Speaker 4: we'll try to get through it. But this week shouldn't

12
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:52,159
Speaker 4: be that difficult. Everybody's excited about there, should be excited

13
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,320

Speaker 4: about the New Orleans and so we can go a

16
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 4: little bit backwards, a little bit forwards, whatever you guys

00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,560

Speaker 4: at ten am eight eight eight eight five five two

20
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:14,320
Speaker 4: two ninety seven is the number two call say ten am,

00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:15,320
Speaker 4: that's Central time.

22
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 5: Uh.

23
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 4: And we're here every day and we're just like, just

24
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 4: like the Cowboys were against the Browns, there was an

25
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 4: it was an all day thing. We're still talking about that.

26
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 4: We'll talk about the games moving forward from a Monday

27
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 4: night game. Uh, the forty nine ers had against the Jets.

28
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 4: That was interesting to see. So Christian McCaffrey out. They

29
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 4: still just plugging along though, So we'll try to keep

30
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,680
Speaker 4: it focused though on the Saints ahead. But yet we

31
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:44,839
Speaker 4: do like to look at the rest of the NFC,

32
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,559
Speaker 4: the rest of the NFL, especially when you're talking about

33
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 4: some of the top teams. So all right, eight A A, eight,

34
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 4: five five to two nine seven is the number two call,

35
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 4: and we'll just get this thing rolling right off the jump.

36
00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 4: Here Pete is in Connecticut. Your first off was that Pete.

37
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 3: Hey, Nick, how's going?

38
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 6: Man?

39
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 4: Good? How are you?

40
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 3: Second day in a row. I'm trying to represent Connecticut.

41
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 7: Here you go there.

42
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 3: I just want to say, go Cowboys, down with the Eagles.

43
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 3: And I was just wondering what you think will be

44
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:17,640
Speaker 3: the tougher battle this week against New Orleans Saints. Do

45
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 3: you think our offense will be able to put up

46
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 3: a lot of numbers or do you think our defense

47
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,800
Speaker 3: will have a lot of sacks interceptions?

48
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 8: This game?

49
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 3: All right, thank you so much, Let's go Cowboys.

50
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 4: Thank you all right, Pete appreciate that quick and easy

51
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 4: getting it started. I think that on both sides of

52
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 4: the ball. Well, I think that the tougher thing for

53
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,919
Speaker 4: the for the Cowboys will probably be the defense going

54
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 4: up against the Saints offense. I would I would imagine

55
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 4: that's going to be a tougher test than what they

56
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 4: had before. With last week with Cleveland, they just didn't

57
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:54,359
Speaker 4: seem ready to go at all. Deshaun Watson looked very rusty.

58
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 4: The running game wasn't wasn't there. Now, give cowboys credit.

59
00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 4: I mean, you got to give the Cowboys credit for

60
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 4: some of that, but I expect the quarterback to be

61
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 4: more accurate. He was accurate in the game against Carolina.

62
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 4: Uh So they're gonna face a defense much tougher than

63
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 4: they faced last week and against the Panthers, and the

64
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,959
Speaker 4: Cowboys are probably gonna face a tougher offense than they

65
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 4: had before. So you know, something's got to give. I

66
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:24,079
Speaker 4: don't think that either either game will be as dominated

67
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 4: as it was, but you know, expect expect the Saints

68
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 4: to you know that they're Here's the difference though, with

69
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 4: going up against Derrek Carr and what he had with Watson,

70
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 4: the Car is gonna be a lot more accurate. Who

71
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 4: couldn't be I mean seriously, Uh, he's gonna be more

72
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 4: accurate than Watson. But if he gets hit that many times,

73
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 4: he's not gonna shed that many sacks like Watson did.

74
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 4: I mean he should have been sacked ten eleven times. Uh,

75
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 4: Carr won't won't do that. Like, he'll probably get the

76
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 4: ball out quicker. I think they they don't go down

77
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 4: the field as much. They like to keep it short.

78
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 4: Now they do have somemakers that can get down the

79
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 4: field if they need to. But I think you're just

80
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 4: going to see a different type of offense. But that would

81
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 4: be the biggest change there. I think the Saints defense,

82
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 4: it looks looks pretty good, but again it's it's too

83
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 4: early to tell on how things are going to be.

84
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 4: I've always said this, I go back the last ten

85
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 4: to fifteen years. I think Week two is always one

86
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,360
Speaker 4: of the most important games of the season. Every time

87
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 4: you ask me when the schedule comes out, which game

88
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 4: are you looking at? I always say week two. Week

89
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 4: two is so important to me because you're trying to

90
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 4: set the tone for what your season is going to be.

91
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 4: If you get a big win, don't be don't don't

92
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 4: go back and backtrack and lose. And that's how you

93
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 4: get in that eight and eight status by going one

94
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 4: and oh one and one two and build on that

95
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 4: stack wins together. So important to be able to do

96
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 4: that and establish yourself as one of those teams. If

97
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 4: you lose week one, you've got to You've got to win.

98
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,839
Speaker 4: You've got to win them. So I always think that

99
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:56,839
Speaker 4: Week two is so important, and not just for the

100
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,280
Speaker 4: Cowboys but for all teams. So the Saints are trying

101
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 4: to show themselves Cowboys as well. All right, let's go

102
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 4: to Michael in Colton, California, your next Michael.

103
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,840
Speaker 9: Let's go, hey, Nick, I have a question for you.

104
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 9: How about them Cowboy? Let's go hey Nick. Look, man,

105
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 9: I've been a Cowboys fan man as far as I

106
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 9: can remember. You know, I'm not gonna say my whole life,

107
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 9: because of course, you know when I was a baby.

108
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 9: But anyways, get to the point I've man, I've I've

109
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,480
Speaker 9: watched this team through so much stuff and and I'll

110
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,040
Speaker 9: tell you what, man, I have never seen this defense

111
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:33,599
Speaker 9: looking like Sol Sol sound in their defense. Uh, the

112
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 9: focus was amazing. I just also want to highlight. Our

113
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 9: our young stars are these young up and coming stars

114
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 9: we have over shown was Man that dude was he

115
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 9: was bad. And then Marshaw Kneeling Man, he he he

116
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 9: had a great game too, And that's just awesome, you know,

117
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 9: to to have that right there in place for our future.

118
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 9: And I just want to give a shout out to

119
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 9: the coaching staff, Mike Zimmer, you know, also mich McCarthy.

120
00:05:58,920 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 5: I think they did great.

121
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 9: Yeah, And also, like you said, I I am looking

122
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 9: forward to to this Week two matchup against Derek Carr.

123
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:08,480
Speaker 9: But but I'm not too worried about it. At the

124
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,720
Speaker 9: end of the day. Derek Carr is Derek Carr. He's

125
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 9: gonna do Derek Carr type of things, you know what

126
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 9: I mean. But I just want to send a huge

127
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 9: shout out to the whole Cowboys Nation, the team and

128
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 9: everybody else. And I'm gonna go ahead and leave it

129
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:21,840
Speaker 9: at tech id bless you all. Have a great day.

130
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:22,159
Speaker 7: Nick.

131
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 4: Thank you all right. Well, a lot of positivity. That's

132
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 4: that's what I was talking about when when we started

133
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 4: the show. There's just uh uh, that's what happens when

134
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,600
Speaker 4: you get a big victory like that, and that's in

135
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:35,839
Speaker 4: what's what's not to like? I mean, you should be

136
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,160
Speaker 4: excited about what you saw on the defense. I mean

137
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 4: a lot of speed, a lot of speed from the

138
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 4: linebacker position. That's something we just haven't seen. But not

139
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 4: only speed, but then also I mean because you can

140
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 4: get speed at linebacker, you can play Marquises Spell there

141
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,039
Speaker 4: like they did last year. I mean, but it's the

142
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:55,159
Speaker 4: combination of speed and power that's what Overshowing brings. That's

143
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 4: what what you know Eric Kendricks brought. You know, middle linebackers,

144
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 4: you know they don't you don't have to worry about

145
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 4: what their forty time is. I mean, the best middle linebackers,

146
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 4: uh are are the ones that that can see, react

147
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 4: and get there. And I'll never forget it was a

148
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 4: video tape. I might have mentioned this before, but it

149
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 4: always stood out to me. It was a video tape

150
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 4: I have and I was a kid. It was called

151
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 4: like there was an NFL Films video called Crunch Course,

152
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 4: and it was talking about big hitters and guys that

153
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 4: that that were mean and you know, good defensive guys

154
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 4: and and I remember somebody saying about the linebacker Dick

155
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 4: Bukis that if he had to do a forty. It

156
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 4: would take him three days, but he could get sidelined

157
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 4: to sideline faster than anybody on the field. And that's

158
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 4: what a good instinctive linebacker is. Kendricks get up there

159
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 4: and fill the hole us overshown chasing down the quarterback

160
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 4: on the sideline. That's what linebackers see it go and

161
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 4: and run to the ball, hit it, make the play.

162
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 4: So it's not just about speed, but it's about just

163
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 4: the awareness that makes you faster. So but that's that's

164
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 4: something that that is very exciting to see. And I

165
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 4: know that Michael just mentioned that about Derek Carr doing

166
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 4: Derek Carr things, you know, I mean, most teams are

167
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 4: gonna say that about the other quarterback. I guarantee there's

168
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 4: people that will say that about Dak Well, Dak will

169
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,080
Speaker 4: do Dak things or whatever that is. Whatever that is,

170
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 4: just just know that it's going to be better. They're

171
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 4: gonna have a tougher challenge this week, I believe than

172
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 4: they did last week. I mean, Deshaun Watson just was

173
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 4: not accurate at all, and he threw a lot of

174
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 4: passes that the cheerleaders could have caught. I mean, they

175
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 4: were just on the sideline that it just they just

176
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 4: weren't good plays, weren't good football plays. They looked out

177
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,679
Speaker 4: of sync, and so you can definitely tell that it

178
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,680
Speaker 4: was a difference in the way he has played in

179
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 4: the past and what he played in that game. Give again,

180
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:47,080
Speaker 4: give the Cowboys credit for making him look that bad.

181
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 4: All right, Randy, and Texarkana is next? Randy, what's up?

182
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 7: What's happening to my brother? Nick?

183
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 4: How are you doing?

184
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 7: I'm doing great. So I'm seeing something that's starting to

185
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 7: happen again this year already in the first League that

186
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 7: we talked about a lot last year, and that's the

187
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:07,680
Speaker 7: passing game overwhelming our running game and needing to even

188
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 7: it out. And my question to you is, we have

189
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:15,680
Speaker 7: a three headed monster offensive coaching system with Mike and Schottenheimer.

190
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 7: They have both always especially Shodenheimer because his title is

191
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 7: passing game coordinator. The two of them lean heavy passing.

192
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 7: And then you've got Blasgow that's the running back coach.

193
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:31,080
Speaker 7: Do you think that his voice is not being heard?

194
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 7: I mean, I know it's being heard, but I mean

195
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 7: with two guys versus one, do you think that maybe

196
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 7: that's where a lot of the overwhelming passing game starts

197
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,360
Speaker 7: to get in the way, and maybe Blasgow might want

198
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,559
Speaker 7: to speak up and maybe get some more runs in there,

199
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 7: because boy, after watching what the Lions did to the

200
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 7: Rams at the end of the game, we could get

201
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 7: a little bit of that, just a flavor of that. Yeah, yeah,

202
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 7: you know what I mean, Like, I know, I know,

203
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 7: different teams do different things, and we don't have the

204
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 7: personnel that they have to match that, but boy, wouldn't

205
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 7: hurt to try.

206
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:12,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, let's yeah. I mean, I think it's it's early.

207
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:14,720
Speaker 4: Thank you for the call, Randy and and and that's

208
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 4: that's good thinking there on on how they're they're doing

209
00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 4: that with one game down. It's so it's so early

210
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 4: to say. I feel like this is the deja vous

211
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 4: from last year when the Cowboys had that game against

212
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 4: the Giants and even in Week two against the Jets,

213
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 4: where the question was like, what what's wrong with the team,

214
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,959
Speaker 4: what's wrong with the running game? I mean, they they're

215
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 4: kicking too many field goals, and I just think you

216
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 4: get to a point where you just you just managed

217
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 4: the game, like like you can tell it's almost like

218
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 4: a like a boxing match, you know, where the fighter

219
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 4: goes out and he's he's dominated the first six seven

220
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 4: rounds here, he's won them all, and he's got them staggered,

221
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 4: and he's got this thing. Just don't do anything stupid

222
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 4: and get caught and take a shot, and then they

223
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 4: could be over. That's the only way you're gonna lose.

224
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 4: And so once that gets established, it changes everything. Remember now,

225
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 4: the Browns they played five quarterbacks last year and they

226
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 4: were eleven and six. They were a good football team,

227
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 4: and their offense had no consistency at all. So what

228
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 4: was good obviously their defense. And you get to a

229
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 4: point where you get a conservative Cowboys switch to conservative offense.

230
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 4: They're in the second half, Why do anything crazy? This

231
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 4: game is over, This game is over. The Browns can't

232
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 4: do anything. And so once that happens and you combine

233
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,199
Speaker 4: those two together, I think that's what it's going to

234
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 4: look like. Yeah, you would like them to blow them

235
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,240
Speaker 4: off the ball and run better and all that kind

236
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 4: of stuff, but that's not really the way the Cowboys

237
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:49,079
Speaker 4: are built right this second to be that way. Now,

238
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 4: I'll say this though, when it was time to go

239
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 4: score with it, you had first and goal of the three.

240
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:55,160
Speaker 4: That's what I wanted to see could they run the

241
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:58,280
Speaker 4: ball in? They did with one play, they ran it in.

242
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,320
Speaker 4: So when it's time to run, can can they do that?

243
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 4: It's been one game, it was. It's a tough one

244
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:05,839
Speaker 4: to tell. So I don't I don't really know about

245
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 4: who's doing what, who calls the plays, and I mean,

246
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 4: I know McCarthy calls the plays, but as far as

247
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 4: having the running backs coach speak up and all that,

248
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,680
Speaker 4: you know, Mike McCarthy has been there with Green Bay

249
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 4: for for years and he you know, he had Brett

250
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 4: Favre and he had Aaron Rodgers. They he throws the ball.

251
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 4: I mean, that's that's his offense. He throws the football around.

252
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 4: And if you if you have a good connection with

253
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 4: your receivers, your tight ends, your backs, with your quarterback,

254
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,679
Speaker 4: you can throw the football and still be somewhat conservative,

255
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,200
Speaker 4: still be ball control if you can can be on

256
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,200
Speaker 4: the same page, and and and so I like the

257
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 4: way that the first game is let's see before it's

258
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 4: you know, let's see, let's before we call it a

259
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,360
Speaker 4: trend of them not running, Let's see what happened. They

260
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,200
Speaker 4: they knew about halftime, they were winning that football game.

261
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,400
Speaker 4: So that's how they managed the second half. I had

262
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,720
Speaker 4: no problems with it. Let's see what happens when you

263
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 4: really get into games where you really have to run

264
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,960
Speaker 4: the football. It's imperative to run. Let's see if they

265
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:03,559
Speaker 4: can do it or not. All right, I'm gonna go

266
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 4: to a text message question. That's another thing we do

267
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,679
Speaker 4: on this show. We get text messages on the text line.

268
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 4: This is Zach in Atlanta. I said, you mentioned that,

269
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 4: but because you cover the team, you haven't been able

270
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 4: to watch a Cowboys game on TV with your kids.

271
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 4: If you could choose one game to watch with your

272
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 4: kids from the past twenty five years, which one would

273
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 4: it be? Wow, that's making me think here, Zach, I

274
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 4: wasn't prepared for that one. Oh man, Well, it wouldn't

275
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:33,839
Speaker 4: be one of the ones that would make them cry.

276
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 4: Wouldn't be that It would be a fun game. I

277
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:44,679
Speaker 4: you know, I think I'm just randomly throwing one out. Pittsburgh.

278
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:49,680
Speaker 4: Pittsburgh in twenty sixteen, What a fun game. That was

279
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:52,199
Speaker 4: a lot of big plays in the game. Early on,

280
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 4: Zeke with a long touchdown and then Dez caught a

281
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,960
Speaker 4: long touchdown pass and then looked like they were gonna win,

282
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 4: and they scored, but then the Steelers came back, and

283
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,839
Speaker 4: then they scored, and then the Cowboys had chances, they

284
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 4: had a chance to come back, and Zeke goes and

285
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,600
Speaker 4: I mean it was just like a you know, tennis match,

286
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 4: really is what it was watching if you're at center

287
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 4: court there. That was a fun game, hard fought game,

288
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 4: and just a lot of playmakers making plays. That's one

289
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 4: that you know that, I mean, what would what's not

290
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 4: to like about a game like that other than your

291
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 4: heart rate going up and stuff like that. But as

292
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 4: a kid, it'd be cool to explain the game and

293
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 4: and do all that, But it's you know, that's that's

294
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 4: just something that's a I mean, no one's feeling sorry

295
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:35,880
Speaker 4: for me on that. I haven't missed the game since

296
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 4: two thousand and I'm pretty proud of that, and and

297
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 4: and I love it. But but yeah, there is a

298
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 4: sacrifice there. But you know what, they still watch the

299
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 4: game though their mom has the game on for them.

300
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 4: They still get to watch the football game, so that

301
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 4: that's a good thing as well. All right, let's go

302
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 4: to Eric in North Carolina.

303
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 10: What's going on. I'm a.

304
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 2: So I also locked her out about I'm currently in Florida.

305
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 2: All Right, I'm a great guy. I'm a great guy.

306
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 2: I'm gonna be real quick nick, first of all, but I

307
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:11,240
Speaker 2: hope to go well immortalizing everything, no doubt. I am

308
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 2: just have a quick question. I'm just I'm gonna talk

309
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 2: about the defense real quick. The defense looks faster and

310
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:20,760
Speaker 2: looks more Third, I like the way he's disguised in

311
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 2: the coverage, and she's show us some things to do

312
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 2: other things, and I and I and I read a

313
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,280
Speaker 2: couple of articles where that kind of struggled with that,

314
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 2: and it's always to me if I would getting back

315
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 2: to the hill and to snap recognizing what's being played,

316
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 2: you know, to those disguised coverages are making the right read.

317
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 2: Do you think that's gonna translate it even better quarterback?

318
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 2: And from that, for the fact he has to play

319
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 2: against the deepings in the day and the struggles that

320
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,160
Speaker 2: they pick up poles on offense, do you do think

321
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 2: that they back a better quarterback than at all or

322
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 2: if you know it's nothing to really look at that.

323
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 2: That's pretty much my question because I really feel like this.

324
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:56,840
Speaker 10: Is gonna make back even better.

325
00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 2: Plenty off depense every day and I'm gonna get out

326
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 2: you guys with cobalist life.

327
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:05,000
Speaker 4: All right, thank you. Eric said he was from Florida,

328
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 4: sounded a lot farther away than that. Had a hard

329
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 4: time with answering hearing some of that question. I know

330
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 4: it is about Dak pre snap processing. Uh, is that

331
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 4: one thing that will make him a better quarterback? I

332
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 4: mean that that's yes, I mean that's that's what you

333
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 4: have to do. I mean you get a little bit older.

334
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 4: I mean there's there's different levels to your progression. You know,

335
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 4: can you can you throw the ball when you know,

336
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 4: coming out of college and you can make all the

337
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 4: throws great, But if you're not, you had to develop

338
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,320
Speaker 4: that kind of stuff and I think reading defenses, reading coverages,

339
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,200
Speaker 4: seeing you know, trusting yourself and what kind of throws

340
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 4: worked for you. That's always a process.

341
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 8: I mean that.

342
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 4: I mean even even Romo said it ten ten years

343
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,880
Speaker 4: into his career, he was still learning how to do

344
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 4: certain things and and got to a point where he could,

345
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 4: you know, where he understood how to how to make

346
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 4: certain throws. So that that process of what will never

347
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 4: change that that you know, evolving as a quarterback as

348
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 4: a player is something they all need to do. And

349
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:08,160
Speaker 4: I get it. You can easily say, wait, wait time out.

350
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 4: We're paying this guy sixty million a year. There should

351
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:13,399
Speaker 4: be no more evolving, There should be no more you know,

352
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 4: in anything, there should be nothing else that you should

353
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,080
Speaker 4: be the perfect player. But that's just not reality. That's

354
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,720
Speaker 4: not what it is. Remember, these contracts are paying players

355
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 4: for what you expect to happen and what you are

356
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,639
Speaker 4: going to get, not for what you've done. And so

357
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 4: that's what the Remember that that's what the Cowboys are

358
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 4: paying for. They're paying for a player of what they

359
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:35,119
Speaker 4: what they expect to happen here for the next uh,

360
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 4: for this year and four more, and the money says

361
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,359
Speaker 4: they expect them to be an elite quarterback. And I

362
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,399
Speaker 4: think that there are some things Dak still needs to

363
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 4: work on, of course, but they at the end of

364
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 4: the day, do they feel like he's the guy that

365
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:50,479
Speaker 4: can get them where they want to go? And they

366
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 4: certainly believe that. All right, let's go to al he's

367
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 4: in Merkele, Texas.

368
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 8: Hey think, how's it going good?

369
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:57,720
Speaker 4: What's up out?

370
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 8: Hey? I'm just glad they got Dak signed because I

371
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:03,240
Speaker 8: was just so nervous that we were going to go

372
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 8: through those years of signing baseball players and wan reason

373
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 8: has been so I'm just glad, you know, I think

374
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 8: back at the moment gives us the best opportunity to

375
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:14,560
Speaker 8: get where we need to go, like you just said.

376
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:17,440
Speaker 8: And then the other thing, I just got some quick

377
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 8: little altivations I've made. I think in the first series,

378
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 8: I think I saw that getting hit harder than he's

379
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:26,920
Speaker 8: been hitting a while. And if you look, it was

380
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 8: Zach Martin's guy that came up right in the middle

381
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,479
Speaker 8: of nailed him in the face last year. And then

382
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:33,720
Speaker 8: the second one was it's kind of funny if you'll

383
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:35,440
Speaker 8: go back and look at it. When Turpin scored on

384
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 8: that hint of return, he points to the guy to

385
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 8: get the kicker, and both twenty four and forty two

386
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 8: both with on him on the kicker. But the kicker,

387
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 8: I guess he was frozen in and thought he was

388
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 8: gonna get nailed. He didn't even move, But both twenty

389
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 8: four and forty two whif thought him And I don't

390
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,040
Speaker 8: think it was funny because Turpin saw two four or

391
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 8: four to two or four to two and two four,

392
00:18:57,920 --> 00:18:59,439
Speaker 8: you know, go right in front of him and miss

393
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:01,200
Speaker 8: those Uh that block.

394
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 4: Well, you know what two and four added up to,

395
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 4: and that's what he got, and that's what he got.

396
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:11,200
Speaker 4: That's what he got, you know. And I give credit

397
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 4: give credit to Turpin on that play because the way

398
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 4: he kind of I love the way he kind of

399
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 4: set it up just with the fake to go back

400
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:20,399
Speaker 4: inside and then score. You know, that's kind of been

401
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,160
Speaker 4: an issue with him just finishing those plays and getting

402
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,440
Speaker 4: close to the touchdown. I thought he did a great

403
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 4: job of kind of setting that play up. And it's

404
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 4: tough for those guys to know exactly where to block

405
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 4: and who, you know, especially in the open field of

406
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:34,320
Speaker 4: what Turpin's doing behind him, but he he had those

407
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:36,200
Speaker 4: quick moves and got in there. It was it was

408
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,640
Speaker 4: really good to see him get get a touchdown.

409
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 8: Hey, I'm glad you all are back. I'm glad the

410
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 8: season started and I'm looking forward to hearing your insight

411
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:46,680
Speaker 8: and some of the people that call in and just

412
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:48,880
Speaker 8: just very excited. It's a good time of the year.

413
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, thank you for calling. I appreciate that. Uh

414
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:58,440
Speaker 4: And and he mentioned earlier about Zach Martin, you know

415
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:01,480
Speaker 4: that that play, Yeah, it was it was a little

416
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:03,840
Speaker 4: surprising that it was Zach that that gave that up

417
00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:07,920
Speaker 4: a little longer than you you would usually want to

418
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:09,879
Speaker 4: block there. I mean, I think Dak was staying in

419
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,000
Speaker 4: the pocket for a little bit, but with Zach Martin,

420
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:14,680
Speaker 4: you kind of expect that he could block, you know,

421
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 4: for for six days in a row if you needed to.

422
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 4: And so yeah, and Tomlinson kind of got got free

423
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:24,159
Speaker 4: and delivered a huge hit on Deck, but he was

424
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 4: able to get up. And that was about the only

425
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:30,159
Speaker 4: negative thing that really happened for the offense in in

426
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 4: that first half. All Right, we're gonna take a break

427

00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 12: just kind of makes me nauseous. So he looks so

464
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 12: much better with the.

465
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 4: Star on his helmet, Yeah, for sure. And uh he

466
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,200
Speaker 4: you know, he would have fit in with that defense,

467
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,840
Speaker 4: the way that they run around and make plays, and

468
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 4: how scary would that have been with Fred Warner and Kendricks,

469
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:57,119
Speaker 4: you know, they're in the middle, but he he plays

470
00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,680
Speaker 4: with the type of football that that we've seen the

471
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 4: Cowboys go up against, especially with the forty nine ers,

472
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 4: So I could see where that would be an issue.

473
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 4: I mean, there would be a scenario that he would

474
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:12,399
Speaker 4: want to go to. But you know, reuniting with with

475
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,680
Speaker 4: Mike Zimmer, he's not making a lot of money either.

476
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,400
Speaker 4: I think it's like three million or something per year,

477
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 4: but a chance to kind of prove himself. And you know,

478
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,920
Speaker 4: I really love every time I've got a chance to

479
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,639
Speaker 4: talk to him or listen to him, just he just

480
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 4: seems like he's just so level headed. Yeah, he understands,

481
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:33,800
Speaker 4: you know, what he's trying to do, understands the defense

482
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 4: really well, and you know, he's kind of the new guy,

483
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,480
Speaker 4: but he's also the old guy that knows the defense,

484
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 4: and so he's the leader on one hand, but he

485
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,720
Speaker 4: doesn't come in and try to overtake the locker room.

486
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 4: He still kind of understands and that that's always a

487
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,119
Speaker 4: little different. It's a little unique for a veteran like

488
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:53,600
Speaker 4: that that comes in a lot of players that have

489
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 4: been here are asking him questions because he knows this defense.

490
00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 4: But in terms of the being the captain or being

491
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,959
Speaker 4: a leader and leading the locker room, you also kind

492
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 4: of understand your role and your place and knowing that

493
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:11,119
Speaker 4: there are guys like Micah and Tank and Jordan Lewis

494
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 4: that have been here for a long time, then Trayvon

495
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 4: Diggs and those guys like that. So I love the

496
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 4: way he has that balance and so far, so good.

497
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:23,239
Speaker 4: First game was amazing for Eric Kendricks for sure. All Right,

498
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 4: let's go to next caller is Maurice. He's in Tacoma, Washington. Maurice,

499
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:30,560
Speaker 4: Good morning, Nick, how are you.

500
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:35,120
Speaker 5: I'm doing great, but he especially great after the victory. Yeah,

501
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 5: So my call is about this the contract with Dak.

502
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,879
Speaker 5: I'm so happy we were able to get that sealed

503
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,359
Speaker 5: up and done with. And I kind of feel like

504
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,200
Speaker 5: Jerry is such a massive mind. They already had this

505
00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:50,399
Speaker 5: thing in order bar before the weekend started, and I

506
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,200
Speaker 5: feel like he threw that in there an hour before

507
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:55,440
Speaker 5: the game to use him in like a gageman shit

508
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,400
Speaker 5: type of way to play with Watson's head. I think

509
00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,159
Speaker 5: it worked to perfection. Wondering what you thought about that.

510
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:02,919
Speaker 5: Do you think that maybe that was a little bit

511
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 5: of gamesmanship on the part of Jerry Joes, I hang

512
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:07,160
Speaker 5: up a listen, take aim a call, all right.

513
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:12,960
Speaker 4: Thank you, Maurice. Excellent thought. I don't agree with it

514
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,919
Speaker 4: at all. I really don't. I don't think that getting

515
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:21,440
Speaker 4: into Deshaun Watson's head has any factor in that contract.

516
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 4: I think they wanted to get the deal done and

517
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 4: they almost got it down Saturday night, it didn't really

518
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 4: and then it carried over into Sunday. Dak made it

519
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:35,159
Speaker 4: very clear he wanted to get the contract done before

520
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,240
Speaker 4: the season started, and if it was going to get

521
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,359
Speaker 4: done at all, let's get it done there. And I

522
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:42,959
Speaker 4: really don't think it had anything to do with Deshaun

523
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 4: Watson and getting in his head and all that that

524
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 4: that that wouldn't seem to be even a factor there.

525
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,160
Speaker 4: When you get paid, you get paid. You you understand.

526
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,159
Speaker 4: These quarterbacks understand. I mean Dak said it. I mean

527
00:25:57,560 --> 00:25:59,639
Speaker 4: he's not going to be the highest paid quarterback for

528
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:04,200
Speaker 4: two I mean he'll he'll be. Everyone just keeps jumping

529
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 4: each other. That's that's the way that it works. And

530
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:10,639
Speaker 4: so you know these quarterbacks they kind of stick together

531
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 4: because they understand that you get paid like that, then

532
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 4: the next guy's coming in, the next guy's coming in.

533
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 4: There's a lot of people in the league. I mean

534
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:22,200
Speaker 4: most people don't believe Dak Prescott is the best quarterback

535
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,399
Speaker 4: in the NFL. I mean most people do not believe that.

536
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 4: So we all know this that that the next contract

537
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 4: will be higher than that when it's when it's time.

538
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 4: I mean Dak hasn't hasn't gone to the NFC championship game.

539
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 4: It's been well documented. He hasn't gone to the Super Bowl.

540
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:39,359
Speaker 4: Of course, So the players that have that are making less.

541
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,119
Speaker 4: I mean, they got their hand up. You know, I

542
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 4: don't know if are they in the back like just

543
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 4: saying hello, or are they say what you know, wham

544
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,919
Speaker 4: what about me? Either way that's going to happen Deshaun

545
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 4: got his. That probably helped Dak get his. I don't

546
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 4: think I had anything to do with let's do it

547
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 4: right now and that really mess him up. Uh he

548
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 4: had a lot of problems, He had a lot of

549
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:02,160
Speaker 4: problems in the game. I don't think he had anything

550
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:06,080
Speaker 4: to do with that, So don't I don't always disagree.

551
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,320
Speaker 4: I mean that's I mean, that's your your opinion and

552
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:10,359
Speaker 4: if you if you're going to stick by that's fine.

553
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 4: I don't. I think that was a little too deeper

554
00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:15,159
Speaker 4: than that. I don't think it had anything to do

555
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:17,919
Speaker 4: with Deshaun Watson or that they just wanted to get

556
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,119
Speaker 4: the deal done and the season was was almost started.

557
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:22,440
Speaker 4: They want to get done, all right. Next caller is

558
00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:23,680
Speaker 4: Rick in Massachusetts.

559
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:26,880
Speaker 13: Hey, Nick, how you doing good?

560
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,359
Speaker 4: What's going on now?

561
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:30,439
Speaker 5: Just working?

562
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 13: Got quest for it?

563
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:32,639
Speaker 5: Uh?

564
00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:36,159
Speaker 13: I know when Doron Blank comes back and you have

565
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,920
Speaker 13: Kaylyn Carson playing well and Jordan Lewis and uh ty

566
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,159
Speaker 13: who sits on the bench, it's going to be Kayln

567
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:46,200
Speaker 13: Carson to take back over Deron blasting or do you

568
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:49,440
Speaker 13: think you will sit Jordan Lewis. I think they would

569
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:54,400
Speaker 13: be Kaylyn Carson. But what's your feelings? And uh, let's

570
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,320
Speaker 13: you know, get off and thank you.

571
00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:00,520
Speaker 4: All right, what a good problem to have. Thanks a call, Rick,

572
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:02,879
Speaker 4: good good problem to have. I knew it was gonna

573
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,240
Speaker 4: happen too, you know at some point when you're like,

574
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:06,600
Speaker 4: what happens now?

575
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:06,920
Speaker 1: You know?

576
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 4: I The good thing is this is not quarterback okay,

577
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 4: where it's like you play one. This is corner you

578
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,240
Speaker 4: can play. You can have that. You can have a

579
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,360
Speaker 4: lot of different packages out there. They're they're they're going

580
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 4: to play. I think with the injury that you had

581
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,200
Speaker 4: with Deron Bland, I mean Jerry Jones was asked that

582
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:30,960
Speaker 4: on Tuesday on his radio show. He was asked that

583
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:36,399
Speaker 4: question about what happens when you know, when when does

584
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,280
Speaker 4: Bland come back and all that, and he didn't give

585
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 4: it a definitive answer because it's just going to depend

586
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,400
Speaker 4: on his rehab. But he also said, you know, we'll

587
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 4: see how Kalen Carson is playing. I don't think what

588
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 4: he meant was if Carson's playing well, Bland doesn't get

589
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 4: a job back. He says, I think it'll it'll depend

590
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:56,240
Speaker 4: on when he comes back. And you know they're not

591
00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 4: going to rush him back, but he'll come back when

592
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:01,120
Speaker 4: he's ready. But you know, it might be a situation

593
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:04,720
Speaker 4: where like one more week would be better. Carson's playing, Well,

594
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 4: let's do that. Maybe the bye week is involved there.

595
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:11,719
Speaker 4: But I think that with four corners, they all can

596
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 4: can play. They can they can have packages where they're

597
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 4: out there doing some good things. I would imagine Bland

598
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 4: comes back but and starts in opposite of digs. But

599
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 4: you know, Carson is gonna You're gonna be able to

600
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 4: play him. And I remember Mike Zimmer. I remember exactly

601
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:29,920
Speaker 4: where I was at Valley Ranch, on this track right

602
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 4: by this hill, where after a mini camp in the

603
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 4: summer probably of two thousand and four three maybe where

604
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:42,479
Speaker 4: Mike Zimmer said, you can never ever ever have too

605
00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 4: many corners. I remember him saying it, and he was

606
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 4: the defensive coordinator or defensive backs coach or probably defensive coordinator.

607
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:53,200
Speaker 4: And he's right, he can't, he can't have too many corners.

608
00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 4: And so they don't have too many right now. It's

609
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 4: a good it's a good problem to have. All right,

610
00:29:58,120 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 4: let's go to David and fort Worth.

611
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 14: Hey, how are you doing, sir, good good brother, good brother.

612
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 13: Hey.

613
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 14: I just wanted to touch on what Randy caught about

614
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:08,120
Speaker 14: earlier about the running game, and I just want to

615
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 14: remind everybody. You know, I called before week one and

616
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 14: basically just said, like, Hey, it's going to take some

617
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 14: time for this offensive line to jail together. You know,

618
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 14: they're at unit things. You're just going to get better.

619
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:18,840
Speaker 14: So I just want to encourage him and anybody else

620
00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 14: who might be worried about it that things are going

621
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 14: to get better. I'm very very optimistic about that. I

622
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 14: did want to mention that I'm excited that a lot

623
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 14: of the defensive players after the game mentioned that, you know,

624
00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 14: they didn't even show the whole playbook. They only I

625
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,160
Speaker 14: think Dig said like we ran like three different plays

626
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 14: and that's it, which is super exciting. And the last

627
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 14: thing is a lot of people I feel like are

628
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:38,880
Speaker 14: overlooking the Saints just because I'm not really sure why.

629
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 14: I do feel like the Dallas Cowboys are a better team.

630
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,600
Speaker 14: But any NFL team that hangs forty seven, I think

631
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 14: it was on another team. I mean, that's that's something

632
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,160
Speaker 14: that's something that you don't just you know, Scoff that

633
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,480
Speaker 14: you know, it's pretty impressive. So I'm excited about this week.

634
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:54,200
Speaker 10: Nick, I'll be quick. I appreciate you man enough.

635
00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:57,760
Speaker 4: Well, thank you for the call. I mean, of course,

636
00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:00,800
Speaker 4: and the Saints they look they look good. I mean

637
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 4: it's not just forty seven. It's the ten and forty

638
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 4: seven on one end and giving up ten on the other.

639
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:11,440
Speaker 4: And you know, Carolina is is Carolina. I mean, they're

640
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:17,080
Speaker 4: they're they're definitely struggling. You know, they struggled last year. Uh,

641
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 4: and they don't look to be in after one game.

642
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:21,640
Speaker 4: They don't look to be uh you know, that much

643
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,520
Speaker 4: that much better. So it's again, it's it's early. And

644
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 4: you know the funny you say that about the Cowboys

645
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 4: only ran three players. So that's what Dig said. I mean,

646
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 4: that can't make you feel good if you're Deshaun Watson,

647
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:36,360
Speaker 4: just that you know, they were pretty bland out there

648
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:38,800
Speaker 4: in their coverage and still looked like, you know, he

649
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:42,120
Speaker 4: was trying to, you know, solve the quadratic formula or

650
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,719
Speaker 4: something like that. He couldn't figure it out, uh at all.

651
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 4: So but hey, you said that about the Saints, remember

652
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 4: this part too. They don't they don't play here a lot.

653
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 4: I mean, I know they're in the NFC, but they

654
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:54,560
Speaker 4: they don't. They don't come here a lot it seems

655
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:57,960
Speaker 4: like the way the rotation has been, you will hear

656
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 4: their fans. Their fans will be here. It's not it's

657
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:02,560
Speaker 4: not a far trip. There's a lot of Saints fans

658
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 4: are very loyal, uh, And there's a lot of Saints

659
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:08,000
Speaker 4: fans that are still in Dallas, you know, after a

660
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:10,600
Speaker 4: Hurricane Katrina, and there's a lot of fans in this

661
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 4: area that are big Saints fans. They will be at

662
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,000
Speaker 4: the game. They will be loud, they will be you know,

663
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:18,880
Speaker 4: they'll stand out. You'll you'll see the gold and the black.

664
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 4: They'll they'll be there. And so it'll it'll be a

665
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 4: game that you know, it'll be a good crowd, it'll

666
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:26,800
Speaker 4: be intense, and you know, I'm sure that they're very

667
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:30,120
Speaker 4: excited about their team right now. So I wouldn't overlook

668
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 4: them at all. I think the Cowboys should win the game.

669
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:34,920
Speaker 4: But but you know, we've seen it before where they

670
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,720
Speaker 4: don't come out and play well, and they don't you know,

671
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,360
Speaker 4: they turn the ball over. Anything can happen, for sure.

672
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 4: All Right, we're gonna take another break here on Cowboys

695
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,960
Speaker 4: got a time for some more questions. We're gonna go

696
00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:23,600
Speaker 4: with Michael and Bowling Green, Kentucky. Michael, what's up?

697
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:25,279
Speaker 3: What's going on?

698
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:27,600
Speaker 7: Hey? I just got a quick question.

699
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,600
Speaker 15: I know how fascy NFL is, so I already haven't

700
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 15: looked towards the Saints game. What are the big things

701
00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 15: that we're gonna have to contend with from these Saints?

702
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,399
Speaker 4: Well, I mean you have to, uh, I mean, their

703
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:46,560
Speaker 4: defense has always been very aggressive with Dennis Allen's he's

704
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 4: an aggressive coach and that he likes to blitz a lot.

705
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,839
Speaker 4: So I mean, we it'll be I'm not gonna say

706
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:54,800
Speaker 4: it similar to to the Browns, but it'll be a

707
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,800
Speaker 4: very very aggressive defense. It's it's kind of it always

708
00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:00,800
Speaker 4: reminds me a little bit of going up against Mike's defenses,

709
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 4: So you'll you'll have to do that. And then you know,

710
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:07,279
Speaker 4: they just do unique things, you know, I mean, whether

711
00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:11,319
Speaker 4: it's you know, Taysom Hill or you know whatever. I mean,

712
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,400
Speaker 4: he didn't have a huge game there, but but they

713
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 4: they're kind of unorthodox and the way they do things

714
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:21,800
Speaker 4: on offense, and you know, it's still early in the season. Remember,

715
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:27,239
Speaker 4: both teams had comfortable wins, and so early on in

716
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:29,759
Speaker 4: the game, I mean, it was very clear that the

717
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:31,719
Speaker 4: Saints were going to win, and it was very clear

718
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:33,759
Speaker 4: that the Cowboys were going to win. So at that point,

719
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 4: you're done showing stuff. You're done showing your unique plays

720
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,320
Speaker 4: and things like that. So my point is is you

721
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:44,200
Speaker 4: still don't know exactly everything you're gonna see from the Saints,

722
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,120
Speaker 4: and they don't know everything that the Cowboys have from

723
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:48,879
Speaker 4: their offense stuff as well. So I would still call

724
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,520
Speaker 4: it early in the year. Yes, there's one game under

725
00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:54,360
Speaker 4: the belt for both teams, but probably more of a

726
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:57,360
Speaker 4: half because in the second half I think it turned

727
00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 4: very vanilla for both teams, and so that's it's that's

728
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,920
Speaker 4: why I would say McArthur uses the term unscouted looks.

729
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 4: We're still at that at that area unscouted looks right now,

730
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:10,200
Speaker 4: So still a little bit early to tell. But now

731
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 4: I would imagine it's gonna be a fun game, fun crowd,

732
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,840
Speaker 4: like I mentioned before, and we'll see how how the

733
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:17,759
Speaker 4: Cowboys handle it and how the same handled it will

734
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:21,040
Speaker 4: be their biggest challenge of the season by far all right,

735
00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 4: phone lines are open eighty eight eight five five two

736
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:26,560
Speaker 4: two nine seven. I'm gonna get a text message. Question

737
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:29,799
Speaker 4: We've got from Allen. He's in Clearwater, Florida. He wants

738
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:32,760
Speaker 4: to talk about Mazzie Smith says on the stat sheet

739
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,319
Speaker 4: he didn't even make an appearance with zero tackles. Can

740
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,600
Speaker 4: you tell me what you saw from Mozzie on Sunday?

741
00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:40,439
Speaker 4: Is there a reason to be optimistic or the same

742
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 4: thing with him at last year getting washed out? No,

743
00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:47,720
Speaker 4: remember the position that you play. You know, Aaron Donald

744
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:49,960
Speaker 4: kind of messed it up for everybody for the defensive

745
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,800
Speaker 4: tackles because Aaron Donald would make a lot of sacks

746
00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 4: and stats and show up. He was absolutely dominant. That's

747
00:36:56,960 --> 00:37:00,239
Speaker 4: why he was three times Defensive Player of the Year

748
00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:05,480
Speaker 4: and first ballot Hall of Famer for sure. But usually

749
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,960
Speaker 4: at the defensive tackle position, you don't have a ton

750
00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:11,719
Speaker 4: of stats. That's not really your goal, especially when you

751
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:15,680
Speaker 4: have the rushers on the outside. Your your job is

752
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:20,279
Speaker 4: to is to fill the gaps, fill the lanes and

753
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:23,240
Speaker 4: don't get knocked off the ball and don't get blown

754
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 4: blown away for you know, a huge gap for a

755
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:28,600
Speaker 4: big run. That's why they added these these big guys

756
00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 4: in the middle. It's a combination. Jordan Phillips involved Joseph Osa.

757
00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:35,399
Speaker 4: Now Osa I thought was very good in the game.

758
00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:37,560
Speaker 4: He was by far the best defensive tackle and one

759
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:40,759
Speaker 4: of the best players on defense. But you know that's

760
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:43,000
Speaker 4: his job getting up the field. Guys like Mazzi though,

761
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:46,200
Speaker 4: hold your ground. You're not going to get a lot

762
00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:48,719
Speaker 4: of stats. That's just not the way it's going to be.

763
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:52,080
Speaker 4: But if they start running the football and they running

764
00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:54,800
Speaker 4: it right at them, then that's that's something that you

765
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:57,080
Speaker 4: needed to look at. The Browns were not running the ball.

766
00:37:57,239 --> 00:38:00,600
Speaker 4: Those defensive tackles held their owns and allowed Kendrick to

767
00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:02,319
Speaker 4: go up and make plays. They all did it. They

768
00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:04,640
Speaker 4: all did a good job. So that's that's the goal.

769
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:06,719
Speaker 4: I mean, you can't look at a first round pick

770
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,799
Speaker 4: and just say, why aren't you getting four or five sacks?

771
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,000
Speaker 4: If you're looking at sacks for a guy like Mazzie Smith,

772
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,680
Speaker 4: you're not looking at it correctly. In my opinion. You

773
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,600
Speaker 4: need to make sure that the running game, the run

774
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,480
Speaker 4: defense is sound, and he's a big, big part of that,

775
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:23,800
Speaker 4: and one game it definitely was sound. So that I

776
00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:26,319
Speaker 4: would say, look at them and they did a nice job.

777
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 4: All right. Another text question here. This is Jonathan. He's

778
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 4: from Portinanchez, Texas. Say he's feeling much better about the

779
00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:36,840
Speaker 4: run defense after seeing our linebackers against Cleveland. Overshown's closing

780
00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:39,000
Speaker 4: speed on Watson was incredible to see. How are you

781
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:41,359
Speaker 4: feeling about the run defense after one game? Thanks? Loved

782
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:46,120
Speaker 4: the show. Thank you for the text message. I believe that,

783
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:49,239
Speaker 4: you know, when I look at the way he runs,

784
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:53,239
Speaker 4: the look at the way that Overshown, you know, chase

785
00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:55,480
Speaker 4: down Watson. I mean, that's just what you got. It

786
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 4: wasn't just that play. There were several plays there on

787
00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 4: the sideline where you just saw that the speed you

788
00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:05,800
Speaker 4: saw him seeing it, you know, processing being alert and

789
00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:08,360
Speaker 4: then going and attacking the ball and getting there and

790
00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:10,920
Speaker 4: cutting off angles. I mean, that's that's a huge play

791
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:13,080
Speaker 4: when you think about a guy going on the sideline there,

792
00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 4: he's trying to get around the corner. Here comes over

793
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:18,120
Speaker 4: shown it's it's second and ten. He thinks he's gonna

794
00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:20,120
Speaker 4: get there and he knocks him out of bounds four

795
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:23,759
Speaker 4: yard short, third and four, as opposed to just not

796
00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 4: making that angle and maybe it's the first down. Maybe

797
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 4: it's third and one completely different play. Angles matter. You know,

798
00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 4: getting to the ball obviously matters, and I just love

799
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:35,800
Speaker 4: the way and not only when you get there, but

800
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:40,520
Speaker 4: you know, bring the wood. And that's what Overshown certainly does.

801
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 4: Just love his attitude, love the way he plays, and

802
00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:45,120
Speaker 4: you know, quite a skept I mean, Marius Leafal is

803
00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:49,399
Speaker 4: the same type of player. Not as tall and rangey maybe,

804
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:51,680
Speaker 4: but still the same type of guy that wants to

805
00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 4: go up there and just hit. And that's that's exciting

806
00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:57,440
Speaker 4: to see too. So you can't we can't stress enough

807
00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 4: just how different the linebackers on this defense. And that's

808
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 4: that's something right off the bat when when Zimmer was hired,

809
00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:08,239
Speaker 4: that was something that we all talked about, was let's

810
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:11,120
Speaker 4: see how different the linebackers are. After one game. It's

811
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:16,080
Speaker 4: been it's been amazing. All right. Lester in Minnesota is next, Lester?

812
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:16,920
Speaker 4: What's up?

813
00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:18,799
Speaker 13: Hey?

814
00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 16: How you doing out there?

815
00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:20,319
Speaker 3: Nick?

816
00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:22,240
Speaker 4: How are you? First time caller?

817
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:25,360
Speaker 16: Yeah? First time call alone?

818
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:29,279
Speaker 4: Here we go, Here we go, Lester, what's on your mind?

819
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:33,000
Speaker 16: They called me cowboys since seventy seven. That's when I

820
00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:35,879
Speaker 16: started being a Cowboys sorin I was a little bitty

821
00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:38,799
Speaker 16: boy and grew up in Chicago. All Right, all right,

822
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:44,799
Speaker 16: I just got one thing to say everybody who's saying

823
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:47,520
Speaker 16: everything about well we should do this, we should do that.

824
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:55,000
Speaker 16: I'm just gonna quote my favorite, my favorite quote from

825
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:57,840
Speaker 16: a from Jim Plunkett. I believe he said this in

826
00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:01,880
Speaker 16: nineteen eighty three or so. Long time go anyway. Uh,

827
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:07,120
Speaker 16: the reporter after the game was asking him a question, Hey, Jim,

828
00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:11,160
Speaker 16: can you can you tell us you guys have five

829
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:15,000
Speaker 16: turnover on paraphrase? You guys have five turnovers almost six.

830
00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:18,120
Speaker 16: You almost lost the fumble, you had one fumble you lost,

831
00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 16: you threw four interceptions. Can you explain that? And then

832
00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 16: Jim Plunker said, did we win the game? He said yeah,

833
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:31,040
Speaker 16: he said, that's all that matters. All right, So that's

834
00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:33,479
Speaker 16: all I'm gonna say. See, the Cowboy fans don't worry

835
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:35,759
Speaker 16: about all that. So long as we win, we're good.

836
00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:39,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm out, all right, all right, Well, I mean

837
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:43,640
Speaker 4: that's that's good. I understand. I understand that you're you're

838
00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:46,400
Speaker 4: right as long as you win the game. But but

839
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:49,560
Speaker 4: you also, you know, you have to know that you've

840
00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:51,239
Speaker 4: got to be, you know, good with the ball, and

841
00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:54,160
Speaker 4: you've you've got you've got to still clean up some

842
00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:57,200
Speaker 4: things because you know it's going to be better. You know,

843
00:41:57,280 --> 00:42:01,360
Speaker 4: you're going to face quarterbacks that that complete passes and

844
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:04,759
Speaker 4: so that's and you're gonna face one this week. So

845
00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:07,759
Speaker 4: you've got to be you got to be sound in that.

846
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:09,759
Speaker 4: You've got to be, you know, better than than than

847
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:12,120
Speaker 4: what you were there. You you've got to run the

848
00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:14,759
Speaker 4: football better than you have because there's gonna be games

849
00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:16,920
Speaker 4: where field goals aren't aren't gonna win. That was one

850
00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:18,800
Speaker 4: where field goals are going to win. Last night. You

851
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:20,960
Speaker 4: look at you know, look at the game that the

852
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:25,000
Speaker 4: forty nine ers had on Monday night against against the Jets.

853
00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:27,080
Speaker 4: Look at the way they they played. I mean, it

854
00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:30,240
Speaker 4: got it was apparent that they were better than the Jets,

855
00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:32,680
Speaker 4: and so there was times where they could have maybe

856
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:36,040
Speaker 4: gone forward. But just keep getting points, just keep kicking

857
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:39,640
Speaker 4: field goals and winning the game and you know, helping

858
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:41,840
Speaker 4: me win my fantasy game and all that's good, but

859
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:45,680
Speaker 4: you know, but just get points. And that's that's where

860
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:47,880
Speaker 4: there are games like that. But it's not always going

861
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:51,280
Speaker 4: to be that way. Let's go to Robbie and Ko Kobets, Florida, Robbie,

862
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:55,040
Speaker 4: what's up, good man? What's up with you?

863
00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:58,439
Speaker 6: Not that I got one question. I rewatched the game.

864
00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:03,359
Speaker 6: I've got two questions. Firstly, you think I'm running back

865
00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:05,600
Speaker 6: still out on the street or on different teams someplace

866
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:07,960
Speaker 6: now leading rusher for the year. You don't think so?

867
00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:10,520
Speaker 4: No, I don't. I don't believe so now. I mean,

868
00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:12,560
Speaker 4: I don't. I don't know who.

869
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 2: I mean.

870
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,320
Speaker 6: Like I said yesterday, I mean, I'm happy of the

871
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:17,879
Speaker 6: offensive line. Man, if they keep playing like that, gelling better.

872
00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:20,120
Speaker 6: I see this rushing for a lot of guards, and

873
00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:22,000
Speaker 6: I guess I don't really care who's back there.

874
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:26,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, they could make a trade with somebody,

875
00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:30,359
Speaker 4: a starting running back that's maybe in the last year

876
00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 4: of the contract or something like that. I could see

877
00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:35,200
Speaker 4: maybe that happening. But you know, when you already won

878
00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:40,160
Speaker 4: game in I let let's just see. I mean, right now,

879
00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:43,120
Speaker 4: I'm I'm okay with with with what it was in

880
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,799
Speaker 4: the running game. Let's let's see. I mean, after one game,

881
00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:48,000
Speaker 4: in a game like that, they got out of hand

882
00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:50,880
Speaker 4: and you know, the Browns are playing with pride in

883
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:53,040
Speaker 4: the second half and trying to, you know, show up

884
00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:55,120
Speaker 4: the run, and they're not they're not going deep. They're

885
00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:59,080
Speaker 4: playing very very conservative. They're gonna run the Browns know

886
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:02,040
Speaker 4: what I'm I can't really tell much from that game.

887
00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:05,200
Speaker 4: I mean, the first half the running game looked okay

888
00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:07,960
Speaker 4: to me, and that's really when it was a game.

889
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 4: So I've only really seen a half. Let's let's see

890
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,799
Speaker 4: in one more game against the Saints that that aren't

891
00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:17,080
Speaker 4: you know that they're not the number one defense in

892
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:19,200
Speaker 4: in the NFL from the year before. Let's just see

893
00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:21,359
Speaker 4: that and then and then after a game or two.

894
00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:23,440
Speaker 4: I think that that's that's why the trade deadline is

895
00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:25,520
Speaker 4: what it is. You still kind of want to fill

896
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,000
Speaker 4: out your own team and see what you've got.

897
00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:32,080
Speaker 6: Very fair, We've got one more, Yeah, go for it,

898
00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:35,680
Speaker 6: all right, so Romo said. In his football life, he

899
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:37,759
Speaker 6: said he felt in the last couple of years of

900
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:41,560
Speaker 6: his career that he was just starting to understand the game, right,

901
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:43,160
Speaker 6: you think you think that's there.

902
00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:47,960
Speaker 4: I think I think, yeah. Well, I don't know if

903
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:50,360
Speaker 4: he's if he would say the same thing, but I

904
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:54,920
Speaker 4: but I think that was my point earlier, that it's

905
00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:58,280
Speaker 4: you're never too far into your career to keep learning

906
00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:01,600
Speaker 4: and to keep figuring things out and so yeah, I

907
00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:03,960
Speaker 4: think I think Dak is still learning some things. He's

908
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:07,000
Speaker 4: still learning on how to do make certain throws, how

909
00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:09,040
Speaker 4: to I think what Romo was talking about was torquing

910
00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:12,279
Speaker 4: his body in a certain way and throwing a deep ball,

911
00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:14,680
Speaker 4: or you know, our fate or stuff like that. So

912
00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:17,279
Speaker 4: I get what what Tony was saying, and I think

913
00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:19,759
Speaker 4: there's elements of that that Dak certainly would agree with.

914
00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:22,360
Speaker 5: All Right, my friend, that's it.

915
00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:24,120
Speaker 6: Have a great day and we'll talk to you tomorrow.

916
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:26,320
Speaker 6: All right, all right, buddy.

917
00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:28,719
Speaker 4: Thanks Robbie, appreciate that. Let's go one more caller here,

918
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 4: Ronnie in New Jersey. Ronnie, what's up? Ronnie? Are you there?

919
00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:36,439
Speaker 10: Hey, Mick, how are you doing?

920
00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:36,960
Speaker 4: Good man?

921
00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:39,000
Speaker 7: How are you not too bad?

922
00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:39,640
Speaker 16: Not too bad?

923
00:45:40,719 --> 00:45:43,279
Speaker 10: I wanted to ask you a couple of questions. This

924
00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:48,560
Speaker 10: was a fun game, uh, in our point of view, Nick,

925
00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:52,000
Speaker 10: with all these linebackers that we have, I mean, do

926
00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:56,160
Speaker 10: you think maybe we could throw now? They'll starting throwing

927
00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:59,200
Speaker 10: like some three four, start mixing it up, because well

928
00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:03,040
Speaker 10: we have more and and and seems like we have

929
00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:08,240
Speaker 10: great skilled players. I mean, the linebackers are fast, hard hitting.

930
00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:13,239
Speaker 10: I see the defence converting more towards like a three

931
00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:16,640
Speaker 10: four or mixt of both, because of the linebackers that

932
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:19,839
Speaker 10: we have, and and this old line, like the guys

933
00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:22,080
Speaker 10: were saying, I think this old line is only going

934
00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:24,120
Speaker 10: to get better with time. That's only going to make

935
00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:27,919
Speaker 10: the running game better with time, and and and Dak.

936
00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:32,400
Speaker 10: I mean, wow, this was a fun game. But now,

937
00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:34,880
Speaker 10: like I forgot the other guy that he was mentioned,

938
00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:38,279
Speaker 10: I want to see when they play the Niners, when

939
00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:42,359
Speaker 10: they play these the Saints, when I when they play

940
00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:44,600
Speaker 10: complete teams. That's what That's what I would like to

941
00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:45,600
Speaker 10: see what happens.

942
00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:48,759
Speaker 4: Then, yeah, I agree, I mean, thank you Ronnie for

943
00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:51,360
Speaker 4: the call. You know, I I before, let's before they

944
00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:53,359
Speaker 4: start switching to a three four and all that kind

945
00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:55,560
Speaker 4: of exotic stuff. Let's see let's get them to master

946
00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:59,200
Speaker 4: what they're doing right now, I'll say this, let's let's

947
00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:03,160
Speaker 4: let's tap the breaks a little on how great the

948
00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:07,279
Speaker 4: defense looked in that one game, Because you know, I

949
00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:13,160
Speaker 4: think superstars carry teams. I believe that. I think when

950
00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:17,040
Speaker 4: you have an elite player, it makes other guys around

951
00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 4: them better. Deshaun Watson is not an elite quarterback. Amari

952
00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:27,239
Speaker 4: Cooper is a is a really great route runner, and

953
00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:32,280
Speaker 4: he's a really good receiver. I don't know if he's elite.

954
00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:34,040
Speaker 4: I think, you know, I don't think he's one of

955
00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:37,120
Speaker 4: the top ones. I think he can be good, and

956
00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:38,880
Speaker 4: we've seen it. We've seen him be very good with

957
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:41,480
Speaker 4: the Cowboys, but I don't think he is one of

958
00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:44,399
Speaker 4: the game's best. They don't have a great running back

959
00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:46,959
Speaker 4: right now or tied in or even the offensive line,

960
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:50,560
Speaker 4: so they don't have anything that's like it's like that

961
00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:54,120
Speaker 4: person is a difference maker, perennial pro bowler and all that.

962
00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:58,839
Speaker 4: There's gonna be games obviously coming up here soon this week,

963
00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:01,320
Speaker 4: you know, I we'll see I don't know if the Saints.

964
00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 4: You would say that about the Saints either, but definitely

965
00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:06,520
Speaker 4: in the next game with Lamar Jackson their quarterback in

966
00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:10,959
Speaker 4: the MVP. So all I'm saying is is that let's

967
00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:15,360
Speaker 4: see it before they're really tested, before we start changing schemes,

968
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:17,719
Speaker 4: and they can do this, and that they haven't been

969
00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:20,759
Speaker 4: tested as much as they're going to be. And but

970
00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:23,680
Speaker 4: that's why we don't jump ahead here. We let the

971
00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:26,600
Speaker 4: season ride out, and after one game it looked really

972
00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:29,279
Speaker 4: good for the Cowboys. Let's see what happens the next week,

973
00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:33,200
Speaker 4: but we will talk about that and a lot more tomorrow.

974
