- 0:12Speaker 2: Cowboys Storyline presented by Gillette, the official shave of the

- 0:19Speaker 1: Here's Nick Eatman, what is up? Welcome to Cowboys Storyline.
- 0:28Speaker 1: It's Wednesday, September seventeenth, twenty twenty five. I am Nick Eatman.
- 0:34Speaker 1: Cowboys and Bears in Chicago. Don't go to Chicago as
- 0:38Speaker 1: much as I I'd like to. What a fun city
- 0:42Speaker 1: when it's not freezing cole, but get a chance to
- 0:46Speaker 1: go when the weather's nice. I do remember back in
- 0:48Speaker 1: two thousand and seven, seems like Week three went up there.
- 0:52Speaker 1: It was a Sunday night game. It was a good,
- 0:53Speaker 1: good game for the Cowboys. It's a lot of fun
- 0:56Speaker 1: to kind of might have been a Monday night game actually,
- 0:58Speaker 1: but either way it was. It was a lot of
- 1:00Speaker 1: fun to go out there and and uh and see
- 1:04Speaker 1: the city and it'll it'll be a good one. You know,
- 1:06Speaker 1: the Bears when you're zero and two, I mean, and
- 1:10Speaker 1: your coach doesn't have a win, all this expectations for
- 1:13Speaker 1: them to be good this year. I can't imagine more
- 1:17Speaker 1: of a desperation Cowboys are going to be walking into.
- 1:20Speaker 1: So they're gonna have to match that because being one
- 1:23Speaker 1: and two with the Packers coming to town the next
- 1:25Speaker 1: week is going to be at that same level, so
- 1:27Speaker 1: that the Cowboys need to match that desperation and see
- 1:30Speaker 1: if they can get to two and one. So I
- 1:32Speaker 1: think there's really a lot of points scored in this game.
- 1:34Speaker 1: I don't even know what the over under is or
- 1:36Speaker 1: even what the point spread is. I don't even know.
- 1:39Speaker 1: I would imagine the Cowboys are slightly favored. I don't know.
- 1:42Speaker 1: I really don't know, but I bet you the point spread.
- 1:44Speaker 1: I bet the over under is pretty high because there's
- 1:46Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of points scored in this game.
- 1:48Speaker 1: All right, eight A eight eight five five two two
- 1:49Speaker 1: nine seven. Let's talk about the Bears game. Let's talk
- 1:52Speaker 1: about the Giants. If you want to go backwards, talk
- 1:55Speaker 1: about a lot of that good stuff. Let's go to
- 1:56Speaker 1: this to New Mexico. Gary from New Mexico's First Hey Nick.
- 2:01Speaker 3: Good morning, Hey Gary, Trivia question time for the Bears. Okay, okay,
- 2:07Speaker 3: nineteen eighty one, Thanksgiving Day, Cowboys are en route to
- 2:11Speaker 3: their second straight NFC Championship game. They play the Bears
- 2:14Speaker 3: on Thanksgiving. Danny White gets knocked out of that game
- 2:17Speaker 3: in the second quarter. Who comes in for him and
- 2:19Speaker 3: wins that game?
- 2:22Speaker 1: Eighty one?
- 2:24Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 2:24Speaker 1: Is this is this? Glenn Carano?
- 2:27Speaker 3: Glenn Carano, you got it? That was an easy one.
- 2:30Speaker 3: But I couldn't think of a good Bears Cowboys trivia
- 2:32Speaker 3: question this morning. Yeah, Glenn Corono, Well, the father of
- 2:36Speaker 3: actress Gina Corano, by the way.
- 2:38Speaker 1: I know, right right right, yeah, okay, yeah, you know
- 2:41Speaker 1: what's funny that? But hold on, Gary, funny that you
- 2:43Speaker 1: say that. Ye, So I need to throw in five
- 2:46Speaker 1: more questions to every Thursday, we've been doing twenty trivia questions.
- 2:50Speaker 1: I think we have fifteen right now. My man Kurt
- 2:52Speaker 1: Daniels does fifteen. I throw in five and I got
- 2:55Speaker 1: a couple of mind that's gonna be one of them. Okay,
- 2:58Speaker 1: that's gonna be one of them. So if you guys
- 2:59Speaker 1: are on out and have you ever have you ever
- 3:01Speaker 1: on there on Thursday we're doing Cowboys trivia, I will
- 3:04Speaker 1: have that question in there. You definitely can get one.
- 3:07Speaker 1: And I did tell Kurt eas up a little bit, man.
- 3:10Speaker 1: These are hard like like let's you know, let's have
- 3:12Speaker 1: some some you know, little better ones than that. But anyways,
- 3:17Speaker 1: good question, and I'm using.
- 3:19Speaker 3: That you are an elite when it comes to the
- 3:22Speaker 3: trivia questions. I really enjoyed that, Stuffy, I.
- 3:25Speaker 1: Enjoyed it too. I enjoyed too, I guess. And I
- 3:27Speaker 1: didn't like that you stumped me last week. That one
- 3:29Speaker 1: was a hard one, but you did. You got me
- 3:30Speaker 1: last week. I didn't like that. Get your bag.
- 3:33Speaker 3: Wait till next week. Green Bays rich with trivia questions. Yeah,
- 3:36Speaker 3: back to this year's back to this year's You remember
- 3:39Speaker 3: you may not remember this, but when we were kids.
- 3:41Speaker 3: I'm a little older than you, but when I was
- 3:42Speaker 3: a little bitty kid, there was a Disney movie that
- 3:44Speaker 3: came out. I think it was the first movie my
- 3:46Speaker 3: parents took me to. It was called Gust the Pigskin Mule.
- 3:49Speaker 3: It was about a mule that kicked field goals. Anyway,
- 3:54Speaker 3: look it up sometime. But that's who we have on
- 3:56Speaker 3: our team. We literally have Gust the Pigskin Mule as
- 3:59Speaker 3: our field goal kicker. What Brandon Aubrey, did you know
- 4:03Speaker 3: we played this game all every year. If you could
- 4:05Speaker 3: take a cowboy from the past and put him on
- 4:07Speaker 3: a today's team. You know, we always play that game.
- 4:10Speaker 3: Can you imagine if we had Brandon Aubrey on any
- 4:13Speaker 3: of Landry's teams in the seventies, they would have won
- 4:16Speaker 3: twelve Super Bowls.
- 4:17Speaker 4: I mean, this, dude, is unbelievable what.
- 4:20Speaker 3: They did on Sunday. And I know there's a lot
- 4:23Speaker 3: that needs corrected, and there's a lot we can nitpick on,
- 4:26Speaker 3: but that was a mentally tough football team and a
- 4:29Speaker 3: clutch performance from Dak Prescott and from Brandon Aubrey. And
- 4:33Speaker 3: I'm hoping that they can build on that. That was
- 4:36Speaker 3: remarkable what they did to overcome all that adversity. He
- 4:39Speaker 3: kicked a sixty four yard field goal as time expired.
- 4:42Speaker 3: I mean, let that sink in. That's amazing that he
- 4:46Speaker 3: did that. If we can just play competent defense and
- 4:48Speaker 3: not turn the ball over, we should win half of
- 4:50Speaker 3: our games just because of him. But with all of
- 4:54Speaker 3: that said, that's my comment. Now I've got a question
- 4:56Speaker 3: for you know, hang up and listen. How much do
- 4:59Speaker 3: you think the coup for BB injury will negatively affect
- 5:03Speaker 3: our offense over the next six to eight weeks? And
- 5:05Speaker 3: thank you for taking my call?
- 5:06Speaker 1: All right, yeah, and you know, right, we'll see how
- 5:10Speaker 1: how long BB's out. He's going to be on IR
- 5:12Speaker 1: for sure for four weeks high ankle sprain. You never know,
- 5:16Speaker 1: you know, those guys, I've seen different variations of that injury.
- 5:20Speaker 1: You've seen some come back and one week. You know,
- 5:23Speaker 1: I've seen guys coming back six to eight weeks. So
- 5:28Speaker 1: we'll see, you know. When I was looking at the
- 5:31Speaker 1: fifty three man roster, we put out a photo gallery
- 5:35Speaker 1: of that a couple weeks ago, and I started looking
- 5:37Speaker 1: at the whole team, and I was impressed with the depth,
- 5:41Speaker 1: especially on the offensive line. When you think about how
- 5:43Speaker 1: many guys on the offensive line have started games, and
- 5:46Speaker 1: Hoffman and Bass right right in there. So I was thinking,
- 5:49Speaker 1: you know, you've got a lot of veteran players that
- 5:52Speaker 1: have played from your backup position. Hoffmin's obviously one of them,
- 5:56Speaker 1: and here we go, Hoffmin's going to have to play
- 5:58Speaker 1: for a lot. I feel like this is no disrespect
- 6:03Speaker 1: to Bebe because I think a Bbe's obviously a better player.
- 6:05Speaker 1: They wouldn't be not starting him. We've we've seen that
- 6:09Speaker 1: they don't care if you're a first round pick. If
- 6:10Speaker 1: you're not good enough, you're not good enough. So he's better.
- 6:12Speaker 1: But when Hoffmann's in the game, they have success. For
- 6:16Speaker 1: the most part, guard center. When he started games, they've
- 6:20Speaker 1: had some success there. They moved the ball. I don't
- 6:23Speaker 1: think they're gonna move They're gonna lose a lot. Make
- 6:25Speaker 1: sure those snaps are there, shotgun snaps, snaps from center.
- 6:29Speaker 1: As long as that's ready to go, I don't think
- 6:32Speaker 1: they're gonna lose a ton. I really don't. You got
- 6:34Speaker 1: two Tyler's next to you, Tyler Smith, Tyler Booker should
- 6:38Speaker 1: be fine there. So all right, great call by Gary.
- 6:41Speaker 1: Let's go to I May in Napa, California. I'm May.
- 6:45Speaker 1: What's up?
- 6:47Speaker 5: Hey? What's happening to Nick? How are you doing good?
- 6:49Speaker 6: You?
- 6:51Speaker 5: I'm great, man, I'm great sends out greats or harvest
- 6:55Speaker 5: and so it's a great time in the valley right now.
- 6:58Speaker 1: The sounds like it, I mean, wake up. No, it
- 7:01Speaker 1: is eight o'clock in the morning over there.
- 7:03Speaker 5: Yeah, no, it's still early man, and still I'm still
- 7:06Speaker 5: working on the first cup of coffee. So all right
- 7:08Speaker 5: again going, but much happy to get on the phone
- 7:10Speaker 5: with you. Like I said before, you're a hard man
- 7:13Speaker 5: to get old of.
- 7:13Speaker 1: Appreciate it. We're doing a good job here.
- 7:16Speaker 5: All right, Yeah, you're doing great. Hey, So I wanted
- 7:19Speaker 5: to talk about the game. You know, obviously a bunch
- 7:22Speaker 5: of things always want to talk about, but the game
- 7:24Speaker 5: was what's happening. So let's let's get into a little
- 7:27Speaker 5: bit of that blitzing Caleb Williams. You think the Cowboys
- 7:31Speaker 5: will will blitz him some or blitz him more, just because,
- 7:36Speaker 5: you know, get him kind of rattled and off his game.
- 7:39Speaker 5: It feels like he plays a little erratic whenever he's
- 7:42Speaker 5: feeling pressure. So and I think that if we blitz,
- 7:45Speaker 5: you know, maybe we put our corners maybe on a
- 7:48Speaker 5: man man type being defenses instead of playing zone, so
- 7:54Speaker 5: playing aggressive, instead of playing back. I like to see
- 7:58Speaker 5: lea foul in the games, you know, Samborn. Yeah, I'm
- 8:05Speaker 5: just ready to see leoth Alsome. I think Hoffman. I
- 8:08Speaker 5: think he plays better, you know, I think you know,
- 8:11Speaker 5: him coming in just all of a sudden, you know,
- 8:13Speaker 5: after you know, in the middle of the game like that.
- 8:15Speaker 5: He had a couple of tough plays. But you know,
- 8:17Speaker 5: I like him too, just like you were saying earlier,
- 8:20Speaker 5: I think he's a scrappy guy, and you know, he
- 8:22Speaker 5: just seems like he's he's in there fighting, you know,
- 8:24Speaker 5: no matter what guard center, whatever. So I like that there.
- 8:29Speaker 5: And then man, I know that you know, Sanders has
- 8:34Speaker 5: did some good things in in in each of the
- 8:36Speaker 5: two games. But you know, and I know that he
- 8:39Speaker 5: plays because he's a veteran and you know, coaches trust him,
- 8:42Speaker 5: you know, I get that from a coach's perspective. But
- 8:45Speaker 5: I'd like to see Lepki, you know, I don't think
- 8:48Speaker 5: Lepki should leave the game. I think he's in there
- 8:50Speaker 5: for past protection. I think he's in there. I think
- 8:54Speaker 5: he can bleed out for a little dump off when
- 8:56Speaker 5: when Dak's in trouble. I think, you know, he's definitely
- 8:59Speaker 5: a great lead blocker. Just I think he takes all
- 9:03Speaker 5: of Sanders plays, not necessarily hand him the ball off
- 9:07Speaker 5: a lot or you know some but I think he
- 9:10Speaker 5: just takes his plays as far as.
- 9:12Speaker 1: Like bulls on the backfield Devont Williams.
- 9:16Speaker 5: No, no, no, I'm talking about Miles Sanders.
- 9:19Speaker 1: Okay, but who needs to take his Who's you got
- 9:22Speaker 1: me confused? Who are you talking about that needs to
- 9:24Speaker 1: play more?
- 9:25Speaker 5: Hunter Lepki. I don't think Hunter Lepki should leave the game.
- 9:30Speaker 5: In offense I think he should be back there, not
- 9:33Speaker 5: not to get like tons of touches, but to be
- 9:36Speaker 5: back there to block, to just be a single back
- 9:40Speaker 5: if whether you're going to motion CD in the backfield
- 9:44Speaker 5: as a running play, he's a lead blocker there. I
- 9:46Speaker 5: just think that he is your past protector and there's
- 9:50Speaker 5: and you keep Williams in, but then Lepki is your
- 9:53Speaker 5: next guy and Sanders and just you know, I'm ready
- 9:57Speaker 5: to give Blue a player two that you give Sanders
- 10:02Speaker 5: a player too. And when you're worried about blocking, I
- 10:05Speaker 5: just think you leave Lepki in the game.
- 10:06Speaker 1: All right, you know, all right, good talking to you.
- 10:10Speaker 5: Always like to hear what you got to say. And
- 10:14Speaker 5: you have a good day.
- 10:15Speaker 1: Appreciate it. Thanks. You had me confused for a second.
- 10:17Speaker 1: I was like, who it was Lucky? I thought you
- 10:19Speaker 1: said Lucky. I thought that was a nickname for Davonte
- 10:22Speaker 1: Williams or something. All Right, I was all confused, Hunter Lipkey,
- 10:27Speaker 1: And yeah, I don't agree. I don't agree with that.
- 10:31Speaker 1: I think Miles Sanders is. I think we're all kind
- 10:37Speaker 1: of seeing the same thing almost in that you want
- 10:41Speaker 1: to see more. There's nothing just special special, But I mean,
- 10:46Speaker 1: guy got forty nine yard run, got got tackled by
- 10:50Speaker 1: the linebacker, then he fumbled, and then the next week
- 10:54Speaker 1: he's played a little bit, played some on kick return
- 10:57Speaker 1: really for Turpin being out had a nice touchdown run.
- 11:02Speaker 1: I thought that was a pretty nifty run there down
- 11:04Speaker 1: at the goal line. And I don't think that Lipkey's
- 11:08Speaker 1: the guy that should replace him. As much as they
- 11:12Speaker 1: love to do play action, Lipkey's not scared of anybody.
- 11:16Speaker 1: With play action. Your safeties aren't gonna be like, oh
- 11:18Speaker 1: my god, I gotta get up there because he might
- 11:21Speaker 1: hit the hole and go if he does. He does.
- 11:23Speaker 1: But I mean, I think he's different than having a
- 11:26Speaker 1: running back out there, especially catching the ball out of
- 11:28Speaker 1: the back that there's a lot of things you can do.
- 11:29Speaker 1: You wanna blitz, you can dump it off to Minle Sanders.
- 11:31Speaker 1: I'd like that better than I like Lipkey. Now I'm
- 11:34Speaker 1: not saying Lipkey can't do. I think he's like your
- 11:37Speaker 1: full back can be a tied end, closer than he
- 11:40Speaker 1: is a full back can be a running back. To me,
- 11:44Speaker 1: he's closer to being a tight end than he is
- 11:47Speaker 1: a running back. And that being said, I don't know
- 11:49Speaker 1: if he's taking his snaps. That's just my opinion on that.
- 11:52Speaker 1: Let's go to Albert in Tucson, Nick, my brother, are
- 11:56Speaker 1: you how are you doing?
- 11:57Speaker 7: Oh man?
- 11:58Speaker 8: It's another beautiful daily in the desert, and you know
- 12:03Speaker 8: we're talking cowboys with you and the producer Exhorter and
- 12:07Speaker 8: their back there, and you guys are doing a great job.
- 12:10Speaker 8: Appreciate everything you do for us fans. I just want
- 12:14Speaker 8: to give myself a little shout out. Back when we
- 12:20Speaker 8: released there was another kicker on the roster and we
- 12:27Speaker 8: we went with this guy, Brandon Aubrey, right, And I
- 12:30Speaker 8: called in and I remember I said, Hey, you know what,
- 12:33Speaker 8: We're going to be just fine with this guy. And
- 12:38Speaker 8: I did a little bit of research. I've seen him
- 12:40Speaker 8: in his college career as a striker, and if you
- 12:46Speaker 8: look at his kicks and they're on YouTube, this dude
- 12:49Speaker 8: was like spot on with his kicks, like awesome. He
- 12:55Speaker 8: did the same thing in the UFL or the Yeah,
- 12:58Speaker 8: I believe the USFL. It's gonna be great with us,
- 13:03Speaker 8: and I'm excited. I'm also excited from what the Micah
- 13:11Speaker 8: Parsons trade has done for us Dallas Cowboys. Think about it.
- 13:16Speaker 8: We have four first round picks. The next two years.
- 13:22Speaker 8: How I actually got a question how much the trade
- 13:29Speaker 8: value of a person? How much of a big impact
- 13:33Speaker 8: do you think they can have in an organization? And
- 13:38Speaker 8: with that, I know we got a lot of people.
- 13:40Speaker 8: Thank you very much for everything you do. See you later.
- 13:43Speaker 1: Thank you appreciate that. I often criticize people when they
- 13:48Speaker 1: when they talk about fantasy football and Cowboys and the NFL,
- 13:53Speaker 1: because I mean, it's just the two different games. However,
- 13:56Speaker 1: but I will use this example for you. When you're
- 14:00Speaker 1: playing fantasy football you have the number one pick, or
- 14:03Speaker 1: if you're in one of those leagues where they I
- 14:07Speaker 1: forgot what it's called. But when you can pretty much
- 14:10Speaker 1: buy any player that you want, it's not a draft.
- 14:14Speaker 1: It's like an auction. It's an auction draft. You have
- 14:16Speaker 1: the ability to get any player you want. So when
- 14:19Speaker 1: you look at all the fantasy magazines and you're like, oh,
- 14:21Speaker 1: there's Sakwan Barkley or whoever's the number one player, you
- 14:24Speaker 1: can go get them. That's kind of fun to have,
- 14:26Speaker 1: right if you really wanted to, you can go get them. Well,
- 14:29Speaker 1: when you think about the draft, and we're not there yet,
- 14:32Speaker 1: but obviously four picks in over two years and two
- 14:35Speaker 1: first round picks. You could pretty much go get anybody
- 14:37Speaker 1: you wanted to if you wanted to. If you're sitting here,
- 14:40Speaker 1: let's say this team's at fourteen, ten, twenty two, whatever
- 14:43Speaker 1: they are, and there's a Travis Hunter type player that
- 14:46Speaker 1: Jerry just has to have, or maybe there's this defensive
- 14:48Speaker 1: player you just have to have. You could go get them.
- 14:51Speaker 1: You can. You have the firepower to go do that. Now,
- 14:55Speaker 1: what did you give up? You gave up that guy
- 14:58Speaker 1: that you're trying to replay to go do it, because
- 15:01Speaker 1: that's the guy you want. I mean, if there is
- 15:03Speaker 1: a Micy Parsons, if you knew there was a micro
- 15:05Speaker 1: Parsons type of guy out there, you'd go get him.
- 15:06Speaker 1: Everybody would have. They wouldn't have let him go all
- 15:08Speaker 1: the way to number twelve. So that's the ability of
- 15:12Speaker 1: having that. I don't want to get too far ahead.
- 15:14Speaker 1: I like what you said about the striker part of
- 15:16Speaker 1: Brandon Aubrey because that is something that is so consistent here.
- 15:21Speaker 1: That's what's happening here, sixty four yards, forty six, fifty
- 15:25Speaker 1: three whatever. It is the consistency that he strikes the football.
- 15:31Speaker 1: If you're strong enough, you can get it.
- 15:33Speaker 5: There.
- 15:33Speaker 1: But just think about it. We've seen bad kicks before.
- 15:37Speaker 1: Think about it in golf. If you play golf, I
- 15:39Speaker 1: mean you think you're doing everything like you just did before.
- 15:42Speaker 1: Did not knock it right down the fairway, but this
- 15:45Speaker 1: one went off into the woods or to the water.
- 15:48Speaker 1: What did you do differently? You don't know. I don't know.
- 15:50Speaker 1: I felt like it was the same same with kicks.
- 15:52Speaker 1: Some kicks, I mean, why does a kick or just
- 15:54Speaker 1: shank it off to the right or whatever. Well, it's
- 15:58Speaker 1: all about mechanics. But the distant seeing his mechanics is
- 16:02Speaker 1: something we have never seen before. I mean, yeah, he
- 16:05Speaker 1: can get it sixty yards every time hitty yards out,
- 16:07Speaker 1: they'll hit the net. But the fact that he's doing
- 16:11Speaker 1: it on the on the pressure, and the level that
- 16:13Speaker 1: he's doing it every single time, it's amazing. Michael Bowling, Green,
- 16:17Speaker 1: Kentucky's next.
- 16:19Speaker 9: Hey, Nick, how you doing good?
- 16:20Speaker 1: How are you?
- 16:22Speaker 9: Yeah? I used to say that when I was down
- 16:24Speaker 9: and out too? What that was good?
- 16:29Speaker 1: Okay?
- 16:30Speaker 7: Yeah?
- 16:31Speaker 9: Yeah, I never heard Damon Darling, that comedian that's from him?
- 16:34Speaker 1: No, no, no, sorry, I'm.
- 16:38Speaker 9: A little salty this week, Nick, Okay, I got some issues.
- 16:45Speaker 1: Okay, let's go, let's pick it up, Let's.
- 16:48Speaker 9: Go all right, all right, Parsons uh heuh. He got
- 16:52Speaker 9: three holding penalties against him in one game the other day.
- 16:55Speaker 9: He got three holding penalties against him all of last season.
- 17:00Speaker 9: And that Philadelphia game, I mean, there was whole no
- 17:03Speaker 9: over the place that they didn't call on the Eagles.
- 17:06Speaker 9: And then in the U the Giants game, they call
- 17:11Speaker 9: that ridiculous offensive pass interference on Pickens. I mean, is
- 17:16Speaker 9: there I might be just a biased Cowboys fan, but
- 17:19Speaker 9: it just seems like there is something going on.
- 17:23Speaker 1: Maybe. I mean, that's some terrible calls in the game.
- 17:27Speaker 1: Because when you think about it, when you throw the
- 17:29Speaker 1: flag for forty one calls, you're gonna have some bad ones.
- 17:32Speaker 1: There are gonna be some that are good, some that
- 17:33Speaker 1: are bad. I think the offensive pass interference on Pickens
- 17:37Speaker 1: is the worst one I've ever seen. I mean that
- 17:38Speaker 1: that really could be the worst call I've ever seen.
- 17:42Speaker 1: But they had some bad ones too. I'm sorry I
- 17:44Speaker 1: hated I hated the one Ceedee Lamb getting tackled. I
- 17:50Speaker 1: don't know about that one. I mean, you know, you
- 17:53Speaker 1: got to get these guys to the ground. I didn't
- 17:57Speaker 1: love that one. I certainly didn't like the one where
- 17:59Speaker 1: he's pointing at the game and get the penalty. That's
- 18:02Speaker 1: stupid call. But but that's what they were calling. That's
- 18:05Speaker 1: those officials. They were calling that, and they called a
- 18:07Speaker 1: lot on the Giants. They called more on the Giants.
- 18:09Speaker 1: So I didn't like the calls in Week one against
- 18:12Speaker 1: the Eagles. I thought the Eagles had some bad calls
- 18:14Speaker 1: against them, you know, So I try to, you know,
- 18:18Speaker 1: call it like I see it and be fair about
- 18:20Speaker 1: it and think, oh, if I was on the other side,
- 18:21Speaker 1: i'd be pissed. But yeah, I mean there's there's been
- 18:24Speaker 1: some bad ones. You could tell. They're they're trying to
- 18:28Speaker 1: stop taunting a lot more this year. And I don't
- 18:31Speaker 1: know if I agree with that. I really don't. But
- 18:34Speaker 1: these guys are okay, you know, emotionally they're they're okay.
- 18:37Speaker 1: I I don't know if it's for that as much
- 18:39Speaker 1: as it is trying to take that out of the game,
- 18:41Speaker 1: because it's affecting, you know, youth sports and football and
- 18:44Speaker 1: you're seeing all that and that's what they see in
- 18:46Speaker 1: the league. But you're going to see it either way.
- 18:49Speaker 1: So I don't know.
- 18:50Speaker 9: All right, all right, you won't score now or you
- 18:54Speaker 9: want it, you got, all right, I'm gonna go. I
- 18:57Speaker 9: think I think the I think your quarterback has one
- 19:02Speaker 9: more shot. They're gonna have to bring somebody else in.
- 19:04Speaker 9: And I think they're gonna bring somebody else in week
- 19:07Speaker 9: four because he's gonna just be terrible against Cowboys. I'm
- 19:11Speaker 9: gonna go Cowboys twenty seven Bears can Okay.
- 19:17Speaker 1: Yeah, that'd be a problem in Chicago. Thanks for the call.
- 19:20Speaker 1: If that happens like that. Yeah, they're they're gonna be
- 19:23Speaker 1: They're gonna be restless Bears for sure. All right, Brian
- 19:27Speaker 1: and Kansas City's next.
- 19:29Speaker 10: Good morning, mister Eatman.
- 19:30Speaker 1: How are you doing.
- 19:32Speaker 7: I'm doing good man, I'm doing great.
- 19:34Speaker 3: Hey.
- 19:35Speaker 10: My question this week is, you know, so when.
- 19:39Speaker 6: You were talking about in the first couple of weeks
- 19:42Speaker 6: and we heard that the coaches weren't ready to put
- 19:45Speaker 6: Blue in, they maybe just didn't trust him as much.
- 19:48Speaker 6: And you brought up the same thing that I thought
- 19:51Speaker 6: of the Romo game where the back misses the blitzer
- 19:54Speaker 6: and you know that's the end of the season, right,
- 19:57Speaker 6: So I.
- 19:58Speaker 10: Thought the same things. Turpin's not ready. Would they use
- 20:03Speaker 10: a roster spot for him to just be a returner
- 20:08Speaker 10: and just you know, if they still don't trust him
- 20:11Speaker 10: in the whole, you know, picking up a linebacker in
- 20:13Speaker 10: the hole, or you know, you know, no one identifying
- 20:17Speaker 10: which guy to coming off the edge that's coming free,
- 20:20Speaker 10: whatever that is. You know, would they use a roster
- 20:23Speaker 10: spot just for that if that's all that they need,
- 20:26Speaker 10: or do you think they'll stick with Colbert? Now hang
- 20:29Speaker 10: up and listen to Okay.
- 20:30Speaker 1: Thanks. You know, it seems like Turpin does have a
- 20:33Speaker 1: shot to play. I might have said it different yesterday,
- 20:37Speaker 1: mainly because that's how Jerry said it on Tuesday. He
- 20:41Speaker 1: said it that at Turpin. He said Bland had a
- 20:44Speaker 1: shot to play, and it's really it was Turping. He
- 20:46Speaker 1: was referring to Bland's doubtful I think to play in
- 20:50Speaker 1: this game. But the thing about about the return specials,
- 20:56Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, he is a returner, but Turpin lines
- 20:59Speaker 1: up a wide receiver. He does play receiver. He's in
- 21:02Speaker 1: a lot of packages there. And if they have injuries
- 21:05Speaker 1: in the game, if you if you replace Turpin spot
- 21:09Speaker 1: with Blue, then now you're you're going into the game
- 21:13Speaker 1: with picking CD Tolbert and Flinoy as your receivers. And
- 21:19Speaker 1: there are packages that have all four of them there,
- 21:21Speaker 1: so any kind of injury or anything like that, you'd
- 21:24Speaker 1: be down to just three. I think. I think if
- 21:29Speaker 1: Turbin doesn't play, I think it's a practice squad call up,
- 21:33Speaker 1: and the guy that it would probably be would be him.
- 21:37Speaker 1: Looking at the roster, I'm thinking to be Cropper. I mean,
- 21:40Speaker 1: I think he would be the guy that would probably
- 21:42Speaker 1: do a little bit of all that. You know, they've
- 21:46Speaker 1: got the rookie holding the Jalen Brooks as a receiver
- 21:50Speaker 1: could come up there, so it'd be one of those
- 21:52Speaker 1: guys Cropper could do a little bit of some return things.
- 21:56Speaker 1: Holden might be able to do that as well. So
- 21:59Speaker 1: I would think if Turban doesn't play, I think you
- 22:01Speaker 1: go with a receiver there, and if Blue is gonna
- 22:04Speaker 1: have to be ready to go, you know, to replace
- 22:07Speaker 1: one of the players that they that they have. I
- 22:09Speaker 1: will see Jadon Blewetts at some point for sure. And
- 22:12Speaker 1: let me say this other thing before we go to
- 22:14Speaker 1: break here about you know, bluees a guy everyone wants
- 22:17Speaker 1: to see, Leafol as a guy they want to see. Well,
- 22:20Speaker 1: just just remember this, I mean what the defense has
- 22:24Speaker 1: not been great for sure, but you know, in the
- 22:26Speaker 1: first two games you see talking about stopping the run.
- 22:30Speaker 1: Whatever rushing yards, those rushing yards weren't really against stopping
- 22:34Speaker 1: the run. A lot of it was hurt. I mean,
- 22:36Speaker 1: they had Barkley fifty yards, fifty five yards, and last
- 22:40Speaker 1: week they came in Skataboo had a few yards, had
- 22:43Speaker 1: like forty five or fifty yards, had you know, a
- 22:45Speaker 1: couple of nice plays. But I mean they've been stopping
- 22:47Speaker 1: the run for the most part, and that's part of it.
- 22:48Speaker 1: That's what that's what we've all asked them to do.
- 22:51Speaker 1: You know, Samborn and Murray, those guys have done a
- 22:52Speaker 1: pretty good job stopping the run. I'm not saying Leafoul can't.
- 22:55Speaker 1: I'm just saying for what we've asked the linebackers to
- 22:58Speaker 1: do for the most part, that's what they're doing.
- 23:00Speaker 7: Now.
- 23:01Speaker 1: If it gets to a point where they can't cover
- 23:02Speaker 1: the tight end, can't cover their you know, the slot,
- 23:05Speaker 1: you know, they can't carry the guys down the field
- 23:07Speaker 1: as much. And there's been some of that, and I'm
- 23:10Speaker 1: not saying they can't get better, but they were here
- 23:13Speaker 1: to stop the run. So far, they've been able to
- 23:16Speaker 1: do that. All right, let's go to break here on
- 23:17Speaker 1: Cowboys storyline be right back after.

- 25:16Speaker 1: here and Cowboys storyline. This guy just keeps getting in
- 25:19Speaker 1: every every day seems like here Josh in Princeton, Texas.
- 25:22Speaker 1: Down the road at Frisco too, Josh, what's up?
- 25:25Speaker 14: Hey, Hey, Nick, I wanna try to switch it up today.
- 25:30Speaker 14: I'm gonna be real quick, but since I just started
- 25:33Speaker 14: calling in, I want to share one of my favorite
- 25:36Speaker 14: memories of the Cowboys fan. Okay, yeah, So I'm originally
- 25:42Speaker 14: from Baton Rouge, Louisana, and in two thousand and nine,
- 25:46Speaker 14: on my twenty first birthday, my parents get to meet
- 25:50Speaker 14: tickets to the Saints Cowboys game. If you remember, the
- 25:53Speaker 14: Saints were undefeated.
- 25:54Speaker 5: Yeah the year, and I went.
- 25:57Speaker 3: Down to the game.
- 25:57Speaker 14: I'm talking all this crap. I'm surrounded by Saints fans
- 26:02Speaker 14: and I'm just talking so much trash. And then on
- 26:04Speaker 14: the first drive, Romo throws the bomb to Miles Austin.
- 26:09Speaker 14: That was one of the greatest memories I ever had.
- 26:12Speaker 14: And then you know they got to win and to
- 26:13Speaker 14: hold the market ware thing. That was just a great game.
- 26:17Speaker 14: But I want to ask you, do you remember did
- 26:20Speaker 14: Romo check to that play? Or was that the call play?
- 26:23Speaker 14: I can't remember to Miles Austin, Yeah, yeah, the bomb.
- 26:29Speaker 1: I don't remember the checking part. But here's what I
- 26:32Speaker 1: do remember about that play. And I have to go
- 26:35Speaker 1: back and look, somebody probably has already done it. But
- 26:38Speaker 1: something about that the alignement of that play. I feel
- 26:41Speaker 1: like Flowzell was the left tackle when actually moved over
- 26:45Speaker 1: to the right side or vice versa, where the right tackle,
- 26:49Speaker 1: which probably was Colombo maybe was on the left side.
- 26:53Speaker 1: One way or another that they had an unbalanced line
- 26:56Speaker 1: on that particular play. They knew where the rush was
- 26:59Speaker 1: coming and they they I can't remember exactly, but I
- 27:03Speaker 1: need to go back and see something wasn't normal with
- 27:06Speaker 1: the way the lineup was and they had a max
- 27:09Speaker 1: protect on. They knew exactly where the rush was coming from,
- 27:12Speaker 1: they had it blocked, and then Romo hit hit Austin
- 27:15Speaker 1: on the left side, and that was a huge tone
- 27:17Speaker 1: setter because it was like, yeah, we see our thirteen
- 27:20Speaker 1: to no record, but we're here to play. We're here
- 27:22Speaker 1: to play today. And it was one of the greatest
- 27:25Speaker 1: games of all time in my opinion, there's no doubt
- 27:27Speaker 1: about it.
- 27:28Speaker 15: Yep.
- 27:29Speaker 14: And I got to be there in person, so I'll
- 27:30Speaker 14: never forget it.
- 27:31Speaker 1: All.
- 27:31Speaker 14: Right before, before I go stop from the Cowboys Bears,
- 27:35Speaker 14: I think it's gonna be another close game. We have
- 27:39Speaker 14: to watch out for Taylor Williams rushing. I see he's
- 27:42Speaker 14: averaging forty two ords from the ground through the first
- 27:45Speaker 14: two games, so kind of like, uh, well, we dealt
- 27:48Speaker 14: with hurts, We'll have to watch for him on third
- 27:50Speaker 14: and long. So yeah, that's all I got.
- 27:53Speaker 1: All right. I appreciate that, you know, And and there's
- 27:57Speaker 1: something to be said for that too. You know, you
- 27:59Speaker 1: want you don't want to give up the bombs and
- 28:01Speaker 1: and so we saw the Cowboys definitely do that. You
- 28:05Speaker 1: want to keep everything in front of you every now
- 28:07Speaker 1: and again that that's gonna happen. You know, your quarterback
- 28:09Speaker 1: is gonna gonna break free. And I mean that happened
- 28:12Speaker 1: to Dak. I mean that Dak will tell you he's
- 28:14Speaker 1: not gonna he's not gonna win any any sprints, okay,
- 28:17Speaker 1: And and but he it was the sea part did
- 28:20Speaker 1: and he walked, he ran right through it there, uh
- 28:23Speaker 1: for for a huge play in overtime, and and that happens.
- 28:26Speaker 1: That's gonna happen in the game. It just can't happen
- 28:28Speaker 1: on a consistent basis. You know, I wouldn't worry too
- 28:32Speaker 1: much about him. Uh, I mean, he'll Caleb Williams will
- 28:35Speaker 1: make some plays, you know. I'll just be honest. I've
- 28:39Speaker 1: never been a big fan. I was, I'm not a
- 28:41Speaker 1: big fan. Wouldn't have taken a number one overall, just thought,
- 28:45Speaker 1: you know what my franchise quarterback can't lose five games
- 28:48Speaker 1: in college. That's just that's just what you know. You
- 28:51Speaker 1: gotta be good enough to win in college those games.
- 28:53Speaker 1: I don't know the whole story over there. I just
- 28:55Speaker 1: didn't love all of that that was happening with him.
- 28:58Speaker 1: And I think that, you know, I want him standing
- 29:01Speaker 1: in the pocket throw and that's what I want to
- 29:02Speaker 1: keep him in that pocket to throw it because I
- 29:04Speaker 1: think he'll throw. He'll make some really nice throws to
- 29:06Speaker 1: both teams. That's what I believe. And so you know,
- 29:11Speaker 1: but we'll see, you know. I mean, if he's out
- 29:13Speaker 1: kind of like dak if he's out there just kind
- 29:15Speaker 1: of freelancing playing football, he could probably be pretty dangerous.
- 29:18Speaker 1: All right, let's go to Robin Vegas. Hey, Nick, how
- 29:21Speaker 1: you doing.
- 29:22Speaker 4: I'm doing good. I'm watching the crew outside. I had
- 29:26Speaker 4: to come in. I knew they would disturb me, all right, yuh,
- 29:31Speaker 4: I got I got to give some love to Dakka.
- 29:35Speaker 7: I went.
- 29:36Speaker 4: I went to the Raiders game Monday night. Uh, and
- 29:41Speaker 4: I had to sit there and watch Gino Casino and
- 29:46Speaker 4: god is he awful? And the charges just destroyed them.
- 29:51Speaker 4: I don't think. I don't think the Raiders got anywhere
- 29:54Speaker 4: close to scoring, and you know, watching Dack after these
- 29:58Speaker 4: first two games, that's the bright spot. He's we you know,
- 30:03Speaker 4: my biggest concern is always him because without a good quarterback,
- 30:08Speaker 4: a really good quarterback.
- 30:09Speaker 8: You can't win.
- 30:10Speaker 4: And he's playing great. And what I liked about the
- 30:16Speaker 4: end of the Giant game and hopefully it continues, is
- 30:21Speaker 4: I think he found the rapport with Pickens. You know,
- 30:24Speaker 4: he was and some tough downs, he was throwing the
- 30:27Speaker 4: tober and I'm sure like other fans were yelling at
- 30:30Speaker 4: the team, You're like, why are we throwing the tober
- 30:33Speaker 4: on fourth down or whatever? But then he started to
- 30:36Speaker 4: go to Pickens more especially that kind of closed out
- 30:40Speaker 4: the game, and I think hopefully that continues. One of
- 30:46Speaker 4: the callers called in talking about, you know, we have
- 30:49Speaker 4: those four draft picks. If you wait to the draft
- 30:53Speaker 4: to use those draft picks, you're going to waste them.
- 30:56Speaker 4: You need to build on this team this year, especially
- 31:01Speaker 4: if we're hanging in there, because I don't think Washington
- 31:06Speaker 4: is as good as everybody thought. I don't think Philadelphia
- 31:08Speaker 4: is as good, so you may not have Pickens next year.
- 31:15Speaker 4: So if you could hang in, have a winning record,
- 31:19Speaker 4: and you're going to be right there. I believe this
- 31:21Speaker 4: is when you got to use those picks, maybe at
- 31:24Speaker 4: the trade deadline, build this team. If they keep kicking
- 31:28Speaker 4: the can down the road, and you know, you draft
- 31:32Speaker 4: and you hope that's going to be gone and CD's
- 31:36Speaker 4: going to be older and you're going to have to
- 31:38Speaker 4: start this process all over again. I would love, for
- 31:44Speaker 4: the first time in a long time, build on what
- 31:47Speaker 4: you have. You have a really good nucleus. Letting Michael
- 31:52Speaker 4: go was dumb because you said it. Everybody's looking for him.
- 31:56Speaker 4: Everybody's looking for that guy. Now forty seven million dollars. Okay,
- 32:03Speaker 4: I get it, So now go get go. Trade for
- 32:06Speaker 4: Trey Hendrickson. I think he's he's there for the taking
- 32:10Speaker 4: seventeen and a half sacks the last average the last
- 32:14Speaker 4: two years. Mike ha never came close to that. I'm
- 32:16Speaker 4: not saying he's as as good as Micah, but he's
- 32:19Speaker 4: better than Mike had certain things and people say he's old.
- 32:23Speaker 4: The guy's thirty, Go get him. You could probably sign
- 32:26Speaker 4: him for thirty five million dollars a year for a
- 32:27Speaker 4: couple of years, even thirty eight thirty. It's a bargain now.
- 32:32Speaker 4: But build on this team.
- 32:34Speaker 8: You know.
- 32:35Speaker 4: Now, don't get me wrong. If we lose the Chicago,
- 32:37Speaker 4: we lose, the Green Bay, we lose, and then you
- 32:40Speaker 4: feel no, okay, but I don't think that's going to happen.
- 32:43Speaker 4: So let's build on this team with this group.
- 32:45Speaker 1: I get it, all right, Rob, Thanks thanks for the call. Yeah,
- 32:49Speaker 1: you know, I think that it's it's kind of like
- 32:51Speaker 1: you see it in baseball a lot. You know, like
- 32:53Speaker 1: what are you are you a team that's going to
- 32:55Speaker 1: try to add at the trade deadline? Are you are
- 32:57Speaker 1: you going to be a seller? And you know it's
- 33:01Speaker 1: the jury's still out on all these teams right now,
- 33:03Speaker 1: you know. I mean, and we got a call from
- 33:06Speaker 1: Kansas City. You know, we talk about the Bears being
- 33:07Speaker 1: on too, and the Chiefs throwing too.
- 33:09Speaker 7: You know.
- 33:09Speaker 1: I mean, I think we all still feel like the
- 33:11Speaker 1: Chiefs will probably you know, find their way up there.
- 33:15Speaker 1: The Eagles are two and zero and I don't know if,
- 33:17Speaker 1: like like Rob said, I don't know how scary they are,
- 33:19Speaker 1: so it's early to figure that out. And building on
- 33:22Speaker 1: this team, like you said, yeah that that's great, But
- 33:25Speaker 1: if you're going to trade a first round pick, if
- 33:27Speaker 1: you're going to trade some of your picks for that,
- 33:30Speaker 1: then I think that you have to make sure that
- 33:33Speaker 1: who you're getting is going to be somebody more than
- 33:37Speaker 1: just you know, this year, I mean. And so that
- 33:39Speaker 1: that's what made the Amari Cooper trade work at the time,
- 33:43Speaker 1: because there was like, he's twenty four years old, and
- 33:45Speaker 1: he's productive, and he's going to be here for a while,
- 33:47Speaker 1: and he was for a while until it was time
- 33:49Speaker 1: to move on from him. And so I think that
- 33:54Speaker 1: that's that's the key is is making sure that you
- 33:57Speaker 1: use your picks the right way. And they might just
- 34:00Speaker 1: stand in there and draft draft good football players, you know,
- 34:05Speaker 1: because you can you can say I don't want another
- 34:07Speaker 1: Tyler guid and I don't want another Mazzie Smith. Yeah,
- 34:09Speaker 1: but you know, they also paid eighty million dollars to
- 34:12Speaker 1: Tyler Smith and and and he seems like he's gonna
- 34:14Speaker 1: be worth it. And that that was another pick that
- 34:16Speaker 1: a lot of you guys didn't like. Tulsa offensive lineman
- 34:20Speaker 1: who has got a history of holding penalties. Are you
- 34:22Speaker 1: kidding me? That's what was said. You know, if you can't,
- 34:27Speaker 1: if you're not blocking people in the American Conference, how
- 34:29Speaker 1: are you going to go to the NFL. Well, you know,
- 34:31Speaker 1: they moved him to guard and he's he's really really
- 34:33Speaker 1: damn good. I mean, he definitely is. All Right, it's
- 34:36Speaker 1: gonna I got a text question here. This is Kyle
- 34:39Speaker 1: and Sarasota, Florida. He's had thoughts on more twelve personnel
- 34:42Speaker 1: with span Ford instead of schoon Maker. Spanning forward is
- 34:46Speaker 1: grading out very high with run blocking so far, it's
- 34:50Speaker 1: getting there. I mean, I I don't see. I just
- 34:55Speaker 1: don't see what Schoonmaker's providing value wise. You know, I'm
- 34:59Speaker 1: if you you got another guy that could make some
- 35:02Speaker 1: plays down the field, probably a little bit better. He's
- 35:05Speaker 1: a bigger guy than schoon Makers. Looks like a better blocker.
- 35:09Speaker 1: We're kind of at that at that at that point
- 35:11Speaker 1: right now. And I know that they see a lot
- 35:15Speaker 1: in Schoonmaker and they you know, they they wanted him
- 35:17Speaker 1: to be to develop there, and he's you know, it
- 35:21Speaker 1: seems like he's one of those guys as soon as
- 35:23Speaker 1: you kind of count him out, he'll make a play
- 35:25Speaker 1: and they make a touchdown down the field and so
- 35:28Speaker 1: but but he's not he's not a consistent, consistent there,
- 35:32Speaker 1: and and it's hard to be a consistent when you're
- 35:34Speaker 1: back up tight end to Jake Ferguson, He's going to
- 35:36Speaker 1: get a lot of catches, so I don't think you're
- 35:38Speaker 1: far off there at all. Let's go to Ronnie in
- 35:40Speaker 1: New Jersey's next next caller.
- 35:42Speaker 7: Hey, Mike, are you doing good? How are you pretty good?
- 35:45Speaker 16: Pretty good?
- 35:46Speaker 7: You know, I just wanted to stay a couple of
- 35:49Speaker 7: facts that about this team, or or recent teams with
- 35:54Speaker 7: with the Cowboys, I'm so glad. I know we got
- 35:58Speaker 7: we had to lose Parsons, but I'm so glad we
- 36:00Speaker 7: finally finally got a nose tackle that could stop their run.
- 36:05Speaker 7: I mean, I am so thankful for Kenny Clark, and
- 36:08Speaker 7: and and and not for nothing, but Solomon Thomas is
- 36:12Speaker 7: out playing uh our recent resigning and also Odigua. From
- 36:17Speaker 7: what I see when I'm watching the game, he's he's
- 36:21Speaker 7: Those two guys are out playing for a team that
- 36:23Speaker 7: loves to sign their own or loves their own players
- 36:26Speaker 7: and all that stuff. I'm glad that the two players
- 36:28Speaker 7: that they signed or traded for from another team are
- 36:33Speaker 7: out outright out playing our own guys for a team
- 36:37Speaker 7: that loves their own guys. Aside from that, I just
- 36:40Speaker 7: want to say, like ebra Flus, either either bro either
- 36:44Speaker 7: start scheming with with what the players you have and
- 36:48Speaker 7: stop playing all this song coverage that that old beat
- 36:51Speaker 7: up quarterback that's out almost done just through five hundred
- 36:55Speaker 7: yards on you either start playing man or man or
- 36:59Speaker 7: start like throwing some blitz or something like that, because
- 37:02Speaker 7: that's not gonna do it. That's not gonna do it.
- 37:04Speaker 14: Uh.
- 37:05Speaker 7: I just want to hear your thoughts and thanks for
- 37:07Speaker 7: taking my colding, all right.
- 37:09Speaker 1: Appreciate uh the call. Thank you got a lot of
- 37:14Speaker 1: tours going through the the complex here today and you
- 37:17Speaker 1: never you never know what you're gonna see. You really,
- 37:19Speaker 1: you really don't good good stuff. Sorry, I agree with
- 37:25Speaker 1: you one hundred percent. On you got to mix this up.
- 37:27Speaker 1: If you're Ebraflus, he can't. You can't keep doing what
- 37:30Speaker 1: you're doing. I mean, analytics is taken over now the NFL.
- 37:35Speaker 1: I mean everybody calls in with PFF grades and and
- 37:39Speaker 1: and all the you know drop back you know percentages,
- 37:43Speaker 1: and and just everyone knows how many times people do
- 37:47Speaker 1: this on second down when the wind's blowing and the
- 37:50Speaker 1: sun's out and it's cold. I mean everyone knows the
- 37:53Speaker 1: analytics part of it. And if the fans know it,
- 37:56Speaker 1: because these websites are throwing it out there, then you know,
- 37:59Speaker 1: the the teams with their seven or eight members of
- 38:02Speaker 1: their analytics department no as well. So it's got to
- 38:05Speaker 1: be mixed up. You can't do anything ninety eight percent
- 38:07Speaker 1: of the time, which is what you know those stats
- 38:10Speaker 1: show on dropbacks and stuff like that, and so especially
- 38:13Speaker 1: when you give up thirty seven because ding ding it
- 38:15Speaker 1: didn't work, you know, so like mix it up. Nothing
- 38:18Speaker 1: should be you know, ninety percent of the time unless
- 38:20Speaker 1: you're just running the football off the middle like in
- 38:22Speaker 1: high school football, and then you getting seven, eight, ten, fourteen,
- 38:25Speaker 1: thirty two six eight, then the end run it until
- 38:28Speaker 1: they don't stop it. But you know it doesn't Remember
- 38:30Speaker 1: the Titans where Herman Boone says, I got six plays.
- 38:33Speaker 1: I mean, then we've advanced a little bit further than that.
- 38:36Speaker 1: Let's go to break here on Cowboys storyline. We'll be

- 40:04Speaker 1: Let's go back to our phone line, Steve and New
- 40:06Speaker 1: York is up. Steve, Hey man, how are you doing
- 40:11Speaker 1: all right?
- 40:12Speaker 16: I'm I'm so glad you mentioned the play in the
- 40:17Speaker 16: Giants game because it went under the radar. But if
- 40:20Speaker 16: they lost this game in overtime, the passing off huns
- 40:23Speaker 16: on Pickens, oh my god, I mean, horrific. Was I
- 40:29Speaker 16: was I the only one who was like, okay, when
- 40:31Speaker 16: they're going to show the replan and be like, okay,
- 40:33Speaker 16: it must have been blatant. I was like, you got
- 40:35Speaker 16: to be kidding, got to be kidding.
- 40:37Speaker 1: I was just it's one of the worst calls I've
- 40:40Speaker 1: ever seen it. Really, you can't, not with the way,
- 40:43Speaker 1: especially with the way Pickens gets held. And they call
- 40:46Speaker 1: it sometimes but not all the time, you know, And
- 40:49Speaker 1: and if you're gonna let them kind of, I mean,
- 40:51Speaker 1: because that's that's the way they say. They say, hey,
- 40:54Speaker 1: the defense has no shot here. You know, they got
- 40:56Speaker 1: to put their hands on him a little bit. But
- 40:58Speaker 1: on offense, I mean, it's just the fight. The guys
- 41:01Speaker 1: standing right in front of him like he's basically blocking him.
- 41:03Speaker 1: So that's that's kind of the way it is. And
- 41:06Speaker 1: but that wasn't That wasn't a tough call.
- 41:09Speaker 16: And you know it was a big play.
- 41:11Speaker 1: Huge play, Yeah, huge play.
- 41:12Speaker 16: But now were you at the game? Were you watching
- 41:15Speaker 16: on TV?
- 41:17Speaker 1: I was at the game.
- 41:18Speaker 16: I'm okay, okay because the play to me that it
- 41:21Speaker 16: was a it was a I thought it was. The
- 41:23Speaker 16: game changer was when Wilson threw the ball backwards in overtime. Yeah, okay,
- 41:30Speaker 16: because I believe the next play was Wilson pick. On
- 41:34Speaker 16: the broadcast, they were like complimenting and giving credit to
- 41:38Speaker 16: Scatterable for knocking the ball out of bounds. Isn't that illegal?
- 41:42Speaker 16: And maybe I'm thinking of something else if you knocked
- 41:46Speaker 16: the ball out of bounds illegal, you know, intentionally?
- 41:49Speaker 1: I think I think the rule is is knocking the
- 41:52Speaker 1: ball in the direction that you are going. You can't
- 41:55Speaker 1: bat the ball in the forward in your direction. So
- 41:59Speaker 1: the defense guy like Elm was running up there. If
- 42:02Speaker 1: Elam had had saved that and his momentum would have
- 42:05Speaker 1: probably batted it backwards to him. That might have been
- 42:09Speaker 1: a penalty, which been a costly penalty. Now he could
- 42:12Speaker 1: bat it sideways or backwards, but he he's not going
- 42:16Speaker 1: to do that because he's running at full speed. So
- 42:19Speaker 1: that was kind of a hidden play too. If he
- 42:21Speaker 1: had batted that inbounds and it went back towards the
- 42:24Speaker 1: they would have called a penalty and they and they
- 42:26Speaker 1: would have probably got a first down. I think I
- 42:28Speaker 1: don't know what the is it automatic first down for batting? Probably,
- 42:32Speaker 1: but I wasn't Yeah.
- 42:33Speaker 16: I'm not even sure what the rule was. I why
- 42:35Speaker 16: I am I might even wasn't sure, all right, so
- 42:38Speaker 16: you would a tribute before I go real quick Bears
- 42:42Speaker 16: being at It's Bears week ninety two Bears Cowboys. I
- 42:47Speaker 16: call it the Curb and Richards game. Yeah, of course
- 42:50Speaker 16: what number one overall draft pick NFL overall draft pick
- 42:54Speaker 16: had his only touchdown of his.
- 42:56Speaker 9: Career that day.
- 42:58Speaker 1: I'm whispering Russell Man Maryland with the fumble recovery and
- 43:03Speaker 1: one of the best slash worst touchdown dances or celebrations.
- 43:10Speaker 16: Did flop or something?
- 43:12Speaker 1: He flopped and then he goes down and then he
- 43:14Speaker 1: kind of his hands and his legs like he's body surfing.
- 43:18Speaker 1: Not good, not good at all. Cowboys. Uh, you know,
- 43:22Speaker 1: win that game, and a lot of people remember thanks,
- 43:24Speaker 1: thanks for the call, Steve. A lot of people remember obviously,
- 43:26Speaker 1: like you said, for Curvin Richards getting fumbling twice in
- 43:29Speaker 1: the second half and they they Jimmy cut him, And
- 43:33Speaker 1: that was one where it was like, you know, Jimmy,
- 43:35Speaker 1: Jimmy didn't you know, if you don't perform, you're gonna
- 43:37Speaker 1: get cut and all that and which is true. But
- 43:40Speaker 1: you know, Cravin Richards wasn't a good football player. I mean,
- 43:43Speaker 1: that's that's what it came down to. It wasn't just
- 43:46Speaker 1: that's the way it was. I mean, I mean, Leon
- 43:48Speaker 1: Lett made two big mistakes and big games, one of
- 43:51Speaker 1: them to cost the game, the other one just to
- 43:54Speaker 1: cost them as a Super Bowl record. But he could
- 43:56Speaker 1: play football. So therefore you're just like, all right, leon
- 43:59Speaker 1: they'll do that again and then let's move on. I mean,
- 44:01Speaker 1: it wasn't like, I mean, people get treated differently. Okay,
- 44:05Speaker 1: we all know that, and if you have kids, you
- 44:07Speaker 1: know that you have to treat your kids differently, you
- 44:09Speaker 1: treat your players differently. But yeah, that is known as
- 44:11Speaker 1: the Curve of Nurturge game because he fumbled twice in
- 44:13Speaker 1: the second half and Jimmy caught him. Afterwards. All right,
- 44:16Speaker 1: let's go to I got a text question, Chris and
- 44:18Speaker 1: Wisconsin going into the he said, going to the game
- 44:20Speaker 1: with my daughter on Sunday, last time I saw the
- 44:24Speaker 1: Cowises in Chicago was five degrees. DEA's caught a TD
- 44:26Speaker 1: on the first drive and I had to watch up
- 44:27Speaker 1: Bears with a backup quarterback score on every drive. What
- 44:31Speaker 1: do you remember about that game? It's twenty twenty thirteen season,
- 44:37Speaker 1: and I think I think officially it was eight Maybe
- 44:39Speaker 1: I don't know what the wind chill was, but yeah,
- 44:41Speaker 1: it was very cold. And was that Josh Josh McCown,
- 44:45Speaker 1: Luke mccowns, one of those mccowns that, Yeah, I had
- 44:48Speaker 1: a big game. What I remember, though, is is going
- 44:51Speaker 1: down to the field afterwards. You know, we've been in
- 44:54Speaker 1: a nice warm press box, going down on the field afterwards,
- 44:56Speaker 1: and when you're down there for just a little bit
- 44:58Speaker 1: and hearing how cold it is, like not that bad,
- 45:02Speaker 1: you know what I mean? And then like I thought
- 45:04Speaker 1: Shannon Gross was gonna punch me in the face with
- 45:05Speaker 1: his frozen beard. You know, he'd been down there for
- 45:08Speaker 1: four hours and just frozen, and I was like, it's okay,
- 45:12Speaker 1: you know, it's not that bad, you know, right, Okay,
- 45:14Speaker 1: be down here for twenty minutes. We were there for
- 45:16Speaker 1: maybe five and I think that was one of those
- 45:20Speaker 1: It was one of those games where, you know where
- 45:23Speaker 1: it was. Defense was a problem, There's no doubt about it.
- 45:25Speaker 1: I mean, they just couldn't They couldn't stop anyone. All right,
- 45:28Speaker 1: Greg and Sacramento, Hey.
- 45:31Speaker 15: Good morning, Nick, How you doing good?
- 45:33Speaker 1: How are you?
- 45:34Speaker 15: I'm okay.
- 45:36Speaker 3: I just wish I.
- 45:37Speaker 15: Could figure out who this team is. Are we the
- 45:42Speaker 15: team that's that's you know, so good that we almost
- 45:45Speaker 15: beat the defending super Bowl champs? Or are we the
- 45:48Speaker 15: team that loses to a team like the Giants and
- 45:51Speaker 15: barely I'm sorry now loses but barely scraps by.
- 45:57Speaker 1: Yes, yes, and that's that's what you are. I mean,
- 46:03Speaker 1: that's what these teams are. You know, I just said
- 46:06Speaker 1: that game in Chicago in twenty thirteen. I mean that
- 46:08Speaker 1: wasn't a bad team eight and eighteen. I mean, that's
- 46:11Speaker 1: that's football. That's why we loved this freaking game, because, yeah,
- 46:15Speaker 1: you are both of those teams at once.
- 46:18Speaker 15: I've seen it and it was a great game. Yeah,
- 46:21Speaker 15: but it wasn't you know, there were ups, there were downs.
- 46:24Speaker 15: I mean it was exciting, you know, it was more
- 46:27Speaker 15: I wish it would have been more of a blowout,
- 46:30Speaker 15: but a game like that was exciting. I mean, we
- 46:32Speaker 15: came back from the adversity. So I mean I can't
- 46:36Speaker 15: vault him for that, you know what I mean? Uh?
- 46:38Speaker 15: You know what, though, Nick, One thing I do know
- 46:41Speaker 15: is Brandon Aubrey. He's the best kicker we've had since
- 46:44Speaker 15: Dan Dailey. It might even be better maybe, yeah, I
- 46:48Speaker 15: mean his leg is crazy. And those two that last
- 46:51Speaker 15: kick at the end of the game in the one overtime,
- 46:53Speaker 15: for me, I had zero.
- 46:56Speaker 1: But yeah, zero doubt that I didn't hear you got
- 47:00Speaker 1: cut off. I would imagine you see, zero doubt that
- 47:03Speaker 1: he was gonna make it.
- 47:04Speaker 15: Yeah, yeah, zero doubt. Okay, No, I wasn't even worried
- 47:07Speaker 15: at all.
- 47:08Speaker 1: Here, here's here's the thing though. This week, Okay, he's
- 47:13Speaker 1: gonna line up for a forty two yard field goal,
- 47:16Speaker 1: and some people are gonna get up and say, well,
- 47:18Speaker 1: I'm gonna go there, I'm gonna go get some more chips'
- 47:19Speaker 1: go to the bathroom, like we got this and he
- 47:22Speaker 1: might not make it. I'm just gonna be honest about it.
- 47:24Speaker 1: You know, they don't you know, no one's called Arlington
- 47:27Speaker 1: the Windy City, Okay, I mean, like it's Chicago has
- 47:30Speaker 1: called that for a reason. It's not easy to kick there.
- 47:32Speaker 1: That's why they always have these problems with kickers. I
- 47:34Speaker 1: wonder why, you know. I mean, I mean, it's it's
- 47:38Speaker 1: tough to kick the ball there. So and when you
- 47:42Speaker 1: look at some of his misses, a lot of them
- 47:44Speaker 1: have been whether maybe Washington. Washington has not been a
- 47:47Speaker 1: great place for him or for kickers. So just just
- 47:49Speaker 1: remember that going in. He's steady, and he's butter. I
- 47:54Speaker 1: mean at home, there's no doubt about it. But you know,
- 47:57Speaker 1: don't be shocked if if he doesn't make all the
- 48:01Speaker 1: kicks this week, just because there's been so much talk
- 48:03Speaker 1: about it, and you know, I mean, it could be
- 48:05Speaker 1: a fifty one yard kick and you know it's not
- 48:07Speaker 1: gonna be an easy kick there. So just just remember
- 48:10Speaker 1: that going in. But it's you know, you got half
- 48:12Speaker 1: your games, sometimes more than half at home, and and
- 48:16Speaker 1: he's he's just nails, and so that you'll you'll take
- 48:19Speaker 1: that all day long.
- 48:20Speaker 8: All right.
- 48:21Speaker 15: Oh yeah, all right, Greg, thanks.
- 48:22Speaker 1: Thanks for the call. Great stuff, guys. I had a
- 48:26Speaker 1: question earlier, I guess was it? Josh from Princeton that
- 48:30Speaker 1: mentioned about the game in New Orleans and yeah, and
- 48:33Speaker 1: that was that was an outstanding game, one of my
- 48:36Speaker 1: favorites of all time. I know, I know right now,
- 48:40Speaker 1: my mom camille's watching the game or watching the show,
- 48:43Speaker 1: and she's probably her and her husband Robert probably already
- 48:46Speaker 1: look it up on YouTube to go watch that game.
- 48:48Speaker 7: Uh.
- 48:49Speaker 1: Yeah, we talked about the twenty thirteen Bears game. You
- 48:51Speaker 1: don't have to watch that one. Go back and watch
- 48:53Speaker 1: the nine h Saints game. That was a lot of fun.
- 48:55Speaker 1: But this show was a lot of fun. You guys
- 48:57Speaker 1: did good stuff. Ten ten calls, a couple of text
- 48:59Speaker 1: message questions that lets you go a little bit longer
- 49:02Speaker 1: than that rapid fire on Tuesday. But you know, quicker
