. I 1164 00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:48,279 Speaker 1: can definitely see it working, mainly because Jason Garretts. The 1165 00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:50,560 Speaker 1: big thing when he was here was we are going 1166 00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:53,680 Speaker 1: to run the ball, and they have a guy that 1167 00:56:53,840 --> 00:56:55,520 Speaker 1: they can hand that ball to and they can get 1168 00:56:55,560 --> 00:56:57,279 Speaker 1: five or six yards and every once in a while 1169 00:56:57,320 --> 00:56:59,480 Speaker 1: he'll break at eighty at ninety yard run and at 1170 00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:01,879 Speaker 1: a set up everything else for play action and those 1171 00:57:01,920 --> 00:57:04,359 Speaker 1: deep and those deep throws. So I think if you ride, 1172 00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:07,840 Speaker 1: say Quan like he plans on doing, I think they'll 1173 00:57:07,880 --> 00:57:10,080 Speaker 1: have success. I think their offense would be better than 1174 00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:12,880 Speaker 1: expected uh this year, especially with Danny Down's coming to 1175 00:57:12,960 --> 00:57:15,799 Speaker 1: a second year. But everybody I know what's coming, kind 1176 00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:19,919 Speaker 1: of like here, everybody know what's coming, and we still 1177 00:57:20,080 --> 00:57:21,840 Speaker 1: we still were able to run the ball on our 1178 00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:26,120 Speaker 1: best years. They don't have the same one. They know, 1179 00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:29,000 Speaker 1: they don't have the same offensive line up there in 1180 00:57:29,040 --> 00:57:30,560 Speaker 1: New York. We're doing that. They do god have the 1181 00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:33,240 Speaker 1: same offensive line up there. So I think if you're 1182 00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:35,200 Speaker 1: a Cowboys fan and that that should be music to 1183 00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:40,680 Speaker 1: your ears to know, oh man, go go. I think 1184 00:57:41,120 --> 00:57:44,480 Speaker 1: more about g Yes, this is more about Garrett hitting 1185 00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:49,439 Speaker 1: than the actual playing man. Easily listen before he asked 1186 00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:51,480 Speaker 1: the question. You can hear the drop in his voice. 1187 00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:53,960 Speaker 1: He was like, yeah, okay, I so let's talk about 1188 00:57:57,960 --> 00:57:59,560 Speaker 1: what we're talking about. The NFC East right, it's a 1189 00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:01,480 Speaker 1: team to I wasn't going to play twice here. I'm 1190 00:58:01,480 --> 00:58:03,280 Speaker 1: just trying to figure out does Joe Judge get to 1191 00:58:03,320 --> 00:58:05,200 Speaker 1: do anything as the head coach up there, because every 1192 00:58:05,240 --> 00:58:09,880 Speaker 1: time I it's about it, you would have bring it, 1193 00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:12,160 Speaker 1: Mark Colombo. I'm like, wow, is Joe Joe even coaching? 1194 00:58:12,200 --> 00:58:14,320 Speaker 1: What is he is a bigger head? What's he do 1195 00:58:14,560 --> 00:58:18,520 Speaker 1: that I watched? I was watching, Yeah, and they didn't 1196 00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:22,720 Speaker 1: even have the picture of Joe Judge. They had jup right. 1197 00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:26,439 Speaker 1: Oh man, this is the same thing they were saying 1198 00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:27,960 Speaker 1: about j G when he was here. He was just 1199 00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:30,280 Speaker 1: a figurehead and other people were calling this, other people 1200 00:58:30,320 --> 00:58:33,040 Speaker 1: were calling that and how he went in And it's 1201 00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:36,600 Speaker 1: the same situation. So the little presson's offer about he's 1202 00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:39,360 Speaker 1: the he's the offensive coordinator, but head coaching there. In 1203 00:58:39,400 --> 00:58:44,320 Speaker 1: a lot of people's eyes, Joe Judge better called Wade Phillips. 1204 00:58:45,240 --> 00:58:50,320 Speaker 1: Everybody Wade could tell him how this ends. Oh, here 1205 00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:55,919 Speaker 1: we go exactly that. Watch your back, watch your front. 1206 00:58:57,280 --> 00:59:01,960 Speaker 1: Here we go man church. Church.
