  Speaker 1: The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com

  Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: Cowboys.
• 0:11
  Speaker 3: This is Cowboys Storyline, presented by Gillette, the official shave
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: of the Dallas Cowboys.
• 0:19
  Speaker 4: Here's Nick Eatman, What's up?
• 0:24
  Speaker 5: Welcome to Cowboys Storyline and presented by Gillette. Wednesday, November
• 0:28
  Speaker 5: the fifth, I'm Nick Eatman. Let's talk Cowboy football. Headed
• 0:32
  Speaker 5: into the bye week, but got stuff to talk about.
• 0:35
  Speaker 5: I was asked about the mood of the of the
• 0:39
  Speaker 5: building yesterday when I was doing a radio show just now,
• 0:42
  Speaker 5: and I said, it's about as good as you could
• 0:45
  Speaker 5: possibly have a Tuesday after a home loss to the
• 0:49
  Speaker 5: Cardinals on Monday Night football. It's about as good as
• 0:52
  Speaker 5: the Tuesday as you could possibly have. I think there
• 0:54
  Speaker 5: is excitement just the fact that the Cowboys did something.
• 0:57
  Speaker 5: Now on did they make a trade earlier in the
• 0:59
  Speaker 5: day for Logan Wilson, linebacker Cincinnati. But Logan Wilson got
• 1:04
  Speaker 5: a little bit better before he even got here, because
• 1:07
  Speaker 5: the Cowboys just picked up Quinn Williams, one of the
• 1:10
  Speaker 5: best defensive tackles in football, and he has been since
• 1:13
  Speaker 5: he was drafted in the top five.
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: Here was that four or five years ago.
• 1:18
  Speaker 5: He's twenty seven years old, really good football player, and
• 1:23
  Speaker 5: this helps their defense immediately, it should. We'll see how
• 1:28
  Speaker 5: it impacts on the field, and then we'll talk about
• 1:31
  Speaker 5: what the Cowboys gave up. Did they give up too much?
• 1:33
  Speaker 5: You like the compensation, You don't have a feeling. There's
• 1:36
  Speaker 5: gonna be some some mixed feelings about that. But I
• 1:41
  Speaker 5: like it because you know, I've said it all along.
• 1:44
  Speaker 5: If you're going to do it, make sure it's for
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: more than than just this year. Make sure it's a
• 1:49
  Speaker 5: guy that's going to come in and be a part
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: of your team. If you're going to give up a
• 1:52
  Speaker 5: first round pick, it's got to be somebody that that
• 1:55
  Speaker 5: is worthy of that, you know, And and they certainly
• 1:59
  Speaker 5: did that. And by the way, they traded Mazzie Smith
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: in the deal in active. You know, he's been in
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: active since he's been here. I mean, whether it's officially
• 2:10
  Speaker 5: on game day or just in general. So that's not
• 2:14
  Speaker 5: much of a of a move there. But all right,
• 2:17
  Speaker 5: let's talk about it. Eight at eight eight five five
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: two two ninety seven. Travis and San Antonio's first Travis.
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: What's up?
• 2:23
  Speaker 6: Nick, Let's freaking go all right?
• 2:25
  Speaker 5: There's there's there's one. There's one LFG about it. That's
• 2:29
  Speaker 5: kind of that's kind of the The first person that
• 2:32
  Speaker 5: told me was Josh Rodriguez, who was on Talking Cowboys
• 2:36
  Speaker 5: just now, and he's the one that told me, and
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: he uh he, I think he really did have an
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: LFG as well, so I thought he was joking when
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: he said, oh, this really went down.
• 2:46
  Speaker 6: That is the mood in the building and the only thing,
• 2:48
  Speaker 6: the only way you can properly set the mood. I
• 2:51
  Speaker 6: know Chris is listening, and we have done in a
• 2:53
  Speaker 6: long time, Nick, and I don't really care that we're
• 2:55
  Speaker 6: three five and one, but we need Jimmy Johnson. How
• 2:57
  Speaker 6: about them cowboys drop whenever you drop that at some point.
• 3:00
  Speaker 6: That is That is the mood that I'm on right now.
• 3:02
  Speaker 6: Quinn Williams is an absolute stud. He's a dude, and
• 3:06
  Speaker 6: you've got to give everybody regardless I've been critical of
• 3:09
  Speaker 6: him too, but you got to give a shout out
• 3:11
  Speaker 6: to the front office and mister Jones. The best way
• 3:14
  Speaker 6: is someone up yesterday, Nick, and in a writer sense
• 3:17
  Speaker 6: was they understood, they understood the assignment that they are
• 3:21
  Speaker 6: accelerating this rebuild. They understand to me, it shows awareness
• 3:24
  Speaker 6: that they understand where Jack's window is and they're trying
• 3:27
  Speaker 6: to line up guys so we can we can rebuild
• 3:29
  Speaker 6: this defense now that you have an interior piece like that,
• 3:32
  Speaker 6: a lot faster than having to wait on you know,
• 3:34
  Speaker 6: four draft picks to develop. And I am draft guy,
• 3:36
  Speaker 6: but I'm also a team if you can go get
• 3:39
  Speaker 6: a guy. I'm not going to say the word, but
• 3:41
  Speaker 6: that's those picks, is the way I've been saying is
• 3:43
  Speaker 6: so I appreciate that they did that. I know we
• 3:46
  Speaker 6: only have a five percent chance nick to get the playoffs,
• 3:48
  Speaker 6: but I'm at after last the last game, which I'm
• 3:51
  Speaker 6: not going to talk about, I'm excited about the next
• 3:53
  Speaker 6: eight games. I want to see I call this answer season.
• 3:55
  Speaker 6: We got to find out about Carson, we got to
• 3:57
  Speaker 6: find out about Rebel. I want to see what Quinn
• 3:59
  Speaker 6: looked like next to Kenny Clark, how much better he
• 4:02
  Speaker 6: can be. And then the last two things I'm gonna
• 4:04
  Speaker 6: say is Logan did play. I talked to a buddy
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: that is a Bengals fan. He said he did play. Mike,
• 4:10
  Speaker 6: so he has the green dot duties. So you're gonna
• 4:12
  Speaker 6: get an upgrade there. And the best part about this.
• 4:15
  Speaker 6: I know he was excited yesterday, probably not as excited
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: as I am, but osa I guess to go back
• 4:19
  Speaker 6: to maybe more of his role where he can come
• 4:21
  Speaker 6: in on pass rushing downs. He doesn't have to take
• 4:23
  Speaker 6: on the double teams like he's been doing. The other
• 4:26
  Speaker 6: two guys can do that, and you can bring him
• 4:28
  Speaker 6: in fresh on third down and get after the freaking passer.
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: So let's go, all right, well, Travis, Other than that,
• 4:35
  Speaker 5: I've got to pay all right, thanks for the call.
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: Was I was gonna ask about Trav. I mean, if
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: there was one Mazie supporter, it was Travis. He was
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: a Michigan guy. He was he was trying for the
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: years he was trying to well, let's wait and see.
• 4:56
  Speaker 5: Does it never really happened. It's funny though, that's like,
• 5:00
  Speaker 5: you know, you look at the drag you said, f
• 5:03
  Speaker 5: those picks. I mean, no, that that's not you know,
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: I don't know if the Cowboys think of it just
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: like that, but you have to look at where they're picking,
• 5:11
  Speaker 5: where they're they're drafting here in the last couple of years,
• 5:14
  Speaker 5: and and it's a crap shoot late in the first round.
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: It has been Mozzie Smith. Tyler Geiden is right on
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: the edge right now, fifty to fifty. Is he going
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: to be a good player or not? I don't I
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: don't know. I mean, I really don't know. No one
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: really seems to know. Tyler Smith. I think is a
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: good football player, and we know that maybe not having
• 5:31
  Speaker 5: his best season, but but he has you know, he's
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: he's going to be fine. Uh And I think he's
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: gonna be a really really good pick. So you know,
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: it's like I said, it's a crap shoot there and
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: that's probably where some of those picks are going to be.
• 5:43
  Speaker 5: I think, you know what, you're getting a little bit
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: more with with this player here. So all right, let's
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: go Brian in Kansas City.
• 5:49
  Speaker 7: Good morning, sir.
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: How are you doing?
• 5:52
  Speaker 8: Oh man, that.
• 5:53
  Speaker 7: Was exciting yesterday. I'll tell you what.
• 5:57
  Speaker 8: Okay, looking you know, just looking at and other people
• 6:02
  Speaker 8: have said it, just looking at this is what you
• 6:05
  Speaker 8: hope for when you have a first round pick. This
• 6:09
  Speaker 8: is a guy, you know.
• 6:10
  Speaker 7: There's no there's no, there's no two ways about it.
• 6:13
  Speaker 7: I thought all along, if I gave up a one
• 6:17
  Speaker 7: and a two for it, I would have said edge rusher.
• 6:22
  Speaker 7: But you know, this is This is a guy who
• 6:26
  Speaker 7: is of the same quality as the edge rushers that
• 6:29
  Speaker 7: people were hoping for. Yeah, you know, at his position,
• 6:34
  Speaker 7: he is top of the line. He is the top guy.
• 6:38
  Speaker 7: I'm curious now whether it will impact, and this is
• 6:41
  Speaker 7: what I want your opinion on. I'm curious will it impact?
• 6:46
  Speaker 7: Will it have the reverse impact? Meaning we know what
• 6:50
  Speaker 7: Micah brought to Osa? Can the reverse happen? Can this
• 6:56
  Speaker 7: person can? Can Williams be such a disruptive person inside
• 7:01
  Speaker 7: that our past rush gets better because maybe because they're
• 7:05
  Speaker 7: a double team in him or anything like that. I
• 7:08
  Speaker 7: don't watch the Jets unless we're playing them. I don't
• 7:11
  Speaker 7: watch the Jets, and I don't really know what kind
• 7:14
  Speaker 7: of impact he's had on the players. Obviously we have
• 7:18
  Speaker 7: I think two of his coaches somebody that used to
• 7:21
  Speaker 7: play with him and White Cotton was his coach, right
• 7:24
  Speaker 7: and somebody else that was a player then a coach.
• 7:27
  Speaker 7: I was reading on dot com yesterday, So I'm just curious,
• 7:30
  Speaker 7: what do you think about the kind of the reverse
• 7:33
  Speaker 7: impact of an interior guy making the outside guys better?
• 7:38
  Speaker 7: And enjoy your break man?
• 7:39
  Speaker 5: All right, thanks, Brian. You know I do think that
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: you know Stopping the run is always a key, and
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: you have to do that. You have to stop stop
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: the run. And I think that that's that's kind of
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: where it always kind of begins. It's probably easier. It's
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: it's it's easier to say. I would think that a
• 8:02
  Speaker 5: better defensive tackles, better defensive tackles is going to help
• 8:05
  Speaker 5: your ends more than great defensive ends are going to
• 8:09
  Speaker 5: help your tackles, because you can use great pass rushers
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: against you. You know, we've seen it here. We've seen
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: Micah get up the field. We've seen demarcuswear get up
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: the field and they run you know, you know, underneath it.
• 8:23
  Speaker 5: And so you you can do that. Now, if you
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: can't really run the ball that well, then then that's
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: gonna set up for some third and lungs. And I
• 8:30
  Speaker 5: think that does kind of help your pass rushers more so,
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: I think it does start that way. I think it's
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: more you know, inside out. Now you say that, and
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: but everyone wants pass rushers, you know, everybody wants to
• 8:43
  Speaker 5: get these pass rushers. I still think it's interesting stat
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: when you look at last year, the top five pass
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: rushers in the league, the dudes, you know, Micah and TJ.
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: Watt and Max Crosby and Miles Garrett and Hendrickson. Right,
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: those five guys were considered like the best. You know,
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: none of their teams made the playoffs, and so yeah,
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: I'm not saying that that that's always the case, but
• 9:12
  Speaker 5: I'm just saying it just because you have it and
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: elite passerser doesn't always mean that it's going to be
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: successful as well. And again again, I know where Quentin
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: Williams came from. Came from the Jets. They haven't been
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: that good. Cowboys played them. They ran the Paul all
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: over the Jets. So let's understand kind of what the
• 9:29
  Speaker 5: situation is. But I still think that this is gonna
• 9:32
  Speaker 5: be a great a great setup for him and for
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: this team moving forward. And I'm fine with with the
• 9:37
  Speaker 5: pick and what they gave up because it we'll talk
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: about this more with other callers, I'm sure. Just just
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: the big picture of the Domino's effects, it's not just
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: about right now, because these grades that you see, they're
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: just grading right now. I think you have to factor
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: in the Cowboys were playing a little bit with some
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: house money and say all right, well we got this,
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: we got this, and then you know, so if you
• 9:59
  Speaker 5: look at the big the scope of everything, I think
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: it changes your outlook a little bit. Josh and Chicago's next.
• 10:06
  Speaker 9: Hey, Nick, I like the trade. I'm happy about it.
• 10:09
  Speaker 9: You know they say about opinions, right like got one.
• 10:12
  Speaker 9: So the only thing I'll say about the about what
• 10:16
  Speaker 9: you were just talking about is and I'm not saying
• 10:18
  Speaker 9: that Quinnon Williams is this guy yet, but I rather
• 10:22
  Speaker 9: have an Aaron Donald or Chris Jones type than a
• 10:25
  Speaker 9: war Daddy pass rusher any day. That's just my opinion
• 10:27
  Speaker 9: on that. Regarding the trade, I like it for the future.
• 10:31
  Speaker 9: I like it for right now. I don't know if
• 10:33
  Speaker 9: Chrystal has a drop, but for twenty fifteen, Tony Romo,
• 10:36
  Speaker 9: you know, let's go win the whole lesson thing.
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: And that's all I got today, all right, you know,
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: Josh again, I'm going back to I do a radio
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: hit on one O five to three of the fan
• 10:46
  Speaker 5: Wunderwoodsy's and this morning the two hosts were kind of
• 10:50
  Speaker 5: arguing back and forth a little bit during their show
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: about one of them thinks that they're gonna go make
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: a run this year, another one thinks this moves really
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: more about next year. So then they got my opinion
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: and I and I'm like, you know, not to be
• 11:04
  Speaker 5: the judge here, but but you're both right.
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: You're both right, or we both could be right.
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: If they go make a run, I'm here for it,
• 11:12
  Speaker 5: and then, I mean literally, we're here for it, and
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: I would love to see it.
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: Do I think it's likely? Probably not.
• 11:20
  Speaker 5: I mean, it's an uphill climb, it's gonna be You're
• 11:23
  Speaker 5: gonna have to be perfect here, pretty much perfect, and
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: the schedule is going to be very challenging. But but
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: you're a better football team too, you know, you're you're
• 11:33
  Speaker 5: a better football team and maybe more complete team. So
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: from that standpoint, uh, I think it's possible. But it's
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: also for next year too, So why why can't both
• 11:46
  Speaker 5: both be right? I like the fact that that let's
• 11:50
  Speaker 5: say they didn't do that, then you're gonna go into
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: the off season. But like, they got to do something here.
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: They got to go free agency. They they got to
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: you know, and if they would have got you know,
• 11:58
  Speaker 5: Quentin Williams, then you been like, oh excited, you know, great,
• 12:02
  Speaker 5: whatever they gave up, it would be about the same. Well,
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: now got him for half the season, he's here he's
• 12:08
  Speaker 5: been you know, acclimated a little bit more understands not
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: gonna be a new player. I think that that it's
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: it's kind of I've said this for a couple of weeks. Now,
• 12:18
  Speaker 5: jump start free agency. I musa say one more thing
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: about free agency too. The Cowboys traded their twenty twenty
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: seven first round pick, okay, and it's going to be
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: the better of the pick is the ones going.
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: To the Jets.
• 12:32
  Speaker 5: So it's gonna be the Cowboys pick. If they're not
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: very good. Cowboys pick goes if the Cowboys are picking
• 12:38
  Speaker 5: tenth and Green Bays picking twenty fifth, tenth pick goes
• 12:41
  Speaker 5: to the Jets. That being said, now they've given up
• 12:45
  Speaker 5: first round picks before, but they haven't given them up
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: before the draft going into the season. The Cowboys no
• 12:53
  Speaker 5: going into next year, going into the twenty twenty sixth season,
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: that if they're not very good, they're not gonna get
• 12:59
  Speaker 5: get a pick. That that's not anything we've ever seen before.
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: They've traded Amari in the middle of the year. They've
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: traded to get Amari in the middle year. They've traded
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: to get Roy Williams in the middle of the year,
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: and then lose the pick next year. They haven't gone
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: into the season knowing that if we're not very good,
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: we're not gonna have a pick. That might be exactly
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: what this team needs to say. We're gonna go a
• 13:23
  Speaker 5: little bit more in free agency. We're gonna be a
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: little bit more aggressive here. We're gonna push the chips
• 13:28
  Speaker 5: in a little bit more. I don't want to say
• 13:30
  Speaker 5: that those two words that that got Jerry in trouble
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: and all that, but I'm just saying this is gonna
• 13:36
  Speaker 5: be a little bit more than what we've seen before.
• 13:38
  Speaker 5: Because you don't have a pick. The fallback on if
• 13:40
  Speaker 5: you're not very good, you got a quarterback, you you've
• 13:43
  Speaker 5: got a wide receiver that you paid maybe a second
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: wide receiver. You've got some young players that you build
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: around here. I think the fact that you you you're
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: not gonna have a high pick, so to say in
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: twenty twenty seven, that might mean you're gonna be lit
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: little bit more aggressive next year's well, we're getting ahead
• 14:02
  Speaker 5: of ourselves. But it's by week so we can do that,
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: all right. I'm a in Napa, California's next.
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: I'm a what's up?
• 14:08
  Speaker 10: Hey, what's up? Nick? How you doing. Man, I'm great.
• 14:13
  Speaker 11: I'm great.
• 14:13
  Speaker 10: I'm always great, but I'm feeling a lot better. Big
• 14:15
  Speaker 10: smile on my face this morning. Man, I just I
• 14:18
  Speaker 10: can't can't help but feeling good. I see things exactly
• 14:22
  Speaker 10: the way you see, Like, you know, this is as
• 14:24
  Speaker 10: much as it's for this year, it's for next year
• 14:26
  Speaker 10: as well and the next few years. Like I think that,
• 14:30
  Speaker 10: I think that there's a window that Jerry's building. The
• 14:33
  Speaker 10: team is building, shot, he's building. It's like coming together.
• 14:36
  Speaker 10: It's like, you know, I feel like there's like a
• 14:39
  Speaker 10: real plan with this trade, Like you know again, instead
• 14:42
  Speaker 10: of like going into you know, the the ugly stretch
• 14:47
  Speaker 10: of playing Philly and Casey and you know, all of
• 14:51
  Speaker 10: the top quarterbacks or some of the top quarterbacks in
• 14:54
  Speaker 10: the League's like, man, now there's like reason and purpose
• 14:56
  Speaker 10: and it's like, yeah, let's go right. I don't want
• 14:59
  Speaker 10: to see what happens, what that looks like versus like, oh, man,
• 15:02
  Speaker 10: I don't know. I hope we don't get embarrassed. But yeah,
• 15:06
  Speaker 10: there's a lot to look forward to this year, next year,
• 15:10
  Speaker 10: the next couple of years. And man, feel good, all right,
• 15:15
  Speaker 10: just like you said, you know, we building for you
• 15:17
  Speaker 10: know again, it's like we might not get a twenty
• 15:21
  Speaker 10: twenty twenty twenty six pick, I mean twenty seven pick,
• 15:25
  Speaker 10: and that's okay because we're going to be picking thirty
• 15:28
  Speaker 10: one thirty two, you know, so feeling great?
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: All right, all right, I love it. I love it.
• 15:34
  Speaker 5: I Mean, that's that's kind of the sentiment that I'm
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: that I'm seeing here for and hearing from from these fans.
• 15:43
  Speaker 12: You know, they just.
• 15:44
  Speaker 5: Want them to do something, you know, because when you're
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: a fan, you're fan to call this show and and
• 15:50
  Speaker 5: you know, be a die hard fan, you want this
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: is anything in life. You want people to care as
• 15:57
  Speaker 5: much as you do. And I guarantee there's fans that
• 16:00
  Speaker 5: are like, why do I care so much? They're not
• 16:03
  Speaker 5: even trying to get better or whatever. And that's maybe
• 16:06
  Speaker 5: what the Jets fans are are thinking right now. But
• 16:10
  Speaker 5: but the you know, the Jets are obviously trying to
• 16:13
  Speaker 5: build and and and build draft picks, draft capital, and
• 16:17
  Speaker 5: they've got a lot of it and all that, and
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: they're willing to sort of sacrifice this year to.
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: Do it, and you know, and and the.
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: Cowboys it's kind of in the middle here because they
• 16:28
  Speaker 5: these this Micah Parsons trade is still going.
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: You know that.
• 16:33
  Speaker 5: It's not just an ISO. I mean, it's it's how
• 16:36
  Speaker 5: you look at it.
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: Is MIKEH.
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: Parsons, Mozzi Smith and a second round pick for a
• 16:43
  Speaker 5: first round pick Quinn Williams and Kenny Clark. And you
• 16:48
  Speaker 5: have to remember the financial part of it, of them
• 16:52
  Speaker 5: able to go and sign some of these these players
• 16:54
  Speaker 5: like they did. They they've signed what Jake Ferguson, Hunter
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: lipke Theron Bland, there's Smith.
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: They've signed all of those guys.
• 17:02
  Speaker 5: Right after the mic thing, and I don't think they
• 17:05
  Speaker 5: would have been able to do all of that just
• 17:07
  Speaker 5: the same.
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: So you know, here's another part.
• 17:11
  Speaker 5: It's a second Like as it stands right now, you
• 17:13
  Speaker 5: don't have a pick on a Friday next year, you
• 17:16
  Speaker 5: have first, if too first, but you don't have a
• 17:18
  Speaker 5: second and a third, so you have nothing on Friday.
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: You know that's not gonna happen. You know that's not
• 17:23
  Speaker 5: gonna stay that way. I would imagine one of these
• 17:25
  Speaker 5: two first round picks they have next year will probably
• 17:28
  Speaker 5: be moved backwards, either into the second or third round,
• 17:31
  Speaker 5: or both, or or one way or another. They're gonna
• 17:34
  Speaker 5: they're gonna get some picks on Friday on second and
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: third round. So my point is is that nothing's finalized yet.
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: Everything's still kind of moving and fluid.
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: All right. Chris Saratoia, Springs, New York.
• 17:48
  Speaker 11: I feel like it's it's Christmas morning. Nick. I can't be.
• 17:52
  Speaker 11: I can't be happier than waking up this morning.
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: We're in Washington, d C.
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: Because sorry, that's what Christmas morning is gonna be for me,
• 18:00
  Speaker 5: and I can't wait. It's gonna be so fun. I
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: can't wait to FaceTime the family from DC.
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: I'm kidding.
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: Sorry, I love go ahead, No, go ahead, Chris, No,
• 18:11
  Speaker 5: I get it. I know it's exciting. I'm glad that
• 18:13
  Speaker 5: you feel that way. I'm glad you feel a way
• 18:15
  Speaker 5: about this trade. I'm glad as this three five and
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: one football team that's frustrated everyone and including yourself this year,
• 18:22
  Speaker 5: then I'm glad that you're able to feel that way.
• 18:25
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 18:25
  Speaker 11: I love the trade. I love getting the linebacker I
• 18:28
  Speaker 11: called yesterdays and I won the linebacker. I so I
• 18:30
  Speaker 11: won the guy from New York, the tackle we got
• 18:32
  Speaker 11: to tackle. I would prefer if we would have did
• 18:34
  Speaker 11: two number twos instead of a one in a second,
• 18:37
  Speaker 11: But like you just said, I can pretty much guarantee
• 18:40
  Speaker 11: next year we might somebody wants to get in that
• 18:42
  Speaker 11: first round again. We traded one of those, get another
• 18:44
  Speaker 11: one and a second get in that second day. Next year,
• 18:47
  Speaker 11: we would be great. I love moving on from Mazie.
• 18:50
  Speaker 11: I wasn't a big fan of his. I never liked
• 18:52
  Speaker 11: his original comment when when he interviewed him when he
• 18:54
  Speaker 11: got drafted, saying he doesn't even like football. I just
• 18:56
  Speaker 11: like to hit people.
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: That's terrible. That's a quitting Yeah, go ahead, go ahead,
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: keep going.
• 19:01
  Speaker 11: Quinton Williams is class. Not only is the unbelievble football player,
• 19:06
  Speaker 11: he's an unbelievable person. He's great for the locker room.
• 19:10
  Speaker 11: He's another Schottenheimer type of guy that brings into this
• 19:14
  Speaker 11: locker room. And it's not just for today or this year.
• 19:17
  Speaker 11: Like you like the all the caller has been saying,
• 19:19
  Speaker 11: it's moving forward in the next two even three years
• 19:22
  Speaker 11: because you can franchise him, you know, after that second year.
• 19:26
  Speaker 11: I love the move. I'm glad Jerry made it. Swagoo's happy,
• 19:30
  Speaker 11: Newton's happy, We're all I think we're all happy, and
• 19:34
  Speaker 11: I'm glad that Jerry finally made some kind of move.
• 19:36
  Speaker 11: It kind of reminded me, got me excited, like we
• 19:38
  Speaker 11: got a Maari Cooper in that mid season a couple
• 19:40
  Speaker 11: of years ago. That's how excited I feel right now.
• 19:43
  Speaker 11: That's all I got for today.
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: All right, Chris.
• 19:45
  Speaker 13: Thanks.
• 19:45
  Speaker 5: You know when you you said, you alluded to that
• 19:48
  Speaker 5: defensive tackle in New York, and I guess in my mind,
• 19:51
  Speaker 5: I'm sorry, when I think of New York football, I
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: don't think of the Jets. I'm sorry, I don't. I
• 19:55
  Speaker 5: think of the Giants, And so I was. I was
• 19:57
  Speaker 5: kinda I just was like, I'll let it go because
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: when I going to sit there and ask about players.
• 20:01
  Speaker 5: But I honestly didn't even register that that must have
• 20:06
  Speaker 5: been who you were referring to. Going back to Masie,
• 20:10
  Speaker 5: you know, I mean, he was here, and it was
• 20:12
  Speaker 5: hard to really say that, but I absolutely that was
• 20:17
  Speaker 5: nails on a chalkboard when he said I don't like football.
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: I just like to hit people.
• 20:22
  Speaker 5: And I've said it then and I said it, I'll
• 20:25
  Speaker 5: say it now. That was a terrible comment. And that
• 20:29
  Speaker 5: was a terrible pick if that. I mean, it just
• 20:33
  Speaker 5: was let's just call it what it was. It was
• 20:34
  Speaker 5: a terrible pick. Because you ended up getting a guy
• 20:36
  Speaker 5: that said that because you don't hit people on Mondays
• 20:42
  Speaker 5: and Tuesdays, barely hit anyone Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. And
• 20:46
  Speaker 5: that's how you become a good football player is to
• 20:49
  Speaker 5: do all the little things. If you don't like football,
• 20:52
  Speaker 5: then you're not doing those little things to get better.
• 20:54
  Speaker 5: You just hit people on Sunday. But guess what when
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: you don't take care of business on Monday, Tuesday, would Thursday, Friday,
• 21:00
  Speaker 5: you don't get to play on Sunday. You're inactive. You're
• 21:03
  Speaker 5: a healthy scratch, so you're not hitting anyone. So that's
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: that was an absolute terrible comment. I mean, cool, thanks
• 21:12
  Speaker 5: for being honest. But as it turns out, I mean
• 21:14
  Speaker 5: that the Cowboys have to they have to own that one.
• 21:17
  Speaker 5: I mean, they do all the research, all the study,
• 21:20
  Speaker 5: and to come to find out that they drafted a
• 21:22
  Speaker 5: player that didn't and and he didn't he says he
• 21:26
  Speaker 5: didn't like football, and it showed, it showed. And so anyways,
• 21:30
  Speaker 5: that's the Jets problem. Another thing about Quentinn and Williams too.
• 21:33
  Speaker 5: Look at what's going on there with the Jets. I mean,
• 21:35
  Speaker 5: look look at that situation that they have it's a
• 21:39
  Speaker 5: miserable type of type of setting. And as great as
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: Quinn Williams might be as a person and all that,
• 21:44
  Speaker 5: because I've seen all the stats and how he's not
• 21:47
  Speaker 5: having a good year and all that, who is like who?
• 21:50
  Speaker 5: I mean that whole situation. It seems like a dumpster fire.
• 21:53
  Speaker 5: And I don't like to get into other people's issues,
• 21:55
  Speaker 5: but I mean this football team, the Cowboys are not
• 22:00
  Speaker 5: you know, they're not that good of a team. And
• 22:02
  Speaker 5: they go in there and play like they did against
• 22:04
  Speaker 5: the Jets. You know that the Jets have major issues.
• 22:07
  Speaker 5: My point is is the guys that you brought in,
• 22:11
  Speaker 5: Quentin Williams, Logan Wilson, they're coming from bad teams, bad defenses.
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: They both need fresh starts.
• 22:16
  Speaker 5: I have a feeling that you'll see a little bit
• 22:19
  Speaker 5: more of what we've seen from them in prior years
• 22:23
  Speaker 5: than what we've seen right now. It's easy to say, Wow,
• 22:25
  Speaker 5: the PFF grade this year and all that. Let's just
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: see what happens in this setting with this new coach
• 22:31
  Speaker 5: and staff, this fresh start, all that kind of stuff.
• 22:33

  Speaker 4: Chuck D in Bridge City, Texas is up, Chuck, Nick,
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: how are you doing good?
• 24:51
  Speaker 13: It's been a watt called lot's happened, But I'm gonna
• 24:54
  Speaker 13: talk about the trade here.
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: Okay, which what do you think?
• 25:00
  Speaker 16: Big name? Uh?
• 25:01
  Speaker 13: I guess it's compatible with Jalen Carter. I know how
• 25:03
  Speaker 13: Jalen Carter is. You got to plan for him, you know,
• 25:07
  Speaker 13: It's all we talked about that week one for this year.
• 25:12
  Speaker 13: I don't think, you know, it's not going to save
• 25:14
  Speaker 13: the season or anything, but I like it going forward
• 25:17
  Speaker 13: and gives you some hope on that defense. Yeah, and uh,
• 25:21
  Speaker 13: another thing I want to point out is I feel
• 25:23
  Speaker 13: like the offense played better when we had all those
• 25:25
  Speaker 13: backups in and while we're struggling now, it just doesn't
• 25:28
  Speaker 13: make sense. Maybe what something you're seeing and what you
• 25:31
  Speaker 13: think about that?
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: Are you talking about B B. Hoffmann?
• 25:35
  Speaker 5: Is that is that kind of what you're thinking or
• 25:37
  Speaker 5: just in.
• 25:40
  Speaker 13: Yeah, even Booker even when we had the Booker wasn't
• 25:44
  Speaker 13: in there, and we ran the ball really well that game,
• 25:46
  Speaker 13: and lately we can't run you know, can't run the ball,
• 25:50
  Speaker 13: and it's you could tell it's it's really affecting us.
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: You know, who had the best game of the day
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: last week?
• 25:56
  Speaker 5: I mean, like great wise Booker at the best really
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: his best player on the on the field, both sides
• 26:02
  Speaker 5: of the ball, Tyler Brooker. Wow, I know, I mean
• 26:05
  Speaker 5: couldn't if you if you're gonna go off off grades
• 26:08
  Speaker 5: and things like that. He did play well. Now, he
• 26:10
  Speaker 5: had a penalty, which I don't I didn't love that penalty, but.
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: He had a penalty.
• 26:15
  Speaker 5: But Tyler Brooker actually was graded out as well as
• 26:18
  Speaker 5: any player on either side of the ball. He had
• 26:20
  Speaker 5: a really nice game. So I think Tyler Brooker is
• 26:23
  Speaker 5: going to be great. I mean, I think that's an
• 26:26
  Speaker 5: outstanding pick. He's the guy he needs to keep playing football. Remember,
• 26:30
  Speaker 5: he played like a two series in the preseason. He's
• 26:33
  Speaker 5: still a rookie. But I think he's gonna be fine.
• 26:35
  Speaker 5: I mean, really do think he's gonna be a good player.
• 26:38
  Speaker 5: But but I but the Bbe Hoffmin thing is that's questionable.
• 26:44
  Speaker 5: I think because it's communication might be better for BB
• 26:49
  Speaker 5: but nastiness, just just the tenacity that you need with that.
• 26:55
  Speaker 5: Huffmin kind of brings that too. So and and Huffbin's
• 26:58
  Speaker 5: always done well when when he's there, the offense does well.
• 27:01
  Speaker 5: So I can kind of argue that point if you want.
• 27:05
  Speaker 13: Yeah, I just you could just see the difference in
• 27:08
  Speaker 13: the play. Action ain't working and everything ain't working.
• 27:10
  Speaker 5: Now yeah, yep, all right, man, all right, Nick, have
• 27:16
  Speaker 5: a good from you, are you too? All right, let's
• 27:19
  Speaker 5: keep it going Northport, Florida. We got Dylan captain. What's
• 27:21
  Speaker 5: up man?
• 27:22
  Speaker 17: Hey, what's up Commander Nick?
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: You good?
• 27:26
  Speaker 11: All good here?
• 27:27
  Speaker 17: Yeah, just that last call real quick. You know, it's
• 27:29
  Speaker 17: not like the Cowboys really struggle offensive last week. They
• 27:31
  Speaker 17: have four turnovers essentially in scoring territory. They left like
• 27:34
  Speaker 17: twelve the sixteen points on the field, So I don't
• 27:37
  Speaker 17: think it was necessarily like the offensive line struggled. As
• 27:39
  Speaker 17: far as running the ball goes, they were having like
• 27:41
  Speaker 17: ten yards of carrying that first drive. We just got
• 27:44
  Speaker 17: away from it. Basically time to match and play together
• 27:46
  Speaker 17: after everybody being hurt and all that. So no no
• 27:49
  Speaker 17: worries for me on that part. The quintn and Williams trade.
• 27:53
  Speaker 17: You know, they're getting blasted for it nationally. I think
• 27:55
  Speaker 17: it's silly because they're just looking at the picks and
• 27:58
  Speaker 17: they're not looking at the individual situation Here in Dallaster.
• 28:00
  Speaker 17: Dallas is working on the limited timeframe. I call it
• 28:03
  Speaker 17: Operation Max Dak. You got basically three years left with Dak.
• 28:06
  Speaker 17: I'm working under the assumption that he's he's not going
• 28:08
  Speaker 17: to be here because a he's going to be super expensive,
• 28:10
  Speaker 17: his money's gonna have a hit and at some point
• 28:12
  Speaker 17: here it's looking like that's going to be the case.
• 28:15
  Speaker 17: But if we don't know what his hell's going to be,
• 28:16
  Speaker 17: his play at that point. So I'm working under that timeframe.
• 28:20
  Speaker 17: This move jump starts the defensive rebuild. You still have
• 28:23
  Speaker 17: plenty of draft capital to reinforce your foundation through the draft,
• 28:27
  Speaker 17: and I have a feeling they're going to trade out of
• 28:29
  Speaker 17: the first round at the end of the first this year,
• 28:31
  Speaker 17: pick up some more picks, you move back ten picks,
• 28:33
  Speaker 17: and you pick up a second and two third at
• 28:34
  Speaker 17: the Giants did with the with the Falcons this last draft.
• 28:37
  Speaker 17: So there's plenty of movement there to be made. But
• 28:39
  Speaker 17: most importantly, man with they're forgetting nationally this trade between
• 28:43
  Speaker 17: the holistically, the Micah Parsons moving away and then getting.
• 28:46
  Speaker 10: All these guys.
• 28:47
  Speaker 11: They still have all the.
• 28:49
  Speaker 17: Financial flexibility like pay a guy like Pickens, like I
• 28:51
  Speaker 17: don't know if they kept Micah, if they could have
• 28:53
  Speaker 17: done that. So you've got picked, You've got the financial freedom.
• 28:56
  Speaker 17: Kenny Clark's contract is not guaranteed next year, so they
• 28:59
  Speaker 17: can now that to rework it, or they can you know,
• 29:00
  Speaker 17: let him go. I don't want him to go, but
• 29:02
  Speaker 17: that's an option because right now it's sixty million tied
• 29:04
  Speaker 17: up in that defensive tackle room. I think next season,
• 29:06
  Speaker 17: which the guy do something there. But there's so many
• 29:09
  Speaker 17: angles where this thing works in a positive way, and
• 29:13
  Speaker 17: just the national media just being silly about us. So
• 29:15
  Speaker 17: that's all I wanted to say. Man, it's wanting to
• 29:16
  Speaker 17: get your thoughts on that.
• 29:17
  Speaker 5: All right, Dylan, I appreciate that. I'm going to say this.
• 29:19
  Speaker 5: I've said it before, I'll say it again. You don't
• 29:21
  Speaker 5: cover the NFL. Nobody, nobody can cover the NFL. No
• 29:26
  Speaker 5: so national writers, national reporters, you don't cover the league
• 29:32
  Speaker 5: cause I cover this football team right here, and there's
• 29:36
  Speaker 5: a lot of stuff that happens here that you still
• 29:39
  Speaker 5: don't know.
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: You don't know all the ins and outs.
• 29:41
  Speaker 5: There's no possible way you can cover the NFL with
• 29:45
  Speaker 5: thirty two teams. It's impossible. So if you want to say, oh,
• 29:49
  Speaker 5: Adam Schefter rapport, yeah, those guys they do a nice start,
• 29:53
  Speaker 5: they get a ton of help, but they don't even
• 29:55
  Speaker 5: know the ins and outs. And I know this firsthand
• 29:58
  Speaker 5: because I know how much Ada Chefter leans on the
• 30:02
  Speaker 5: guys that actually are here in Dallas that's the way
• 30:04
  Speaker 5: it works.
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: You can't.
• 30:06
  Speaker 5: So my point is, be careful when you listening to
• 30:09
  Speaker 5: national reporters because they're going off of this top level
• 30:14
  Speaker 5: of just kind of what they see trade value.
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: You get more here. No, they missed it.
• 30:20
  Speaker 5: They're wrong because that they should have gotten the third
• 30:22
  Speaker 5: instead of the or whatever it is. You like, Dylan,
• 30:26
  Speaker 5: you just pointed out they're not seeing all that stuff.
• 30:29
  Speaker 5: They're not looking at the domino effect or go all right, well,
• 30:32
  Speaker 5: what if they end up signing these guys. They wouldn't
• 30:35
  Speaker 5: have signed those four guys and then maybe pickings as well,
• 30:37
  Speaker 5: they couldn't have done it. But no one looks at that.
• 30:40
  Speaker 5: They just look at this trade. No, twenty seven years
• 30:43
  Speaker 5: old declining player, not a good move. Whatever it is,
• 30:48
  Speaker 5: you got a factor it all in. It's like it's
• 30:50
  Speaker 5: like saying, well, should you go for it this? You know,
• 30:54
  Speaker 5: analytics say go for it here on four and fourth
• 30:57
  Speaker 5: and four, or analytics say kick a field goal. You're
• 30:59
  Speaker 5: supposed kick a field goal here. Well, does analytics know
• 31:02
  Speaker 5: that my kicker just broke his foot and so now
• 31:05
  Speaker 5: now we have to go for two? Or you know
• 31:07
  Speaker 5: what I mean, Like they don't know all of the details.
• 31:10
  Speaker 5: What do you put into the equation there that that
• 31:13
  Speaker 5: Micah Parsons just laid on the table for you. And
• 31:16
  Speaker 5: he basically quit in the middle of a preseason and
• 31:19
  Speaker 5: and he was going through all the motions to try
• 31:22
  Speaker 5: to find doctors that could say that he had a
• 31:24
  Speaker 5: back injury when he really didn't and all this stuff.
• 31:26
  Speaker 5: I mean, that's the kind of guy that you want,
• 31:28
  Speaker 5: So you have to factor it all in. The Cowboys
• 31:31
  Speaker 5: had to make a move based off of that, and
• 31:33
  Speaker 5: and like Dylan just pointed out, I thought, in a
• 31:36
  Speaker 5: good way about what this window looks like and what
• 31:39
  Speaker 5: you have to what you have the Cowboys have to
• 31:42
  Speaker 5: do to operate here in the next few years. So
• 31:45
  Speaker 5: you're wasting time by by worrying about I'm not saying
• 31:49
  Speaker 5: you don't listen to points and all that kind of stuff,
• 31:53
  Speaker 5: but I'm just saying there's an agenda with everyone, and
• 31:56
  Speaker 5: a lot of times the agenda is just to bash
• 31:58
  Speaker 5: the Cowboys and bash Jerry because these guys know that
• 32:01
  Speaker 5: that you can you know people like that, you know,
• 32:04
  Speaker 5: Lassan McCoy found that out, saying with Steven Asmith, this
• 32:09
  Speaker 5: list works, you know what I mean, Cowboy fans will
• 32:11
  Speaker 5: hate you, but I don't care because everyone loves that
• 32:13
  Speaker 5: kind of stuff. Just be careful with that because because
• 32:16
  Speaker 5: there's so many more layers to this, and I'm glad
• 32:19
  Speaker 5: you guys are really informed about looking through some of
• 32:22
  Speaker 5: those those layers. All right, Matt in la is next?
• 32:26
  Speaker 18: Hey, Nick, really appreciate you taking my call and listening
• 32:30
  Speaker 18: for many many years. I just have two things and
• 32:34
  Speaker 18: and then I'll just hang up and listen to say personally,
• 32:38
  Speaker 18: I love the trade. And then the question is is
• 32:42
  Speaker 18: there any chance that we get Osa Clark and Williams
• 32:47
  Speaker 18: on the field that's on the same at least that
• 32:49
  Speaker 18: first down, and then maybe interchange the pieces. And then
• 32:53
  Speaker 18: the second thing. You know, I've really raised my whole family.
• 32:57
  Speaker 18: So we listened to the media that comes from Dallas
• 33:00
  Speaker 18: entertainment purposes is turning on ESPN, so that's just for entertainment.
• 33:04
  Speaker 18: So we really like to get in depth with our
• 33:06
  Speaker 18: Cowboy conversation. And we were talking about I know it's
• 33:09
  Speaker 18: way ahead of time, but our.
• 33:10
  Speaker 12: First round draft pick, like if Cowboys were to draft,
• 33:13
  Speaker 12: we were thinking maybe a cornerback, but if they're going
• 33:17
  Speaker 12: to use Revel and Bland as our outside guys.
• 33:21
  Speaker 18: Would you ever consider using a first round draft pick
• 33:25
  Speaker 18: on somebody that covers the inside? Thanks for taking my call, Nick,
• 33:29
  Speaker 18: I really appreciate everything you do for calbination.
• 33:31
  Speaker 16: Thank you.
• 33:32
  Speaker 4: Thanks Matt.
• 33:34
  Speaker 5: You know, I think when the first round, I think
• 33:37
  Speaker 5: you're you're you're looking at corners that you know, have
• 33:42
  Speaker 5: elite cover skills, and some of these guys can go
• 33:46
  Speaker 5: into the slot. I think though, if he was just
• 33:50
  Speaker 5: kind of a nickel corner, he probably you know, he
• 33:53
  Speaker 5: probably wouldn't be considered first round. But that's not how
• 33:58
  Speaker 5: they would spend it. They say, is this guy can
• 34:01
  Speaker 5: play everywhere and he could play in the slot if
• 34:04
  Speaker 5: we needed him to. That's how good of coverage skills
• 34:06
  Speaker 5: he had. So that's how they they would spit it
• 34:09
  Speaker 5: for you. Okay, you're you're not gonna get you know,
• 34:11
  Speaker 5: he's really just a nickel guy, but nickel's really important
• 34:13
  Speaker 5: all that now. No, No, he's a corner and he
• 34:17
  Speaker 5: can play all over the all over the field, which
• 34:19
  Speaker 5: is good if you need him to travel and things
• 34:21
  Speaker 5: like that, because sometimes these great receivers do line up
• 34:23
  Speaker 5: at the slot. So but you know, well we'll see
• 34:27
  Speaker 5: what what that looks like next year and what they
• 34:29
  Speaker 5: need and and and you know we're asking a lot
• 34:32
  Speaker 5: out of revel. We don't even know what what what
• 34:35
  Speaker 5: he can do. So we'll see how the season plays
• 34:39
  Speaker 5: out and what what their needs could be, you know,
• 34:41
  Speaker 5: I mean we we think it would be defense, but
• 34:44
  Speaker 5: you never know. I mean, could be offensive guy too.
• 34:47
  Speaker 5: I mean, you could be picking in the teams or something,
• 34:50
  Speaker 5: and we're if the best player on the boards in
• 34:52
  Speaker 5: offensive tackle, and you don't know what you've really got
• 34:55
  Speaker 5: at in any other spot. So I mean, let's let's
• 34:59
  Speaker 5: not just assume anything about what they might do next year.
• 35:02
  Speaker 5: Let's go to Rick in Massachusetts.
• 35:06
  Speaker 19: Nick, how you doing. I'm good. I'm good. First of all,
• 35:12
  Speaker 19: I love the trade. Or it's like with Quinton and Wilson,
• 35:16
  Speaker 19: because Quinton's gonna help the run. It's gonna help Osa
• 35:21
  Speaker 19: and Clark and Anna help the pass rushers and the linebackers.
• 35:27
  Speaker 19: So getting all that together, it's gonna is really gonna
• 35:31
  Speaker 19: help there as farwers to see. It's rest the season
• 35:35
  Speaker 19: goes with three and five, But you know, when we
• 35:39
  Speaker 19: had the call, I know, it's a different, but we
• 35:42
  Speaker 19: still have chances. Even though it may swim, but we
• 35:44
  Speaker 19: still have chances. And I'm one of those people that
• 35:47
  Speaker 19: season not over in twelve here someone say we're eliminated.
• 35:51
  Speaker 5: So from that, all right, Rick, you know what, don't
• 35:56
  Speaker 5: don't disagree with that at all. And that's the that's
• 36:00
  Speaker 5: the thing about it is is that this isn't you know,
• 36:04
  Speaker 5: this isn't a rental and and and I could see
• 36:07
  Speaker 5: if you would be like man that they're putting all
• 36:09
  Speaker 5: their eggs here on in this basket and if it
• 36:11
  Speaker 5: doesn't work out, then you know, then what this is,
• 36:14
  Speaker 5: this is a move that that is good for next year.
• 36:18
  Speaker 5: But this year, we'll see what happens. I mean, I mean,
• 36:23
  Speaker 5: you got to play these games, you know, go out,
• 36:26
  Speaker 5: go out and play. I mean you look at the
• 36:27
  Speaker 5: schedule and you're like, you shouldn't be afraid of anybody,
• 36:30
  Speaker 5: and that they won't be you know. I mean, I
• 36:33
  Speaker 5: get it that the defense has been bad, but they
• 36:36
  Speaker 5: they're trying to fix it. And and you know, they
• 36:40
  Speaker 5: hope that that if you want to throw a.
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: Revel in there, you can.
• 36:44
  Speaker 5: But I think they're they're hoping that you've got four
• 36:46
  Speaker 5: to five guys that could come come back in the
• 36:49
  Speaker 5: second half of the season and help you on defense.
• 36:52
  Speaker 5: Quinn Williams being the first one, Logan Wilson, the second
• 36:56
  Speaker 5: one over shown, maybe the third one, Revel maybe I
• 37:02
  Speaker 5: mean as the fourth one. If he can get out
• 37:04
  Speaker 5: there and play. And then I don't even know about
• 37:07
  Speaker 5: Trayvon Diggs. I mean that would if he comes back
• 37:11
  Speaker 5: and he can, I mean he can, He's eligible to
• 37:12
  Speaker 5: come back for the Chiefs game. So maybe, you know,
• 37:16
  Speaker 5: maybe maybe if they can you know, win and he can,
• 37:20
  Speaker 5: he can come back and he can help you down
• 37:22
  Speaker 5: the stretch too. So and again that right there, just
• 37:25
  Speaker 5: on defense, that that can get you a couple stops
• 37:29
  Speaker 5: a game. That's all I'm asking for. Get a couple
• 37:31
  Speaker 5: stops a game, and get a turnover, get a couple
• 37:33
  Speaker 5: more sacks maybe, and just keep putting your offense in
• 37:37
  Speaker 5: better situations. So maybe they don't have to start at
• 37:39
  Speaker 5: the thirty five yard line every time. Maybe they can
• 37:41
  Speaker 5: start at midfield. Maybe they could start you know, in
• 37:43
  Speaker 5: plus territory. Things like that. Let's go to break one
• 37:46
  Speaker 5: more time. We'll be right back on Cowboys storyline.

• 39:22
  Speaker 10: Nick?
• 39:23
  Speaker 13: Good?
• 39:23
  Speaker 18: You good? Brother?
• 39:25
  Speaker 7: Hey.
• 39:25
  Speaker 22: So there's always going to be like an angle that
• 39:28
  Speaker 22: might look better, right, like, oh, the Cowboys should have
• 39:31
  Speaker 22: done this, or they waited too long, or they could
• 39:33
  Speaker 22: have gotten this, or if they didn't sign for this,
• 39:35
  Speaker 22: you know, but like at the end of the day,
• 39:38
  Speaker 22: like I really feel like, you know, the front office
• 39:40
  Speaker 22: and I'll say it, a lot of people get criticized
• 39:43
  Speaker 22: for giving Jerry in the front office credit, but I
• 39:45
  Speaker 22: think they've done a phenomenal job, man. I mean, if
• 39:48
  Speaker 22: you think about even since the off season, I mean,
• 39:49
  Speaker 22: they brought in pickings, you know, they got Williams, you know,
• 39:52
  Speaker 22: making the trade, the micro trade. A lot of people
• 39:54
  Speaker 22: were you know, half and half on it. But it's
• 39:56
  Speaker 22: it's it's looking like it's a pretty good jobs.
• 39:58
  Speaker 10: I mean.
• 39:58
  Speaker 22: And at the end of the day, you know, you know,
• 40:01
  Speaker 22: the Dallas Cowboys and the NFL in general are my
• 40:05
  Speaker 22: entertainment man. They're all I have a lot of people
• 40:07
  Speaker 22: talk about, you know, basketball or they like hockey or golf,
• 40:10
  Speaker 22: and I don't have any of that.
• 40:11
  Speaker 14: Man.
• 40:12
  Speaker 22: All I am is a Dallas Cowboys fan, and at
• 40:14
  Speaker 22: the end of the day, I want I watched them
• 40:16
  Speaker 22: for my entertainment, you know what I mean. So I'm
• 40:18
  Speaker 22: happy that they're making improvements that won't only benefit my
• 40:20
  Speaker 22: viewing pleasure this season, but also seasons to come, you
• 40:23
  Speaker 22: know what I mean. And so I'm excited to see
• 40:25
  Speaker 22: what what these two trades can bring with Williams and
• 40:28
  Speaker 22: and logan logan right, Jess and my logan Wilson. Yeah,
• 40:32
  Speaker 22: and and uh overshown coming back, you know what I mean.
• 40:35
  Speaker 22: And this is kind of going back to something that
• 40:37
  Speaker 22: Dylan has said before because I know he likes to
• 40:39
  Speaker 22: call in and talk about bones and stuff. But yeah,
• 40:43
  Speaker 22: so Quin Williams can be like one of those bones
• 40:46
  Speaker 22: that like Dallas is building around, you know what I mean.
• 40:48
  Speaker 7: And and my.
• 40:49
  Speaker 22: Last point, I don't know whether you ever saw this, Nick,
• 40:51
  Speaker 22: but I said it in the YouTube chat and people understood.
• 40:53
  Speaker 22: So Quin Williams is the only guy who I've ever
• 40:56
  Speaker 22: seen sneeze, bless himself and think himself. So if that's
• 41:00
  Speaker 22: not versatility. I don't know what is. Man, we got
• 41:02
  Speaker 22: ourselves a stunt.
• 41:03
  Speaker 4: Appreciate all right, all right, yeah, thanks for the call
• 41:09
  Speaker 4: this guy.
• 41:10
  Speaker 5: You know, I I think that he's one of those
• 41:13
  Speaker 5: players that we've been asking about. You know, is you
• 41:16
  Speaker 5: have to kind of identify and I do think in
• 41:19
  Speaker 5: the quarterback will will identify him. The offensive line certainly
• 41:22
  Speaker 5: will and the Cowboys really haven't had a player like
• 41:25
  Speaker 5: that since Mike ha left.
• 41:26
  Speaker 4: So, uh that's that's certainly a good thing.
• 41:29
  Speaker 5: You want to have players like that, and and you know,
• 41:33
  Speaker 5: guys that can make others others better. And your defensive tackle,
• 41:38
  Speaker 5: you know, you've got playmakers now, a defensive tackle, I
• 41:41
  Speaker 5: mean you've got I mean, if you're just gonna go
• 41:44
  Speaker 5: one on one across the board, one of them is
• 41:47
  Speaker 5: gonna get get through. So I think that that's what
• 41:50
  Speaker 5: they've done. Then they're kind of building from the inside out.
• 41:53
  Speaker 5: And uh, I certainly certainly like it. A point about
• 41:56
  Speaker 5: Quentin Williams. I just wanted to let you guys know
• 41:59
  Speaker 5: programming No, probably in about an hour maybe a little
• 42:02
  Speaker 5: bit more today around twelve eleven to twelve Central time,
• 42:07
  Speaker 5: there should be a press conference with Quentyn Williams, So
• 42:11
  Speaker 5: be ready for that. I'm sure we'll carry that live
• 42:13
  Speaker 5: on Dallas Cowboys dot Com. Let's go to Zach in Atlanta.
• 42:17
  Speaker 16: Hey, what's up nicking Frisco?
• 42:18
  Speaker 18: Is that?
• 42:18
  Speaker 20: Man?
• 42:20
  Speaker 16: Hey, I don't know what they're talking about on Talking
• 42:23
  Speaker 16: Jets or Jets Storyline Jets Break, but I know Cowboy
• 42:29
  Speaker 16: Storyline all the podcasts we're doing today. Our team got
• 42:33
  Speaker 16: significantly better. Quinn Williams is the best team, best player
• 42:35
  Speaker 16: on our defense and also one of the best players
• 42:38
  Speaker 16: on our team already. That's huge.
• 42:41
  Speaker 11: That's huge.
• 42:42
  Speaker 16: And losing Micah we needed needed to make good on
• 42:46
  Speaker 16: the resources that we had, and man, we atoned for
• 42:50
  Speaker 16: the sins of drafting Mazzi by effectively trading Mazzi as
• 42:56
  Speaker 16: well and acknowledging that. So, man, I'm excited for the
• 43:04
  Speaker 16: rest of this season now, at least just to see
• 43:06
  Speaker 16: what happens. And yeah, great, great player, Quinn Williams. So
• 43:13
  Speaker 16: excited that he belongs to us now. And going back
• 43:16
  Speaker 16: to my call from the other from last week about
• 43:18
  Speaker 16: the Cardinals game, obviously not a great game, but I
• 43:21
  Speaker 16: said the zombie pass rush would wake up. We got
• 43:24
  Speaker 16: home and it wasn't crushed Teddy Grams. It was shredded brisset,
• 43:29
  Speaker 16: shredded brisket, and we got a special team's touchdown. The
• 43:34
  Speaker 16: blocked punt I thought would be a punt returned touchdown,
• 43:38
  Speaker 16: but I was throwing a lot of darts. Would have
• 43:40
  Speaker 16: liked to win. But man, here we go, bye week
• 43:44
  Speaker 16: and then the rest of the season. Talk to you'll soon.
• 43:46

  Speaker 18: Man?
• 44:02
  Speaker 7: As Jerry, I borrow that Deloreans you know.
• 44:10
  Speaker 23: So I don't know. I don't know if it was
• 44:13
  Speaker 23: old Jerry going back to the nineties or young Jerry
• 44:17
  Speaker 23: coming up to the right now saying, hey, what's going on?
• 44:20
  Speaker 23: But whatever it is, man, hey, he did a great job.
• 44:24
  Speaker 7: Old Jerry.
• 44:25
  Speaker 23: Jerry Jones in the nineties is back.
• 44:27
  Speaker 8: I love it.
• 44:28
  Speaker 23: We got draft picks, we got flexibility, and we now
• 44:33
  Speaker 23: we got a good offensive and defensive line. How got
• 44:37
  Speaker 23: do cowboys go? Cowboys?
• 44:39
  Speaker 19: All right?
• 44:41
  Speaker 5: All right, thanks, Lester. You know, I think every I
• 44:45
  Speaker 5: think the consensus here is the same. I mean everybody's
• 44:48
  Speaker 5: pretty excited about the move, you know, and that's that's
• 44:50
  Speaker 5: what's going to be the case on this show. I mean,
• 44:53
  Speaker 5: he's diehard Cowboy fans and been fighting through it. Wanted
• 44:56
  Speaker 5: to see something better, want to see some change. I
• 44:58
  Speaker 5: want to see the Cowboys douce something that can help
• 45:01
  Speaker 5: them right now, because this is where we are.
• 45:04
  Speaker 4: We are right now.
• 45:04
  Speaker 5: They're gonna watch this game against the Raiders in a
• 45:06
  Speaker 5: couple of weeks, and then and then all these other game.
• 45:09
  Speaker 5: I mean, it doesn't matter what the record is. You
• 45:10
  Speaker 5: guys are gonna be watching and you wanted them to
• 45:12
  Speaker 5: have a chance to win. And so I don't I
• 45:14
  Speaker 5: don't blame that now. Down the road, it still helps
• 45:18
  Speaker 5: them down the road, like in two or three years,
• 45:21
  Speaker 5: I mean we'll see. I mean, you know, you can't
• 45:25
  Speaker 5: grade any trades. Who won the Steelers Pickens trade. Well,
• 45:30
  Speaker 5: it looks like the Cowboys have gotten someone better than
• 45:33
  Speaker 5: a third round pick, But in two or three years
• 45:36
  Speaker 5: you might look back and go, oh, look who Green
• 45:38
  Speaker 5: Bay draft. I mean, sorry, Pittsburgh drafted in the third
• 45:41
  Speaker 5: round with that pick that the Cowboys sent for Pickens,
• 45:43
  Speaker 5: and the Cowboys maybe only had them for a year
• 45:46
  Speaker 5: and then they got a Jason Witten type in the
• 45:48
  Speaker 5: third round.
• 45:49
  Speaker 4: You never know, I mean you never know.
• 45:51
  Speaker 5: That's why grading drafts and grading trades and all this stuff,
• 45:56
  Speaker 5: it's gonna take a little bit because we're still there's
• 45:59
  Speaker 5: a lot of peace. Is to the to the Micah thing,
• 46:01
  Speaker 5: you know, I mean, the Cowboys got a guy and
• 46:03
  Speaker 5: with the what twelfth pick in the draft, you know,
• 46:07
  Speaker 5: and and and turned it. I mean it was Micah
• 46:09
  Speaker 5: Parsons and turned it into all of this. So it'll
• 46:15
  Speaker 5: be it'll be a few years before we really unravel
• 46:17
  Speaker 5: at all to see you know who did what. But
• 46:19
  Speaker 5: I know this, Quinner Williams helps your football team right now,
• 46:23
  Speaker 5: Logan Wilson helps your team. I mean right now, you
• 46:27
  Speaker 5: got the best linebacker on your team and you got
• 46:29
  Speaker 5: the best defensive tackle on your team right off the bat,
• 46:33
  Speaker 5: to two positions that you needed. They probably were trying
• 46:36
  Speaker 5: to get more trades and it didn't didn't work out.
• 46:38
  Speaker 5: But as it stands right now, your team got got better.
• 46:41
  Speaker 5: And then we'll see what it means for this year.
• 46:43
  Speaker 5: We'll see what it means down the road. This will
• 46:45
