- 0:09Speaker 2: Cowboys.
- 0:12Speaker 1: This is Cowboys Storyline presented by Gillette, the official shave
- 0:17Speaker 1: of the Dallas Cowboys. Here's Nick Eatman.
- 0:26Speaker 2: Good morning, and welcome to Cowboys Storyline presented by Gellette.
- 0:30Speaker 2: I am Nick Eatman. It is Monday, October the sixth,
- 0:33Speaker 2: and the Cowboys are now two two and one all
- 0:38Speaker 2: year long. I'm going to say a record that I've
- 0:40Speaker 2: never said before. There's another one. There're not many teams,
- 0:43Speaker 2: I guess are exactly five hundred. I believe the Bears
- 0:48Speaker 2: are because they're two and two after four games, but
- 0:51Speaker 2: the Cowboys two two and one and five games, they
- 0:53Speaker 2: are back to five hundred with a impressive win. It
- 0:56Speaker 2: was to me at least thirty seven to twenty two.
- 1:00Speaker 2: I think it's a big win. I mean because it
- 1:02Speaker 2: was I must win, and because and we said this
- 1:05Speaker 2: all the time about you know, the early in the year,
- 1:07Speaker 2: these are the games you have to have. You've got
- 1:09Speaker 2: to go into New York and beat the Jets. Underdogs
- 1:13Speaker 2: are not and I believe by the kickoff the Cowboys
- 1:15Speaker 2: were slight underdogs in the game, but they dominated the game,
- 1:20Speaker 2: and they were not only the better team, but you know,
- 1:24Speaker 2: I think this is important to say they made a
- 1:26Speaker 2: team look worse than they are. We say it all
- 1:28Speaker 2: the time, man, why do we always play to our
- 1:31Speaker 2: level of our competition. Well, they didn't this game. They
- 1:35Speaker 2: exceeded that and they made a bad Jets team look worse.
- 1:40Speaker 2: So and I don't think the Jets are terrible. I
- 1:43Speaker 2: looked at their schedule. I bet they win two games
- 1:46Speaker 2: out of the next you know, two of the next
- 1:48Speaker 2: four games. I bet they'll win here pretty soon, as
- 1:52Speaker 2: long as they stick together. But I thought, you know,
- 1:54Speaker 2: give the Cowboys credit for how they played the game,
- 1:57Speaker 2: with all of the injuries that they have to do
- 2:00Speaker 2: what they did on the offensive line and put up
- 2:02Speaker 2: that many yards and that many points. Again, I mean,
- 2:06Speaker 2: they scored thirty seven points now three three games this
- 2:09Speaker 2: year in regulation, thirty seven right on the dot. A
- 2:12Speaker 2: couple of times they've got the forty in overtime. That's
- 2:15Speaker 2: the third time that they've hit thirty seven. That's pretty impressive.
- 2:18Speaker 2: And they're now right over thirty points a game. So
- 2:21Speaker 2: when you think of all the injuries that you had
- 2:23Speaker 2: on the line, the receivers and everything missing some very
- 2:26Speaker 2: key players. To keep doing that. It is really good,
- 2:28Speaker 2: all right' go to the line Lester and Minnesota's first.
- 2:33Speaker 3: Good morning, Nick.
- 2:34Speaker 2: How you doing?
- 2:36Speaker 3: Hey, I'm doing good man. First of all, I want
- 2:39Speaker 3: to give kudos to the offensive line and the offensive
- 2:44Speaker 3: line coaches. I think they've done a sensational job. I've
- 2:50Speaker 3: never really known someone to come in with four backups
- 2:54Speaker 3: on the line and play that well like that, So
- 2:57Speaker 3: I want to give kudos to the coach just and
- 3:00Speaker 3: the offensive line. Wow, I'm just so happy. Man. We
- 3:06Speaker 3: had five sacks yesterday for the defense and the defensive line.
- 3:10Speaker 3: And you know, I'm an offensive leade and defensive line guy,
- 3:13Speaker 3: so I'm really feeling good. And again, I love the
- 3:20Speaker 3: coaching that Shottenheimon is doing. And I look at little
- 3:23Speaker 3: things like all the time out when it looks like
- 3:27Speaker 3: looked like, you know, they weren't organized or whatever was
- 3:30Speaker 3: going on, but he called the time out in the
- 3:32Speaker 3: first half. I'm an advocate of using your timeout in
- 3:36Speaker 3: the first half if you look like you need them,
- 3:39Speaker 3: and sometimes got no coaches don't do that. They save
- 3:42Speaker 3: them for some reason and you can't use them after
- 3:45Speaker 3: the first half anyway, and I just all right, I'm
- 3:51Speaker 3: just happy, man. I just just want to say one
- 3:55Speaker 3: more thing. The foundation of this seems to be running
- 3:59Speaker 3: the run the ball, play action pass, and throw the
- 4:03Speaker 3: ball back. Go Cowboys.
- 4:05Speaker 2: All right, thank you for the call, Lester. Let's go.
- 4:09Speaker 2: Let's keep this thing going. Let's try to get quicker
- 4:11Speaker 2: in and out of here. So Anthony and Miami, what's.
- 4:13Speaker 4: Up, Nate the quick? What's up my guy?
- 4:17Speaker 2: How you doing?
- 4:18Speaker 4: I'm doing all right, man, took a little break. I
- 4:21Speaker 4: had to check in with the boys. So we're gonna
- 4:22Speaker 4: make it. We're gonna make it quick. You know. I
- 4:24Speaker 4: gotta show love to you first of all, like to say,
- 4:27Speaker 4: to do a flashback. You know, I predicted ten six
- 4:30Speaker 4: to one. So the tie for me, let's get back
- 4:33Speaker 4: on that was excellent. And I think that tie is
- 4:35Speaker 4: gonna help us sneak into the playoffs. So I did
- 4:38Speaker 4: predict that time. Okay, So that's what's gonna happen on
- 4:41Speaker 4: that now for this right now, the number one thing.
- 4:43Speaker 4: Everybody's gotta realize what's happening with the team. Dak's playing
- 4:46Speaker 4: out of his mind, showing true leadership with all the people.
- 4:49Speaker 4: He's missing and we have depth. We keep that up,
- 4:52Speaker 4: keep the depth with the injuries and how good they
- 4:54Speaker 4: are playing. We got a shot, so I'm making fast
- 4:57Speaker 4: man mission.
- 4:59Speaker 2: All right, all right, appreciate it. You're right about that.
- 5:02Speaker 2: Dak is playing really good football right now. And you
- 5:05Speaker 2: take his best receiver away, take his fastest receiver away,
- 5:09Speaker 2: take the best offensive lineman, maybe the best guard in
- 5:14Speaker 2: the league take it away, Take your other strong guard away,
- 5:17Speaker 2: your starting center. I mean, everything is being taken away
- 5:20Speaker 2: and nothing is changing really, so it's and that is
- 5:24Speaker 2: the constant right now. He's playing really really good football.
- 5:28Speaker 2: He's taking what's there. The running game. Got to give
- 5:30Speaker 2: a credit to the running game because they've they've been outstanding.
- 5:33Speaker 2: Javonte Williams. You know, it's it's better than you would
- 5:38Speaker 2: have thought for him, and I have a point on that.
- 5:41Speaker 2: I'm sure we'll talk about running backs later on in
- 5:44Speaker 2: the show. Jeremy and DC is our next caller. Jeremy,
- 5:47Speaker 2: what's up man here?
- 5:48Speaker 5: Yo?
- 5:48Speaker 6: Nick?
- 5:50Speaker 5: Yeah?
- 5:51Speaker 7: Yes, all right man, that's what's up man? Yeah? I
- 5:55Speaker 7: like how they given j dub the ball man. He's
- 5:58Speaker 7: running that thing. He looking like there when I'm saying that,
- 6:01Speaker 7: I'm talking about like the more curries he get, the
- 6:05Speaker 7: better he getting. You know what I'm saying. It isn't
- 6:07Speaker 7: not like he or either they getting tired or something.
- 6:11Speaker 7: And you know GT. Three came through with another assists,
- 6:16Speaker 7: and then old Boy were did Royn Floyd?
- 6:19Speaker 8: No, he come from.
- 6:22Speaker 7: You know what I'm saying. But it was a fur
- 6:24Speaker 7: delicious day. And I like how Evil Flew was mixing
- 6:29Speaker 7: up that defensive line had he was bringing them he
- 6:32Speaker 7: was It looked like he learned how to play with
- 6:35Speaker 7: his new toys now, you know what I'm saying, learning
- 6:37Speaker 7: when to get a man on which downs and stuff
- 6:40Speaker 7: like that. And I like how he moving with them,
- 6:42Speaker 7: you know what I'm saying. And I'm loving how Shoddy
- 6:46Speaker 7: and Dark is.
- 6:48Speaker 9: Oh my goodness, it's looking so good.
- 6:50Speaker 7: It looking so good. Remember I called last year and
- 6:52Speaker 7: I said, please lest shot. He called the place for
- 6:55Speaker 7: Dak since him and you know, everybody was comparing Dak
- 6:59Speaker 7: the rusted Wilson and better. And it looked like Russey
- 7:02Speaker 7: Wilson had a little flashback when he's met up with
- 7:05Speaker 7: Shy again. Yeah, true, yeah, but that that's really it.
- 7:11Speaker 2: Nick.
- 7:12Speaker 7: I just don't hurt nobody.
- 7:13Speaker 2: All right, obviously it'll be a fun day. It's good day.
- 7:17Speaker 2: We don't hurt anyone today. It was a great, great game,
- 7:20Speaker 2: great win. And I'm not one thanks for the call, Jeremy.
- 7:23Speaker 2: I'm not one that thinks that that, you know, oh well,
- 7:26Speaker 2: it's just the Jets. I mean, you're you're supposed to
- 7:29Speaker 2: take care of business there. You're supposed to win those games,
- 7:32Speaker 2: and and they dominated that and and you know, Jeremy
- 7:35Speaker 2: just mentioned five or six different players. You could talk about,
- 7:38Speaker 2: the running back and the tight end. And Ferguson's playing
- 7:42Speaker 2: really good, and you know, it's complimentary to what he's
- 7:46Speaker 2: that safety valve for Dak. He's really really you know,
- 7:50Speaker 2: in the right spot there. And I mean this is
- 7:53Speaker 2: not a disrespect to to Ferguson. It's really more of
- 7:57Speaker 2: a compliment to them. But that's like a extended running play.
- 8:01Speaker 2: When they're passing the ball to Ferguson, it's not it's
- 8:04Speaker 2: a it's an easy pitch and catch. And while it's
- 8:08Speaker 2: a quarterback to a tight end and it's averaging I
- 8:10Speaker 2: think seven yards six yards seven something like that for
- 8:13Speaker 2: the season, but you know, think of it almost like
- 8:16Speaker 2: a running play because that's how safe it's it's become
- 8:20Speaker 2: that's you know, that's and it also can extend to more.
- 8:23Speaker 2: So it I'm not calling it a run, I'm not,
- 8:27Speaker 2: you know, I'm just saying it's a it's a safe
- 8:30Speaker 2: play that's getting them six seven yards and sometimes more,
- 8:34Speaker 2: and so that that's really helping the offense even more.
- 8:37Speaker 2: All right, Travis and san Antonio's next.
- 8:41Speaker 10: Nick Happy victory Monday.
- 8:43Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure, great win.
- 8:45Speaker 11: Yep, I know you were.
- 8:47Speaker 10: I kind of heard the end of what you're just
- 8:48Speaker 10: talking about there about you know, everyone's saying it's the Jets,
- 8:50Speaker 10: but we did have some meal. It's to me, it's
- 8:53Speaker 10: we can do both things right because the national media
- 8:56Speaker 10: says own now cowboys stands are gonna be sitting here
- 8:58Speaker 10: saying we're going to the super Bowl, which is completely
- 8:59Speaker 10: non sensing, which is why I don't listen to it.
- 9:02Speaker 10: But you can also appreciate that. Yeah, they had four
- 9:05Speaker 10: offensive linemen out, two of the best receivers out, and
- 9:10Speaker 10: the question was where they going to pass this taf
- 9:12Speaker 10: could they keep the momentum going on offense? The answer
- 9:14Speaker 10: is yes. So that is an achievement. So you got
- 9:16Speaker 10: to give big ups to Shottenheimer. I think I said
- 9:19Speaker 10: multiple times in this game, Nick, like good play, good play,
- 9:22Speaker 10: call like it was good rhythm, it was well timed.
- 9:26Speaker 10: And then I'm going to say this again this week.
- 9:27Speaker 10: I don't know what we got to do. Everyone's saying
- 9:29Speaker 10: pay this guy, pay that guy. I don't know. My
- 9:31Speaker 10: biggest fear is is that we lose Clayton Adams because man,
- 9:35Speaker 10: Clayton Adams and Count Riley, I can't say enough, like
- 9:37Speaker 10: I've been saying since San Francisco last week, if you
- 9:40Speaker 10: want to see the best Dack, let's re establish and
- 9:43Speaker 10: reinvent the running game. And I think that support for him.
- 9:47Speaker 10: I think that's an under appreciated thing Nick, where I
- 9:49Speaker 10: think it also frees up back too, because he knows, like, Okay,
- 9:52Speaker 10: if I don't have my best stuff, we have a
- 9:54Speaker 10: change up. I can hand this ball off it, we
- 9:56Speaker 10: can go dominate. So I think that's a huge thing.
- 10:00Speaker 10: And then the last thing, I think Brian and Lakeland,
- 10:02Speaker 10: who was in Lakeland he moved back to San Antonio,
- 10:04Speaker 10: wanted me to tell you. He wanted to shout out
- 10:07Speaker 10: the basically end of the halfs the cowboys being greedy,
- 10:11Speaker 10: you know, which turned out to be a really good thing.
- 10:13Speaker 10: Using the timeout to get the ball back, he goes
- 10:15Speaker 10: on that long run they score again. So I'm just
- 10:17Speaker 10: doubling up there. And that's the advantage that we talking
- 10:20Speaker 10: about about receiving right or kicking first and then being
- 10:22Speaker 10: able to double up.
- 10:23Speaker 2: So yeah, I just.
- 10:24Speaker 10: Wanted to point that out and tell you guys, it's
- 10:26Speaker 10: awesome that they got to win and looking forward to Carolina,
- 10:28Speaker 10: let's go, all right, kick the dattles.
- 10:30Speaker 2: But thanks Travis, they didn't. That's the thing you're talking
- 10:35Speaker 2: about deferring and getting the ball to start the third quarter,
- 10:39Speaker 2: and that's how you double up. They didn't double up.
- 10:41Speaker 2: Then they doubled up twice before the half, which is
- 10:44Speaker 2: very rare. Once the Jets threw the ball on first
- 10:48Speaker 2: down to come out of the break, I'm sorry, after
- 10:51Speaker 2: the Cowboys had scored to make it I guess they
- 10:54Speaker 2: made it seventeen to three, and with fifty seconds to go,
- 10:58Speaker 2: the Jets could have just run the ball and got
- 11:02Speaker 2: out of here, but they threw it on first down.
- 11:04Speaker 2: It was incomplete. That changed everything because now the Cowboys,
- 11:07Speaker 2: with two timeouts, could stop it twice. What happened they
- 11:10Speaker 2: got a sack, which they called timeout. Then there was
- 11:13Speaker 2: another short play short of the first down, another timeout.
- 11:16Speaker 2: Cowboys get the ball back, but you know they were
- 11:18Speaker 2: going for a field goal, and that's what should have happened.
- 11:21Speaker 2: But then Javonte Williams ran the ball sixty six yards
- 11:25Speaker 2: and nobody couldn't get to sixty seven, but you know,
- 11:29Speaker 2: he ran it, and then that led to another touchdown.
- 11:32Speaker 2: I think the Cowboys scored twice in forty two seconds,
- 11:35Speaker 2: and that's the second time that's happened in two games
- 11:38Speaker 2: now where the Cowboys have scored two touchdowns in less
- 11:40Speaker 2: than a minute. Right before the half, Sergeant Sue and
- 11:43Speaker 2: fort Worth is next. Sergeant Sue was up.
- 11:46Speaker 12: Eddie's everybody, how you doing it?
- 11:47Speaker 7: Good?
- 11:47Speaker 2: Good?
- 11:48Speaker 12: Hey man, I'm feeling really good man. One thing that
- 11:50Speaker 12: I want to say right now is culture. Culture.
- 11:53Speaker 5: Culture.
- 11:54Speaker 12: A lot of us, you know, weren't really excited about
- 11:57Speaker 12: the shoddy Higher. Some people will call him, you know,
- 12:00Speaker 12: a puppet, or some people call him whatever they call him,
- 12:02Speaker 12: you know, but you know, I saw something with him
- 12:05Speaker 12: that I haven't seen in a very long time. That
- 12:07Speaker 12: compete every day, all day, every day to the wheels
- 12:10Speaker 12: come off, that thing that he's been preaching this whole time.
- 12:13Speaker 12: We're seeing it. I mean we're down to you know,
- 12:15Speaker 12: six seven, eighth, ninth offensive linemen, linebackers are out, safeties
- 12:19Speaker 12: are out.
- 12:19Speaker 5: Wide receivers are out.
- 12:20Speaker 12: We lost one of the you know, top three wide
- 12:23Speaker 12: receivers in the league, top three pass rusher went to
- 12:25Speaker 12: a different team. It doesn't matter. He's preaching every single day.
- 12:29Speaker 12: You go out there, you compete, You're a grown man,
- 12:31Speaker 12: you could fight, you could make plays, and we're seeing that. Man,
- 12:34Speaker 12: that's something that I really think that he deserves a
- 12:36Speaker 12: lot of kudos for.
- 12:37Speaker 11: You know, he has a lot to prove.
- 12:39Speaker 5: Still going forward. Consistency is what's going to be key.
- 12:42Speaker 12: But I think that that's something that you could really
- 12:45Speaker 12: you know, you have to salute him for that, you know.
- 12:46Speaker 12: I mean, so I think that's really something that's exciting
- 12:49Speaker 12: going forward. We got a couple of games coming up
- 12:50Speaker 12: that we should be able to clean up as well,
- 12:52Speaker 12: and let's get this thing going. Man, I appreciate you
- 12:54Speaker 12: for taking my call.
- 12:54Speaker 2: Brothers, Yeah, thank you. You know, after the game against
- 12:58Speaker 2: the Packers, I believe that you know, the cameras NFL films,
- 13:01Speaker 2: cameras that might have been our cameras that got shot.
- 13:03Speaker 2: He talking about that game and he said, you know,
- 13:06Speaker 2: that was tough. It was to tie, but he said,
- 13:09Speaker 2: we're going to go on and run. You know, we're
- 13:11Speaker 2: going to do this. We're about to go on to run, guys,
- 13:13Speaker 2: And you know that's I know it's one game, but
- 13:16Speaker 2: that's what it looked like. You know, it looked like
- 13:18Speaker 2: that they're kind of ready to do this. And when
- 13:21Speaker 2: you look at the schedule, there's nothing on this schedule
- 13:24Speaker 2: that you would think, all right, you can't go win.
- 13:27Speaker 2: And now I saw you know, everyone's happy that Denver
- 13:30Speaker 2: beat the Eagles. I get that, and then you got
- 13:32Speaker 2: to go to Denver. It's a place you haven't won
- 13:33Speaker 2: since nineteen ninety two, so it's been a long time,
- 13:37Speaker 2: and that's going to be a really tough game. But
- 13:39Speaker 2: every everything is winnable, you know, with the way the
- 13:41Speaker 2: Cowboys are scoring points right now, everything's everything's winnable. And
- 13:45Speaker 2: going back to the Travis question about Clayton Adams and
- 13:50Speaker 2: Connor Riley, both of them on the offensive line. You know,
- 13:53Speaker 2: when when they hired Clayton Adams, who was the old
- 13:56Speaker 2: line coach for the Cardinals, it was like, okay, he's
- 13:58Speaker 2: he's an O line guy. He's not going to just
- 14:01Speaker 2: coach that. Then they got Connor Riley, who is the
- 14:03Speaker 2: old line, So a lot of resources there to this
- 14:05Speaker 2: offensive line, and it's showing. I mean that they look
- 14:09Speaker 2: how well coached these guys are because they're stepping right
- 14:12Speaker 2: in and they're playing and you know, no one's mentioning TJ. Bass,
- 14:17Speaker 2: but he plays really, really well. And if it wasn't
- 14:20Speaker 2: for an offside penalty on Quinn Williams, they're all Pro
- 14:24Speaker 2: defensive tackle. He got called for offsides. I don't know
- 14:27Speaker 2: if he would have really heard his name. I don't
- 14:29Speaker 2: think he did much. Sauce Gardner, you know, he's there,
- 14:33Speaker 2: All Pro corner and he didn't do anything. He lost
- 14:36Speaker 2: a deep ball, you know, one on one and some
- 14:38Speaker 2: hand fighting with George Pickens. He did not win that
- 14:40Speaker 2: hand fight, and you know, a great you know, great job.
- 14:44Speaker 2: So those two players right there are the best two
- 14:47Speaker 2: that the Jets have, and they were neutralized, especially on
- 14:49Speaker 2: the offensive line. All right, let's go to Brian in
- 14:52Speaker 2: Kansas City. Good morning, sir, How are you doing?
- 14:56Speaker 6: Good man?
- 14:56Speaker 8: Good? It was so nice to see a game where
- 15:00Speaker 8: for most of the game, once we had it. You know,
- 15:03Speaker 8: once we got up by two scores, there was no
- 15:07Speaker 8: real angst. I know, there was no like you know,
- 15:10Speaker 8: biting your nails like god, now what you know it was?
- 15:15Speaker 8: It was really it had been a while since I
- 15:18Speaker 8: could remember a game like that. So and you know,
- 15:22Speaker 8: the thing that that really crossed my mind as and
- 15:25Speaker 8: you touched on how well the backup offensive lineman played.
- 15:29Speaker 8: But when I looked at at kind of towards the
- 15:32Speaker 8: end of the game, the thing that really, you know,
- 15:36Speaker 8: the thing that I thought about was how valuable especially
- 15:41Speaker 8: knowing that we won. You know, in hindsight, how valuable
- 15:45Speaker 8: is it that so many of these players who are
- 15:49Speaker 8: not normally going to be who are not starters, they
- 15:52Speaker 8: are not going to be big contributors in the future.
- 15:55Speaker 8: You know, got time, got first team reps in a
- 16:00Speaker 8: live game, and we won, you know, like like Flornoy,
- 16:07Speaker 8: like you know, you look at how his performance when
- 16:10Speaker 8: everybody's healthy, that guy is so deep on the depth chart.
- 16:14Speaker 8: He's not going to have a game like that again,
- 16:16Speaker 8: not in the near future, you know, except for injury.
- 16:20Speaker 8: But now you look at the value of this and
- 16:24Speaker 8: James and and you know, all the people, you know,
- 16:27Speaker 8: all the four backup offensive linemen and all these guys.
- 16:33Speaker 8: You look at the value of this if if Flournoy
- 16:37Speaker 8: had to come into a game late in the year,
- 16:39Speaker 8: big big, you know, whatever, the playoffs are on the line,
- 16:45Speaker 8: or maybe maybe we make the playoffs, and you know,
- 16:49Speaker 8: Dak would have absolute faith in him because he's seen it.
- 16:52Speaker 8: He knows he can do it, and Flornoy knows he
- 16:54Speaker 8: can do it. And that's so valuable to these guys
- 16:58Speaker 8: that don't get much playing time.
- 17:00Speaker 4: That's it.
- 17:00Speaker 8: That's it, man, what a great game. Go Cowboys.
- 17:03Speaker 2: Thank you. You know, it's funny. There's two sides, as
- 17:07Speaker 2: Parcels would say, there's two sides to that pancake when
- 17:11Speaker 2: he was when everyone says, well, why don't the starters
- 17:14Speaker 2: play more in the preseason and things like that, where
- 17:17Speaker 2: you know, I mean, you'd like for them too, but
- 17:19Speaker 2: at the same time, they're also, uh, you know, risking injury.
- 17:24Speaker 2: But what's happening is is if they're not playing, then
- 17:26Speaker 2: you have a lot of young guys that are playing,
- 17:29Speaker 2: and so you know, you you can now you can
- 17:32Speaker 2: look back and go, man, I'm kind of glad they
- 17:35Speaker 2: did that. I'm glad that that Nate Thomas got a
- 17:38Speaker 2: lot of snaps. TJ. Bass brock Hoffman, they got a
- 17:41Speaker 2: lot of snaps. They're in the in the preseason games.
- 17:46Speaker 2: You know, Identity played some there. Flinoy played a lot
- 17:49Speaker 2: in the preseason and so he's just kind of gotten
- 17:52Speaker 2: better and better. Uh as as we've moved along here
- 17:56Speaker 2: all right, Jr. In Avondale, Arizona Jr. What's up?
- 18:01Speaker 5: Good morning, Mick House, everything in Dallas. Good, excellent, happy
- 18:05Speaker 5: victory Monday. So none of my really predictions of who
- 18:09Speaker 5: was going to intercept and none of that came true.
- 18:11Speaker 5: But who cares?
- 18:12Speaker 8: Because we won, right right?
- 18:14Speaker 5: My final score I said would be thirty eight seventeen
- 18:17Speaker 5: and it wasn't. But who cares? We won? Pretty cool anyway,
- 18:22Speaker 5: y'all talked about a lot of stuff that I was
- 18:23Speaker 5: going to talk about, But let's get some a shout
- 18:26Speaker 5: out and some props to Will McClay and his group
- 18:29Speaker 5: and the Joneses for finding these offensive linemen, because these
- 18:33Speaker 5: guys aren't third round picks and stuff like that, right,
- 18:36Speaker 5: these are free agents. And I think Nate Thomas is
- 18:39Speaker 5: up fifth or seven round pick, I'm.
- 18:41Speaker 2: Not sure which, yeah, sixth maybe, But.
- 18:45Speaker 5: These guys are playing at a level. All you have
- 18:49Speaker 5: to do is watch though the Washington LA game yesterday
- 18:53Speaker 5: and the Chargers had a couple of linemen out and
- 18:55Speaker 5: they cannot protect Herbert and they look terrible. So my
- 18:59Speaker 5: house off to getting the talent, acquiring the talent right.
- 19:03Speaker 5: And then something I haven't heard us talk about is
- 19:05Speaker 5: Shamar James. He had fifteen tackles yesterday. Gots more tackles
- 19:10Speaker 5: than a Cowboy player has had since Sean Lee in
- 19:13Speaker 5: twenty fifteen. So think about that for a second. He
- 19:17Speaker 5: was balding yesterday. I think that he has got himself
- 19:21Speaker 5: a spot. And I'll say the same thing for Ryan Flanoy.
- 19:26Speaker 5: I think he kind of bumped Tolbert right off the
- 19:28Speaker 5: edge of the table. So that's really all I had today.
- 19:32Speaker 5: Great win, go Cowboys.
- 19:34Speaker 2: All right, thank you j R. You know you mentioned
- 19:37Speaker 2: Shamar James. You want some ironyou How about this stat
- 19:42Speaker 2: Chamar James. I looked it up. How many rookies have
- 19:45Speaker 2: had fifteen tackles in the game, and it's like thirty
- 19:49Speaker 2: six have done it. So thirty six players NFL history
- 19:53Speaker 2: have done it, So you know that's that's great. Two Cowboys,
- 19:56Speaker 2: the Lton vander esh did as a rookie in eighteen,
- 19:59Speaker 2: and then so did Shamar James yesterday. Also on the
- 20:03Speaker 2: list was Jack Sanborn, who happened to be the player
- 20:09Speaker 2: that Shamar James replaced, So he replaced Sanborn, who's also
- 20:15Speaker 2: had a fifteen tackle game as a rookie against the
- 20:18Speaker 2: Jets back in twenty twenty two with the Bears. So
- 20:21Speaker 2: kind of ironic little stat But yeah, I mean the
- 20:25Speaker 2: way he played and the way he flew to the football,
- 20:28Speaker 2: He's going to continue to get better, and that'll be
- 20:31Speaker 2: one where that's gonna be when you look at all
- 20:34Speaker 2: the decisions. Okay, Guiden comes back, what do you do
- 20:37Speaker 2: with Nate Thomas Nothing? I think you play Guitton. What
- 20:41Speaker 2: do you do with Flinoy he comes back? I think
- 20:44Speaker 2: he does play more. He's got to be in there
- 20:46Speaker 2: in your system more, even even taking some of Turpin's
- 20:52Speaker 2: snaps depending on how they want to play certain things,
- 20:55Speaker 2: because I think Turpin still gadget player, which is good.
- 20:58Speaker 2: That's not disrespect. You need that when you've got some
- 21:01Speaker 2: really really great receivers on the outside. Mingo's coming back,
- 21:05Speaker 2: so they got decisions to make there. But Shamar James
- 21:09Speaker 2: and Sambourne. That's one where you know James is just
- 21:12Speaker 2: going to have to play more. He has to, especially
- 21:14Speaker 2: with the defensive tackles the way you have it here.
- 21:17Speaker 2: All right, let's go, let's go to break real quick.
- 21:20Speaker 2: I don't want to have to rush our next caller

- 23:35Speaker 2: to two and one. Let's go to the phone lines.
- 23:38Speaker 2: Rob in Vegas is next, Hey Nick, Hey Rob.
- 23:43Speaker 9: The word of the day is opportunity.
- 23:45Speaker 2: Okay.
- 23:46Speaker 9: I mean we've seen it in the history of football
- 23:51Speaker 9: with the goat Tom Brady. You you get a chance
- 23:54Speaker 9: to play, it changes, it could change your life, could
- 23:57Speaker 9: change the team. I thought yesterday, you know, Flounoy kind
- 24:03Speaker 9: of reminds me of Dez, a little bit, big body.
- 24:07Speaker 9: He's different than the rest of the wide receivers we have,
- 24:09Speaker 9: and he's a playmaker and I and uh, you know,
- 24:13Speaker 9: there was a couple of plays where he would catch
- 24:16Speaker 9: the ball, he still needed a couple of yards to
- 24:17Speaker 9: get the first down, and he when some guys over
- 24:20Speaker 9: and get it. With our other wide receivers, little guys,
- 24:23Speaker 9: they can't really do that, right. I thought the offensive
- 24:27Speaker 9: line was fantastic. I disagree with you about Geidon Will
- 24:30Speaker 9: They probably try him again yet, But I just think, uh,
- 24:36Speaker 9: Nate Thomas played so good, and I just think Jack
- 24:39Speaker 9: looked so cold. I don't think Dak got sacked the
- 24:41Speaker 9: whole game.
- 24:43Speaker 2: If he did, it's that one play where he was
- 24:45Speaker 2: rushing again, very similar to the microp player where he slid.
- 24:49Speaker 2: They called that a sack. But yeah, not in the pocket.
- 24:52Speaker 2: I don't believe so.
- 24:53Speaker 9: No, Yeah, I just think Thomas just a little more
- 24:56Speaker 9: solid right now. But we'll see what happens. And Hoffman,
- 25:01Speaker 9: I'm not sure. Hoffman's not better than BB at center.
- 25:05Speaker 2: I don't know if I disagree there. I don't think
- 25:08Speaker 2: I'm not. I'm not disagreeing with you.
- 25:10Speaker 9: He's really good.
- 25:12Speaker 2: He really is, and he's you know, he's just kind
- 25:17Speaker 2: of what you want in there, right, nothing against me.
- 25:22Speaker 2: I don't know. This is a tough one. Yeah, it
- 25:27Speaker 2: certainly is, because these guys get hurt, they get banged up,
- 25:30Speaker 2: is you know, but you've got ten You've got ten
- 25:33Speaker 2: guys that are that are just playing, you know, together,
- 25:36Speaker 2: and they're going to be needed and you know, Steele
- 25:39Speaker 2: will get banged up maybe or Guidon gets banged up,
- 25:42Speaker 2: and you know Nate Thomas. Let's let's be fair now,
- 25:45Speaker 2: Nate Thomas was a seventh round pig talent wise second
- 25:50Speaker 2: or third, Okay, but the list of his injuries coming
- 25:54Speaker 2: out of college was almost comical, even though injuries aren't funny.
- 25:58Speaker 2: But you wouldn't believe eve how many injuries they read
- 26:01Speaker 2: off in the war room when they were saying, this
- 26:03Speaker 2: is what this guy's dealing with, and so he's had,
- 26:06Speaker 2: you know, so if he helped health wise, he was
- 26:09Speaker 2: a he was a really good prospect, but he just
- 26:11Speaker 2: couldn't stay healthy. So that being said, you know, it's
- 26:14Speaker 2: better to have a bunch of guys here.
- 26:17Speaker 9: Yeah, and I agree with you know on defense, you
- 26:20Speaker 9: know juan Ye Thomas Uh I think is a good
- 26:26Speaker 9: young player. I think he should be on the field.
- 26:28Speaker 9: Shama James showed up. Uh Luis l made one. I
- 26:32Speaker 9: think one of the biggest plays with the punch out,
- 26:35Speaker 9: no doubt. I just think they found some young guys
- 26:39Speaker 9: and and now you rolle with them. I why not. Uh,
- 26:42Speaker 9: it's not like the guys that are way better, if
- 26:45Speaker 9: better at all. Jak is just on another level. You know,
- 26:49Speaker 9: Dylan said it last week.
- 26:52Speaker 5: You know, Romo is.
- 26:53Speaker 9: Always good and then that one year you could just
- 26:56Speaker 9: see Romo just saw the play before it started. Yeah,
- 27:00Speaker 9: you're starting to see that with Dak. Jak doesn't look flustered.
- 27:06Speaker 9: You know, in the in the past, he looked flustered.
- 27:09Speaker 9: Now he's seen it before it happens, and he's doing
- 27:14Speaker 9: it without his best wide receive it. You know, it's
- 27:17Speaker 9: nice that Pickings is kind of you know, we heard
- 27:20Speaker 9: he could be a number one. Yeah, I think he can.
- 27:22Speaker 2: Yeah, he certainly, all right.
- 27:24Speaker 9: But yeah, no, great, great game, great win, and like
- 27:27Speaker 9: you said, it's time to go on a roll.
- 27:28Speaker 2: All right, roll appreciate that, you know, And I mentioned
- 27:31Speaker 2: it last week, and I think Dylan's right. Rob's right
- 27:34Speaker 2: when you're talking about that year comparing that year that
- 27:37Speaker 2: Rumo had in twenty fourteen where he really just started
- 27:39Speaker 2: to see it and it clicked for him. Also clicked
- 27:42Speaker 2: because he had an eighteen hundred yard rusher there in
- 27:44Speaker 2: DeMarco Murray who had one hundred yards every single game,
- 27:49Speaker 2: and he might have had a fumble every now and again,
- 27:50Speaker 2: but he also would have one hundred yards or and
- 27:53Speaker 2: score a touchdown and it was worth it that season.
- 27:56Speaker 2: And so you know, Dak, Yeah, he's sixty million a year,
- 27:59Speaker 2: I get it, but he's getting help and he doesn't
- 28:02Speaker 2: have to do everything, and on third and two they
- 28:05Speaker 2: can run it. They can run it here on third
- 28:07Speaker 2: and three if they need to, and they have a
- 28:10Speaker 2: running back that's getting more yards. So and also credit
- 28:14Speaker 2: the offense of play calling and scheme. You know, it's
- 28:18Speaker 2: not like, yeah, the offensive line's done a nice job,
- 28:21Speaker 2: but they're also protecting the line as well. You know,
- 28:24Speaker 2: they're giving it help, you know, help at times when
- 28:27Speaker 2: they're going up against the Packers and Michael Parsons or
- 28:29Speaker 2: in a game like this. They got the ball out
- 28:31Speaker 2: of Dak's hands early, which means these receivers. I mean,
- 28:34Speaker 2: the slant pass is back, and we haven't really seen
- 28:38Speaker 2: it work like this. I mean, should I say Apeman
- 28:43Speaker 2: to Irvin, I mean, like we just that wasn't a
- 28:46Speaker 2: pass romo through a lot and even Dak early in
- 28:50Speaker 2: his career, it just didn't seem like I could be wrong,
- 28:53Speaker 2: but I don't remember the slant as much as I've
- 28:57Speaker 2: seen it this year. And I there were a lot
- 29:00Speaker 2: of big plays in the game, and obviously the fumble
- 29:03Speaker 2: by lea foul was huge, but right after that, okay,
- 29:07Speaker 2: five yard penalty on Cropper, he's got that he didn't
- 29:09Speaker 2: line up right, and it's first and fifteen. You're back
- 29:12Speaker 2: at your own five. They got it back to the ten.
- 29:15Speaker 2: It's second and ten. The Jets called time out. They're
- 29:17Speaker 2: going to get the ball here at midfield and probably
- 29:19Speaker 2: go get a field goal. Second and ten slant to
- 29:23Speaker 2: Flinoy for ten. That was huge. He got that. Now
- 29:27Speaker 2: it's like, wait a second, now we're going to get points.
- 29:31Speaker 2: We're going we're driving to get points. Well, they drove, drove,
- 29:34Speaker 2: and they Illinois with another big catch and then they
- 29:37Speaker 2: scored and then got the ball and scored again. But
- 29:39Speaker 2: that ten yard slant of Illinois was huge because that
- 29:43Speaker 2: opened up the offense to say, all right, now we're
- 29:46Speaker 2: not backing our own end zone. We got it first down,
- 29:48Speaker 2: let's go get points for Aubrey. And they got a
- 29:50Speaker 2: lot more than that. So I thought that was a huge,
- 29:53Speaker 2: huge play in the game. All right, Brandon and Fresno,
- 29:57Speaker 2: it's next.
- 29:58Speaker 5: Hey Brandon, happy victory.
- 30:00Speaker 9: Monday Man. Once again, kudos to dak Man. He's playing
- 30:05Speaker 9: his butt off, man. I mean, people say they want
- 30:07Speaker 9: to see him runing. He's running, he's moving, he's moving,
- 30:10Speaker 9: you know, he's picking up picking up the next yards.
- 30:12Speaker 9: But I'm not worried about the office. I was worried
- 30:15Speaker 9: about the running the game. But Jeanty Williams man, he's
- 30:17Speaker 9: a man, a guy he is. He's running with a vengeance.
- 30:20Speaker 9: So kudos to the offense. Offense is great, But how
- 30:23Speaker 9: about this defensive line man, James Houston. You know, I think, honestly,
- 30:27Speaker 9: I think he's got something going. And Dante Fowlers showed out.
- 30:31Speaker 9: I know it's the Jets, but I just wanted to
- 30:33Speaker 9: see what you've seen on that defensive line team, Like
- 30:35Speaker 9: after that Green Bay game, is just they out all
- 30:38Speaker 9: that jitters out about number one over there. But now
- 30:41Speaker 9: it just seems like this D line is moving. Kenney
- 30:43Speaker 9: Clark's moving, like everybody's moving on that D line. That
- 30:45Speaker 9: seem me yesterday it just it looked really good. So
- 30:48Speaker 9: I just wanted to say happy victory Monday. And you
- 30:51Speaker 9: know the score Cowboys was get Carolina and Rico Dawell.
- 30:54Speaker 2: All right, we'll talk about Rico here. Thanks for the call, Brandon,
- 30:58Speaker 2: You're right, the D line playing as a unit, I thought,
- 31:02Speaker 2: by far Dante Fowler's best game maybe since he has
- 31:06Speaker 2: played for the Cowboys and this will be his third
- 31:09Speaker 2: year with the Cowboys overall, and I thought he played
- 31:11Speaker 2: really good in the game. You know, Kenny Clark played
- 31:15Speaker 2: well osa Osa the last two games. Is starting to
- 31:18Speaker 2: really during the corner. But you know, when you talk
- 31:22Speaker 2: about players that they've added, it starts with Pickens, right,
- 31:27Speaker 2: I mean Pickens has been outstanding, right below Davonte Williams.
- 31:32Speaker 2: I mean Davonte Williams. I mean those two guys together,
- 31:36Speaker 2: So I get it. That's one and two for sure.
- 31:38Speaker 2: I could be missing someone. But where does Solomon Thomas
- 31:43Speaker 2: rank here? Because I mean maybe third, but he's been
- 31:47Speaker 2: very good and he came back. You know, this was
- 31:50Speaker 2: a guy that was third overall. I mean he's the
- 31:53Speaker 2: third overall pick in the draft way back when, and
- 31:56Speaker 2: he's played with the forty nine ers, he played with
- 31:58Speaker 2: the Jets, and he was you know, he was very
- 32:01Speaker 2: complimentary of the Jets all week long and even after
- 32:05Speaker 2: the game. But this game meant something and it showed.
- 32:07Speaker 2: I mean it showed he really played his butt off
- 32:09Speaker 2: in that game. And that's just providing even more depth.
- 32:14Speaker 2: I mean, there's been so many years we didn't have
- 32:16Speaker 2: two defensive tackles that we're playing. Well, now you have
- 32:19Speaker 2: three for sure. Really good stuff. All right, let's go
- 32:21Speaker 2: to Ierwin in Colorado. He's next.
- 32:24Speaker 16: Good morning, Nick, How you doing good?
- 32:26Speaker 4: How are you doing good?
- 32:28Speaker 16: Doing really good?
- 32:29Speaker 12: Hey, just a couple of things.
- 32:30Speaker 7: I'll keep it quick. How refreshing is it for the.
- 32:34Speaker 16: Play calling from a year ago? I mean, I don't
- 32:36Speaker 16: want to bashroom my carts here anything like that, but
- 32:38Speaker 16: you could clearly see the difference between his play calling
- 32:40Speaker 16: and shot he's play calling and the other thing. I
- 32:43Speaker 16: wanted to ask you, have you heard any whisperers or
- 32:47Speaker 16: any rumors or anything about Jerry Jones possibly making some
- 32:51Speaker 16: kind of a trade on an impact defensive player, and
- 32:54Speaker 16: I'll let you go.
- 32:55Speaker 2: Thanks for taking my call, all right, I haven't heard
- 32:58Speaker 2: that yet. I mean, I mean, they're obviously on the
- 33:00Speaker 2: table that they can do that, but you know, it's
- 33:03Speaker 2: it's also one of those things where you kind of
- 33:05Speaker 2: want to see what you are still in, what what
- 33:09Speaker 2: you need? You know, what are you what are you missing?
- 33:14Speaker 2: You know you have Schamarrow James. Now that's playing something linebackers,
- 33:17Speaker 2: so you kind of want to see a little bit
- 33:19Speaker 2: more what you have there. And then over shown will
- 33:21Speaker 2: be back defensive end pass rush. I mean that that
- 33:25Speaker 2: would always be there that you know, they would probably
- 33:28Speaker 2: always I think I think you kind of know what
- 33:31Speaker 2: you're going to get with these guys used to may
- 33:33Speaker 2: continue to get better and Sam Williams and all that.
- 33:36Speaker 2: But you know, if that if that position opened up
- 33:39Speaker 2: as a possible trade to kind of take them over
- 33:41Speaker 2: the top. Sure, but but yeah, going back to your
- 33:45Speaker 2: question or just your comment about the play calling, Yeah,
- 33:47Speaker 2: the play calling has been really good and and I
- 33:50Speaker 2: I just think it stems all from the running game.
- 33:53Speaker 2: I really do. I believe that you have to respect it.
- 33:57Speaker 2: You the safeties have to come up, you have to
- 33:59Speaker 2: respect and now the play action is working more than
- 34:02Speaker 2: it's ever worked before. And that's why Ferguson is catching
- 34:06Speaker 2: the ball that he's catching. How many times have you
- 34:07Speaker 2: seen him just play action, rolls out to the side,
- 34:11Speaker 2: makes the catch six yards, seven yards, Maybe he breaks
- 34:15Speaker 2: it up field for a little bit for ten or eleven,
- 34:17Speaker 2: but I thought, you know, that was big.
- 34:19Speaker 5: You know.
- 34:19Speaker 2: Another key play in the game, and I put this
- 34:21Speaker 2: in my five plays, was on the touchdown drive in
- 34:25Speaker 2: the second quarter, early second quarters, three to three. The
- 34:28Speaker 2: Cowboys are driving. It's third and ten and they throw
- 34:32Speaker 2: a little swing out to It was a dump off
- 34:35Speaker 2: really because he was trying to get down the field
- 34:37Speaker 2: deck with down the field, but he dumped it off
- 34:38Speaker 2: to Tulipke did not look like he was going to
- 34:41Speaker 2: get ten yards, but he went straight north and got
- 34:45Speaker 2: ten exactly moved the chains. That was a really big play.
- 34:48Speaker 2: Then that opened up even more for the offense to
- 34:52Speaker 2: go down and they ended up taking the lead on
- 34:54Speaker 2: their first touchdown. I thought that was a big play
- 34:56Speaker 2: in the game because it's still early, it's three to three.
- 34:59Speaker 2: You know, you're trying to trying to move the ball
- 35:01Speaker 2: and they would have had to punt it back, and
- 35:03Speaker 2: that that one was the play that kind of got
- 35:05Speaker 2: him going here, let's go to break here one more
- 35:08Speaker 2: time on Cowboys storyline. Will be right back after this.

- 36:57Speaker 19: Hey A And a happy victory Monday. You know it's
- 37:05Speaker 19: just the Jets, but I don't care about that. It
- 37:07Speaker 19: was a good win. I love this physical brand of
- 37:10Speaker 19: football the Boys are playing. And how about Clayton Adams. Man,
- 37:13Speaker 19: this run game is looking sweet, and it's just I
- 37:17Speaker 19: don't remember the last time we had a team that
- 37:19Speaker 19: was so physical. It's not finess, it's power of football
- 37:22Speaker 19: and I'm loving it. And some of these young guys
- 37:24Speaker 19: on defense are starting to come round. So it just
- 37:27Speaker 19: feels good to feel good on a Monday.
- 37:29Speaker 2: Zach, I love it. I feel that's well said. Thank you, Casey.
- 37:34Speaker 2: You know I have a point about the Clayton Adams
- 37:37Speaker 2: and this is the second time I've written his name
- 37:38Speaker 2: down here. You guys are talking about him this to me,
- 37:42Speaker 2: and I said this on I do a hit on
- 37:44Speaker 2: the radio one O five three of the fan in Dows.
- 37:46Speaker 2: I said that this morning, and I'll say it again.
- 37:48Speaker 2: This is another example where you know, we love to
- 37:53Speaker 2: judge the moves that are made in the draft and
- 37:56Speaker 2: free agency. And this guy they got him, he's washed up.
- 38:00Speaker 2: He's not any good. He wasn't good at this team
- 38:02Speaker 2: or this team. But remember that coaches have visions for players.
- 38:06Speaker 2: And when Clayton Adams stood up there in his very
- 38:09Speaker 2: first press conference and said, I'm going to be We're
- 38:12Speaker 2: going to be a violent running team. Our offensive linee
- 38:15Speaker 2: is going to be it's gonna be violent. That's the
- 38:17Speaker 2: way we're gonna run, and we are going to play
- 38:21Speaker 2: smash mouth football. Okay, that being said, who do you
- 38:24Speaker 2: want to be your running back? Well? How about this
- 38:27Speaker 2: guy right here, Javonte Williams. He had an injury two
- 38:30Speaker 2: years ago. I don't know if Denver used them the
- 38:32Speaker 2: right way. I'm not saying all that, just I know
- 38:34Speaker 2: the vision I have for him, and when he comes in,
- 38:37Speaker 2: this is how I want to use I need a
- 38:39Speaker 2: back like that, and that's what we're seeing. I mean,
- 38:42Speaker 2: he is the perfect back for what they want to do.
- 38:46Speaker 2: No offense to Rico Daddle. They could have resigned him,
- 38:49Speaker 2: but that's not the back that they wanted. They wanted
- 38:51Speaker 2: a different back, And I think of the thousand yards
- 38:54Speaker 2: you know, probably priced Rico out for what they were
- 38:58Speaker 2: trying to do. Obviously, they play the Panthers this week.
- 39:02Speaker 2: Credit to him two hundred yard or two oh six rushing?
- 39:06Speaker 2: You kidding me? I mean like that? That what? What
- 39:08Speaker 2: an outstanding performance for him? And they got to look
- 39:11Speaker 2: it up. I don't know how many two hundred yard
- 39:13Speaker 2: rushers there's ever been in the NFL for an undrafted player.
- 39:18Speaker 2: I don't I don't know. I'm it might have happened,
- 39:20Speaker 2: but I have not seen that before. And you know,
- 39:23Speaker 2: he's ready. I know he said Cowboys better buckle up,
- 39:26Speaker 2: and you know, I don't know if he's talking smack.
- 39:28Speaker 2: I mean, he's kind of getting himself ready to go.
- 39:30Speaker 2: But is he the starter?
- 39:32Speaker 5: You know?
- 39:32Speaker 2: I mean like Juba Hubbard I believe was the running
- 39:34Speaker 2: back there and he and he filled in for him,
- 39:37Speaker 2: and the Dolphins have not been great against the runs,
- 39:39Speaker 2: so that that is, you know, they took advantage of that.
- 39:43Speaker 2: That's gonna be a huge matchup though. But yeah, very
- 39:46Speaker 2: ironic that the Cowboys face the Panthers next. Javonte Williams
- 39:50Speaker 2: running running great, and then Rico o'dweill obviously coming off
- 39:53Speaker 2: of two hundred yard games. So that's gonna probably be
- 39:56Speaker 2: the storyline of the game going into this one next week.
- 40:00Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Chris in Saratoga Springs, New York.
- 40:04Speaker 6: Chris's had a good week and often had a good weekend.
- 40:09Speaker 6: Took those eleven and twelve year old boys to their
- 40:11Speaker 6: first game.
- 40:12Speaker 11: Some Cowboys beat the Jets.
- 40:14Speaker 6: My voice was a little horse because you know what
- 40:16Speaker 6: I mean, yelling at the stadium. They had a fantastic time.
- 40:21Speaker 2: All Right, that's awesome, glad they Yeah, Yeah, that's that's
- 40:25Speaker 2: a that's a cool experience, especially a fun game like
- 40:29Speaker 2: that where a lot of big plays were made all
- 40:31Speaker 2: over the place.
- 40:33Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 40:34Speaker 6: I was telling, uh, Chris, Chris when he answered the
- 40:36Speaker 6: call that at the end of the game, Trevon Diggs
- 40:39Speaker 6: come on the sidelin slap in everybody's hand. My one
- 40:41Speaker 6: boy like squeezed his way down in the front row
- 40:44Speaker 6: and had his hand out and he got his hand
- 40:46Speaker 6: slap by Trayvon Diggs. And I've never seen the kids
- 40:48Speaker 6: smile so much in his life. It was outstanding.
- 40:50Speaker 2: That's awesome, and yeah, there's nothing like it. And I
- 40:53Speaker 2: could remember, like I remember that experience for me. I
- 40:58Speaker 2: was six and I remember Tony door Set giving me
- 41:01Speaker 2: that that okay with the three like okay, I was
- 41:04Speaker 2: yelling at him and he gave me that like okay
- 41:07Speaker 2: sign or what's whatever? And I'll never forget that. And
- 41:10Speaker 2: you know, I was six years old, so that was cool.
- 41:14Speaker 15: Yeah.
- 41:15Speaker 6: I just want to give a shout out to my
- 41:16Speaker 6: boy Finoy stepping up big time yesterday.
- 41:21Speaker 2: Man that I know, I'm not supposed to say this.
- 41:25Speaker 2: I mean, because it was a different game and all that.
- 41:28Speaker 2: If he would have scored a touchdown or two. I mean,
- 41:31Speaker 2: it had Miles Austin vibes to it, it really did.
- 41:34Speaker 2: I mean, like I guess they both were nineteen, I guess,
- 41:37Speaker 2: but uh, it's just the way he took advantage of
- 41:42Speaker 2: the opportunity and broke tackles and just played physical with
- 41:46Speaker 2: speed that you know, that was just that. I know
- 41:49Speaker 2: he didn't score. It's not the same breakout thing, but
- 41:52Speaker 2: but very similar to the point where he had a
- 41:55Speaker 2: great game. And now you have to wonder, hm, like
- 41:59Speaker 2: he he's gonna be playing more. I mean, he has
- 42:02Speaker 2: to be playing more now, all right, I agree? One, Okay, Well,
- 42:09Speaker 2: I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the uh for
- 42:12Speaker 2: the call. Let's keep it, keep it going here, Let's
- 42:16Speaker 2: go to G in Atlanta.
- 42:18Speaker 11: G what's going on? Nick? Well, Man, I ain't nothing.
- 42:24Speaker 11: My brother ain't nothing. Man happy on this victory Monday.
- 42:29Speaker 2: First time caller. Yes sir, yes sir, we go, here
- 42:33Speaker 2: we go.
- 42:34Speaker 5: Here we go.
- 42:34Speaker 2: All Scott brings some energy. I like it.
- 42:38Speaker 11: Oh yeah, oh yeah, man, I'm pumped up.
- 42:40Speaker 16: Man.
- 42:40Speaker 11: Should be got a good win yesterday after people had
- 42:44Speaker 11: said we would go to lose. We's gonna give up
- 42:46Speaker 11: one hundred and eighty yards to to justin fields and rushing,
- 42:50Speaker 11: and you know, they pick up the lose and then
- 42:53Speaker 11: we win that It's like, well, we should have won.
- 42:55Speaker 11: I just you know, look here, I like what we're doing.
- 42:59Speaker 11: I like the a reckon that we're going in. You
- 43:03Speaker 11: I know you, you are like me.
- 43:05Speaker 7: I believe more victory.
- 43:07Speaker 11: I think last week we were supposed to lose the
- 43:09Speaker 11: Green Bay and we we showed up and played a
- 43:13Speaker 11: great game on what side of the ball. Yeah, I
- 43:17Speaker 11: think that kind of it rolled over into this game
- 43:21Speaker 11: where normally, you know, we we we will play down
- 43:25Speaker 11: to the level our competition. But I don't think we did. Man,
- 43:27Speaker 11: So I give a big shout out to to CoA. Sadi,
- 43:31Speaker 11: the offensive line, who we had four new starters in there.
- 43:35Speaker 11: That that's that's a great win. And then the defense
- 43:39Speaker 11: showed up and put pressure on them. Uh that that
- 43:42Speaker 11: that's amazing. I thought we did a great job.
- 43:44Speaker 10: And I'm taking excite of the man.
- 43:45Speaker 11: I'm excited for what we're doing.
- 43:47Speaker 2: Yeah, it was, it was, you know, it was a
- 43:51Speaker 2: really big credit. Thanks for the call. Gee, really big
- 43:55Speaker 2: credit to the coaching staff and and you know, I'm
- 43:59Speaker 2: a believer of the moral victory part and or you know,
- 44:02Speaker 2: whatever it is to keep your morale high. The interesting
- 44:05Speaker 2: thing about the tie was most of the guys say
- 44:08Speaker 2: that it felt like a loss, like a missed opportunity,
- 44:12Speaker 2: because they had chances to win that game against against
- 44:16Speaker 2: Green Bay and it felt like, you know, it felt
- 44:19Speaker 2: like the Packers had to kind of settle for the
- 44:22Speaker 2: tie when the Cowboys were really thinking they got this
- 44:26Speaker 2: to win. So when it didn't happen like that, it
- 44:28Speaker 2: was a little bit more disappointment. So whatever it is
- 44:30Speaker 2: that they took to the field this week, and maybe
- 44:32Speaker 2: the Jets were just the perfect opponent for them. Uh,
- 44:36Speaker 2: They're they're certainly reeling they've got good They've got some
- 44:39Speaker 2: good players. But you know, I, you know, we were
- 44:44Speaker 2: I'm pulling for Aaron Glenn. I mean, I have no
- 44:46Speaker 2: reason not to. You know, I like I remember him
- 44:48Speaker 2: as a player here. I liked him, and I hope
- 44:50Speaker 2: he does well. You know, he's he's a young coach.
- 44:54Speaker 2: I mean there were some times where I just I
- 44:57Speaker 2: just disagreed with a few things that he did in
- 44:59Speaker 2: the game, and you got to learn it from that.
- 45:01Speaker 2: I mean, here's another play. It's first drive of the
- 45:05Speaker 2: game and Justin Fields runs to the five yard line
- 45:08Speaker 2: on second down from the sixth five yards to the one.
- 45:11Speaker 2: It's going to be third and goal from the one.
- 45:13Speaker 2: Cowboys line up off sides, so they take the penalty,
- 45:16Speaker 2: which is half the distance to the goal. So now
- 45:18Speaker 2: it's second and three from the three, second goal from
- 45:21Speaker 2: the three instead of third and goal from the one.
- 45:25Speaker 2: And then Solomon Thomas makes a huge play tackle for loss.
- 45:28Speaker 2: Now it's third and six. They don't get the third down.
- 45:30Speaker 2: They kick a field goal as big as Justin Field
- 45:34Speaker 2: is the ball at the one, Breise Hall or him
- 45:38Speaker 2: two times. I don't think the Cowboys are stopping that.
- 45:41Speaker 2: I think that's a touchdown. I get it's third down,
- 45:43Speaker 2: third down from the one, but the way that the
- 45:45Speaker 2: Toasch pushes and we saw justin field to do it
- 45:48Speaker 2: later on and they didn't stop him. So I thought
- 45:51Speaker 2: that was a missed opportunity for the Jets. I think
- 45:53Speaker 2: they made a mistake with that call, thinking well, I
- 45:56Speaker 2: got three downs for three yards. I don't know, you know,
- 46:01Speaker 2: if that was the case, then they would go for
- 46:03Speaker 2: two all the time, if it was so easy to
- 46:05Speaker 2: score from there. I think scoring from the one on
- 46:08Speaker 2: two plays was the smarter play. We set it up
- 46:11Speaker 2: in the press box at the time. It turned out
- 46:13Speaker 2: to be a tough one for them. All right, let's
- 46:15Speaker 2: go to Dylan in Northport, Florida. He will be our
- 46:17Speaker 2: last caller.
- 46:19Speaker 6: Heynik.
- 46:19Speaker 20: I'll go quick here, man, you gotta get out of
- 46:21Speaker 20: there so super fast. I'm calling Clayton, Adams, Connor, Riley,
- 46:26Speaker 20: and Schottenheimer. They're the mcguiver staff because the offensive line
- 46:30Speaker 20: is being called together by glue and duct tape and
- 46:32Speaker 20: they're still dominating getting it done. So that's that's just
- 46:35Speaker 20: a drastic change from seasons past where injuries derailed everything.
- 46:39Speaker 20: Awesome to see Dak's new nickname. I'm calling him twenty
- 46:41Speaker 20: twenty because he's just seeing everything on the field.
- 46:44Speaker 2: No, no, no, no emotion, no no, he says, no to that.
- 46:48Speaker 2: Please don't say anything twenty twenty with him. It's the
- 46:50Speaker 2: worst year, he says, because of the injuries. Somebody asked
- 46:53Speaker 2: him and he was like no, no, no, no.
- 46:56Speaker 20: So okay, I'll call him Vision after the Superhero.
- 46:59Speaker 9: Then let's something.
- 47:01Speaker 2: Else because he has he doesn't want anything to do
- 47:03Speaker 2: with twenty twenty.
- 47:04Speaker 20: I didn't even think of that. Yeah, hysterical. And then
- 47:07Speaker 20: this real quick man Schamar James did. I said, last
- 47:09Speaker 20: back calls, and I said, we got to get playmakers
- 47:11Speaker 20: out there, guys that can fly around. You have fifteen
- 47:13Speaker 20: tackles and it's awesome seer linebackers tackling after the catch.
- 47:16Speaker 20: That was a huge difference in this game.
- 47:17Speaker 2: Yeah, they did, they did tackle. Well, you know you're
- 47:20Speaker 2: right about that, all right, Dylan, thanks for the call.
- 47:24Speaker 2: Dak is seeing it really well. I mean the offense
- 47:27Speaker 2: of the coaches are calling the plays where you know
- 47:31Speaker 2: the ball can get out quickly. I still I think
- 47:34Speaker 2: I think it all stims from are just a running game,
- 47:37Speaker 2: which gives them balance that's what they have. They have
- 47:39Speaker 2: balance and and I know that that's one of the
- 47:42Speaker 2: things that Schottenheimer wanted to do with when you know,
- 47:45Speaker 2: designing the offense was these looks look like runs and passes.
- 47:50Speaker 2: And I think that's one of the criticism that we
- 47:52Speaker 2: heard from McCarthy's offense was that, you know, when it
- 47:56Speaker 2: was a pass, it looked like a pass. Was a run,
- 47:57Speaker 2: it looked like a run. And that's something that that
- 47:59Speaker 2: I think we're seeing a lot more of that that
- 48:02Speaker 2: it's it's just tougher to disguise, and you can do
- 48:05Speaker 2: that when you play action and you run. So you know,
- 48:09Speaker 2: great call, I mean a great, great day of calls,
- 48:11Speaker 2: you guys. Fourteen calls is a lot, at least three
- 48:15Speaker 2: maybe four. Mentioning the offensive coordinator, Clayton's Adams, you know,
- 48:19Speaker 2: really big moment for him because they played the type
- 48:22Speaker 2: of game that that he wanted to play. Be physical,
- 48:26Speaker 2: run the football. When it's time to take your shot,
- 48:29Speaker 2: take your shot. And it all worked and they you know,
- 48:32Speaker 2: they beat a struggling team, but they did what they're
- 48:35Speaker 2: supposed to do in a game like that and dominate,
- 48:37Speaker 2: and they did. And now they'll go to Carolina who
- 48:40Speaker 2: looks like a better team than they've you know, seen
- 48:43Speaker 2: before up in Carolina. But you know, we'll see, we'll
- 48:46Speaker 2: see what happens. Should be a lot of fun. But
- 48:48Speaker 2: we'll talk about it tomorrow on Cowboys Storyline for Chris
- 48:50Speaker 2: Beam Nick eaven See then.
