- 0:24Speaker 5: It is Monday, October twenty First, this is Cowboys storyline.
- 0:28Speaker 5: I am Nick Eatman. It is time to get going.
- 0:31Speaker 5: Bye week is over. It was good for most, I guess,
- 0:35Speaker 5: and at least the time off was was fine. Cowboys
- 0:40Speaker 5: should be as well rested as they're going to be.
- 0:43Speaker 5: That doesn't mean that just one week is going to
- 0:45Speaker 5: cure all the things, but at least from a mental
- 0:49Speaker 5: and physical rest, the Cowboys should have that. Mike McCarthy
- 0:52Speaker 5: had a press conference today, talked about his process with
- 0:56Speaker 5: the bye week and kind of looked rejuvenated, felt rejuvenated.
- 1:00Speaker 5: You can kind of see it in the press conference,
- 1:03Speaker 5: and so that's good. Spirits are high, at least from him,
- 1:06Speaker 5: and let's see how that carries over.
- 1:08Speaker 4: But you know, there's a lot of football to be played.
- 1:10Speaker 2: I think the.
- 1:10Speaker 5: Cowboys understand that, and just by watching the games, I'm
- 1:13Speaker 5: seeing some highlights now just by watching the games, A
- 1:16Speaker 5: lot of weird stuff happens in the league. We know
- 1:18Speaker 5: what we see it and as soon as you think
- 1:21Speaker 5: it's one thing, it can kind of shift to another.
- 1:23Speaker 5: But the Cowboys, I mean, they they've got work to do.
- 1:26Speaker 5: We know this. This, This has not looked good at home.
- 1:29Speaker 5: This has not looked good when they face good quality
- 1:32Speaker 5: teams and they have not been on that level. So
- 1:35Speaker 5: we'll see if that's where they are. But I mean,
- 1:37Speaker 5: it's it's a lot, like I said, a lot of
- 1:40Speaker 5: football to be played, so a lot of this show
- 1:42Speaker 5: to be played as well.
- 1:44Speaker 4: Eight eight eight eight.
- 1:45Speaker 5: Five five two two nine seven. We're just getting started here.
- 1:48Speaker 5: Let's start with Anthony. He's in Miami.
- 1:51Speaker 4: What's up? Anthony?
- 1:52Speaker 6: Wow? Nick the quick? What's up? My god?
- 1:55Speaker 2: How are you?
- 1:57Speaker 6: I'm pretty good man. How you doing?
- 1:58Speaker 7: Man?
- 1:59Speaker 6: I hope you enjoyed the toown off?
- 2:00Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it was all good, all right, all right,
- 2:03Speaker 4: to a to in a row for me?
- 2:05Speaker 6: Man. I'm I cause, well that was I think it
- 2:07Speaker 6: was last to default the two tuesdays ago. I called.
- 2:10Speaker 6: I didn't call last week. I want to talk about
- 2:14Speaker 6: the task at hand, which is the forty nine ers,
- 2:16Speaker 6: But at the same time, I want to revisit something
- 2:20Speaker 6: and it's on mister Jones, and I don't call him Jerry,
- 2:22Speaker 6: I call him mister Jones. I'm a fan of mister
- 2:25Speaker 6: Jones since eighty nine. I didn't know the man before that,
- 2:28Speaker 6: didn't know anything about him. Yeah, I'm a big fan.
- 2:30Speaker 6: I'm so happy he bought the Cowboys. When I hear players,
- 2:34Speaker 6: that's the number one way I grade. You watch him
- 2:37Speaker 6: with his family and you can see them. They're visible.
- 2:39Speaker 6: They do things in the community, you know. So when
- 2:43Speaker 6: I hit a players though, former players talk about him.
- 2:46Speaker 6: And I'm a Black American, fifty four year old Black American.
- 2:49Speaker 6: When I hear a black players, when I hear Mike
- 2:53Speaker 6: name it and how crazy a Nate all that he
- 2:56Speaker 6: does for them, that's character to me. I don't have
- 3:00Speaker 6: an issue with mister Jones. I heard the interview. I
- 3:05Speaker 6: heard every piece of it, listen to it three times,
- 3:08Speaker 6: and where people get off saying the man said he
- 3:10Speaker 6: was gonna fire somebody and the discome of the earth,
- 3:13Speaker 6: he didn't say that, and he actually said I revisited
- 3:16Speaker 6: everything I did. But at the same time, why you
- 3:18Speaker 6: ask me that? He said, you just ain't gonna throw
- 3:21Speaker 6: the good stuff I did out with the dishwater. So
- 3:24Speaker 6: they didn't say anything about that. Because people want to
- 3:26Speaker 6: hear what they want to hear. They want the response.
- 3:28Speaker 6: They want the response with. Now, can mister Jones improve
- 3:31Speaker 6: some things as of now with this Cowboys team, Yes
- 3:35Speaker 6: he can. He got some defensive tackles. He got older
- 3:38Speaker 6: defensive tackles, basically second grade type. You know, they're not
- 3:43Speaker 6: Grade one tackles and they're older. With Phillips and Livald Joseph.
- 3:47Speaker 6: Could he improve on that? You can start this season,
- 3:51Speaker 6: you still got a season, still a play all. You
- 3:53Speaker 6: can start next season. You know you needed a running back, now,
- 3:57Speaker 6: could he help the coaching staff out of the players
- 3:59Speaker 6: out with a good running back? And then you do
- 4:02Speaker 6: the line stuff, you do the scheme stuff. You get
- 4:04Speaker 6: better with that because as I remember, the the dominant
- 4:07Speaker 6: Great Wall of Dallas didn't even have a number one
- 4:09Speaker 6: draft pick. Now from line, please tell me that they
- 4:11Speaker 6: didn't have enough first round draft pick on that line
- 4:14Speaker 6: with nat them. So there are things the team can do,
- 4:17Speaker 6: There's things mister Jones can do, but it's still gonna
- 4:20Speaker 6: come down to the team. And that's how you beat
- 4:22Speaker 6: the Niners. You work on things like your discipline that
- 4:26Speaker 6: should have been instilled in you already. Can the coaches
- 4:29Speaker 6: helped with that, right now, Yes, can the players fine
- 4:32Speaker 6: and have felf discipline, take some pride in their actions,
- 4:36Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying, work on their fundamentals, Yes
- 4:38Speaker 6: we can, and we can beat the forty nine ers
- 4:41Speaker 6: with that. And one more thing about mister Jones. Everybody
- 4:44Speaker 6: who called in, everybody on all of the media and
- 4:47Speaker 6: this and that talking about him. The Cowboys gotta do
- 4:51Speaker 6: it on the field, and the statements to Jones hasn't
- 4:53Speaker 6: done anything. A Hall of Famer. If you want to
- 4:56Speaker 6: talk about the old days, you ain't even gonna talk
- 4:57Speaker 6: about the first five years of what this man did. Credible, Dona.
- 5:01Speaker 6: Let's talk about twenty one, twenty three, then we go
- 5:03Speaker 6: twelve and five. I think we beat Tom Brady in
- 5:06Speaker 6: the books and we right.
- 5:09Speaker 5: Right, yes, yeah, okay, all right, you got one final point.
- 5:13Speaker 5: I mean E've ben going on for a while.
- 5:14Speaker 6: Yeah yeah. All I'm saying is you do it on
- 5:17Speaker 6: the field, and the man has done things. Let's let
- 5:20Speaker 6: him continue to do things to help build this team.
- 5:23Speaker 6: Let's just support the team and then the players do
- 5:25Speaker 6: it on the field. And that's how you win, man,
- 5:27Speaker 6: That's it.
- 5:28Speaker 5: That's how you win, right, there here, all right, thank you,
- 5:29Speaker 5: all right, Anthony, Uh, support for for Jerry Jones, and
- 5:33Speaker 5: and and and you know what, that doesn't happen enough.
- 5:37Speaker 5: I mean, it doesn't happen enough where you know, it's
- 5:39Speaker 5: easy to say blame for for everything this is. This
- 5:44Speaker 5: has been a good football team. This has been a
- 5:47Speaker 5: This has been a good team for for a while now,
- 5:49Speaker 5: probably longer than than some of these as longer than
- 5:53Speaker 5: than the parody of the NFL should allow you to
- 5:55Speaker 5: be good.
- 5:57Speaker 4: But it hasn't been great in the playoffs. We know that.
- 6:01Speaker 5: Everybody knows that. But let's don't forget that this has
- 6:04Speaker 5: been a good team. Uh, it's been it's been great.
- 6:07Speaker 5: They've had great regular seasons at times, and and you
- 6:11Speaker 5: know that's the way the NFL is, you got to
- 6:12Speaker 5: go win in the playoffs. But I think what Anthony's
- 6:15Speaker 5: pointing out is that let's let's not forget some of that.
- 6:17Speaker 5: And that's what I think Jerry was pointing out in
- 6:19Speaker 5: that in that interview was that, you know, you want
- 6:21Speaker 5: to run down the list of some negative things. Uh,
- 6:24Speaker 5: it's got to balance out. And and if you're not
- 6:27Speaker 5: going to do that, then you're not being fair. I mean,
- 6:28Speaker 5: you're really not being fair to to the interviewer if
- 6:31Speaker 5: you're just kind of focusing on one thing. Everything that
- 6:34Speaker 5: goes left, goes right, goes up.
- 6:35Speaker 2: Goes down.
- 6:36Speaker 5: It should it should have that a little bit. And
- 6:38Speaker 5: I think that's what Jerry was frustrated with in that interview,
- 6:42Speaker 5: But I don't know. I haven't talked to him about that.
- 6:45Speaker 5: Brian in Kansas City's.
- 6:46Speaker 8: Next, Good morning, mister Eatman.
- 6:50Speaker 2: How are you.
- 6:51Speaker 8: I'm going pretty good. Sarah is wondering how your weekend was,
- 6:55Speaker 8: and did you get your to see your son play?
- 6:57Speaker 2: I did.
- 6:58Speaker 5: I got to see him play. That's to seehim play center.
- 7:00Speaker 5: I got to let's go to Oklahoma for for a
- 7:03Speaker 5: game there, to check out that campus and all that.
- 7:06Speaker 5: That wasn't the greatest game, wasn't the best football weekend
- 7:09Speaker 5: for me, but still it was fun to be there
- 7:12Speaker 5: and and and have, you know, have a week off.
- 7:15Speaker 8: I guess yeah, I'll bet, I'll bet.
- 7:18Speaker 2: So.
- 7:19Speaker 8: Did he get to catch a path?
- 7:20Speaker 2: No?
- 7:21Speaker 5: No, they didn't throw him the rock, they don't. He
- 7:24Speaker 5: just snaps with his mouth guard. You know, he's got
- 7:27Speaker 5: this big I mean, I don't know what I don't
- 7:29Speaker 5: know about the you know, mouthpiece is there for like
- 7:32Speaker 5: eight nine year olds. But whatever, he got to he
- 7:35Speaker 5: got to be all time center.
- 7:36Speaker 4: He's good, It's all good, right, oh man on the show.
- 7:41Speaker 5: He ready, he's ready to be back on the show.
- 7:43Speaker 5: I was like, well, let's wait till wait, Let's wait
- 7:45Speaker 5: till it kind of calms down a little bit right now. Anyways, Brian, what.
- 7:49Speaker 4: Do you got?
- 7:51Speaker 8: Oh that's great man. I'm glad you had that experience
- 7:53Speaker 8: and get get to spend a weekend with everybody.
- 7:57Speaker 2: Where do you go?
- 7:59Speaker 6: Well?
- 7:59Speaker 8: You know this? You know this week I was, you know,
- 8:01Speaker 8: looking around. Obviously, we had some big trades, you know,
- 8:04Speaker 8: DeVante Adams, Amari Cooper got traded and one I actually
- 8:11Speaker 8: don't know this and I didn't google it before I
- 8:13Speaker 8: got on the line. When's the trade deadline?
- 8:16Speaker 2: Uh?
- 8:17Speaker 5: November somewhat November ninth, maybe I don't remember. It's in
- 8:21Speaker 5: November sometimes.
- 8:25Speaker 8: Okay, So we still got a little time. I was
- 8:27Speaker 8: just curious, you know, we we because we saw a
- 8:29Speaker 8: couple of big deals and just if there's I know
- 8:32Speaker 8: you said, next year is kind of the come to
- 8:34Speaker 8: Jesus moment with a salary cap, So maybe we're not
- 8:37Speaker 8: super likely to go out and get a top tier
- 8:40Speaker 8: player right now. But just wondered when that was, and
- 8:44Speaker 8: you know, kind of hoping, you know, hoping against hope
- 8:46Speaker 8: that maybe there's there's something out there that could help
- 8:49Speaker 8: us right now, you know. So for me, you know,
- 8:54Speaker 8: I guess it's defensive tackle would be my number one hope,
- 8:58Speaker 8: you know, So maybe you could speak to that and
- 9:00Speaker 8: anything you know about injury reports, if you know anything
- 9:04Speaker 8: new this this week of you know, is Bland playing
- 9:08Speaker 8: you know, Micah and all that, and uh, my old
- 9:11Speaker 8: time player this week is Mike Jenkins, the cornerback. Get
- 9:15Speaker 8: back in the thoughts.
- 9:18Speaker 4: That's so funny that you said that.
- 9:20Speaker 2: Thanks, Brian, have a good one you too.
- 9:23Speaker 5: It's funny because I parked my car on the campus
- 9:26Speaker 5: of Oklahoma and Norman and I was like, I don't
- 9:29Speaker 5: know where this is. I don't know where we are
- 9:31Speaker 5: I go. All I know is that we're on Jenkins Street.
- 9:33Speaker 5: So I'm just gonna remember Mike Jenkins. Might we'll follow
- 9:37Speaker 5: that whenever we get back to the car. And so
- 9:39Speaker 5: I just had to remember Mike Jenkins. And so it's
- 9:41Speaker 5: funny that you you brought him up there. I don't
- 9:45Speaker 5: have a ton of stories with him. It was just
- 9:49Speaker 5: you know, when you're the second first round pick of
- 9:51Speaker 5: that draft in O eight, he was a good, solid player,
- 9:54Speaker 5: made the Pro Bowl in O nine. Him and Terrence
- 9:57Speaker 5: Newman both made it the same year. But don't have
- 10:00Speaker 5: a ton of stories really on him injury report wise.
- 10:04Speaker 5: You know, McCarthy didn't talk a lot.
- 10:07Speaker 2: He thought.
- 10:07Speaker 5: He said, Mike is looking good, doing doing some good things,
- 10:11Speaker 5: and but still it's early to see where he's going
- 10:15Speaker 5: to be.
- 10:15Speaker 4: I think he was.
- 10:16Speaker 5: He was talking about how engaged he was last week
- 10:19Speaker 5: and how you know, there's a lot of players here,
- 10:22Speaker 5: and you know, especially the injured players trying to rehab
- 10:24Speaker 5: and get better. I would think Bland should be there.
- 10:28Speaker 4: He had a little bit.
- 10:29Speaker 5: Of a setback, but I think he's going to be
- 10:32Speaker 5: close to getting back there on the field. Uh Again,
- 10:35Speaker 5: a little early though in the week to find out
- 10:38Speaker 5: what they're going to do, because then tomorrow's an off day.
- 10:40Speaker 5: They'll come back Wednesday. Wednesday will be a big telling
- 10:42Speaker 5: day to figure out what where they've got and as
- 10:44Speaker 5: far as injury trades and stuff like that go. Yeah,
- 10:47Speaker 5: I mean there there's there's positions. Every position seems like
- 10:50Speaker 5: you could have some kind of upgrade. It's just how
- 10:53Speaker 5: much do you want to to trade for it? How
- 10:55Speaker 5: much do you want to to dip into it and
- 10:58Speaker 5: next year's draft capital or trade players or whatever, you know,
- 11:02Speaker 5: whatever you've got. I just don't see. I don't see
- 11:05Speaker 5: a big trade. I could see maybe something kind of
- 11:08Speaker 5: minor here and there, but nothing like too big for
- 11:12Speaker 5: this year, just typically because that's not what they do now.
- 11:15Speaker 5: They have done it with a Marii Cooper first round pick.
- 11:17Speaker 5: But I just don't I don't see that when happening
- 11:21Speaker 5: this year or something big like that. All right, let's
- 11:24Speaker 5: go to Lewis and Langston, Oklahoma.
- 11:27Speaker 9: Okay, what's going on?
- 11:28Speaker 4: Not much, are you?
- 11:30Speaker 10: I'm all right, man.
- 11:31Speaker 9: I couldn't call last week. I didn't have anything positive
- 11:34Speaker 9: to say, so I just was like, you know what,
- 11:36Speaker 9: I'm just not gonna call in. So I'm I'm back on.
- 11:41Speaker 9: I'm trying to shift the positivity juice and hope everything
- 11:45Speaker 9: is okay. We start getting a couple of players back.
- 11:47Speaker 9: I heard you talk about the injuries with Micah. Yeah,
- 11:49Speaker 9: so hopefully that might help us boast of the defense
- 11:53Speaker 9: and whatnot. And I know we got the forty nine
- 11:57Speaker 9: ers coming up, so everybody's got doom and gloom on them.
- 12:00Speaker 9: But I think this is a different year for both
- 12:03Speaker 9: teams and SO and the way that we're playing on
- 12:07Speaker 9: what is it called uh not at home, I would
- 12:11Speaker 9: say this is probably gonna be another grinded out kind
- 12:13Speaker 9: of game, and I'm hoping that we can make things work.
- 12:16Speaker 9: And they just lost our you it looks like for
- 12:18Speaker 9: the season and SO and prayers to him. I don't
- 12:22Speaker 9: like seeing players get hurt, So I mean, if I
- 12:26Speaker 9: could take a positive away from it, that's another weapon
- 12:29Speaker 9: we don't have to defend. But outside of that, I mean,
- 12:33Speaker 9: I'll be I'll start watching a little bit of more
- 12:35Speaker 9: film on the forty nine ers this week and seeing
- 12:38Speaker 9: what I can, what positivity I can come out of it,
- 12:41Speaker 9: and I'll call later on and have some more words
- 12:44Speaker 9: with it.
- 12:45Speaker 5: Let's talk to you later, all right, Appreciate it, Thank you, Luis.
- 12:50Speaker 5: You know, it's hard to tell about what the forty
- 12:55Speaker 5: nine ers are right now. I've seen I've seen them
- 12:57Speaker 5: a couple of times.
- 12:59Speaker 2: You know.
- 12:59Speaker 5: The the Chiefs are just good. I mean they're they're
- 13:02Speaker 5: just a team, of course they are. I mean they
- 13:04Speaker 5: they've won Super Bowl with three out of four years
- 13:06Speaker 5: or three out of five or whatever it is. I mean,
- 13:08Speaker 5: they they've been really good. But you know, they're they're
- 13:11Speaker 5: good this year. They're they're they're good. They win close games.
- 13:14Speaker 5: They're not blowing anybody out. But but yep, they just
- 13:17Speaker 5: do enough. They have a good running game, good passing
- 13:20Speaker 5: game and all that. So they they're making teams like
- 13:23Speaker 5: the forty nine ers, you know, not not look as good.
- 13:25Speaker 5: I think the Chiefs defense has always been very underrated
- 13:28Speaker 5: because of what they have there at quarterback. And you know,
- 13:31Speaker 5: they they made the forty nine ers look bad, and
- 13:33Speaker 5: they're they've got a lot of injuries there. I'm watching you.
- 13:37Speaker 5: You know, limp off the field looks like he could
- 13:40Speaker 5: be out for a little bit. And then of course,
- 13:42Speaker 5: you know Deebo missed some time, and Christi McCaffrey's not
- 13:45Speaker 5: not there too, So you take those guys away. I
- 13:48Speaker 5: saw where Trent Williams got kicked out of the game.
- 13:50Speaker 5: I mean, is that a Is that one of those
- 13:52Speaker 5: rules where you're out the next week?
- 13:54Speaker 2: I don't.
- 13:54Speaker 4: I don't think so, but sure it would be nice.
- 13:56Speaker 4: He's been great against.
- 13:57Speaker 5: The Cowboys, but they'll look good they'll be good at
- 14:00Speaker 5: Sunday Night against the Cowboys. I mean, this isn't one
- 14:03Speaker 5: of their best teams, but I have a feeling that
- 14:05Speaker 5: they'll be strong. Let's see if the Cowboys can match
- 14:07Speaker 5: them as well with their their week off. All right,
- 14:10Speaker 5: let's go to Carolina. In Carolina?
- 14:15Speaker 7: What's going on?
- 14:16Speaker 9: Nick?
- 14:16Speaker 2: How you doing?
- 14:18Speaker 11: Man?
- 14:19Speaker 7: This is another week. It's another week. Man. I'm ready
- 14:22Speaker 7: to go. I'm excited.
- 14:24Speaker 2: You know.
- 14:25Speaker 7: I've just been thinking like, man, this this might be
- 14:27Speaker 7: our turning point. Man. The gotta be they gotta be
- 14:32Speaker 7: San Francisco or Atlanta, either one win or lose either game.
- 14:37Speaker 7: I feel like with three and three you just got
- 14:41Speaker 7: the crap beat out you right now, everybody in the
- 14:44Speaker 7: locker room should be like, Okay, we're just in the
- 14:47Speaker 7: middle of the pack. If we can turn things around,
- 14:50Speaker 7: that'll make our season. So I'm just trying to have faith, Nick,
- 14:54Speaker 7: you know, do you have any you have some faith?
- 14:55Speaker 12: Man?
- 14:58Speaker 5: Going on?
- 14:58Speaker 2: I've seen this.
- 14:59Speaker 7: Yeah, that's yeah, that's what I said. I said, you
- 15:02Speaker 7: know what, just when they count you out, they do
- 15:05Speaker 7: something special and you know, like the other callers said,
- 15:09Speaker 7: you know how.
- 15:09Speaker 2: You is out.
- 15:10Speaker 7: So that's that's a good thing. Not a good thing
- 15:12Speaker 7: for them, but it's a good thing for us. I'm
- 15:14Speaker 7: just wondering, do you is there any update on if
- 15:17Speaker 7: CMC is gonna be playing next week.
- 15:19Speaker 4: I do not think that's the case.
- 15:20Speaker 2: No.
- 15:21Speaker 5: I know that because I do have him on my
- 15:24Speaker 5: fantasy team, and and uh, you know, he's been out
- 15:28Speaker 5: the entire time. I've heard November that there's a shot
- 15:31Speaker 5: for him to come out. He's not coming back in
- 15:33Speaker 5: this game. So okay, so okay.
- 15:39Speaker 7: I'm getting excited.
- 15:40Speaker 13: I don't getting Hey, listen, we.
- 15:42Speaker 7: Got to get the best chance to win if possible.
- 15:45Speaker 4: I get it. But I've seen that.
- 15:46Speaker 2: Is it?
- 15:46Speaker 4: Jordan's Philip? No, I remember that their running backs name.
- 15:51Speaker 7: He's all right, he's you see, he could be he
- 15:54Speaker 7: could be stopped though you see it. You seen it
- 15:56Speaker 7: last night.
- 15:57Speaker 4: What I haven't half, I haven't seen this.
- 15:59Speaker 5: The defense stop a lot of like good solid running
- 16:03Speaker 5: backs with good solid running games. I mean, the Giants
- 16:07Speaker 5: they're a mess right now. The Cowboys look good against
- 16:09Speaker 5: the Giants, but Pittsburgh ran the ball decently. The forty
- 16:14Speaker 5: nine ers will run the ball like they'll do that.
- 16:16Speaker 5: They'll scheme this thing up and they'll run the ball,
- 16:19Speaker 5: and so that's a huge challenge for the Cowboys. It
- 16:21Speaker 5: doesn't matter who they're their running back is. I've seen
- 16:24Speaker 5: this before with Shanahan's the offenses, and it gives the
- 16:28Speaker 5: Cowboys a lot of a lot of problems the Saints.
- 16:31Speaker 5: I mean, we thought the Saints were great, and they're not,
- 16:35Speaker 5: but they certainly look good against the Cowboys. So yes,
- 16:38Speaker 5: looking at the other teams and going, well, he's out,
- 16:41Speaker 5: he's out. That's good, that's hope. But the Cowboys haven't
- 16:45Speaker 5: shown that they can stop, you know, a good running game,
- 16:49Speaker 5: they can beat a good quarterback.
- 16:52Speaker 4: They haven't done that.
- 16:52Speaker 5: You realize that the three quarterbacks the Cowboys have beaten
- 16:58Speaker 5: did not finish, did not play or finish their game
- 17:02Speaker 5: last last week on Sunday. So the three that they've beaten,
- 17:06Speaker 5: Daniel Jones he got benched and he's going to be
- 17:09Speaker 5: their quarterback, but he got benched in the game. They
- 17:13Speaker 5: they've also beaten Deshaun Watson got hurt and that that's
- 17:16Speaker 5: a bad injury for them, but it looks like his
- 17:17Speaker 5: season is over. And then Justin Field didn't even play.
- 17:22Speaker 5: He's been I mean, he's not the quarterback anymore. So
- 17:25Speaker 5: the three quarterbacks that they've defeated are not in the
- 17:29Speaker 5: best situation with their own teams right now. So that
- 17:33Speaker 5: that just goes to show that, you know, there's a
- 17:34Speaker 5: lot of there's the Cowways have to show it against
- 17:37Speaker 5: some good teams. And regardless of the forty nine ers
- 17:40Speaker 5: record at three and four, I think brock perty is
- 17:42Speaker 5: a really good quarterback, and I think the Niners are
- 17:44Speaker 5: better than their record, and I think it's gonna be
- 17:46Speaker 5: a tough game for sure. All right, let's go to
- 17:48Speaker 5: Gavin in Oklahoma City. Gavin, what's up?
- 17:51Speaker 14: Hey, Nick? I'm sorry, I gotta I gotta do it
- 17:54Speaker 14: to you, man. I'm sorry that y'all have a yearly
- 17:57Speaker 14: tradition in Arkansas of having to play my team. Go Tigers.
- 18:01Speaker 4: Your team is not Oklahoma. You're LSU.
- 18:04Speaker 2: You should Yeah.
- 18:05Speaker 5: I'm from Should Yeah. And I and I thought I
- 18:09Speaker 5: was gonna wear the jersey today. I thought that was happening.
- 18:12Speaker 5: I haven't heard from from Danny McCrae. Uh today I
- 18:15Speaker 5: was here. You know, he's done around. He sure did
- 18:18Speaker 5: text in the middle of the game. He's that person,
- 18:20Speaker 5: but he's not the one.
- 18:21Speaker 2: I guess.
- 18:22Speaker 5: I don't know I'm not going to seek him out, like, oh,
- 18:24Speaker 5: let me wear this likely purple please, Like no one
- 18:26Speaker 5: ever does that, So that's okay. I might have seen you.
- 18:29Speaker 5: I was in Oklahoma City. I was down there at Bricktown.
- 18:32Speaker 5: Maybe I was going to run into you.
- 18:34Speaker 14: I was like, I actually live in a suburb of
- 18:37Speaker 14: Oklahoma City. But I don't like people knowing that.
- 18:41Speaker 4: All good, All right, man? What do you got?
- 18:45Speaker 8: So?
- 18:45Speaker 14: I think coming out of a bye week, obviously Dallas
- 18:48Speaker 14: has to do some things different, whether that be a scheme, personnel,
- 18:52Speaker 14: and whatnot. I wanted to know your thought about maybe
- 18:55Speaker 14: getting Marque's Bill more involved in the defense. I think
- 18:58Speaker 14: that could bring some spark to a team parts possibly.
- 19:01Speaker 14: And I wanted to know your opinion on maybe coming
- 19:04Speaker 14: out in some different packages on offense or extra offensive
- 19:07Speaker 14: lineman since we've got such a deep offensive lineman group
- 19:10Speaker 14: I think, And I'll let you go with that, But
- 19:13Speaker 14: I also want to say, before I get off of here,
- 19:15Speaker 14: I know you police your show as you feel fit
- 19:19Speaker 14: and stuff like that, but I don't think any of
- 19:21Speaker 14: the storyliners that Collin should be calling any players bombs
- 19:24Speaker 14: or garbage. Because we're coming on a public space here,
- 19:26Speaker 14: and I just feel like there's this credit in the
- 19:29Speaker 14: work that any member of the Dallas cawpboards have done
- 19:31Speaker 14: to get to the position that they get to. And
- 19:33Speaker 14: with that, I'll hang up all right.
- 19:35Speaker 5: All right, thank you. Not sure the reference that that
- 19:39Speaker 5: you're talking about there, but yeah, obviously it's been frustrating times,
- 19:42Speaker 5: and yeah, I mean that's people have different ways of
- 19:46Speaker 5: doing that. We try to be as respectful as possible.
- 19:48Speaker 5: If it gets too bad, it gets you know, we'll
- 19:51Speaker 5: we'll definitely, like you said, police that. But again, at
- 19:54Speaker 5: the same time, I get the frustration and all that.
- 19:57Speaker 5: It's got to be respectful though, Marqui, Oh yeah, I'm not.
- 20:03Speaker 5: I'm not hating that him or one ye. I don't
- 20:05Speaker 5: think the Safeties have played well this year.
- 20:07Speaker 2: I don't think.
- 20:08Speaker 5: I don't think Malik Hooker's had had a good six
- 20:12Speaker 5: weeks here. And again it's different, you know, with with
- 20:17Speaker 5: the there's no pass rush. The the corners haven't been
- 20:21Speaker 5: as good. So you know, you you you give them
- 20:23Speaker 5: a playmaker like Diggs and Bland, especially together, which we
- 20:28Speaker 5: really haven't seen that yet hopefully this week we will.
- 20:32Speaker 5: Then you add that with the guys like Micah Parsons
- 20:34Speaker 5: and d Law. It's a lot easier to play safety,
- 20:37Speaker 5: I would think than it has been. So maybe that's
- 20:39Speaker 5: part of it. But but the safeties just haven't played
- 20:43Speaker 5: up to par. So if Marquise Bell or one Ye
- 20:47Speaker 5: or one of those guys can can get in and
- 20:48Speaker 5: play more, I don't think that's that would be a
- 20:50Speaker 5: terrible thing. That's something that Cowboys uh need to look
- 20:53Speaker 5: at all. Right, let's take a break here real quick
- 20:54Speaker 5: on Cowboys storyline. We'll be right back to answer more.

- 23:30Speaker 5: I've never been more uncomfortable in my life. Back here
- 23:34Speaker 5: in story and I didn't think that was all happening here.
- 23:36Speaker 5: All of a sudden, I look at Danny McCrae. He's
- 23:38Speaker 5: got the jersey.
- 23:39Speaker 4: Look at this. I mean you said it was the
- 23:41Speaker 4: white one.
- 23:42Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean it's different, big difference. This one
- 23:46Speaker 2: looks better. They know the other one was thrown back,
- 23:49Speaker 2: so they might not have known, you know, what it
- 23:51Speaker 2: really was.
- 23:52Speaker 5: I've lost a little bit of wait here lately. If
- 23:55Speaker 5: I hadn't, there's no way this is happening.
- 23:58Speaker 4: This thing you put this over shoulder pads. Yeah, holy crap.
- 24:03Speaker 5: All right, I can't even Markansas Jersey. Don't feel like
- 24:05Speaker 5: all right, all right, Danny cra Welcome to the show.
- 24:08Speaker 5: Welcome back to the podcast. Ye for this, Yeah, it
- 24:13Speaker 5: makes the exception here, all right, lsu Arkansas this week.
- 24:17Speaker 5: We've been talking about it last weekend. Uh, and it
- 24:22Speaker 5: just didn't go well for the Hogs. It thirty four
- 24:24Speaker 5: to ten, I believe was the final. You can believe
- 24:28Speaker 5: if you want. You know, the game was a little
- 24:30Speaker 5: closer than that, but it doesn't matter. The game was
- 24:32Speaker 5: closer than that. Danny. You said in the text message
- 24:35Speaker 5: you were scared at some point. Every game is closed,
- 24:38Speaker 5: like well, that's what I'm saying. It was a little closer.
- 24:40Speaker 5: That it went down to one play that changed everything
- 24:43Speaker 5: and then the Arkansas could not come back from it.
- 24:46Speaker 2: It was to That's what I just see. I just
- 24:49Speaker 2: want to make sure you were aware. It was ten
- 24:52Speaker 2: to zero in the first it was sixty.
- 24:56Speaker 5: Everybody cares about that. Nobody cares about score. Yeah, yeah,
- 25:00Speaker 5: what I'm saying. It went down to one play kind
- 25:02Speaker 5: of changed the whole game, and then they didn't recover.
- 25:05Speaker 4: That's fine. Usually these games are a lot closer.
- 25:08Speaker 2: You said. Hell, also, make sure we're clear. You said
- 25:10Speaker 2: the l s U and Arkansas were pretty they were
- 25:13Speaker 2: pretty evenly matched. What you said, Oh yeah, score doesn't
- 25:16Speaker 2: say so, game doesn't say so. We pretty much we
- 25:18Speaker 2: bully y'all. Okay, all right, up and down the field
- 25:21Speaker 2: at y'all's house.
- 25:22Speaker 5: All right, all right, calls are dropping now, we had
- 25:25Speaker 5: calls on the line dropping because because of this. Yeah, yeah,
- 25:31Speaker 5: we can talk about that later. It doesn't matter. My
- 25:33Speaker 5: team lost. Your school lost, and I mean your school one. Yeah,
- 25:42Speaker 5: your school, your school one. That's your team, but it's
- 25:44Speaker 5: definitely it's my team for sure. You didn't know one
- 25:46Speaker 5: player on the team that's what I do.
- 25:48Speaker 2: Okay.
- 25:49Speaker 5: Anyways, Yeah, he's so I hate losing. Damn, he's just
- 25:56Speaker 5: so average. He was trying to throw the ball to us.
- 25:59Speaker 5: We just couldn't catch it. All right, what do you
- 26:01Speaker 5: think about let's let's let's talk about the Dallas Cowboys
- 26:04Speaker 5: since you actually played for them as well. What's going
- 26:07Speaker 5: on with this team right now?
- 26:09Speaker 4: Three and three? That's just kind of a big question.
- 26:12Speaker 5: Now, you can't just come on here and talk ls.
- 26:15Speaker 4: You gotta talk about.
- 26:17Speaker 5: You gotta talk about the Cowboys. Uh what what you
- 26:21Speaker 5: I mean? In bye weeks before like you've been you've
- 26:24Speaker 5: been a player bye weeks. What can you change? What
- 26:28Speaker 5: what can you do like that that can turn things around?
- 26:31Speaker 6: Uh?
- 26:32Speaker 2: Get healthy? I mean we all professional. So you go
- 26:37Speaker 2: into it and you kind of get that that break,
- 26:39Speaker 2: you get a chance to breathe and kind of get
- 26:41Speaker 2: away from the noise that have been going on since
- 26:44Speaker 2: you've been losing a few games. I think that is
- 26:47Speaker 2: is more of a reset and the opportunity for you
- 26:49Speaker 2: to kind of say all right, now, now this is
- 26:51Speaker 2: where we're starting getting and this is this is what
- 26:53Speaker 2: we have to do moving forward. I think it's more
- 26:56Speaker 2: mental than it is physical, right. You can go out
- 26:59Speaker 2: there and you can practice a little bit different, but
- 27:01Speaker 2: practice is practic. You've been practicing this way for a while.
- 27:03Speaker 2: And even with people saying, yeah, we haven't been practicing, well,
- 27:07Speaker 2: it's football. You haven't been playing well, yeah, it's it's
- 27:10Speaker 2: and it's not just what you're doing that practice. The
- 27:11Speaker 2: stuff that we've seen go wrong on the field. I
- 27:15Speaker 2: don't think it's something that you're going to correct at
- 27:18Speaker 2: practice that much to make well, to make you play
- 27:20Speaker 2: that much.
- 27:21Speaker 5: I think the most alarming thing that I keep hearing
- 27:23Speaker 5: in this season is the fact that they keep talking
- 27:25Speaker 5: about not practicing well, so having extra practice if you're
- 27:29Speaker 5: not practicing well so? Is that coaches thing? Is that
- 27:34Speaker 5: the players saying both everything.
- 27:36Speaker 2: It's both, it's both, it's both, but it's on the
- 27:39Speaker 2: coach to hold the players accountable when that practice is
- 27:42Speaker 2: going bad. It's always the classic thing of like you
- 27:45Speaker 2: get to period number four and coaches like, he started over, y'all,
- 27:49Speaker 2: not like it ain't been worth nothing for the first
- 27:51Speaker 2: four and we're not gonna waste this day, so go
- 27:52Speaker 2: ahead and start the practice over, and that kind of
- 27:54Speaker 2: less the players know, like, hey man, we need to.
- 27:56Speaker 2: We need to go ahead and wake up now. If
- 27:57Speaker 2: you can't snap out of that, then yeah, you keep
- 27:59Speaker 2: having this.
- 28:00Speaker 5: Can they can they do that now with with timing
- 28:03Speaker 5: rules of that. Can you can you say.
- 28:05Speaker 4: We're gonna go a little later here today, Well.
- 28:07Speaker 2: You probably you know, not later, but you probably start
- 28:09Speaker 2: a period over okay, and hopefully hopefully once.
- 28:12Speaker 4: To start that first touch into something else.
- 28:14Speaker 2: Individual. Maybe he wouldn't have that.
- 28:21Speaker 5: Speaking of Jody, that's one that's one thing we both.
- 28:24Speaker 5: I mean, he's one of your favorite coaches of all time.
- 28:26Speaker 5: I know for me as someone to cover, he certainly is.
- 28:29Speaker 5: And I got to I got to see. I was
- 28:30Speaker 5: at Oklahoma South Carolina and I'm up there. I don't
- 28:34Speaker 5: know if you saw any of the pictures I put
- 28:35Speaker 5: out there, but I'm up there. You know, it's a
- 28:37Speaker 5: nice view of the stadium. I could see jo d
- 28:40Speaker 5: all the way. I I could see him walking and
- 28:43Speaker 5: jogging and pasting and all that getting in there with
- 28:46Speaker 5: the special teams. And they tried to Oklahoma try around
- 28:48Speaker 5: a fake punt like back on their own twenty five,
- 28:50Speaker 5: and they stuffed it out. I'm like, Jody has been
- 28:53Speaker 5: around too long. Jody Camels. We were talking about former
- 28:55Speaker 5: special teams coach and uh he I love the story
- 28:59Speaker 5: and that since I'm where in the Jersey, I love
- 29:01Speaker 5: this story about how the Cowboys found you. And it
- 29:04Speaker 5: was Jod Camillis was asked to look at another safety.
- 29:08Speaker 5: I think it was Chad Johnes Chad Jones. Yeah, he
- 29:10Speaker 5: went to the Giants and got into a car wreck.
- 29:12Speaker 5: All right, Yeah, did he come back from playing for
- 29:15Speaker 5: a little bit.
- 29:16Speaker 2: He wasn't the same, he wasn't the same.
- 29:17Speaker 5: Yeah, but he was watching him and he was like,
- 29:20Speaker 5: you know, he's like, okay, yeah, he's good.
- 29:22Speaker 4: It's pretty good. What about what about forty four? And
- 29:25Speaker 4: they're like, yeah, no, we're trying to you know. He
- 29:28Speaker 4: kept asking.
- 29:29Speaker 5: He's like, okay, yeah, that guy's good, good player, We'll
- 29:31Speaker 5: probably won't draft him, but what about this guy I
- 29:33Speaker 5: could get? And so did you kind of hear the
- 29:35Speaker 5: same thing.
- 29:36Speaker 2: The same thing. I heard the same thing and it
- 29:38Speaker 2: worked out. And I think from that, just knowing that
- 29:42Speaker 2: he was really bought in from watching the film, I
- 29:44Speaker 2: kind of got that feeling when I first got here.
- 29:46Speaker 2: It was like, Hey, this is what you have to
- 29:48Speaker 2: do if you want to be if you want to
- 29:49Speaker 2: be here. He would make me go do stuff after
- 29:51Speaker 2: practice and focus on certain positions on special team because
- 29:54Speaker 2: he was a certain person that I had to beat out.
- 29:56Speaker 2: And he was like, listen, if you if you want
- 29:57Speaker 2: to do it, you have to beat this person out.
- 30:00Speaker 2: He kind of held my hand, put wrapped his arm
- 30:02Speaker 2: around and to make sure that I did what I
- 30:03Speaker 2: needed to. Shout out to Jod.
- 30:05Speaker 4: He's the best.
- 30:06Speaker 5: All right, let's get let's get to some a phone
- 30:07Speaker 5: caller here we got? Is it Randy and san Antonio?
- 30:10Speaker 4: Is that Randy's on the.
- 30:10Speaker 17: Line, Yes, this is Randy. How you doing?
- 30:13Speaker 2: How you doing?
- 30:14Speaker 6: Man?
- 30:14Speaker 4: You know with Danny McCrae.
- 30:16Speaker 17: Oh yeah, hi Danny. Hey, well I'm earlier they were
- 30:22Speaker 17: talking about the trade deadline and adding to the team,
- 30:25Speaker 17: and I think the best thing that they could possibly
- 30:29Speaker 17: do would be go the other route in trade for
- 30:32Speaker 17: draft picks for next season because they need so much
- 30:37Speaker 17: and I think with the injury to Hutchinson in Detroit
- 30:42Speaker 17: that all Detroit and the other teams in that division
- 30:47Speaker 17: would be interested in getting Michael Parsons and they could
- 30:50Speaker 17: take bits.
- 30:51Speaker 4: I was going to say, like, where are you going
- 30:53Speaker 4: with this?
- 30:54Speaker 17: All right?
- 30:55Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, what do you what do you what
- 31:00Speaker 5: would you want to get back for that two ones.
- 31:05Speaker 17: As much as possible?
- 31:06Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 31:07Speaker 17: True, and uh they need two d tackles and two
- 31:12Speaker 17: stud running backs and those guys are available in this draft,
- 31:16Speaker 17: but they need more picks to get that.
- 31:18Speaker 5: Yeah. I've just never been comfortable. Thank you for the call, ring.
- 31:22Speaker 5: I've never been comfortable with that, with that trade idea.
- 31:26Speaker 5: I know some people have. I just don't like it.
- 31:29Speaker 5: I think I think he's a really really dynamic player
- 31:35Speaker 5: and I would rather than just figure it out, figure
- 31:37Speaker 5: it out how to make him even a better player here.
- 31:43Speaker 2: I don't know the trade thing. I think once you
- 31:45Speaker 2: start doing that, it gives the perception that you've kind
- 31:48Speaker 2: of given up on the season. Right in three and three? Yeah,
- 31:51Speaker 2: like things change. We see injuries, having all the time,
- 31:54Speaker 2: we looking at San Francisco before you go into this.
- 31:57Speaker 2: By week, everybody's looking at them, and we got to
- 31:59Speaker 2: go up to San Cisco. Then that San Francisco goes
- 32:01Speaker 2: out there and plays a game, you lose Debo and
- 32:03Speaker 2: you lose Brandon Ayuk and you're like, wait, we might
- 32:05Speaker 2: have a we might have a shot. Right, This is
- 32:07Speaker 2: a long football season and for you to think about
- 32:10Speaker 2: making that trade. It's essentially saying that we are looking
- 32:13Speaker 2: to the next year because this is this is your
- 32:16Speaker 2: most dynamic playmaker on defense. Talking about giving.
- 32:19Speaker 5: Up I just think they they haven't done a great
- 32:23Speaker 5: job with I mean, that's something Zimmer's got to be
- 32:25Speaker 5: better at and they've got to figure out how there's
- 32:29Speaker 5: a place to play this guy. I don't know exactly where.
- 32:31Speaker 5: I think it's a three four defense. That's what I
- 32:34Speaker 5: think is his best would be his best position outside linebacker.
- 32:39Speaker 5: Three four scheme, that's what what do you think? I mean,
- 32:42Speaker 5: how would you play him to maximize his talent also
- 32:46Speaker 5: kind of keep him from getting you know, the you know,
- 32:48Speaker 5: the big boys on him run stopping.
- 32:50Speaker 2: You better figure out how to play from a head
- 32:53Speaker 2: like he's a masterful pass rusher as far as allowing
- 32:58Speaker 2: him to be able to play the run. He's decides
- 33:00Speaker 2: to be on the edge when you when you're having
- 33:02Speaker 2: teams like that who are focusing on making sure they
- 33:04Speaker 2: get a body on him to force him to play
- 33:06Speaker 2: to run, so it's more difficult for you to have
- 33:08Speaker 2: to do that. So I think three four is perfect.
- 33:11Speaker 2: How dan Quinn had him is probably the best, you're
- 33:14Speaker 2: going to see him, the most productive you're going to
- 33:15Speaker 2: see him, and it's always going to be one of
- 33:17Speaker 2: those kind of disadvantages in the run game, because that's
- 33:19Speaker 2: that's just what it is.
- 33:20Speaker 5: Yeah for sure. All right, let's go to another caller.
- 33:24Speaker 5: Here is Dallas in North Carolina.
- 33:26Speaker 4: Dallas.
- 33:28Speaker 13: Hey, Nick, how's it going today? I'm a long time listener,
- 33:31Speaker 13: longtime listener, first time caller, actually.
- 33:36Speaker 4: Chris, all right, there we go, there we go. All right,
- 33:40Speaker 4: So what do you got?
- 33:41Speaker 6: Man?
- 33:41Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, I don't know if you if you've heard,
- 33:42Speaker 5: you got Danny mccray's also on the line right now.
- 33:46Speaker 13: Danny.
- 33:46Speaker 14: That's awesome over here.
- 33:49Speaker 13: I'm a long time saying here, been fan since birth.
- 33:52Speaker 13: I'm twenty nine, so you know, I was about seven
- 33:56Speaker 13: months old the last time we were at the Promised Lamb.
- 33:58Speaker 4: You know, is that you're real? Dallas?
- 34:01Speaker 2: Yep?
- 34:01Speaker 13: Absolutely absolutely is my name. My dad was a massive
- 34:05Speaker 13: fan growing up. Yeah, oh yeah, the whole family was.
- 34:09Speaker 13: So that was the easiest name my dad actually was.
- 34:13Speaker 13: It was between Emmett and Troy and Dallas. They went with. Yeah,
- 34:18Speaker 13: they were with the generic Dallas.
- 34:20Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm glad it wasn't like Tampa Bay or something
- 34:23Speaker 5: like that, because yeah.
- 34:25Speaker 13: That would be kind of right. All right, Well, I
- 34:29Speaker 13: don't have a whole lot of x's and those type
- 34:30Speaker 13: of questions for you, But I'm a Charlotte, North Carolina native.
- 34:35Speaker 13: Obviously you guys come to Carolina not as often as
- 34:39Speaker 13: i'd like, obviously being able to go see him. But curiously,
- 34:43Speaker 13: have any stories any you know, any places you like
- 34:48Speaker 13: to go to in Charlotte, anything like that, do you.
- 34:51Speaker 5: Think, Chris, Yeah, I got stories about Carolina, There's no
- 34:56Speaker 5: doubt about it, especially this last trip.
- 34:59Speaker 4: But now, so you're going to the game, and I
- 35:03Speaker 4: would love to December.
- 35:05Speaker 13: Currently Panthers fans, currently Panthers fans have those leads for
- 35:08Speaker 13: about two hundred and fifty bucks. So I'm gonna have
- 35:11Speaker 13: to see if I can get one for a decent price.
- 35:13Speaker 13: But I hope too.
- 35:14Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I'm sure it'll be you'll, you'll, you can
- 35:17Speaker 5: get in, you can get in there. It'll be a
- 35:18Speaker 5: lot of Cowboy fans for sure. All right, Dallas have
- 35:21Speaker 5: a good one. Yeah, I mean I had some stories
- 35:26Speaker 5: obviously from from my I can't wait to go back
- 35:28Speaker 5: to Carolina. I'll just say this, it won't happen this year,
- 35:34Speaker 5: but last year my credential was ripped off of my
- 35:39Speaker 5: belt loop by their director of security there. So he
- 35:44Speaker 5: didn't like. He didn't like the entire day the Cowboy
- 35:47Speaker 5: it was. He had run in with the team the
- 35:49Speaker 5: whole day because the Cowboys basically just went into their stadium,
- 35:52Speaker 5: not not just the fans, the team just kind of
- 35:55Speaker 5: went in and said we're taking over. We want to
- 35:57Speaker 5: announce Jimmy Johnson going in the Ring of Honor. We
- 35:59Speaker 5: need to do it before the game. And Panthers were like,
- 36:01Speaker 5: I don't think that's a good idea. Yeah, okay, thanks,
- 36:03Speaker 5: but we're doing it. And so they did it. And
- 36:05Speaker 5: so it was just those type of things, like all
- 36:08Speaker 5: day long it just didn't go well, and then the
- 36:09Speaker 5: game and then the Cowboys had all the fans in
- 36:12Speaker 5: the stands and all that. So it was a frustrating
- 36:14Speaker 5: day for everybody. So, yeah, I had I had my
- 36:18Speaker 5: days there as well. Anyways, I'm looking for you. Yeah, yeah,
- 36:22Speaker 5: the bat is are a little different now, hopefully they're
- 36:24Speaker 5: a little bit more sturdier, but like I could probably there, yeah,
- 36:29Speaker 5: not ripping it off. Yeah, they the cops were involved
- 36:32Speaker 5: and all that and Yeah.
- 36:33Speaker 4: It's funny. I guess funny. Now, do you have any
- 36:37Speaker 4: stories about well, you know.
- 36:38Speaker 2: Matter, I've been there once. I don't have any.
- 36:41Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, it doesn't matter that we don't want. This
- 36:44Speaker 5: team is not a look ahead type of team. I mean,
- 36:47Speaker 5: and how can you can you look anywhere other than
- 36:50Speaker 5: the forty nine ers? Did you watch the forty nine
- 36:51Speaker 5: ers play the Chiefs?
- 36:52Speaker 2: I did?
- 36:52Speaker 5: What what's your take from there? I know you said
- 36:55Speaker 5: a little bit, but I mean I said this before
- 36:57Speaker 5: you got on the Chiefs. I think their defense so underrated.
- 37:01Speaker 5: They're so good. Chris Jones is so dynamic. But do
- 37:05Speaker 5: you think that they're still going to have a running attack.
- 37:08Speaker 5: It's gonna hurt. I mean, that's gonna be problematic for
- 37:10Speaker 5: the calendar.
- 37:10Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't watch that game, and and and think
- 37:14Speaker 2: differently of San Francisco as far as as it pertains
- 37:16Speaker 2: to us. Like Kansas City's defense even last year and
- 37:19Speaker 2: the year before, they had been one of those defenses
- 37:21Speaker 2: where it's like, no, this is actually defensive team. You're
- 37:23Speaker 2: looking at Mahons and Kelsey, but you look at Chris Jones,
- 37:26Speaker 2: you look at the secondary and all that, and they
- 37:28Speaker 2: play really well. So yes, they're still going to be
- 37:30Speaker 2: able to run run the football. I think we have
- 37:33Speaker 2: to show that we're able to stop it and they're
- 37:35Speaker 2: always going to be able to find somebody to do it. Now,
- 37:37Speaker 2: would they, you know, miraculously get healthy. It's possible next
- 37:41Speaker 2: week that everybody buckles up so they can make sure
- 37:43Speaker 2: that they go because they got handled last night. They did.
- 37:47Speaker 5: I think deebo I would have be surprised if he
- 37:49Speaker 5: doesn't play. But I don't think Christian Jaffrey's coming back.
- 37:52Speaker 2: I don't think. I don't think you was gonna come
- 37:54Speaker 2: back either. But it's gonna be a heavy dose of
- 37:56Speaker 2: if Debo plays, heavy dose, heavy dose of Trent Williams
- 38:00Speaker 2: running running the ball around here. Yeah, a heavy dose
- 38:02Speaker 2: of all that. And I think until we stop it, yeah,
- 38:05Speaker 2: it's going to be the.
- 38:06Speaker 5: Same because it's that type of offense. It doesn't really
- 38:09Speaker 5: matter who the backs are. It's about the Cowboys communicating,
- 38:12Speaker 5: being you know, being right in their gaps on defense
- 38:14Speaker 5: and all that kind of stuff that it didn't really
- 38:16Speaker 5: matter who the back is. I mean, they've got to
- 38:19Speaker 5: make sure the scheme is good. Let's get another caller
- 38:21Speaker 5: before we go to a break here Rick in Massachusetts, Ricky, Nick, how.
- 38:27Speaker 11: You doing good?
- 38:27Speaker 4: How are you doing?
- 38:29Speaker 11: Hey, Danny, how you doing too?
- 38:31Speaker 2: I'm good, Rick? How about you?
- 38:32Speaker 10: So all right?
- 38:33Speaker 11: Big big Cowboys fan, also a big Survivor and Challenge fan.
- 38:39Speaker 11: So great to see you on both those shows.
- 38:42Speaker 2: Appreciated, appreciate you.
- 38:45Speaker 11: But you know, I'm positives here. It's just sorry about
- 38:49Speaker 11: the loss to Arkansas, to La Shoot Nick.
- 38:54Speaker 4: Yeah too next time.
- 38:57Speaker 11: So just just to take a check in and say
- 39:00Speaker 11: hello and hopefully we'll see what else. A week agoes
- 39:04Speaker 11: in San Francisco. Let you get there and talk.
- 39:08Speaker 2: Thanks. It's starting to fit you a little better as
- 39:11Speaker 2: you get, as you break into.
- 39:13Speaker 5: You know, like if this wasn't so dark purple, I
- 39:17Speaker 5: could wear this like underneath, like like my suit, like
- 39:20Speaker 5: basically be like a body just wear. I think, Yeah,
- 39:25Speaker 5: this is exactly that is. I haven't really taken a
- 39:29Speaker 5: breath in like twelve minutes.
- 39:31Speaker 2: Now.
- 39:32Speaker 5: Let's that's cool that he mentioned that about Survivor and
- 39:35Speaker 5: the Challenge. Obviously, Danny played seven.
- 39:38Speaker 2: Eight years six five here one.
- 39:41Speaker 5: Six years in the league, but also known known for
- 39:45Speaker 5: your your time on Survivor forty one.
- 39:48Speaker 2: More more so now Survivor because there's no helmet on
- 39:51Speaker 2: and people can see.
- 39:52Speaker 4: You can see all that.
- 39:53Speaker 5: Yeah, and uh, and I would imagine from from what
- 39:56Speaker 5: I've heard and I saw some of the show that
- 39:58Speaker 5: you were kind of like you were, you were kind
- 40:01Speaker 5: of the level headed one there on the show.
- 40:04Speaker 2: Yeah, no drama, no drama, no drama, just kind of
- 40:06Speaker 2: you know, laid back, let everybody else kind of fight
- 40:08Speaker 2: each other and let's see where I can fit in
- 40:10Speaker 2: once that all played out.
- 40:12Speaker 5: And I know you're a fan of I'm not. You're
- 40:13Speaker 5: not going to say anything bad about Survivor, But I mean,
- 40:16Speaker 5: what is it about the show that maybe fans don't
- 40:19Speaker 5: realize that, you know, maybe how it's edited or something
- 40:22Speaker 5: like that. Is there something kind of misperception there?
- 40:25Speaker 2: Yeah? What the producers are trying to tell a story, right,
- 40:29Speaker 2: So whatever story is more most compelling, that's the story
- 40:33Speaker 2: they're going to tell. And it's not always accurate. From
- 40:36Speaker 2: from our perspective as players, is like, oh, they left
- 40:38Speaker 2: that out. That was an hour conversation and they just
- 40:40Speaker 2: kind of clipped it out to make it fit the story.
- 40:43Speaker 2: So a lot of the stuff you see, we look
- 40:45Speaker 2: at it and say, that's not really how it happened.
- 40:48Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, right, context. Okay, we got to take a
- 40:50Speaker 5: quick break. You can join us if you want it.
- 40:52Speaker 5: If you want to get back, that's fine too. We're
- 40:53Speaker 5: gonna take a quick break. We'll be right back to
- 40:54Speaker 5: answer at least one more call.

- 42:45Speaker 2: and under.
- 42:45Speaker 5: You know you can take a break from that, all right.
- 42:47Speaker 5: I'll try to get two calls in quickly. Here Lester
- 42:49Speaker 5: and Minnesota Lester.
- 42:50Speaker 4: What's up?
- 42:52Speaker 6: Hey? How you doing?
- 42:53Speaker 14: Hey?
- 42:54Speaker 6: What's up?
- 42:55Speaker 2: What's going on he.
- 42:57Speaker 10: Again, as I've been saying for the longest, we are
- 43:02Speaker 10: not going to be very good unless we have a
- 43:04Speaker 10: very good at least good to very good offense and
- 43:08Speaker 10: defensive line at the same time.
- 43:11Speaker 14: Now we can run.
- 43:13Speaker 10: The ball if we have a very good offensive line,
- 43:15Speaker 10: too great, and we can stop to run if we
- 43:18Speaker 10: have to build both together. Not one year we have
- 43:24Speaker 10: a good, great offensive line and defense line is okay,
- 43:26Speaker 10: and it's okay, so the offensive score a lot, but
- 43:29Speaker 10: the defense can't really stop anybody too much. They can.
- 43:33Speaker 10: You know, we had a good interception a couple of
- 43:36Speaker 10: years ago with all that that was good and the line,
- 43:40Speaker 10: but the line got to be undisciplined because they were
- 43:43Speaker 10: out of their gaps and whatever. You know, we need
- 43:46Speaker 10: a good offensive and defensive line built from there and
- 43:51Speaker 10: then we can go from there. And that's all I
- 43:53Speaker 10: have to say. We should be at in de San
- 43:55Speaker 10: Francisco if we run the ball more. We have to
- 43:58Speaker 10: figure out a way to do that. Yeah, I don't
- 44:01Speaker 10: know how, but we gotta figure out the way.
- 44:03Speaker 5: Thanks a lot, thanks, Lester. I mean I hear people
- 44:07Speaker 5: say that run the ball more. You need to run
- 44:08Speaker 5: the ball better because if you're run the ball better.
- 44:10Speaker 5: You can run the ball more, but you don't just
- 44:12Speaker 5: run it on get one yard and then get two
- 44:15Speaker 5: yards and then throw it and you're like, why don't
- 44:16Speaker 5: you running the ball? I mean, you have to run
- 44:18Speaker 5: it effectively. You can't just run it. But yeah, this
- 44:20Speaker 5: would be a great test for the offense and defensive
- 44:22Speaker 5: line because they've been bullied by the forty nine ers,
- 44:25Speaker 5: seems like when they played them in these type of games.
- 44:27Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think, just to kind of go back
- 44:29Speaker 2: into what he was talking about, I don't think you
- 44:31Speaker 2: have to have a really good offensive line and really
- 44:33Speaker 2: good defensive line at the same time. I go back
- 44:35Speaker 2: to twenty sixteen and then also twenty fourteen, right where
- 44:39Speaker 2: you had this offensive line that was feared by everybody,
- 44:42Speaker 2: and your defense was it was decent, right, but you
- 44:45Speaker 2: had an opportunity to want to hold the ball and
- 44:47Speaker 2: then play lay from the head and take leaking and
- 44:49Speaker 2: then they could pass rush. So you don't need both
- 44:51Speaker 2: of them to be great. You need one of them
- 44:53Speaker 2: to be okay, right, you need you could take a
- 44:55Speaker 2: really good one. Which one is that going to be?
- 44:57Speaker 2: I prefer to be offense.
- 44:58Speaker 5: I've always said you got to have uh to be
- 45:00Speaker 5: a good team, you got to have something that you
- 45:02Speaker 5: do that's just great, phenomenal, And I don't think it's
- 45:07Speaker 5: I don't think kicking fifty yard field goals is going
- 45:10Speaker 5: to be good enough to carry You gotta have something
- 45:12Speaker 5: better than that.
- 45:13Speaker 2: Well, I think the fact that you have like you're
- 45:15Speaker 2: now you know that you're that good at kicking six
- 45:17Speaker 2: of the yardist is telling you something about the row.
- 45:19Speaker 5: Right, you're not even getting close enough. All right, let's
- 45:21Speaker 5: go to Bruce and Houston. Danny, if you've been to
- 45:23Speaker 5: Houston for a few times.
- 45:25Speaker 19: Bruce in Houston, Hey, Hey, Nick and Danny, thanks for
- 45:30Speaker 19: taking my call. Danny is always good to listen to.
- 45:33Speaker 19: You got you got the pipes there for radio, not
- 45:36Speaker 19: like your co hosts there, but but no, you got
- 45:41Speaker 19: some nice pipes there, Danny. A couple of call callers
- 45:45Speaker 19: Ago stole my thunder a little bit.
- 45:46Speaker 15: Nick.
- 45:47Speaker 19: I know you're not a big fan of this, but
- 45:50Speaker 19: Micah Parsons is our best player and he's our herschel walker.
- 45:54Speaker 19: If you will, if you could get now, when is
- 45:58Speaker 19: the deadline and there's two more games?
- 45:59Speaker 5: We yeah, November the fifth, is what Chris told us
- 46:02Speaker 5: earlier November fifth, and I'm.
- 46:05Speaker 19: Look, I hope we beat San Francisco. It would do
- 46:08Speaker 19: wonders for this team. But unfortunately, you only have one
- 46:11Speaker 19: good win this year and that's against Pittsburgh. Cleveland is terrible.
- 46:15Speaker 19: At first we thought it was a good win, but
- 46:17Speaker 19: it's not. And the Giants of the Giants. But I'm
- 46:21Speaker 19: a realist. I'm not a gloom and doom. I've been
- 46:23Speaker 19: Capitol fans in sixty five, so there's always hope. But
- 46:27Speaker 19: by the same token, if you could take that one player,
- 46:30Speaker 19: you know, since we've you know Seed he deserved his contract.
- 46:33Speaker 19: I don't think that Dak did, but that's just my
- 46:36Speaker 19: personal opinion. But if you got someone that you could
- 46:38Speaker 19: trade and get to, I wouldn't trade him to Detroit.
- 46:41Speaker 19: I think that's stupid. I'm trading to an AFC team
- 46:44Speaker 19: that you're not gonna have to see unless it's in
- 46:46Speaker 19: the super Bowl, you know what I mean, Because he
- 46:47Speaker 19: would come back to haunt you. I know it would.
- 46:49Speaker 19: But if you could get two number ones, and then
- 46:52Speaker 19: with that maybe second number one the following year of
- 46:55Speaker 19: whatever team, and you're able to parlay that with yours
- 46:59Speaker 19: and move up to the top and get a stut
- 47:02Speaker 19: quarterback could sit one year, you know, because supposedly they
- 47:05Speaker 19: can get ad contract in twenty twenty seven. If he
- 47:09Speaker 19: continues to go this way, and unfortunately, you know, it's
- 47:14Speaker 19: been that way. I hope it changes. But anyway, all.
- 47:17Speaker 4: Right, good show, Thanks for listening to you, guys. Thank you.
- 47:20Speaker 2: All right.
- 47:20Speaker 5: Uh yeah, we're kind of pressed against time here, and
- 47:23Speaker 5: obviously we're not talking about hypothetical trades.
- 47:27Speaker 2: Really.
- 47:27Speaker 5: I I'll say this about the whole thing about Michael Parsons,
- 47:31Speaker 5: and I believe if you were to do it, it
- 47:34Speaker 5: better be an AFC team, especially the team maybe you've
- 47:36Speaker 5: already played this year, because if you really believe though,
- 47:39Speaker 5: he could come back and haunt you, if he's that good,
- 47:43Speaker 5: why are we trading him.
- 47:44Speaker 4: I mean, if he's that good where he could haunt
- 47:46Speaker 4: you and be.
- 47:46Speaker 5: That good type of player to just go and wreck
- 47:49Speaker 5: the game, then then he could wreck other games for you.
- 47:52Speaker 4: I'm just I'm just not there yet to do that. Listen,
- 47:56Speaker 4: you still got to use one of those picks and
- 47:57Speaker 4: then hope to get another one.
- 47:59Speaker 5: You got lucky that nobody thought he could rush the
- 48:01Speaker 5: pastor if people thought you could rush the pastor we
- 48:04Speaker 5: would have been passed the second or third pick.
- 48:06Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not on the Michael Parsons trade train. Like
- 48:09Speaker 2: I said, we're three and three for everything that's happened
- 48:13Speaker 2: you three and three and then you can see, like weekend,
- 48:15Speaker 2: week out, how quickly things change. Michael Parsons is going
- 48:18Speaker 2: to be somebody that you need on your team if
- 48:20Speaker 2: you want to make one of those New York Giant
- 48:22Speaker 2: runs where they go wildcard to the Super Bowl, like
- 48:24Speaker 2: you need your key pieces. And that's a d L
- 48:27Speaker 2: all that's Micah, that's DAK and that CD. Yeah, all right,
- 48:30Speaker 2: love it all right. Danny McCray joins the show today.
- 48:34Speaker 2: I'm gonna move this over here somewhere all right, here
- 48:37Speaker 2: you go. You look good man, Yeah, no, I do not,
- 48:41Speaker 2: you know it don't look good?
- 48:42Speaker 12: Right?
- 48:42Speaker 5: No, no, no, I can't. I can't feel myself at all.
- 48:46Speaker 5: I might have lost five pounds just by wearing this
- 48:49Speaker 5: l Yeah, thank you. Now we had made the bet
- 48:52Speaker 5: earlier in the in the week. We did this last
- 48:55Speaker 5: year too, but this is the first year. Is actually
- 48:56Speaker 5: one the jersey, which is good. This is actually Danny
- 48:58Speaker 5: mccray's game one jersey in Super versus too. I was
- 49:04Speaker 5: gonna say, like Troy or somebody where y'all only wear
- 49:07Speaker 5: this jersey like once or twice a year.
- 49:08Speaker 4: This is like the fourth time it's ever been worn.
- 49:11Speaker 4: Look at this.
- 49:12Speaker 2: Yeah it looks it looks brand new, like they.
- 49:14Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, no, But congrats on LSU with the win.
- 49:18Speaker 5: They were they were the better team for sure in
- 49:20Speaker 5: that game. Again, it was it was closer, but they
- 49:23Speaker 5: didn't make enough plays.
- 49:25Speaker 4: It was close.
- 49:25Speaker 5: In the third quarter, they made one crazy play that
- 49:27Speaker 5: changed the whole game, and then they weren't good enough
- 49:30Speaker 5: to come back. But I mean, they weren't good enough.
- 49:32Speaker 5: He gotta be perfect, gotta be perfect, and again they certainly,
- 49:34Speaker 5: and we just and we and we took off. So
- 49:36Speaker 5: thirty thirty four ten, it was. It was a blowout
- 49:40Speaker 5: at the end, but you know, there was a there
- 49:41Speaker 5: was a just defense is.
- 49:43Speaker 2: Not really that good and we held you out of
- 49:44Speaker 2: ten points. That's all I know.
- 49:45Speaker 5: Yeah. The quarterback not really that good either, but they
- 49:49Speaker 5: thirty four.
- 49:50Speaker 4: He didn't get thirty far.
- 49:51Speaker 5: All right, all right, Danny mccraye, good stuff joining the Cowboys.
- 49:56Speaker 5: Break will be here in a few minutes. I'm sure
