1
00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:05,040
Speaker 1: The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com

2
00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.

3
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:09,760
Speaker 2: Cowboys.

4
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:14,720
Speaker 1: This is these Cowboys.

5
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:16,799
Speaker 3: Storylines with Nick Eatman.

6
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:21,239
Speaker 2: What is up?

7
00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 3: It is time for Cowboys storyline. I'm Nick Eatman here

8
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:28,360
Speaker 3: and it is a Wednesday, getting Cowboys ready to go

9
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:32,240
Speaker 3: for the Cowboys Patriots game coming up this week. Turning

10
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:35,760
Speaker 3: the page officially from the last game. Obviously, we can

11
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 3: still talk about whatever you want, but I think it's

12
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,440
Speaker 3: time to make sure that this focus is here for

13
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 3: the for the next game. Ezekiel Elliot's coming to town,

14
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 3: Bill Belichick and the new England Patriots should be a

15
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:55,639
Speaker 3: fun game. Cowboys storyline is always, you know, I let

16
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 3: you guys kind of talk about whatever you want. So

17
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 3: eight eight eight eight five five two two nine seven

18
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:05,560
Speaker 3: the storylines are, you know, can this team turn the

19
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 3: turn this around? Can they bounce back from a game

20
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 3: like that? History shows, you know, recent history shows that

21
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 3: they do. The Cowboys are really good coming coming off

22
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 3: of a loss. I was looking this up last uh

23
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 3: about last season? Five losses?

24
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 2: Last year?

25
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,559
Speaker 3: Uh, the Cowboys came back and won every single game

26
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 3: the next week, and not only that, but they beat

27
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 3: every team that they beat was either a playoff team

28
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 3: or had a winning record. So uh, some of the

29
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 3: best games of the season came back from from losses.

30
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 3: I mean at the Minnesota game, everyone remembers they lost

31
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 3: to Green Bay. The week before, they lost to Jacksonville,

32
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 3: and they came back and beat Philadelphia. Of course, they

33
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,039
Speaker 3: lost the Washington end of the year and beat Tampa Bay,

34
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 3: so they they they have done a pretty good job,

35
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 3: a really good job of bouncing back. Let's see if

36
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 3: they can do that this week. So it's gonna be

37
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 3: a kind of a different show. We'll we'll take as

38
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 3: many calls as we can right now, say, and half

39
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 3: of the show going to be joined by a guest.

40
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:08,519
Speaker 3: So I made a friendly wager over the weekend for

41
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 3: my own college football team, Arkansas and LSU, and did

42
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 3: not get that win. So uh, Danny McCrae will be

43
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 3: coming in and sporting a a some memorabilia for me

44
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 3: to wear. It's kind of a controversy a little bit

45
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 3: because it was supposed to be a jersey and he

46
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,640
Speaker 3: didn't do that, So I don't know. I think that

47
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 3: we're going to talk about it here in the second

48
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 3: half of the show. He'll come in and I have

49
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 3: to wear some god awful purple. But that's okay because

50
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 3: that's what happened.

51
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 2: All Right, We're gonna go.

52
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 3: To the phone lines. We'll start this thing off. Chris

53
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 3: and Mississippi. Chris, what's up?

54
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 4: How you doing?

55
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 2: Mary Mick? I'm good, Chris.

56
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 4: Earlier this week kind of sicken under the weather, but

57
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 4: I'm back better than ever. And I'm just gonna say this, man,

58
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 4: I wanted to call and be positive like I was

59
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 4: last week, But the more that I think about it,

60
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 4: the more that and I just wish that cowboy fans

61
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,920
Speaker 4: would lay the blame where he's supposed.

62
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 2: To be laid.

63
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 5: I mean, come on, now, where is that?

64
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:13,239
Speaker 4: This is professional team, professional coaches. Y'all are getting paid

65
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 4: a bunch of money. There is no sense I've seen

66
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,080
Speaker 4: pee wee teams more ready to play a game than that.

67
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 4: The coaches cannot blame anybody but theirselves. There's no way

68
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 4: you knew all week you didn't have Zach Martin. You

69
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 4: had a really good choice. You know what was it

70
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 4: Wednesday when we be Oddish went down? You had a

71
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 4: really good idea that you may not have be Oddish.

72
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 4: And you always need to have somebody ready for the

73
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 4: left tackle, because we all know Tyron missus at least

74
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 4: three to six games every year, so there's no choice

75
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 4: in this. And I mean that was awful. And everybody

76
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,119
Speaker 4: wants to blame Dak for that pick and say, oh, well,

77
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 4: you know he rushed it. He rushed it. Hello, if

78
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 4: you're getting hit from behind and you don't trust your

79
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 4: left tackle, you're gonna rush stuff regardless of what people say. Yeah,

80
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 4: he may have played decent all games, but that's also

81
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 4: on the coaches too, because you had an all Pro

82
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:17,280
Speaker 4: or not all Pro, but Pro Bowl tackle last year,

83
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 4: had left tackle that's playing guard for what I mean,

84
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 4: this is starting to become ridiculous and I want to

85
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 4: be like every other Cowboys fan every now and then,

86
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:34,239
Speaker 4: I'm tired of seeing the same old stuff. And hey, Nick,

87
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 4: you know this as good as I do. You have

88
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 4: the leading tackler on your and the SEC last year

89
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 4: at linebacker on your practice squad. I mean tyros Week

90
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 4: he led the SEC last year as a linebacker in tackles.

91
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:56,279
Speaker 4: And if Marcu's Bell and Lanier Thomas and stuff like

92
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,919
Speaker 4: that are not big enough to take on linemen and

93
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 4: get run over every game. Why don't you try something different,

94
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:04,839
Speaker 4: put somebody else there with some beef.

95
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 3: I mean probably, and they probably will. I mean they

96
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,160
Speaker 3: they have to do. Thanks for the call, Chris, and

97
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 3: obviously and loyal to your Mississippi ties, and and I

98
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 3: don't I don't fault you for that at all.

99
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 2: I don't.

100
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,720
Speaker 3: I don't know if the coach's staff is blaming anybody else.

101
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 3: I think the coaches blame them themselves, you know, I mean,

102
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 3: the only coach that really talks about it, I mean

103
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 3: the coordinators and and uh and of course Mike McCarthy,

104
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:32,600
Speaker 3: and they took ownership for it, you know. I I

105
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 3: disagree with some of that a little bit. You know,

106
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 3: some of that stuff happened later in the week Thursday Friday,

107
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 3: I think. I think on Friday there was a there

108
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 3: was a pretty good sense that that they were going

109
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 3: to have all of their linemen. So I don't know

110
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 3: if you if you can say all week long that

111
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 3: they they thought this, but still you you got to

112
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 3: be prepared for especially, like you said, Tyrone Smith, you

113
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 3: got to be prepared for that. I don't know if

114
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 3: they have a good enough plan there knowing that that

115
00:05:59,120 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 3: that could happen.

116
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 2: To it at any moment.

117
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 3: But but I was disappointed with the way the whole

118
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 3: team just kind of failed to rally. You know, it

119
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 3: is supposed to be next man up, and it's not

120
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 3: just the guys that get hurt, it's the you know

121
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 3: you you you carry. Everyone has supposed to to rise

122
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 3: to the occasion, and they didn't. I think that they

123
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 3: they all figured they could go win win that game.

124
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 3: I mean they could just whatever the circumstance was, they

125
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 3: would go and they would win. And it definitely didn't happen.

126
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 3: I thought Dak played okay. I mean the interception is

127
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:34,359
Speaker 3: just easy for for the haters to kind of say, well,

128
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,840
Speaker 3: here we go again. I don't you know, they were

129
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 3: trying to rush to get back in the game. You know,

130
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 3: they had to get a touchdown. There was not a

131
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 3: good decision. Everyone knows that. He knows it, so but

132
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:48,720
Speaker 3: don't I don't look back and go, well, they lost

133
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:52,159
Speaker 3: the game because of Dak. That's ridiculous, all right. Another

134
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,840
Speaker 3: call Darien from Houston. Darien, what's up, yo?

135
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 4: Nick Man?

136
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 2: Good?

137
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:58,279
Speaker 3: How are you doing?

138
00:06:58,839 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 5: Man?

139
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 6: I appreciate you doing that the good work there back

140
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 6: in my boy, Dak Man. I think this team's gonna

141
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:07,040
Speaker 6: be fine. I think they got caught looking past the

142
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 6: Cardinals a little bit like we all did. Really, two

143
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 6: quick questions.

144
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 2: Lyle Collins was.

145
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 6: Released about like two weeks ago. He was going to

146
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 6: start the season on PUB but he's free to sign

147
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 6: anywhere pending of physical Would you bring him back?

148
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 2: Is maybe a.

149
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 6: Swing tackle or a backup guard if he clears? You know,

150
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 6: I think these injuries, injuries are probably gonna be a

151
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 6: thing this year. I think they need a guy with

152
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 6: some experience and position flex And then secondly, how concerned

153
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 6: are you going into this weekend with the Patriots having

154
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 6: Zeke and now Will Greer kind of getting them to

155
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 6: tip off what kind of things we're doing offensively with

156
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 6: hand signals and maybe audibles and whatnot.

157
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, thanks for the call, good good stuff. The Liel situation,

158
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 3: you know, I think you always, you know, kick the

159
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 3: tires on on anybody really that that's played in the

160
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 3: league before and see if they still have some left.

161
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 3: I mean, there's a reason why he was really least

162
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 3: obviously reason why he hasn't been signed yet. But but

163
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 3: that but I think, you know, I'm sure the Cowboys

164
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 3: have done their homework on this, and and and you know,

165
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 3: have have discussed it. I mean, I think you have to.

166
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 3: You have to discuss all options, you know. I think

167
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 3: I would look into it, But then again, I don't

168
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 3: know some of the situations that he's been dealing with,

169
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 3: and I don't really know all the backstory of kind

170
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 3: of what happened. I don't think he left with a

171
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 3: situation that he would never return. I didn't think it

172
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:33,119
Speaker 3: was that bad. I know, a little bit of animosity

173
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 3: here and there, but usually that that's what happened anytime

174
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 3: you you part ways, you know, I think and he

175
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:39,839
Speaker 3: was excited about it, fresh start and all that. I

176
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,079
Speaker 3: don't I just don't know where he is physically or

177
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 3: mentally for that matter. But I would imagine the Cowboys

178
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,079
Speaker 3: have at least looked into him, just like they look

179
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 3: at all free agents that are out there, especially ones

180
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 3: that have played at a high level before the Patriots

181
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 3: coming in. I mean, the the Willgerer stuff. I never

182
00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:01,320
Speaker 3: put a lot of stock in and all that. You know,

183
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,080
Speaker 3: I think that, yeah, he's he's been here, and he's

184
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 3: he knows the team, But I don't I don't think

185
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 3: he's gonna I don't think he would he could tip

186
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 3: off a whole lot of stuff like that. I mean,

187
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,839
Speaker 3: if so, shame on the Cowboys if they let that happen.

188
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,200
Speaker 3: You know, I mean you you mix things up all

189
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,080
Speaker 3: the time. I just don't think that that Will Grier

190
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 3: being here affects that much. I do think Zeke, though

191
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,559
Speaker 3: he ran the ball well last week, you know, he's

192
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 3: gonna be running as hard as he possibly can. Uh,

193
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 3: They're gonna get him some some opportunities. And and you

194
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 3: know they they run the ball well with Stevens and

195
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 3: and and him, like they already run the ball well.

196
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 3: They ran it well against the Jets. So I think

197
00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 3: that you know, this is something to watch. Uh for sure,

198
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 3: This's gonna be a big key in the game, is

199
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 3: what happens there in the run. Let's go to some

200
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:48,360
Speaker 3: text line questions here. This is a raquel from Walnut Creek, California.

201
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 3: I love and I miss Zeke. What Dallas Cowboy player

202
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 3: did you love? And was bummed that the Cowboys traded?

203
00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,520
Speaker 3: Remember Zeke wasn't traded. But but I don't know what

204
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 3: you would are saying, Uh, what a former Cowboy player

205
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 3: do you love? And wish that they wouldn't have traded well,

206
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,800
Speaker 3: I mean I didn't. I didn't love the trade for

207
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:10,680
Speaker 3: a Marii Cooper.

208
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 2: I didn't.

209
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 3: I didn't love that. But that's not really kind of

210
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 3: what you're asking.

211
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 2: You know.

212
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 3: I was a huge deon sa Anders fan in my

213
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 3: first year covering the team. Dion was there, but that

214
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 3: I hated that they released him. Uh for you know,

215
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,480
Speaker 3: it was I was it was early into my you know,

216
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:29,839
Speaker 3: writing career and then covering this team, and I didn't

217
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 3: always understand the salary cap and that kind of stuff.

218
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 3: I didn't I didn't love the fact, especially that he

219
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 3: went to Washington, but you know, he was kind of

220
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 3: on the on the tail end of his career, but

221
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,960
Speaker 3: he had Dion was one that I that was one

222
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 3: where you didn't really understand that one. But let's okay,

223
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,680
Speaker 3: let's go to the callers. Uh, Travis in San Antonio, Travis,

224
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 3: what's up?

225
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 7: Happy Wednesday to you.

226
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 3: How are you doing you too? I'm doing good, Thanks Travis.

227
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 7: I just wanted to say I'm gonna go kind of

228
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,640
Speaker 7: a not so much this week, just kind of more

229
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 7: big picture thing. I've been doing it this for like

230
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 7: three weeks but haven't said it. And like for for

231
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 7: all the Cowboys fans out there that watch like national

232
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 7: media and all these personalities, I'm pretty much and this

233
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,560
Speaker 7: is me. First, I just like shut down that. I

234
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 7: just watch your show. I watched The Break, I watched

235
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 7: Talk you know, Vatch, Lombardi, Jeff Kavanaugh, Brian brought us

236
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:21,680
Speaker 7: one O five. If you're a Cowboys fan, just watch

237
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 7: that stuff. The personality is on national meters, so a

238
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 7: large part of not all of them are so uninformed

239
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:29,560
Speaker 7: with what's going on in the in the building that

240
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:31,559
Speaker 7: I just if you want to if you want to

241
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,440
Speaker 7: get actual information, then these are the places you need

242
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:34,839
Speaker 7: to watch.

243
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:37,480
Speaker 3: And uh, the way I look at that though, Kevin,

244
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 3: I mean, like like those guys that you're talking about,

245
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 3: I mean the stephen A is is that what you're

246
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 3: saying like those type of guys. Yeah, it's those to

247
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 3: me that you know. And and stephen A specifically, like

248
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 3: I I put him in the same category as like

249
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:58,319
Speaker 3: The Rock or Triple H. Seriously, I mean just entertainment.

250
00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 3: It's not it's it's scripted. I mean, I I you know,

251
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:06,080
Speaker 3: it's it's all for for shock value. I don't think

252
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 3: he believes half the stuff he says, but he's just

253
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 3: trying to draw people off side, you know. And that

254
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,199
Speaker 3: other show in Fox that they got the wannabes that

255
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 3: are trying to do the same thing.

256
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 2: You know.

257
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 3: Now, when they had David Hellman on there, it was

258
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,199
Speaker 3: a better show, and they and they need that a

259
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 3: little bit. But but yeah, I agree, I hear what

260
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 3: you're saying. I mean to me that that stuffs fake.

261
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 3: I really believe that that stuffs fake.

262
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,319
Speaker 7: And I only say that just because I guess I

263
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 7: could think because you know, with we're a polarizing team,

264
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 7: so like, but so many people get so upset when

265
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,439
Speaker 7: they hear stuff like that, and that's what I'm saying.

266
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 7: It's just easy to just dismiss it. It's just not

267
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,840
Speaker 7: not informed. But I also wanted to say from your

268
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 7: stuff yesterday, if I had to wear a Patriots jersey,

269
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 7: I'll go with Vince Willpork. Yeah, and I just bought

270
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:55,679
Speaker 7: my first coup I'm not a big jersey guy, but

271
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 7: I did buy a Larry Allen jersey.

272
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 3: Larry Allen, So you clearly like the guys in the

273
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,680
Speaker 3: trenches like you you respect the big linemen on both

274
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 3: sides of the ball. That's kind of you seemed like

275
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 3: your thing.

276
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, all right, have a great week.

277
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 3: You too, Thank you, Travis appreciate that. Let's go to

278
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 3: Kevin in New Jersey. Let's go back to the phone

279
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,439
Speaker 3: line here, Kevin in New Jersey, still with us?

280
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 5: Hey, Nick, how are you?

281
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 2: How good?

282
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 8: How are you doing great? Love the show, A longtime

283
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:25,959
Speaker 8: fan of yours.

284
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:27,200
Speaker 3: Thank you.

285
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:32,440
Speaker 8: The thoughts I have about this upcoming game are concerned

286
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 8: with Bill Belichick. I really believe rosters across the NFL

287
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 8: are somewhat even. But my opinion is that the schemes

288
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 8: that are put into play for each week play a

289
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 8: huge part in the outcome. So I'm looking ahead and

290
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 8: I see Belichick and I know what he's going to

291
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 8: do is focus on taking Parsons out of the game.

292
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,680
Speaker 8: I just wanted to hear your thoughts on concerns with

293
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 8: the upcoming week. I mean, I feel like we have

294
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 8: a great roster. I feel like we've got great defensive coordinator.

295
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 8: But a little concerned belichicks out schemus this coming week.

296
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 2: You know, fair.

297
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 3: I appreciate the call. I mean, you can definitely, you know,

298
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 3: you can definitely talk about that and and and that

299
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 3: that would be fair because go back and look at

300
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 3: at what happened with with Parsons the first time that

301
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,280
Speaker 3: they played. Uh, he was you know, he was early

302
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,520
Speaker 3: in his rookie year, and I think that was probably

303
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 3: the least production that he had in any game.

304
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 2: Uh that whole year.

305
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 3: He didn't have a sack, he didn't have a quarterback hit.

306
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 3: And so they they did a pretty good job of

307
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 3: taking him out of that game. Now, the Cowboys did

308
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 3: win in overtime, but you know, and he said yesterday

309
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 3: or earlier this week, I think he said on a

310
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 3: radio show up there in New England that that he's

311
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 3: he's a lot like Lawrence Taylor and that you have

312
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 3: to locate him first and then he could do everything well.

313
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 3: And so it was a really nice quote. I think

314
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 3: we put a story on the on the website Dallas

315
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 3: Cowboys dot com about that, you know, just just that

316
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 3: quote that Belichick said. So, yeah, he's gonna definitely, you know,

317
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 3: try to take him out of the game. Easier said

318
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 3: than done. But but if there's somebody that can do that,

319
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,240
Speaker 3: it would be it would be him. But you know,

320
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 3: that's why you have all this depth, that's why you

321
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 3: have the guys like Dorn's Armstrong and Sam Williams and

322
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 3: Fowler and Tank. Of course, Tank's playing really well. I

323
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 3: you know, he's played He's had some really really good

324
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 3: moments there early in the season. So you know, it's

325
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 3: easier said than done. And I would imagine dan Quinn's

326
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 3: gonna have to do some some different wrinkles as well

327
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 3: with him. But yeah, that's gonna be something to watch

328
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,560
Speaker 3: all week. We got some text message questions that I

329
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 3: want to get to here. Jason from Pennsylvania says, do

330
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 3: other teams have dramatic ups and downs from game to game?

331
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 3: I would imagine, I mean, I you know, I don't.

332
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:49,120
Speaker 3: You don't follow these other teams, but yeah, just look

333
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:50,960
Speaker 3: at their records. I mean, there's a lot of teams

334
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 3: that are in between the eight to nine, nine and eight,

335
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 3: you know, seven and ten, ten and seven. You can't

336
00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 3: do that without going up, down, up down. That's that's

337
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 3: the nature of the NFL is to make everybody equal.

338
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 3: And when that happens, yeah, you play well one week,

339
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 3: you play well at the next. I don't know if

340
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 3: it's just as dramatic, because I don't think the Cowboys,

341
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:13,400
Speaker 3: you know, I don't think other teams are viewed the

342
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 3: same way nationally. But yeah, I mean I do think

343
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 3: that and that's just the way it is. And I

344
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 3: think a lot of fan bases.

345
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 2: Are that way.

346
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 3: You know where I mean McCarthy was, you know, they

347
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 3: they were getting all kinds of praise two weeks ago,

348
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 3: and now that you know he wasn't prepared, wasn't prepared.

349
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 2: For the game.

350
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 3: And then you know, same with Dak So it happens.

351
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:33,640
Speaker 3: That's that's the way it is. I would imagine it's

352
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 3: the same with with a lot of teams. All right,

353
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:38,680
Speaker 3: Michael and Bowling Green Kentucky fan since nineteen eighty. Any

354
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 3: chance they would bring Trey Lance in for a goal

355
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:44,680
Speaker 3: line or need one yard on fourth and inches, I

356
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 3: don't think we're there for that yet. And and you

357
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 3: know that would that would kind of make they'd have

358
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 3: to make some changes on how they structure the game

359
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 3: day roster. If that was the case, Cooper Rush would

360
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 3: have to be the third quarterback. I don't think they're

361
00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 3: They're I don't think that's going to be a thing

362
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 3: right now. I think I think the idea with Trey

363
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 3: Lances to just kind of keep him developing this year,

364
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:07,480
Speaker 3: learning the system, being a good scout team quarterback. Things

365
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,919
Speaker 3: like that, don't I don't see that the packages for

366
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:13,399
Speaker 3: him right now? All right's back to the phone lines,

367
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:14,360
Speaker 3: Joe and Stanford.

368
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 9: Joe, what's up, Hey, morning, sir. So A couple of things. First,

369
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 9: you're our first caller of the day, gentlemen from Mississippi

370
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 9: is talking about the line. What I saw was we

371
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 9: moved the ball pretty dang well, honestly, up and down

372
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:35,919
Speaker 9: the field. We ran it decently, actually pretty well. We

373
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 9: just when we got to the red zone, we just

374
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:41,440
Speaker 9: didn't execute again. So I'm not so sure I would

375
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 9: blame it even on having all those backup linemen in there.

376
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:51,280
Speaker 9: As far as looking forward and sort of looking at

377
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:56,479
Speaker 9: it at Micah, I don't get why we are having

378
00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 9: the same issues that we had last year. I feel

379
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 9: like that the things that they're doing to Mica to

380
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:08,960
Speaker 9: to neutralize him are the same things that he was

381
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 9: getting done to him last year. And I feel like

382
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 9: maybe we need to figure out why that's happening, what

383
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 9: what or what are we not doing to to make

384
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 9: sure that that doesn't happen in the future.

385
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,240
Speaker 3: Joe, he's getting he's getting double teamed. I mean like

386
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 3: like that he's getting double team since his rookie year.

387
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:31,239
Speaker 3: I mean, like what I explain that a little bit

388
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:34,600
Speaker 3: more when you're say why this is keeps happening? I mean,

389
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:36,920
Speaker 3: he's got four sacks in three games. I think he's

390
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:38,960
Speaker 3: he's making a huge difference in the game.

391
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 9: Well, well, there were several there were several plays or

392
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 9: at least two or three that I remember and happened

393
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:48,720
Speaker 9: a lot last year where he's running free and missing

394
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 9: this running quarterback, letting the guy just run right past him.

395
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:53,959
Speaker 5: Yeah, it happened.

396
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 9: So that's that's specifically what I'm talking about. Yeah, and

397
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:01,240
Speaker 9: who Parsons is running free? He needs to be making

398
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:01,639
Speaker 9: the play?

399
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,439
Speaker 3: Who were putting that on? I mean, to me, I

400
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 3: don't know, that's one that's on Mia Parsons, that's on

401
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:11,640
Speaker 3: Micah Parsons. That to me, that's Michael Parsons. Has got

402
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:12,919
Speaker 3: to be better at doing that.

403
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:15,480
Speaker 4: Like like, yeah, I.

404
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 9: Don't disagree with you. I'm just we need to help

405
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,439
Speaker 9: him be better. I don't know what we need to do,

406
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,880
Speaker 9: but he's good enough to make the plays. He needs

407
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 9: to be making those plays.

408
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,879
Speaker 3: One hundred and that's that's you know, And Joe I

409
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,160
Speaker 3: I appreciate it. And and that's one thing that it's

410
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 3: kind of it's kind of frustrated me a little bit,

411
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:33,680
Speaker 3: is that you know that that Dak is getting all

412
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 3: this that this heat for throwing a you know, pretty

413
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:40,880
Speaker 3: much a desperation type fourth quarter interception, when when when

414
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,359
Speaker 3: a guy that's been touted as MVP wants to be

415
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:45,560
Speaker 3: you know, he even said himself, you know, like why

416
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,520
Speaker 3: why don't defensive guys get put in m v P.

417
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 3: So so he's putting that on himself as well. And

418
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 3: I think I think this whole team, they're so fascinated

419
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,120
Speaker 3: with getting sacks all the time, to get sacked, sack

420
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,439
Speaker 3: sacks where you know you're missing some plays, you're missing

421
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,359
Speaker 3: a room team runs. So you've got to be disciplined.

422
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:04,800
Speaker 3: I mean, I'll go back and think of a guy

423
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 3: Dwight Freeney back in the day with the Colts. Man

424
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 3: love to get sacks, but they can run the ball

425
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 3: right past them sometimes, And so you've got to be

426
00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:14,919
Speaker 3: disciplined to not only stay in your lane, but but

427
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 3: you've got to make the play first. If it's a sack, great,

428
00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 3: but if not, you've got to have containment. And that

429
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:24,360
Speaker 3: doesn't always happen, all right, Bruce and Houston. Bruce, what's up?

430
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:26,920
Speaker 5: Hey, Nick, good good show.

431
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 10: Thanks for the call. That kind of leads into what

432
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:33,639
Speaker 10: I was thinking about on the RPO, because Micah missed

433
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:37,120
Speaker 10: that first forty plus yard ran that Dobbs took off

434
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:40,919
Speaker 10: on him. To me, I would whoever's on the outside,

435
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:44,879
Speaker 10: whether it's Micah or Lawrence or whoever they've got to,

436
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:48,360
Speaker 10: in my opinion, on a running quarterback like that hit him,

437
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 10: whether he's got the ball or not, he's he's like

438
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:52,879
Speaker 10: a running back, then you're not going to get penalized

439
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:56,679
Speaker 10: if I'm if I'm if I'm correct on tackling him,

440
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,880
Speaker 10: not pile driving because you're going to get flag for that, but.

441
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,480
Speaker 11: Can help you do that about four or five times.

442
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,120
Speaker 10: And that quarterback gonna tell that offensive Cordner, Hey, let's

443
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 10: let the running back do that. But that's how like

444
00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 10: you said earlier, you've got to maintain your lanes. I

445
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:16,399
Speaker 10: just think we're gonna find out about our cowboys this

446
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 10: Sunday because you're you're not as good as they say

447
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:21,199
Speaker 10: you are. You're not as bad as they say you are.

448
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,360
Speaker 10: But until you get punched in the mouth, then you're

449
00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:25,480
Speaker 10: gonna find out who they are. I think they were.

450
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:27,480
Speaker 10: We all had them. Hey, it's gonna be four and

451
00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:30,199
Speaker 10: o's Hey, Francisco, and we forgot to think about the

452
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 10: Cardinals are the Patriots, and the Patriots can run the ball.

453
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 10: You know, Ellie is gonna be trying to just smash

454
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,080
Speaker 10: mouth everybody, so I'd like to see him go eight

455
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:40,880
Speaker 10: in the box and make Jones beat him over the top.

456
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:41,840
Speaker 10: But great show.

457
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, thank you. I appreciate that you and I think

458
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 3: you have to do that. I think you have to

459
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:48,879
Speaker 3: be like that with with you know, the way the

460
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:52,399
Speaker 3: Patriots are probably gonna run the ball, you have to

461
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,120
Speaker 3: be closer to the line of scrimmage. I think they're

462
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 3: gonna have to maybe figure out ways to have a

463
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 3: little bit more beef back there. And let's be clear too,

464
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 3: this is just about Markue's Bell now, Marquis Bell and

465
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:06,120
Speaker 3: jay Ron Curse. It's not just about them. Like you've

466
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:10,159
Speaker 3: also the linebackers Dimone, clark Leyton Vanderush. They got to

467
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,439
Speaker 3: get off some blocks as well, so it's not just

468
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:16,880
Speaker 3: about them all the time. Real quick, we're gonna take

469
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 3: another call Steve in New York.

470
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:20,879
Speaker 12: Hey, make great show Man.

471
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:21,520
Speaker 3: Thanks Steve.

472
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 12: Just quick, I spoke to you before the season started

473
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:29,640
Speaker 12: about where the Cowboys we're going to get that those

474
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 12: short yardage plays and whatnot red zone two and I'm

475
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,359
Speaker 12: just you know, this is just my opinion. You know,

476
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 12: we're trying to replace two guys that were real red

477
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,479
Speaker 12: zone targets last year. I mean, Zeke's twelve touchdowns were

478
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 12: all red zone last year. I'm pretty sure Dalton Schultz

479
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 12: were too. And I know nobody probably wants to hear it,

480
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 12: but do you think it's going to take time to

481
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:56,640
Speaker 12: acclimate Dak Prescott to find guys to replace their production

482
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:57,600
Speaker 12: because those.

483
00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:58,840
Speaker 5: Guys were big in the red zone.

484
00:22:58,920 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 12: And I'm not making an.

485
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:01,679
Speaker 2: Excuse, no, I hear you, I hear you.

486
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:06,120
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, twelve touchdowns doesn't just happen overnight. I mean,

487
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:10,920
Speaker 3: that's that's significant. So you're right, they haven't figured that

488
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,920
Speaker 3: this this part out yet. They really haven't figured out

489
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 3: how they want to do it and how that how

490
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 3: you know they're gonna be able to utilize that.

491
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,880
Speaker 12: I know that, you know, Ronald Jones was the kind

492
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 12: of quick fixed thing that never obviously didn't pan out.

493
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,119
Speaker 12: But what do you think the chances of them uh

494
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:29,960
Speaker 12: going out and maybe get it. I'm not going to

495
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,679
Speaker 12: say a four net, but somebody brings somebody in.

496
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 3: I really don't see that. Thanks for the call, Steve,

497
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,760
Speaker 3: I don't really see that. I think that they they're

498
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:40,400
Speaker 3: they're good with the running back situation.

499
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 2: Now.

500
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 3: The one thing I could I could see happening a

501
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:45,480
Speaker 3: little bit more is Hunter Lipke getting getting more involved.

502
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:48,400
Speaker 3: I mean, like he's everything that they've given him, he's

503
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 3: done well. I could see him continuing to to get

504
00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:54,119
Speaker 3: a little bit more reps. Maybe maybe some in the

505
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 3: red zone. You know, but but you know, but to

506
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 3: do that, he probably to be more effective. You're probably

507
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:04,880
Speaker 3: gonna have to be the tailback, not so much the fullback.

508
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 3: But there's different ways that they can do it. Then

509
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 3: then they have to figure it out. I mean, there's

510
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,880
Speaker 3: no doubt about it. You can't just keep kicking field

511
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 3: goals all the time, especially when you go against better offenses.

512
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,120
Speaker 3: All right, we're gonna take a break. When we come back,

513

00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:41,400
Speaker 3: Danny McCrae, proud l s u alum, former Dallas Cowboy.

Speaker 2: You look good man, You alumna or you.

558
00:26:56,680 --> 00:27:01,600
Speaker 3: All right, So we made a friendly deal, jersey deal,

559
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:06,080
Speaker 3: jersey deal, and this guy couldn't couldn't get a jersey,

560
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,879
Speaker 3: so he gets this nasty purple color. This is LSU

561
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 3: versus Arkansas. There's a lot of story behind this whole thing.

562
00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 3: We talked all week. I basically said, I thought that

563
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 3: Arkansas was going to win the game, even though they

564
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,719
Speaker 3: were what eighteen point underdogs, eyes, I knew the way

565
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,239
Speaker 3: they would play, we would play well. I knew they

566
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 3: would play well, and I thought they were they were

567
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 3: going to win the game. And you look at the game.

568
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 3: They lost thirty four to thirty one. At the buzzer

569
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 3: LSU one. Good for them, good for Danny. But it

570
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,359
Speaker 3: was a jersey bet. It was supposed to wear a jersey,

571
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 3: you know. I mean, like, you know, I got my jersey.

572
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 3: I've got my jersey to wear it, so you want

573
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:41,719
Speaker 3: to wear this.

574
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 2: I mean, look, we didn't.

575
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:44,680
Speaker 17: We didn't beat like a really good team, so it

576
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 17: was more like a T shirt win versus a jersey win.

577
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:49,359
Speaker 2: It was like Alabama somebody.

578
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:53,480
Speaker 3: Anyways, nobody cares everyone everyone, you know, you listen to

579
00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:56,879
Speaker 3: your show, Okay, cool, all right, good for them. Go Tiger,

580
00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:01,240
Speaker 3: We're gonna we might end early here now. So I

581
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 3: absolutely hate this color.

582
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:05,520
Speaker 2: Just wear Barney Royalty.

583
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 3: Anyways, all right, so I lost, Arkansas lost the game, Danny,

584
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 3: they won, l s U got to win. Yeah, good

585
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:21,399
Speaker 3: for y'all. Anyways, Cowboys, Cowboys, Cardinals. Yeah, you're you're on

586
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:25,199
Speaker 3: the show players lounge. What what's the what's the sentiment? Like,

587
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:27,120
Speaker 3: I mean, what's going on here with with in your

588
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 3: mind with with the with the Cowboys and how they

589
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,840
Speaker 3: lost that game, and you know it's the sky falling

590
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 3: all that stuff.

591
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:37,439
Speaker 17: I don't think the sky is falling. I think you know,

592
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:40,040
Speaker 17: I was very high on Big Mic this year, Mike

593
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:43,520
Speaker 17: McCarthy calling plays and him saying that, hey, I'm going

594
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,240
Speaker 17: to make sure I play to my defense. I think

595
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,040
Speaker 17: the first two games you saw was getting out into

596
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 17: the red zone and instead of worry about what everybody

597
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,000
Speaker 17: else said about how our red zone, how we were

598
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 17: performing in the red zone, we kicked the field goals.

599
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 2: We got out of there.

600
00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 17: And I'm watching the game and I'm like, Okay, Big

601
00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,440
Speaker 17: Mic is going to kick this field goal no matter

602
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 17: what's happening to us on defense. And he's gonna trust

603
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 17: that we're gonna be able to make a play and

604
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 17: he goes for it on fourth Yeah, And at that moment,

605
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:08,400
Speaker 17: I was like, this ain't the same as the first

606
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 17: two games.

607
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 3: Why do you think you think it was a lack

608
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,360
Speaker 3: of trust or do you think it just the feel

609
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:14,040
Speaker 3: in the game.

610
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:14,719
Speaker 2: I think it was.

611
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 17: I think it's you go into the first two games

612
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 17: and you don't perform very well in the red zone.

613
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,520
Speaker 17: Well when you compare it to how many touchdowns versus

614
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:24,480
Speaker 17: how many field goals you're scoring, but for me, it's

615
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 17: you're ending the drive with a kick, you're getting points,

616
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:28,320
Speaker 17: and you're letting your defense go out there and do

617
00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 17: what they do. Previous two games, we kicked a lot

618
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 17: of field goals. We weren't scoring touchdowns in the red zone,

619
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 17: and what were people saying once you got out of

620
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,479
Speaker 17: those games, man, we turn those in the touchdowns, like

621
00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 17: that's going to be that much better for us as

622
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 17: we go through the season, and we didn't do it.

623
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 17: So I think when we got into the red zone

624
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 17: this game, it's like, you know what, I got to

625
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 17: score a touchdown in the red zone. We went for

626
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 17: it on fourth down, and it changed the whole dynamic

627
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,480
Speaker 17: of how we had been playing that first two weeks.

628
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 3: And it wasn't just the fact that you didn't score,

629
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 3: but you let them get what thirty five yards out

630
00:29:58,280 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 3: of it. I mean, there's one thing. If you can

631
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:01,400
Speaker 3: just go three now and they punt, you're probably gonna

632
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 3: be back down there again. But they got a big,

633
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 3: big play out of it, and you're right, it kind

634
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:08,200
Speaker 3: of changed the whole momentum. It was kind of like,

635
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,280
Speaker 3: all right, the Cardinals were like, we can take their

636
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:12,360
Speaker 3: best way, Well, how many times we throw the ball?

637
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 2: Right?

638
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,440
Speaker 17: It changed the way we played the entire game. And

639
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 17: I know, like they were driving the ball on us

640
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 17: on defense, But that's first half.

641
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 2: Second half we came out and we played.

642
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,800
Speaker 17: We played better, But I think we had an opportunity

643
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,320
Speaker 17: to say, all right, listen, we got a whole second half.

644
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 17: We're gonna get these three points and we're gonna stick

645
00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 17: to the plan that we've been doing for the first

646
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 17: two games. And I think it changed for some reason

647
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,960
Speaker 17: when we went on fourth now, and I think it

648
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:39,920
Speaker 17: was just different. It was just different. I don't think

649
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:41,680
Speaker 17: the sky's falling. I think we'll get back to what

650
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:43,720
Speaker 17: we were doing because we saw that it didn't work,

651
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:45,720
Speaker 17: and I think we'll be okay. It won't be as

652
00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 17: easy as I thought it was gonna be there.

653
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:49,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I think that's the same with a lot

654
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,320
Speaker 3: of fans right now. All right, this first time you've

655
00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:54,000
Speaker 3: been on this show. We take a lot of callers

656
00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:55,480
Speaker 3: on here. We've got a couple that are on the

657
00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 3: line right now, so we're gonna We're gonna go back

00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:01,920

Speaker 18: I'm doing great. How you guys doing today?

661
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 3: I'm good.

662
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 18: Danny McCray, mister McCray, I see you out here doing

663
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:10,240
Speaker 18: your thing on Sivira.

664
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 3: Man.

665
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:11,640
Speaker 2: I love it. I love it.

666
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:12,240
Speaker 5: Hey.

667
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:13,760
Speaker 18: First off, I didn't know you were gonna be in

668
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:17,360
Speaker 18: a show, so I'm keeeking out little bit. I love

669
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 18: the Player's Lounge as well. I watch all the shows

670
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 18: first we call the players Lounge. I have not seen

671
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 18: one other show that tears the players up as much

672
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:28,920
Speaker 18: as you guys riot every single day. My question is that,

673
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 18: what exactly do you think is the issue that's going

674
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:33,880
Speaker 18: on with Dak Because right now he's sitting that in

675
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 18: my mind, if we're being honest, the number two quarterback

676
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 18: in the nfcast, he's not running and tucking the ball

677
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 18: and running and he gets tuck the ball and run.

678
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 18: It seems like he's a little indecisive. Is it just

679
00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:45,680
Speaker 18: the offensive line or is there something more, maybe like

680
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:47,800
Speaker 18: some remnants of thinking from like, hey, back when I

681
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:49,640
Speaker 18: got injured for running and stuff like that, that's stopping

682
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:50,680
Speaker 18: him from being the Dak that.

683
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:51,440
Speaker 9: We know he can be.

684
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 18: I'll hang up and listen.

685
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 2: You know what. Thanks.

686
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,240
Speaker 17: I actually think that Dak has been running more at

687
00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 17: the beginning of this season than he has the previous

688
00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 17: two seas. I think it's getting more comfortable running the ball.

689
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:05,959
Speaker 17: Do I wish he does it? We'll do it more

690
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:06,720
Speaker 17: in the red zone?

691
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,280
Speaker 2: Yes, I do. I wish he would.

692
00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 17: I think what we're the issue that we're having with

693
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:15,600
Speaker 17: Dak now is one we came out the first two

694
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 17: games and we were throwing a lot of short passes,

695
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 17: a lot of get them out quick. The Dallas Coast offense, Hey,

696
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 17: three yards, get the ball in their hands. And I

697
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 17: think now you're going to see a lot of teams

698
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,800
Speaker 17: sitting on those routes same way that they sit on

699
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 17: those routes when you get into the red zone, and

700
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 17: it's taking those spaces away from him. So he has

701
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,280
Speaker 17: to be able to open up the defense by completing

702
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:35,960
Speaker 17: some of those deep routes. And when I say completing them,

703
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 17: I don't mean back show to fade, go out of

704
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 17: bounds and then we come back to running next play.

705
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:44,040
Speaker 2: I mean Tyreek Hill type, Hey, run.

706
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,520
Speaker 17: Underneath the ball, get you a sixty yard pass, and

707
00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:48,480
Speaker 17: then make the defense respect the fact that you can

708
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 17: make that throw and they'll have to play a little

709
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:52,880
Speaker 17: deeper and that'll spread them out a little bit.

710
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:54,520
Speaker 2: But we haven't been completing those type of passes.

711
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 3: And honestly, and you know, as a safety, I mean

712
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:00,200
Speaker 3: like you don't always even have to complete it to

713
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 3: send a message. I mean, if you throw a deep

714
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 3: ball to a guy and even if it's incomplete, least

715
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:06,080
Speaker 3: at least they know that.

716
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 17: All Right, If I'm playing deep middle safety and I

717
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,640
Speaker 17: gotta get on the gas and go one hundred percent

718
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:15,600
Speaker 17: because I feel like I'm behind or this dude might

719
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,560
Speaker 17: catch this sixty yard pass the next play, I'm gonna

720
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:20,960
Speaker 17: make sure that I'm probably five yards deeper, right if

721
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 17: it's third whatever, it is. I'm gonna make sure I'm

722
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:24,280
Speaker 17: a little deeper, and that is going to spread out

723
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:26,280
Speaker 17: the entire defense because now the corners are gonna feel

724
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:28,280
Speaker 17: the same way, and that makes the linebackers have to

725
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:30,080
Speaker 17: get a little bit deeper in their drops because there's

726
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:31,560
Speaker 17: a little bit more space than if they don't.

727
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 2: That opens it up for you.

728
00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:36,200
Speaker 17: And I think we're taking those shots, but if we

729
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:39,560
Speaker 17: don't complete them or that thread of like, hey, ceedd

730
00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 17: Lamb's about to catch the sixty yard bomb on us.

731
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:43,640
Speaker 17: We got Brandon Cooks back there, Michael Gallup. We don't

732
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 17: start completing those passes, you're gonna see a lot of

733
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:47,480
Speaker 17: people sitting on sitting on these routes.

734
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:50,480
Speaker 3: All right, all right, let's go to David and fort Worth.

735
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 3: David's our next caller, David, what's up?

736
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:54,280
Speaker 19: Hey, how you doing guys?

737
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 2: Good? David?

738
00:33:56,280 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 19: Yes, sir, Yes, sir, Hey real quick, mission crazy Danny.

739
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:01,960
Speaker 19: I didn't know you're going to be on man. I

740
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,440
Speaker 19: want to let you know, I didn't watch an episode

741
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:06,800
Speaker 19: of Survivor my entire life when I heard you were

742
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:07,320
Speaker 19: going to be on it.

743
00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 5: Man.

744
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 19: My wife and I were on it every single everying

745
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:12,720
Speaker 19: was it Wednesday? I think it was watched every single

746
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:16,239
Speaker 19: one and Bro that chick should not have won, many

747
00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:18,480
Speaker 19: voted out, should have never came back. That was I

748
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:21,279
Speaker 19: was upset, but your God, Cowboys. At the end, I

749
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:23,799
Speaker 19: was like icnic Bro, it was iconic, But I wanted

750
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:26,520
Speaker 19: to ask a real quick question about Zeke man Zeke's returning.

751
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:29,480
Speaker 19: I have the same little feeling that ever Dead was

752
00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:31,680
Speaker 19: going to have an opportunity to come back and play

753
00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:33,840
Speaker 19: when he was with the Ravens, and unfortunately he couldn't.

754
00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:37,279
Speaker 19: And I never want any player to come back and

755
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:39,719
Speaker 19: beat the Cowboys because I'm a Cowboys fan through and through.

756
00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:41,480
Speaker 19: But I want him to have a little bit of

757
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 19: success because like I like, so I know, I know,

758
00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:47,120
Speaker 19: and I wanted to get your perspective as a player,

759
00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 19: like I want Zeke to come to come back. I

760
00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:51,600
Speaker 19: wanted Dez to come back and play well because I

761
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:54,000
Speaker 19: still believed in them. Does that make me a bad fan?

762
00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:55,399
Speaker 19: I'll hang up and listen.

763
00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 2: Man.

764
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:56,160
Speaker 19: Honestly, it.

765
00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:00,360
Speaker 17: Doesn't make you a bad fan, because, as you're rooting

766
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,319
Speaker 17: for a team, you do feel a personal connection to

767
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 17: certain players, So you wanting him to do well doesn't

768
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:09,320
Speaker 17: make you any less of a fan for the Cowboys

769
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,960
Speaker 17: because the truth is he might all right, but we

770
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:14,160
Speaker 17: don't want him to win. We don't want him to win.

771
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:17,000
Speaker 17: I don't there's nothing against you for wanting Zeke to

772
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,359
Speaker 17: do well, because honestly, as a former player, I want

773
00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:21,480
Speaker 17: everybody to do well. But at the end of the day,

774
00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 17: I want my team to win, So don't feel bad

775
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:27,920
Speaker 17: about it. Zeke got eighteen carriages last week for eighty hours,

776
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:30,600
Speaker 17: so he's gonna get some rips. So we're gonna get

777
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:32,319
Speaker 17: tested again like we did this week in the run

778
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:33,239
Speaker 17: and we'll see what he can do.

779
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I certainly not a bad fan. I mean,

780
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,719
Speaker 3: David's one of the callers that calls almost every day

781
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:43,399
Speaker 3: and so certainly certainly not. And I think it makes

782
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,319
Speaker 3: you a human. I mean that more than anything. I mean,

783
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:49,440
Speaker 3: that's the good thing about this situation with Zeke is

784
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:52,080
Speaker 3: that you know, his career is a lot of ups

785
00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 3: and downs and for the most part, but he like

786
00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 3: he can leave. He left the Cowboys on good terms,

787
00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:01,319
Speaker 3: and I think, I think, you know, their Cowboys are

788
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:04,279
Speaker 3: going to do something for him. You'll see, you know,

789
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 3: in the stadium, they'll they'll they'll have something for him

790
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:09,120
Speaker 3: and I'm sure you know, he said all the right things.

791
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:12,279
Speaker 3: So this is going to be a good homecoming. Now,

792
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:15,120
Speaker 3: at the end of the day, he's definitely gonna want Yeah,

793
00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:17,839
Speaker 3: he're gonna want to win this game. But uh but yeah,

794
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 3: it's you know, everything is so far is on good time.

795
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:23,600
Speaker 17: Well, listen, they need to do something for him because

796
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:25,719
Speaker 17: this is the last play that he had here. We

797
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,399
Speaker 17: want to see we want to see something different from

798
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:31,719
Speaker 17: Zeke's return to AT and T Stadium because he gave

799
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:31,960
Speaker 17: us the.

800
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:35,520
Speaker 2: Kettle, the red kettle, Jones, all the positive stuff. It

801
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:38,000
Speaker 2: just for me to remember that that's how you went out.

802
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:39,319
Speaker 2: But the last play of Dallas.

803
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,400
Speaker 3: You don't think they're going to be like former Cowboys center.

804
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:46,960
Speaker 17: I'll tell you they're not showing that play on the

805
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:52,040
Speaker 17: video boards. Appreciation for watching Survivor. Tell the wife, I said, hello,

812
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,520
Speaker 17: is going on, and it's a very good season. They

813
00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:10,680
Speaker 17: brought some of the old MTV vets in to shake

814
00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:12,440
Speaker 17: things up a little bit, and it's actually been a

815
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:17,359
Speaker 17: very exciting Like Banana Bananas is there, Wes was there.

816
00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:21,440
Speaker 17: CT is not there, but he is making his return.

817
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:22,439
Speaker 17: He is making his return.

818
00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:24,160
Speaker 3: So how many things have you been on? You've been

819
00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:24,880
Speaker 3: on the Survivor.

820
00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:27,920
Speaker 17: I did Survivor and I did two seasons of the Challenge.

821
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:31,360
Speaker 17: I did the Challenge USA one and the Challenge World Championship.

822
00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:32,879
Speaker 3: Is that come out yet on TV?

823
00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 17: Yes, it's over. I got second, You got second. I

824
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,040
Speaker 17: got second place because my partner couldn't ride a bike.

825
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:40,880
Speaker 17: But yeah, you know, well that was that was a

826
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:42,960
Speaker 17: big reason she couldn't ride back. I don't want you know,

827
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 17: I'm not I'm not a finger pointer.

828
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,400
Speaker 3: You basically just said she didn't have the same skills

829
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:50,319
Speaker 3: most like, you.

830
00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:52,279
Speaker 2: Know, very riding bike.

831
00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:57,759
Speaker 3: All right, Miguel in pearsall Texas, Miguel, what's up?

832
00:37:58,000 --> 00:37:59,880
Speaker 2: I was going good?

833
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:00,600
Speaker 3: How you doing?

834
00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:01,000
Speaker 9: Hey?

835
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:03,000
Speaker 5: Good morning man? I got a question, bro.

836
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:07,240
Speaker 11: So we picked up Brandon Cooks. He's had several thousand

837
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:11,960
Speaker 11: yard rushing seasons throughout his career. I feel like it's

838
00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:15,200
Speaker 11: with him, we're underutilizing them with too many under routes

839
00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 11: and not giving them the opportunity to get the separation

840
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,400
Speaker 11: and take off the top of the defense like we

841
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:23,760
Speaker 11: were supposed to take off, you know, Like this past

842
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:25,680
Speaker 11: couple of games, Yeah, he's had a couple of catches.

843
00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:28,720
Speaker 11: You know, he's picking up good first downs and moving

844
00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:31,440
Speaker 11: the ball like we need to. But I just feel

845
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:33,160
Speaker 11: like whenever you get a player like that that you know,

846
00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:36,600
Speaker 11: that can take off the top off the defense, and

847
00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:39,240
Speaker 11: you're just not putting them on top of the defense,

848
00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:42,479
Speaker 11: you know, like I just don't understand, Like you got

849
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:46,719
Speaker 11: Ceedee Lamb, which has been amazing basically catching everything that's

850
00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:49,359
Speaker 11: been getting thrown his way. You know, Michael Gallup, which

851
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,319
Speaker 11: is the sideline boss that you need a freaking first down,

852
00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:53,960
Speaker 11: you throw it to the sideline, he's gonna toe tap

853
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 11: it in and Brandon Cooks. You know, He's just I

854
00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:58,640
Speaker 11: feel like if the.

855
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 5: Way that things are going that it's.

856
00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:03,080
Speaker 11: Just gonna be one of those seasons if he don't

857
00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:05,879
Speaker 11: meet he's not gonna meet that thousand yard mark.

858
00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:11,160
Speaker 3: Well, thanks for the call, Miguel. I mean, I'll get

859
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 3: your thoughts on this, Danny. I just think it's early.

860
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:17,399
Speaker 3: He's played two games. One game was in the rain.

861
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:19,200
Speaker 3: They're not gonna throw the ball deep around and they

862
00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:22,000
Speaker 3: didn't have to. The game was over before basically started.

863
00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 3: And then last week, you know, coming off the knee injury. Yeah,

864
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:27,800
Speaker 3: I don't think he moved the ball down the field

865
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,720
Speaker 3: with him as much. But I think we're still pretty

866
00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:33,080
Speaker 3: early in this whole process with Brandon Cooks.

867
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:34,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the same.

868
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 17: It would be unfortunate if, like this is the team

869
00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:38,480
Speaker 17: that he comes to and he's not able to crack

870
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:41,600
Speaker 17: that thousand yard I think it will be telling you

871
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,520
Speaker 17: in my opinion, But it is early. He missed the game.

872
00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:47,880
Speaker 17: This is a new team, a new system, new quarterback.

873
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:50,399
Speaker 17: I think he still needs some more games to get

874
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:51,919
Speaker 17: on the same page with Dak and I think that's

875
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:54,799
Speaker 17: honestly back with a lot of his receivers. As far

876
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:56,520
Speaker 17: as throwing the deep ball, I don't want to see

877
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:58,680
Speaker 17: Brandon Cooks just get out here and just run straight

878
00:39:58,719 --> 00:39:59,240
Speaker 17: deep shots.

879
00:39:59,280 --> 00:39:59,880
Speaker 2: I think he is.

880
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:01,719
Speaker 17: He is a factor in the middle of the field

881
00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:03,319
Speaker 17: as well, and we saw it on that third down

882
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:06,959
Speaker 17: catch that that he knows how to run the routes

883
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:08,719
Speaker 17: and get in those zones, So I still want to

884
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:11,160
Speaker 17: see him do that. But I think our offense as

885
00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:13,919
Speaker 17: a whole needs to find a way to make those

886
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:16,239
Speaker 17: connections on the deep balls, and I think it'll come

887
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 17: with Tom.

888
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:18,680
Speaker 3: You know, are you talking about the one where him

889
00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:21,839
Speaker 3: interping basically ran the same route? Like as weird as

890
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:25,359
Speaker 3: that looks, I'm sitting here thinking that works.

891
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 2: Right that time?

892
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:31,960
Speaker 3: It worked that time, your speedy guy turping it in front.

893
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:33,600
Speaker 3: And I was going to ask you about Turping too.

894
00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:36,799
Speaker 3: Do you feel like they don't use him as much here?

895
00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 3: I mean, he's a guy that they could take the

896
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:39,680
Speaker 3: top off.

897
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:43,200
Speaker 17: Yeah, listen, I think, honestly, I think they're using them

898
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:45,160
Speaker 17: more than I expected them to use them. I didn't

899
00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:47,359
Speaker 17: expect them to have this much to get this much

900
00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:50,080
Speaker 17: time because you have Brandon Cooks, Michael Gallup and Ceedee

901
00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:52,840
Speaker 17: lamb uh. You're looking at ferguson the hindershot. You already

902
00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:54,200
Speaker 17: got a lot of people who you're trying to get

903
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,279
Speaker 17: the ball to. And I think he played running back

904
00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:59,120
Speaker 17: in Week one. He's been getting jet sweeps. He's been

905
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:02,440
Speaker 17: catching balls out of backfield, I mean at the receiver position,

906
00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:05,360
Speaker 17: So I think he's actually getting a lot more attention

907
00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:08,759
Speaker 17: than he had been getting previously, So not surprised.

908
00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:10,360
Speaker 2: But we got enough weapons.

909
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:12,719
Speaker 17: We need to we need to maximize the weapons that

910
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:15,600
Speaker 17: we have with cooks Michael Gallup and Ceedee Lamb, because

911
00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:18,240
Speaker 17: I think you know we're we're at the upper echelona

912
00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:20,160
Speaker 17: of the league with talent at the wide receiver position.

913
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:22,479
Speaker 3: All right, we can get two more calls in before

914
00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:24,880
Speaker 3: I think we can wrap this thing up. Irwin and Denver.

915
00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:27,919
Speaker 9: I what's up, Hey, Good morning guys.

916
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:28,760
Speaker 2: How you doing morning?

917
00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,280
Speaker 4: Hey, this is a question for Danny.

918
00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:35,160
Speaker 18: Well, first off, thought I really enjoyed watching him on

919
00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:36,319
Speaker 18: Survivor watch it every year.

920
00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:37,560
Speaker 7: I thought it was awesome watching.

921
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:39,160
Speaker 4: Uh.

922
00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:41,960
Speaker 9: The question that I have for Danny McCrae is what

923
00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:44,160
Speaker 9: does it think about our linebacker?

924
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 8: I mean, obviously we're missing.

925
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:51,759
Speaker 9: Honestly, what do you think about what's going on with

926
00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:52,840
Speaker 9: our linebacker?

927
00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:53,759
Speaker 8: Thanks?

928
00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:58,200
Speaker 17: Uh, listen. I think our linebacker corps had a rough game.

929
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:03,640
Speaker 17: I think Arizona came out with a scheme that that

930
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 17: really confused our linebackers a little bit. They pulled a

931
00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:09,560
Speaker 17: lot of linemen from one side to the other, a

932
00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:11,880
Speaker 17: little bit of misdirection, and I think when you're a

933
00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:14,439
Speaker 17: step late at the linebacker position against a team that's

934
00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:17,399
Speaker 17: pulling guys and then blocking you with receivers and their

935
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:21,200
Speaker 17: officsive linemen are athletic. I think that that really plays

936
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:23,480
Speaker 17: against you, right, So you would see Damon Clark in

937
00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:25,400
Speaker 17: the situation to where he was a step behind and

938
00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:27,080
Speaker 17: all of a sudden, the officeive lineman was right on

939
00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:29,240
Speaker 17: the shoulder and he was getting sealed off. That happened

940
00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:30,799
Speaker 17: a few times and I just think that was a

941
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:31,359
Speaker 17: bad game.

942
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:33,440
Speaker 2: Dan Quinn.

943
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:35,840
Speaker 17: He is proven that he's going to go back to

944
00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:38,600
Speaker 17: the to the lab and he's gonna get these guys right.

945
00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:40,640
Speaker 17: And that's probably all they're going to be practicing on

946
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:42,440
Speaker 17: this week, because you know, Bill Belichick is gonna come

947
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:43,960
Speaker 17: in here and say, hey, what.

948
00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:46,600
Speaker 2: Did Arizona do to beat these guys? Oh, they pulled Lineman.

949
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:49,080
Speaker 17: You're gonna see lineman getting pulled from the sideline like

950
00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:52,239
Speaker 17: all game my bad. But you're gonna see him getting

951
00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:54,560
Speaker 17: pulled from the from the sideline until the Cowboys shoulder

952
00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:55,160
Speaker 17: they can stop it.

953
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:58,319
Speaker 3: I think what Damon Clark needs is this shirt, I

954
00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:04,120
Speaker 3: mean shit shirt back all right. Last caller of the show,

955

958
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:18,960
Speaker 5: I'm calling a lot and sometimes negative, but I want

959
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 5: to get something positive with all this negative craft going on. Yeah,

960
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:25,080
Speaker 5: if you always ask about our favorite Cowboy moments, I

961
00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:28,880
Speaker 5: date myself right here. My favorite Cowboy moment I was

962
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:33,880
Speaker 5: nine years old and we beat the Denver Crush or

963
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:36,600
Speaker 5: the Orange Crush in the Super Bowl. And I'm just

964
00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:39,400
Speaker 5: wondering if you and Danny can tell me your favorite

965
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:42,120
Speaker 5: memories of being Cowboy fans and I'll shut up and

966
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:44,479
Speaker 5: get off the air. Thank you so much for taking

967
00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:45,080

Speaker 2: I appreciate you awesome.

969
00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:50,160
Speaker 3: Thank you, Al. I appreciate that favorite moments. And as

970
00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:55,640
Speaker 3: as a fan, I mean it's kind of weird for you, right,

971
00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:57,760
Speaker 3: I mean because you were a player. So how about

972
00:43:57,760 --> 00:43:59,719
Speaker 3: how about we go there? I mean, favorite moment as

973
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:00,600
Speaker 3: a as a player.

974
00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:01,279
Speaker 2: Man.

975
00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:04,719
Speaker 17: You know, that's that's tough because for me, it's like

976
00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:06,680
Speaker 17: more of a personal moment of the fact that like

977
00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:10,719
Speaker 17: undrafted free agent came in from LSU, got to try

978
00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:12,719
Speaker 17: out for five thousand dollars and I thought that was

979
00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:14,239
Speaker 17: a lot and I would to spend and then all

980
00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:15,880
Speaker 17: of a sudden, Jody's like, hey, listen, I'm gonna do

981
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:17,479
Speaker 17: whatever I can to make sure you make this team.

982
00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:19,640
Speaker 17: You just have to perform, and then I make the team.

983
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:23,120
Speaker 17: So for me, cowboy moment is, Hey, I'm here as

984
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:25,520
Speaker 17: an undrafted free agent, make the team as a special

985
00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:27,719
Speaker 17: teams guy, and then I get the starting job and

986
00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:29,920
Speaker 17: I run out through that tunnel for the first time.

987
00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:32,000
Speaker 17: And that was probably the most exciting thing that I've

988
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:34,000
Speaker 17: been a part of because running out as a special

989
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:36,600
Speaker 17: team's guy with the entire team versus getting announced on

990
00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:38,600
Speaker 17: the big board, which your family taking pictures of it

991
00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:42,120
Speaker 17: is totally different. So for me personal but that's my

992
00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:43,520
Speaker 17: biggest Cowboys that's perfect.

993
00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:46,560
Speaker 3: I mean, can I tell a story on you. I mean,

994
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:49,799
Speaker 3: you're already already embarrassing me, so I mean, no, no,

995
00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:52,200
Speaker 3: it's not that bad, because I mean, I wouldn't expect

996
00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:56,040
Speaker 3: anything different. But like I remember interviewing you, you made

997
00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:59,120
Speaker 3: the team. You're wearing number forty, You're an undrafted player

998
00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:02,840
Speaker 3: from an SEC school playing special teams at number forty,

999
00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:05,040
Speaker 3: And I was like, you know then, I mean, it's

1000
00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:06,840
Speaker 3: a pretty big deal. You get to wear number forty,

1001
00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:09,600
Speaker 3: you know, a special teams guy. You hear the Cowboys

1002
00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:12,160
Speaker 3: and he was like, I don't know what you're talking about.

1003
00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:14,200
Speaker 3: I was like number forty, you know, like Bill Bates,

1004
00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:19,239
Speaker 3: I don't know. I was like, oh, okay, all right,

1005
00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:21,759
Speaker 3: well you know, of course not but I learned.

1006
00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:24,000
Speaker 2: You learned, but I learned. I learned, and now I know.

1007
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:27,040
Speaker 17: Bill Bates is great, very hard she was to feel,

1008
00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:29,400
Speaker 17: didn't quite do it, but it was an honor to

1009
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:31,319
Speaker 17: wear the forty and then have people say, hey, man,

1010
00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:32,399
Speaker 17: you're a special teams player.

1011
00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:34,080
Speaker 2: That reminds me of a Bill Bass type guy.

1012
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:37,120
Speaker 3: I think only three players in Cowboys history have led

1013
00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:39,759
Speaker 3: the team in tackles on special teams back to back years.

1014
00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:43,480
Speaker 3: Bill Bates, you and CJJ. CJ. Goodwin has done that.

1015
00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:46,640
Speaker 3: It's pretty pretty good company there for me. You know,

1016
00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:49,560
Speaker 3: for me, the best moments was probably just just like

1017
00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:53,400
Speaker 3: you know, when as a fan, just watching them, you know,

1018
00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:55,880
Speaker 3: go to the Super Bowl, you know, and and stuff

1019
00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:58,240
Speaker 3: like that, you know, getting getting back to those days.

1020
00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:00,440
Speaker 3: You know, I was in high school, but I mean

1021
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:03,200
Speaker 3: I just remember when they nineteen ninety one, they didn't

1022
00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:04,919
Speaker 3: win the Super Bowl that year. But when they beat

1023
00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:07,439
Speaker 3: the Eagles to actually, you know, they beat the Eagles

1024
00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:11,120
Speaker 3: up in Philadelphia punt return touchdown by Kelvin Martin, but

1025
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:14,120
Speaker 3: that was like they're back, you know, because as a fan,

1026
00:46:14,200 --> 00:46:16,880
Speaker 3: when you when you go through the one to fifteen,

1027
00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:19,440
Speaker 3: the three and thirteen seasons and all that, and you

1028
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:21,680
Speaker 3: finally get back to that as a fan, like, that's

1029
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:24,080
Speaker 3: what it's about. And so I just I just remember

1030
00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:26,200
Speaker 3: kind of feeling those moments, and I know that's what

1031
00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:28,200
Speaker 3: these fans are waiting for as well. That's why you

1032
00:46:28,239 --> 00:46:30,360
Speaker 3: go through it. That's why you go through this so

1033
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:31,839
Speaker 3: you can have moments like that.

1034
00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:33,520
Speaker 2: So is that why I herds so bad to watch

1035
00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:35,680
Speaker 2: us play late that against the Cardinals.

1036
00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:38,280
Speaker 17: Because you know, most fans who are watching were saying,

1037
00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:39,400
Speaker 17: oh man.

1038
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:42,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm scared to say it, but this looks like yeah.

1039
00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:43,600
Speaker 17: And then all of a sudden, you play the Cardinals,

1040
00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:45,560
Speaker 17: You're like, oh wait, hold on, wait, I remember these

1041
00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:47,399
Speaker 17: last twenty was it twenty six, twenty seven?

1042
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:49,239
Speaker 2: Short? Like I remember it, and I remember this.

1043
00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:51,759
Speaker 3: Is the same like this well, because because you try

1044
00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:53,600
Speaker 3: so hard to think this is going to be different,

1045
00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:55,239
Speaker 3: this is going to be different. But it's like, well,

1046
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:57,080
Speaker 3: this is the same old stuff. But think about it.

1047
00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:59,160
Speaker 3: If this is the same stuff as it's been, this

1048
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:01,360
Speaker 3: is a twelve and five football team that's getting to

1049
00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:03,200
Speaker 3: the getting to the playoffs and have it has a

1050
00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:03,799
Speaker 3: chance to win.

1051
00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:06,600
Speaker 2: I mean that's oh yeah, okay, if it's the same

1052
00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:07,360
Speaker 2: old stuff.

1053
00:47:07,080 --> 00:47:08,960
Speaker 3: Well that's what I'm saying. Like, like, I think everyone

1054
00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:11,080
Speaker 3: was just looking ahead, looking and thinking, oh, well, you

1055
00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:12,920
Speaker 3: know how they can do against the Niners, how they

1056
00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:16,840
Speaker 3: can do against Eagles. And you know you got reality.

1057
