1 00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:06,440 Speaker 1: The following He is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot 2 00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:08,360 Speaker 1: Com and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. 3 00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:11,440 Speaker 2: Cowboys. 4 00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 3: This He's Cowboys Storyline with Nick Eatman. 5 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:24,920 Speaker 4: Good morning, Welcome to Cowboys Storyline. I am Nick Eatman. 6 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 4: It is Monday, October the fourteenth. Wow, it's it. Wow, 7 00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:36,600 Speaker 4: What what a week What a weekend that was for 8 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:41,199 Speaker 4: the Cowboys, And yesterday's game against the Lions not what 9 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 4: anyone really expected. And if you say you did, that's fine. 10 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 4: I'm just talking about the ones that called in the show. 11 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 4: I don't think anyone was expecting that a loss, Yes, 12 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 4: that that was. That was one that I thought would 13 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 4: happen or could happen, for sure, but certainly not in 14 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:01,279 Speaker 4: that fashion. And we haven't seen a game like that 15 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:05,839 Speaker 4: hardly ever in in Cowboys history, especially one at home 16 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 4: like that. Just just too much, too much Lions, not 17 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 4: enough Cowboys defense, of course, and we knew the defense 18 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 4: was gonna be in trouble, but but you thought they'd 19 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,399 Speaker 4: have some help, you know, on offense, and they certainly 20 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:23,480 Speaker 4: did not. Three field goals is probably not going to 21 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 4: beat your best high school team, certainly not a really 22 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 4: good Lions squad as well, So let's talk about it 23 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 4: eight eight eight eight five five two two nine seven. 24 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 4: As always, I think it's it's good to point out, 25 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 4: let's be let's be or respectful the best we can 26 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 4: be in a show like this, and then let's also 27 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 4: try to move on and try to get as many 28 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 4: people to call as possible. Have a feeling, a lot 29 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 4: of people have things to say. All right, let's get started. 30 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 4: Ronnie in New Jersey, Ronnie. 31 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 5: Good morning, make good morning, morning. 32 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 4: What's up? 33 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 5: Not much? 34 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 6: Not after that? Nick? 35 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 5: How do you do it? I mean, I know, I 36 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 5: know you're a Cowboys fan. We're Cowboys fans and grew 37 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:12,639 Speaker 5: up Cowboys fans. But damn, when you watch something like that, it's, uh, 38 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 5: it kind of hurts a little, you know. 39 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 4: H yeah, it hurts. It hurts for a few days 40 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 4: and then and then usually you have a game the 41 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,640 Speaker 4: next week, so you just like you just move on 42 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 4: to the next game, you know, and that that doesn't 43 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,239 Speaker 4: happen this week, but because because of the bye, which 44 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 4: is needed. But after a loss like that, typically you 45 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 4: just kind of, you know, because everyone says. 46 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 7: Or yeah and try to fix it. 47 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,639 Speaker 5: But I see the number one thing that I think 48 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 5: this team needs it hasn't had for years, Nick, It 49 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 5: hasn't had it for a long time since since the 50 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 5: Bill Parcells days. And I know everybody's tough, but it 51 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 5: lacks it lacks that toughness. Even when. 52 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: I didn't like Jason Garrett, even when Jason Garrett was there, 53 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: at least they had some toughness. You know, they ran 54 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: the ball, they sort of stopped the run every once 55 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 1: in a while. 56 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 5: They were pretty good. But this team, the offensive line, 57 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 5: the defensive line, it's like it's just not there. Does 58 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 5: they come from the coaches? I mean, I know we're 59 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 5: drafting the players that are tough in college, but once 60 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 5: they get into our program, it seems to kind of 61 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 5: like disappear. So is that on coaching? Is that on 62 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 5: ownership of what's going on? What's your point of view? 63 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, all right, Ronnie, thank you for the call. I mean, 64 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 4: when you can't stop the run and you and you 65 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 4: don't run the ball, it does it does lead to 66 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 4: people saying that, I mean, like what else would it 67 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 4: would it be? It isn't it's a toughness, it's a 68 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 4: it's a mindset. And so I can't argue with you 69 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 4: on on that. You know, for whatever the reason. You 70 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 4: can't just tell me it's scheme on both sides. I don't. 71 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 4: I don't think so. I do think it's a mindset 72 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 4: to run the football and to stop the run. That 73 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 4: that's how you win games, that's how you lose games. Uh. 74 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 4: You see that all these teams that are that are 75 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 4: beating the Cowboys, especially the ones here at home back 76 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 4: even dating back to the playoff loss last year. It's 77 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 4: the ability to come in here and play smash mouth football, 78 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 4: run the ball, and which leads to everything else. So 79 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 4: to answer your question on who who it comes to, 80 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,679 Speaker 4: I mean, it's it's everybody. When you're talking about the culture, 81 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 4: you know, it's the it's the players as well. So 82 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 4: don't just don't just put that on the coaches. It's 83 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 4: the players as well. And too many times this year 84 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 4: I've heard it from Dak Prescott and others about how 85 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 4: they how they practice, how they prepare, And I've said 86 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 4: it so many times, you know, in the last ten 87 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 4: to fifteen years, just how important it is in the 88 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 4: middle of the week, and it just seems like the 89 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 4: Cowboys are are struggling in midweek to be on the 90 00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,279 Speaker 4: same page to practice the right way to prepare hair 91 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 4: and other teams are just way more prepared, and so 92 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 4: that that does fall on your coaches, but it also 93 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 4: falls on the players as well. So yes, I think 94 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,359 Speaker 4: it's a it's a toughness issue, but I think it 95 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,720 Speaker 4: kind of stems from bigger things as well. All right, 96 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 4: let's go to Robbie Coco Beach, Florida. 97 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 8: Good morning, Nick, how are you today? 98 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 4: Oh? Well, you know, yeah, yeah, I hear you. 99 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,600 Speaker 8: Yeah, the same place, man, But just we knew we 100 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 8: were we knew we'd probably lose. I mean the chance 101 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 8: we're not as many starters as we have, as many 102 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 8: injuries as we've got, but I would have hoped it 103 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 8: would have been a little more. Yeah, yeah, I mean 104 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 8: other than that, man, we got a goodbye. It's a 105 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 8: good time. We'll get some guys back healthy, coming into 106 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 8: the after to buy. Hopefully we'll get back to playing 107 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 8: good football. 108 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, I mean right, yeah, And and thanks you 109 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 4: don't think you got anything else, Robbie or are you good? 110 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 8: No, that's it, my brother. You have a good thing. 111 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 4: Appreciate it. Thank you say that again. 112 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 8: I hope people aren't rude to you today, seen as 113 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 8: at Cowboys. 114 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's fine. Got a little bit of that on 115 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 4: Twitter last night. But then again, you know, not anyone 116 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 4: that actually puts their real name on anything. So uh, 117 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 4: that's that's happens. Everyone's tough on Twitter. But I appreciate 118 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,160 Speaker 4: you guys calling in and and and you know, trying 119 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 4: to be as respectful as possible. But it hurts, man, 120 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 4: when you're a cowboy fan like this. I mean, it 121 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 4: hurts games like this, you know. I mean, this isn't 122 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 4: disrespectful to the Lions, but beat by the Lions like that, 123 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 4: I mean, that's not that. I mean, that's that's pretty bad. 124 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:38,239 Speaker 4: I Mean I got asked on a radio show today 125 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,600 Speaker 4: about about, you know, were the Lions rubbing it in 126 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 4: and disrespectful and all that? Maybe, but it's the Lions. 127 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:46,840 Speaker 4: I mean, how many games have they ever had like that? 128 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,799 Speaker 4: And you know, and in their franchise, I mean probably 129 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 4: two or three like that a year. So stop them, 130 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 4: you know, stop them, stop them from doing all that. 131 00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:00,120 Speaker 4: Score some points, score touchdown every now and again, and 132 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 4: and and make that game a little bit closer. So uh, anyways, 133 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 4: thanks for the call. Robbie thinks, yes, that's all they 134 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:07,919 Speaker 4: can do is kind of get ready. Well, it's not 135 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 4: all they can do. There's things that they can do, 136 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 4: and I know that there's a lot of talk about 137 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 4: making some changes. They've got to make some changes, you 138 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:21,119 Speaker 4: know what that is. We'll see They've they've got time 139 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 4: to do it. I'm sure Jerry Jones's UH radio interview 140 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 4: on the one O five to three the Fan tomorrow 141 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 4: morning will probably be UH listened to as much as 142 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 4: as any in the last few years, for sure. All right, 143 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 4: lines are open eight eight eight eight five five two 144 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 4: two nine seven is the number to call. We have 145 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 4: We do have another caller on the line. We go, 146 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 4: Let's go to that Bob in Rio Grand Valley, Bob Nick, Hey, 147 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 4: how you doing? 148 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 6: Oh like you and everybody else in the Cowboy Nation 149 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 6: in the state of shock totals rebocle. But I didn't 150 00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 6: see it coming. I don't think any of us saw 151 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:03,119 Speaker 6: it coming. But I'll tell you what this this bye 152 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 6: week time is. It couldn't come at a better time 153 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 6: because we definitely got to get it together and regroup. 154 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 6: Here's the sunny days. Thanks for taking my call. 155 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 4: I'm crying right with you, all right, Well not crying, 156 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 4: but I get your your reference there you know, it's 157 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 4: it's they're three and three, you know, And that's that's 158 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 4: the thing, like you have to you have to factor 159 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,680 Speaker 4: that in that that you know, you could lose an 160 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 4: overtime heartbreaker and you might feel better about how the 161 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 4: situation was. You'd still be three and three, of course, 162 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 4: and so but but the thing that's the most concerning, 163 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 4: I would think is that you know, you heard it 164 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 4: after Week two against the Saints, Like you know, sometimes 165 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 4: this happens, right you know, it just happens in the NFL. Okay, 166 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 4: but it usually doesn't happen twice. If you're a decent team, 167 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 4: even a good team or a decent team, it happens 168 00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 4: on a regular basis. If you just can't, if you're 169 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 4: just not good enough to compete, that's kind of what 170 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 4: what could happen right now that I mean, that's that's 171 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 4: something that's on the table. You know, just just where 172 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 4: this team is. I mean, they they haven't beaten a 173 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 4: good quarterback. I think the Steelers are a pretty good team. 174 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 4: Their record says they are, but I don't think they 175 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:21,559 Speaker 4: have a good quarterback. So you know, you beat Deshaun Watson, 176 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 4: Daniel Jones and and Justin Fields, So you haven't. You 177 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 4: haven't beaten a quarterback. That's that's you know, that's won 178 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 4: a lot of games in this league. It's been accurate 179 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,439 Speaker 4: that knows how to go and move an engineer and offense. 180 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 4: You haven't been able to do that. When you face 181 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 4: a team with a good quarterback, it hasn't gone well 182 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 4: at all this year. So that's that's problematic because you know, 183 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:49,559 Speaker 4: Rock Purty is pretty pretty good, Kirk Cousins is good. 184 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 4: You know, Jalen Hurts good. You know, you've got good quarterbacks. 185 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 4: I don't know about great, great quarterbacks on the schedule, 186 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 4: but I mean when you look at See Stroud and 187 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 4: what jayde Daniels is doing, and Joe Burrow and Baker Mayfield, 188 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 4: I mean, you got good quarterbacks on the schedule. You 189 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 4: just lost to Jared Goff. He made him look phenomenal, 190 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 4: you know, So that's that's kind of problematic for sure. 191 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 4: All right, let's go to Clause in Daytona Beach, Florida. 192 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 9: Morning. How are you good? You know, I've been a 193 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 9: die hot fan since I came to this country, you know, 194 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:31,119 Speaker 9: and then I moved with the military into Albaza, Texas, 195 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 9: went to a lot of Dallas Cowboy games and been 196 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 9: a tie Hout fan forever, you know, but I really 197 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:41,320 Speaker 9: questioning Alf for the performance, Like from our quarterback miss 198 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 9: to then press cut. You know how we could justify 199 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 9: to made him the highest paid player in NFL history. 200 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 9: You know, as a he couldn't even do a single 201 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:58,599 Speaker 9: decent drow. Yeah, and you know, I think for a 202 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 9: man that gets this kind of up for money, you 203 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 9: could expect a little bit more. Yeah. So yeah, I 204 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 9: know not a lot of people probably liking it, but 205 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 9: I think he is to work overpaid quarterback in NFL history. Sadly. 206 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 4: All right, thank you, thanks for the for the call. 207 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 4: He did not play well in the game yesterday for sure. 208 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 4: And uh, when you when you get that kind of 209 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 4: money and you're gonna you're gonna get well. First of all, 210 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 4: when you're the quarterback of the Cowboys, regardless what you're making, 211 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 4: you're gonna get that kind of pressure on you and 212 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 4: the target on your back. But if you get that 213 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 4: kind of money on top of it as the quarterback 214 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 4: of the Cowboys, you you yes, it's going to happen. 215 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 4: Especially the way it went down. I mean it was 216 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 4: he was like, I'm not I don't need to sign 217 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 4: a deal this year. I will go to free agency. 218 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,079 Speaker 4: This is gonna be my number. If you want to 219 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 4: hit it and make it, you know, get this thing done, 220 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 4: then it has to start with the six. It has 221 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:56,839 Speaker 4: to be sixty million a year. That's what I'm gonna do. 222 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 4: If not, I'll go to free agency and probably make 223 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 4: a lot more than that. So and and that is 224 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 4: that is true. It's not like Jerry's the only you know, 225 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 4: owner that would have done that. He just had first 226 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 4: DIBs because he's he's under contract. So that's that's that's 227 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 4: what the asking price is and what what it would 228 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,560 Speaker 4: have been and all that kind of stuff. So but 229 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 4: when that happens, and it happens right before the season, 230 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 4: every throw, every pass, every game, every play is going 231 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 4: to be used right alongside that that that price tag. 232 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 4: And and and that's the way it is. So and 233 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 4: he's not looking like that guy right now. He hasn't 234 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 4: played that way this year, hasn't he need? I mean, 235 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 4: when you sign a quarterback and a receiver, you're what 236 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,199 Speaker 4: you're saying is is, hey, these these are the two 237 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 4: guys for this year for years to come. And and 238 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 4: knowing that it's going to be hard to build the 239 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 4: team around it. They're good enough to carry the team. 240 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 4: And when you have a game like they did yesterday, 241 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 4: where the defense is absolutely gutted with injuries, you've got 242 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 4: to be able to know your quarterback has got to 243 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 4: be able to lead the offense in a better way 244 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 4: than that. And so, and I get it, where the 245 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 4: defense is, you know, doesn't help. And so now you're 246 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 4: you have to be a little one dimensional and all 247 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,959 Speaker 4: that that stuff. I understand that, but but there were 248 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:21,559 Speaker 4: chances the game doesn't get out of hand completely until 249 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:25,560 Speaker 4: like the second half ever, So I mean it's you know, yeah, 250 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 4: you're down seventeen points, twenty points, still can do you 251 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 4: can still function, you can still score. Scoring touchdown would 252 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 4: have been fine. You could do all that stuff, and 253 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 4: the Cowboys just never could, never could get it together. 254 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 4: Three field goals. That's just that's not unacceptable. So, yes, 255 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 4: I understand that the price tag comes with every everything 256 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 4: he does. That's part of it. He's not he's not 257 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:50,079 Speaker 4: playing that to that caliber at all. Right now, All right, 258 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 4: Rob in Vegas, Hey. 259 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 5: Nick. 260 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 4: Good. 261 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 10: So one thing about losses like this is it doesn't 262 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 10: affect me like if they lose like twenty eight, twenty seven, 263 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:04,960 Speaker 10: because they were never in the game. I mean maybe 264 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 10: the first fall five minutes and that's it. We've never 265 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,199 Speaker 10: seen this. The worst loss I've ever seen before this 266 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 10: one was in nineteen eighty five when the Bears beat him, 267 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 10: but they weren't a good team. Then they're just flat 268 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 10: out getting embarrassed by these teams. I mean the Lions. Yeah, 269 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 10: the Lions embarrassed them. I mean they were they were joking. 270 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 10: I mean they were. And if you look at the teams, 271 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 10: the teams that just blue a source the field, they're 272 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 10: bully teams, they're tough teams, and we're not. We're we're 273 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 10: a white collar team. I always say that we're not 274 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 10: a blue collar team. And you can't you can't fix that, 275 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 10: especially what eleven games left. That's a culture change. Dak 276 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 10: Dak is just he's regressed because he he doesn't use 277 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 10: his legs anymore. We've always said that that's a good quarterback. 278 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 10: Now when you throw his running ability in, that makes 279 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 10: a very good quarterback. But he doesn't run anymore. Uh, 280 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 10: And they don't call any r p O s and 281 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 10: as they do, he doesn't keep Yeah, no, Fergut, Ferguson 282 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 10: isn't playing as good. Lamb isn't playing as good. Trayvon 283 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 10: Diggs made a couple of business decisions yesterday. Uh, when 284 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 10: you when your high priced players are supposed to carry 285 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 10: the team are not doing it, this is what's gonna happen. 286 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 10: And that's why I always say you got to go 287 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 10: for it because as fans and we we we figure, oh, 288 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 10: you know, well, last year with this good, we should 289 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 10: be better next year. It doesn't work that way. You know, 290 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 10: you you can't guarantee you know this guy's good one 291 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 10: yet you just assuming he'll be better like a Ferguson 292 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 10: were assuming he's going to be better. No, right now, 293 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 10: he's not. He hasn't been better than Schultz. It's just 294 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 10: I don't know you Mike McCarthy. You know people talk 295 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 10: about they're not going to fire him. We won't do 296 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 10: that because I've never seen this team get embarrassed like this. 297 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 10: Three games, home games, national television game, and if he 298 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 10: has a bit fire, then I confirmed. I don't know. 299 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 7: You can't. 300 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 10: I don't think you can fix. 301 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 11: This this year. 302 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 10: Jerry Jerry kind of said it was a soft rebuild, 303 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 10: and this is what we see. Unfortunately, I think we're 304 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 10: gonna see this again next week when we play Sam Ram. 305 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 10: You know, the this is this is now, it's just 306 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 10: gonna be. We're just gonna to write it up. 307 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 4: All right, all right, Rob, Well, I agree with a 308 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 4: lot of things you said there. I don't I don't 309 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 4: agree that's not what they're going to see next week, 310 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 4: though I can. I'll promise you that one they're not. 311 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 4: You won't see that. You won't. You won't see that 312 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 4: kind of game that next week. And I get what 313 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 4: the forty nine ers did to them the last game. 314 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 4: It kind of was very similar forty two to ten. Uh, 315 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 4: And so that's what it looks like they that won't 316 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 4: happen in this game. I just there's no way coming 317 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 4: off of bye week that that that will be the 318 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 4: case with the with with the guys that I would 319 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 4: expect to come back. But then again, who knows. Like 320 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 4: again the Kendricks thing, I don't really know the situation 321 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:12,720 Speaker 4: there with the shoulder, I mean, shoulder calf is what 322 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,919 Speaker 4: it said on the injury report. You know, if it 323 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 4: both of those could could be bad depending on what 324 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:20,399 Speaker 4: it is. I mean, it could be a lot longer 325 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,120 Speaker 4: than that than just a couple of weeks, so hopefully 326 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 4: that for him it's not darn Bland. I think he 327 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 4: got some soreness uh there that that he you know, 328 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 4: they just decided to hold him back. He wasn't as 329 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 4: ready as they thought he would be. We'll see about 330 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 4: Michael Parsons. That's that's huge test where it should start. 331 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 4: Michael Parsons changes a lot of that, what they're doing 332 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:44,439 Speaker 4: on defense and the pressure that they can provide. So, 333 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,240 Speaker 4: you know, I think the forty nine ers are getting healthy, 334 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:50,199 Speaker 4: they're looking better as well. But I'll be real surprised 335 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 4: if the Cowboys have of a bye week and then 336 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 4: come back from that and and and and play like that. 337 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,959 Speaker 4: If that's the case, then then there will be changes 338 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 4: across the board. I would think in the middle of 339 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 4: the year if that happens, because now you're starting to 340 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 4: see a pattern, you know, and it's hard to say 341 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 4: that right now with the injury situation that they have, 342 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 4: but you start getting a little bit healthier and still 343 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,360 Speaker 4: that same type of thing happens, then that's that's one 344 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 4: where I do think you'll see some changes there, but 345 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 4: who knows, it's still we still got a couple of weeks, 346 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:24,359 Speaker 4: so that let's try to We'll see if they can 347 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 4: get healthy there first.

Huh yeah, I said, here we go. 385 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 14: I don't think we can flush this one. Man, I 386 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:44,879 Speaker 14: think the plumbing is all shot. Yeah, I mean this 387 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 14: has clearly been an issue since the playoff game against 388 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 14: the Packers, being able to stop the run and just 389 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:55,639 Speaker 14: getting trampled at home. And I think a microcosm of 390 00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:59,959 Speaker 14: the story of my fandom. I'm thirty one years old. 391 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 14: The microcosm of my fandom is Jalen Tolbert losing the 392 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 14: ball in the sunlight yesterday. I mean, it feels like, 393 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 14: you know, this great stadium has been built without consideration 394 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 14: of how it's going to affect the game. And then 395 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:17,639 Speaker 14: even when problems are presented about the stadium, put curtains up. 396 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 14: You know, there's no attempt to address that. And I'm 397 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 14: talking about the team. We're not physical. The stopping the 398 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,120 Speaker 14: run has been a problem since the Rams playoff game 399 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 14: in twenty eighteen. 400 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 9: C J. 401 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 14: Anderson still is in my nightmares right, Like I can 402 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 14: maybe count on two or three fingers times that I 403 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 14: really felt this team, this franchise was dominant. I know 404 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 14: we were banged up yesterday and we're gonna be banged 405 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:47,159 Speaker 14: up all season, but we don't have the talent. It 406 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 14: feels like this is a hollow team. It has been 407 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 14: for a long time. I love them, and I'm gonna 408 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,640 Speaker 14: watch every game. I've gone down with the ship every 409 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:01,159 Speaker 14: single year. But it's just this appointing, and this is 410 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 14: the product that we get. I I I don't know 411 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 14: what else there is to say. Even if they go 412 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 14: on a run, I'm not confident they're playing football, you know, violent, 413 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 14: smash mouth. We can we can beat you whatever way 414 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 14: you present. You know, I don't think that's the state 415 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 14: of this team, and hasn't frankly been the state of 416 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 14: any team in my fandom. 417 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:26,680 Speaker 7: And so. 418 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 14: You know, onto the buy, hit a reset, and we'll 419 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 14: see about San Francisco. 420 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 7: The Lions did. 421 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 14: To us yesterday what we longed to do to San Francisco, 422 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 14: and I fear that we're about to get punched in 423 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,679 Speaker 14: the mouth again. So I'll hang up, but have a 424 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:46,120 Speaker 14: good one, Nick, Thanks for taking the call. 425 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 4: All right? Thanks? All right, let's go to Dylan in Northport, Florida. 426 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:52,880 Speaker 9: Again. 427 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:54,959 Speaker 4: So what's up? 428 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:55,880 Speaker 9: Hey? 429 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 7: Can you hear me? 430 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 11: How are you doing good? How are you man? 431 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 9: Hey? 432 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,640 Speaker 11: Sorry? Yeah, I just clicked over. So just a couple 433 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 11: of quick things. So, like most games, it's kind of generic. 434 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,120 Speaker 11: But this game was won and lost in the trenches. 435 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 11: One team showed up, one team didn't. I think we 436 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 11: can put to rest the Tyler Smith on the outside 437 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 11: conversation because the inside of your your align just collapsed 438 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 11: and that couldn't I mean, he had no time to 439 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 11: do anything, and when he did he wasn't good either. 440 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 11: But I mean the offensive line was in shambles yesterday. 441 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 11: Taking the ball to start the game. It's getting old. 442 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 11: I don't I don't agree with the logic. I'll never 443 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 11: agree with the logic back to that possessions. The potential 444 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 11: for that is way too powerful. So especially when your 445 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,160 Speaker 11: offense can't score touchdowns, I'm not sure why we continue 446 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 11: to take the ball to start the game. And then 447 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 11: the last thing here, nobody's gonna want to hear it, 448 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 11: but Dallas has six to eight games. You games and 449 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:50,399 Speaker 11: quarterbacks earlier. They've got six to eight games left versus 450 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,440 Speaker 11: the average or below average team, so they'll be competitive 451 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 11: in those games. I don't know if they win all 452 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 11: eight of them if It really depends on a lot 453 00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:59,880 Speaker 11: of different factors. But I can see them winning six seven, 454 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 11: and now you're at nine wins, ten wins, getting the playoffs. 455 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,159 Speaker 11: You're one and done in the playoffs, and so for 456 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 11: that reason, I don't think Dallas is going to move 457 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 11: on from Mike McCarthy mid season. They don't fire coaches 458 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:13,239 Speaker 11: mid season anyways, typically wait till this is the last one, 459 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 11: I think, the only one they've ever fired mid season. 460 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 11: So I don't really expect that change un lest they 461 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:20,160 Speaker 11: start losing to these below average teams on their schedule 462 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 11: down the road here. So yep, that's all I got me. 463 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 11: I want to get yourself on that. 464 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 6: I appreciate it, all right, you. 465 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:28,439 Speaker 4: Know, you're right, they they don't typically do that in 466 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 4: the middle of the season. That was a one in 467 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:34,919 Speaker 4: seven team and that went to Green Bay got completely embarrassed. 468 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,959 Speaker 4: McCarthy was the coach on the other side there, but uh, 469 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:44,680 Speaker 4: you know, completely embarrassed in that game. And so yeah, 470 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:48,120 Speaker 4: you've seen games like that here, So you keep doing 471 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:52,399 Speaker 4: that a lot, and that's that's that'll that'll be what 472 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 4: takes him down that road. And you know that team 473 00:24:56,320 --> 00:25:01,200 Speaker 4: lost Tony Romo to injury is well, and had probably 474 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 4: some other injuries there too. So but I still think 475 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:08,159 Speaker 4: the way the defense and just the amount of injuries 476 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:09,679 Speaker 4: that you that you have on one side of the 477 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:13,199 Speaker 4: ball that's not you know, it's just the reason it's 478 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 4: it's the reason why they're the defense can't stop anyone 479 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:19,919 Speaker 4: right now is you just can't have that many injuries 480 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,119 Speaker 4: on one side and in one year and expect it 481 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 4: to be better. But what you do expect is that 482 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 4: the offense can can play complimentary football to the point 483 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 4: where where you try to keep them in the game, 484 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 4: try to make it competitive a little bit. Can't can't 485 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:34,879 Speaker 4: do it. Can't do it with three field goals. It's 486 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:41,120 Speaker 4: not going to happen, all right. Mike in Birmingham, England, Hello, Nick? 487 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 2: How are you good? 488 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:43,160 Speaker 4: How are you doing? 489 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 2: Probably much the same as everyone else today? To be honest, Nick, 490 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 2: I didn't know if i'd get in today. I thought 491 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:52,440 Speaker 2: this is going to go one of two ways. Either 492 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:56,399 Speaker 2: everyone will be boycotting or the phone will be ringing 493 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 2: off the hook. But despite the circumstance, it's very good 494 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 2: to speak to. And let me say, last Thursday, when 495 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 2: you were doing the Who's Hot and Who's Not? I 496 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:08,680 Speaker 2: tried to get in that day and who was hot? 497 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 2: Was you in that shirt? That was a very nice shirt. 498 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:14,120 Speaker 2: I thought you were maybe had a job interview after 499 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:15,440 Speaker 2: the show or something like that. 500 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 9: Very nice. 501 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 2: There you go. 502 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:21,399 Speaker 4: You know, if you guys, if you guys boycott the 503 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 4: show like you said that it could happen, then I 504 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:27,919 Speaker 4: might have to do a job interview. But let's not 505 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 4: do that. 506 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 2: Thank you, then we'll never leave you. So look, I'm 507 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 2: not going to be one of those people that comes 508 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:38,639 Speaker 2: on and claims to have the answers. Really, I've just 509 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,439 Speaker 2: rung up for a bit of therapy, if that's all 510 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:45,679 Speaker 2: right with you. I was pretty cross last night. I 511 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:50,119 Speaker 2: mean I stayed up till about quarter one it finished 512 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 2: last night. I first I should say, as well, thoughts 513 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 2: to Aiden Hutchinson that was that was pretty horrible. 514 00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 15: Great player. 515 00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:03,160 Speaker 2: I hope he's on the Men's pretty soon. But yeah, 516 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:06,400 Speaker 2: and I Randy was there yesterday, wasn't he. He took 517 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 2: the time to do a two hundred mile journey two 518 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 2: hundred miles back again to watch that. And I just 519 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:19,120 Speaker 2: think the players there. I know nobody sets out to lose, 520 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:22,639 Speaker 2: and I know the circumstances, but I think those guys 521 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,360 Speaker 2: that were playing yesterday needed to just have a look 522 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:29,800 Speaker 2: around at the ninety thousand people. They're vast majority Cowboys fans. 523 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:33,920 Speaker 2: People like Randy who have traveled, and you know, most 524 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,640 Speaker 2: of us would trade our grandma to have the opportunity 525 00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 2: to do what they do. And you know, one day 526 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 2: I'm going to come to that stadium and watch a game. 527 00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,679 Speaker 2: And I've done the math. It's not going to be 528 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 2: this year, but I've done the math. It's going to 529 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 2: be eighteen hundred dollars plus for hotel flights, ticket tripped 530 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 2: us South Fork while I'm there, you know, And I 531 00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:59,919 Speaker 2: accept that we might not win because that is sport. 532 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,159 Speaker 2: I'm a fan of Watford f C and the England 533 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 2: cricket team. Believe me, I can accept losing, but I 534 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 2: do not accept that last night that was pathetic. To 535 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:15,720 Speaker 2: a man, that was pathetic. And we need a big 536 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 2: reaction against Sam Franz and we might not win that one, 537 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 2: but we need to compete and players, you know, second 538 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 2: string players who had their opportunity last night to say, hey, 539 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:29,000 Speaker 2: I may not be as good as Micah Parsons, but 540 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 2: look at me. This is what I can do, this 541 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 2: is what I can offer, and we got nothing. And 542 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 2: that's as cross as I've been watching this team unfortunately. 543 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 2: So if you can cheer me up, Nick and or 544 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,760 Speaker 2: you know, tell me, I'm being ridiculous. Then that's absolutely fine. 545 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 2: I'm happy for. 546 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 4: That, all right, Mike, thank you for calling, Thank you 547 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 4: for supporting. I mean, obviously as later a game over 548 00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 4: there for you in England, so it was already what 549 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 4: one and morning when the game was over. I'm not 550 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 4: gonna change your mind on that. There's nothing to cheer 551 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,800 Speaker 4: you up for right now. I mean like there's I 552 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 4: mean you could say, well, it's a long season. There's 553 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 4: still you know what, eleven games to go. Is that 554 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 4: good or bad? I mean, like I don't know, I 555 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 4: don't know if it's gonna be more of those. No, 556 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 4: that's not a good thing. I mean, guys, it's not 557 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 4: my job to try to cheer people up for it. 558 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 4: This is I'm gonna let you guys have the mic 559 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 4: and and and and rant today as long as you, 560 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 4: you know, keep it respectful, which you guys have done. 561 00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 4: I mean, like, I get your frustration. I totally understand 562 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 4: that you expect more, expect more from from this team. 563 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 4: You know, you hear it all the time when people say, well, 564 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 4: those guys get paid too, Well what about with your 565 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 4: own team? I mean, you know these guys get paid 566 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 4: to Yeah, they're they're not they're not star players, and uh, 567 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:58,040 Speaker 4: but you still expect a better showing than that. You know, 568 00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:00,720 Speaker 4: some of these injuries happen later in week. Some of 569 00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 4: them did not, though, so it's not like a surprise. 570 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 4: Get these guys ready to play, and you know, you 571 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 4: had a couple of nice, gutsy wins at the Giants 572 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 4: at Pittsburgh, you know, where you had to kind of 573 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 4: fight and bond together. But man, it certainly didn't happen 574 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 4: in this game, and the offense just really let them 575 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 4: down and allowed the defense to kind of do what 576 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:27,240 Speaker 4: you expect from the defense, especially if you're getting no 577 00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 4: help from the other side of the ball. I can't 578 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 4: stress that enough. I mean, I'm sorry the defense, you 579 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 4: know they get somewhat of a pass. But the offense, 580 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 4: what's the excuse there? I mean, you switched up the 581 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 4: offensive line to get your best starting five. Apparently you 582 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 4: got your quarterback, you know, Jalen Tolbert. You know they 583 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 4: told us Jalen Tolbert interpin, you know that they could 584 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,200 Speaker 4: help with with cooks and you don't have any problem 585 00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 4: at running back because they don't change anything there. So 586 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 4: they're good at running back. In their mind, and then 587 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 4: Jake ferguson a tight end. You get all you got it, 588 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:06,120 Speaker 4: so you got I can't stress it enough. You got 589 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 4: three field goals from that offense. That's that's where the 590 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 4: problem was right there. Yeah, you can say forty seven points, 591 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 4: but one interception went into the one yard line. Two 592 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 4: interceptions got thrown into the ind zone. So I mean 593 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 4: the score touchdown on some of those field goal drives too. 594 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 4: You're getting more points. You're probably taking points away from them, 595 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 4: shortening the game and making it more competitive, putting a 596 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 4: little bit more pressure on the Lions to go make 597 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 4: a play. Not to say that they wouldn't, but you 598 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 4: know they You're putting a little bit more pressure on 599 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 4: them by scoring some points, and that never happened. So 600 00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,920 Speaker 4: I can't. I can't say it Enough's it was the 601 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:47,160 Speaker 4: offense there for me? All right? Travis and san Antonio? 602 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 15: Nick, what's going on? 603 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 12: Hey? 604 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 4: Are you? 605 00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 15: We appreciate you? I'm here checking in from my Cowboys therapy, 606 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 15: So man, it's I mean, I picked. I've been sort 607 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 15: of struggling since last night to this morning because I 608 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 15: was like, am I really angry? 609 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 3: No? 610 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 15: I'm not. I wasn't angry, I should say, because I 611 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 15: picked the Lions to win, so more disappointed. But man, 612 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:18,880 Speaker 15: this team has got me going through the seventh stages 613 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 15: of grief, and I think I'm at the anger point 614 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 15: because it's just it's you're right, there's no there's no excuse. 615 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 15: This is not a one I'm not I'm not gonna 616 00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 15: be the guy that's gonna sit there. This is a 617 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 15: one player issue or whatever. This is a everybody owns 618 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 15: this and from the top to the bottom, I mean, 619 00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 15: it's it's a lingering stench that's coming in from last year. 620 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,720 Speaker 15: Because I heard players were talking about referencing last year 621 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 15: in some of their postgame comments. And I really think 622 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:47,840 Speaker 15: that this team. I've said it before, and I don't 623 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:49,720 Speaker 15: say it lightly because I was in the military just 624 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 15: like David from Fort Worth was, But I really think 625 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 15: that this team has PTSD from that that Green Bay 626 00:32:55,880 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 15: game has PTSD on this team and the front office, 627 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 15: they're part of it. That they own and I'm not 628 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:06,959 Speaker 15: making up anything. They just said it. I mean, they 629 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 15: didn't move on from Mike because they were they had 630 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 15: Mike under contract. That was what they what they said, right, 631 00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:15,040 Speaker 15: And when you do that and then you have Mike 632 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 15: who after the Green Bay game tells the players, well, 633 00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 15: I had them unprepared. I could see how the players 634 00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 15: might look at it and go, well, how are we unprepared? 635 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 15: Like do we have the right coach? 636 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 6: Then? 637 00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:28,280 Speaker 15: And then it goes back to the Niners game where 638 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 15: he said the players are nervous. So I can understand 639 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:33,200 Speaker 15: why the players might look at it and go like, man, 640 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 15: do we have the right guy? Because a lot of 641 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 15: people don't want to say it, but I'll say it, Nick, 642 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 15: that's about as close as you get to the quit word. 643 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 15: To get beat that badly in this league. That's damn 644 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:47,960 Speaker 15: near quitting in my opinions. Maybe not all the way 645 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 15: there yet, but it's it. I said at the Normans game, 646 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 15: it's got waite philos vibes. I hate to be that guy, 647 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 15: and I always say, Nick, with the with the with 648 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 15: the uh. I hope I'm wrong, but that's just the 649 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:05,320 Speaker 15: way I feel we are. We have got to stop 650 00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:08,279 Speaker 15: being the every time we have this loss. I got 651 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,400 Speaker 15: totally just before. I keep thinking about CD in the 652 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,160 Speaker 15: Green baking getting push in the back and doing nothing 653 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,719 Speaker 15: about it, and it just it's sitting in my head 654 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:17,759 Speaker 15: and we have got to stop being the kid at 655 00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:21,319 Speaker 15: school that just is they're handing our five dollars over 656 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:24,480 Speaker 15: telling the bully, like go have a great lunch, all right. 657 00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 4: We got to be the. 658 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,400 Speaker 15: Team that Okay, fine, he might take our five bucks, 659 00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 15: but you're gonna come away with a scratch. And I 660 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 15: and Buddy knows something and I just don't see it 661 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:37,120 Speaker 15: from individual. There's a couple of guys individually, you know, 662 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:40,880 Speaker 15: Jordan Lewis is that guy, but like you need a 663 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 15: collective to do that, and there has to be a 664 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 15: line that's wrong in the stands here, and I just 665 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 15: I don't see it. 666 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean like and I hear that. I mean 667 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,440 Speaker 4: like the whole bully lunch room thing. I mean that 668 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 4: that that that sounds like oh and six vibes a 669 00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 4: little bit, you know, like like I get it, like 670 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:00,120 Speaker 4: they got pushed around. There's no doubt about it. But 671 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 4: I mean you make it sound like it's that every 672 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:03,959 Speaker 4: every game type of thing. 673 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 15: But it's happened four times. 674 00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:12,279 Speaker 4: No, It's okay, all right, it sounds sounds good. Thanks 675 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 4: for the thanks for the call. You're right, it is alarming. 676 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:17,239 Speaker 4: It's it's it's not they're getting they they do not 677 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:19,359 Speaker 4: stop the run, and then and then they can't run 678 00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 4: the ball. So it's all a trenches thing right now 679 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 4: for this team. And that's that's a big h that's 680 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 4: a big issue. I that analogy goes a little far 681 00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,480 Speaker 4: for me. I don't think it's been like that. But 682 00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:34,160 Speaker 4: you know, well, we'll see, We'll see what they're made 683 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 4: of in two weeks. I mean, like like they this 684 00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 4: is the bye. We couldn't come at a better time. 685 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:41,279 Speaker 4: We'll see, but we'll see if they use it to 686 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 4: the right way, you know. I mean that's the Lions did. 687 00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,400 Speaker 4: I mean they came in here fresh and rested and 688 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 4: pissed and and all that kind of stuff, and and 689 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,319 Speaker 4: and played like it, you know, so you know you 690 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 4: can kind of see it coming, but not not to 691 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:55,239 Speaker 4: that extent, but you could see that it was going 692 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 4: to be an issue. I don't remember a game that 693 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 4: that I've that I've covered, 're restly one at home 694 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:04,040 Speaker 4: where you're just like, I don't see it. I don't 695 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:08,200 Speaker 4: see how this is going to, you know, be favorable 696 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:10,760 Speaker 4: for the Cowboys. But I thought it would be closer 697 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 4: than that. I thought I thought the offense would chose 698 00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:17,280 Speaker 4: some pride and get get clicking and get it rolling 699 00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:20,440 Speaker 4: a little bit, and did not did not do that. 700 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:22,719 Speaker 4: Let's go to break one more time here on a 701 00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 4: Cowboy store and I'll be right back. 702 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:28,400 Speaker 3: Discover Aiden, the official luggage partner the Dallas Cowboys and 703 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:32,520 Speaker 3: Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders.

Uh, 727 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:58,640 Speaker 4: Chris in Saratoga Springs, Chris, Hey, Nick, how are you good? 728 00:37:59,040 --> 00:37:59,600 Speaker 4: How are you doing? 729 00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:03,320 Speaker 7: Not too bad? We spoke on Friday and I told 730 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:05,440 Speaker 7: you I didn't agree with you. I thought we might 731 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:07,920 Speaker 7: win this game, and all I can say is I 732 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 7: was wrong. I was definitely wrong. And that was on 733 00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 7: the worst games I've ever seen watched. I don't know 734 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,759 Speaker 7: they changed their game plan though, why they stopped running ricodoudle. 735 00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:25,239 Speaker 7: Zach Martin played probably the worst game I'd seen him 736 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 7: play his entire career. I really thought the only way 737 00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:32,400 Speaker 7: we could beat Detroit is with our offense, holding on 738 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:34,839 Speaker 7: long drive and scoring in the red zone, in which 739 00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:36,719 Speaker 7: again turned the ball over in the red zone. That 740 00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 7: hurt us. You can have as many excuses as you 741 00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 7: want on defense, but your offense has to step up. 742 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:44,799 Speaker 7: And I agree with you one hundred percent. They did 743 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 7: not at all. DAK and CD again seemed a couple 744 00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:52,400 Speaker 7: of times not in the same page. I don't know 745 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:55,840 Speaker 7: how that's even possible. They've been together so long. What's 746 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 7: your thoughts on one, Rico Dowdle not getting the ball 747 00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:05,600 Speaker 7: and to DAK and CD miscommunications again. 748 00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:11,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, all right, thanks thanks for the call, Chris. 749 00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:15,279 Speaker 4: You know, the the offense with with I mean the 750 00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:19,799 Speaker 4: running game with with Rico O'Donnell. I guess I'll have 751 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 4: to go back and look. And of course I dropped 752 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:23,279 Speaker 4: my stats, which I didn't think I would need, but 753 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:26,920 Speaker 4: they're down here. But the thing about it is, I 754 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:29,879 Speaker 4: thought I thought Rico got the ball to start the game. 755 00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,839 Speaker 4: I thought he was kind of the main pack. Then 756 00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:36,080 Speaker 4: later they kind of switched to to Zeke some for 757 00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:40,279 Speaker 4: for pass protection, but for the most part, you know, 758 00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 4: and then at the end of the game, I mean, 759 00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:46,680 Speaker 4: in the game, it was awesome, Richards was playing Cooper 760 00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:51,719 Speaker 4: Rush Jalen Brooks and then Zeke's the running back, so 761 00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,880 Speaker 4: that's that's the position we haven't seen out of him 762 00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:57,279 Speaker 4: in a long time. That's what I think that they 763 00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:02,120 Speaker 4: think of him and with his role. So I don't know, 764 00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:06,080 Speaker 4: I thought, you know, I thought they they mixed it 765 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:09,840 Speaker 4: up a little bit. I mean, again, Rico had a 766 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:13,800 Speaker 4: nice game against against Pittsburgh. But on that last drive 767 00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:16,160 Speaker 4: before they got down there, I mean it was a 768 00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:18,759 Speaker 4: third and one, right, a fourth and one, a third 769 00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,360 Speaker 4: and one, I believe, and Zeke got the ball. So 770 00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:24,880 Speaker 4: it's not like they had just completely switched to Rico 771 00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:30,000 Speaker 4: in Pittsburgh and then now he's the starter. That they 772 00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:32,040 Speaker 4: were mixing it up, and there's a lot of people 773 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:33,840 Speaker 4: that thought Zeke should have got the ball there at 774 00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:37,399 Speaker 4: the end against Pittsburgh down on the one, I'm sure 775 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 4: they had to do it again, they probably would have 776 00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:43,239 Speaker 4: given it to Zeke. So I don't think Rico has 777 00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:46,120 Speaker 4: did anything. It's not like he went for two hundred yards. 778 00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:49,560 Speaker 4: We went for like eighty seven so against Pittsburgh. So 779 00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:52,399 Speaker 4: it's not like he's done so much where like he's 780 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:56,000 Speaker 4: the dude. You know, they still mix it up and uh, 781 00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:58,360 Speaker 4: but at the end of the game, they were playing 782 00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:01,120 Speaker 4: a mop up duty. They were playing Zke. So that 783 00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:03,520 Speaker 4: should tell you a little bit with with what they 784 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:06,560 Speaker 4: think about, you know, the running back situation right now, 785 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:08,920 Speaker 4: I don't know if you if you, if you can't 786 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:10,799 Speaker 4: go to Dalvin Cook at some point just to see. 787 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 4: I mean, I'm not expecting him to make big, big changes, 788 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:17,880 Speaker 4: but right now you've got nothing. I mean from the 789 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:21,040 Speaker 4: running back situation. I mean i'd try anything. I'd try 790 00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:24,440 Speaker 4: to to turn over every stone possible. So if he's 791 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:27,759 Speaker 4: got anything left in the tank, let's see, this will 792 00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:31,319 Speaker 4: be the time I think to try it, coming off 793 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:34,600 Speaker 4: of bye week. But you know, who knows? Who knows, 794 00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:37,200 Speaker 4: because I'm kind of surprised with that one. All right, 795 00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:39,759 Speaker 4: we got to get a couple more callers here. Taylor, 796 00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:44,680 Speaker 4: Santa Barbara, California. Taylor, Hey, good money, Mack. How's it going? 797 00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 4: All right? 798 00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:54,719 Speaker 17: I've just got to breaking it down here. I think 799 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:56,800 Speaker 17: I'm a little tired of us just kind of making 800 00:41:57,040 --> 00:42:00,360 Speaker 17: every one of ours a highest player is this is 801 00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:04,480 Speaker 17: like Tom Brady? How many sees him? How many Super Bowls? 802 00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:07,200 Speaker 17: I don't think he was ever you know, top ten, 803 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:11,440 Speaker 17: top fifteen, maybe like in his bracket a lot his 804 00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:15,440 Speaker 17: team to you know, finances here and there to build 805 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:17,880 Speaker 17: stuff around them, and like, I just feel like we 806 00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:21,120 Speaker 17: can't strap ourselves every year, don't sign any more of 807 00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:24,359 Speaker 17: them with the pick up bottom of the guys, and uh, 808 00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:29,400 Speaker 17: it ain't working anymore then. Like I was an athlete 809 00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 17: when I was younger, you know, obviously not now, but 810 00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:36,759 Speaker 17: I just don't see the competitive visions. Everyone's just like money, money, money, money. 811 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:36,920 Speaker 5: And. 812 00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:40,160 Speaker 17: Yeah, it's just heart right into this point. 813 00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:44,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, Tom Brady is really the only example 814 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:47,759 Speaker 4: there that you have. I mean, that's what players do now. 815 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,760 Speaker 4: I mean players, and I'm not defending them, but that's 816 00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 4: that's it. That's that's the game. It is the money 817 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:56,960 Speaker 4: and it's and it's making sure that they get what 818 00:42:57,280 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 4: you know, they feel like they're they're you know, owed, 819 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,640 Speaker 4: and there's very very few players. I mean, Tom Brady 820 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:05,240 Speaker 4: is one of them. But this is I think after 821 00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:08,000 Speaker 4: he was winning four or five rings and you know 822 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:09,960 Speaker 4: where it was. It was about him trying to be 823 00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:12,040 Speaker 4: the goat and trying to win as many rings as possible. 824 00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:14,799 Speaker 4: And you know, he's still got enough money to put 825 00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:16,440 Speaker 4: a bid in for an NFL team, So I mean 826 00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:19,600 Speaker 4: he's doing something, you know, I mean obviously, so I 827 00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:21,920 Speaker 4: don't know. I just think that that's a rare case. 828 00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:24,719 Speaker 4: You don't really see that a lot anymore. I'm not 829 00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:27,880 Speaker 4: faulting any player for going to get get the money, 830 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:31,360 Speaker 4: because that's what most of all of them are are doing. 831 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:34,399 Speaker 4: I don't even know if Tom Brady was doing that, 832 00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:37,880 Speaker 4: you know, kind of taking less until later on in 833 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:40,040 Speaker 4: his career when it was the focus was really was 834 00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:42,840 Speaker 4: to try to keep getting you know, keep having a 835 00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:45,000 Speaker 4: championship caliber team. 836 00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:49,080 Speaker 17: Yeah, understandable. Fair, Yeah, that's just kind of my thoughts. 837 00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:52,000 Speaker 17: But just it surve to see that, you know, you know, 838 00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:55,200 Speaker 17: the CD top paid back to Paide and then this 839 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 17: is the result that. 840 00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:00,600 Speaker 4: I get it. I get it. Uh. 841 00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:00,920 Speaker 13: You know. 842 00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 4: I talked to my brother in law last night, Andy Marino. 843 00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:08,640 Speaker 4: He's in Stamford, Texas as well, and he had a 844 00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:10,440 Speaker 4: good point of just about that. He was just like, 845 00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:13,239 Speaker 4: I think the frustrating thing for the fans is the 846 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,319 Speaker 4: fact that you do pay all these players and then 847 00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:19,480 Speaker 4: knowing that that you've got, it's hard to build a 848 00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:22,480 Speaker 4: team around it. And I get that, I mean I 849 00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:26,200 Speaker 4: that's the scary part of it all. This isn't basketball 850 00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:29,239 Speaker 4: where like one guy, you know, one Lebron James can 851 00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:31,799 Speaker 4: kind of carry you, and you hope you get other 852 00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:36,839 Speaker 4: guys open. I mean, you really you need eleven. Every 853 00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 4: coach will say it takes all eleven. But yeah, they 854 00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:41,600 Speaker 4: don't get paid the same way. And so when you're 855 00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:45,200 Speaker 4: paying this guy and this guy you know the majority 856 00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:47,759 Speaker 4: of it, you wonder who you're gonna have to fill 857 00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:50,359 Speaker 4: in with the other nine. That's just on one side 858 00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:53,000 Speaker 4: of the ball. So uh, that's a frustrating part. And 859 00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:58,800 Speaker 4: I totally understand that. And then you know, I understand 860 00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:00,200 Speaker 4: where if you if you don't do that, if you 861 00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:04,080 Speaker 4: don't sign that player, then what you know, we've all 862 00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:06,439 Speaker 4: seen that that as well. So it's it's a it's 863 00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:10,160 Speaker 4: a very slippery slope that that the NFL teams have, 864 00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:13,720 Speaker 4: especially with the salary cap and trying to resign these 865 00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:15,919 Speaker 4: great players. All right, let's go to our last caller today. 866 00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:19,680 Speaker 4: We'll be Rebecca in Minnesota. Rebecca, Hey, how are you 867 00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:21,120 Speaker 4: doing well? 868 00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:23,200 Speaker 18: I know I'm I'm a hypocrite because I'm gonna call 869 00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:25,840 Speaker 18: them after a spanking like set only to tell the 870 00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 18: world how I really feel about the Cowboys. I mean, 871 00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:30,080 Speaker 18: like everyone, I love them. I'm a born a fan. 872 00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:32,520 Speaker 18: My parents were life on Cowboys fans, and it's just 873 00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:34,839 Speaker 18: a part of my family's identity. But's for the love 874 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:38,480 Speaker 18: of God, this is embarrassing and other than hanging my 875 00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:40,839 Speaker 18: hat on our history, which I'm released to contative billion, 876 00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:42,279 Speaker 18: there's not a whole hell of a lot to be 877 00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:44,640 Speaker 18: proud of anymore as a fan base. Can we stop 878 00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:47,480 Speaker 18: celebrating number three and three or whatever few stats that 879 00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:49,920 Speaker 18: we have to claim to claim to that we're not 880 00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:51,520 Speaker 18: at the bottom of the barrel? We are in the 881 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:54,440 Speaker 18: atrocious team. We are a bad team. The few things 882 00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:56,120 Speaker 18: that we do well are not things you want to 883 00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:58,239 Speaker 18: brag about. Am I supposed to be happy that we 884 00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:00,799 Speaker 18: have the best field kicker around, supposed to feel batter 885 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:03,359 Speaker 18: that better because we have injured players coming back, Because 886 00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:04,959 Speaker 18: I really don't think that's going to make a huge 887 00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:08,960 Speaker 18: impact going forward. I don't want to celebrate that we 888 00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:11,560 Speaker 18: have old, washed up coaches who have the creativity of 889 00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:13,799 Speaker 18: a wet mop. I don't feel good that my team 890 00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:16,279 Speaker 18: can't play vulleyball, can't run the ball, doesn't have an 891 00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:19,680 Speaker 18: explosive or threatening vertical vertical game, or has a historically 892 00:46:19,680 --> 00:46:22,759 Speaker 18: bad defense. I don't feel optimistic going forward that we 893 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:25,319 Speaker 18: have our team hogtie to a thirty one year old 894 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:28,399 Speaker 18: franchise quarterback. I'm going to challenge you right now how 895 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:31,080 Speaker 18: many teams are going to take this inflighted contract and 896 00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:33,600 Speaker 18: would trade us straight up right now for that. But 897 00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:36,160 Speaker 18: back I doubt that there's any out there. We have 898 00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:39,520 Speaker 18: outdated coaches, We have a bunch of overpriced, overhyped, and 899 00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:42,040 Speaker 18: deeper players as well. Last year was the year that 900 00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 18: Jerry should have been all in. He's too late. That 901 00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:49,520 Speaker 18: window slams shut. The entire situation collapse last year when 902 00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:52,080 Speaker 18: we pee their parents against the Cockers last year in 903 00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:54,760 Speaker 18: the playoffs, and that's what we still haven't changed their pens. 904 00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:57,799 Speaker 18: We are the lasting stuff of the team, to our 905 00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:00,520 Speaker 18: history and our legacy to insist that we are so 906 00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:03,640 Speaker 18: important and relevant, and we're not. We just aren't to 907 00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:07,440 Speaker 18: prove my point. Games like yesterday do nothing except exactly 908 00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:09,280 Speaker 18: what the calories want to do. We're in the news, 909 00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:12,799 Speaker 18: we're relevant. We are nothing but a marketing plot. How 910 00:47:12,880 --> 00:47:15,720 Speaker 18: nice for this upcoming draft, Seeds knowing that we're probably 911 00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:18,200 Speaker 18: going to have a top fifteen pet and how nice 912 00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:20,319 Speaker 18: would that be going into that draft knowing that we 913 00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:23,440 Speaker 18: could have got young very fast, just like these other 914 00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:25,160 Speaker 18: good teams aren't knowing that we would not hit at 915 00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:27,800 Speaker 18: hog times through the contract that we just signed ourselves in. 916 00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:30,239 Speaker 18: Jerry went all in, and he went in all in 917 00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:32,480 Speaker 18: ways too late. Have good week. 918 00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:39,960 Speaker 4: Everyone, nice, thanks, nice, good job Rebecca, well written and uh, 919 00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:43,840 Speaker 4: you know, not that not really from the cusp there, 920 00:47:44,640 --> 00:47:47,000 Speaker 4: but hey, it took the time to do that, write 921 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:49,160 Speaker 4: that out, read it for us. Appreciate it. I mean, 922 00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:51,560 Speaker 4: that's that's how a lot of people feel. I get it. 923 00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:54,239 Speaker 4: I'm sure you'll call back when when you know the 924 00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:56,200 Speaker 4: Cowboys can kind of turn this this around. This is 925 00:47:56,239 --> 00:47:59,040 Speaker 4: what it is. I understand the frustration, get it. Uh, 926 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:01,160 Speaker 4: you know, it's it's it's a good time to take 927 00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:06,440 Speaker 4: the shots at everybody. But you know, the fact of 928 00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:09,120 Speaker 4: the matter is is that you know, they're six games in, 929 00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:12,000 Speaker 4: they are three and three. If you want to give up, 930 00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:15,959 Speaker 4: give up. You know there's a draft show that that 931 00:48:15,960 --> 00:48:18,239 Speaker 4: they'll they'll be starting, you know, next spring, go for 932 00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:21,480 Speaker 4: that if that's the case. But you know, personally, it 933 00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:25,799 Speaker 4: was a terrible embarrassing loss. You said it. I don't disagree, 934 00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:28,920 Speaker 4: but you know what, we're not giving up here because 935 00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:30,640 Speaker 4: that's not what we do. That's not what I can do. 936 00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:33,560 Speaker 4: We're gonna be here next Monday, for sure. I'm sorry. 937 00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:35,640 Speaker 4: I mean we'll be here next Monday. We'll be here tomorrow, 938 00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:38,200 Speaker 4: be here Wednesday, and then we'll get this thing next 939 00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:40,960 Speaker 4: Monday and get get ready and get things going for 940 00:48:41,080 --> 00:48:43,400 Speaker 4: the forty nine ers. Jump on if you want to 941 00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:46,239 Speaker 4: jump off, if you need to that that's fine as well. 942 00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:49,600 Speaker 4: But but you know, maybe things like that help, you know, 943 00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:52,279 Speaker 4: get that off your chest. Great, wonderful. This is a 944 00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:56,319 Speaker 4: show for that. Congratulations. But we'll be here, We'll be 945 00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:58,560 Speaker 4: here tomorrow. We'll talk it, We'll see what we can do, 946 00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:01,759 Speaker 4: try to talk this thing through. I know it's been 947 00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:03,880 Speaker 4: a tough day and it will be a tough couple 948 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:07,160 Speaker 4: of weeks until the Cowboys play again. But I appreciate 949 00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:10,560 Speaker 4: you guys today a lot of good stuff, respectful for 950 00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:13,800 Speaker 4: the most part, and appreciate that because it's not easy 951 00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:16,200 Speaker 4: to do after a game like that. Hang in there. 952 00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:19,160 Speaker 4: We'll be back tomorrow on Cowboys storyline. For Chris Beam, 953 00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:20,480 Speaker 4: I'm Nick Eatan.
