00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 1: maybe a year. Let me ask a question at the

00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 1: wrong age. There are all those people out there, Can

Speaker 1: you get the camera that that isolated? Oh no, for

17
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,039
Speaker 1: all those people out there, just just take a while guess,

00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 1: Like I'm sure everybody's gonna guess. You're right there and

19
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,559
Speaker 1: that right where I said, like it's in that range.

20
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 1: Doesn't matter about the range, it's just like the price

21
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,479
Speaker 1: is right. You can't go over. You can't. I should.

22
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 1: I should have shot a little under just to be

23
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,920
Speaker 1: just to be safe. It's okay. Nick offended me worse

76
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 1: All right, let's talk some Cowboys football. Let's start off today.

77
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 1: We're gonna get to a lot of different things, getting

78
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 1: you guys ready for the Cowboys versus Giant says we

79
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 1: do every Friday. We'll talk about it in actives and injuries,

80
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 1: and then a little later in the show, Nick's gonna

81
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 1: take us back in time and we're gonna talk a

82
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 1: little bit about the twenty and ten season. The Cowboys

83
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 1: were one and seven. If you guys remember, during that season,

84
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 1: Wake followed, Phillips, ends up fired, and it began what

85
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 1: would later become a Emmy nominated Deep Blue called Sunday

86
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:35,479
Speaker 1: at four fifteen, where we talk about a very similar

87
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,920
Speaker 1: situation with the Giants are experiencing this week. Cowboys experienced

88
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 1: that back in twenty ten. Nick's gonna give us some

89
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 1: of the behind the scenes kind of details on what

90
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 1: happened that week, all except for one which I swear

91
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 1: if he even goes there, I'm gonna strangle him. But anyway,

92
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 1: we'll talk about that a little bit later in the show.

93
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 1: Let's first start with some injury updates. Yesterday, Cowboys had

94
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: three players that did not practice Lyall Collins, David Irving,

95
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 1: Orlando Skendrick. We know Skendrick is probably not playing. I

96
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 1: wouldn't even say probably at this point. I don't think

97
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: he's playing. He's not playing, um. But David Irving is

98
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 1: the one that still kind of interests me a little

99
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 1: bit because with the concussion, you kind of you kind

100
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 1: of wait and you see if if they kind of

101
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 1: are limited once you get to Thursday and the fact

102
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,159
Speaker 1: that he still was not practicing as a Thursday, Is

103
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 1: there a reason for concern for Cowboys fans that he

104
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 1: won't play? Absolutely depends on who you ask anyone else. Yeah,

105
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 1: and you ask the people that have followed this team,

106
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 1: like you know us, and we see what they do

107
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 1: in this situation like this, he would think he's probably

108
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 1: not playing. But if you ask to Marcus Lawrence, he's like,

109
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:40,280
Speaker 1: he's fine, that dude's playing. He'll be out there. And

110
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 1: then he said, like he had that concussion in the

111
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 1: first quarter, so he played through that. Turned camera's oh,

112
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 1: he's like, but Davis Dave, that's what he said. Davis Dave.

113
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 1: You don't always know what's going on with him. But

114
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 1: he's fine. He's he's kind of crazy anyway. So I

115
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 1: don't know if he means fine for like life, you know,

116
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:05,359
Speaker 1: for forever, or just like for this game. Yeah, that

117
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 1: Dave is Dave. Like that sets it up pretty well

118
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: for David Irving, Like he's he's a little crazy. You

119
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: said that here, fair that's I mean, Dave is Dave fair.

120
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:21,160
Speaker 1: It's I just if you're not participating by Thursday, that

121
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,479
Speaker 1: doesn't seem like a good sign to me. I would

122
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: I would say, yeah, there's costs for concern that he

123
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 1: won't play. I'm not saying he definitely won't play, but

124
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 1: I mean usually, like with a concussion, usually a guy

125
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 1: who's practicing by thursdays. Zach Martin really didn't miss any time.

126
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 1: So for him to be out for two of the

127
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 1: three practice days, I don't think that's good. The tough

128
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: part about it is even though you say a guy

129
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 1: like you know Lawrence says that, or even if the

130
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,839
Speaker 1: person himself says, in most instances when you're talking about injuries,

131
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,480
Speaker 1: you can sometimes trust that because the players like, man,

132
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 1: I'm playing, I'll figure it out. They'll give me a

133
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 1: shot whatever it takes on playing head injuries. Aren't that

134
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,839
Speaker 1: like that, right? It's not in the players. The player

135
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:02,600
Speaker 1: does not get to make that decision. There are other

136
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 1: people that make that decision for him. And so if

137
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,360
Speaker 1: he's not practicing as a Thursday, and certainly if he

138
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 1: doesn't practice the day, you would have to think at

139
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 1: that point that there's a serious risk that he's not

140
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 1: going to play this weekend, but we'll see, We'll see

141
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 1: how that all plays out. Lyle Collins, he's had his

142
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 1: back injury nowt for a few weeks, still did not

143
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 1: practice as of yesterday. Is this still just a matter

144
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 1: of give him as much time as you can or

145
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: do you think there's a little more here? Well, he

146
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 1: didn't practice last week either, so and he had no

147
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: it was that was just a full a full week.

148
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 1: This is even more of rest after the Thursday game,

149
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 1: and I guess it's just better for him to stay

150
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 1: off his feet. I don't know. I I think he's

151
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 1: gonna play. No, yeah, I think he's gonna play too.

152
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 1: I just don't know, but I think this is Yeah,

153
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 1: this has turned into let's just manage this the best

154
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: weekend type of situation. This is a give him and

155
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 1: he may not practice much the rest of the season

156
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 1: kind of thing. I think so yeah, Yeah, he might

157
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 1: be one that goes on ir before if they if

158
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 1: they lose, if they lose games and they're out of

159
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 1: the playoff race, I could see if he's gonna have

160
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: some kind of surgery. It just seems like he might.

161
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 1: Same with Tyrant too. On the back. Yeah, I just

162
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 1: hate when you start getting into situations where you're having

163
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 1: to have surgery on your back. Well, I mean I

164
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 1: hate when you have situations when you can't practice. Yeah,

165
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 1: you gotta get I mean, but sometimes with back injury,

166
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 1: it's a matter of give it time, time to heal,

167
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 1: time to rest, and then it's okay. But you know,

168
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 1: I don't and I'm jumping the gun. I don't know that.

169
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 1: I don't really don't know. I could see Tyrant more

170
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,320
Speaker 1: than La Lee because the Tyrant fought through this and

171
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 1: fought through this and then lall, this is kind of

172
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,080
Speaker 1: the first year we really noticed. Yeah, but that usually

173
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 1: doesn't heal. I mean, once you have a back problem,

174
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 1: you're gonna have a back problem the rest of your life.

175
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,680
Speaker 1: But but I think there's sometimes when the issue that

176
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 1: you're having with your back, it's it's one of those

177
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 1: situations where it doesn't have to be operated on. And

178
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,080
Speaker 1: I think that doesn't mean you're not gonna have chronic

179
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,719
Speaker 1: problems the rest of you your life. But I do

180
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 1: think there's sometimes when you won't have to necessarily have surgery.

181
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:06,839
Speaker 1: You give it time, it heals, and you're able to

182
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:08,839
Speaker 1: get back to doing whatever you were doing, and then

183
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 1: there is the process. There's always the possibility going from

184
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 1: there the year that it might flare back up, right,

185
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 1: And so I don't know. I just when you start

186
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:19,840
Speaker 1: talking about back surgery, really back injuries for guys that

187
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 1: are at their level of their career, that does concern

188
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 1: I think about Troy Aikman, actually Achman and like ninety

189
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,839
Speaker 1: three or so, he had some back issues, had to

190
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 1: take court his own shots and stuff, and he played

191
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,079
Speaker 1: eight nine more years, you know. So it doesn't mean

192
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,559
Speaker 1: he wasn't hurting him at r but you know, right,

193
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 1: and still you know, he fought through it for several

194
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 1: years too. I would guess that they'll be I mean,

195
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 1: they'll be managing this for the rest of the year

196
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:49,559
Speaker 1: with Lyle. That's that's the upshot. Okay, how about the

197
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,320
Speaker 1: the guys that were limited in practice yesterday, any of them,

198
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 1: uh stick out as as potentially not being able to

199
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,040
Speaker 1: play at Bryce Butler with a foot injury. Malie Collins

200
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 1: has been kind limited for a while now with a

201
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 1: foot injury. Justin Durant, with this concussion, he goes back

202
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 1: to limit it, that should be a good sign for him.

203
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 1: Sean Lee hamstring, we think he's gonna play, and then

204
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 1: Tyren Smith again with the back. What do you think

205
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 1: of those guys? And when I think of Durant, I

206
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,320
Speaker 1: think of Sean Lee coming back and and Hitchens, and

207
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 1: they really haven't had all of those guys active. So

208
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,560
Speaker 1: with him coming back from a concussion, I would think

209
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:27,240
Speaker 1: he would be your guy that would be an actor

210
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 1: of this game. I don't march Lillard two or him

211
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,440
Speaker 1: along with him, him first and then march Lillard if

212
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 1: you think if you need you know how. I don't

213
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 1: think Durant even wore a helmet to practice yesterday, Like

214
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,440
Speaker 1: he was out there running around and he wore a jersey,

215
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:43,439
Speaker 1: but he didn't even have a helmet on. Like I

216
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 1: think they're just so he wasn't He wasn't taking part

217
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 1: in that. You're not saying he was out there with

218
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:49,800
Speaker 1: the rest of the team practicing and they got on

219
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 1: helmets and he doesn't have on a helmet. Well theoretically yeah,

220
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:54,640
Speaker 1: like he was out on the field without a helmet on,

221
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: but he wasn't taking part of all the same stuff.

222
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:58,640
Speaker 1: They didn't send him out there with a helmet on.

223
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 1: You need a helmet. He was he was very limited

224
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 1: in what he was doing at it, I believe got it.

225
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 1: So that's all what you and that that you put

226
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,320
Speaker 1: Sean Lee and Anthony Hitchins out there together, I think,

227
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,080
Speaker 1: I mean, how many games has it been? How many

228
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 1: games have they had with the two of them this season?

229
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 1: Is that it? No? No, Hitchins wasn't even back for

230
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 1: Dinny it would have been um San Francisco. The three

231
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,320
Speaker 1: game winning streak. San Francisco washed both of them during

232
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 1: address it Yeah. Yeah? And then what was the third game?

233
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,719
Speaker 1: I'm Washington? What was the second game? Washington? Was a

234
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 1: second game than Kansas City? Kansas City? Sorry? Yeah? And

235
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 1: then Lee got hurt in Atlanta. So there're three No,

236
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 1: when those two guys are playing, all right? So he

237
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,560
Speaker 1: getting back and you go on a five game win streak. Awesome.

238
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I think I think that makes a really

239
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 1: big difference this week. Maybe not as much as others

240
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,560
Speaker 1: because the Giants are really bad on offense, but you see,

241
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,840
Speaker 1: I mean they're one in five in games when they

242
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:06,559
Speaker 1: don't have lead in five and one in games when

243
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 1: they do. And then I you know, Hitchins has had

244
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 1: an outstanding season. He's got he's got sixty tackles, even

245
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,440
Speaker 1: though he didn't play for the first time until what

246
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,720
Speaker 1: Green Bay. Like, he's playing really, really well. He had

247
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 1: probably the game of his career last week, one of

248
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:22,560
Speaker 1: them at least. Let me ask you a big question

249
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: right now, if you had to make a decision on him,

250
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 1: are you trying to resign him? Yes, But it's hard

251
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 1: for me to specify because, like I couldn't tell you

252
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 1: what his money is. Yeah, Like I don't know what

253
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:38,679
Speaker 1: type of price he can command. I don't so, but

254
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 1: I'm like, you look at a guy Barry Church did

255
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 1: it longer. But I think in terms of like their

256
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 1: skill set and their talent level, it's probably similar. Like

257
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 1: you know, we had that argument in the offseason, like

258
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 1: not a Pro Bowl player, but probably about as good

259
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 1: as you can be without being a Pro Bowl player,

260
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:58,080
Speaker 1: Which those kind of guys are valuable if you got

261
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 1: a Pro Bowl players with them, right point. Yeah, I mean,

262
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 1: if you got him with Lee, that's a heck of

263
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,319
Speaker 1: a player to pair with Lee, right I would love

264
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: to sign Anthony Hitchins to a deal that paid him

265
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:11,559
Speaker 1: like four or five million dollars a year. Yeah, I

266
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 1: don't know if that's you think if you just don't

267
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 1: know if the market's gonna say that, Yeah, it's free

268
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 1: like it's it's like the draft, Like all it takes

269
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:20,439
Speaker 1: is one team to decide that you're worth this amount

270
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 1: of money in the whole churches. Yeah, exactly. So I

271
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 1: would love to have him back for the right price,

272
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 1: that's all. But I mean, I don't know what that

273
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 1: price is going to be, and I doubt I doubt

274
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 1: they do one hundred percent either, you know, because he's

275
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 1: one of those players that he's got to fit this scheme,

276
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 1: and you know, he's really tough. Um. I remember when

277
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,319
Speaker 1: when they drafted him in the fourth round. There was

278
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 1: a lot of people at that point thinking, God, that's

279
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 1: that's too high for him. I don't have him anywhere

280
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 1: on my sheets and all this stuff, And but Marion

281
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,320
Speaker 1: Elly's like, he fits what I what we do. I

282
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 1: love his toughness, I love the way he reacts. And

283
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 1: there's gonna be some teams that maybe think that way.

284
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,200
Speaker 1: I don't know why. I keep thinking Pittsburgh would be

285
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:01,560
Speaker 1: a good spot for him, but they don't necessarily pay

286
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,960
Speaker 1: a lot. They also liked their linebackers to blitz right

287
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 1: from all over, even the middle linebackers. I don't know

288
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:10,560
Speaker 1: if that's something he's own here that he does particularly well.

289
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 1: I think he's a three four inside linebacker myself. Yeah,

290
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:16,240
Speaker 1: that's what I that's what I would play him. If

291
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,160
Speaker 1: I were him, I'd go to a three four. When

292
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 1: he played middle linebacker, he racked up a ton of tackles.

293
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 1: I think he would be pretty good there. He can

294
00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 1: do anything. He can all played all three spots here

295
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 1: and done pretty well. But you know, I would, I

296
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,880
Speaker 1: would sign him. I would try to sign him mainly

297
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 1: because I've got two other linebackers that are just hard

298
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 1: to trust right now. From a from health, Does he

299
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 1: not fall in that same category a little bit? Really? Not? Really?

300
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,440
Speaker 1: He this has really been I mean only his only

301
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 1: games he's ever missed is this year. Yes, but but

302
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 1: he's played injured. Yes, he has played injured a lot.

303
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 1: And and I think for him, I learned the hard

304
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:55,720
Speaker 1: way because I talked to him about injuries and he

305
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 1: walked through all that. He was like, I never missed

306
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 1: the game of my career. Like right, yeah, you haven't

307
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 1: missed a game in your careers? Back talking like I

308
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 1: was just kind of get out of this, like yeah,

309
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: it was bad. It was he was serious. I mean,

310
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 1: he was really nice about it, but he was like, yeah,

311
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 1: you know, I've never missed a game, so I don't

312
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: know about the injury label really. I mean practice, you know,

313
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 1: he missed practices and it's hot in here. That's gonna

314
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 1: be a tough one because between Lawrence and Irving you

315
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 1: have more prominent contract situations, and then Zach Martin is

316
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 1: another one. So he's like, I mean, he's a little

317
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 1: ways down your list of priorities probably, which again, they

318
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 1: I bet they would love to have him back, but

319
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 1: I don't know how much money they want to pay

320
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 1: him or how much they can afford to pay him

321
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 1: with all the other business they've got attend to. And

322
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 1: I think it's still is going to bend to depend

323
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 1: a great deal on what do they think of Jalen

324
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 1: Smith and how much has he grown this season from

325
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,680
Speaker 1: the standpoint of getting better from that injury. If they

326
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 1: feel like he's ready to take on a full load

327
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 1: next year, then it's hard to go and pay Hitchens

328
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,280
Speaker 1: four or five million dollars a year. And you got

329
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: lee in, you know, because they're they're nickel most of

330
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 1: the time, right, Yeah, don't. Sorry, go ahead, Well, I

331
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 1: was just saying they they kind of drafted this way.

332
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,720
Speaker 1: You know that they drafted Damien Wilson. He Damien Wilson

333
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 1: is supposed to be playing at this point, you know. Yeah,

334
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 1: I'm just saying he's just but he's not right, and

335
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 1: they've had injuries he's had. There have been plenty of

336
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 1: opportunities for them to want to throw, for them to

337
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 1: throw him in there, and they just haven't. Between Shaun

338
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 1: Lee being thirty one thirty two and having another injury

339
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 1: battled season and Jalen Smith being the great unknown, still

340
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:39,840
Speaker 1: just don't think you can go in the next season

341
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:43,240
Speaker 1: without spending some sort of resource at the linebacker position. Yeah,

342
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,120
Speaker 1: I agree with that, whether you want to sign Anthony

343
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 1: Hitchins or use a draft pick one way or the other.

344
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 1: And it sucks because maybe it'll wind up being redundant,

345
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 1: like maybe Sean Lee and Jayalen Smith are both Pro

346
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,520
Speaker 1: Bowlers next year. But we can't afford to just hope

347
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:57,640
Speaker 1: that that's the case, because then you wind up in

348
00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 1: a situation where if you don't have one or both

349
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,560
Speaker 1: of them, your defense falls apart, which I hadn't seen

350
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 1: this year in that kind of situation, I think I

351
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 1: would opt for the draft pick just because again that

352
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,399
Speaker 1: means that he's still developing while those two and hopefully

353
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 1: those two are ready to play. But you got this

354
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,120
Speaker 1: guy that's kind of coming up and developing while those

355
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 1: two are playing, and if they get hurt, then he's

356
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,159
Speaker 1: got to develop a lot faster. But I think I

357
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 1: might optical that where versus paying, because once you pay

358
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 1: the contract, you've paid the contract. I think I agree

359
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 1: with you, and that's what I mean. There's a big

360
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 1: caveat on that, which I think the world of Anthony

361
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 1: Hitchens is just one of those things where I don't

362
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,399
Speaker 1: know if the money makes sense. And I think I

363
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 1: think for some team out there that would pay him

364
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,960
Speaker 1: probably what he's worth, did get a really great player

365
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:40,800
Speaker 1: for the money that he's worth. I just don't know

366
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:42,879
Speaker 1: if that fits for what the Cowboys currently have and

367
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:44,959
Speaker 1: what they're trying to do right now. I will say

368
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: I've said all this same stuff about Terrence Williams last year,

369
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,359
Speaker 1: and he wound up back here for much less than

370
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 1: I thought it would have taken to get him. So yeah,

371
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 1: but we none of us expect the Church to get

372
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,239
Speaker 1: the deal he got, So it goes both ways, right.

373
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 1: It's frustrating how hard it is to predict the free

374
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,879
Speaker 1: agent mark because it's important and fans want to know

375
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 1: about it, and it's you know, that's how you figure

376
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,160
Speaker 1: out what your team's gonna look like. But it's it's

377
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:09,440
Speaker 1: almost unpredictable. Terrence Williams got a lot less than all

378
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:13,880
Speaker 1: of us expected. Yeah, but he's still getting more than

379
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:18,440
Speaker 1: I think he's producing right now, there's no doubt. Yeah,

380
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,520
Speaker 1: no doubt. That was a severe discount, and it still

381
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 1: looks like a bad contract at this point. I mean, yeah,

382
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 1: right now, No, I mean not get your point. He's

383
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:29,920
Speaker 1: not wrong, it's just that when you put it that way,

384
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, I think you're getting a great deal. Yeah,

385
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 1: all right, let's take our first break. When we come back,

386
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 1: we'll quickly I'll run through our inactives list, and then

Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys go way back. They belonged together, like Texas

414
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:56,920
Speaker 1: and football, Silver and Blue shotgun formations and Hail Mary's.

415
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,399
Speaker 1: Having a Cowboys football party without Doctor Pepper it's like

416
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:04,800
Speaker 1: having Thanksgiving without the Cowboys. Basically, we wouldn't recommend it.

417

432
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 1: second segment of the Break Life from the SWBC Mortgage studios.

433
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,919
Speaker 1: At the staff, let's quickly run through the inactives. I

434
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: think we all agree that our Lando Scandrick will be inactive.

435
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 1: I would assume we all agree on guys like Dayton Jones,

436
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:10,720
Speaker 1: Blake Darwin, possibly Trey Williams. Um I would say definitely

437
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 1: try okay, Tray Williams. So you're at you're at four there.

438
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:15,199
Speaker 1: I think there are a few that are kind of

439
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,879
Speaker 1: basically there. There'll be one of two guys. Um. I

440
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,439
Speaker 1: would assume Chas Green and Lyle Collins. One of the

441
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 1: two of them will be inactive. Everybody agree with that? Sure? Nick? No, Now,

442
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:30,200
Speaker 1: with two guys you would keep, you would keep both

443
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:34,639
Speaker 1: of them may be active. So let's okay, let's defer

444
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 1: that decision. UM. The next one I would think about

445
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:41,080
Speaker 1: would be either David Irving. And if David Irving is inactive,

446
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 1: would you would you make Daniel Ross actis? Yes? Okay,

447
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,480
Speaker 1: So on the one of the two of them we

448
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 1: agree will be inactive. Um, and then you're basically left

449
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 1: with a decision. You need two more spots. You got

450
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:58,720
Speaker 1: justin March Lillard who if you feel sorry about it, Durant,

451
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:01,919
Speaker 1: I did not. Duran's still out there, So would you

452
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 1: sit both of them? So I guess your option is

453
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:06,920
Speaker 1: you can either sit both of them, or you can

454
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:10,680
Speaker 1: sit one of them and whoever, if Lyle is inactive,

455
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 1: he's the other one. Or if he's active, then Chatz

456
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 1: is the other one. Which way would get Bryce Butler here?

457
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,320
Speaker 1: Butler was put on the injury report there. It's a

458
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 1: deep position. You know, they don't get all those guys

459
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:25,359
Speaker 1: in the game. Very limited. He's been limited lately. This

460
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:27,879
Speaker 1: is not going to be a huge passing game. I

461
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 1: wouldn't think so wouldn't surprise me at all. If Butler's

462
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:33,720
Speaker 1: the guy that's inactive and Noah Brown plays and they

463
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 1: go with five. I mean, I don't know that. I'm

464
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 1: just kind of throwing in there. Let's let's don't throw

465
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,400
Speaker 1: that part out. If you're thinking, man, I got two

466
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,440
Speaker 1: tackles at our back injuries. You know what, I'd rather

467
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 1: just keep Chatz and Byron Bell both active. I think

468
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,240
Speaker 1: I'd keep Bryce Butler inactive this week. Just depends on

469
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,640
Speaker 1: how serious it is. What did they do last week

470
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 1: at tackle? As far as an active they was Chatz inactive?

471
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 1: Last week. I believe so I think he was, yeah,

472
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,639
Speaker 1: because it seems like it seems like to me, even

473
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 1: though Lyles had this injury now for a little bit,

474
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 1: it seems like they've been okay with the idea that

475
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,000
Speaker 1: when they're going out, they're rolling with them and they're

476
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,639
Speaker 1: gonna just have one swing tackle. They haven't seemed like

477
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:15,960
Speaker 1: and I wouldn't assume it's getting worse now. You may

478
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,159
Speaker 1: know more about that than I do, but it seems

479
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,320
Speaker 1: like it's the same injury, and they've been okay these

480
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:24,159
Speaker 1: past weeks saying, hey, we're rolling with three and so

481
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,120
Speaker 1: I don't know if they would change that. This inactive

482
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 1: thing is tough every week because we really don't know

483
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 1: what they're doing with the trainers and stuff like that.

484
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 1: The athletic trainers. Sorry, it's important, it's an athletic trainer.

485
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:41,640
Speaker 1: It is antic trainers getting ready. I wouldn't be surprised

486
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:46,120
Speaker 1: by either of those if Bryce can't go or I don't,

487
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:48,400
Speaker 1: I think you can afford to sit those two linebackers

488
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:50,199
Speaker 1: if you need to, especial I mean, with Sean and

489
00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:53,880
Speaker 1: Hitchens both being healthy right now, they feel good about

490
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,120
Speaker 1: Sean's hamstring that they don't think this is something that's

491
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:59,359
Speaker 1: gonna cry up on him during the game become a problem.

492
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,880
Speaker 1: I would hope not. I mean, he has had two

493
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,600
Speaker 1: this year. But I hope if they cleared him to play,

494
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 1: I hope that they feel good that. I mean, he's

495
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:10,320
Speaker 1: had plenty of rest. Yeah, I mean it's been it's

496
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: been November twelfth, so it's been basically a month. All right, Um,

497
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 1: let's go ahead and move on. Let's talk about this, uh, this,

498
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:23,159
Speaker 1: this this team. Back in twenty ten, they were facing

499
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 1: a very similar situation to what the Giants are facing

500
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:29,360
Speaker 1: right now. They were one in seven. Um Wade Phillips

501
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,160
Speaker 1: was the head coach, actually one in six and went

502
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,720
Speaker 1: to Green Bay and just got blasting. Green Bay moved

503
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:38,199
Speaker 1: to one in seven. Their head coach gets fired. Um,

504
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 1: and then there was a week of preparation heading into

505
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 1: a game against the New York Giants. Nick tell us

506
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,360
Speaker 1: about that week and the parallels maybe between that week

507
00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:49,360
Speaker 1: and what maybe the Giants are going through now. Well,

508
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 1: when you when you talk about, like you said, you

509
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 1: talk about the Giants that that were coming off a

510
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:54,920
Speaker 1: really good team, you know, a really good season last

511
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,879
Speaker 1: year and then high expectations and the same for the

512
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:01,920
Speaker 1: Cowboys and finally in a playoff game in oh nine.

513
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 1: You know, they had the stadium. Twenty ten is gonna

514
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 1: be a great year, and it just wasn't. And yeah,

515
00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:09,840
Speaker 1: Tony Romo got hurt in week five, but the bottom

516
00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:12,960
Speaker 1: was already dropping out for that team. Um, and it

517
00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 1: just it's just snowballed, you know. And and Wade Phillips

518
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 1: had done a good job with this team. But then

519
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:20,840
Speaker 1: you know, it's like you lose, keep losing games. You

520
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,159
Speaker 1: can't justify it anymore. And it's the same happened with

521
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 1: the Giants. So they fired Wade after a really horrible

522
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,960
Speaker 1: game against the Packers on Sunday night football. Everybody's watching

523
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,680
Speaker 1: forty five seven. You lose. I remember, I'm telling you

524
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 1: in the press box in Green Bay, I'm gonna have

525
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,680
Speaker 1: to write this column that Wade Phillips needs to be fired.

526
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,119
Speaker 1: And I'm sitting in like, you know, twenty four C

527
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 1: and he's in one A. I think you got to

528
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:47,239
Speaker 1: come back that game, yeah yeah, And then you know,

529
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:50,080
Speaker 1: and then what happened overnight was pretty fun for some

530
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:52,919
Speaker 1: and then that whole week was just crazy. It was

531
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:55,159
Speaker 1: just a crazy week because he got fired on Monday,

532
00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 1: and you know, all hell broke loose in the locker room.

533
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 1: There was some fights going on. I'm what was going on.

534
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 1: Jason Garrett gets announced as a head coach. He comes

535
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 1: in and they we know about middle of the day,

536
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 1: about noon or one o'clock he's going to be the

537
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:13,639
Speaker 1: head coach. Okay, everyone had speculated this. He didn't do

538
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,159
Speaker 1: a press conference still six o'clock and you go up

539
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 1: there and you know, you see the podium. There was

540
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 1: no podium until right there. I didn't know where they got.

541
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:22,919
Speaker 1: There was a table. There was a table, he said there.

542
00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:26,320
Speaker 1: Wade Phillip set there, Bill Parcel sat there, Campo, I

543
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:30,480
Speaker 1: think everyone set there. Garrett comes in and there's a podium,

544
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 1: and you just knew right then and there that things

545
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,119
Speaker 1: were different. You know, he kept us there until night.

546
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,160
Speaker 1: It's the first night press conference that we've ever had

547
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,320
Speaker 1: of Valley Ranch. And he said the term four fifteen

548
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,639
Speaker 1: six times. I believe that whole week, maybe three or

549
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:47,439
Speaker 1: four in that first press conference. You know, no one

550
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 1: cares about War one and seven. The giants don't care,

551
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:51,639
Speaker 1: but you know, we'll be ready to play at seventy

552
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,360
Speaker 1: at four fifteen he kept saying it, kept reiterating, we'll

553
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,359
Speaker 1: be ready at four fifteen. And they were. You know,

554
00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,440
Speaker 1: that's the thing. They played their best football. And there's

555
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,840
Speaker 1: a lot more going on there too. Mary and Barber

556
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 1: comes in wearing jeans on to the to the flight.

557
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:10,640
Speaker 1: Marian Barber if you remember, you know he and you

558
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,919
Speaker 1: you remember this, he could dress I mean he was

559
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,400
Speaker 1: he would have all these awesome dapper suits and all that.

560
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,159
Speaker 1: But Jason Garrett was the head coach. He wore jeans.

561
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,399
Speaker 1: And after after Jason made it clear, yeah, the dress

562
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:25,159
Speaker 1: code was suit and tie exactly. Yeah, yeah, that's right,

563
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 1: because suit and tie hadn't always been kind of they've

564
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,760
Speaker 1: been kind of loose, yeah, underweight. So he made it,

565
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 1: you know. And then you know, so Marion was making

566
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 1: a statement and then the Cowboys made a statement too

567
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 1: by not starting him in the game. Uh, John Kitton

568
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,600
Speaker 1: is the quarterback. They go down, they they they have

569
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 1: the lead, they're playing well, and they're about to lose

570
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:45,800
Speaker 1: the lead until Brian McCann, rookie cornerback, goes one hundred

571
00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 1: and one yard interception return takes it back for a touchdown.

572
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,520
Speaker 1: It's like, oh my god, they may do this, then

573
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:54,760
Speaker 1: we'll see what years is twenty ten. So then we're

574
00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:57,480
Speaker 1: sitting in the press box and we're watching the game.

575
00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:01,200
Speaker 1: Third quarter, lights go out the whole place for about

576
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:04,200
Speaker 1: five seconds. Think about that, and I remember we're in

577
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 1: New York. This is post nine to eleven, and all

578
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,520
Speaker 1: the lights in the stadium go dark. I mean it's

579
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:15,760
Speaker 1: only like five seconds, but it feels a lot longer. Forever. Yeah,

580
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 1: this that the old meadowlands are met is meant life.

581
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,400
Speaker 1: This is like the first or second year of met life. Okay,

582
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 1: so then most of them come back on, but there's

583
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 1: a there's a patch that didn't come back on, so

584
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 1: it's still a little bit dark. I know that they

585
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: decided to play the game and keep playing with it

586
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,720
Speaker 1: with that lights the way they were. The Cowboys scored

587
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 1: another touchdown right off the bat, and but the funny

588
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:40,600
Speaker 1: thing was alan ball safety for them when when the

589
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 1: lights goes. Now a reality star, by the way, is

590
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:46,280
Speaker 1: he he's on? Like what is that show called Survivor?

591
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 1: Oh okay, not the former not the first former Cowboy

592
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,560
Speaker 1: to be on that. Anyways, he hits the deck like

593
00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 1: he didn't he know what was going on, Like he

594
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 1: he hits the deck. He's thinking, you know, this is

595
00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 1: gonna be a you know what is bomb? No one knows,

596
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 1: and all the players were laughing at him, all the players.

597
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:08,479
Speaker 1: He's still kind of laying round. And at the end

598
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 1: of the game, the Giants are driving trying to get

599
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,200
Speaker 1: back in the game, Alan Ball picks off the pass

600
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:15,480
Speaker 1: and kind of seals the game, and so a big

601
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 1: win for you know, obviously for Jason Garrett. He's from

602
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 1: New Jersey, played for the Giants, played for the Cowboys,

603
00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:23,240
Speaker 1: of course his first game. And you know, we did

604
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,600
Speaker 1: that documentary on it. It's Sunday at four fifteen is

605
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 1: the title of it for Deep Blue. And what was

606
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 1: interesting to me was that he's waited his whole life

607
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 1: to be a head coach. Every every assistant coach wants

608
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 1: to be a head coach, obviously, or they should. And

609
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 1: he waited. He waited way to turn down a couple

610
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,240
Speaker 1: of jobs a couple of times, and then when his

611
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 1: moment arrived, boom, he was ready. And you know, Brian

612
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 1: brought us to tye some funny stories about it. You know,

613
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 1: he's got his own version, but but you know, he did.

614
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,960
Speaker 1: He was ready to go. He was ready something he'd

615
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,120
Speaker 1: been waiting his whole life for, and all the things

616
00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:59,480
Speaker 1: you hear and see today he was throwing out in

617
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:01,760
Speaker 1: that first week. That's what's kind of amazing about it.

618
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:03,840
Speaker 1: So they talk about consistency, and we talked about it

619
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:07,000
Speaker 1: is a thin line between consistency and stubbornness. But he

620
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:10,880
Speaker 1: is extremely consistent, Like his message has been the same

621
00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 1: message from the moment he took over and walked in

622
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 1: there to have that first meeting with the players to

623
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 1: this very day. He still says the exact same things

624
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 1: and reiterates the exact same understatement of your career like that,

625
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 1: he's consistent. Yeah, did he wear did he wear it?

626
00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 1: By day? I think he did. Did he wear blue sweats?

627
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,040
Speaker 1: I feel like you did. I want to say he

628
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:33,400
Speaker 1: had on blue sweats. It's in the documentary, Like, like

629
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 1: we we have that press conference is very first one

630
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:40,120
Speaker 1: I think he is. I've only ever seen Jason Garrett

631
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 1: wearing blue sweats or a three piece like this one. Yeah,

632
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 1: it doesn't seem that long ago to me and I

633
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:51,320
Speaker 1: just we're talking about probably college and high school for

634
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 1: these two. Yeah, I was. That was my senior year

635
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 1: of college. I remember probably your senior year in high school.

636
00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:02,000
Speaker 1: High school. I came. We just esaplised, she's twenty five.

637
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 1: It's true on the air though, Oh no, you're right,

638
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 1: it's okay. Yeah, it's okay for you guys, of course

639
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 1: it is. Yeah. I got home from work that I remember.

640
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 1: I got home from work on that Sunday night and

641
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, let me go to

642
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys dot Com. No. I just was like, you

643
00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 1: you brought the story? Sorry? Sorry, great? Can I tell

644
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,680
Speaker 1: the story? Come on, sure, tell the story. I wasn't

645
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,560
Speaker 1: even here. I've heard this whole thing like eighteen times.

646
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 1: We've we've told the story on the air. It's an

647
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 1: old story. Go ahead. Yeah, that same night that Nick

648
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,560
Speaker 1: wrote that column and everybody knew that Wade Phillips was

649
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 1: about to get fired. Y'all let the domain name run out, ya, y'all.

650
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:45,680
Speaker 1: I like how you say, y'all, I wasn't here as

651
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 1: an organ as though, as though if you were here,

652
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,400
Speaker 1: tell the story. We get back to Green, We get

653
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,280
Speaker 1: back to Dallas, what two three in the morning, yeah,

654
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 1: something like that, And you know, and I'm getting ready

655
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 1: for bed, and I literally turn over to get into

656
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 1: the bed and my phone starts ringing, and I'm looking

657
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 1: at the phone and I'm like, I don't recognize this number.

658
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 1: That can't be good this late at night. Pick up

659
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:11,960
Speaker 1: the phone and it's our domain company, and I mean sorry,

660
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:15,479
Speaker 1: it's our hosting company that basically is saying, hey, by

661
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:17,080
Speaker 1: the way, it looks like we're getting a lot of

662
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:20,440
Speaker 1: alerts saying your website is down, and your website is

663
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:23,800
Speaker 1: down because the domain expired. And I'm like, surely that

664
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:27,800
Speaker 1: can't be the case, but it certainly was. And I

665
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 1: ran to my computer and found out that it was.

666
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 1: It was definitely expired, grab my credit card, and on

667
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 1: the spot purchased Dallas cowboys dot com domain, which tells

668
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 1: you that if if I would not have done that

669
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 1: and someone else would have been available, Dallas cowboys dot

670
00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 1: com could have been owned by somebody else, right, yes, yeah, yeah,

671
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 1: So that was a rough couple of days there, because

672
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,479
Speaker 1: the thing that most people don't probably realize is that

673
00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:56,280
Speaker 1: once something like that happens, like the Internet is just

674
00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 1: this web of a bunch of different servers around the

675
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,640
Speaker 1: world that all connect are all connected to each other,

676
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 1: that that says when you put in this domain, this

677
00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:07,720
Speaker 1: is what should show up right, it points you to

678
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 1: another server where the information is. Well. The problem is

679
00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:14,160
Speaker 1: once that gets wiped out, then it takes like twenty four,

680
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:17,960
Speaker 1: sometimes forty eight, sometimes seventy two hours for that to repopulate.

681
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:21,200
Speaker 1: And so for the next day, two days, three days,

682
00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:23,840
Speaker 1: there are people that are hitting Dallas Cowboys dot com

683
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:26,239
Speaker 1: and all they're getting is just a picture of some

684
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:30,080
Speaker 1: little girls pulling soccer, and soccer says this domain, and

685
00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:33,680
Speaker 1: it's expired. And then not only that, but then the

686
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 1: column that I wrote the Dallas Morning News picked up

687
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,640
Speaker 1: the column and said even the Cowboys' own staff rider

688
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 1: is saying this, so that that they're sending people to

689
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:44,840
Speaker 1: Dallas cowbuy right. And then our site is down. So

690
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:46,640
Speaker 1: it's like, oh my god, did they just turn the

691
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:48,680
Speaker 1: site off? Is that how bad it is? Jerry got

692
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:50,600
Speaker 1: so mad at Nick that he just said, kill the whole.

693
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:53,840
Speaker 1: That could have happened in you know, April or May

694
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:56,200
Speaker 1: what anything, But it happened right after the worst loss

695
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 1: of the season and you're about to have a coaching change. Yeah, someone,

696
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:04,280
Speaker 1: it's so weird. But the show The League on FX,

697
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:06,720
Speaker 1: I guess it was a fantasy football show. They came

698
00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:10,200
Speaker 1: to training camp two hours later. Maybe yeah, a few

699
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:13,520
Speaker 1: years later, and they filmed an episode where that happened,

700
00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 1: where they basically somebody just happened up on the domain

701
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:19,160
Speaker 1: and bought it, and then they were negotiating with Jerry,

702
00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:21,480
Speaker 1: and so they actually had Jerry on the episode negotiating

703
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,560
Speaker 1: to buy it back. Everyone thought it was funny, but

704
00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:25,759
Speaker 1: it was so funny. There was funny. It was way

705
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:29,320
Speaker 1: too soon, but it is. And in the documentary Sunday

706
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:31,359
Speaker 1: at four fifteen, it's not in there. No, we didn't

707
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:32,640
Speaker 1: need to put that in. It's not a part of

708
00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 1: the story. Is It's really not the story. There was

709
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:38,440
Speaker 1: way more important and interesting things had happened that week.

710
00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:40,200
Speaker 1: You know what was funny? Did you go to giants

711
00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:44,239
Speaker 1: dot com on Monday? Good point, good point. I'm sure

712
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 1: it was fun all right. It was a fresh start

713
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 1: in every single aspect. There you go. We had to

714
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 1: even get rid of the old. The hell of a

715
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:55,640
Speaker 1: spend right there, Garrett, Garrett, you know was the best.

00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:31,359
Speaker 1: with If you want to hang it from your rear view,

790
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:34,480
Speaker 1: I guess you can. Was there a little awkward? I tried.

791
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,320
Speaker 1: I tried to figure out, you know, one of Dave's

792
00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:39,319
Speaker 1: favorite words. I was trying to figure out how to

793
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:42,080
Speaker 1: get the word donk in there, but I donk donk

794
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:46,640
Speaker 1: But I didn't, so referring to you know, I definitely

795
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:48,719
Speaker 1: could have put the booty in here somehow, Yeah you

796
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:55,280
Speaker 1: could didn't. Oh well, maybe Tommy John for your birthday Amber, No, Derek,

797
00:38:55,560 --> 00:39:04,200
Speaker 1: but go on, all right, again's the best? That's not

798
00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:06,880
Speaker 1: even that can't even be in like the front page

799
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:08,800
Speaker 1: of the of the way. He had to like find

800
00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:10,920
Speaker 1: that one. Douglas put it on the front page. I'm

801
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:14,680
Speaker 1: not where he knew it was coming was coming. I

802
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:19,520
Speaker 1: think Douglas uses it more than I have no idea.

803
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 1: I don't even know. I want to say, you were

804
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:26,759
Speaker 1: like talking about an offensive lineman or something, you know,

805
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:31,040
Speaker 1: probably some probably not probably like a quarterback or a

806
00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:35,320
Speaker 1: wide receiver somebody. Yeah, definitely a wide receiver. I wish,

807
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:38,200
Speaker 1: I wish I knew. We will move on. Um, let's

808
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:39,560
Speaker 1: go to the phone line. We got a call from

809
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:45,719
Speaker 1: Jordan and Florida. Jordan, what's up, Hey, what's going on? Guys? Hey,

810
00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:48,400
Speaker 1: I'm a first time caller, a long time listener, So

811
00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 1: thank you for I listen to you guys every day

812
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:55,040
Speaker 1: and I definitely appreciate what y'all do. We appreciate you you.

813
00:39:55,880 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 1: Uh So, my first question would be about Byron Jones. Um,

814
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:01,880
Speaker 1: I don't think we'll pick up his fifth year option,

815
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:05,080
Speaker 1: but I was wondering what you guys think about maybe

816
00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:08,080
Speaker 1: strictly playing him at slot corner over these next four

817
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:10,560
Speaker 1: games and just kind of seeing how he how he

818
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 1: performs there. And then second question would be the ESPN

819
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:20,520
Speaker 1: Playoff predictor. If Dallas and Seattle both finished at ten

820
00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:23,359
Speaker 1: and six, for some reason, it has Seattle going in

821
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 1: ahead of us. So I just want to if you

822
00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 1: guys knew why that was, and I'll hang up a listen,

823
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:32,120
Speaker 1: thank you guys. Well, I think is anybody else ten

824
00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:34,560
Speaker 1: and six? That's that's what you got to look at there.

825
00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:37,200
Speaker 1: If there's another is there somebody else in a three

826
00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:40,360
Speaker 1: way tie? I don't. I don't know. That's and you

827
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:43,960
Speaker 1: know the three way tie, yeah, because if the Cowboys

828
00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:46,440
Speaker 1: and the Seahawks finished ten and six and it's just

829
00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:48,759
Speaker 1: between them, it goes head to head, right, head to

830
00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:51,560
Speaker 1: head is the first tie. When you bring in another

831
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,239
Speaker 1: ten and sixteen, then you're looking at conference record, and

832
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:56,319
Speaker 1: that's probably why if I had to guess, But if

833
00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 1: you're doing the playoff predictor, then you would have to

834
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:02,480
Speaker 1: go through and look each individual result and who all

835
00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:04,840
Speaker 1: is ten and six? I mean, I'm imagined in a

836
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:07,840
Speaker 1: scenario where they're ten and six and then say the

837
00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:10,680
Speaker 1: Falcons or ten and six or whatever. Then yeah, like

838
00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:12,920
Speaker 1: I said, you go to conference record, and the Cowboys

839
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:16,040
Speaker 1: conference record, it's not great. I don't off the top

840
00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:17,720
Speaker 1: of my head. I don't know what it is. It'll

841
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,120
Speaker 1: get if they win down the stretch, it'll get better,

842
00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:22,719
Speaker 1: but maybe just doesn't catch up to what Seattle is.

843
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:24,239
Speaker 1: I don't again, I don't have all those numbers in

844
00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:26,120
Speaker 1: front of me. So we were talking about this at

845
00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:28,680
Speaker 1: breakfast today, like it's just the odds are not great.

846
00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:30,880
Speaker 1: Even if they went out, the odds still are not

847
00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:33,440
Speaker 1: super in their favor, especially you know with stuff like

848
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:35,600
Speaker 1: last night with the Falcons beating the same I really

849
00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:37,799
Speaker 1: needed the Falcons to take a loss last night. It

850
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:41,040
Speaker 1: would have been nice. So, I mean, they really think

851
00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:44,440
Speaker 1: about y'all watch the game. I watch it. What you

852
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,879
Speaker 1: think about that call there at the end, I mean

853
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:50,120
Speaker 1: third and eleven or third and one and they kind

854
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:52,040
Speaker 1: of a ten yard penalty. Oh. I knew you were

855
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,319
Speaker 1: losing your mind because you always think about those kinds

856
00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:56,800
Speaker 1: of things with the penalties, And at first I didn't

857
00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:59,240
Speaker 1: really think about it. I was like, that's probably okay,

858
00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:01,640
Speaker 1: But then when he went for it was fourth and lesson.

859
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:05,680
Speaker 1: I love that the Falcons guy, and he won the game,

860
00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:08,080
Speaker 1: but I mean he should have right, right you, I

861
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,120
Speaker 1: thought you were probably losing your mind. That he didn't

862
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:12,080
Speaker 1: take the penalty, should take the film move him back

863
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:13,839
Speaker 1: because then it maybe moves him out of field goal

864
00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:16,319
Speaker 1: range and they didn't win it. That was that was

865
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 1: a tough question, Jones. I was, I told Derek, like

866
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:24,520
Speaker 1: my my conversion and like I grew up a Saints fan,

867
00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:27,799
Speaker 1: and I'm I care so little that I had other

868
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,279
Speaker 1: plans last night, so I didn't watch the game. Then

869
00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:32,560
Speaker 1: I got home and saw how it ended, and instead

870
00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:34,840
Speaker 1: of being sad that my favorite team lost, I was

871
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:38,360
Speaker 1: excited because Deon Jones made a great play. I was like, yeah, Dion,

872
00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:41,000
Speaker 1: all right, oh he beat the Saints. Okay, he went

873
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:43,280
Speaker 1: to your high school, right, my high school and my college.

874
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:46,960
Speaker 1: That's he's easily the best football player to ever come

875
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:48,880
Speaker 1: out of my high school. Yeah, he's a beast. Are

876
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:52,759
Speaker 1: you in the top five? Sure? Yeah? Absolutely? All two

877
00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:57,840
Speaker 1: of my career tackles you made too, well, like eighth grade,

878
00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:00,400
Speaker 1: like not even like varsity football, when you made the tackle,

879
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:02,520
Speaker 1: like did you like grab onto them and they kind

880
00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:05,800
Speaker 1: of drag you a little bit, you know when you're

881
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:10,880
Speaker 1: when you like when you're thirteen, five to six is

882
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:13,359
Speaker 1: not that short, you know, like I was, you were

883
00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:15,680
Speaker 1: one of the big guy. I was normal sized for

884
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:18,279
Speaker 1: like a year in high school, and then everybody else

885
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:20,440
Speaker 1: kept growing and I stayed the same, and you're like

886
00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:26,919
Speaker 1: tapping yourself, like keep going. I looked at my four

887
00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 1: eleven mother and was like, yeah, this makes this is it? Yeah,

888
00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:34,239
Speaker 1: I'm dumb, told you dad. My dad's like five to nine,

889
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:38,520
Speaker 1: my mom's five foot or something like that. So yeah,

890
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:42,799
Speaker 1: all right, um, let's get to huh. Let's get to

891
00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:45,440
Speaker 1: another question. You give us a question from Twitter. Everyone

892
00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:49,640
Speaker 1: keeps sending comments about the Nick drop Monterrey hauling run.

893
00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:57,640
Speaker 1: Carol Pek, Carrol, Carol have an ass. I don't know

894
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:07,960
Speaker 1: cut that out turn anyone does. Um, I really I

895
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:10,560
Speaker 1: don't think it would have been about an offensive lineman.

896
00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:14,279
Speaker 1: I don't think really no, because that's what there's that's

897
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:16,799
Speaker 1: why they're offensive linemen. But I think that's maybe may

898
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:19,920
Speaker 1: have been your point, Like no, I bet it was

899
00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:23,399
Speaker 1: like a linebacker or something, if somebody that was kind

900
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 1: of just I don't know. I really don't know. I

901
00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:27,759
Speaker 1: want to say it so obviously, I want to know

902
00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:32,800
Speaker 1: it's obvious that that's why I'm saying it's an offensive

903
00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:34,840
Speaker 1: because you were saying, like well, of course he's an

904
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:38,960
Speaker 1: offensive lineman. No, I really don't think so. I somebody

905
00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:41,839
Speaker 1: might remember this or they're all saying, I think all

906
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:45,640
Speaker 1: the fans what it was de Marco Murray? Oh, that

907
00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:48,480
Speaker 1: that might be it? Actually, what does does anybody have

908
00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:52,080
Speaker 1: any feelings about de Marco Murray? Yeah, but that drops

909
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:54,680
Speaker 1: not hand yet. They threw that one away. He's no

910
00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:58,080
Speaker 1: longer on this team. Okay, the director, they throw that

911
00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:01,839
Speaker 1: stuff away. But all somehow it just disappears one day.

912
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:04,120
Speaker 1: Who knows. In order to take a step into the

913
00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:08,000
Speaker 1: right direction. And when the remaining the remaining games, which

914
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:10,720
Speaker 1: side needs to play better and consistent over that stretch,

915
00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:15,160
Speaker 1: Cowboys offense or their defense. When you look at the

916
00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:16,960
Speaker 1: teams that are gonna have to play, I think it's

917
00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:20,920
Speaker 1: going to have to be the defense because all those teams,

918
00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:23,040
Speaker 1: most of those teams you play, except for the Giants,

919
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:27,120
Speaker 1: all the rest of those teams. The better, the better

920
00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 1: unit on those teams is their offense. In my opinion. Yeah,

921
00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:33,160
Speaker 1: I'll say the defense too, because I mean, you'd like

922
00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:35,920
Speaker 1: to think if Zeke can come back, and you know,

923
00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:39,279
Speaker 1: let's not forget Zeke has not been very hasn't been

924
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:41,800
Speaker 1: that great. In the first two games of the season

925
00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:44,880
Speaker 1: in either of the two. And this is this is

926
00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:49,040
Speaker 1: a long enough break where you know a little bit.

927
00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:52,480
Speaker 1: You know, Seattle's not the easiest. Let's say it's not

928
00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:54,440
Speaker 1: a great place to start right now. I know he

929
00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:56,640
Speaker 1: had over one hundred yards against the Giants this year,

930
00:45:56,719 --> 00:45:59,560
Speaker 1: so in the first game. But and he's played well

931
00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:04,120
Speaker 1: against the thirty against the Giants, No in the opener,

932
00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:06,560
Speaker 1: like one oh seven h seven, yeah, which gave him

933
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:09,480
Speaker 1: one fifteen for the first two games combined. Ye, so

934
00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:13,759
Speaker 1: uh yeah, I think probably the I mean, I just

935
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:18,560
Speaker 1: their their offense has not been great, and the offense

936
00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:20,880
Speaker 1: is the only, like, it's the great part of the team.

937
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:22,440
Speaker 1: That's the part that you're supposed to be able to

938
00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:25,319
Speaker 1: lean on. But if the defense is playing well, Hey,

939
00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:27,440
Speaker 1: if special teams keeps coming through the way it did

940
00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:29,759
Speaker 1: last week, that would be huge, that would be a

941
00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:32,800
Speaker 1: big But I mean, if if the defense plays the

942
00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:35,200
Speaker 1: way it did during that three game stretch, then no

943
00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:36,960
Speaker 1: offense in the world is going to be able to

944
00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:40,279
Speaker 1: help him out. So I'd say defense. Okay, if the

945
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:43,239
Speaker 1: Cowboys went out and still don't make it to the playoffs,

946
00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:46,239
Speaker 1: why can't they take some from this season going into

947
00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:49,600
Speaker 1: the next season. What can they take? Yeah, well they

948
00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:52,000
Speaker 1: did take that. They're they're a pretty good football team.

949
00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:54,120
Speaker 1: They're there are seven and three football team when they

950
00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:56,920
Speaker 1: have Zeke, that that's what they would be. Yeah, and

951
00:46:56,920 --> 00:46:59,040
Speaker 1: I think they also could take the experience that they'll

952
00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:01,600
Speaker 1: get with these young guys. Think about that secondary and

953
00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:04,280
Speaker 1: those guys, I mean, they rebuilt that thing. They rebuilt

954
00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:07,120
Speaker 1: the secondary this year and so to be honest with you,

955
00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:08,799
Speaker 1: they had to know coming into this year they were

956
00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:11,400
Speaker 1: going to have some struggles in secondary because there was

957
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:15,680
Speaker 1: relatively little experience. But if, as you expect this weekend,

958
00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:17,520
Speaker 1: all three of those rookies will be out there and

959
00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:21,840
Speaker 1: playing regularly. It's that you can't buy that kind of

960
00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:25,800
Speaker 1: experience for first year guys on a team, where especially

961
00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:27,600
Speaker 1: if you got if you get a string of wins

962
00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:29,759
Speaker 1: with those guys out there, that'll build a lot of

963
00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:31,680
Speaker 1: confidence going to next year for those young guys. So

964
00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:33,600
Speaker 1: I think that could be very very valuable to him.

965
00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:35,719
Speaker 1: Take what you just said and apply it to Lyall

966
00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:38,520
Speaker 1: Collins too, because I think good point. We I mean

967
00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:40,960
Speaker 1: that it was right tackle and left guard, Like there's

968
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:43,400
Speaker 1: two big question marks. I don't consider right tackle a

969
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:46,520
Speaker 1: question mark anymore. Yeah, he hasn't. I mean he's not

970
00:47:46,560 --> 00:47:49,000
Speaker 1: an All Pro by any stretch, but he has more

971
00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:51,799
Speaker 1: than held his own and it has gained a lot

972
00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:54,680
Speaker 1: of experience. And like I go into next season like, yeah,

973
00:47:54,680 --> 00:47:57,279
Speaker 1: he's the right tackle. He's a pretty damn good right tackle.

974
00:47:57,320 --> 00:47:59,960
Speaker 1: He feel the same way by left guard. I actually

975
00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:03,000
Speaker 1: we answered that in the mailbag this morning. Um, it's

976
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:05,200
Speaker 1: the same thing as hitch. If if Jonathan Cooper can

977
00:48:05,239 --> 00:48:07,600
Speaker 1: be brought back for a good price, I'm all about it.

978
00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:10,480
Speaker 1: I think he's played really well that you put this

979
00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:12,160
Speaker 1: this line together for a second year, I think it

980
00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:14,640
Speaker 1: might be really working. I think I think that would

981
00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:19,439
Speaker 1: be great. I also think that somehow offensive line should

982
00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:23,000
Speaker 1: probably be addressed in the draft. Agree, tackle guard, whatever,

983
00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:26,480
Speaker 1: starting left guard, if you don't keep Cooper, but definitely

984
00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:29,520
Speaker 1: a swing tackle, that's something that I'm looking at for sure.

985
00:48:29,600 --> 00:48:31,960
Speaker 1: But those five I feel really good about, to be

986
00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:33,959
Speaker 1: honest with the other reason why I think you gotta

987
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:36,400
Speaker 1: addressed what you should address swing tackle in the draft

988
00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:38,919
Speaker 1: is because with the injuries that you've seen from Tyron

989
00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:41,520
Speaker 1: Smith the last couple of years, absolutely where those injuries

990
00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:44,560
Speaker 1: are and the frequency of those injuries suggests that you

991
00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:47,160
Speaker 1: better start thinking about what happens if at some point

992
00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:48,759
Speaker 1: it gets to the point where it's just he can't

993
00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:51,320
Speaker 1: do it anymore, It's fine. I told from an injury standpoint,

994
00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:53,280
Speaker 1: not from a skill standpoint, just from an injury stamp.

995
00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:55,600
Speaker 1: I told Tyron that when he heard his groin, I

996
00:48:55,719 --> 00:48:59,320
Speaker 1: was like, getting old man got like all all these injuries.

997
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,839
Speaker 1: He's He's like, on I'm like twenty seven. I was like, yeah,

998
00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:04,080
Speaker 1: you're You've been in the league for like a decade though,

999
00:49:04,120 --> 00:49:07,120
Speaker 1: like you're ancient by football standards, so and you would

1000
00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:09,000
Speaker 1: hope you still got another ten years with him. I

1001
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:11,439
Speaker 1: mean that would be that would be an offensive lineman

1002
00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:13,359
Speaker 1: play a long time. But it's just when you when

1003
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:16,000
Speaker 1: you got back injuries and they're continuing back problems, then

1004
00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:18,200
Speaker 1: I think you have to at least be thought thoughtful

1005
00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:20,359
Speaker 1: about what do you do in the event. It's like

1006
00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:22,799
Speaker 1: your car, you gotta be thinking about like maintenance and

1007
00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:25,960
Speaker 1: maintaining it and stuff like, way before the problems actually happened.

1008
00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:31,000
Speaker 1: You know, this screams scenario like Jalen Smith, but from

1009
00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:35,200
Speaker 1: the offensive tackle uh standpoint, like I believe a few

1010
00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:38,239
Speaker 1: years ago. Was it the Bengals that signed that guy

1011
00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:41,120
Speaker 1: from or drafted a guy from A and M. That was, Yeah,

1012
00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:44,520
Speaker 1: I can't pronounce it. It was a weird name. I can't, uh, well,

1013
00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:46,759
Speaker 1: booye or something. I was gonna say hot booty, but

1014
00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:49,239
Speaker 1: I don't know. That's not something, yeah, something like that.

1015
00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:52,719
Speaker 1: But oh, boy, wouldn't wasn't that his name? You're the

1016
00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:56,960
Speaker 1: Aggie Kent? Yeah? I think so. Well, somebody he was

1017
00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:59,560
Speaker 1: like a first round talent and and and he was

1018
00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:01,399
Speaker 1: out for the year or the torn acl was gonna

1019
00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:03,960
Speaker 1: miss the whole year or whatever. I could see Jerry

1020
00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:07,319
Speaker 1: doing something like that at tackle, going all right, trying

1021
00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:09,720
Speaker 1: to steal one in the second or third round, somebody

1022
00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:12,000
Speaker 1: that would probably be drafted higher. He does that in

1023
00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:15,320
Speaker 1: all positions. But then then you can get a talented player.

1024
00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:18,520
Speaker 1: I mean, heck, that's how they got Lyle Collins. They

1025
00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:21,319
Speaker 1: got Lyle Collins, who should have been a top ten pick. Yeah,

1026
00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:23,640
Speaker 1: but they didn't have to spend a draft pick on that.

1027
00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:26,600
Speaker 1: But let's use a second round pick on a good

1028
00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:28,560
Speaker 1: player who can play right now. That's what I But

1029
00:50:28,560 --> 00:50:30,440
Speaker 1: but if you're talking about a tackle, you don't want

1030
00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:33,160
Speaker 1: that guy to play anyway. I know, I'm just the

1031
00:50:33,560 --> 00:50:36,719
Speaker 1: second round being the like adventure round is like I'm

1032
00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:38,880
Speaker 1: ready to get off that right, I am too. I

1033
00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:41,000
Speaker 1: am too. But if you're going to draft an offensive tackle,

1034
00:50:41,080 --> 00:50:43,719
Speaker 1: your your hope is that it wasn't gonna he wasn't

1035
00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:46,839
Speaker 1: gonna play anyways. Yeah for sure. But yeah, I'm with

1036
00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:49,760
Speaker 1: you on them, on them trying to trying to steal

1037
00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:54,600
Speaker 1: picks all the time. But I mean that's go back

1038
00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:57,640
Speaker 1: in the last ten years, I mean seven or eight years.

1039
00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:01,239
Speaker 1: Everybody they draft is that way. Second Yeah, not even that,

1040
00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:03,680
Speaker 1: I mean that's Bryant. I mean, I mean they're trying

1041
00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:07,400
Speaker 1: to get steals. You know something. I think it's all

1042
00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:12,480
Speaker 1: all the dominoes from Randy Moss. I think Randy Moss

1043
00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:15,600
Speaker 1: taught them. Hey, if you think the guy can be

1044
00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:19,080
Speaker 1: a star, then there's a good chance he will be.

1045
00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:21,800
Speaker 1: And don't be the guy that passed up on him.

1046
00:51:21,840 --> 00:51:24,480
Speaker 1: All right, let's get a call from Spencer and Maryland. Spencer,

1047
00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:27,040
Speaker 1: what up, Hey, guys, how are you doing good? Are

1048
00:51:27,080 --> 00:51:28,800
Speaker 1: you a big fan of the show? All you guys?

1049
00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:31,960
Speaker 1: Nix K, thank you, real quick question and kind of

1050
00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:34,719
Speaker 1: take you back in from the show. Yesterday. I know

1051
00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:38,279
Speaker 1: you guys have mentioned potential shakeups Thereah, Brian, Look, guys,

1052
00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:41,560
Speaker 1: I'm a huge Garrett fan. I think his message is consistent.

1053
00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:44,399
Speaker 1: I think the guys do ride to what he says

1054
00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:47,040
Speaker 1: all the time, and not to talk out of both

1055
00:51:47,040 --> 00:51:49,719
Speaker 1: sides of the mouth here, but I think if the

1056
00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:53,000
Speaker 1: season goes down where the team doesn't make the playoffs,

1057
00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:54,680
Speaker 1: so they go ten and six and it just or

1058
00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:56,480
Speaker 1: they don't go ten and six so it doesn't look right,

1059
00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:59,480
Speaker 1: I think you have to consider certain shakeups, not so

1060
00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:03,160
Speaker 1: much heart and maybe looking around the league for other younger,

1061
00:52:03,520 --> 00:52:07,120
Speaker 1: more innovative options that coordinator, whether they be defensive, maybe

1062
00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:09,160
Speaker 1: even with Eber Forlouse. I just think they need to

1063
00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:11,560
Speaker 1: if it doesn't go well, they need to kind of

1064
00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:14,120
Speaker 1: examine their staff options and what they do from there.

1065
00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:17,760
Speaker 1: As always a big fan of show. Thanksful after getting

1066
00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:20,440
Speaker 1: me through, and I think for a crazy prediction, I

1067
00:52:20,440 --> 00:52:23,279
Speaker 1: think they do win this week. Um, and it's a

1068
00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:26,520
Speaker 1: weird prediction. I don't think that ELI finishes the game.

1069
00:52:26,800 --> 00:52:29,719
Speaker 1: Just a feeling all right, guys, it's always thanksful. I

1070
00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:31,279
Speaker 1: take care and have it going all right. Thanks for

1071
00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:35,000
Speaker 1: the call. It's a good prediction. Yeah, it's just like

1072
00:52:35,440 --> 00:52:39,160
Speaker 1: benching and not like him carted off. Yeah. Yeah, I

1073
00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:41,640
Speaker 1: think what he's saying is that there's it must be

1074
00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:44,200
Speaker 1: thinking there's gonna be a blowout. He doesn't get hurt. Yeah,

1075
00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:45,600
Speaker 1: that's I'm saying. So it's gonna have to be one

1076
00:52:45,600 --> 00:52:48,279
Speaker 1: of the situations where as a blowout and they're just like, yeah,

1077
00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:50,359
Speaker 1: I know, put in Davis Webb because we're yeh, which

1078
00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:53,719
Speaker 1: is probably how they should have managed that situation about it.

1079
00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:55,880
Speaker 1: I would be pissed and I would just go in

1080
00:52:56,000 --> 00:53:00,560
Speaker 1: and here's an interta throw interception. Here you go, Cowboy one?

1081
00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:03,000
Speaker 1: You think too? You think now? He would never do that.

1082
00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:06,520
Speaker 1: He wouldn't last name still Manning. That would be fun

1083
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:10,439
Speaker 1: to watch, but he would not ruin. Here's the quick

1084
00:53:10,520 --> 00:53:16,839
Speaker 1: would they catch it? Hey, Davier Woods Anthony? Yeah, yeah,

1085
00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:20,680
Speaker 1: those young guys, they might. Those young guys I actually

1086
00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:24,080
Speaker 1: have they got more interceptions, I mean than boy than

1087
00:53:24,120 --> 00:53:26,440
Speaker 1: we used to seeing around here, I mean average picks

1088
00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:29,360
Speaker 1: per game. Compare him any of those young guys with

1089
00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:32,920
Speaker 1: Scandrick yea Scandrids played how many games go seven picks?

1090
00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:36,759
Speaker 1: One hundred and thirty something games and eight interceptions? I mean,

1091
00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:42,080
Speaker 1: how many dropped interceptions. Anthony Brown has three three in

1092
00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:46,920
Speaker 1: almost two years, thirty games, whatever, and it. Yeah, I

1093
00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:48,960
Speaker 1: mean George Lewis got won his first game, didn't He's

1094
00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:52,000
Speaker 1: this is not a yeah he did. Yeah, this is

1095
00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:56,719
Speaker 1: not a he said something about the young coordinators, you know.

1096
00:53:56,840 --> 00:53:59,040
Speaker 1: I mean, you think about it. We'll always talk about

1097
00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:01,919
Speaker 1: fifteen years ago, and you're like, well, the game has changed.

1098
00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:04,200
Speaker 1: It's more of a passing league. I mean, I bet

1099
00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:06,399
Speaker 1: you the game has changed way more than like Rod

1100
00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:11,799
Speaker 1: Marinelli's thought process and like philosophies and stuff like that

1101
00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:14,080
Speaker 1: have changed. So it kind of means, are you saying

1102
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:17,080
Speaker 1: he's a little bit outdated. Maybe I'm asking I just

1103
00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:18,640
Speaker 1: want to be clear on what you're saying. I think so.

1104
00:54:18,760 --> 00:54:21,960
Speaker 1: I think so. I think you need to have some

1105
00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:25,600
Speaker 1: younger guys in here. Younger. I mean, the game's evolved

1106
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:27,680
Speaker 1: a lot, and there's there's new ways to do it.

1107
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:29,960
Speaker 1: But I mean that's kind of the way it is

1108
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:32,279
Speaker 1: across the boards, not just the coaching staff. It's kind

1109
00:54:32,280 --> 00:54:34,759
Speaker 1: of that way across the board. But I will say this,

1110
00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:36,799
Speaker 1: I mean there's some really some of the guys I

1111
00:54:36,840 --> 00:54:38,840
Speaker 1: still think are some of the best defensive minds in

1112
00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:41,080
Speaker 1: this country, I mean this league. Are guys that have

1113
00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:43,719
Speaker 1: been around as long as Rod Marinelli and they're still

1114
00:54:43,760 --> 00:54:45,480
Speaker 1: doing well. I mean, look at the Rams, I mean

1115
00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:49,920
Speaker 1: Wade Phillips. Everywhere he goes, the defense is legit, right,

1116
00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:53,640
Speaker 1: Tennessee's defense is still pretty good, right. I think these

1117
00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:56,279
Speaker 1: there's some of those guys that, yea, even though the

1118
00:54:56,320 --> 00:54:58,839
Speaker 1: game may have changed a ton, they still do the

1119
00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:00,960
Speaker 1: same sort of print spools. And of course I'm sure

1120
00:55:00,960 --> 00:55:04,160
Speaker 1: they've adapted over the years, but the way they believe

1121
00:55:04,200 --> 00:55:06,880
Speaker 1: in defense and their philosophies on defense are pretty consistent.

1122
00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:09,520
Speaker 1: Dom capers the same way, and I don't I mean,

1123
00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:12,240
Speaker 1: they're still they're still doing really well. You know, if

1124
00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:14,840
Speaker 1: if they don't make the playoffs, I just I would

1125
00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:17,200
Speaker 1: imagine there will be some sort of shake. Somebody's got

1126
00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:18,799
Speaker 1: to take a fall, and it was like it might

1127
00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:21,560
Speaker 1: not even be like like you're fired, like he's at it,

1128
00:55:21,600 --> 00:55:24,440
Speaker 1: but like you know, somebody, there'll be another job offering,

1129
00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:27,680
Speaker 1: or they'll let you know, they'll let somebody's contract expire,

1130
00:55:27,719 --> 00:55:30,400
Speaker 1: Like these guys only work on two years contracts. Anyway,

1131
00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:32,399
Speaker 1: Are there any coaches contracts that are up this year?

1132
00:55:32,520 --> 00:55:34,720
Speaker 1: It's not. It's hard to know. They don't make them public.

1133
00:55:35,480 --> 00:55:38,800
Speaker 1: I'm sure. I'm positive there there's always there are always

1134
00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:42,719
Speaker 1: contracts up. So I think the coaching staff will see

1135
00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:44,719
Speaker 1: some sort of change if I had to guess, I

1136
00:55:44,719 --> 00:55:47,640
Speaker 1: don't know how drastic or how dramatic it'll be, but

1137
00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:51,000
Speaker 1: that would be my guests. But I think some may

1138
00:55:51,040 --> 00:55:54,560
Speaker 1: even part ways by their own will. Yeah, that I

1139
00:55:54,560 --> 00:55:58,120
Speaker 1: mean that too. That's if you have a contract Kenney, No,

1140
00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:01,600
Speaker 1: but not necessary. Well, it depends unless the team one,

1141
00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:05,680
Speaker 1: unless it's mutual. Let's hut. Yeah, the only way you

1142
00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:08,040
Speaker 1: the only way that the league cannot jump in is

1143
00:56:08,080 --> 00:56:10,719
Speaker 1: if you go take a head coaching job somewhere. Right,

1144
00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:14,919
Speaker 1: But if I mean there is there is a misperception

1145
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:18,040
Speaker 1: there that people think if you're a quality control coach

1146
00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:20,560
Speaker 1: and you want to be a defensive coordinator somewhere, like,

1147
00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:22,200
Speaker 1: they don't have to let them out of the contract

1148
00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:23,719
Speaker 1: for that. The only way you have you can let

1149
00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:25,200
Speaker 1: them out of the contract, or you have to, is

1150
00:56:25,239 --> 00:56:28,040
Speaker 1: if they become a head coach. So most teams would

1151
00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:32,680
Speaker 1: probably a lot of coach in it's head coach in

1152
00:56:32,719 --> 00:56:34,759
Speaker 1: the NFL. But I mean, I wonder if some linebackers

1153
00:56:34,760 --> 00:56:37,680
Speaker 1: coach wanted to be a head coach, I could, Well,

1154
00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:40,520
Speaker 1: there's no government, the NFL doesn't govern college, so if

1155
00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:42,120
Speaker 1: you it would be more of a legal thing. Can

1156
00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:44,600
Speaker 1: you get out of the contract. I don't think any

1157
00:56:44,600 --> 00:56:46,040
Speaker 1: team would do that. The guy wants to be a

1158
00:56:46,040 --> 00:56:48,000
Speaker 1: head coach in college, I don't know. I mean, I mean,

1159
00:56:48,040 --> 00:56:49,400
Speaker 1: what can you I don't think they really could do

1160
00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:51,760
Speaker 1: anything other than try to hold them to the contract

1161
00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:54,760
Speaker 1: and sag outs contract. But there may be legal outs,

1162
00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:56,799
Speaker 1: legal ways to get out of the contract or whatever.

1163
00:56:56,880 --> 00:56:59,200
Speaker 1: But who knows. All right, let's get our our predictions.

1164
00:56:59,280 --> 00:57:01,040
Speaker 1: Let's start with you. Who do you think's gonna win

1165
00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:06,759
Speaker 1: this game? Um, I'll just say whatever. Twenty seven inspired

1166
00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:13,440
Speaker 1: twenty seventeen. I'm gonna go for the Cowboys, but I

1167
00:57:13,480 --> 00:57:17,120
Speaker 1: think that the Giant scot very well win this game

1168
00:57:17,160 --> 00:57:20,560
Speaker 1: as well. I'm not choosing both. I'm sticking with the Cowboys.

1169
00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:25,960
Speaker 1: I didn't say any stop it, just think casey no,

1170
00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:28,920
Speaker 1: But I'll go with the Cowboy. What I was thinking though, yeah,

1171
00:57:29,080 --> 00:57:32,600
Speaker 1: I could feel it. I could feel your vibes. But yeah,

1172
00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:36,840
Speaker 1: and that's all I have to say. I think this

1173
00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:40,240
Speaker 1: is gonna be a really ugly game, like not like

1174
00:57:40,280 --> 00:57:42,840
Speaker 1: we're gonna we're not gonna be happy having watched this,

1175
00:57:42,920 --> 00:57:45,040
Speaker 1: if I had to guess just the weather and the

1176
00:57:45,080 --> 00:57:48,440
Speaker 1: team's involved. But I think the Cowboys are a better team.

1177
00:57:48,480 --> 00:57:51,280
Speaker 1: I think Jason Garrett's usually pretty good at stuff like this.

1178
00:57:51,360 --> 00:57:53,760
Speaker 1: That's you know, his whole strength is keeping people on message,

1179
00:57:53,840 --> 00:57:58,240
Speaker 1: keeping people motivated. Um I think I said my bold

1180
00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:00,600
Speaker 1: prediction is that DeMarcus Lawrence is gonna get three sacks.

1181
00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:04,480
Speaker 1: I think Giants line is a mess. Eli doesn't have

1182
00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:06,720
Speaker 1: anywhere to throw the ball anyway other than Evin Ingram.

1183
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:10,960
Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys win twenty four or ten. I

1184
00:58:11,400 --> 00:58:14,440
Speaker 1: my bold prediction is a defensive touchdown. I think this

1185
00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:17,160
Speaker 1: week last week was special teams, and defense is starting

1186
00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:19,840
Speaker 1: to get some picks. I could see they always seem

1187
00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:22,920
Speaker 1: to seem to make some defensive touchdowns up there, So

1188
00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:25,120
Speaker 1: I agree, though David, I think it's gonna be an

1189
00:58:25,160 --> 00:58:26,600
Speaker 1: ugly game. Thing it would be a little bit more

1190
00:58:26,600 --> 00:58:29,680
Speaker 1: field goals, so I think weird scores. I'm gonna go

1191
00:58:29,800 --> 00:58:35,919
Speaker 1: Dallas twenty five, Giants sixteen. Okay, I think it's also

1192
00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:38,600
Speaker 1: gonna be an ugly game. I actually think this game

1193
00:58:38,680 --> 00:58:41,200
Speaker 1: is gonna have a lot of weird moments, weird plays,

1194
00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:45,280
Speaker 1: weird scores, but I think the Cowboys end up winning it.

1195
00:58:45,560 --> 00:58:47,320
Speaker 1: I do think the Giants for most of the game,

1196
00:58:47,840 --> 00:58:49,960
Speaker 1: even at some points maybe are up, but I think

1197
00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:52,360
Speaker 1: that that's gonna be a much closer game than what

1198
00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:55,960
Speaker 1: the final score might indicate. It'll still be within seven

1199
00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:58,400
Speaker 1: though I think the final scores sixteen ten. I think

1200
00:58:58,400 --> 00:59:01,320
Speaker 1: Cowboys get a win and at least keep their hopes

1201
00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:03,720
Speaker 1: alive for one more week, and we'll see how it goes.

1202
00:59:03,800 --> 00:59:08,320
Speaker 1: It sounds so uplifted right there and inspired. I really

1203
00:59:08,320 --> 00:59:11,320
Speaker 1: wanted Atlanta losing. I know you did. Oh well, all right,

1204
00:59:11,360 --> 00:59:13,040
Speaker 1: we're gonna we'll be back on Monday. We'll tell you

1205
00:59:13,080 --> 00:59:15,000
Speaker 1: what went right and what went wrong for Nick even

1206
00:59:15,080 --> 00:59:17,400
