• 1:06
  Speaker 1: let's do it A A A eight five five to
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: two nine seven. We'll start in Coco Beach, Florida. We

  Speaker 6: What's up?
• 1:14
  Speaker 7: What's up?
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: Nick? Hash your game? Many?
• 1:16
  Speaker 8: Good?
• 1:16
  Speaker 9: Oh good?
• 1:18
  Speaker 8: Yeah?
• 1:19
  Speaker 10: I agree. I didn't call it Friday because I was
• 1:21
  Speaker 10: kind of pissed off about the game. I thought we
• 1:23
  Speaker 10: had it good then. I kind of thought about it
• 1:26
  Speaker 10: over the weekend and I was like, you know, you know,
• 1:29
  Speaker 10: we we just went up with the chance then. And
• 1:31
  Speaker 10: know Michael Parsons and are defensive slopped in the beginning,
• 1:34
  Speaker 10: But Dan, we we played a hell of a game.
• 1:36
  Speaker 11: So you know that.
• 1:38
  Speaker 10: Homer in me comes out again because we did play
• 1:40
  Speaker 10: really well. And man, we missed a couple of baths,
• 1:43
  Speaker 10: a couple of drops, missed Ferguson in the cornered end zone. Yeah,
• 1:48
  Speaker 10: miss CD a couple of times is.
• 1:50
  Speaker 7: What it is, though.
• 1:51
  Speaker 10: But man, I thought we looked solid. Our O line
• 1:54
  Speaker 10: looked better than I expected. I mean, think about what
• 1:58
  Speaker 10: we were saying three months ago about Tyler guy. We
• 2:02
  Speaker 10: were like, oh, well, we don't know what you gonna do.
• 2:04
  Speaker 10: What are we gonna do with left backhol what's going
• 2:07
  Speaker 10: on with steel? What are we what's gonna be? What
• 2:09
  Speaker 10: book are gonna be? They all looked yeah, yep, I mean,
• 2:15
  Speaker 10: so change my mind. My glasses half full again?
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Well it should be. I mean, I think I think
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: there are some positive things to look at obviously, and
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: the fact that the most positive thing that I heard
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: you say was nothing about that rant in the last
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: ten seconds. It was when you said you were pissed
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: off on Friday because you had them. That to me,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: and that's what I wrote in my column. You know what,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: this one hurts, and it's that's a good thing. It's
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: a good thing because you know, you could have won
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: this game, and you should have won this game. That
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: to me is higher expectations than I think a lot
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: of people had going into Philly Week one.
• 2:51
  Speaker 10: So I had fifteen points with my friend of mine
• 2:55
  Speaker 10: and for twenty dollars, just a little gentleman stupid bet
• 2:58
  Speaker 10: that we do every time, and I thought I was
• 3:01
  Speaker 10: gonna lose the truth man.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah wow.
• 3:04
  Speaker 10: So when it was at the end and it was
• 3:05
  Speaker 10: down by four, I was like, oh, we should have
• 3:07
  Speaker 10: won this game.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah all right, all right, thank you. You know, when
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: you look at the schedule and just just week one,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: just look at everything that you've seen, you know, you
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: don't know a whole lot about week one, because things
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: can change. Hell, things can change in the middle of
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: a game as I'm watching Baltimore and Hills highlights. But
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: looking at the schedule, being really honest about it, is
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: there anything tougher on paper than what the Cowboys have
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: already faced? I mean they faced at Philly on the road,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: first game of the season. Ceremony dropped, you know, raised
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: the banner, all that stuff. First game of the year
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: at Philly. After that, does any other game? I mean,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Packers at home. Packers look pretty damn good. You know
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: that was not gonna lie about that. But we haven't
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: seen them on the road just yet. Of course, not
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: that they lose at at and T Stadium, but so
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: that anyways, that's debatable there on Sunday Night Football. But
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: all these other games that you were, like, all these
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: tough games at the Lions, I mean, okay, Chiefs on Thanksgiving,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: both those teams lost. I think they're gonna be fine.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: But you know, at Denver, at the Jets, at the Bears,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Chargers at home, I mean, at Washington, I mean, nothing
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: looks tougher than what you just faced. Not to say
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: that you won't, you know, see the Cowboys lose at
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: home to somebody that they shouldn't, then that happens every year.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: But I'm just going off of one game, and it's
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: only one week into the season and all that, but
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: you're looking at the schedule, you know, I don't think
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: you think as badly about anything, knowing how they played
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: that game and all that, but none of that matters
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: if you don't go out and beat the Giants. So
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: let's just kind of squash that right there. All right,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Chuck the Bridge City, Texas. What's up, man, Nick?
• 5:02
  Speaker 12: What's up man?
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: How are you good?
• 5:06
  Speaker 12: I didn't get the call last week. I tried to
• 5:09
  Speaker 12: on the day after the game, But I think they
• 5:13
  Speaker 12: played great. I was excited to see fire in them.
• 5:17
  Speaker 12: I feel like they were pumped up. I would like
• 5:20
  Speaker 12: to see I know, you got to target your best
• 5:23
  Speaker 12: player sht. But I would have liked to see some
• 5:26
  Speaker 12: targets kind of spread out.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 5:30
  Speaker 12: Granted, if you would have made those catches, they'd be
• 5:32
  Speaker 12: saying something else.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, wow.
• 5:36
  Speaker 12: But you know, this year, it kind of reminds me
• 5:39
  Speaker 12: of I remember in twenty fourteen, they've just gotten off
• 5:41
  Speaker 12: going eight and eight, I think, three years in a row.
• 5:44
  Speaker 12: All of a sudden, they just surprised us all and
• 5:47
  Speaker 12: had that awesome year. And I think we could see
• 5:50
  Speaker 12: something like that happen this year. What do you think
• 5:51
  Speaker 12: about that.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, you know, it's it's easy to say that,
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: you know, like that that could happen. You see that
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: in twenty fourteen Sawden was it twenty one, I guess
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: when they lost to the to the Bucks and then
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: won five or six in a row. But you know,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: you have to you have to win the games. It's
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: easier to say that now, you know, let let's let's
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: let a couple of these games pile up, you know,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: I mean at at the Giants, you know, to the
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: division game. We'll see what happens at the Bears and
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: then the Packers. So Stackinson wins together is not going
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: to be easy. It's just that, you know, we'll we'll
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: see how they how they perform here. But I think
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: all what you're saying is is that it looks promising
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: even in defeat. It looked promising, uh, based off our expectations,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: which maybe our expectations need to be raised a little bit.
• 6:43
  Speaker 12: Yeah, I fot I'm saying pretty.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Much right, Well, thanks for the call. I'll talk about
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: see Pickens as well. Yeah. That let's that's how it.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: That's how it goes. What one game this, what what
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: about Pickens? And then Pickens will get some more targets next.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's how this thing goes. And then
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: he'll have a big game and then maybe Turpin will
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: have one touch and you know what about Turpin. I mean,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: there'll be a time where Ferguson hasn't got a you know,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: a target and and it didn't get many you know,
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: ballst on his way in the game, and then we'll
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: be on here. So that's that's probably a good thing
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: as well. If you're winning. Uh, if you're not winning,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: then then you could make the case that you know, yes,
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: it wasn't enough for Pickens, it wasn't enough for whoever.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: But you know that, I think we all know what
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: happened in the game. I mean they didn't over target
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: CD and the ball was in his hands four times
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: and he didn't catch it. And he had I think
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: seven catches on thirteen targets. I'm not sure about some
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: of the others, but I know there were four for
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: sure that that were there. One of those was the
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: last long deep ball you can say that was you know,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: he I don't call it a drop, but I but
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: it was a catchuple pass a guy diving forward and
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: you know, on fourth down with the game on the line.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: That's catchable. You know, I thought Dak put it there,
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: and he put it there on some other plays as well.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: And I think we've all seen the some of the
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: footage on CD here in the jugs machine. We saw
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: him on Friday out here. There wasn't anyone here, no
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: players on the on the field. He was out here
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: on the jukes machine. That's that's what you want, right,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: I mean that, that's it. It's all you can ask for
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: a guy that's not his you know, mo o, we
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: know that, you know, one thing that's not getting put
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: mentioned here. And again I'm not trying to throw out excuses,
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: but it was funny how this never gets brought up.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: But those drops were mostly in the second half, or
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: all of them actually were in the second half. Maybe
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: there was one early on in the game in the
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: second quarter, but for the most part, those drops in
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: the second half and after the delay, and the delay,
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: of course is a weather delay. And so you know,
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: I didn't see a lot of other people dropping passes,
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: but I didn't see a lot of other people catching
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: the ball either, you know, I mean, like who else
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: was catching the football out there? So that that might
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: be something to do with it. You know, it's not
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: like the Eagles guys were catching every everything in the
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: second half. I mean every The whole offense kind of
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: shut down. Hasn't really been talked about. Obviously, the field
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: was well, I mean if the ball's wet, but it
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: would be one thing if if you know, other people
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: were making plays. But really the whole offense kind of
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: went down. So with that, and knowing what CD is
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: and and then the type of player and that he's been,
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: I don't think this is something to be really worried
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: about moving forward. All right, let's go to Jeremy.
• 9:42
  Speaker 7: He's in d C.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: Jeremy, what's up.
• 9:46
  Speaker 9: How I'm good? You been saying, out of trouble.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Man, working on that?
• 9:52
  Speaker 8: Yeah, how about you?
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: You heard anybody?
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: Oh?
• 10:00
  Speaker 9: No, man, no, man, I've been busy, man, been busy.
• 10:04
  Speaker 9: So like most of the time when when you on,
• 10:06
  Speaker 9: I'll be at work, so I'll be trying to call
• 10:09
  Speaker 9: in between while I'm doing like my jobs or whatever.
• 10:12
  Speaker 9: But most of the time.
• 10:13
  Speaker 11: When I get off off day, yeah, I'm off on Monday.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: All right, what'd you think, man? What do you think
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: of the game? What's you think moving forward.
• 10:24
  Speaker 9: So I think, man, the CD Lamborghini, we're gonna bounce back.
• 10:27
  Speaker 9: We don't have to worry about that. You know, that's
• 10:31
  Speaker 9: gonna be a one off, you know, So everybody just
• 10:34
  Speaker 9: calmed down. CD Lamborghini is gonna be okay. Change Yeah, Nea,
• 10:40
  Speaker 9: it all change, you know what I'm saying. Got gotta
• 10:43
  Speaker 9: check the break caliber and stuff. You know, I was
• 10:48
  Speaker 9: watching the game again and I was noticing, like when
• 10:52
  Speaker 9: the defensive tackles is doing those twist stunts, A lot
• 10:56
  Speaker 9: of the times when they was doing them, they were
• 10:58
  Speaker 9: either knocking theirselfs out of play or knocking the defense
• 11:01
  Speaker 9: knocking the defensive ends out of the plate. Is there, like,
• 11:05
  Speaker 9: is the something like with the person that's twisting is
• 11:09
  Speaker 9: doing something wrong or is it the defensive end that's
• 11:12
  Speaker 9: doing something wrong? Because I was noticing that a.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: Lot like in that game, look like it was their
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: first game together. And you know that and that that
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: is one of those things where where I can see
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: an advantage to playing. Let these guys play something preseason.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: That part right there. I don't know if it's worth
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: you know, the risk of an injury, but it is
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: going out there and playing where it's not practice and actually,
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: you know, okay, when I go here and rush here
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: and and yeah, the guys running you know, into each
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: other in the same lanes and all that. But it
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: felt like it got better in the second half. The
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: defense kind of both sides of you know, defense played
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: way better in the second half. So you know, I
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: don't again, that's one of those things, just like the
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: dry I mean, one of those things I don't believe
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: will be a big problem moving forward. I thought the
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: defense started to play better, that they they had to
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: trick it up. You know, it wasn't working in the
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: first half, and we started to see some different things,
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: some different Bloetz packages because they were not getting home.
• 12:18
  Speaker 9: A play that something else that I noticed on the
• 12:21
  Speaker 9: offensive side before the before man Beghini started dropping them
• 12:26
  Speaker 9: like it was the run play with I'm not sure
• 12:30
  Speaker 9: if it was the defensive end or the defensive tackle.
• 12:33
  Speaker 9: He split like right between Steel and Booker. It looked
• 12:37
  Speaker 9: like they didn't know like who was supposed to pick
• 12:39
  Speaker 9: him up, you know what I'm saying. So I think
• 12:42
  Speaker 9: that was like a little communication problem too. And I
• 12:45
  Speaker 9: feel like if that play right there, would it held
• 12:48
  Speaker 9: up something they probably would have got like a good
• 12:50
  Speaker 9: five maybe six yards out of that run play right there,
• 12:53
  Speaker 9: and it would have been a different situation on third down.
• 12:56
  Speaker 9: But yeah, I ain't really had much nick Man, I
• 12:59
  Speaker 9: just wanted to, which you know has been a while.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: Man, all right, cool, nobody, all right, I won't I
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: can't hurt anybody, all right, thanks man, Thanks for the call.
• 13:10
  Speaker 9: I feel too, man, look cast the shot.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: I appreciate it. Thank you. Yeah, Jacket almost got me
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: in a fight though, on the elevator on the way back,
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: but that's a that's for another story. You know, I
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: don't I don't remember that play he was talking about
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: with the run and those those two guys not you know,
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: not picking it up. It feels like Thursday night. I mean,
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: it feels like that was several days ago. So I
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: haven't really I didn't even go back and watch it
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: like I normally do. It's been kind of a crazy weekend.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: I just said, I just kind of left it at that.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: I probably will check some of the plays as well,
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: but you know, and and and probably fine moments like
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: that and go man. You know, I mean at the time,
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: I remember thinking they should have this game. But I'll
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: probably go back and watch it and it'll be really
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: clear that hey, you know, they was there for the taking.
• 14:06
  Speaker 12: And so.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: Part part of that is good because it's like, you know,
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: you face a good football team and you had a
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: chance to win on the road. But the other part
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: is that you didn't win. You didn't do those things,
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: and we've seen that before then finding ways to lose games.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: So if that's a trend, then obviously that's not going
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: to be fine. You know, if you're going to play
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: to the level of your competition too, that you'll be
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: sitting there at eight and eight, eight nine, whatever that is.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: So we've seen them play play up there and play
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: the Eagles on the road. Let's let's not be the
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: team that that also struggles with the Giants at home
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: and struggles with you know, the Panthers and jetsmen and
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: stuff like that. So you know what we'll see. It's
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: still early. We're still trying to figure out what this
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: team is. James in New Jersey, do it hey man?
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: A couple of states A question. The lineback could look
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: a little slow, especially going downhill of the fifty nine.
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: He kind of waiting for something to happen, like you're
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: waiting before he went downhill and get into those gaps
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: against the running fus. Also on the flat, there's always
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: somebody missing in the flat. I know what that's about.
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: And uh, as far as the linebacks, I mean the
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: defensive enditu concern, it's seem like they were all trying
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: to play hero ball, trying to make it for Mica
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: going inside instead of outside, trying to keep that kid
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: in the of the pocket, you know, cheat him in there,
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: and so he wouldn't you know, run over the prison.
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: He's playing yard your yard ball. But my main question
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: is I was looking at Cleveland to lose, because I'm
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: hoping they lose about maybe your first six games. And
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: since the trade divide is on November fourth, whether we
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: were considered trading for Miles Garrett for a couple of
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: those picks and maybe uh discussive you know, where him
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: can be negotiating his contract to at least keep that
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: as cap fairly as possible, you know. So I was wondering,
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: you know, whether that would be a possibility, and you've
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: been looking to get them all Garrett for a couple
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: of picks.
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, James, we appreciate the call. You guys
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: kind of know. I mean when it comes to players
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: on other teams, not something that I can get can
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: really discuss here. Now I can talk about trades and
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: and just what they could use those picks for and
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: what they would need. You know, I still think a
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: lot of times what the trade deadline is is it's
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: not just to see who's out there, but it's also
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: for people to realize kind of what they've got, what
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: they have, what they need, what their season is going
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: to look like. Are they going to be buyers, are
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: they going to be sellers? Are they going to just
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: be uh, do nothing at all? So it's still early
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: a little bit to kind of see that. You know,
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: I'm not calling Donovan Azaraku the next Dwaar now, would
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: never do that. My point is is that Deware Hall
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: of Fame pass rusher midway through his rookie year was
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: it was not working out. It was not what they thought,
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: They weren't getting exactly what they thought. It wasn't until
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: late in the season he had three sacks in Carolina,
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: took over that game, they won that one. He finished
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: with eight. I think he had four like for most
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: of the season until that last two games of the season,
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: and then his career kind of took off. So my
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: point is is that it's gonna take a little bit
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: to see some of these pass rushers, especially as a ROKU,
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: to say, hey, you know he's got something here, because
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: he does. Look, it looks a little light. He's playing light.
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: He's going to have to use that to his advantage
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: and he'll he'll figure it out. As for the linebackers
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: looking slow, yeah, I mean, again, I hate to keep
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: saying this one game, but it's one game against a
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: dynamic offense that is very tough to prepare for because
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: you can't They just have so many weapons and you
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: you're always looking slow. You know, Michael looked slow. He
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: didn't look mikel never played well really against the Eagles.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: I mean, he might have had a sack or two,
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: but he didn't play his best football. He didn't ever
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: wreck games against the Eagles. They they make it very,
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: very challenging for those linebackers because you got to keep
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: your eyes on the quarterback, you got to keep your
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: eye on the tight end. He caught seven passes in
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: the game, and you know, just just over the middle.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: Of course, Barkley's Barkley, So there's a lot there, and
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: and I don't think playing the Eagles is what it's
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: going to put any linebacker in the Pro Bowl. I
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: just think it's it's it's always a challenge. I'm not
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: trying to get people pass. I'm just saying it's one game.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: Let's let's see what happens. I think the linebackers. Typically
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: linebackers played well in Eberflus's scheme, and I think the
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: linebackers will be fine. Uh, let's go to Allen a,
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: clear Water, Florida.
• 19:01
  Speaker 5: Hey, good morning, Nick. I'd be feeling a lot better
• 19:07
  Speaker 5: if they won the game last ye. So I was
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: trying to get through last week, and you know, I
• 19:14
  Speaker 5: listened every day. It's very hard for me. I'm going
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: to try to run through a bunch of points that
• 19:20
  Speaker 5: I'd love to hear your input on, whichever you choose
• 19:22
  Speaker 5: to respond to. This is the only place I can
• 19:25
  Speaker 5: talk about it. But you know, all the positives, YadA, YadA, yeah, great, Yeah,
• 19:30
  Speaker 5: I agree, great stuff, especially the secondary, a lot of
• 19:32
  Speaker 5: good stuff. But I left that game so disgusted. I
• 19:37
  Speaker 5: haven't felt that disgusted about a cowboy loss in ages.
• 19:41
  Speaker 5: And I just want to tell you why I feel
• 19:43
  Speaker 5: that way. And see if you understand these points, and
• 19:45
  Speaker 5: I'm going to make the first one is well, it
• 19:50
  Speaker 5: was a huge game. It was the first game of
• 19:52
  Speaker 5: the season. It's one game we had a chance to
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: take it from Philly and start the season right. And
• 19:57
  Speaker 5: once again we found a way to lose a game
• 20:00
  Speaker 5: in a big game. In big moments, our guys didn't
• 20:03
  Speaker 5: come through. It's always somebody different. It's a penalty here,
• 20:07
  Speaker 5: it's a drop ball. At the end of the day,
• 20:10
  Speaker 5: we have become one of those teams that just doesn't
• 20:13
  Speaker 5: get it done in big moments. Change coaching, change, personnel,
• 20:17
  Speaker 5: change scheme has the same thing. So that's the number
• 20:22
  Speaker 5: one takeaway is we didn't find a way to We find.
• 20:24
  Speaker 12: Ways to lose games.
• 20:25
  Speaker 5: And that is just you know, it's a whole bunch
• 20:28
  Speaker 5: of combination of things. But point by point, what I
• 20:32
  Speaker 5: was really disappointed in was number one, when Jalen Hurts
• 20:36
  Speaker 5: was running on us in the first quarter, second quarter, Like,
• 20:40
  Speaker 5: did you not prepare for Jalen Hurts running the ball?
• 20:43
  Speaker 5: You did a great job here and there, How were
• 20:46
  Speaker 5: you not prepared to take that out of the game.
• 20:49
  Speaker 5: So that was the first problem. But on the offensive
• 20:52
  Speaker 5: side of the ball. I was so disappointed in two
• 20:58
  Speaker 5: major things. One, I was waiting for this dynamic offense.
• 21:01
  Speaker 5: And if what they were hiding during preseason by playing
• 21:04
  Speaker 5: Vanilla was all our formation changes, I would have rather
• 21:08
  Speaker 5: they play our starters because we still only got the
• 21:11
  Speaker 5: ball to Turpin three times. We ran the ball great,
• 21:15
  Speaker 5: Yes there was to me watching as a fan, I
• 21:19
  Speaker 5: was waiting for something more dynamic, more innovative, creative, and
• 21:24
  Speaker 5: maybe that'll happen moving on in the season. But in
• 21:27
  Speaker 5: that game, kept waiting for Urpin, especially to get more touches.
• 21:30
  Speaker 5: Didn't happen. But my real problem is I love Dak
• 21:36
  Speaker 5: Prescott as a person. As a player, heart skill, He's
• 21:41
  Speaker 5: got enough, but he continues, in my opinion, to make
• 21:44
  Speaker 5: more decisions in key moments. And what nobody is talking
• 21:49
  Speaker 5: about is on the fourth I think it was two.
• 21:51
  Speaker 5: I think it was fourth and two, where there was
• 21:54
  Speaker 5: a minute and a half left on the clock. You
• 21:57
  Speaker 5: got to tell me there's somebody underneath. You have to
• 21:59
  Speaker 5: have a couple of options underneath to go at the
• 22:02
  Speaker 5: ball to keep a first down. It's a high percentage throw,
• 22:06
  Speaker 5: a low percentage throw when you throw it, even though
• 22:08
  Speaker 5: it's the CD you got to make a different choice.
• 22:11
  Speaker 5: And the second thing that I think he did do
• 22:13
  Speaker 5: out that game is on the tight end when he
• 22:17
  Speaker 5: was trying to hit Ferguson or the other guy the
• 22:21
  Speaker 5: way I remember it, they were double covered like every time.
• 22:25
  Speaker 5: So again, in my mind, he's forcing the ball to
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: a receiver. If there's two guys on Ferguson, because he
• 22:32
  Speaker 5: got popped a number of times, there's got to be
• 22:36
  Speaker 5: somebody else that's open. And that is still a key
• 22:39
  Speaker 5: problem that I have if we look at his history
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: with the Cowboys, He's won some games on the last drive,
• 22:47
  Speaker 5: but I think there's a lot more where he could
• 22:49
  Speaker 5: have won the games where he just didn't get the
• 22:51
  Speaker 5: ball out fast enough, he took a sack, he didn't
• 22:54
  Speaker 5: hit the right guy something. So my key's my keys,
• 22:58
  Speaker 5: and i'd love to if you, you know, if you'd
• 23:00
  Speaker 5: like to respond to any of them, i'd appreciate your thoughts.
• 23:04
  Speaker 5: That's that's that's where I'm coming from today.
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: Thanks Alan, thanks for the call. I mean there's a
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: lot there they do, you know, finding ways to lose games.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: I mean that that is something that that happens when
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: you lose games. I mean they lost ten last year,
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: so and some of them were close. And when they
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: when you lose a close game, that's what you say.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: They find a way to lose a close game. And
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: this team over the last three or four years has
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: has won a lot more games, so they find ways
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: to win games. So that that's why I'm like, what
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: what do you what are you saying on this team?
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: Is it the last is it this this year? Is
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: it last two years? Is it the last four years?
• 23:49
  Speaker 12: You know?
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: I mean, because they've won a lot more games then
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: they've lost. So I don't know if I'm just going
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: to say that. I just think, when you when there's
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: a close game and you didn't win, you could and
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: then there's a close game and you won, you you
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: could have lost and you you didn't. So that's that's
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: the way I just take that. It's very basic. But
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, so I wouldn't I wouldn't call anything a
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: trend just yet. Offensively, it did, it did look good
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: in the first half, There's no doubt. But then in
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: the second half they kind of shut down the Eagles,
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: you know, shut down. I mean, both teams played a
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: lot better on defense. But I did like, I like
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: the play calling style from Shody on being aggressive throwing
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: the ball down the field when when we've looked at
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: that they played for field goals, I thought that they
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: were a lot more aggressive there. So I'm I'm anxious
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: to see more of that. And and congratulations Allen. I
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: mean you're the first person that I've heard that really
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: criticized Dak after that game. I thought Dak played a
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: great game. Now Dak isn't you know, He's had moments, good, moments, bad, whatever.
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: But I don't fault really him for anything that I
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: saw in that game. It wasn't like there was a
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: ton of time. He didn't get sacked though, you know,
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: he got the ball out quick. You know this whole
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: like there could have been someone else. Well well maybe,
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: but you know they're looking for man to man coverage
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: and you know, for his best player and he still
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: has confidence of Ceedee Lamb and it's fourth down and
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: he threw it. You know, I mean, no one. I
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: mean I've heard the same thing. You know, Dez Des
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: caught it play in Green Bay. Well, I mean that
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: was fourth down too, and he went up one on
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: one with Des. I mean, he had Beasley over the middle.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: Maybe he should have done that. But you know these
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: guys are that's that's the way they they're wired to
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: find the ball, you know, their best guy, and he
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: put it exactly where it needs to be. So I
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: don't have a fault really with Dak for that game.
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: I thought Dak played played a really good football game.
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: And you know they they came up short. But but
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: you know the one thing that Dak doesn't have, He's
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: not like Hurts and and that running, that running element there,
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: and and you know, I wouldn't say the Cowboys weren't
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: prepared for it. I would say that that you could
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: put a spy on him. There are guys that were
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: there to watch him. Doesn't mean you're gonna make the tackle,
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean That teams keat on Barry
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: Sanders for a long time. They keet on him at
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: Smith for a long time. He's still made plays, you know,
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: I mean they sometimes you can just get out athleted.
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: And that's the thing that's what makes Jalen Hurts are
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: really really good players because he is built like Saquon Barkley,
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: and he's throwing the ball a lot better than him,
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: and so it's just a it's a tough matchup, especially
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: when you have Barkley also next to you. It's gonna
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: break here on Cowboys storyline. I'll be right back after this.

  Speaker 1: as possible. And I understand people have points to make
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: and all that. Let's try to go pretty quickly if
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: we can Davian and Illinois iss next he's been holding.
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: So Davian, what's up, man.
• 28:57
  Speaker 7: What's going on?
• 28:58
  Speaker 15: Big doll? You doing happening? I'm doing well, man.
• 29:04
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 29:04
  Speaker 15: I heard the tell end of that call and got lucky.
• 29:07
  Speaker 15: This ain't the Twitter space, so we will have some
• 29:10
  Speaker 15: Pico going back and forth pretty good, because I don't
• 29:13
  Speaker 15: know how anybody can criticize that after after that game.
• 29:16
  Speaker 15: That's that's crazy.
• 29:17
  Speaker 7: I kind of you.
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: I feel like A needs to needs to go to
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: the Twitter spaces because he said, you know, I don't
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: have anybody to talk to you like that. That's where
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: you need to go. You need to get on the
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: community at Twitter and get in there and talk. You
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: guys do at least once a week.
• 29:31
  Speaker 15: Right, Yeah, we do it Thursdays at eight o'clock Central,
• 29:37
  Speaker 15: ten o'clock Central Central. But uh yeah, man, I'm excited.
• 29:42
  Speaker 15: I think, uh, I think this week is gonna be
• 29:45
  Speaker 15: a good week for us. I think I saw that
• 29:48
  Speaker 15: that we were we were the top five of pressure rate,
• 29:51
  Speaker 15: and I saw the Giants old line looking pretty pretty suspect.
• 29:54
  Speaker 15: So I think it's about that time for us to
• 29:56
  Speaker 15: eat to get some sacks this week, just in case
• 30:01
  Speaker 15: I don't get a call in later on the week.
• 30:03
  Speaker 15: I think my score prediction between the seventeen Cowboys, I
• 30:07
  Speaker 15: think we're gonna gon do pretty well. I know Dak
• 30:10
  Speaker 15: gonna come out ready to go. See he's gonna be CD.
• 30:12
  Speaker 15: He gonna probably get another hundred. I think picklets probably
• 30:15
  Speaker 15: get a hundred too.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: Much different game. Just to make sure I heard you right,
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: twenty seven to ten or twenty to seventeen.
• 30:23
  Speaker 15: Twenty seven to ten.
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: Got it? Got it? Okay, I'll take that.
• 30:28
  Speaker 15: We I think we take either one right now, anyone.
• 30:31
  Speaker 15: I just want to dub either way. But I think
• 30:33
  Speaker 15: I think we own the Giants pretty much, so I
• 30:36
  Speaker 15: think we should be to do pretty well against them.
• 30:38
  Speaker 15: It should be pretty I mean it's gonna be Any
• 30:40
  Speaker 15: game is tough, but we do pretty well against the
• 30:43
  Speaker 15: Shi no matter what we do.
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: You know, usually you see Dak play well there and
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: you know it's it's a big game. I'll talk about
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: that when you're off the area. Got any other questions now?
• 30:56
  Speaker 15: I know you want to be quick because the last guy,
• 30:58
  Speaker 15: But like I said, if the guy want to come
• 30:59
  Speaker 15: on on the Twitter spaces and get with us, you
• 31:02
  Speaker 15: know we got the captain and all the captains bey on.
• 31:05
  Speaker 15: So yeah, you want to bring that DAC take over there?
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: All right, all right, cool, all right, David, thanks thanks
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: for the call. And again, let me let me clarify here.
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: I love people call in and then and throwing their opinions.
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: They got nothing, they got no issues really with anything
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: that that that any of the callers said, especially you know,
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: I'm keep going back to Allen. There was a little
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: little wordy uh, and I just didn't agree with the
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: da part. But that, like I say all the time,
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: your your opinion is undefeated. So you know that's fine.
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: And and I think that what a lot of people
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: do is they take this game and kind of say, well,
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: you know, and just put it in with the big picture.
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: I like to take this game for what it is.
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: There there's been other moments where we haven't seen the
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: Cowboys win, and and sometimes it's been dacted and make
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: the throw and all that. This particular game, I thought
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: he played well. I thought he played well enough to
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: win the game. He had the ball in the final
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: three minutes to go, and you know, all he can
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: do is put it where he put it, and you know,
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: maybe his decision, and I have to go back and
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: watch that play. I don't only know what was there,
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: but but but my point is is I don't want
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: to discourage anybody for Colin and given their opinions, all right,
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: Chris and Saratoga Springs, New York is next.
• 32:24
  Speaker 7: Hey Nick, how are you good?
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: What's up with you?
• 32:27
  Speaker 7: Not too much. I don't know what game Allen was watching,
• 32:31
  Speaker 7: but that's not the game that I was watching. I
• 32:34
  Speaker 7: think Doc played outstanding. That's one of the better games
• 32:38
  Speaker 7: I thought he played. I agree with you one hundred percent.
• 32:42
  Speaker 7: I mean, if ceed catches one of those balls, different stories,
• 32:46
  Speaker 7: Miles Sanders doesn't put the ball on the ground, another
• 32:49
  Speaker 7: another different scenario, like what Dak miss Maybe overthrew or
• 32:53
  Speaker 7: underthrew Ferguson one time, he had what one or two
• 32:57
  Speaker 7: off throws maybe in the whole game. But I think
• 32:59
  Speaker 7: Dak played had one of his better games. It's just
• 33:02
  Speaker 7: one of those games. It comes down to one or
• 33:04
  Speaker 7: two things. And you know, like look at that Buffalo
• 33:07
  Speaker 7: game last night. If if the running back for Baltimore
• 33:10
  Speaker 7: doesn't fumble the ball, Buffalo loses. That game comes down
• 33:13
  Speaker 7: to one or two plays in a game that changed
• 33:15
  Speaker 7: the outcome of these games, and wasn't on Dak Again,
• 33:21
  Speaker 7: I thought that I'm very critical on Dak, but that
• 33:25
  Speaker 7: game he played, that's one of the better games I've
• 33:26
  Speaker 7: seen him play. So Alan, good opinion, but I think
• 33:31
  Speaker 7: you're wrong. Alan. The one question I have rewatching the
• 33:37
  Speaker 7: game one throwd to CD when he dropped that one
• 33:42
  Speaker 7: pass the other wide receivers literally right next to him.
• 33:48
  Speaker 7: I don't know if that was the wrong pattern, or
• 33:49
  Speaker 7: who ran the wrong pattern, or if they were both
• 33:51
  Speaker 7: running goes it was tober. It looked like it was
• 33:53
  Speaker 7: going to Tober. Then CD comes and tries to make
• 33:56
  Speaker 7: the play. I don't know if that was a miscommunication
• 33:58
  Speaker 7: or it was the wrong pattern run. Don't like having
• 34:00
  Speaker 7: multiple corners, you know, around the ball at the same time.
• 34:04
  Speaker 7: What were your thoughts on that album exactly?
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: It looked like it looked like the earliest Hail Mary
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: I've ever seen. Just because you're right, I mean, two
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: receivers running in the same spot means usually means three
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: defensive backs in the same spot, and that that's kind
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: of what it was. So I don't know exactly who
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: was running the wrong route there or how it got
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: to that point, but I feel like I've seen that
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: more often than we should. I think last year we
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: saw it a little bit too, So I don't i'd
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: be wrong, but to say that you know, somebody ran
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: the wrong route or you know, cut it back that way,
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: I'm not really sure. But you're right because there was
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: a guy guarding CD, and I think the guy he
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: was really looking at was the safety coming over the middle,
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: because I think on that particular play he was already
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: thinking cuts the ball and then what kind of move
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: across the middle of the field. I mean, that could
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: have been a really big play, not just catching it,
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: but if he can make one guy miss in the open.
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: I think he's trying to cut it across the field
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: and then who knows what happens after that. So obviously
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: didn't happen, but you're right that there's something off about
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: the way that play looked.
• 35:21
  Speaker 7: Right as far as the upcoming game, I got Dallas
• 35:24
  Speaker 7: winning twenty eighth to ten.
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, that's all I got. Thanks N I
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: appreciate it a theme here. Thanks Chris for the call.
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Lester in Minnesota. Lester, what's up man?
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: Hey?
• 35:38
  Speaker 11: How you doing out there?
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: Man?
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: Good?
• 35:41
  Speaker 11: You, I'm doing good. To the guy I think his
• 35:45
  Speaker 11: name was Alan that called in, all I've got to
• 35:48
  Speaker 11: say to him it was a primetime game, and you
• 35:53
  Speaker 11: gotta just follow the money. So who's ever getting the
• 35:57
  Speaker 11: good money? They gonna be featured on the primetime game.
• 36:00
  Speaker 11: For the most part, They're going to force the ball.
• 36:03
  Speaker 11: So just Alan calmed down, Just follow the money. He
• 36:07
  Speaker 11: threw it to ferguson off and then he threw it
• 36:10
  Speaker 11: to CD A lot and I know pickings had to
• 36:13
  Speaker 11: be opened a little bit. So Alan calmed down. Follow
• 36:16
  Speaker 11: the money. But that's not the point I wanted to make.
• 36:20
  Speaker 11: I think overall, they played a good game.
• 36:24
  Speaker 12: I was.
• 36:24
  Speaker 11: I wasn't pretty much impressed. I liked it. As far
• 36:30
  Speaker 11: as the spying the quarterback, I don't know who they
• 36:33
  Speaker 11: it looked like they were using Clark. And if they
• 36:36
  Speaker 11: weren't Clark, he's not. He doesn't have enough agility to
• 36:39
  Speaker 11: do it. He got enough speed, but he doesn't have
• 36:41
  Speaker 11: enough agility in future. Just just my opinion. I think
• 36:46
  Speaker 11: until Overshrowon gets back, if they want to spy, I
• 36:49
  Speaker 11: think they should use number thirty five or Murray. Okay,
• 36:53
  Speaker 11: and then I got a message for Jesse Holly. He
• 36:56
  Speaker 11: was on the other day talking about CD is the man.
• 37:00
  Speaker 11: He came up to the mic say he's the man.
• 37:02
  Speaker 11: I'm not saying he's not the man, but for that game,
• 37:05
  Speaker 11: he dropped too many passes to be that man for
• 37:08
  Speaker 11: that game, So give me right. I'm not saying he now.
• 37:11
  Speaker 11: I'm just saying that game he dropped too many passes. Jesse,
• 37:14
  Speaker 11: that's all I got, man.
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: All right, thanks, thanks for the call. And the thing
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: about it is when when a guy comes out and says,
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: I have to catch the football. I'm the reason. You
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: know we didn't win that game. Put it on me.
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: What else can he say? I mean, what else can
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: you say other than all right? Goes out the very
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: next day. I mean, you know, he's we all got
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: we all got in about five o'clock in the morning.
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: So he's out here catching passes at the drugs machine
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: with no one else there. So and he didn't put
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: that on social media, got put on social media. He's
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: not doing that for cameras. He's doing that because he's
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: trying to get better, and he understands that he's that
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: he's got, he's got to catch the football. So I
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: mean everybody knows that. Everybody knows that he's got to
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: catch it. And starting with CD Jesse Hawley, whatever you're
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: trying to say, like, yeah, everybody knows he's the man,
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: but he's got to he's got to make those plays.
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: I don't think his quarterback has lost any faith in
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: him as well. Let's go to break here on Cowboys storyline.

• 39:55
  Speaker 6: I hope everything's over there.
• 39:57
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: Good.
• 39:58
  Speaker 6: It's been a while. I haven't been ab going to
• 40:00
  Speaker 6: get through. I've been dying to call, but no, I
• 40:05
  Speaker 6: just wanted to say I think it was a good game.
• 40:07
  Speaker 6: I was actually pleasantly surprised they they played pretty well.
• 40:13
  Speaker 6: Everybody was expecting the defense uh to suck after Mike
• 40:19
  Speaker 6: cut left, but I don't know. I guess they thought
• 40:21
  Speaker 6: he was like I never saw him as that world beater.
• 40:26
  Speaker 6: I liked him. He could couldn't stop the run. So
• 40:29
  Speaker 6: I think we got we got a good deal. I
• 40:32
  Speaker 6: wish we got a guy in a second or third
• 40:34
  Speaker 6: round pick, but this.
• 40:35
  Speaker 11: Is what it is.
• 40:36
  Speaker 6: Everything's done.
• 40:37
  Speaker 12: He moved on.
• 40:38
  Speaker 6: We moved on, and I think this team is going
• 40:40
  Speaker 6: to be pretty good after watching that game if they
• 40:43
  Speaker 6: continue to get better. Now, yeah, that's what I wanted
• 40:47
  Speaker 6: to say, and I wanted to say one more thing, Nick,
• 40:50
  Speaker 6: thank you for my daddy. I use it every day.
• 40:53
  Speaker 6: It actually works. It keeps my beverage cold throughout the
• 40:56
  Speaker 6: entire day.
• 40:57
  Speaker 3: So thank you.
• 40:58
  Speaker 6: I appreciate it very much.
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: Well, you're welcome, and you know this. This segment is
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: sponsored by Yettie, so I appreciate you calling and doing that.
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: It keeps it cold or it keeps it hot, depending
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: on what you want to put in there.
• 41:09
  Speaker 12: Good stuff, all right, perfect, perfect, Thank you, Nick.
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: Thank you.
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: Ronnie a member of the All Storyline teen two years
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: in a row. So he's got a T shirt and
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: a Yettie. So I understand that it's harder and harder
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: for guys to call in. So we take everything into
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: consideration when we're making that those those selections. I say,
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: we it's really me, but I like Chris kind of
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: chime in and help on what he thinks. All right,
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: let's uh, let's keep it going here. We got Lewis Langston, Oklahoma.
• 41:43
  Speaker 3: Hey, what's going on?
• 41:45
  Speaker 5: How you doing?
• 41:46
  Speaker 6: I bet I bet you know, like you said, I've
• 41:48
  Speaker 6: been trying to get in, so I'll say my little piece.
• 41:50
  Speaker 11: Man.
• 41:51
  Speaker 17: I was impressed with shoddy system the other day. I
• 41:56
  Speaker 17: was a little a little hesitant about the dfense, but
• 41:58
  Speaker 17: I feel like I don't know if it was the
• 42:00
  Speaker 17: halftime or the ring de lay, but I feel like
• 42:03
  Speaker 17: it helped evil flu defense out. And I'm not gonna
• 42:09
  Speaker 17: harp on the Michael Parsons things because I feel like
• 42:12
  Speaker 17: defense did their job as far as pressures. Now, I
• 42:16
  Speaker 17: would like to see a couple more sacks here in her,
• 42:19
  Speaker 17: so hopefully we can generate that in the next couple.
• 42:22
  Speaker 6: Of games and see how that goes.
• 42:24
  Speaker 17: And I was reading some stats on her. They said
• 42:26
  Speaker 17: Dallas had I think the second most pressure rate, So
• 42:29
  Speaker 17: that mean I mean the back end was holding up
• 42:31
  Speaker 17: as much. And I don't know if that was because
• 42:33
  Speaker 17: they were playing a lot of zone and not man
• 42:36
  Speaker 17: to try to help with the stop. The Eagles and whatnot.
• 42:40
  Speaker 17: But we'll see how they continue. I was reading some
• 42:43
  Speaker 17: stuff that Evil Fool's likes to play a lot of zone,
• 42:45
  Speaker 17: so hopefully that that helps and we can get us
• 42:48
  Speaker 17: some cover sacks. So we'll see how that goes. And
• 42:51
  Speaker 17: I'm a little I'm a little more optimistic than I
• 42:54
  Speaker 17: was when the season started. I wasn't horrible, but I'm
• 42:56
  Speaker 17: a lot more optimistic now after actually getting to see
• 42:59
  Speaker 17: them play.
• 43:01
  Speaker 11: But I ain't gonna hold you too much.
• 43:03
  Speaker 17: I get him when I can, and and keep keep.
• 43:06
  Speaker 11: Listening to you.
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Lewis appreciate that. Yeah, the you know, the
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: the pressure was there. I think they they had to.
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: They had to dial it up there in the second half.
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: I mean, I haven't seen I could be wrong. I
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: haven't seen Trayvon Diggs on the blitz before that I
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: can remember, and I certainly haven't seen two cornerback blitzes,
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: you know, on the same on back to back plays
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: with Doron Bland also coming in. So you could tell
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: that Eberflus had to, you know, dig into the bag
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: a little bit more than than you would want. What
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: you would would love to see is just the guys
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: you have out there as a Roku, Sam Williams, Kneeling
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: Fowler just get there, you know. But it doesn't always
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: work that way on the back end though. I think
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: when you look at the corners, you know, everybody has
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: three corners that they're going to play because you play
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: a lot of nickels, so you know you really have
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: to have three and then you know your two safeties.
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: I think when you look at those five players from
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: one to five, Digs and Bland and Elam at corner
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: with Hooker and Donovan Wilson, I mean that's probably as
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: good of a of a one to five combination of
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: secondary players that you're gonna have that. I mean, most
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: teams would probably like to have that. I mean really,
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: so I think it's going to be key to get
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: the pass rush where you want it because if they
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: can do that, they can start figuring that out and
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: not have to take pass rush from the secondary like
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: they did with Digs and Bland, but you can generate
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: some pass rush to their with that those five guys
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: that they can stay healthy, that I think that's a
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: pretty talented secondary. So you know, something something to look at.
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: I we'll see what happens this week. Then they're going
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: to face an offensive line and a quarterback not in
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: the same level is what we had with you know,
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: what we saw was Philadelphia. All right, let's go to
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: Jeremy in Salt Lake. Jeremy, you with us?
• 45:11
  Speaker 8: I am here.
• 45:12
  Speaker 12: How you do?
• 45:13
  Speaker 8: I'm good? How are you doing?
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: Man?
• 45:17
  Speaker 8: So yeah, I'm kind of cooled down after Thursday. You know,
• 45:21
  Speaker 8: I was running pretty hot after the game because I
• 45:24
  Speaker 8: thought we had it, but especially if that rained away.
• 45:26
  Speaker 8: But one of the things I want to point out
• 45:30
  Speaker 8: that not a lot of people are talking out is, man,
• 45:32
  Speaker 8: I saw some holds that were pretty There's one. I
• 45:37
  Speaker 8: think it was on the second Eagles touchdown drive and
• 45:41
  Speaker 8: it was third and long and we had hurts and
• 45:45
  Speaker 8: he leaked out to the left and Ezra Ka got
• 45:47
  Speaker 8: held horribly by and and if we if he doesn't
• 45:53
  Speaker 8: get held there, they're off the field, right.
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 45:56
  Speaker 8: And I think you I think you pointed out on
• 45:59
  Speaker 8: your five plays to keep playing the next play, Yeah,
• 46:01
  Speaker 8: the next key play where he ran for that twenty
• 46:06
  Speaker 8: yard game something like that, But that should have never happened,
• 46:09
  Speaker 8: and that those are the kinds of things I know.
• 46:11
  Speaker 8: You know a lot of people don't like to playing
• 46:13
  Speaker 8: about the rest but I do. And that just really
• 46:18
  Speaker 8: got me going because I felt like, you know, our
• 46:21
  Speaker 8: pass rush did get there at times, but I saw,
• 46:25
  Speaker 8: I saw, I saw three blatant holds that they just
• 46:28
  Speaker 8: don't get called, you know, And I thought that's frustrating
• 46:32
  Speaker 8: as a fan to watch. But you know, knowing that
• 46:35
  Speaker 8: even with the CD drops and all that, this team
• 46:37
  Speaker 8: played good enough to win. And you know, look at
• 46:41
  Speaker 8: twenty fourteen, twenty sixteen, you know, losing that first game
• 46:46
  Speaker 8: sometimes it is good. Like you said, it hurts, but
• 46:48
  Speaker 8: it's a good hurt because they know, you know, we
• 46:52
  Speaker 8: knew it was capable of. But I'll get off. But yeah,
• 46:55
  Speaker 8: thanks a lot for all you guys do.
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: Man, thank you for the call. I think you make
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: some really good points. And I've said this so many
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: times and I know it's a broken record to you
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: guys that have heard me over the years, but I
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: really believe it, so I'll throw it out there again
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: when the schedule comes out. I always look at week two.
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: I think Week two is the most important game of
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: the especially of the first half of the season, and
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: especially when you look at Philadelphia on the road, it's
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: like it's gonna be hard to get that win. I
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: think we knew that from the very very start when
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: the schedule comes out. So all right, if you don't
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: get that win, you want to you want to show out,
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: you want to play well. If you don't get that win, okay,
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: but you better come back in week two and win,
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: regardless of where it is. So Giants, when that came out,
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: I scheduled that. I mean, we put gut feelings, we
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: did a video all that. What game are you looking
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: to week two, Giants, Because even if you lose the Philly,
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: you better come back and win. Now, if you beat Philly,
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: you better win. You don't want to be one in one, one,
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: two and two and all that stuff. You want to
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: start stack and win. So regardless, you want to show
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: that Week one is not necessarily going to set the
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: tone of the season, and you come back here and
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: get this win. So I think it's very very important
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: that the Cowboys can can bounce back get a win.
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: You certainly don't want to be oh and two and
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: two in the division. So it looks like a very
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: winnable game, but still it's a division game, and they
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: got good pass rushers and a good defensive line, so
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: they're going to have to figure it out, and if
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: CD and Pickings are are on point and making plays,
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: I think it could be a good fun game for
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys there. But another point, and I've heard this,
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: I've heard this for years. I think we're going to
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: see as Araku a lot of times where people are
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: going to say he looks like he's getting held, and
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: then one of the reasons is that, and I've heard
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: I've heard different coaches and scouts say, when you're undersized,
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: they get your hands on you, it's not necessarily going
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: to be holding. They're not going to call all that
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: it looks like that. You know, he's got you pretty
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: good because you don't have enough of that upper body
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: strength to kind of get away from it. That's a
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: problem that he's gonna have to figure out. I think
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: it was questionable. When I first saw it, I thought, oh,
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: he's getting held, But then when I saw it again closer,
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: I was like, I don't know, you know, you could
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: probably call that every play and they don't. So that's
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: something he's gonna have to really figure out. Is that
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: he's gonna have a mismatch. If the guy gets his
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: hands on him, he's not gonna win a lot. He's
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: gonna have to make sure that he uses his quickness
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: to get around, bend all that stuff to get around
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: these guys and and and then get get to the quarterback.
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: He'll figure it out. I mean, I think he's a
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: he's a good young player, and I think he'll be fine.
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: But that's something he's gonna have to work on. He
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: doesn't just have that that brute strength right now. They
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: might get there, but just that brute stree now just
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: push people back, get away from some of that. So
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: he's gonna have to be crafty, uh and and figure
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: it out. But I think you will. And I'm I
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: did you know to see what the cowboys have?
• 50:02
  Speaker 16: Great?
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: Great show guys. I appreciate that. Uh And and you
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: know I love I love the call. My favorite call,
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: Alan and Clearwater, Florida. That's absolutely my favorite call. And
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: I say that because when you make calls that other
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: people are talking about, that's what this show is all about.
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: Robin from Vegas didn't call today or didn't get in.
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: He might have called, but he's been doing that for years.
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: And that's what makes a good show is that you
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: don't we don't have to agree with opinions, just do
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: something to stir up some debate, and I appreciate that.
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: So hope you guys can call back tomorrow. We'll do
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: this thing again tomorrow on the Cowboys story line for
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: Chris Beam. I'm Nick Eaven. We'll see then.
