- 1:10Speaker 4: of call in and talk about some things, all right,
- 1:13Speaker 4: Eight aight A eight, five, five two two nine seven.
- 1:16Speaker 4: Let's let's talk Cowboys Commanders one more time. Cowboys gotta
- 1:20Speaker 4: get on the field and try to wrap this thing
- 1:22Speaker 4: up the right way. See if they can get to
- 1:24Speaker 4: eight to nine and sweep Washington. I think the Commanders
- 1:28Speaker 4: will be playing they they they need to win.
- 1:30Speaker 2: They need to get out.
- 1:31Speaker 4: Of that seventh spot and get to the sixth seed
- 1:34Speaker 4: or stay in the sixth seed. I guess if that's
- 1:36Speaker 4: where they are, that's that's an important position for them
- 1:40Speaker 4: in the playoffs. So I would imagine they're gonna give
- 1:43Speaker 4: their their best to try to win the game. And
- 1:45Speaker 4: dan Quinn doesn't want to come back here and get
- 1:47Speaker 4: swept by the Cowboys. But you know, see what the
- 1:49Speaker 4: Cowboys can do to try to beat Washington for a
- 1:53Speaker 4: second time this year. All right, we'll go to the
- 1:55Speaker 4: phone lines. Carolina. He's still driving all over the place.
- 1:59Speaker 4: He's in Arlington right now, Arlington, Texas, Carolina.
- 2:02Speaker 2: What's up there? We go?
- 2:05Speaker 5: That's left week.
- 2:07Speaker 2: That's right, man, that's right. Appreciate it.
- 2:09Speaker 5: Hey, I forgot about my.
- 2:12Speaker 4: Don't cause don't cause any wrecks over there by the
- 2:14Speaker 4: stadium or anything. We're are you just passing through? You're
- 2:17Speaker 4: going to stop and go to the game.
- 2:19Speaker 5: I'm passing through, my man, all right?
- 2:22Speaker 2: All right?
- 2:23Speaker 5: Well to make that money, man, you know how that goes?
- 2:25Speaker 4: Yep, I hear you, I hear you. All right, Well,
- 2:28Speaker 4: what you got, man, what's on your mind?
- 2:30Speaker 5: Well, we're all going to start off with.
- 2:32Speaker 6: Man.
- 2:32Speaker 5: I just I hope that the Cowboys can give us
- 2:36Speaker 5: a sweep that will make the end of the season.
- 2:39Speaker 5: That would just you know, fish it off just right,
- 2:41Speaker 5: especially after that blowout, And I wanted to agree with
- 2:45Speaker 5: the other callers, like, I just want to see some
- 2:47Speaker 5: some new guys in there, especially because you know what
- 2:49Speaker 5: he got rid of Zeque or he left. How we
- 2:51Speaker 5: want to see it. I would love to see if
- 2:53Speaker 5: they give Deuce Bawn the ball, Like, I just I
- 2:57Speaker 5: want to see him get out there and get it
- 3:00Speaker 5: least at least touch I mean ten, ten touches, you
- 3:05Speaker 5: know what I mean.
- 3:06Speaker 7: They need to let him get.
- 3:07Speaker 5: Into a rhythm. Yeah. Outside of that, man.
- 3:11Speaker 4: Yeah, but that's a lot of that's on him, you
- 3:13Speaker 4: know what I mean. I mean, because you you you
- 3:16Speaker 4: get the ball and you get one yard, and then
- 3:19Speaker 4: you get two yards. Then on third and seven they
- 3:21Speaker 4: throw it incomplete passive. You're not in a rhythm, and
- 3:23Speaker 4: but you didn't really.
- 3:24Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
- 3:25Speaker 4: Like, he's gonna have to be productive. Running backs have
- 3:27Speaker 4: to be productive to keep being productive. I mean, that's
- 3:31Speaker 4: that's kind of how how it goes, and so you.
- 3:33Speaker 5: Know it's as taken down.
- 3:37Speaker 4: Make players miss, you know you're gonna get an opportunity
- 3:40Speaker 4: to do that. He's he's performed well in the preseason,
- 3:43Speaker 4: in the second half of preseason games when those guys
- 3:45Speaker 4: probably did not make the NFL roster. He hasn't had
- 3:50Speaker 4: you know, he hasn't really made a lot of consistent
- 3:52Speaker 4: plays when he's had opportunities. But you can say, not
- 3:55Speaker 4: in the right spot, not in the right type of plays,
- 3:58Speaker 4: get creative with him, whatever you want to say it.
- 4:00Speaker 2: I'm for it. I think I kind of know what
- 4:04Speaker 2: we have out of him.
- 4:05Speaker 4: But you know what, if you guys still want to
- 4:08Speaker 4: see it, I'm for it. You know, let's let's see,
- 4:11Speaker 4: let's prove me wrong. But this would be a good
- 4:14Speaker 4: opportunity I think for him to do.
- 4:15Speaker 5: That, A hundred percent agree on it. Just use him
- 4:19Speaker 5: the right way. If they could use them the right way,
- 4:22Speaker 5: I can see him being prodestic because you know, cowboys
- 4:25Speaker 5: are known for having guys and not knowing what to
- 4:27Speaker 5: do with Dan Boom. He goes somewhere and says, oh,
- 4:30Speaker 5: he's a star. He'd been a star it's just about
- 4:33Speaker 5: how you're gonna use him in the creativity. And also
- 4:37Speaker 5: I just want to give my score for the day.
- 4:39Speaker 5: I'm really not one hundred percent sure how this game
- 4:41Speaker 5: is going to go, but I'm rooting for my Cowboys always.
- 4:45Speaker 5: I'm gonna do a Nate Newton and I'm gonna go
- 4:48Speaker 5: twenty to.
- 4:49Speaker 2: Nineteen, twenty to nineteen, all right, twenty nineteen?
- 4:53Speaker 4: All right, Well, safe travels on the road there, Carolina.
- 4:57Speaker 4: As you head, I guess head back that way, head
- 5:00Speaker 4: back towards the East coast.
- 5:03Speaker 2: Appreciate the call and wait to start us off the
- 5:05Speaker 2: right way.
- 5:06Speaker 5: I had to make sure I had to make sure
- 5:08Speaker 5: I got I got that call in for the last
- 5:10Speaker 5: weekly show. I had to make sure I got in there.
- 5:12Speaker 8: Yep.
- 5:12Speaker 2: Definitely. All right, Well, I appreciate that. Is Happy New
- 5:15Speaker 2: Year to you.
- 5:16Speaker 4: There's probably others with that same mindset, so let's keep
- 5:18Speaker 4: this thing going. Champ in Nebraska is next up, Champ.
- 5:23Speaker 6: What's good morning?
- 5:25Speaker 2: How are you?

- 5:29Speaker 2: Good? Good? What we got?
- 5:32Speaker 6: Well, I don't have a whole lot of football stuff,
- 5:34Speaker 6: but I just wanted to call in, get in this
- 5:36Speaker 6: last regular season show, and thank you, thank Chris, thank Derek,
- 5:41Speaker 6: thank all you guys on these podcasts, especially this one.
- 5:45Speaker 6: Take chance, but you guys give us the stands to
- 5:49Speaker 6: get on here. Be annoying, be upsetting, be happy, ramp
- 5:55Speaker 6: rave and deal with it. Correct us, teach us. It
- 6:01Speaker 6: means a lot to us, those guys, all of us
- 6:03Speaker 6: that listen regularly daily, and you know, meeting some of
- 6:09Speaker 6: the people you have over the air is awesome. The
- 6:12Speaker 6: Storyliners community is really cool. I haven't been able to
- 6:16Speaker 6: get on there. Wednesdays don't work quite as well for
- 6:18Speaker 6: me as Sursday as yet, but man, hearing all these
- 6:21Speaker 6: people and their knowledge, I never would have known had
- 6:25Speaker 6: you guys not put this show out there. So I
- 6:28Speaker 6: just wanted to thank you guys for that.
- 6:30Speaker 9: I want to say.
- 6:31Speaker 6: It sucks that we're finishing this season this week, which
- 6:35Speaker 6: was going a little further, but that's okay. I'm gonna
- 6:37Speaker 6: load up on my hopium and I hope that my
- 6:40Speaker 6: Cowboys reload and we come back next year however, new coach,
- 6:44Speaker 6: same coach, new players, some old players, and we make
- 6:48Speaker 6: that run that we all want. I'm gonna give you
- 6:51Speaker 6: a prediction. I don't know how, but I can't tick
- 6:54Speaker 6: against my guys. I'm thinking Cowboys pull this one out
- 6:58Speaker 6: twenty two one somehow. Thank you, guys, Thank you. We'll
- 7:03Speaker 6: talk to you in the off season. God bless y'all.
- 7:05Speaker 4: Thanks Champ, appreciate that. And that's really nice, nice thing
- 7:10Speaker 4: that you said. And and and you know, it's it's
- 7:13Speaker 4: been great. I love having U the opportunity to talk
- 7:16Speaker 4: to you guys, and and and given the opportunity back
- 7:19Speaker 4: for you guys to kind of, like you said, rant
- 7:21Speaker 4: rave whatever it is. That's what I like about what
- 7:25Speaker 4: Rob from Vegas says. You know, sometimes it's like the
- 7:28Speaker 4: same thing he tells his kids. You know, he's not
- 7:30Speaker 4: yelling at you, just yelling and and and that's what
- 7:33Speaker 4: this team has driven us to do this year. It's just,
- 7:37Speaker 4: you know, it's it's been it's been a year. It
- 7:40Speaker 4: just man, when you when you stop and think of
- 7:43Speaker 4: all the things that have happened this year, just how
- 7:47Speaker 4: unique it is. And and it's it's unfortunate that it's
- 7:50Speaker 4: the record is what it is that you'd like to
- 7:52Speaker 4: look back at twenty twenty four for the better, for
- 7:55Speaker 4: better reasons, you know, But when you think of all
- 7:58Speaker 4: that was the year we're going to be ten years down.
- 8:01Speaker 2: The road going. That was the year that.
- 8:05Speaker 4: Whatever Trayvon Diggs came out of the locker room started
- 8:08Speaker 4: yelling out of reporters or got not really yelling because
- 8:11Speaker 4: Trayvon doesn't yell, but you know, just had a confrontation there.
- 8:16Speaker 4: Or the year that something fell from the stadium down
- 8:19Speaker 4: and luckily didn't hit anybody in I mean.
- 8:22Speaker 2: Or the sun.
- 8:23Speaker 4: Well, it won't be the year about the sun because
- 8:25Speaker 4: that's kind to be an every year thing probably, But still,
- 8:27Speaker 4: it's been a year. It's been a fun journey though
- 8:30Speaker 4: with you guys. We're not done. We're still we got
- 8:32Speaker 4: a lot to go here. Let's go with Brian in
- 8:35Speaker 4: Kansas City. Brian, what's up man?
- 8:38Speaker 8: Good morning, sir.
- 8:39Speaker 2: Good morning.
- 8:40Speaker 4: How are you Do you have a one point prediction?
- 8:42Speaker 4: Because that's what seems to be the.
- 8:44Speaker 2: Theme so far.
- 8:46Speaker 8: Oh man, you know the hard part is you gotta
- 8:49Speaker 8: I gotta know who's playing. Yeah, you know they're not
- 8:52Speaker 8: they're not playing anything. You know what you said about
- 8:55Speaker 8: you think Lance might be the guy.
- 8:57Speaker 2: Yeah, I could tell you who's not playing.
- 9:01Speaker 8: Who's that?
- 9:02Speaker 4: Well, you got Dak, you got Zach, you got Tank,
- 9:05Speaker 4: you got tray Von Diggs, you got over shown, you
- 9:08Speaker 4: got cd uh, I don't know.
- 9:11Speaker 8: Sorry, Oh, that's gonna be the thing. The thing you
- 9:14Speaker 8: just said about this, this is what we're gonna talk
- 9:16Speaker 8: about in five years about this was the year. That's
- 9:18Speaker 8: gonna be the thing right there, I tell.
- 9:21Speaker 4: You, the Cowboys are going to announce the winner of
- 9:24Speaker 4: an ed Block Courage Award. It goes to players that
- 9:27Speaker 4: have returned this year from injuries last year and and uh,
- 9:32Speaker 4: and there is a winner. It'll be announced later. But
- 9:35Speaker 4: next year, boy, that's that's gonna be a battle right there.
- 9:39Speaker 4: All the players that have been hurt this year have
- 9:41Speaker 4: a chance to come back and win that award. It's
- 9:44Speaker 4: not funny, actually, but I mean that's that's the reality
- 9:46Speaker 4: of it is that there's gonna be a lot of
- 9:48Speaker 4: candidates for it for next year.
- 9:51Speaker 2: But it's been been a year. All right, all right, Brian,
- 9:53Speaker 2: what do you got?
- 9:54Speaker 8: Well, you know, I was thinking the you know, with
- 9:57Speaker 8: with what we just said, you know, all the injury.
- 9:59Speaker 8: First of all, let me stop for a second and
- 10:01Speaker 8: just echo what I'm sure everybody else is going to say,
- 10:04Speaker 8: and I've already heard on this call. We just want
- 10:07Speaker 8: to thank you for what you do for us being
- 10:09Speaker 8: here every day, you and Chris.
- 10:12Speaker 10: You know, the Monday night games, when you're there at
- 10:14Speaker 10: you know, wiping the sleep out of your eyes and
- 10:17Speaker 10: propping your chin up on a gallon of coffee, you know,
- 10:20Speaker 10: trying to get.
- 10:21Speaker 8: Through the day and listen to people holler at you
- 10:24Speaker 8: and and you know all that sort of thing. So
- 10:27Speaker 8: we do. We just want to say thank you, thank you.
- 10:30Speaker 8: That is just so important to us and to me personally.
- 10:33Speaker 8: I've just really are appreciated what you guys do for us.
- 10:37Speaker 4: Thank thank you, Brian and Brian. Brian actually sent me
- 10:40Speaker 4: a Christmas card here to the office.
- 10:41Speaker 2: Thank you for that.
- 10:42Speaker 4: I appreciate that. We love gifts. We love we love
- 10:45Speaker 4: gifts for sure.
- 10:46Speaker 8: Absolutely well. You know, in order to get on the show,
- 10:50Speaker 8: I had to stuff Chris's card full of what of burgers?
- 10:54Speaker 8: You know, I had to just shove all those all
- 10:56Speaker 8: those coupons and gift cards in there. So that's you know,
- 11:00Speaker 8: Chris said, you know, I'm good to go now for
- 11:02Speaker 8: next year. I think, right, Chris, you know listening.
- 11:05Speaker 2: To us, Yeah, I'm listening, Yes, you're you're good to go.
- 11:09Speaker 8: So I'm just kidding.
- 11:11Speaker 7: I'm just kidding.
- 11:11Speaker 8: I didn't try to bribe Chris, just so everybody knows, uh,
- 11:16Speaker 8: you know, for for this game. I think this is
- 11:18Speaker 8: just you know, what we've been saying for the last
- 11:20Speaker 8: couple of weeks. Who can we see? You know, I'm
- 11:24Speaker 8: hoping Tyler Geiton goes out there. I'm really just you know,
- 11:28Speaker 8: I don't want to see any more Tuma Doga.
- 11:30Speaker 2: No, I get it.
- 11:31Speaker 4: And he's and Adoga is a better player, which is
- 11:34Speaker 4: which is not what we expected. But that's not the point.
- 11:37Speaker 4: It's a he is the definition right now. And this
- 11:40Speaker 4: is nothing bad about Adoga, but he is the definition
- 11:44Speaker 4: of a progress stopper. He's stopping progress for guys that
- 11:47Speaker 4: you really want to see down the road, guys like Geyton.
- 11:51Speaker 4: But but they did it because he's a better player.
- 11:53Speaker 4: He's a better option, you know. So I mean that's
- 11:57Speaker 4: I mean, Dak was a progress stopper to the Trey
- 11:59Speaker 4: Lan why because he was better?
- 12:01Speaker 2: I mean that, you know what I mean.
- 12:02Speaker 4: No one says it like that, but in this case,
- 12:05Speaker 4: you want getting to be out there. You want awesome
- 12:07Speaker 4: Richards to show what he can do. I'd rather see
- 12:10Speaker 4: awesome Richards get a little, you know, get some snaps,
- 12:13Speaker 4: because this is.
- 12:14Speaker 2: A game where a guy like Mingo.
- 12:18Speaker 4: Can catch three passes for fifty one yards, and then
- 12:21Speaker 4: you can get into the next season and go, hey,
- 12:23Speaker 4: you know there's something there or awesome. Richards had a
- 12:26Speaker 4: great game, shut people down, DU's fun had had four
- 12:29Speaker 4: catches for thirty two yards.
- 12:31Speaker 2: You know what I mean. It'd be that type of game.
- 12:33Speaker 4: So you know, this is not a meaningless game individually
- 12:37Speaker 4: for a lot of players.
- 12:39Speaker 8: No, I agree, And that's the other one that I
- 12:41Speaker 8: was thinking was Mingo. I really want to see something too.
- 12:45Speaker 4: Me too, because I was for the trade. All right, Brady,
- 12:49Speaker 4: you got anything else?
- 12:50Speaker 8: No, sir, that's it. Thank you, Thank you for everything,
- 12:52Speaker 8: and we'll talk to you. Who gets Wednesdays now you.
- 12:54Speaker 4: Said Wednesday Wednesday morning. I think we're going at nine
- 12:58Speaker 4: thirty in the morning, so that we could go to
- 13:00Speaker 4: about ten forty five, so we can go about our
- 13:02Speaker 4: fifteen minutes.
- 13:03Speaker 11: Rodge to that man.
- 13:04Speaker 8: Hey, we'll talk to you then, Thank you.
- 13:06Speaker 2: Sir, Thank you.
- 13:08Speaker 4: All right, and I'm gonna get some details before we
- 13:10Speaker 4: end this show, and after one of the breaks, I'll
- 13:12Speaker 4: get some details on what we're doing on Monday. We
- 13:15Speaker 4: have a show on Monday in the afternoon. So for
- 13:18Speaker 4: the next couple of weeks, because we do a TV show,
- 13:20Speaker 4: we'll do one on Monday for the next two weeks.
- 13:23Speaker 4: Our regular time is Wednesday. We are doing Wednesday shows
- 13:26Speaker 4: as well. All right, let's and I'll say this one
- 13:29Speaker 4: thing from Brian. When you talk about the early mornings,
- 13:33Speaker 4: late night games, coming back all that, you know, I
- 13:36Speaker 4: speak for myself only on this, but win or lose,
- 13:40Speaker 4: great win at Pittsburgh coming back doing the show, or
- 13:45Speaker 4: tough loss to the Bengals and what happened there. Either way,
- 13:49Speaker 4: it's always it's always great to get this opportunity to
- 13:52Speaker 4: talk to you guys and hear what real fans have
- 13:56Speaker 4: to say. What are they thinking, what are they feeling,
- 13:58Speaker 4: what are they you know, mad about? Because I've been there,
- 14:02Speaker 4: I am a fan for sports like that. I've been
- 14:06Speaker 4: a fan like this. I know I know exactly what
- 14:08Speaker 4: you're thinking and feeling. So to be able to connect
- 14:11Speaker 4: like that is awesome.
- 14:12Speaker 6: Uh.
- 14:12Speaker 4: And it's it's not hard to go into work, even
- 14:16Speaker 4: if with on two hours sleep, not to be able
- 14:19Speaker 4: to come in and do shows like this. So it's
- 14:21Speaker 4: it's not really working. You know it's not not at all.
- 14:24Speaker 4: Let's go to Ali in Florida.
- 14:27Speaker 2: Good morning, sir, Good morning.
- 14:29Speaker 4: Speaking of people that send gifts, Ali, thank you so
- 14:32Speaker 4: much again for the awesome portraits that you sent. Appreciate that,
- 14:37Speaker 4: and uh, what do you got for us?
- 14:40Speaker 12: Okay, I got it. First of all, I appreciate you
- 14:43Speaker 12: and Chris. I have a shout out, and I have
- 14:49Speaker 12: a breaking news Ali's breaking news my news segment, and
- 14:53Speaker 12: then I hang up by listen all right, number one,
- 14:56Speaker 12: I totally agree with doctor Sunshine that you have the
- 15:00Speaker 12: most respectable fans that they choose their respect you and
- 15:04Speaker 12: Chris for all the hard work you do. And I
- 15:07Speaker 12: personally think you are the most important podcast because everybody
- 15:12Speaker 12: stop start copying you all the podcasts on Cowboys, they
- 15:18Speaker 12: just start trying taking a phone call. So so you
- 15:23Speaker 12: said that trend, you know, so they take they take
- 15:28Speaker 12: ten Ah.
- 15:31Speaker 2: I think one one show one time did get like
- 15:33Speaker 2: eleven calls in.
- 15:35Speaker 12: No, I'm telling you you you are the king. You
- 15:37Speaker 12: and a Chris are king of the podcast. And if
- 15:40Speaker 12: Message Jones ever get a chance to listen, he knows
- 15:45Speaker 12: he gets a direct insight to his fan base. Yeah,
- 15:49Speaker 12: the die hard coboy. So this is my breaking news.
- 15:53Speaker 12: I'm willing to bet with you for dinner for two,
- 15:57Speaker 12: either you you, Chris, or anybody you guys want to go.
- 16:01Speaker 12: I would rather you pick up your favorite restaurant in Dallas.
- 16:05Speaker 12: I pick up the gift gift cards so you can't
- 16:08Speaker 12: go eat together. So this is my breaking news. I
- 16:11Speaker 12: think coach McCarthy is coming back. I can. I don't
- 16:18Speaker 12: have no inside knowledge, but I think that already already
- 16:22Speaker 12: in the place since Tampa game. After Tampa, the Tampa
- 16:25Speaker 12: Bay game, Uh, the mister Jones contact them and that
- 16:32Speaker 12: because he's gonna deal with little McKay. But I think
- 16:37Speaker 12: Zimmer is going to be gone, and Al Harris is
- 16:42Speaker 12: gonna be a defensive coordinator. And Al Harris is a
- 16:46Speaker 12: Mike McCarty's guy. So and I hate to lose. I
- 16:50Speaker 12: would love to keep John Fossil. I learned so much
- 16:54Speaker 12: from Rob and I think personally I appreciate Rob. I
- 16:59Speaker 12: appreciate Randy. By the way, I don't know where Randy is.
- 17:03Speaker 12: He's gonna do an AVD just make sure he's okay.
- 17:06Speaker 12: And I did not all the storyliners.
- 17:10Speaker 7: But this is my question.
- 17:12Speaker 13: If Bill McKay to move on.
- 17:16Speaker 12: I was had an understanding he's the staff goes with him,
- 17:20Speaker 12: but they were on the taboy's payroll while they were scouting,
- 17:25Speaker 12: so he would have an access and inside information what
- 17:30Speaker 12: taboys they're gonna pick, and he's gonna take it to
- 17:33Speaker 12: the next team or hang over on this.
- 17:34Speaker 4: Love you brother, All right, thank you Talking about Will McClay.
- 17:40Speaker 4: It took me a second to figure out what you
- 17:41Speaker 4: were saying, Will McClay, if he goes to another team.
- 17:45Speaker 4: My understanding is that you know, he's he's trying to
- 17:50Speaker 4: see what the situation is. I don't think that's the
- 17:54Speaker 4: first domino. I think the first one is McCarthy. But
- 18:00Speaker 4: I think that, you know, just trying to see what
- 18:02Speaker 4: what what everything looks like here. But if if he goes,
- 18:07Speaker 4: if Will McClay would go to another team, I don't
- 18:10Speaker 4: know if I would worry about about that, about knowing
- 18:15Speaker 4: what the Cowboys strategy would be and all that, because
- 18:17Speaker 4: somebody else would be running the scouting department and and yeah,
- 18:23Speaker 4: he'd understand what Jerry and Steven like and want and
- 18:25Speaker 4: all that. But I mean I'm not too worried about that.
- 18:29Speaker 4: I mean, I mean he's not going to know every pick.
- 18:33Speaker 4: He's not going to He might know the strategy, but
- 18:36Speaker 4: it doesn't mean he's going to know the player or
- 18:37Speaker 4: know the pick and all that stuff, because he's going
- 18:39Speaker 4: to take some people with him. So again, thanks again,
- 18:42Speaker 4: a leave for the call, thank you for all the
- 18:44Speaker 4: other nice things that you said. Let's keep it going here,
- 18:47Speaker 4: Let's go to Robbie Kocoba, Florida.
- 18:52Speaker 8: Good.
- 18:53Speaker 2: How's it going.
- 18:54Speaker 8: It's great, man.
- 18:55Speaker 1: It was great to see your kids on and it
- 18:57Speaker 1: was great. Let my kids talk you guys.
- 18:59Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah you have.
- 19:01Speaker 8: You're very fortunate man.

- 19:11Speaker 4: They really love the microphone and the and the lights.
- 19:15Speaker 4: They want they want to have their own kids podcast
- 19:17Speaker 4: as well. So I don't know what kind of ratings
- 19:20Speaker 4: that would that would get, but yeah, they would, they
- 19:23Speaker 4: would definitely, they would love it for sure.
- 19:26Speaker 14: Oh they were.
- 19:27Speaker 1: They were outstanding. Hey I will echo, but Allie and
- 19:31Speaker 1: Randy and Irene and everybody else always says how great
- 19:35Speaker 1: you guys are. I'll just leave it there. But all
- 19:37Speaker 1: the things today, said I I echo, thankfulheartedly. I'll ask
- 19:42Speaker 1: for two stories you got time from One about Dan Campbell.
- 19:47Speaker 8: You were there when he was.
- 19:48Speaker 1: There sight end for us for a long time, well
- 19:50Speaker 1: a couple of years.
- 19:51Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 19:52Speaker 1: And then a story you pitching the idea for storylines
- 19:57Speaker 1: to Derek.
- 19:58Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, you know, mind telling us that?
- 20:01Speaker 9: All right?
- 20:01Speaker 4: Well, uh, Dan camp thank you, Robbie, appreciate it. Thanks
- 20:05Speaker 4: for the call. And I know I know we'll be
- 20:07Speaker 4: hearing from you when we when we go to weekly shows.
- 20:09Speaker 4: I'm sure you'll be there, uh calling as well. I'll
- 20:13Speaker 4: tell a couple of stories before we go to break.
- 20:15Speaker 4: Let's see Dan Campbell, have you heard the story? This
- 20:18Speaker 4: is a good one, guys, Dan Campbell. The Cowboys were
- 20:23Speaker 4: playing a game, close game, I mean back and forth,
- 20:26Speaker 4: back and forth, comes down to the end and and
- 20:29Speaker 4: Dan Campbell's coaching on the other team and he has
- 20:33Speaker 4: a chance to tie the game, but he says, no, no,
- 20:35Speaker 4: we're gonna go for two. We're gonna go for this
- 20:37Speaker 4: crazy play. We're gonna trick them. We're gonna tell him, oh, look,
- 20:40Speaker 4: this guy's eligible, but this guy's over here, and he's
- 20:42Speaker 4: gonna oh yeah, hide and seek over here, and then
- 20:44Speaker 4: they're gonna play. They're gonna score it, and then it's
- 20:46Speaker 4: not gonna count, and now they're gonna kick the extra point.
- 20:48Speaker 4: But wait, he's gonna decide Nah, nah, screw that, I'm
- 20:52Speaker 4: gonna go for it again.
- 20:53Speaker 2: And he throws it again and it's a touchdown, but no,
- 20:56Speaker 2: there's a penalty. Now we're gonna do.
- 20:57Speaker 4: It again, and he's a lost. But who's got who's
- 21:02Speaker 4: laughing now? I mean, like their team's really good. But
- 21:04Speaker 4: that's the only Dan Campbell's story I really have. Just
- 21:07Speaker 4: this is the time he decided I hate the kicker.
- 21:09Speaker 4: I don't want to kick this. I want to go win,
- 21:11Speaker 4: and he lost. I think Dan Campbell is a is
- 21:14Speaker 4: a great coach. I think I really think what he's
- 21:17Speaker 4: doing there in Detroit is outstanding. I'll say this, though,
- 21:22Speaker 4: that mentality comes back to bite you playing to win,
- 21:25Speaker 4: playing to win, playing to win. Sometimes if you play
- 21:28Speaker 4: not to lose, you you also win. So it's it's
- 21:32Speaker 4: it's bitten him at times. But who could argue with
- 21:36Speaker 4: what they're doing right now and just that that team is,
- 21:39Speaker 4: you know, buying in, they're playing like him. He wasn't
- 21:42Speaker 4: here long enough to have a big story. I know,
- 21:45Speaker 4: he's a trivia question. Who's the only tight end to
- 21:47Speaker 4: start over Jason Witten? It would be Dan Campbell. So
- 21:49Speaker 4: I don't have a lot of stories there. And then
- 21:51Speaker 4: than the one about Derek, I mean, I don't remember
- 21:55Speaker 4: exactly how it went down. I think it was something
- 21:58Speaker 4: i'd kind of talked to him, you know, Derek and
- 22:01Speaker 4: I sit next to each other on you at the
- 22:03Speaker 4: games and stuff like that. I think it was one
- 22:05Speaker 4: of those floated ideas and then let's talk about it,
- 22:07Speaker 4: and let's talk about all of the podcasts, and here's
- 22:09Speaker 4: an idea that I've you know, I've had and you know,
- 22:13Speaker 4: just just kind of it's been in the works for
- 22:16Speaker 4: a while.
- 22:16Speaker 2: And so really when.
- 22:17Speaker 4: It got down to it, like, hey, this is this
- 22:19Speaker 4: is what we're thinking, this is how it would go,
- 22:21Speaker 4: this is the type of show it's it's going to be,
- 22:24Speaker 4: and you know, and then jumping in and talking to
- 22:27Speaker 4: Chris about it, and then it just took off. And
- 22:29Speaker 4: but I've said it before, I say it a hundred times.
- 22:32Speaker 4: It's y'all show. You guys keep thinking us and I
- 22:34Speaker 4: appreciate that, but it's it's y'all.
- 22:37Speaker 2: Have made it what it.
- 22:38Speaker 4: Is, and so we're I'm just here driving this bus
- 22:40Speaker 4: and I'm totally fine being a bus driver to this.
- 22:42Speaker 4: You guys, jump on, jump off, We'll go. Sometimes we
- 22:45Speaker 4: go fast, sometimes we go slow. And you know, like
- 22:48Speaker 4: like any bus driver, the goal is the same. Don't
- 22:51Speaker 4: hit anyone, just get everyone where they need to go.
- 22:54Speaker 4: Let's go to break here on the Cowboys storyline to

- 24:46Speaker 4: of the offs of the regular season before we get
- 24:48Speaker 4: into the off season plans.
- 24:51Speaker 2: Woo.
- 24:51Speaker 4: We will talk about Monday show. I'm supposed to talk
- 24:54Speaker 4: to Chris about it. I did not even ask him
- 24:56Speaker 4: about that. All right, let's get going on the phone
- 24:59Speaker 4: lines here, Tyrone and Pennsylvania.
- 25:02Speaker 13: Are you know a buss?
- 25:03Speaker 2: How are you doing?
- 25:05Speaker 12: Uh?
- 25:05Speaker 13: You know, uh, let a carry or so at work
- 25:08Speaker 13: right now? Took a little great give you a call.
- 25:10Speaker 2: All right, appreciate that.
- 25:13Speaker 13: So I got a little easy question here. So yeah,
- 25:17Speaker 13: I mentioned earlier about Giton and sim Richards. So how
- 25:24Speaker 13: would you feel about, you know, since we're kind of
- 25:26Speaker 13: evaluating instead of Guiton playing left tackle, why don't we
- 25:31Speaker 13: push him out to right tackle and try a Sim
- 25:35Speaker 13: Richards at left tackle? Because I feel like when a
- 25:37Speaker 13: Sim Richards has been and he's been better than Guyon
- 25:39Speaker 13: at left tackle, maybe that's more of a natural position
- 25:43Speaker 13: for him. Brontus has said that he seems to be
- 25:47Speaker 13: a better tackle than a guard. I know he's got
- 25:50Speaker 13: flexibility there, but I would like to see that just
- 25:53Speaker 13: because this is a week tackled, week tackle draft, So
- 25:57Speaker 13: getting a tackle to replace Guyton like that would probably
- 26:01Speaker 13: be like one, two or three as far as left
- 26:03Speaker 13: tackles go in this class alone, So if he was
- 26:06Speaker 13: to come out, so you're not getting one better than
- 26:09Speaker 13: him outside of the top five. So why don't we
- 26:12Speaker 13: try some Richards at left tackle guiding it right tackle,
- 26:16Speaker 13: and then you figure out a doga and steal in
- 26:20Speaker 13: the off seasons.
- 26:21Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, that's a that's a good thought. Do
- 26:24Speaker 2: you have anything else?
- 26:26Speaker 13: Nope, that's everything.
- 26:26Speaker 6: Man.
- 26:27Speaker 13: Just again, thank you all for you know, everything you did.
- 26:29Speaker 13: Hope you had a wonderful holiday season. And unfortunately, you know,
- 26:34Speaker 13: we got to go to the off season schedule a
- 26:36Speaker 13: little sooner than we all wanted.
- 26:38Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I know, I was hoping for a few
- 26:40Speaker 4: more weeks, several more weeks at that. But all right, definitely, Tyrone,
- 26:44Speaker 4: thanks for the call. Thank you, and and a great
- 26:49Speaker 4: thought in theory. Here's the problem I think with doing
- 26:54Speaker 4: that right now, Guidon, there's just too much. It seems
- 26:59Speaker 4: like there's just too much going on. You say this
- 27:02Speaker 4: a lot about rookies, you don't usually say it the
- 27:05Speaker 4: other way.
- 27:05Speaker 2: But when a rookie.
- 27:06Speaker 4: Comes in and has you know, Tyler, Tyler Smith did
- 27:09Speaker 4: this is you say it's not too big for him.
- 27:11Speaker 4: This isn't too big for him. Maybe this year, this
- 27:16Speaker 4: first season, has been too big for Tyler Goydon.
- 27:18Speaker 2: It just seems that way.
- 27:19Speaker 4: He hasn't been able for one reason or another, hasn't
- 27:22Speaker 4: been able to overcome some of the injuries, just some
- 27:25Speaker 4: of the the the aspects of learning the position, learning
- 27:28Speaker 4: the game, just learning how to be an NFL player.
- 27:31Speaker 2: And so now just moving him over to the right.
- 27:33Speaker 4: Tackle that that that seems like something that Larry Allen could, yeah,
- 27:39Speaker 4: do that, and and and Zach Martin they do that
- 27:42Speaker 4: Tyron Smith. But Tyler Smith of course moving back and forth.
- 27:46Speaker 4: But for Tyler Guyden, it's been a struggle. I can't
- 27:50Speaker 4: imagine just saying all right, last game, go over here,
- 27:53Speaker 4: get the feet backwards. Now, everything that you've learned this,
- 27:56Speaker 4: you know, put your hand this way, your feet the
- 27:58Speaker 4: other way.
- 27:59Speaker 2: I don't know. I just don't.
- 28:01Speaker 4: I think it's probably too much overwhelming. So as easy
- 28:05Speaker 4: as you think that is, and you want to see
- 28:07Speaker 4: it from an evaluation, standpoint, I'm not sure you'd get
- 28:10Speaker 4: the best evaluation for that. Honestly, you'll probably be better
- 28:15Speaker 4: off playing Awesome Richards at right tackle. Remember, he's a
- 28:18Speaker 4: guy that's been a swing tackle, He's played different positions,
- 28:21Speaker 4: and I think you just want to see him play.
- 28:23Speaker 4: So if that was the case, I think it'd be
- 28:25Speaker 4: better to play Awesome Richards at the right side and
- 28:28Speaker 4: keep guiding. As it is. Again, I don't know that.
- 28:32Speaker 4: I haven't been told that. Maybe he likes it. Maybe
- 28:34Speaker 4: it is better because he did play some right tackle before.
- 28:37Speaker 4: Maybe it would be better either way. Great thought, great
- 28:40Speaker 4: theory there. I just I don't know if moving guiding
- 28:44Speaker 4: around it's been tough enough as it is just getting
- 28:47Speaker 4: him there to be consistent at left tackle. All right,
- 28:51Speaker 4: let's go to Zach. He's in from Atlanta, but he's
- 28:55Speaker 4: in Austin right now. Zach, what's up?
- 28:57Speaker 6: What's up? Nick?
- 28:58Speaker 18: I feel like I can you with a ten foot
- 29:01Speaker 18: pole man?
- 29:02Speaker 2: Well, try not to if you can.
- 29:08Speaker 18: Hey calling from the same time zone, same state. I'm
- 29:12Speaker 18: at home this past week and it's been a lot
- 29:14Speaker 18: of fun.
- 29:16Speaker 8: But I mean, quick recap. I feel like, if you're.
- 29:19Speaker 18: The main character and the Cowboys are like the main storyline.
- 29:23Speaker 18: We all have our own little storylines going on. And
- 29:26Speaker 18: I'm showing back up to the table today. I drove
- 29:28Speaker 18: through a tornado last Saturday. There was tornadoes like in
- 29:31Speaker 18: the Houston and Louisiana area. That was ten out of ten.
- 29:35Speaker 18: Never want to do again. That stucked, wrote some roller
- 29:39Speaker 18: coasters at six Flags. The Longhorn game was crazy, you know.
- 29:44Speaker 18: Obviously the Cowboys game was crazy.
- 29:46Speaker 2: Was there one? Was there one there called the Cowboy Ride?
- 29:51Speaker 2: Just no?
- 29:51Speaker 18: They all yeah, yeah, those ones had a defined start
- 29:57Speaker 18: and stop.
- 29:58Speaker 11: I don't know where.
- 30:00Speaker 18: Yeah, Cowboys, I guess the season ends on Sunday. We
- 30:03Speaker 18: know that, so we think that. But yeah, Man, good
- 30:07Speaker 18: to be on the phone with you. Happy new year
- 30:10Speaker 18: to you and beam Man. Just a quick comment. I
- 30:16Speaker 18: think as we look to.
- 30:18Speaker 19: This game and the off season around the corner, I
- 30:22Speaker 19: think we got to get the line straightened out in
- 30:25Speaker 19: this next off season draft and by the end of
- 30:29Speaker 19: next season to maximize Dax's contract to.
- 30:34Speaker 18: You know, support whoever we're putting in the running game.
- 30:39Speaker 18: But yeah, I think, uh, but like like Leicester and Minnesota,
- 30:43Speaker 18: says Man, we gotta we got to make sure the
- 30:45Speaker 18: line is is stout going forward and they've made strides right,
- 30:49Speaker 18: like they know we were just talking about guiding. Uh,
- 30:52Speaker 18: they drafted Cooper bb and so you know, the resources
- 30:57Speaker 18: are there. They they've done what they feel like they
- 31:00Speaker 18: needed to do one paper. But it just really has
- 31:03Speaker 18: to pan out if we're gonna have success in this
- 31:06Speaker 18: next window. So that's all I got. I just wanted
- 31:11Speaker 18: to check in.
- 31:12Speaker 4: Be careful, be careful driving through the storm and and
- 31:17Speaker 4: the roller coasters and all that you're talking about roller coasters.
- 31:19Speaker 4: This season has been one that Texas game was certainly one.
- 31:23Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 31:24Speaker 18: Yeah, I think earlier this season, after the Saints game,
- 31:27Speaker 18: I said, you know this is this is a performance
- 31:31Speaker 18: you want to flush down the dream?
- 31:33Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 31:33Speaker 4: Wow, this this whole season, the season was not far behind.
- 31:38Speaker 18: Exactly more of the norm than the abnormality. So take
- 31:44Speaker 18: your lumps and keep going.
- 31:45Speaker 4: So appreciate it. Thanks for the call. You know, it
- 31:50Speaker 4: doesn't matter how you slice it. It doesn't matter how
- 31:53Speaker 4: many injuries that you throw out there and say, look
- 31:55Speaker 4: at all of the players on injured reserve, look at
- 31:58Speaker 4: you know, and and it's not wrong. I mean there's
- 32:00Speaker 4: there was fourteen guys that had made the Pro Bowl
- 32:06Speaker 4: that were on this roster, and that's what you know.
- 32:08Speaker 4: Jerry told us that this is this is why he
- 32:10Speaker 4: has optimism because this is a talented roster with some
- 32:14Speaker 4: really good players. And of those fourteen players, I mean,
- 32:17Speaker 4: at least ten or eleven of them spent time on
- 32:20Speaker 4: injury reserve or miss missed or at least more than
- 32:22Speaker 4: two or three games. So they just didn't They weren't
- 32:27Speaker 4: able to lean on those guys. And then some of
- 32:29Speaker 4: the other guys that they were hoping would make that
- 32:31Speaker 4: that leap this year just didn't. Didn't happen, didn't materialize
- 32:34Speaker 4: for one reason or another. But doesn't matter. The Saints
- 32:40Speaker 4: game will always be there, that Saints game. There's no
- 32:43Speaker 4: excuses for that, no excuses to play like that. They did,
- 32:46Speaker 4: coming off a week one win on the road to
- 32:48Speaker 4: come home to play a Saints team that we didn't
- 32:50Speaker 4: think was very good. They looked great. You made them
- 32:53Speaker 4: look great. And guess what, they weren't very good at all.
- 32:57Speaker 4: They're gonna be picking before you picked. You know, they
- 33:00Speaker 4: had injuries too, but that day, you know, very sad.
- 33:04Speaker 4: I mean, Alvin Kamara was was amazing, and and Peyton
- 33:09Speaker 4: I'm sorry Derek Carr was was unbelievable and the Cowboys
- 33:14Speaker 4: made them look that that way. So anyway, you slice
- 33:17Speaker 4: this season, that Saints game sitting there, and that was
- 33:20Speaker 4: the game that showed, uh oh we got problems here,
- 33:23Speaker 4: and they certainly did. All right, let's go to Davian
- 33:26Speaker 4: and Illinois. David becoming a regular.
- 33:30Speaker 7: What's going on?
- 33:31Speaker 2: What's up?
- 33:32Speaker 5: Man?
- 33:32Speaker 2: How are you doing?
- 33:34Speaker 7: I'm doing well, man. It was hard to get in today. Boy,
- 33:36Speaker 7: I had to colld of like time.
- 33:38Speaker 2: All right, I like it. I like it.
- 33:41Speaker 4: Now are you are you able to call all the
- 33:43Speaker 4: time or is this kind of a because of the
- 33:45Speaker 4: of the holiday season that, like, your schedule is different.
- 33:50Speaker 7: Yeah, my schedule is different. I'm where the plant shut
- 33:54Speaker 7: down to about next week. I go back to work
- 33:56Speaker 7: next week on the thirteenth, so uh, i'd be free
- 34:01Speaker 7: for next week too.
- 34:02Speaker 2: Joined some time off. That's good, that's awesome.
- 34:05Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, pretty much. First day. First, I know you
- 34:10Speaker 7: mentioned that you was born in Streetport. That's actually my hometown.
- 34:13Speaker 7: Nice all right, as my hometown. That's where I was
- 34:16Speaker 7: born and raised and then all all over a little
- 34:20Speaker 7: my LSU Tigers. So yeah, street boys, where I'm at.
- 34:24Speaker 4: Well, as a as a Louisiana man, it doesn't matter,
- 34:29Speaker 4: you know where in the state. I know everybody there
- 34:31Speaker 4: is thinking about what happened in New Orleans and just
- 34:34Speaker 4: how unbelievable that was. And I know people from Louisiana
- 34:38Speaker 4: kind of stick together, regardless if you're at the top
- 34:41Speaker 4: or the bottom of the boot or whatever.
- 34:43Speaker 7: So yeah, prayers out for that. I mean, I was
- 34:46Speaker 7: really hurt when I saw that, having in New Orleans.
- 34:49Speaker 7: Believable my score prediction, I think seventeen were probably gonna
- 34:55Speaker 7: lose this some one. I think Washington has a little
- 34:57Speaker 7: bit more to play for. I think we treated like
- 34:59Speaker 7: a preseason game, so I think it's gonna be We're
- 35:02Speaker 7: gonna see our three quarterbacks. Hopefully we see a lot
- 35:05Speaker 7: of dues, so so my boy dealer can get his
- 35:07Speaker 7: uh finally get to see a duce do something that'd
- 35:11Speaker 7: be nice. And then I guess last week before I
- 35:15Speaker 7: get off, I was, of course, I listened to all
- 35:18Speaker 7: the shows, and I've been hearing when people call in,
- 35:21Speaker 7: and I guess one of the things that people called
- 35:23Speaker 7: in about is, of course you're McCarthy. And when I'm
- 35:26Speaker 7: one thing, they first thing out they mouth with the
- 35:28Speaker 7: one that actually liked McCarthy. They'll be like, well, we
- 35:31Speaker 7: got get rid of play calling, and I just want
- 35:34Speaker 7: to make people understand that play calling with McCarthy is
- 35:37Speaker 7: like taking cars with my six year old son. It's
- 35:40Speaker 7: just it's gonna be their regard. He don't want to
- 35:42Speaker 7: play call wherever he's at, wherever he's coaching it. It's
- 35:45Speaker 7: all he been doing. He only gave it up a
- 35:47Speaker 7: couple of times and killing Moore and Joe filming back
- 35:50Speaker 7: in Green Bay, so he don't really he likes to
- 35:52Speaker 7: play call play. So if you're gonna have him back,
- 35:54Speaker 7: he's gonna be a play caller. And that's why I've
- 35:56Speaker 7: been stunchily like he got to go because they one
- 36:00Speaker 7: and the same, and I don't need, I don't need
- 36:01Speaker 7: to play call anymore, so I forgot Yeah let's go.
- 36:06Speaker 4: Yeah, well I mean you say that, and and but
- 36:10Speaker 4: but if if if the deal is this, like this
- 36:13Speaker 4: is the deal, like like it's not like he's the
- 36:16Speaker 4: coach right now. You know, his contract expires next week,
- 36:20Speaker 4: so the new contract says, okay, you're not the play caller.
- 36:25Speaker 4: And if he if he says no, that's not how
- 36:27Speaker 4: it works. Then you know, maybe then that's not how
- 36:30Speaker 4: it works. But I don't think the phone is ringing
- 36:33Speaker 4: off the hook for him if he if he is
- 36:36Speaker 4: out there, I mean, I don't think he's going to
- 36:38Speaker 4: have all these other options to be the coach, So
- 36:40Speaker 4: it might be his best option. I know you're saying
- 36:43Speaker 4: that's not the way he's going to operate, but he
- 36:46Speaker 4: operates if that's if that's the best thing. You know,
- 36:49Speaker 4: because you said it's happened twice. It happened here with
- 36:51Speaker 4: mc kellen, Morre's happened in Green Bay, so you know,
- 36:54Speaker 4: if it happens, it happens. He's gonna want to be
- 36:56Speaker 4: the head coach of the Cowboys. I mean, I think so.
- 36:59Speaker 4: I think if that that's the deal, then I think
- 37:01Speaker 4: that's the deal. And like I said yesterday, you can
- 37:03Speaker 4: still have your fingerprints on things to say, hey, I
- 37:07Speaker 4: want to run the football here, I want to or
- 37:10Speaker 4: in his case, I want to throw it. But but
- 37:12Speaker 4: you know, I mean, it's got to be it's got
- 37:15Speaker 4: to be a situation where you know, he is somebody
- 37:17Speaker 4: that he can work with.
- 37:18Speaker 2: If they do do it.
- 37:19Speaker 7: That way, well, I'll tell you this. We're coming to
- 37:23Speaker 7: Ougs now. You know, you're our crew coming to Ox
- 37:27Speaker 7: to hang out with y'all. So if he actually does that,
- 37:30Speaker 7: he actually says, I don't want to be a play
- 37:32Speaker 7: call anymore, then I would buy you and Chris and
- 37:34Speaker 7: drink all.
- 37:35Speaker 2: Right on me cool. So if he does that sounds
- 37:38Speaker 2: sounds good.
- 37:39Speaker 4: Yeah, get ready, because Chris likes to drink those big,
- 37:41Speaker 4: you know ones with the umbrella and the fruity ones.
- 37:44Speaker 2: I'm kidding, I'm kidding, I'm kidding. All right, man, I
- 37:48Speaker 2: have a good one, Dave. I appreciate that good stuff.

- 40:29Speaker 9: You know people you appreciate everything that they put into
- 40:34Speaker 9: is like Dylan from Dylan and Irene and Travis for
- 40:40Speaker 9: the Draft show, and also you know Captain Rob for
- 40:44Speaker 9: putting in hisseduff in, but especially you and uh Chris
- 40:49Speaker 9: for all the hard work he does in the back
- 40:51Speaker 9: taking all our calls and everything like that. Appreciate everything
- 40:56Speaker 9: you guys do, especially the callers than Rick. And also
- 41:00Speaker 9: another shout out to is au See Cowboys. You want
- 41:05Speaker 9: the first annual Storyliners Fantasy football league.
- 41:08Speaker 2: Oh nice, nice, that's awesome.
- 41:11Speaker 9: Michael Football with Green was in second.
- 41:14Speaker 2: Okay, of course he is. That's awesome. Yeah, that's good. Something.
- 41:18Speaker 4: Maybe maybe we'll do something like that for March Madness.
- 41:22Speaker 4: You know, we'll have like a storyline pool or something
- 41:25Speaker 4: like that we can get for free. Obviously no money please,
- 41:30Speaker 4: but we do something like that. Not the same as
- 41:33Speaker 4: fantasy football, of course, but just something to kind of
- 41:35Speaker 4: keep everybody in.
- 41:36Speaker 2: We could, we could set that up, all right.
- 41:38Speaker 9: Yeah, my prediction is gonna be Cowboys twenty four and
- 41:44Speaker 9: Commander's twenty one and Brandon Albury gets the game winner
- 41:49Speaker 9: and field goal.
- 41:50Speaker 2: Be awesome. That would be great. All right, Rick, we're
- 41:54Speaker 2: gonna keep it.
- 41:54Speaker 4: We're gonna keep it rolling. Good to hear from you again.
- 41:57Speaker 4: All right, let's go to North Carolina. We got Eric
- 42:02Speaker 4: in Carolina. Eric, how are you doing.
- 42:05Speaker 7: I'm doing well.
- 42:06Speaker 11: I hope you are. I'm just going to say that
- 42:11Speaker 11: I think. I also think we we need the coaching change,
- 42:17Speaker 11: just because it seems like the league's defenses have gotten
- 42:22Speaker 11: used to McCarthy's playbook and didn't seem to like expand
- 42:27Speaker 11: it very much. And I dislike an undisciplined team, like
- 42:33Speaker 11: with the numerous penalties we've had the past several years.
- 42:39Speaker 11: And then the last thing I wanted to say was,
- 42:43Speaker 11: I think for our team for next year, one of
- 42:46Speaker 11: the best things we can do is to get an
- 42:51Speaker 11: impact player, an impact defensive player, to take the pressure
- 42:55Speaker 11: off of Parsons, you know, or the double teaming.
- 42:59Speaker 12: I know.
- 43:00Speaker 11: Ever since twenty twenty, we've alternated first round picks between
- 43:07Speaker 11: offense and defense. So this year, the uh, this year
- 43:14Speaker 11: it says defense. Okay, we'll see if that holds true.
- 43:18Speaker 11: But I think that defensive tackle Graham might be the
- 43:23Speaker 11: best pick for us. Although I'm not too excited about
- 43:27Speaker 11: Michigan players. I know, but you got but like brought
- 43:30Speaker 11: us a scout, the player, not the helmet.
- 43:33Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's that's true.
- 43:36Speaker 4: But you know, I looked at I look at some
- 43:39Speaker 4: mock drafts just the other day just for fun, and
- 43:41Speaker 4: I saw like four Michigan players, three on defense, like
- 43:44Speaker 4: in the top fifteen, and I was like, what I mean,
- 43:47Speaker 4: somebody was smashing them, you know, like like, now, yeah,
- 43:50Speaker 4: their defense, their offense obviously had problems. But yeah, you
- 43:54Speaker 4: draft another Michigan guy, there's gonna be there's gonna be
- 43:57Speaker 4: some issues there.
- 43:59Speaker 11: Oh yeah.
- 44:00Speaker 4: And that's like yeah, but hey, that's that's kind of
- 44:04Speaker 4: that's that's the way it goes.
- 44:06Speaker 2: You know. If they can play, they can play.
- 44:08Speaker 4: I mean, if you got Aiden Hutchinson, I don't think
- 44:11Speaker 4: anyone you know, I think will be fine with that.
- 44:13Speaker 4: So there's certainly exceptions to the rules.
- 44:15Speaker 2: They can play. Yeah, all right, anything else, Eric, just one.
- 44:21Speaker 11: Last thing, uh, Also, our offense needs some impact player
- 44:28Speaker 11: to take the pressure off Lamb, just like we need
- 44:31Speaker 11: a defensive player to take the pressure off of Parsons.
- 44:35Speaker 11: If we could get more threats out there, I think
- 44:39Speaker 11: that that'd be the best thing, the best thing for us.
- 44:42Speaker 11: But with that, I'll bid you and Chris a great day.
- 44:47Speaker 4: Thanks, thanks so much. Eric, appreciate that I'm with you
- 44:51Speaker 4: on the offensive player too. This is another guy, a
- 44:53Speaker 4: little speed threat. I mean, Turpin has been a good addition,
- 44:57Speaker 4: but he's still sort of in that gadget role.
- 44:59Speaker 2: Type. I'm talking about.
- 45:01Speaker 4: A receiver like what Baltimore added with with Zay Flowers
- 45:06Speaker 4: to their team. You know, I know he was a
- 45:08Speaker 4: first round pick. But a guy like that you don't
- 45:10Speaker 4: have to be you know, you're not gonna be playing
- 45:12Speaker 4: in the NBA.
- 45:13Speaker 2: You don't have to be that that tall.
- 45:14Speaker 4: But but a guy that's very quick, that that can
- 45:17Speaker 4: they can do some things to hurt you down the
- 45:19Speaker 4: field and also uh make people miss. All right, let's
- 45:22Speaker 4: go one more caller here, Lester in Minnesota. Lester, what's up?
- 45:28Speaker 7: Good morning, Neck, Good morning, how are you.
- 45:31Speaker 20: I'm doing well. I don't really have too much to
- 45:34Speaker 20: say today. I just want to call in and say
- 45:37Speaker 20: thank you for your show. You and Chris, thanks and
- 45:41Speaker 20: all of all of everyone who works with you and
- 45:44Speaker 20: everyone who puts the shows together.
- 45:47Speaker 6: Just it was.
- 45:48Speaker 20: It was up and down season, but I still love
- 45:52Speaker 20: my Cowboys and.
- 45:57Speaker 6: The score.
- 45:57Speaker 20: This week, I'm gonna say I'm going to do one
- 46:02Speaker 20: one point prediction twenty to nineteen, okay, and one last
- 46:07Speaker 20: thing for you Cowboys, for all our cowboys.
- 46:10Speaker 4: Hey, les sir, tell us what the Cowboys need to
- 46:12Speaker 4: do to get better?
- 46:14Speaker 20: Yeah, I was going to say one last thing is
- 46:16Speaker 20: can we get a good, very good offensive and defensive line.
- 46:21Speaker 7: This is what we have?
- 46:22Speaker 20: Cowboys go, Cowboys, all.
- 46:24Speaker 2: Right, thank you one more time. I like it.
- 46:27Speaker 4: Hey, I like consistency, you know what I mean. So
- 46:30Speaker 4: if you if that's your that's your point, make it
- 46:33Speaker 4: every time.
- 46:34Speaker 2: I like it. All right.
- 46:35Speaker 4: Well, unless we have another caller, it's just kind of
- 46:39Speaker 4: right up against it here Cowboys break coming up here next.
- 46:42Speaker 4: Had eleven calls today. It was good stuff. I know
- 46:46Speaker 4: there seemed like it was tough to get in. So
- 46:48Speaker 4: appreciate you guys calling in and and and talking about
- 46:53Speaker 4: a game that that it's hard to predict. I mean, like,
- 46:56Speaker 4: you know, someone said, hey, I got an easy question
- 46:58Speaker 4: for you. I was like, well, I'm thinking to myself,
- 46:59Speaker 4: I hope it's not who's playing quarterback because that's usually
- 47:02Speaker 4: the easiest one there is, and in this case it isn't.
- 47:06Speaker 4: My guess is Trey Lance will play a good amount.
- 47:10Speaker 4: I did an interview with Steven Jones earlier this week.
- 47:12Speaker 4: He kind of said that, he said, you know, he
- 47:14Speaker 4: thought that he would play quite a bit. So does
- 47:18Speaker 4: that mean he'll start, We'll see. I don't know if
- 47:20Speaker 4: will Greer. We'll get in there at all or Cooper
- 47:22Speaker 4: Rush at all. But I would imagine Trey Lance gets
- 47:26Speaker 4: the majority of the of the snaps in this game,
- 47:28Speaker 4: and so it'll be it'll be interesting to see, you know.
- 47:31Speaker 4: I mean, we've kind of been waiting for it, just
- 47:34Speaker 4: to see what he would be like. I don't think
- 47:36Speaker 4: he was the best option. And you know, even if
- 47:40Speaker 4: he lights it up, I still I think that they
- 47:43Speaker 4: did the right call here this We're not We're not
- 47:46Speaker 4: going anywhere. The show will be here next week. Like
- 47:50Speaker 4: I said, we have the Monday show for at one
- 47:52Speaker 4: o'clock Monday for thirty minutes, and then we'll also get
- 47:55Speaker 4: into our regular Wednesday show. But it is a good time,
- 47:57Speaker 4: you know, to wrap up this regular season for me
- 48:00Speaker 4: to say thank you to everybody, just just just the
- 48:04Speaker 4: knowledge that you bring, the passion that you bring, the energy,
- 48:08Speaker 4: and just the commitment to the show. It's just second
- 48:13Speaker 4: to nine. This second year has been better than the first.
- 48:17Speaker 4: The first was better than we ever thought it would be.
- 48:20Speaker 4: I can't wait to see what next year is going
- 48:22Speaker 4: to be like. This community that we've built is awesome
- 48:26Speaker 4: and I love that you guys are a part of it.
- 48:28Speaker 4: And I say it a billion times. It's y'all's show.
- 48:32Speaker 4: I'm just just having fun driving the bus. And it
- 48:34Speaker 4: has been great this season through a tough year because
- 48:38Speaker 4: you got to remember last year doing this show, getting
- 48:41Speaker 4: the callers, oh this is easy. Yeah, we're talking about
- 48:44Speaker 4: a forty point win, talking about scoring fifty points here,
- 48:47Speaker 4: thirty five point win, all that, you know, good good stuff.
- 48:50Speaker 4: A little different this year with all the things that
- 48:52Speaker 4: have happened. Even through it all, you guys have been
- 48:56Speaker 4: classy and and you've been very respectful, and I appreciate
- 48:59Speaker 4: that because it's not easy to talk about some of
- 49:02Speaker 4: the things we talk about, and you guys understand the
- 49:05Speaker 4: platform that we have and kind of how we have
