Did you get some rest, Isaiah? 0:01:10.080 --> 0:01:11.839 I never get rest. Kyle. I was about to say, 0:01:11.880 --> 0:01:14.080 were you up again? At five am? I actually went 0:01:14.080 --> 0:01:15.640 to bed early last night. I went to bed like 0:01:15.680 --> 0:01:18.959 at like nine thirty. Wow, you're still respect that's so early. 0:01:19.120 --> 0:01:20.680 That's why you didn't answer my phone? Well, I got 0:01:20.680 --> 0:01:21.959 my films that we could be in that I didn't 0:01:21.959 --> 0:01:22.880 have to come in here. I got a lot of 0:01:22.880 --> 0:01:25.520 my filmwork done, so last night I didn't have to 0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:29.800 do my film work, so I got some sleep. Early times. 0:01:29.800 --> 0:01:31.400 You got to shut it down. My wife actually got 0:01:31.400 --> 0:01:33.320 someone's wrong with me. She was like, you, Okay, you're good. 0:01:33.400 --> 0:01:39.240 I guess I just got sleep. Something I'm saying exactly exactly, Patrick, 0:01:39.319 --> 0:01:40.880 You and I got to go. Uh. We got to 0:01:40.880 --> 0:01:43.320 go serve at the Salvation Army yesterday, which was a 0:01:43.319 --> 0:01:46.039 ton of fun. Absolutely. We had a warehouse takeover and 0:01:46.080 --> 0:01:48.360 went to the Salvation Army. Beam was there as well, 0:01:48.440 --> 0:01:52.880 and we were basically packing and delivering toys to kiddos 0:01:52.920 --> 0:01:54.880 and to families that were a part of the Angel 0:01:54.960 --> 0:01:58.960 Tree program here up in North Texas. And yeah, really 0:01:58.960 --> 0:02:00.640 really fun day. It was your first time being a 0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:02.640 part of it. Would you think it's a great experience, 0:02:03.240 --> 0:02:06.080 you know, Shouts out obviously the Salvation Army and everything 0:02:06.280 --> 0:02:08.960 that they do and are able to do and continue 0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:11.120 to do for those that are less fortunate. Shouts out 0:02:11.120 --> 0:02:14.040 to the Cowboys as an organization for Tag Team with 0:02:14.080 --> 0:02:16.760 the Salvation Army to you know, give us an opportunity 0:02:16.800 --> 0:02:19.520 to make some days yesterday. I mean, we really made 0:02:19.760 --> 0:02:22.040 people's day yesterday and I just put the biggest smile 0:02:22.080 --> 0:02:25.160 on my face. So just tons of fun seeing the smile, 0:02:25.240 --> 0:02:28.919 seeing the kiddos, seeing the parents, you know, and having 0:02:29.000 --> 0:02:32.679 those conversations. So absolute wonderful Happy holidays to everyone who 0:02:32.720 --> 0:02:34.680 was able to come out. Yeah, it was really really 0:02:34.720 --> 0:02:36.480 a fun day and it's one of the best days 0:02:36.480 --> 0:02:40.640 of the year. The hospital visits to the Cowboys do annually. 0:02:40.760 --> 0:02:43.799 Of course, had the skip because of COVID, but back 0:02:43.840 --> 0:02:45.760 again this year. That was on Monday, so it's a 0:02:46.080 --> 0:02:50.600 week full of service for the Cowboys organization. Shoutouts credit 0:02:50.680 --> 0:02:53.000 to those upstairs that kind of set up and run 0:02:53.040 --> 0:02:55.480 the whole deal and the partnership between the two. But 0:02:55.560 --> 0:02:58.720 absolutely Salvation Army doing some fantastic work up in the 0:02:58.760 --> 0:03:01.880 North Texas area. We've got something to talk about, gentlemen. 0:03:02.520 --> 0:03:04.560 Since the last time we were on the air, We've 0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:07.240 got a couple of things to talk about, don't including 0:03:07.240 --> 0:03:09.640 a new wide receiver in the fold. I wasn't gonna 0:03:09.639 --> 0:03:13.160 say anything about myself. Oh I stand back. He signed 0:03:16.400 --> 0:03:21.080 laden because he heard about the injuries there. There's an 0:03:21.080 --> 0:03:23.079 injury history. What do you have to say about that one. 0:03:23.280 --> 0:03:29.000 You know, it's logistics game. Russes different veteran wide receiver 0:03:29.120 --> 0:03:32.840 and brit saw you walking, go get out. You're not 0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:38.640 supposed to be here. Uh. T Y Hilton, veteran wide receiver, 0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:41.200 four time Pro bowler, is now a Dallas Cowboy. He 0:03:41.280 --> 0:03:45.000 signed for the one year deal back on Monday. Monday 0:03:45.040 --> 0:03:48.960 afternoon was when the deal came down. Surprise, surprise. Yeah, 0:03:49.000 --> 0:03:51.120 it kind of came out of nowhere. But also there 0:03:51.200 --> 0:03:53.720 was a little bit of smoke from the off season. 0:03:53.840 --> 0:03:57.480 There was some talks there initially, but he never signed, 0:03:57.640 --> 0:04:01.800 never went anywhere. So into start our news and notes section, Patrick, 0:04:01.960 --> 0:04:04.800 what do you think about the the t Y Hilton signing? 0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:07.120 I really like it for what it is. T Y 0:04:07.320 --> 0:04:10.600 was a name that I myself was kind of tapping 0:04:10.640 --> 0:04:13.000 the table for, not necessarily pounding the table, but tapping 0:04:13.040 --> 0:04:15.800 the table for back in training cam back earlier in 0:04:15.840 --> 0:04:19.039 the offseason as as a target that the Cowboys should 0:04:19.040 --> 0:04:21.120 look at. This is a guy who's only two years 0:04:21.600 --> 0:04:24.239 removed from almost having eight hundred yards and five receiving 0:04:24.279 --> 0:04:28.279 touchdowns for the Coats in the final season of Philip Rivers. 0:04:28.680 --> 0:04:31.200 And for those that are you know constantly wondering, oh, 0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:33.280 what about his injury history. Well, if you go back, 0:04:33.320 --> 0:04:35.800 he played fifteen games in that season. I'm talking about 0:04:35.800 --> 0:04:38.200 twenty twenty. He played. He had nine starts in twenty 0:04:38.240 --> 0:04:41.120 twenty one, and he's had plenty of time to get 0:04:41.160 --> 0:04:43.440 one hundred percent and rest up before being, you know, 0:04:43.600 --> 0:04:46.400 possibly a mercenary for the Cowboys at the wide receiver position. 0:04:46.960 --> 0:04:49.040 This was a guy who at one point was in 0:04:49.080 --> 0:04:51.760 the conversation for it. Could he be a potential Hall 0:04:51.800 --> 0:04:54.640 of Famer And he's coming in. Yes, he's thirty three, 0:04:55.080 --> 0:04:58.720 but he's not being tasked with being the number one 0:04:58.760 --> 0:05:01.360 wide receiver or number two wide receiver. And then Noah 0:05:01.360 --> 0:05:03.240 Brown is still going to get some reps at number three. 0:05:03.320 --> 0:05:07.080 That's going to aid and t wise durability UM and 0:05:07.320 --> 0:05:10.120 Mike McCarthy himself said, all times where a goal, he's 0:05:10.160 --> 0:05:12.800 ready to go. He passed everything with flying colors as 0:05:12.839 --> 0:05:15.600 far as the physical medical reports. So I love the move. 0:05:15.680 --> 0:05:17.120 I love the move. I love the move. I love 0:05:17.200 --> 0:05:19.640 the move. What do you think, guys are I'm not 0:05:19.680 --> 0:05:25.960 against it. I'm interested to see him on the field. Yeah, 0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:28.400 that's that's really what I'm to see this week. Yeah, 0:05:28.440 --> 0:05:29.880 I want to see him on the field. I mean, 0:05:29.960 --> 0:05:33.320 I know there were some some murmurs at least internally 0:05:33.480 --> 0:05:36.520 here amongst our analysts. We were talking about the potential 0:05:36.560 --> 0:05:39.680 of him when when the receiver position was lacking earlier 0:05:39.680 --> 0:05:42.800 in the season. We kind of put some put some 0:05:42.880 --> 0:05:45.000 little uh, I don't know what we do, what you 0:05:45.000 --> 0:05:46.640 want to call it, but we did a little homework 0:05:46.680 --> 0:05:48.599 and got some insight, and people were pretty much saying 0:05:48.760 --> 0:05:51.680 that he had fallen off, that he had slowed down, 0:05:51.720 --> 0:05:54.039 he wasn't what he used to be, obviously nobody really 0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:57.400 is at that age, and but that he wasn't really 0:05:57.480 --> 0:05:59.520 in a position to contribute in a major way to 0:05:59.600 --> 0:06:02.760 a to organization, which is why he hadn't signed with anywhere. Yeah, 0:06:02.800 --> 0:06:05.000 that's why the Colts hadn't signed him back. So I'm 0:06:05.040 --> 0:06:07.240 interested to see if those reports are true. There's one 0:06:07.240 --> 0:06:09.719 thing between rumors and reality, and I'm looking to see 0:06:10.080 --> 0:06:12.200 watch him trying to prove those people wrong. You know what. 0:06:12.240 --> 0:06:15.039 I wonder though, to your latter point, because as we 0:06:15.080 --> 0:06:17.320 all know, free agency is a two way street. It 0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:20.279 could have reasably been because Ersay and Ty still have 0:06:20.279 --> 0:06:23.400 a fantastic relationship, but it could have been a situation 0:06:23.480 --> 0:06:26.600 where you see things went wrong with Carson Wentz and 0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:28.960 then they make this blockbuster trade for Matt Ryan, but 0:06:29.000 --> 0:06:32.120 Matt Ryan didn't look fantastic in his final year with 0:06:32.200 --> 0:06:34.719 the Atlanta Falcons. Couldn't have been a situation where ty 0:06:34.720 --> 0:06:36.240 I looked at it and said, well, you guys haven't 0:06:36.279 --> 0:06:38.720 been doing so great with quarterbacks recently. Let's see how 0:06:38.720 --> 0:06:41.480 this plays out, and we'll revisit midpoint in the season, 0:06:41.720 --> 0:06:43.440 where then you fast forward to midpoint in the cold 0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:47.080 season and tis probably like absolutely no head coach, no 0:06:47.160 --> 0:06:50.120 stability a quarterback, absolutely not and then you know, fast 0:06:50.160 --> 0:06:52.320 forward he falls right into the Cowboys lap. So that, 0:06:52.360 --> 0:06:54.400 I mean, that's the scenario as well it could be. 0:06:54.560 --> 0:06:57.720 And the only thing with me and I credit Mickey 0:06:57.760 --> 0:07:01.240 Spagnola for this, that's how committed I think Mickey. Mickey 0:07:01.279 --> 0:07:03.039 makes me laugh because one of the first times I 0:07:03.080 --> 0:07:04.920 was ever on Talking Cowboys, I was at it was 0:07:04.960 --> 0:07:07.200 as an analyst or no I was hosting that show. 0:07:07.440 --> 0:07:11.280 But then but then Mickey, we were talking about free agency, 0:07:11.520 --> 0:07:13.720 and we were talking about somebody that could be available, 0:07:13.720 --> 0:07:18.240 and his big question always, always always is why is 0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:20.760 he out there? That's the question you have to answer, 0:07:20.880 --> 0:07:22.400 why is he out there? And to the point where 0:07:22.480 --> 0:07:25.800 sometimes it gets very annoying to hear that it's like, well, 0:07:25.800 --> 0:07:28.480 we signed a good player, he's gonna help us football team. 0:07:28.800 --> 0:07:30.640 This is one of those where it's why was he 0:07:30.640 --> 0:07:32.520 out there at this point in the season. He's been healthy, 0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:36.520 he's been been able to contribute at some point in 0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:38.480 the season to some NFL team, but he's not even 0:07:38.480 --> 0:07:41.480 been in a camp. He hadn't even been in a roster. Well, 0:07:41.480 --> 0:07:43.239 for me, it's the same question that you could pose 0:07:43.280 --> 0:07:46.280 with someone like Admic and Sue right Sue, Sue was healthy, 0:07:46.400 --> 0:07:49.640 But there are these veteran mercenaries who are you know, 0:07:49.760 --> 0:07:53.320 thirty plus years old, who are fully healthy, who are 0:07:53.320 --> 0:07:55.600 just sitting there waiting to see what a good situation 0:07:55.760 --> 0:07:57.880 is because they're not the ones that are likely to 0:07:58.400 --> 0:08:01.720 go through a full training camp. You know, Jason Peters, 0:08:01.720 --> 0:08:04.040 for example, he didn't sign to go through training camp. 0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:05.680 He was being ramped up on the back end of 0:08:05.680 --> 0:08:08.200 the preseason going into the regular season. So at a 0:08:08.200 --> 0:08:11.400 certain point, when you have established yourself as such a 0:08:11.480 --> 0:08:14.119 valuable veteran who still has some trade left on the tires, 0:08:14.120 --> 0:08:16.400 even if you're not necessarily your prime. You're going to 0:08:16.480 --> 0:08:19.240 have some value, especially if you're fully healthy, and that 0:08:19.320 --> 0:08:21.080 gives you at least some leverage to be able to 0:08:21.120 --> 0:08:23.800 see how the season plays out and see which one 0:08:23.840 --> 0:08:27.360 of your potential several suitors has the best fit for you. 0:08:27.480 --> 0:08:30.840 I'm confident that the Cowboys and the Coats weren't the 0:08:30.840 --> 0:08:32.559 only two that were interested in the side of t 0:08:32.720 --> 0:08:35.160 Y Hilton. But if you look at it from the 0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:38.680 perspective of t Y Hilton, Okay, who at this juncture 0:08:39.760 --> 0:08:42.240 might give me the best shot at getting to the 0:08:42.240 --> 0:08:44.200 Super Bowl and getting the ring in twenty twenty two? 0:08:44.679 --> 0:08:47.079 The Cowboys have a fantastic shot at doing that. Sitting 0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:49.160 at ten and three, only a couple games out from 0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:52.520 the Philadelphia Eagles, with a dominant defense, so forth and 0:08:52.559 --> 0:08:56.080 so on, a franchise quarterback, dominant backfield. You got your 0:08:56.120 --> 0:08:59.559 top two receivers. I mean, it's not just situation, a 0:08:59.640 --> 0:09:03.000 much worse situation that you could get into. Yeah, good situation. 0:09:03.080 --> 0:09:05.440 You just don't seem very excited about it. Is it 0:09:05.520 --> 0:09:08.280 because of the temperate expectations? Because he's not expected to 0:09:08.280 --> 0:09:12.400 come in and be a I mean, I'm not excited 0:09:12.520 --> 0:09:15.480 for a number of reasons. We don't know what he's 0:09:16.200 --> 0:09:18.480 what position he's in right now physically, we just don't know, 0:09:18.760 --> 0:09:22.160 right I mean, we're hoping that he's You don't think it, 0:09:22.320 --> 0:09:24.480 just like we talked about with Odell Beckham, You don't 0:09:24.520 --> 0:09:26.880 think they did their due diligence to figure out whether 0:09:26.960 --> 0:09:28.840 or not he was ready to go. Yeah, I mean, 0:09:28.920 --> 0:09:32.559 I'm not. I don't disregard that, nor do I question 0:09:32.760 --> 0:09:37.319 their ability to do their due diligence. I question a 0:09:37.480 --> 0:09:40.479 receiver's ability to come in and fit in a system 0:09:40.520 --> 0:09:42.840 that isn't just because of a receiver skill doesn't mean 0:09:42.880 --> 0:09:44.240 that they could just come in and get and get 0:09:44.320 --> 0:09:47.160 dumped into a system effective. Absolutely the same question, o 0:09:47.160 --> 0:09:49.480 bj Not only that you don't have the most accurate 0:09:49.559 --> 0:09:51.800 quarterback in the league right now on your team. So 0:09:52.679 --> 0:09:55.560 and then that's once that's my second concern. My third 0:09:55.559 --> 0:09:58.720 concern is by bringing in more receivers, what does that 0:09:58.800 --> 0:10:02.640 now due to mister Kellen Are who got away from 0:10:02.679 --> 0:10:04.960 the run last week when the run was still being 0:10:04.960 --> 0:10:09.120 in a Yeah, So like that's that was on my 0:10:09.200 --> 0:10:12.960 concerns and James Washington's back Tolbert, I'm sure I doubt 0:10:12.960 --> 0:10:15.480 if he finishes the year. Yeah, exactly. So, I mean 0:10:16.400 --> 0:10:18.240 there's a lot of concern. I'm not excited because I 0:10:18.400 --> 0:10:21.520 have nothing to be excited about. I haven't seen it. Yeah, 0:10:21.559 --> 0:10:24.920 I'm excited. And when I say excited, it's it's tempered, 0:10:25.000 --> 0:10:27.040 and it's much like I said in the mail back. 0:10:27.080 --> 0:10:29.440 I think the mailback went up on yesterday. Um, what 0:10:29.559 --> 0:10:32.480 should the expectations be for t Y Hilton? And you 0:10:32.480 --> 0:10:36.240 should have some a little bit of excitement and optimism 0:10:36.280 --> 0:10:41.000 as a fan base, but temperate, respectfully because you haven't 0:10:41.040 --> 0:10:43.280 seen it yet. But you also have to see how 0:10:43.320 --> 0:10:46.160 it fits over the next several games. So temperate and 0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:48.679 also understand that this isn't the t Y that was, 0:10:48.840 --> 0:10:51.760 you know, racking up consecutive thousand yards seasons. But if 0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:54.080 this is the t Y that got almost four hundred 0:10:54.160 --> 0:10:57.760 yards a year ago and three touchdowns, if you can 0:10:57.840 --> 0:11:01.640 drop that into this mix, then it does infect fit perfectly. 0:11:01.640 --> 0:11:03.080 But I mean to just this point, you just have 0:11:03.120 --> 0:11:05.440 to see it. But I believe that it can work. Yeah. 0:11:05.480 --> 0:11:09.520 I fewer way fewer questions or t why than I do. 0:11:09.840 --> 0:11:12.520 Oh absolutely, I look forward to it. I'll put it 0:11:12.520 --> 0:11:13.880 that way. I don't want to seem like I'm not 0:11:14.480 --> 0:11:16.719 in any form excited. I if he can be who 0:11:17.000 --> 0:11:19.080 who he has been on film in these in these 0:11:19.160 --> 0:11:20.719 years that we've known him to come, come and no 0:11:20.920 --> 0:11:23.240 to why Hilton And absolutely that's a great freaking signing. 0:11:23.240 --> 0:11:25.600 And you know what right I mean? But this doesn't work, 0:11:25.640 --> 0:11:28.280 then if it doesn't the weapons. But my biggest thing 0:11:28.400 --> 0:11:32.719 is this, This organization understands that Dallas is gonna have 0:11:32.760 --> 0:11:36.040 to put up points. That's that's the bigger picture. That's 0:11:36.120 --> 0:11:39.000 to me, that's the that's what this is spotlighting. We 0:11:39.040 --> 0:11:41.199 recognize we're gonna say some freaking points. You know. It's 0:11:41.240 --> 0:11:45.040 it's no quinkydink that you lose two of your that 0:11:45.160 --> 0:11:47.320 you lose two of your starting defensive backs and all 0:11:47.320 --> 0:11:50.800 of a sudden now you're looking to add more offense. Yeah, no, 0:11:50.920 --> 0:11:53.480 your things don't just fall into plays like that like crap, 0:11:53.520 --> 0:11:55.160 all right, we're hurting that one position. We might have 0:11:55.200 --> 0:11:57.120 to score more, might have to get out there because 0:11:57.160 --> 0:11:59.680 there's gonna be some big plays, maybe given up because 0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:02.880 you don't have Anthony Brown, because he don't have Jordan Lewis. 0:12:02.920 --> 0:12:06.240 That's something to keep in mind. Who has more pressure 0:12:06.320 --> 0:12:10.280 on them to make t Y work because you mentioned three, 0:12:10.440 --> 0:12:14.320 three aspects to it, t Y himself, Dak Prescott, Kellen Moore, 0:12:14.600 --> 0:12:16.920 those are the three areas that are going to allow 0:12:16.960 --> 0:12:19.680 t Y Hilton to be successful as a cowboy who's 0:12:19.720 --> 0:12:22.199 under the most pressure to get the job done? Or 0:12:22.240 --> 0:12:26.120 who do you who do you think is? I can't 0:12:26.120 --> 0:12:27.439 even ask it the other way. I'm gonna put it 0:12:27.440 --> 0:12:29.120 on Dak. And the reason I put it on Dad 0:12:29.160 --> 0:12:32.160 because Dak has to find continuity now with the James Washington, 0:12:32.160 --> 0:12:34.400 and he has to find continuity with a Ty Hilton, 0:12:34.480 --> 0:12:37.040 all while he's never thrown a football, all while not 0:12:37.120 --> 0:12:40.120 losing the chemistry that he already has established with a 0:12:40.200 --> 0:12:43.559 CD and Noah and these other guys. Like it's a lot. Man. 0:12:43.559 --> 0:12:45.080 People think that you could just plug and play. You 0:12:45.080 --> 0:12:47.160 can't just plug and play. You when you go out 0:12:47.200 --> 0:12:51.439 there and you're you're so dependent on on nonverbal communication, 0:12:51.440 --> 0:12:54.120 when you're so dependent on just reactionary things, you're I mean, 0:12:54.559 --> 0:12:57.880 when you start dumping new guys in there, it doesn't 0:12:57.880 --> 0:13:00.200 just flow like that. You hope, you hope that it 0:13:00.200 --> 0:13:03.480 flows like that, but the reality is, and you need raps, man. 0:13:03.679 --> 0:13:05.839 It's a reason why you're starting in OTAs. It's a 0:13:05.840 --> 0:13:07.760 reason why you're starting to spring, so that you can 0:13:07.760 --> 0:13:10.120 build that chemistry, you can build all those communications. Way 0:13:10.240 --> 0:13:11.960 lends all those things so that when you get to 0:13:12.040 --> 0:13:14.679 these games, you can look at a guy, give him ahead, nod, 0:13:14.720 --> 0:13:16.560 and you guys are on the same page. Now you 0:13:16.559 --> 0:13:18.160 have to look at a guy and give him some 0:13:18.200 --> 0:13:20.080 sign language or the receiver next to him has to 0:13:20.080 --> 0:13:22.960 tell him something, and it slows. It slows everything down, 0:13:22.960 --> 0:13:24.360 and now all of a sudden, he may not be 0:13:24.400 --> 0:13:26.160 exactly where I want him to be. He may not 0:13:26.160 --> 0:13:27.760 know exactly where I'm trying to put the ball at. 0:13:28.160 --> 0:13:32.640 There's a lot, mister Timmon, and obviously there's a good 0:13:32.679 --> 0:13:34.520 bit of pressure on Dak to make it work. But 0:13:34.559 --> 0:13:37.040 for me, the most pressure is on Kellen Moore. Kellen 0:13:37.080 --> 0:13:39.280 Moore is going to have to show that he can 0:13:39.320 --> 0:13:44.360 scheme up this many receivers without getting away from establishing 0:13:44.520 --> 0:13:46.840 a dynamic run game that they've already proven that they 0:13:46.840 --> 0:13:49.760 can do. It's on Kellen Moore to make sure that 0:13:50.040 --> 0:13:53.040 the matchups are favorable for not just t Y Hilton, 0:13:53.080 --> 0:13:55.840 but across the board as he has been tasked with doing. 0:13:56.240 --> 0:13:58.200 And if he can do that for me, that makes 0:13:58.240 --> 0:14:00.719 the pressure on Dak Prescott secondary because then for Dak 0:14:00.720 --> 0:14:03.000 Prescott it's just about it's not about keen in on 0:14:03.040 --> 0:14:05.400 any one receiver. It's about seeing who has the better 0:14:05.440 --> 0:14:07.960 matchup pre snap, and then that's your first read, and 0:14:08.000 --> 0:14:10.040 then as it goes, as the play goes, you go 0:14:10.240 --> 0:14:12.480 progress throughout the reads if that first read is not there. 0:14:12.760 --> 0:14:16.880 So for me, it's it starts with where's t Y 0:14:17.080 --> 0:14:20.120 lining up? How many reps pery game is Ty Gilding getting, 0:14:20.360 --> 0:14:23.000 how many times is he called to be the primary 0:14:23.080 --> 0:14:26.160 target on any given route, so forth, and so on, 0:14:26.360 --> 0:14:31.040 And then it's on Dak Prescott to drop back and say, okay, matchup, 0:14:31.360 --> 0:14:33.960 Ty has the better matchup than CD, or CD has 0:14:33.960 --> 0:14:36.120 the better matchup, or Gallup has a better matchup than 0:14:36.320 --> 0:14:39.160 the other two. And that's kind of where it rolls 0:14:39.200 --> 0:14:42.160 downhill for me. But it starts with the offensive coordinator. 0:14:42.320 --> 0:14:44.680 It definitely does. I think Kellen Moore is under pressure 0:14:44.720 --> 0:14:47.800 to make it all work together. But is it a 0:14:47.840 --> 0:14:50.520 bad problem to have an extra receiver in the fold? 0:14:50.600 --> 0:14:54.480 Absolutely not, And t Y Hilton could add some clarity 0:14:54.520 --> 0:14:59.640 to a room where your veteran wide receiver is Noah 0:14:59.640 --> 0:15:02.280 Brown and James Washington like, those are your two veteran 0:15:02.280 --> 0:15:04.920 wide receivers. Even more so, I guess you could throw 0:15:05.000 --> 0:15:07.280 Michael Gallup into the fold there too, But those are 0:15:07.280 --> 0:15:09.400 the guys in your room that have done the most 0:15:09.400 --> 0:15:13.000 at the wide receiver position right this second, however, t 0:15:13.200 --> 0:15:15.480 Y Hilton adds to that he has twice as much 0:15:15.480 --> 0:15:18.160 experience nearly as a lot of the guys in the room, 0:15:18.200 --> 0:15:20.760 So I think that aspect too, it works out as well. 0:15:20.840 --> 0:15:23.080 Give us a call right now eight eight eight eight 0:15:23.160 --> 0:15:25.800 five five two two nine seven. We didn't get to 0:15:25.800 --> 0:15:27.800 take your calls on Tuesday, so we're gonna do it 0:15:27.840 --> 0:15:30.200 today here in this next segment. Give us a call 0:15:30.320 --> 0:15:33.000 eight eight five five two two nine seven. We'll be 0:15:33.000 --> 0:15:37.280 back with more talking cowboys right after this.

That's what happens whenever you don't you 0:18:22.160 --> 0:18:24.360 take one day off from shows, and your voice just 0:18:24.359 --> 0:18:27.960 decides to back out on you. All right, give us 0:18:28.000 --> 0:18:30.160 a call eight eight eight eight five five two two 0:18:30.240 --> 0:18:32.120 nine seven. We're gonna take a couple of calls today. 0:18:32.119 --> 0:18:34.080 We're not gonna go the whole show, but we are 0:18:34.080 --> 0:18:36.000 going to take this first segment. While we're waiting on 0:18:36.000 --> 0:18:39.359 a call here, Patrick, there was some practice squad news. 0:18:39.359 --> 0:18:42.400 It was it's not official yet but just rumored for 0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:45.399 an addition to practice squad if accurate, and it'll be 0:18:45.400 --> 0:18:47.879 confirmed here at some point today, but if accurate. UM 0:18:48.280 --> 0:18:53.639 nose tackle veteran nose tackle Anthony Rush has apparently joined 0:18:53.640 --> 0:18:57.800 the Cowboys practice squad. And this is per Anthony's ig 0:18:58.160 --> 0:19:01.880 story that he posted on yesterday, and just a quick 0:19:01.920 --> 0:19:04.480 background on him. He's only twenty six, so he used 0:19:04.520 --> 0:19:06.560 the word veteran loosely, but at the same time, he's 0:19:06.600 --> 0:19:08.879 a bit of a journeyman. He's had more importantly, or 0:19:09.160 --> 0:19:11.639 I should say more notably, he's had three stints with 0:19:11.680 --> 0:19:17.200 the Philadelphia Eagles, so maybe some inside knowledge against the 0:19:18.080 --> 0:19:21.200 top adversary in the division and conference on the way 0:19:21.240 --> 0:19:24.640 to the Cowboys. We'll see who they decide to release 0:19:25.080 --> 0:19:28.199 from the practice squad because obviously they're jam pack there, 0:19:28.240 --> 0:19:31.000 so you gotta delete one to add one. So and 0:19:31.680 --> 0:19:36.640 nose tackle wise, No, No, Jonathan Hanks, Jon Hankins. So 0:19:36.760 --> 0:19:38.920 Jerry Jones said on yesterday to one or five point 0:19:38.960 --> 0:19:41.880 three if him the fan that Jonathan Hankins, if he returns, 0:19:41.960 --> 0:19:43.960 it'll it'll be for the playoffs. He does not for 0:19:43.960 --> 0:19:47.520 see Jonathan Hankins returning before the playoffs. Still a good 0:19:47.600 --> 0:19:50.160 chance that it is for the playoffs. It's not worst 0:19:50.200 --> 0:19:53.560 case scenario, which is great, sounds like it. It is 0:19:53.600 --> 0:19:56.399 what is alleged, which is maybe a pick strain and 0:19:56.520 --> 0:19:59.080 not a torn pick, which would absolutely end his season. 0:19:59.240 --> 0:20:00.720 But if you go back you look at when the 0:20:00.720 --> 0:20:03.840 injury happened, it's easy to see how it happened. In 0:20:03.880 --> 0:20:06.760 his arm got contorted back by the falling ball carry 0:20:06.760 --> 0:20:10.720
