What you won three? And it's awesome, I'm 105 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 8: not saying that, but do you think free agency, which 106 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,600 Speaker 8: started I think in ninety three, or do you think 107 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 8: it was losing Jimmy. 108 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 1: Thanks Joe, thanks for the call. 109 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 6: That's great, that's a great question. 110 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 7: More and Joe, I think I believe it was both. Look, 111 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 7: first of all, you had Jimmy, who was the pillar 112 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,160 Speaker 7: of this this organization at the time. Look, and no 113 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 7: offense to Jerry. Jerry, you know, signed the checks. But 114 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,919 Speaker 7: Jerry was busy with doing a lot of corporate things 115 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 7: outside of the organization. Jimmy ran the day to day personnel. 116 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 7: He brought in guys, he cut players, he drafted the players, 117 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 7: and he didn't have to second gaze. I guess anybody 118 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 7: or take it to Jerry or anyone else to make 119 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 7: those decisions, it was he made the decisions personnel wise. 120 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 1: You're saying, I'm not saying, well, I'm just. 121 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,159 Speaker 6: Telling you I just the way, just wanted to be 122 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 6: clear who's. 123 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: Saying that this is me? 124 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:33,039 Speaker 7: I mean, I just felt like at that time and 125 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 7: that moment, you know, Jerry, look, Jerry's greatest owner of 126 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 7: all time for all that he's done. But if we 127 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 7: were talking about what took place in the early nineties, 128 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 7: Jimmy did a lot of made a lot of. 129 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 6: Those personnel decisions. 130 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 7: So when when when Jimmy left, I thought the first 131 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 7: thing that really happened to us was we didn't draft 132 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 7: that well in the later rounds, So you weren't picking 133 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 7: up the Leon Letts and the Eric Williams and those 134 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,719 Speaker 7: type of guys. And I think that that part of 135 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 7: it really hurt us. And it was at the same 136 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 7: time where free agency was pilling that pilling us back 137 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 7: at the same time, I mean, we were losing guys, 138 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 7: uh we you know guys that were you know, the 139 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 7: Kenny Gantz of the worlds who end up going to 140 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 7: Tampa you know, we couldn't backfill those those players, and 141 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 7: I can't tell you. I mean we always talked about 142 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 7: the star players. Yeah, you have star players, but when 143 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 7: you have a personnel, the guys that really understand their 144 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 7: role within the scheme and within the team, that's when 145 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,919 Speaker 7: you become a championship team. And we lost those guys, 146 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 7: We lost those small players, and you started losing the 147 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 7: step Navskis of the world and those type of guys, 148 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 7: and we just didn't do enough to backfill that, and 149 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 7: things started. 150 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 6: To get a lot looser. 151 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 7: Yeah, in the end, Look, Jimmy, Jimmy ran a tough program, 152 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 7: he really did. And you know, we had a lot 153 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 7: of crazy personalities as you can, as you well know. 154 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 7: But Jimmy did a great job of putting his thumb 155 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 7: on us, knowing how we were going to operate, when 156 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:57,280 Speaker 7: to take his thumb off of us. 157 00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 6: So, you know, I think it was a little bit 158 00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 6: of both. But yeah, there's a tough time, man, it 159 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:03,039 Speaker 6: really was. 160 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 7: I firmly feel if Jimmy Johnson was still the head coach, 161 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 7: we would at least. 162 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 6: Four straight. 163 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 1: You're the only You're then that didn't sit. 164 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 6: Well with you. 165 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 7: Well, you know, there's a little nerves there when I 166 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 7: when I when, I mean, you talk. 167 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 5: About that kind of stuff. Yeah, uh there. You're the 168 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 5: only player in Cowboys history to play for five different 169 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 5: head coaches. And you know, I don't know if that's 170 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 5: gonna change. Honestly, you might. That might last for a while, 171 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 5: because I do know the Cowboys don't really want to 172 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 5: change out coaches that quickly because the continuity and players 173 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 5: switch out a lot more so it's gonna be hard 174 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 5: to stay.

I still feel like there's improvement there. 223 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 9: And but I'm gonna say going forward, I feel confident 224 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 9: that if we need a starter to rest, I feel 225 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 9: like somebody could step in and a plug in for 226 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 9: a week or two if need to be like towards 227 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:25,560 Speaker 9: the end of the season. But I still feel like 228 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 9: we might need add another piece to the offensive line 229 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 9: just for safety security, blanket for the trade deadline. But 230 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 9: also I'm gonna ask you, Darren, what would it be 231 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 9: like with Michael Parsons on the team of the ninety 232 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 9: two ninety three defense that you plaid in alongside Charles 233 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 9: Tayley and Tony Tolbert, And what it would be like 234 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 9: with you alongside him doing the things that you did. 235 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 7: Man, look right, Thanks Brian, that's a great, great question, 236 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,319 Speaker 7: and it was a TJ bast They did the filled 237 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 7: in this past week. 238 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 5: Man, Yeah, after you know, you don't get started and 239 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,559 Speaker 5: then Bass filled in and filled in. Yeah, Zach Martin 240 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:11,079 Speaker 5: went out too. 241 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 7: And I kind of agree with what you're saying, Ryan, 242 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 7: I think that, you know, you got to add depth 243 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 7: at that offensive line. I think what we're seeing defensively 244 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 7: is that they have a lot of depth, and bringing 245 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,719 Speaker 7: guys off the bench has been, you know, been on 246 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 7: their strengths. I always, I always felt, continue to fill 247 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 7: you win games in the trenches, and if your offensive 248 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:31,719 Speaker 7: line can block and you can get the running game 249 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:35,199 Speaker 7: going throughout the season, you can always keep defenses off balance. 250 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 7: So yeah, depth at that position is is is what 251 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 7: they definitely need. 252 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 5: Before you answer the mic apart, I mean, because it's 253 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 5: a different era. Where does Mike play. 254 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 7: Everywhere anywhere that he wants to play, anywhere he wants 255 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:53,320 Speaker 7: to play. Look, look, I'm the the old guy who's 256 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 7: not going to say, well, you know, these guys are 257 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 7: soft and these guys couldn't play with us. 258 00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 6: Are you out of your minds? 259 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 7: The number number eleven could have played in any era 260 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 7: he would have started in any era and he would 261 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 7: have been the best player on the field. 262 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 6: I mean, he this guy. 263 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 7: It is amazing to watch Micah Parson's first step and 264 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:19,840 Speaker 7: his awareness and his ability to attack the quarterback and 265 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,319 Speaker 7: attack the tackle or the guard or what I. 266 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 6: Mean he is. 267 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,960 Speaker 7: He is one of the most dominant players that I 268 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 7: can remember watching. I remember when Dion Sanders came in 269 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 7: and my first time coming in as a rookie, he 270 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 7: was in Atlanta and watching him walk around on the 271 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 7: field when it was with the Atlanta Falcons and going 272 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 7: what's all the hooplah? 273 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 6: Until I saw him and I was like, Okay, I 274 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 6: get it. Like his entire side of the field is 275 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 6: he's owning it. 276 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 1: That story you told me about his first practice or. 277 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 6: One of his first practices. 278 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 7: He shows up first practice and someone catches we were 279 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 7: doing one on ones and we have five five defensive 280 00:12:58,040 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 7: back on one side and on the other side you 281 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,200 Speaker 7: have five defense the backs and you guys are going 282 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 7: one on one with the wife. 283 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 6: It's a quick drill. 284 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 7: He was like one after the other and someone they 285 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,560 Speaker 7: run a quick five route on him and they complete 286 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 7: the pass and he walks to the sideline and all 287 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 7: the defensive backs who were supposed to go right after him, 288 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 7: he tells them, you go to the other side of 289 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 7: the field. I'm locking this stuff down over here. He 290 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:22,440 Speaker 7: didn't see, but I'm locking this down over here. And 291 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:28,199 Speaker 7: he basically took every rep, like ten straight reps and 292 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 7: locked it down like I've. 293 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 6: Never seen anything like it. Wow, nobody caught a ball 294 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 6: on that side. 295 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 7: He pressed, he played off, he did everything, and it 296 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 7: was just amazing to see. But he was one of 297 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:45,679 Speaker 7: those those players h LT. Watching him with the Giants 298 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 7: early on, I just thought that he's he was a 299 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,960 Speaker 7: childhood hero because he dominated the game right. Michael Parsons 300 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 7: is a guy, and I think we're starting to see 301 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 7: the maturation process. He came in his first year, he 302 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 7: was playing linebacker. He rushed here and there. Second year 303 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,840 Speaker 7: kind of the same, probably use them more as the 304 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 7: defensive end and is a pass rusher. This year, you're 305 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:13,440 Speaker 7: seeing him really mature as far as mentally in understanding 306 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:13,959 Speaker 7: the game. 307 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 6: Like the game is. 308 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 7: Slowed all the way down for him. He knows what 309 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 7: he's doing. Uh, he doesn't have to think about anything. 310 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 7: He's playing multiple positions, which I just I that's what 311 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 7: I admire about that because I've done multiple positions and 312 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 7: it's dude, it's it's a it's a lot of work 313 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 7: because you're you have to transform your mind behind to go, Okay, 314 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 7: I'm playing safety this position and playing corner this position. Okay, 315 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 7: now I'm playing actually the will linebacker in this time. 316 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 7: You know, you got to the game. You're always thinking, thinking, think. 317 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 7: He's not thinking anymore. He's just being a football player. 318 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 7: And then they bring in depth and bringing Sam Williams 319 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 7: to spell them, and he sits on the sideline for 320 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 7: a few reps and doesn't get those reps, and he. 321 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 6: Gets energized, he gets mad. I want to be back 322 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 6: out there. He's got energy now. 323 00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 7: And then he goes back out there and you give 324 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 7: him a straight player and that I just think this 325 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 7: guy's he's a joy to watch, man, He really is. 326 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: He sir is. 327 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, He's one of those guys that when he's out 328 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 5: there on defense, I'm watching him from the press box, 329 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 5: you know the quarterbacks. 330 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 6: Oh yeah, so he could have played in any era any. 331 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 5: Are all right, Chris and Mississippi will go to the line, Chris, 332 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 5: what's up man? 333 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 10: How you doing? 334 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 11: Man?

Okay, will you please 348 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 11: promise me that you will do this show for three 349 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 11: or four hours to let us long suffering Cowboys and 350 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 11: to just rejoice with you of course, of course. 351 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 1: All right, man, all right, thanks Chris for the call. 352 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 1: Thank you. 353 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 5: Probably in the offseason we're gonna have a little bit 354 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 5: longer show. But who knows, maybe maybe what you just 355 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 5: said will have happened to Who knows people compare players 356 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 5: to you? 357 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 8: Do they? 358 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 5: I mean, I haven't really heard that a lot. Honestly, 359 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 5: maybe I'm biased. I mean, we haven't had another Darren Windson. 360 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 6: Like that. I don't know on this roster. I think, 361 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 6: like if you. 362 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 1: Look at donovand Wilson is what he said. 363 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, Wilson Curse. 364 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, Curse comes the tight end a lot. 365 00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 7: I see him motioning over and matching up. 366 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 5: I mean there's look, could Curse could curse Chase Down 367 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 5: the best wide receiver in the game. 368 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:05,880 Speaker 7: I don't think you asked him to do that. I'm 369 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,360 Speaker 7: not sure if he can, but that's not right they're 370 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:09,400 Speaker 7: tasking him to do. 371 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 5: That's what made you so different because I've seen you 372 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,920 Speaker 5: walk Jerry Rice down. I've seen you do that, seen 373 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:18,160 Speaker 5: you cover Jerry. I've seen that. So it's just it's 374 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 5: a tough comparison, really is it is? 375 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:20,439 Speaker 6: And I don't know. 376 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 7: Look, I remember coming into the league and there weren't 377 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 7: any safeties outside of Carnell Lake. Carnell Lake was a 378 00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 7: guy with the Steelers who was a linebacker in college. 379 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 7: I went to it played safety and I watched him 380 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:37,919 Speaker 7: cover wide receivers, whether it be outside or inside or whatnot. 381 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 7: And he was probably the first one, but he ended 382 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 7: up being a corner. They ended up just moving him 383 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 7: out there. I don't know if there. 384 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:46,479 Speaker 6: Was a guy who did what I did. 385 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 7: I mean my entire career, I just I don't know, 386 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 7: played multiple positions like that. But I think there's some 387 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:54,400 Speaker 7: players that that probably have the ability, they just weren't 388 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 7: asked to do it. 389 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,399 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame voters pay attention. 390 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 5: Wake up, Actually, yeah, wake up, because it's unbelievable. I agree, 391 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:05,960 Speaker 5: one of the biggest snubs of in the history of it. 392 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 5: And uh, you know, I I think I think it's coming. 393 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 1: I really do. 394 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:09,919 Speaker 10: I know. 395 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:10,880 Speaker 1: I know you were there. 396 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 5: I know you were there last year, you were you 397 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 5: were closed to knock on the door. It looks like 398 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 5: safeties are getting in, so I think it's going to happen. 399 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 1: So all right, David and fort Worth. David, what's up? 400 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 8: Man? 401 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:24,160 Speaker 1: You're on with Darren Woodson? 402 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 9: Yes, sir, Yes, sir. 403 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 2: How you doing, Nick? 404 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 8: How you doing? 405 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:28,120 Speaker 6: Mister Woodson doing great? 406 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 1: David? 407 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 10: Awesome? 408 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:31,399 Speaker 2: Awesome.

I mean for a long time I 412 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 2: played safety myself whenever I was in high school. Uh, 413 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 2: so close to going to the NFL, I just kind of. 414 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 9: Sucked so I didn't. 415 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 12: But uh, yeah, so we have well, I think we. 416 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 2: Have a three headed monster, maybe even developing four or five. 417 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 2: I mean, we have great safeties right now, and I 418 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 2: feel like it in recent years. Uh maybe not too recent, 419 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 2: but it's been a little bit of a weakness. 420 00:18:58,440 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 13: You know, we had. 421 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,679 Speaker 2: Barry Church and Roy Williams, and I heard you were 422 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,640 Speaker 2: pretty good yourself, sir.

And when I talked, when we've talked 435 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 7: about the safety position here with the Cowboys, they were 436 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:38,160 Speaker 7: really thin. They've always been thin in years past. This 437 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 7: is the deepest bunch. Like I'm trying to figure out, 438 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 7: who do you dress out? 439 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know about that when Donovan 440 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: comes back, I don't know what. 441 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:48,360 Speaker 6: They're gonna Marquise Bell has showed, right. 442 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 1: Thomas, Yeah, funny field goal changed the whole whole game. 443 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 6: Yes, I mean you have. 444 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,119 Speaker 7: I mean, of course you got cursed, you got and 445 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:59,360 Speaker 7: who's the vocal leader and he can match up great matchup. 446 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,439 Speaker 7: We know you got hooker in the middle of the field, 447 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 7: who's basically the quarterback of that defense. 448 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 6: And they just signed him, right, they signed him up. Yeah, So, 449 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:10,400 Speaker 6: I mean the. 450 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 7: Depth at that position has been incredible, man. I think 451 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 7: that's one of the strengths of this team, and it 452 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 7: allows dan Quinn to do so much with the great 453 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,440 Speaker 7: It's like this chess matchup. You know what this guy 454 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,920 Speaker 7: does well, like when we bring him in in rundowns 455 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 7: or whatnot. 456 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:28,120 Speaker 6: I just I am. I am so high on this group. 457 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 10: Man. 458 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 7: Look, I've been a pessimist about that position for the 459 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 7: longest time. 460 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 6: I always felt like the Cowboys didn't do enough well. 461 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 7: They've addressed the position and you know I'm always I'm 462 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 7: I'm I'm all the way in their corner. Man, I 463 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 7: think this is the best group of safeties in the league, 464 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 7: hands down, hands down, And it's not even close. It's 465 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:51,679 Speaker 7: not even close. They can all play multiple positions. They 466 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 7: come up and make big plays, and we're not even 467 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:58,439 Speaker 7: talking about like at the cover position, at the nickelback position. 468 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,120 Speaker 7: When you got Jordan Lewis, who I mean, Jordan played 469 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 7: a little bit last week, didn't It was a scratch yeah, 470 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 7: the first week, right, I mean, the trade dead lines 471 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 7: coming up, I would not be surprised because there's value. 472 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 7: There's so much value in that room right now because 473 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 7: they can all play. Man, I don't know what's going 474 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 7: to happen. I'd like to keep them all. But in reality, man, 475 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:24,680 Speaker 7: there's some there's some draft picks that are sitting there. 476 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 1: Okay, okay, you're talking about making trade for a draft pick. 477 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 7: I wish, Paul, I would like to keep them all. 478 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:31,640 Speaker 7: Of course, like they're all the toys. 479 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:32,440 Speaker 6: Ready to do so much. 480 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 5: We got to let you go because I know that 481 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 5: you're so busy and we're going to take a break. 482 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 5: But I do want to ask you this.

Who's that team that matches up with us? 505 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 7: I'm circling that game.

And I know 692 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 5: he could still play. I mean, I mean, I'm sure 693 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 5: he still could if he wanted to. He says no way, 694 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 5: but I bet he could.

But 699 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 12: now that was a cherry on top. That was Yeah, 700 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 12: you got me hooked. I was actually gonna I was 701 00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 12: actually gonna tease him about being a Steelers fan growing up. 702 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 5: Yes, but I saw that, And did you see that 703 00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,479 Speaker 5: in the worst stories that we did. 704 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 10: I did. 705 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 12: Yeah, So it might be a blessing in disguise in 706 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 12: case I ever seen in person one day, Probably a 707 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 12: good thing I didn't do that. But yeah, no, if 708 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 12: we want to shift gears here, I'm curious. So we 709 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 12: got to see Schoonmaker a little bit early on in 710 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 12: the game last week, as well as Deuce, and I'm 711 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 12: just wondering, I mean, do you think the coaches is 712 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:22,120 Speaker 12: this a plan on their part as far as ramping 713 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 12: those guys up? 714 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think so. 715 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,720 Speaker 5: I mean I think Schoonmaker, I mean they drafted him 716 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 5: second round. I mean they drafted him thinking that he 717 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 5: would have a role. I would imagine, you know, he 718 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:33,960 Speaker 5: got set back a little bit in training camp with 719 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:36,320 Speaker 5: with you know, an injury. I think he's going to 720 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 5: be you know, mixed in there, right now I think 721 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 5: they still put Ferguson in an hindershot with a little 722 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 5: bit more snaps, but they'll they'll work him in. Schoonmaker 723 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,080 Speaker 5: had the rare stat line the other day of just 724 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 5: ones across the board one target, one catch, one yard, 725 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 5: one yard average, one touchdown. 726 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 1: I mean, just boom. That's that's how you do it. 727 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 5: So I think Schoonmaker is going to continue to be 728 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:01,959 Speaker 5: there because I do think he's going to be your 729 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 5: better blocker of all of them, and and and that's 730 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 5: why they drafted him there because he could be that guy. 731 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 5: Plus he's he's got some some wiggle to him, and 732 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 5: he can he can catch the ball. He's gonna he's 733 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 5: gonna work himself into it, and he'll probably be getting 734 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 5: a lot of snaps here before too long. Same with Deuce, 735 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 5: you know, just finding a role with Deuce. All right, 736 00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 5: Al in Mercle Texas. Al, what's up? 737 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:24,760 Speaker 10: Hey man? 738 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 8: What's going on? 739 00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:26,160 Speaker 6: Much? 740 00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 17: Man? 741 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 1: How are you? 742 00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,600 Speaker 17: I'm going all right? I just hate that I've missed 743 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 17: your shows the last two days. But I'm actually off 744 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 17: of the coast of Belize right now. 745 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 1: Oh wow, wow, you're coming in. 746 00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 17: Yeah, we're playing the cruise along the lines of that game. 747 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 17: I didn't get to see all of the games Sunday, 748 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 17: but it was a it was a pretty much of 749 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 17: a beat down. I just want I just want to 750 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 17: say that I think our offense is gonna step up when. 751 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 6: It needs to. 752 00:32:55,840 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 17: And that's good and bad because uh hopefully, you know, 753 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:05,080 Speaker 17: we always say in sports and music is like a game, 754 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 17: just turn it on and turn it off. You got 755 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 17: to be ready to, you know, give your best all 756 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 17: all of the time. But I think the now the 757 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 17: Cowboys are in that phase of you know, turning it 758 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 17: off and turn it off, and I hope it doesn't 759 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 17: come back to buy this in the butt. 760 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:22,160 Speaker 5: Yeah you know, well I think you can. I mean, 761 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 5: I don't think they're really turning it off. I mean, 762 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,080 Speaker 5: maybe they're at the end of the of the game, 763 00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 5: they were just going, let's let's run this thing out 764 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 5: and let's don't let's don't get cute or anything. But 765 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:34,760 Speaker 5: I think, you know, one play here, one play there 766 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:38,800 Speaker 5: of them scoring and getting in the red zone and 767 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,480 Speaker 5: making plays. I mean, I think that that changes everyone's 768 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 5: perception a little bit. I don't think they've really turned 769 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,560 Speaker 5: it off. There, they'll they'll they'll be there and but 770 00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:50,640 Speaker 5: I do think it's just a different mentality. Now you 771 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 5: you know your defense is going to play the way 772 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 5: it's playing, then the smart thing is just to lean 773 00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 5: on that lean on that defense, don't be you know, 774 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:01,960 Speaker 5: don't be done with the football, be smart. And I 775 00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 5: think that they can continue to do that. All right, 776 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:10,600 Speaker 5: Vince in Albuquerque? Evince, what's up? Since either? 777 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:12,200 Speaker 18: Yeah? 778 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:12,759 Speaker 1: What's up? 779 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,919 Speaker 18: Oh? Not too much? Great show? Once again, thanks so much. 780 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 18: I think your show is probably the best of all 781 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 18: of them. If I want to get the weather report 782 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 18: all this, mickey, But that's cool. I got a question 783 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:29,279 Speaker 18: for you. Uh, you know how everybody thinks about after 784 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:31,360 Speaker 18: four games, that's what our team is going to look like. 785 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 18: A right, but since it only has three games in 786 00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 18: the preseason to go, maybe the fifth game or is 787 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:38,840 Speaker 18: that really true? 788 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 5: What do you think about we really find out, you know, 789 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:44,520 Speaker 5: where where this team is. 790 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:45,320 Speaker 1: Is that what you're asking? 791 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,920 Speaker 18: Yes, exactly after four games? Five games? Is that the 792 00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:50,600 Speaker 18: team that's going to be the rest of the season? 793 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:51,560 Speaker 14: Uh? 794 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:52,279 Speaker 6: You know, I don't. 795 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:54,680 Speaker 5: I won't go that far because I do think you know, 796 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:57,319 Speaker 5: we've seen things change throughout the year, and you know, 797 00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:59,400 Speaker 5: second half of the year, you know you would depending 798 00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 5: on injuries can can change all that. But I think 799 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 5: the first month of the season does is that it's 800 00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:08,080 Speaker 5: not just what the Cowboys are, it's what everyone is. 801 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:11,879 Speaker 5: And so when you find out what the Giants are, 802 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 5: you know, if the Jets win the next two games 803 00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:18,160 Speaker 5: and they're sitting there at three and one, and you're thinking, well, 804 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,640 Speaker 5: that wins a lot better than I thought. If everybody 805 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 5: beats the Giants, and the Giants you know, of course 806 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:25,319 Speaker 5: they did beat the Cardinals, but if you know, if 807 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:27,919 Speaker 5: they're sitting at one and three, then you're forty to nothing, 808 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 5: win doesn't look as good. So you just kind of 809 00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 5: you don't really know what anything is just yet, you 810 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,439 Speaker 5: just have two games for everyone. Once you get through 811 00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:38,080 Speaker 5: in early October, now you're starting to kind of see 812 00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,319 Speaker 5: what the trends are around the league, see what these 813 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:42,560 Speaker 5: other teams are, and you kind of know, you know, 814 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:45,560 Speaker 5: some of these wins look better or worse than what 815 00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:48,239 Speaker 5: they were, but you know, that's just kind of the 816 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:51,279 Speaker 5: nature of it. That's kind of how things are going 817 00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:55,279 Speaker 5: to be. Before we get another caller here, just want 818 00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:57,759 Speaker 5: to go through, you know, injury port wise, we'll see 819 00:35:57,760 --> 00:35:59,640 Speaker 5: what the guys get to do today at practice, guys 820 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:01,279 Speaker 5: were mind touring. Of course, are the ones that have 821 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:05,520 Speaker 5: been out Tyler Smith, Donovan Wilson, uh and Brandon Cooks. 822 00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:08,239 Speaker 5: Those three guys will see what they're able to do. 823 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:11,239 Speaker 5: I have a feeling that that all three of them 824 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:13,319 Speaker 5: have a chance to play in this game, and just 825 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 5: imagine what that will look like once they go to Arizona. 826 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:17,880 Speaker 5: All right, Brian in Pennsylvania is our next caller? 827 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:21,520 Speaker 1: Brian? What's up? How you doing great? How are you, Brian? 828 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:24,239 Speaker 3: I'm doing great, man.

He he fainted. 837 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 5: He fainted on the on the there in the middle 838 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:43,319 Speaker 5: of the play with Michael Parson's got the ball and 839 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:45,680 Speaker 5: looked like he was going to score, just so crazy 840 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:47,000 Speaker 5: right there on the sideline. 841 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:47,640 Speaker 1: Uh. 842 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:49,960 Speaker 5: He he just kind of he went down just for 843 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,040 Speaker 5: a second. He was he was fine by the time 844 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:53,919 Speaker 5: that that play was over and all that he he'd 845 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 5: kind of was you know, it came to but just 846 00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:58,799 Speaker 5: kind of a weird scary deal for a second there. Yea, 847 00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:01,520 Speaker 5: but yeah, he's he he's doing pretty good resting if 848 00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 5: last I heard, he was resting at home. Not sure 849 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,600 Speaker 5: how much they're going to rush him back, but yeah, yeah, 850 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 5: it was kind of a scary deal. 851 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, it kind of was got me thinking. You know, 852 00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 3: we talk a lot about the job that Will McClay 853 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 3: does right, and everybody else is talking about all the 854 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,799 Speaker 3: great defense and all the talent that we have. 855 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:20,759 Speaker 10: I don't think we. 856 00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 3: Give enough credit to aid and Dirty, you know what 857 00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:25,600 Speaker 3: he's done with this line throughout the years, and Joe 858 00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:29,760 Speaker 3: Witt junior with the past game coordinator, and also Nick Salari, 859 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:31,799 Speaker 3: you know, the new offensive line coach that came in 860 00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:35,640 Speaker 3: because we had two we had our second second string 861 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 3: guard come out for our third string and then Zach 862 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:42,719 Speaker 3: Martin came out and Austin Richards plugged in and we 863 00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 3: were still able to effectively, you know, move the ball. 864 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:49,120 Speaker 3: It didn't become a liability. So I was wondering this 865 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:52,000 Speaker 3: year possibly being a historic Here are you thinking about 866 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 3: like shedding some light on those coaches? Al Harris all 867 00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:58,080 Speaker 3: the guys right there in the trenches with everybody. Yeah, 868 00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 3: because I just think they do a job. Bill McClay 869 00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:03,799 Speaker 3: does get talent in here. But the player development has 870 00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 3: happened in the past few years is all because of 871 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 3: guys like Aiden, you know, and Al Harris, and I 872 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:11,719 Speaker 3: just wanted to kind of know what you. 873 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:14,719 Speaker 5: I think that's a great I think that's a great point. 874 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:18,160 Speaker 5: I think it's an overlooked point. And and you know, 875 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:22,440 Speaker 5: part of that. One of the reasons why it's overlooked 876 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:26,319 Speaker 5: is that's kind of by design. I mean, we know 877 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:29,920 Speaker 5: how this thing works. We know that the visibility helps 878 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:31,919 Speaker 5: you know, you it's kind of an out of side, 879 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:34,799 Speaker 5: out of mind, and assistant coaches aren't really allowed to 880 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,239 Speaker 5: talk to the media there. You don't see that, you 881 00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:39,840 Speaker 5: don't see them. It happens a little bit of training camp, 882 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 5: but for the most part it doesn't, and so they 883 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 5: do get overlooked. And that's that's kind of the nature 884 00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:50,319 Speaker 5: of it. But also too is it also there's a 885 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:52,399 Speaker 5: reason for that as well, because you want to make 886 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:54,719 Speaker 5: sure that you're not getting a lot of sources. You 887 00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:58,080 Speaker 5: don't get guys talking to other you know, different relationships 888 00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:00,239 Speaker 5: in the media and things like that, So you want 889 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 5: to keep it kind of tight, and that's one way 890 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:04,480 Speaker 5: to do it. But yeah, it does hurt him a 891 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:06,719 Speaker 5: little bit. You do kind of forget about those guys, 892 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:08,440 Speaker 5: and you're right, Aid and Dirty has done a great 893 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 5: job of those defensive line. Al Harris, you know, I 894 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:14,560 Speaker 5: think has has their respect for sure, because not only 895 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:17,320 Speaker 5: did he play for mccarthury, he played corner, but he 896 00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:20,080 Speaker 5: played with swag. He played the way that that you 897 00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 5: know that they want them to play. Be aggressive with 898 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 5: the ball, go out and go get the football so 899 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:26,200 Speaker 5: you can go down the line. A lot of those 900 00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:28,239 Speaker 5: assistant coaches have been really good, and I'm glad that 901 00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 5: you pointed that out. 902 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,160 Speaker 1: Kurt in Arkansas is our next caller. Kurt. What's up? 903 00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:33,839 Speaker 10: Hey, Nick? How are you doing? 904 00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:35,080 Speaker 1: I'm great? How are you? 905 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:35,439 Speaker 6: Kurt? 906 00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:40,960 Speaker 10: All right? I hated missing way because someone to ask him, 907 00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:43,520 Speaker 10: he would say he was a Steelers fan. I wanted 908 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:46,319 Speaker 10: to see what he thought of Troy Polam. That's true 909 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 10: because I always draded when the Cowboys were going to 910 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:53,360 Speaker 10: play the Steelers during Troyce when he was in his prime. 911 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:57,560 Speaker 5: No doubt I thought for Kurt, I thought at one 912 00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:00,799 Speaker 5: point and I don't remember what year. I thought he 913 00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:04,239 Speaker 5: was the best player in football. I kind of as 914 00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:04,800 Speaker 5: a wizard. 915 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:07,080 Speaker 1: I really thought he was good. 916 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:09,520 Speaker 5: He would he'd be at the line of scrimmage, he'd 917 00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 5: be way back eating an interception. He'd fly over the top. 918 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:14,800 Speaker 5: I mean, he was like he played like a Jedi. 919 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:15,400 Speaker 6: He was. 920 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:16,320 Speaker 1: He was awesome. 921 00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:19,920 Speaker 10: And when those receivers went across the middle, they had 922 00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:21,360 Speaker 10: to ed Troy True. 923 00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 5: Yep, he was a big time hitter. He can do it, 924 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:25,600 Speaker 5: he can do everything. He was a really, really good player. 925 00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,239 Speaker 5: All right, thanks for the call, Kurt. We're gonna try 926 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:31,960 Speaker 5: to sneak one in real quick. One more called Lucky 927 00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,520 Speaker 5: Wilson in Indianapolis, tenth caller. 928 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:38,759 Speaker 13: Hey, how you doing, man, I'm good, I'm good. At 929 00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 13: last time I talked to you, I think Wade Phillips 930 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 13: was coaching the team. 931 00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:43,440 Speaker 10: Wow, it's been a minute. 932 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:43,799 Speaker 18: It's been a while. 933 00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:47,840 Speaker 13: Okay, everything, Everything's good. 934 00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 8: Okay. 935 00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:53,359 Speaker 13: My question my question is what what what? What are 936 00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:56,680 Speaker 13: your concerns about the Cardinals? I mean, uh, any any 937 00:40:56,719 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 13: chance of the Cowboys letting up because they're pretty weak 938 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:02,920 Speaker 13: as far as i'm uh so, what are your concerns 939 00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:05,120 Speaker 13: about the Cardinals? Is anything we should be concerned about 940 00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:05,439 Speaker 13: with them. 941 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:08,759 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I was kind of wondering if I was 942 00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:11,200 Speaker 5: going to get any call about the Cardinals this week. 943 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:13,960 Speaker 5: I'm seriously, I was kind of wondering that because, uh, 944 00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,959 Speaker 5: you're right, I mean Cowboys, it looks like that they're 945 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:19,880 Speaker 5: gonna be way better than them, and they should go 946 00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:22,839 Speaker 5: out and they win. With the concerns or this, look 947 00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:25,040 Speaker 5: at the look at what they're doing. They're they're playing hard. 948 00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:28,279 Speaker 5: That's that's and and you could say, oh, well, you 949 00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:30,640 Speaker 5: know everyone should do it. Well, they don't have the 950 00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:33,319 Speaker 5: talent that other teams do, but they are going out 951 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:37,160 Speaker 5: right now. They they probably could have beaten Washington. They 952 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:40,120 Speaker 5: definitely could have should have beaten the Giants. They they 953 00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:43,520 Speaker 5: had that game. So they're they're playing hard. And I 954 00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:45,439 Speaker 5: do know this, every time you go to Arizona, something 955 00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:49,560 Speaker 5: something's gonna happen, something quirky, something different, special team touchdown, 956 00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:52,800 Speaker 5: defensive touchdown, miss kicks here and there. Who knows, it'll 957 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,200 Speaker 5: be something. It's not always been good for the Cowboys either, 958 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:57,680 Speaker 5: So I think that what what you know they'll do 959 00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 5: is if if you get and Josh Robs can probably 960 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:02,759 Speaker 5: move as well. So when you look at what's hurt 961 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:03,800 Speaker 5: this Cowboys team. 962 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 1: And the defense. 963 00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:06,920 Speaker 5: If there's been anything, it's been quarterback quarterbacks that know 964 00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:09,879 Speaker 5: how to move in the pocket, get first downs, keep 965 00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:12,120 Speaker 5: drives alive. That they should be off the field, but 966 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:14,680 Speaker 5: they're moving. They're moving, and they're getting points. And turnovers 967 00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:16,000 Speaker 5: are going to hurt the team. The only thing I 968 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 5: think will really beat the Cowboys or the Cowboys. If 969 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:23,200 Speaker 5: the Cowboys have turnovers hurt themselves play like that, then no, 970 00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:25,040 Speaker 5: I think I think that's going to be an issue. 971 00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:27,200 Speaker 5: But if they play sound football like they've been playing, 972 00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:29,200 Speaker 5: I think that they will. They will win this game. 973 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:32,759 Speaker 5: I mean, and they'll probably win pretty comfortably. But you 974 00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:34,480 Speaker 5: have to get there. You have to get there. And 975 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:36,799 Speaker 5: that's what I keep saying all all you know all 976 00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:40,000 Speaker 5: week is that that's the test for me is and 977 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:42,799 Speaker 5: it's today. If you're going to lose to the Cardinals, 978 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:46,839 Speaker 5: you lose today, you lose tomorrow. You lose when you're 979 00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:49,360 Speaker 5: not focused and you're not paying attention in the meetings 980 00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:51,920 Speaker 5: and you don't see exactly what the Cardinals like to 981 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 5: do with their tight ends. Speaking of is zach Ertz, 982 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:56,440 Speaker 5: He's caught six passes in each of the last two games. 983 00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:59,120 Speaker 5: So remember him obviously with Philly for so long, but 984 00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:03,120 Speaker 5: he's found a little something there connection with Dobbs. So 985 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:05,640 Speaker 5: you know, but you have to be focused, and you 986 00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 5: focus in the middle of the week. We say it 987 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:08,719 Speaker 5: all the time. That's how you lose games in the 988 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 5: middle of the week and if you're not as focused 989 00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:14,560 Speaker 5: as you possibly could be. And it's and it's not easy. 990 00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:16,879 Speaker 5: It's not easy. I mean, the noise is out there. 991 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 5: I've got a screen right here that I could see myself. 992 00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:21,400 Speaker 5: I got a screen over here where I see NFL 993 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:23,680 Speaker 5: network And it's one of the chances Michael Parsons could 994 00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:28,520 Speaker 5: win MVP for twenty twenty three MVP. That's that's in 995 00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:32,880 Speaker 5: January when when that's announced. Not defensive MVP, but MVP. 996 00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:35,600 Speaker 5: But but you know, you want him to kind of 997 00:43:35,640 --> 00:43:38,839 Speaker 5: focus and it's tough to do because that's where the 998 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 5: you know, everything is. But look, we're gonna stay grounded, 999 00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:44,160 Speaker 5: We're gonna be focused. Let's see if Michah Parsons can 1000 00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:48,080 Speaker 5: win NFC Defensive Player of the Week. That won't get 1001 00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:50,319 Speaker 5: announced for the next fifteen minutes, but if it does, 1002 00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:54,040 Speaker 5: maybe Micah could win that. Not not breaking any news, 1003 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:56,960 Speaker 5: just saying could be something down the pipe. That's what 1004 00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:58,640 Speaker 5: we need to be thinking of. Try to keep it 1005 00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:00,640 Speaker 5: as focused as possible, but it's not easy when the 1006 00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 5: Cowboys are playing like that, all right. I gotta thank 1007 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:04,799 Speaker 5: Darren Woodson for coming by him. If we can get 1008 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:08,560 Speaker 5: him in every week, that would be awesome. We'll try 1009 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:10,880 Speaker 5: because it's so much fun there, and I know you 1010 00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:12,719 Speaker 5: guys got a chance to call. 1011 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:14,759 Speaker 1: A few of you did. Maybe we can. 1012 00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:16,560 Speaker 5: We can figure out a way to get him in 1013 00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 5: here and we can get some more calls as well. 1014 00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:21,799 Speaker 5: For Chris Beam, Darren Woodson, I'm Nick Eaman.
