- 0:24Speaker 1: What's up? Welcome to another edition of Cowboys Storyline. I
- 0:28Speaker 1: am Nick Eatman. It is August third. We are here
- 0:31Speaker 1: in Oxnard, California. This is we've been here a week now.
- 0:35Speaker 1: It's our second show. It's kind of how the things
- 0:37Speaker 1: kind of worked out. It's a little bit of a
- 0:39Speaker 1: slow start for us to get going. But this week
- 0:42Speaker 1: we'll have three shows Monday, Wednesday, Friday, so we'll catch
- 0:46Speaker 1: up quick here.
- 0:47Speaker 6: Now.
- 0:48Speaker 1: Today is the first day of padded practice, so we've
- 0:52Speaker 1: seen a little bit of action out there, the guys
- 0:55Speaker 1: looking good and we get questions all the time who
- 0:57Speaker 1: looks good who doesn't. But it's not really football football,
- 1:01Speaker 1: And I got a chance. I actually talked to Tyler
- 1:02Speaker 1: Booker this this morning for a little bit on the
- 1:05Speaker 1: one O five to three, the Phanom radio show he
- 1:07Speaker 1: was doing, and he was saying how the mentality doesn't
- 1:10Speaker 1: really change, but obviously the physicality part does. We get
- 1:14Speaker 1: to see what real football players are are doing. You
- 1:17Speaker 1: can evaluate the guards and the tackles and the running
- 1:21Speaker 1: backs and the linebackers. And you know, Jayshawn Barham is
- 1:24Speaker 1: getting a ton of attention so far, everyone's talking about
- 1:28Speaker 1: him how great he's done. But you know, let's see.
- 1:31Speaker 1: Let's see what happens when the Pats come on and
- 1:33Speaker 1: if he's still moving around doing doing great things, and
- 1:35Speaker 1: you know, maybe he might even look even better, because
- 1:38Speaker 1: that's what linebackers do when they have a chance to
- 1:40Speaker 1: be physical. All right, let me get the phone line.
- 1:43Speaker 1: It doesn't just roll off the top here, I kind
- 1:45Speaker 1: of you have the number, beams got it. He's already
- 1:49Speaker 1: got two callers already rolling here. So I'll what now
- 1:53Speaker 1: it's on the screen. I don't see the screen, y'all
- 1:54Speaker 1: see the screen. There's a screen now. Some people are listening.
- 1:57Speaker 1: But figure out the number. I've tweeted it out. You
- 1:59Speaker 1: can call Michael from Bowling Green. Figured it out. He
- 2:02Speaker 1: got his going, Michael, what's up?
- 2:03Speaker 7: Man?
- 2:04Speaker 1: Hey man?
- 2:05Speaker 3: What's going on?
- 2:06Speaker 1: Not much? How are you? Oh man?
- 2:08Speaker 8: So much better since you all were back home. Hey,
- 2:11Speaker 8: I am not gonna hold you up for just a minute.
- 2:14Speaker 8: I just want to tell you something that happened a
- 2:15Speaker 8: few weeks ago. I went to a hobby lobby in
- 2:19Speaker 8: Bowling Green, Kentucky.
- 2:21Speaker 1: Had had my.
- 2:22Speaker 8: Storyline shirt on.
- 2:24Speaker 1: I walked in.
- 2:26Speaker 8: There's a group of people in This little girl, probably,
- 2:28Speaker 8: I don't know, four or five years old. She had
- 2:30Speaker 8: on a Dallas Cowboy shirt. And I said to the
- 2:34Speaker 8: adult and said, that is a fine shirt you got
- 2:36Speaker 8: a kid in. She goes, oh, you like the Cowboys.
- 2:40Speaker 8: I said, yeah, look at my shirt. She goes, well,
- 2:42Speaker 8: her daddy is Princeton fan.
- 2:44Speaker 6: I was like, call the tight.
- 2:46Speaker 8: End nice and thought for a minute, you know, and uh,
- 2:51Speaker 8: but I just thought it was cool. She was so
- 2:53Speaker 8: proud she had her Cowboys.
- 2:55Speaker 1: Shirt on and everything, and that's awesome.
- 2:57Speaker 8: It's her.
- 2:58Speaker 6: Her mom was like.
- 2:59Speaker 8: I was like, yeah, no, I said, I know the
- 3:01Speaker 8: name Princeton Fans.
- 3:03Speaker 1: Let me ask you this with Michael. Was it at
- 3:04Speaker 1: the end of the day or was it early in
- 3:08Speaker 1: the day, middle of the day. Probably wasn't too late
- 3:10Speaker 1: if it was a four or five year old out there, but.
- 3:12Speaker 6: Yeah it was.
- 3:13Speaker 8: It was two three o'clock in the afternoon.
- 3:15Speaker 1: Well, they stayed all day. I'm gonna just tell you.
- 3:18Speaker 1: Right there, they stayed all day. I don't know anything
- 3:20Speaker 1: about it, but I know this Princeton Fance should have
- 3:22Speaker 1: been gone like three years ago, and he's still here.
- 3:24Speaker 1: He doesn't go anywhere. He is like that. He's not
- 3:27Speaker 1: gonna make the team. They got this tight end and
- 3:29Speaker 1: guess what he's on the practice squad replays in some games.
- 3:32Speaker 1: They can't get rid of Princeton Fance. So I bet
- 3:34Speaker 1: you they stayed all day at the hobby lobby and
- 3:36Speaker 1: they couldn't get rid of them.
- 3:38Speaker 8: Yeah, but now she was so proud to tell me
- 3:41Speaker 8: that her dad was or I was, Princeton was a
- 3:44Speaker 8: Dallas cowboy.
- 3:44Speaker 1: Well that's all I wanted.
- 3:47Speaker 8: So I you know, let you so you can get
- 3:50Speaker 8: twelve or thirteen in today. I appreciate it.
- 3:52Speaker 1: I appreciate it. You know, twelve or thirteen is going
- 3:54Speaker 1: to be tough. Thanks for call, Michael. And I say
- 3:56Speaker 1: this because a lot of the people that call all
- 3:59Speaker 1: the time him or here. This is the day that
- 4:03Speaker 1: the the guys have made it up here. Dylan in Northport, Florida,
- 4:07Speaker 1: Irene is here, Joe in Stanford. You know they're all here,
- 4:12Speaker 1: though it's it's Joe in in in Oxtar Dylan In,
- 4:15Speaker 1: Oxnard Irene, and Ox Snart. There's eight of them who
- 4:19Speaker 1: I'm missing here. Oh it Sarge and Sue. How can
- 4:21Speaker 1: I forget that? I don't want him to, you know,
- 4:24Speaker 1: give me the people's eyebrow. But yeah, it'll be uh,
- 4:27Speaker 1: it'll it'll be interesting to see. We're gonna take on
- 4:29Speaker 1: one of our Cowboys fence Line episodes with them out
- 4:32Speaker 1: there on the fence. Hopefully the VIP passes that I
- 4:35Speaker 1: was able to score for them, Hopefully they they work.
- 4:38Speaker 1: All right, I'm a in Napa, California. I'm a what's up? Man?
- 4:45Speaker 1: I'm ay there? Not there? Okay, you know, maybe he's
- 4:52Speaker 1: maybe he's hard to hear in Napa, you know, and
- 4:55Speaker 1: phone lines aren't aren't necessarily working. But that's okay. Let's
- 4:58Speaker 1: see if we can go to the next call. No,
- 5:00Speaker 1: there's no IPIC. Let's go to the next caller. We
- 5:04Speaker 1: have another caller. No, I may I may dropped. I
- 5:08Speaker 1: think Lewis and Langston are you there?
- 5:15Speaker 6: Hey?
- 5:15Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm hurt. Yep. What's that? Man?
- 5:18Speaker 6: Not much?
- 5:18Speaker 1: Man?
- 5:18Speaker 6: I got told Chris Man.
- 5:20Speaker 9: I appreciate the shirt.
- 5:21Speaker 5: Man.
- 5:21Speaker 10: It's comfortable, is it?
- 5:23Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 5:23Speaker 10: Pretty?
- 5:24Speaker 5: You said that like you ain't got one?
- 5:27Speaker 1: No, is it to you? I know it is, but
- 5:29Speaker 1: I mean, you know, what's comfortable to one was isn't
- 5:32Speaker 1: so much to another. But no, I've got one. I
- 5:34Speaker 1: forgot to bring it though, honestly Chris didn't. Chris is
- 5:37Speaker 1: rocking it over here, Derek. Derek wore last year's shirt
- 5:41Speaker 1: or two years ago shirt walking around here today. So
- 5:46Speaker 1: what do you got, Louis.
- 5:47Speaker 3: He has to start not much so, Derek.
- 5:48Speaker 11: He has to start calling in if you want to
- 5:50Speaker 11: get shirt himself.
- 5:51Speaker 1: You know what. I won't say that because he actually
- 5:54Speaker 1: doesn't have to do that. He just has to keep saying, yeah,
- 5:57Speaker 1: keep doing the show, your numbers are okay, keep doing
- 6:00Speaker 1: what you're doing. That's all he has to do, and
- 6:01Speaker 1: that's all he is going to do. So he gets
- 6:04Speaker 1: a shore. Different rules for different folks.
- 6:07Speaker 6: Huge, all right, bust.
- 6:10Speaker 5: I wanted to kick up given the year started off,
- 6:12Speaker 5: to get in.
- 6:13Speaker 10: I missed the first day, but I just want to call.
- 6:16Speaker 11: Like I said the other day when I did call that.
- 6:19Speaker 10: We went on breakway. I'm kind of glad we're not
- 6:21Speaker 10: doing the George kicking.
- 6:23Speaker 11: Signs there is He's not there.
- 6:25Speaker 6: So's part the videos our team.
- 6:27Speaker 11: He looks like he's having the guitime and he's answering
- 6:29Speaker 11: all the questions. Doesn't seem like there's nothing going on,
- 6:32Speaker 11: which is fine with me on perfectly pond.
- 6:35Speaker 9: My My question is I haven't really got to, Like
- 6:39Speaker 9: I said.
- 6:39Speaker 6: I'm not there.
- 6:41Speaker 11: So what does the running back battle look like?
- 6:43Speaker 6: Is there clear one, two and three?
- 6:45Speaker 11: Maybe there's a fourth guy coming at it?
- 6:47Speaker 10: Like do you have the bark course and how do you?
- 6:50Speaker 11: How do you as of right now, I'll stack up
- 6:52Speaker 11: the linebackers, I'll take that off her, and I'll listen
- 6:55Speaker 11: to it when I can't.
- 6:57Speaker 1: All right, thank you, Lewis appreciate running backs and linebackers.
- 7:01Speaker 1: And that's kind of what I was talking about earlier
- 7:03Speaker 1: about being you know here watch it with the with
- 7:06Speaker 1: the pads come on, you know when the pads aren't on,
- 7:10Speaker 1: you know, the running backs they score a touchdown I
- 7:13Speaker 1: ever play. You know, they get hit and they keep
- 7:16Speaker 1: going and you know they could have been stuffed for
- 7:18Speaker 1: a two yard loss, but they're going to keep running
- 7:20Speaker 1: to the end zone. They look pretty good. Javonte the
- 7:25Speaker 1: has you know, he's the starter. Obviously, no no changes
- 7:29Speaker 1: there saying what I just said about it's hard to
- 7:35Speaker 1: evaluate running backs right now. I'll say that the guy
- 7:37Speaker 1: that probably looks the best so far would be Phil
- 7:42Speaker 1: MafA in my opinion. You could probably sit and ask
- 7:45Speaker 1: three other people and they would say Jayden Blue, they
- 7:49Speaker 1: might say Malik Davis. They might say the guy can't
- 7:52Speaker 1: pronounce who played it, Pitt ib Conda or whatever, I
- 7:57Speaker 1: don't remember his name, and I'll say it exactly. He
- 8:00Speaker 1: looks pretty good, you know. And then Hunter Lipke is
- 8:02Speaker 1: also kind of in the mix, so a little early
- 8:06Speaker 1: to tell there, and preseason games are gonna factor in
- 8:10Speaker 1: a lot there, so those guys will go in and
- 8:13Speaker 1: play something that get the snaps in preseason. You know,
- 8:16Speaker 1: this next week and a half is very important for
- 8:18Speaker 1: these guys not to get hurt because they need the
- 8:20Speaker 1: preseason games. You know. For some some guys, you're like, oh,
- 8:24Speaker 1: he's not gonna play preseason or whatever. But man, I
- 8:27Speaker 1: think we all want to see Jayden Bloom, Film, Moffa,
- 8:29Speaker 1: even Leak Davis. They want to see those guys in
- 8:32Speaker 1: the preseason. So it's gonna be very important. Ask for linebacker,
- 8:35Speaker 1: you know, you ask for the depth chart overshowns. I
- 8:38Speaker 1: think got the you know, lead there in the middle.
- 8:41Speaker 1: He's green dot favorite and all that. But we've seen
- 8:45Speaker 1: Barham take some of those snaps that we thought initially
- 8:48Speaker 1: were going to d winners. So they're rotating different things,
- 8:51Speaker 1: but bar Ham has jumped into the mix there. Shamar
- 8:54Speaker 1: James has looked pretty good. He gets to the ball quick.
- 8:58Speaker 1: Now is it where he's supposed to be, Well, he's
- 9:00Speaker 1: supposed to be around the ball, but he gets where
- 9:02Speaker 1: he's going from A to B with with the quickness. Again,
- 9:06Speaker 1: he's one that's gonna just look phenomenal when the pads
- 9:10Speaker 1: aren't on, because linebackers can go and get to the football.
- 9:13Speaker 1: But what happens on that second level when the guard
- 9:15Speaker 1: center right there pushing him out of the way. Does
- 9:17Speaker 1: he have enough of that size to get there and
- 9:20Speaker 1: stay there and fill the hole and things like that.
- 9:23Speaker 1: I would think as a second year linebacker, you know,
- 9:25Speaker 1: he will be improved as well. And you know, that's
- 9:31Speaker 1: that's kind of how the linebacker situation, you know, looks
- 9:34Speaker 1: at the moment. But you know, we'll we'll see, we'll
- 9:37Speaker 1: see what happens. But you know, with those four guys,
- 9:40Speaker 1: Barham James, not in order, but those two overshown winners.
- 9:44Speaker 1: They'll figure out a pretty good rotation there. I think
- 9:47Speaker 1: I think there is pretty good depth. I don't know
- 9:49Speaker 1: about adding to that position if it's if it's going
- 9:52Speaker 1: to get a free agent or trade for somebody, that's
- 9:55Speaker 1: not the position that I'm looking at. I'm gonna look
- 9:58Speaker 1: for a defensive end or I'm gonna look for a
- 9:59Speaker 1: corner first, or maybe a left tackle. All right, I
- 10:04Speaker 1: have to just go to Chris. Do you have a caller?
- 10:07Speaker 1: Anthony and Miami? What's up, budd? Anthony? Can you hear
- 10:12Speaker 1: me about can you hear me? Nick? Yeah? How about
- 10:19Speaker 1: Brian in Kansas City? Brian, what's up? Man? How you doing?
- 10:22Speaker 1: Every other call? Every other call must be it might
- 10:24Speaker 1: be one of the lines, maybe one line that we're
- 10:27Speaker 1: having trouble with, But Brian, what's up? Dude?
- 10:31Speaker 7: Oh man? Well, first of all, I'm glad to hear
- 10:34Speaker 7: at least Anthony and Miami can call because he's one
- 10:37Speaker 7: of him and Zacher.
- 10:39Speaker 12: You know, some of the guys that that you know
- 10:41Speaker 12: work has, you know, interfered a little bit with their
- 10:43Speaker 12: ability to call in. So I'm glad glad to see
- 10:46Speaker 12: he's out there trying to get in sure, you know.
- 10:50Speaker 7: I The thing I was thinking about was, well, my
- 10:53Speaker 7: first question kind of already answered it. My first question
- 10:56Speaker 7: was gonna be is from just we know that Barham
- 11:00Speaker 7: is the guy that looks good coming off the bus,
- 11:03Speaker 7: right He's a big linebacker looking guy, and and we
- 11:07Speaker 7: know what his demeanor is, or at least you know
- 11:09Speaker 7: what he's when he's a few times he's been on
- 11:13Speaker 7: something that we can watch. You know, he's kind of that,
- 11:16Speaker 7: you know, like, hey, I'm a linebacker, you know, just
- 11:19Speaker 7: remember that, you know. And I was curious about his
- 11:24Speaker 7: football IQ. But you've already said people are kind of
- 11:26Speaker 7: raving and bragging about him, So that's good to hear
- 11:29Speaker 7: that that he's picking it off as they're putting it down.
- 11:32Speaker 7: I'll switch my question to what do you who if
- 11:36Speaker 7: you can tell, having not seen a padded practice yet,
- 11:41Speaker 7: who do you think is is the leader in the
- 11:46Speaker 7: backup tackle group? You know, from the new draft pick
- 11:51Speaker 7: to the to the guys that have been around a
- 11:53Speaker 7: couple of years. Is there anybody in that group that's
- 11:56Speaker 7: standing out? And I think I'm trying to think of
- 12:01Speaker 7: the other guy's name, So obviously Thomas who played some
- 12:04Speaker 7: last year, yeah, and I'm trying to think who's the
- 12:08Speaker 7: guy that was two years ago. He was kind of
- 12:10Speaker 7: the one that everybody was like, Oh, he's going to
- 12:12Speaker 7: be the backup. Now he's gonna be a backup. I
- 12:16Speaker 7: can't think of his name, but anyway, just tell me
- 12:18Speaker 7: what you think about the backup tackle, anything you can
- 12:21Speaker 7: tell me about the regular tackles. I hang up and listen.
- 12:24Speaker 5: Man.
- 12:25Speaker 1: Well, I'm trying to think as well of who I mean,
- 12:29Speaker 1: because some of those guys are those veterans like identity
- 12:33Speaker 1: and stuff like that. But like now, Johnny Cornelius is
- 12:38Speaker 1: still here, and uh, you know, he's kind of in
- 12:41Speaker 1: the in the mix for for backups. But you know,
- 12:45Speaker 1: it's an interesting question because you've got like Drew Shelton,
- 12:49Speaker 1: you know, would be in there as well after Nate Thomas,
- 12:53Speaker 1: but you kind of think that the third option would be,
- 13:00Speaker 1: like it would probably be Geiden. If it doesn't work
- 13:03Speaker 1: out there, they're gonna look at Nate Thomas. And if
- 13:05Speaker 1: it doesn't work out there, then it's probably gonna be well,
- 13:08Speaker 1: what about Tyler Smith sliding over? And now you move
- 13:11Speaker 1: bass in or inside or whatever. So that's why it's
- 13:14Speaker 1: a little tricky to answer that question, because I think
- 13:17Speaker 1: your third tackle. I hate to call Tyler Smith third
- 13:20Speaker 1: string or anything, but I think he'd be like third option.
- 13:23Speaker 1: He might just be second depends depends what the drop
- 13:27Speaker 1: off would be between Guidon and and Nate Thomas. But
- 13:32Speaker 1: you know, that's one of the questions that I asked
- 13:35Speaker 1: Shoddy the other day about about just you want to
- 13:40Speaker 1: get continuity, but at the same time, you want to
- 13:42Speaker 1: have competition. So how do you have competition? But also
- 13:46Speaker 1: I have continuity and the offensive line that you're trying
- 13:49Speaker 1: to build, you know, and so you want those guys
- 13:52Speaker 1: to kind of work next to each other and so,
- 13:55Speaker 1: but it's more important he said, to move guys around
- 13:58Speaker 1: this time of year. So he said that the Terrence
- 14:01Speaker 1: Steel will play, We'll move from right to left at times.
- 14:04Speaker 1: He said that Tyler Booker will be some guard and
- 14:07Speaker 1: this help that he'll get center snaps. Same with Tyler Smith.
- 14:10Speaker 1: So this is the time of the year to kind
- 14:12Speaker 1: of shuffle that around and really get a good valuation
- 14:15Speaker 1: for the question that you asked about who how these
- 14:18Speaker 1: backups are looking? All right, We're gonna go to a
- 14:20Speaker 1: break here on Cowboys storyline. We'll be right back.

- 16:20Speaker 5: Well, yeah, no, I'm headed down.
- 16:21Speaker 1: I'm headed down right now.
- 16:22Speaker 5: Speak as we speak. Man, I'm headed down.
- 16:25Speaker 3: I'm about to hit the grapevine right now for California.
- 16:28Speaker 1: Now it's the.
- 16:29Speaker 5: Mountain that separates the valley from La or So cal So. Yeah,
- 16:34Speaker 5: I'm headed down right now. I should be learning about.
- 16:36Speaker 1: An hour, all right, forward to it? Cool.
- 16:38Speaker 5: All right, it's a last minute trip. But man, all
- 16:41Speaker 5: of the talk about camp.
- 16:42Speaker 3: And everything just really got my blood flowing.
- 16:45Speaker 5: And I thought that I'd made up my mind with
- 16:48Speaker 5: just too much family commitments, that I wasn't going to
- 16:50Speaker 5: be able to make it. But I couldn't resist, man,
- 16:53Speaker 5: I couldn't resist. And I'm headed down, be there soon.
- 16:57Speaker 5: I'm really looking forward to it. Excited out the defense,
- 17:01Speaker 5: excited about down, Excited about Barnum, Excited about the tackles.
- 17:06Speaker 5: Who's gonna win that is the Is my boy Nate
- 17:09Speaker 5: Thomas going to push guyon to the right side and
- 17:13Speaker 5: push Steel out? Is Gydon gonna gonna win the job
- 17:16Speaker 5: overall and stay on the left side? And you know,
- 17:18Speaker 5: just so many different things. Where's Sam William's gonna rotate in?
- 17:24Speaker 3: You know how much playing time does.
- 17:26Speaker 5: Mile Ky Lawrence gonna get. I'm excited to make I
- 17:29Speaker 5: feel like I'm gonna put the paths on today.
- 17:31Speaker 1: You know, you know, like let me good, let me
- 17:33Speaker 1: flip one of those questions back to you, because you
- 17:36Speaker 1: you know a lot of a lot of questions and
- 17:38Speaker 1: one of them and I get I get most of them.
- 17:41Speaker 1: The one that I don't really understand is like Guidon
- 17:45Speaker 1: is battling Nate Thomas and we're trying to figure out
- 17:48Speaker 1: if both either one of these two guys can play
- 17:50Speaker 1: tackle at this level. Well, some some of you guys
- 17:53Speaker 1: want to move Guidon to right and just move Steel out.
- 17:56Speaker 1: What is Steel ever done? Like, like he's he's solid?
- 18:02Speaker 5: Is he not?
- 18:02Speaker 1: Like I just don't. I mean, he's not. He's not
- 18:05Speaker 1: gonna make the Pro Bowl, probably not. But I'm just saying,
- 18:09Speaker 1: like I think he's he's fine. I don't think Tarren
- 18:12Speaker 1: Steele is your problem at right tackle, and I think
- 18:15Speaker 1: he's your best tackle that you have. But I think
- 18:18Speaker 1: he's probably his upside he's hit it. But I still
- 18:21Speaker 1: think he's the best tackle you have.
- 18:24Speaker 5: Yeah, No, I mean I get I would agree with
- 18:28Speaker 5: that right now, this this point and day, right now,
- 18:32Speaker 5: maybe still is the best tackle.
- 18:33Speaker 3: But you know, there was some times last year, you know,
- 18:37Speaker 3: he missing tackles all on the.
- 18:38Speaker 5: Outside, and when Geyton was holding down to his side,
- 18:41Speaker 5: it seemed like Stell wasn't holding down to his side. So,
- 18:44Speaker 5: you know, I believe in Shotty.
- 18:45Speaker 3: He said the best five guys are gonna play.
- 18:47Speaker 5: He said he was already tinking around. So you know,
- 18:50Speaker 5: coming out of college, Geyton that was his spot on
- 18:53Speaker 5: the right side. You know, people thought maybe like long term,
- 18:56Speaker 5: that's where he's gonna be at and not.
- 18:58Speaker 3: So much a rough tackle. So I was just throwing
- 19:01Speaker 3: that out there. I want to see the best five guys, sure,
- 19:03Speaker 3: I feel like most most importantly, it's.
- 19:06Speaker 5: The three guys in the middle. They're the ones that
- 19:08Speaker 5: are gonna do the most damage. We're gonna run right
- 19:10Speaker 5: eye people. We're not gonna try to get wide, you know.
- 19:13Speaker 5: So I'm looking forward to it, man, I'm looking forward.
- 19:16Speaker 5: I want to see some wrinkles that shottheimer year two
- 19:19Speaker 5: of his offense, or I guess year three or whatever,
- 19:22Speaker 5: but just the second year being the head coach and
- 19:25Speaker 5: man Parker, it's just everything, nking. I hope you can
- 19:28Speaker 5: hear the excitement in my voice. And yeah, I couldn't.
- 19:31Speaker 3: I couldn't resist, man, I couldn't resist.
- 19:34Speaker 5: I got I got out all this time, I got
- 19:35Speaker 5: to take off for kids, I got to get to
- 19:37Speaker 5: college and all of that stuff. But man, you know again,
- 19:41Speaker 5: three and four hundred miles wasn't gonna keep me away.
- 19:45Speaker 5: So I headed down. Man, all right, see you see it.
- 19:48Speaker 5: I hope to catch you on the fence. I'll be
- 19:49Speaker 5: out there with my shirt on. Let's go Cowboys.
- 19:53Speaker 1: Run, let's go, all right, I man, we'll see if
- 19:55Speaker 1: I can get you. With the rest of the group,
- 19:58Speaker 1: I don't know. I already got them kind of situated.
- 20:00Speaker 1: We'll make it work. We'll figure it out one way
- 20:03Speaker 1: or another. Yeah, I mean, and and I let me
- 20:07Speaker 1: let me also reiterate what I was saying about the
- 20:10Speaker 1: right tackle position, Like, like, I understand that everybody wants,
- 20:15Speaker 1: you know, to get better. You know you want you
- 20:17Speaker 1: want those You're like, yeah, Okay, Steele, he's serviceable, solid,
- 20:21Speaker 1: I call him solid. You want to be better than that.
- 20:23Speaker 1: You weren't better than solid. Totally get that. I just
- 20:27Speaker 1: I have a hard time thinking that Nate Thomas is
- 20:31Speaker 1: going to push Guidon so well that they are the
- 20:35Speaker 1: two best tackles and not Steal when right now I
- 20:40Speaker 1: think Steals the best guy you got. If those two
- 20:43Speaker 1: guys or Drew Sheldon or whatever just battle and compete
- 20:47Speaker 1: with each other so much that they're your two best options, great,
- 20:52Speaker 1: great problem to have, and all that, I'm just not
- 20:54Speaker 1: seeing it. I just don't. I think you'll be lucky
- 20:57Speaker 1: if one of them is better. You know, that's what
- 21:01Speaker 1: you want. You want your right tackle to beat your
- 21:04Speaker 1: second best tackle. It's always on the right side. If
- 21:06Speaker 1: your best tackles on the right side, then that's probably
- 21:10Speaker 1: running for his light and always looking over his shoulder.
- 21:13Speaker 1: All right, let's see if we can go to our
- 21:15Speaker 1: next collar. When we got over here, Armando in Mexico, Armando,
- 21:19Speaker 1: what's up man? I'm good. You always make me laugh.
- 21:23Speaker 1: I don't know why.
- 21:26Speaker 5: Well, that's good.
- 21:27Speaker 1: What's up man?
- 21:29Speaker 14: So Nick, I'm excited to be back.
- 21:32Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 21:33Speaker 14: So did you did you ever make a matching they
- 21:36Speaker 14: woke up? Or you didn't?
- 21:38Speaker 1: I did? I did, And I have a new favorite team,
- 21:42Speaker 1: Ivory Coast. Oh, okay, that is my team.
- 21:47Speaker 5: No, okay, so I got four years.
- 21:51Speaker 1: For them again.
- 21:53Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 21:53Speaker 1: I went to Ivory Coast versus Norway and it was
- 21:56Speaker 1: an unbelievable experience. I appreciate. I loved the World Cup.
- 22:02Speaker 1: I loved it this year. It was it was. It
- 22:04Speaker 1: was so fascinating to me. I watched almost every single game.
- 22:08Speaker 1: I found myself watching like, I don't know, Australia versus
- 22:13Speaker 1: Egypt or something in penalty kicks and I'm kind of
- 22:15Speaker 1: sweating it out and I have no dog in the fight,
- 22:17Speaker 1: but I'm just like, this is so intense, so yeah,
- 22:21Speaker 1: it was fun.
- 22:22Speaker 14: Something different.
- 22:23Speaker 1: It was fun. Yeah.
- 22:25Speaker 14: So four in four years, we'll see you in Spain
- 22:28Speaker 14: for the next work up. Sure, Son, just wanted to
- 22:33Speaker 14: say that I'm excited that everybody's back. And this is
- 22:37Speaker 14: when I think, remember all the time that you say
- 22:40Speaker 14: that whenever the Cowboys are eliminated. At some point, a
- 22:44Speaker 14: lot of funs say that that's I'm not watching anymore.
- 22:47Speaker 14: This seem min of suffering anymore. And here we are,
- 22:50Speaker 14: all are here again to start all over again, right, I.
- 22:54Speaker 1: Mean, that's that's what football is. I mean, that's what
- 22:56Speaker 1: sports is. I mean, you you you, you know, you
- 23:01Speaker 1: get knocked down, you get back up right, and let's
- 23:04Speaker 1: watch it again, and it's you know, it's it's really
- 23:08Speaker 1: I always use the term roller coaster. It is like
- 23:11Speaker 1: a roller coaster. The whole season is some of it's fun,
- 23:14Speaker 1: some of it's not, and at the end you've got
- 23:16Speaker 1: that pit in your stomach and you're like, oh my god,
- 23:19Speaker 1: I can't eat, And then about thirty minutes later you're like,
- 23:22Speaker 1: are we gonna write it again? And that's what football is.
- 23:25Speaker 1: That's that's exactly why I always use the analogy as
- 23:28Speaker 1: a roller coaster, because it gives you every emotion.
- 23:33Speaker 14: Yeah, well, I'm glad to be back. Oh I got
- 23:36Speaker 14: my T shirt. Thank you very much. It's very nice
- 23:38Speaker 14: and glad to be part of that community. All right.
- 23:42Speaker 1: Well, I appreciate it. Thank you for the call and
- 23:44Speaker 1: thanks for your support. And we put Armando on the
- 23:48Speaker 1: all the uh it was the ambassador on the all
- 23:51Speaker 1: International team international squad there with a couple of others
- 23:55Speaker 1: there from Brian from from England, from Birmingham. Not not
- 24:00Speaker 1: Mike from Birmingham. Even not Brian, sorry, Mike from Birmingham, England.
- 24:03Speaker 1: Who's here. He's he's traveled the furthest to be here today,
- 24:08Speaker 1: so that that'll be cool to see him. All right,
- 24:12Speaker 1: Rob in Vegas, Rob.
- 24:15Speaker 6: I'm a little hey Mack, how's everything.
- 24:17Speaker 1: Well it was it was okay, I'd rather you not
- 24:19Speaker 1: be calling.
- 24:21Speaker 6: I know, I know. Unfortunately a lot going on. My
- 24:25Speaker 6: youngest daughter is getting married.
- 24:27Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. So you don't have anyone.
- 24:30Speaker 6: Working on working on that.
- 24:33Speaker 1: So you have a second job, you're you're working extra
- 24:36Speaker 1: You're right, man, I get it. No, I don't. I
- 24:40Speaker 1: haven't been there, but I mean I've got three daughters
- 24:43Speaker 1: and so eventually I probably will be and.
- 24:46Speaker 6: It's it's so expensive. I told her go look at
- 24:49Speaker 6: venues and when she did, she was like, they're crazy.
- 24:53Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 24:54Speaker 6: So but no, I'm glad the crew went down. I'm
- 24:58Speaker 6: sure that you're gonna take They have a great time.
- 25:01Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's good. I was hoping you could make it.
- 25:04Speaker 1: But definitely understand all of that. You told me. You said,
- 25:10Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm gonna go. We'll see what
- 25:13Speaker 1: they do in the draft and free agency. I want
- 25:15Speaker 1: to see if I feel good about the team and
- 25:17Speaker 1: all that. What do you think.
- 25:21Speaker 9: I feel.
- 25:23Speaker 6: I'm glad they did more than they usually do. I
- 25:27Speaker 6: still think they could do more.
- 25:28Speaker 2: You know who we're talking about, But I'm looking forward
- 25:34Speaker 2: to it. I mean, I don't get bent out of
- 25:36Speaker 2: shape what I'm seeing right now.
- 25:38Speaker 6: It's two hand touch, so it's all on the offense.
- 25:41Speaker 6: They know where they're going.
- 25:42Speaker 2: Nobody's gonna touch these wide receivers or guffer bid the quarterback.
- 25:46Speaker 6: So right now, you know it's unfair for the defense.
- 25:50Speaker 6: I like this kid, Barham. He looks like a linebacker,
- 25:54Speaker 6: not a safety. He looks like the real deal.
- 25:59Speaker 2: My concern and his pass rush, because we've seen it
- 26:04Speaker 2: last year. You can't get to the quarterback. I don't
- 26:06Speaker 2: care who's in the back end.
- 26:08Speaker 6: You're gonna get wrecked. I'm just looking forward to football.
- 26:12Speaker 6: I like the running backs.
- 26:14Speaker 2: I like Jaden Blue, you know, I think he could
- 26:18Speaker 2: do something that you know, mentally, if he's in the
- 26:21Speaker 2: game physically, I.
- 26:22Speaker 6: Think he could do something right. I I totally agree
- 26:26Speaker 6: with you about Karen Steel. You know, he's not a
- 26:31Speaker 6: Hall of Famer, but he's the least of my worry.
- 26:35Speaker 6: I mean, he's he's good.
- 26:37Speaker 2: You can't have all pros at every position, you know,
- 26:42Speaker 2: so you're right, he does what he's gotta do. Could
- 26:47Speaker 2: you upgrade it maybe one day, but right now, let's
- 26:49Speaker 2: worry about the left tackle. Let's worry about the backup tackle.
- 26:54Speaker 2: I think this is a big year for Schottenheimer. Let's
- 26:56Speaker 2: face it, it's his team now. He picked his defensive coordinator,
- 27:01Speaker 2: he's calling the shots.
- 27:04Speaker 6: You can't miss the playoffs again. I'm sorry.
- 27:07Speaker 2: You missed the playoffs again. You know your job may
- 27:10Speaker 2: be in jeopardy. You know you have a top five quarterback.
- 27:16Speaker 6: Wide receivers.
- 27:17Speaker 2: Now you got defensive pieces, number one draft pick' safety.
- 27:24Speaker 6: They should be better. You know, I think Philadelphia is weaker.
- 27:29Speaker 6: I think we could compete, definitely compete for the division.
- 27:32Speaker 2: And then that's why I want to make a big
- 27:34Speaker 2: splash move for a topnotch player, because I think we
- 27:38Speaker 2: could win the division as we sit right now. My
- 27:42Speaker 2: issue is going the next step. I think you need
- 27:47Speaker 2: difference makers, you know, and I and our offense, we
- 27:52Speaker 2: got some. I don't think we have enough on defense,
- 27:54Speaker 2: so I would.
- 27:55Speaker 6: Like to see them make a move.
- 27:56Speaker 2: I'm just excited for preseason football. I'm excited for football.
- 28:00Speaker 6: You know, this is the dead time, you know, for me,
- 28:02Speaker 6: I only really.
- 28:03Speaker 2: Watch football and hockey, and obviously hockey is over, so
- 28:06Speaker 2: football is my my true passion. And I'm just excited
- 28:10Speaker 2: to sit down and watch preseason football and critique.
- 28:14Speaker 6: These guys like I know what I'm talking about, you know,
- 28:18Speaker 6: but yeah, let's see what happened.
- 28:19Speaker 1: All right, you know? All right, Well I'm I'm I'm
- 28:22Speaker 1: with you, and again, wish wish you guys could have
- 28:26Speaker 1: you know, made it. You're you're one of the pioneers
- 28:28Speaker 1: of this and and really, you know, when you think
- 28:32Speaker 1: about like who who's coming, Not in disrespect to anybody
- 28:38Speaker 1: that that couldn't make it, but you know, as far
- 28:39Speaker 1: as captains go, you know you're you're definitely one of
- 28:42Speaker 1: them that that took this to another level. And also
- 28:45Speaker 1: like Joe from Stanford, one of the first guys to
- 28:47Speaker 1: call all the time. You know he's here. You got
- 28:49Speaker 1: other captains, but you'll be missed. And I am glad
- 28:52Speaker 1: that you were able to call in today. I needed
- 28:54Speaker 1: something I needed. If they're not calling in, I needed you.
- 28:57Speaker 1: So I'm glad you called. All right, Oh he's out, Okay,
- 29:02Speaker 1: Leicester and Minnesota Okay, I mean right on, kill Lester.
- 29:05Speaker 1: How about another of the guys that call all the time,
- 29:08Speaker 1: other you know, first team, all storyline people that that
- 29:12Speaker 1: that I lean on to call in. What do you
- 29:14Speaker 1: got Bud?
- 29:16Speaker 15: Good morning man.
- 29:17Speaker 2: Hey.
- 29:17Speaker 15: I tried to call in last week, but I didn't
- 29:20Speaker 15: have the number at first, and I got the number
- 29:22Speaker 15: that I never got in.
- 29:23Speaker 5: So all about that, Nick?
- 29:25Speaker 1: All right, man, it's all good. Glad to hear from you.
- 29:28Speaker 15: Hey, man, Hey, I'm just.
- 29:30Speaker 5: Glad that we were about to get some football.
- 29:32Speaker 15: I'm glad we got a little training camp there. I'm
- 29:36Speaker 15: glad that shot he's calling the shots. Like Rob was saying,
- 29:41Speaker 15: I think that we need to make a little bit
- 29:44Speaker 15: more of a slash move if we can. If we can,
- 29:47Speaker 15: I think we are a playoff team with what we have.
- 29:52Speaker 15: Uh and again what we have with the offensive line.
- 29:55Speaker 15: I'm glad that shot Aheimer is looking.
- 29:58Speaker 5: To see what what would be the best five. You
- 30:02Speaker 5: already know what I think the best five is.
- 30:04Speaker 16: But we'll see.
- 30:05Speaker 3: He's the coach.
- 30:06Speaker 15: I'm just a plan.
- 30:07Speaker 6: I'm just a superman since that nineteen seventy.
- 30:09Speaker 5: Seven, right, and shout out to all that's there that came.
- 30:14Speaker 15: I'll try to make it next year.
- 30:16Speaker 6: Go Cowboys.
- 30:17Speaker 1: All right, thank you, Lester, appreciate the call. Yeah, this
- 30:21Speaker 1: is probably turning into a tradition thing, So yeah, I
- 30:24Speaker 1: would imagine they're just gonna keep kind of adding adding
- 30:27Speaker 1: to it. You know, you mentioned that about Shoddy and
- 30:32Speaker 1: Rob said it in the call before about who you know,
- 30:36Speaker 1: he's got to make the playoffs this year and and
- 30:38Speaker 1: you know pieces are here to do that, and you know,
- 30:42Speaker 1: have they built a playoff team? Well, to me, there
- 30:47Speaker 1: are probably like even I'm not talking about before the season,
- 30:51Speaker 1: Like before the season, there's thirty two teams that are
- 30:54Speaker 1: figuring out how to get to the playoffs. But even
- 30:56Speaker 1: at the end of the season. I think you've got
- 30:59Speaker 1: twenty total teams that are playoff teams. You got about
- 31:03Speaker 1: ten on each side. Usually now let's give or take.
- 31:07Speaker 1: Sometimes there's more, sometimes there's less. But when you get
- 31:10Speaker 1: to the end of the season, middle of December, and
- 31:12Speaker 1: they say in the hunt and the playoff picture and
- 31:14Speaker 1: the graphic comes up there, and you know, you don't
- 31:17Speaker 1: want to be way on the right in the hunt.
- 31:19Speaker 1: At least you're on the page. But there's probably ten right,
- 31:22Speaker 1: ten teams seven make it. There's ten that are gonna
- 31:27Speaker 1: you know, that are that are fighting for it. And
- 31:29Speaker 1: I think that their playoff teams. Did they make that
- 31:32Speaker 1: field goal, did they miss it, did it get blocked?
- 31:35Speaker 1: Did you go for two and you miss? I mean,
- 31:36Speaker 1: there's little things that happened throughout the game. I still
- 31:39Speaker 1: go back to Washington a couple of years ago. That
- 31:42Speaker 1: wasn't one of the best teams in the league, you know,
- 31:45Speaker 1: but they were in the NFC Championship game some someplace.
- 31:47Speaker 1: Cowboys haven't been. They just they struck you know, like gold,
- 31:52Speaker 1: like eight times in the season. The Bears kind of
- 31:56Speaker 1: did that last year and then the momentum built and
- 32:00Speaker 1: then they were a really good team by the end
- 32:01Speaker 1: of the year. So gotta get those wins, and you
- 32:04Speaker 1: gotta get them early, and you gotta be that football
- 32:07Speaker 1: team that starts building the confidence. So that's why I
- 32:10Speaker 1: always look at that first month of the season and go,
- 32:13Speaker 1: gotta get those games. Gotta go to New York and win,
- 32:16Speaker 1: Gotta come back and beat Washington. And you know what,
- 32:18Speaker 1: if you're gonna fly twenty hours on a plane, go
- 32:21Speaker 1: win the damn game. Go win down there and beat
- 32:24Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. Get them on the ground and beat them.
- 32:26Speaker 1: So all right, you do all that and then you
- 32:28Speaker 1: kind of get it rolling. Jose in Houston is next, Hose.
- 32:34Speaker 1: What's up, man?
- 32:35Speaker 5: Yeah, what's up?
- 32:36Speaker 7: Nick?
- 32:36Speaker 10: How's it going, bro?
- 32:37Speaker 1: It is going well. Good to hear from you.
- 32:39Speaker 10: That's good to hear, man, Yeah, good to hear from you.
- 32:41Speaker 5: Man.
- 32:42Speaker 10: Man the past, the months. Today, I'm excited, Nick. I
- 32:45Speaker 10: want to see, uh, you know, you don't other starts
- 32:47Speaker 10: to the past.
- 32:48Speaker 1: The money they pay.
- 32:49Speaker 10: So my question is, you know how the acquisition of
- 32:54Speaker 10: Rashan Gary. I'm just wondering, like I know, we'll get
- 32:57Speaker 10: a how he's gonna look today. But I saw the
- 33:00Speaker 10: first day he's out there making plays, punching the ball
- 33:03Speaker 10: out and then you know, Caleb Downs discovers it. So
- 33:07Speaker 10: I mean my question is does the Sean Gary have
- 33:10Speaker 10: anything left from the tank, because I know I think
- 33:13Speaker 10: Michael's brother was eating that he did against the run.
- 33:15Speaker 10: But you know, we'll see how he does. And I
- 33:18Speaker 10: know how michaeh when Michael went out, he was over
- 33:21Speaker 10: in Green Bay and his numbers kind of did for
- 33:23Speaker 10: Sean Gary. So I'm just excited to see the new acquisition.
- 33:25Speaker 10: And I'm just wondering, what do you think.
- 33:28Speaker 1: Well, you know, I'm going to hang up now on this. Okay,
- 33:30Speaker 1: thank you for the call, Hos. I appreciate that, you know,
- 33:34Speaker 1: still have something in the tank, you know. I mean
- 33:39Speaker 1: he's had seven and a half sacks like five of
- 33:41Speaker 1: the last six years, including the last three. I mean,
- 33:44Speaker 1: he's hit the seven and a half sack mark, which
- 33:48Speaker 1: I think that's what Clowney got last year. To lead
- 33:51Speaker 1: the team last year is not a great example for
- 33:54Speaker 1: the for the team because the guy that led the
- 33:56Speaker 1: team in sacks, led the team and tackles, led the
- 33:58Speaker 1: team in interceptions three different guys, and up until yesterday,
- 34:02Speaker 1: none of those guys were in the league. Uh, Clowney
- 34:04Speaker 1: is now back in the league, and but I don't
- 34:07Speaker 1: think Murray is. And I don't know about Donovan Wilson.
- 34:09Speaker 1: I think he've worked out with someone, but I don't
- 34:10Speaker 1: think he's in the league. But my point is is
- 34:12Speaker 1: last year is not a good year to go off of.
- 34:14Speaker 1: But does Sean Gary have something to thank that's your question.
- 34:17Speaker 1: I think yeah, I think he. I think he does.
- 34:19Speaker 1: I think he's been rejuvenated a little bit. You know,
- 34:22Speaker 1: when when you when you're on a team and that's
- 34:25Speaker 1: been your team for the whole time, and you get traded,
- 34:29Speaker 1: you know, saying with Kenny Clark, saying with with Gary,
- 34:33Speaker 1: you gotta get here, and you know, not too happy
- 34:36Speaker 1: about it, but but but also I mean happy at first,
- 34:39Speaker 1: just because it's like, Wow, I thought I thought I
- 34:42Speaker 1: was gonna play my whole career here. I mean, how
- 34:44Speaker 1: could they trade me? But once that kind of is done,
- 34:46Speaker 1: then you get excited about the new team and you
- 34:48Speaker 1: just want to be wanted. And that's what I think
- 34:50Speaker 1: Gary is. I think that he knows that you know,
- 34:52Speaker 1: he's wanted here and and he has a chance to
- 34:55Speaker 1: to kind of be the guy. And yeah, there's young
- 34:58Speaker 1: young players like as a Rock and Malachi Lawrence and
- 35:01Speaker 1: Sam Williams. You know, Sam's not a young guy, but
- 35:05Speaker 1: he's still relatively young and still still ready to take
- 35:08Speaker 1: that next leap. So I think there's a lot of
- 35:10Speaker 1: pass rushers here with something to prove, including Gary, who's
- 35:15Speaker 1: getting questions like that, like does he have any Van
- 35:17Speaker 1: lev Is he gonna start declining? Does he need a
- 35:20Speaker 1: Mica Parsons to do well? Or can he be the guy?
- 35:23Speaker 1: Everybody's got a question mark, and you know maybe that
- 35:25Speaker 1: they'll kind of use that to kind of battle with
- 35:28Speaker 1: each other. All right, let's go back to the phone lines.

- 37:09Speaker 1: few more minutes wrap up this show? We got another
- 37:13Speaker 1: caller on the line. It is Josh in Chicago. What's up, Josh?
- 37:18Speaker 6: Heynck?
- 37:18Speaker 9: How's we going out there?
- 37:19Speaker 1: Right? Are you great? Man bombed?
- 37:23Speaker 9: I can't be out there, but you know, with the
- 37:24Speaker 9: new move and stuff, just couldn't make it work this year.
- 37:27Speaker 9: Maybe next year, maybe next year.
- 37:29Speaker 1: That's isn't that the theme of the Cowboys? Like in general,
- 37:33Speaker 1: and it always.
- 37:33Speaker 9: Seems like, yeah, always the theme of the Cowboys.
- 37:36Speaker 1: Maybe next year, hopefully this year, you know, this year
- 37:41Speaker 1: for that next year to come out here? How about? Yeah,
- 37:44Speaker 1: what do you got?
- 37:45Speaker 9: You know, I actually have a different question. But just
- 37:48Speaker 9: because we're kind of talking about it and dancing around it,
- 37:50Speaker 9: I'm gonna those reports about like Dak and the Super
- 37:53Speaker 9: Bowl comments I just find so like ludicrous Steven report
- 37:56Speaker 9: on because it's like, what would you expect to starting
- 37:58Speaker 9: quarterback on a franchise to say we're not ready to
- 38:00Speaker 9: win or compete for a Super Bowl? Like it's just
- 38:03Speaker 9: it's just clickbait, you know. Yeah, I mean I'll digress
- 38:06Speaker 9: on that.
- 38:07Speaker 1: Yeah, this is the goal, like like the that's the goal.
- 38:12Speaker 1: Like you're playing into the fan base, you're playing into
- 38:14Speaker 1: the media expectations. That is it? Like the Cowboys have
- 38:19Speaker 1: a drought of thirty years of winning the Super Bowl.
- 38:22Speaker 1: That is their drought. That is their standard, right, So yeah,
- 38:26Speaker 1: that's that's the way it is.
- 38:29Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 38:29Speaker 9: I think it'd be weird if, like if any player
- 38:32Speaker 9: from a big team or any team really came out
- 38:34Speaker 9: was like, you know, this year is not our year
- 38:36Speaker 9: and it's not even week one yet. It's like, come on, guys,
- 38:38Speaker 9: like right, let's talk about something that matters. But my
- 38:41Speaker 9: question for you, actually, I saw a little bit in
- 38:43Speaker 9: one of the articles in about mars lea Foule and
- 38:46Speaker 9: him kind of in and out of coverage and doing
- 38:48Speaker 9: some different stuff. I was wondering, how is he looking?
- 38:50Speaker 9: Did he I know there was talk before about him
- 38:52Speaker 9: putting on some size. I was just wondering, how he's looking.
- 38:54Speaker 9: And I'll take off their have a good day.
- 38:55Speaker 1: Yeah, I appreciate it. Throw him into that same groups.
- 39:00Speaker 1: Gonna go out here those first four or five days
- 39:02Speaker 1: and look look great. He's gonna look great because he's
- 39:04Speaker 1: a linebacker body playing defensive end. So yeah, I mean,
- 39:09Speaker 1: you're you're gonna be moving fast, quick twitch, all that stuff,
- 39:13Speaker 1: running with people. But my biggest thing is when when
- 39:19Speaker 1: Tyler Smith, Tyler Booker starts coming around the edge to
- 39:24Speaker 1: to pull and it's your job to force and you know,
- 39:28Speaker 1: take on that block. Are you doing it? Can he
- 39:31Speaker 1: do that? Are you gonna get around it? Getting around
- 39:33Speaker 1: It's fine unless you're you're getting yourself out of position.
- 39:37Speaker 1: So that's what a defensive end's gotta do and show.
- 39:41Speaker 1: And I I'll be honest, I I just have never
- 39:45Speaker 1: seen that, like unless Christian. You know, Christian Parker and
- 39:50Speaker 1: Shotty have a different view of how they want to
- 39:53Speaker 1: run certain certain positions. And so it's like, no, he's
- 39:57Speaker 1: not gonna play defensive end hand on the ground and
- 39:59Speaker 1: play know the whole time, but is there a role
- 40:03Speaker 1: for him? It's kind of like what they're gonna do,
- 40:05Speaker 1: I believe with lt Overton at tackle. So if you
- 40:09Speaker 1: don't ask someone to do it the entire time, then
- 40:12Speaker 1: then I think it's fine. But I am curious like
- 40:14Speaker 1: you on how it's going to go with lea foul
- 40:17Speaker 1: day in the day out, not just first day, but
- 40:19Speaker 1: keep doing it, keep going and taking on those blocks
- 40:22Speaker 1: and playing, you know, in a position where you're a
- 40:24Speaker 1: little bit undersized. All right, we have another caller to
- 40:28Speaker 1: wrap up.
- 40:30Speaker 5: Z in d C Z.
- 40:33Speaker 1: How you doing there? What's up? Many?
- 40:37Speaker 16: I wish I knew about the the little first team
- 40:40Speaker 16: plage I got calling. I would have been calling you
- 40:42Speaker 16: if I'm from d C. I'm saying around all the
- 40:45Speaker 16: Commanders fans you and me, So I'm I'm cowboying for light.
- 40:49Speaker 1: Hey. Hey, we just started. We just got started. This
- 40:52Speaker 1: is the season. This is season four of the show.
- 40:55Speaker 6: Uh you know.
- 40:56Speaker 1: And it starts about not too.
- 41:00Speaker 7: End up going to school with.
- 41:02Speaker 16: A dude that that played old football play at Beacon
- 41:06Speaker 16: House with old Baham. So like I'm close to him,
- 41:09Speaker 16: you know what, I'm.
- 41:10Speaker 1: Close to Bayam.
- 41:10Speaker 16: He from where I'm down here where I'm from.
- 41:13Speaker 6: But I got a question for you.
- 41:14Speaker 9: You know, do you know him my close friend?
- 41:18Speaker 16: He like his cousin.
- 41:19Speaker 1: I think he is his cousin, asked cousin. If he smiles,
- 41:24Speaker 1: because we haven't seen it. Does he does?
- 41:27Speaker 4: He?
- 41:28Speaker 1: He joke.
- 41:29Speaker 6: I don't know, and I just ens we're gonna see it.
- 41:32Speaker 16: We're gona see him smiling. Joke, but he we not
- 41:34Speaker 16: about to smile until he gets his position on the team.
- 41:39Speaker 1: He was supposed to do an interview with us tonight.
- 41:41Speaker 1: That was the plan. We asked him, our PR team
- 41:44Speaker 1: asked him and he gave a two word answer. One
- 41:47Speaker 1: of them was no. But there was another one too,
- 41:51Speaker 1: he said, and there wasn't no fas Okay. I think
- 41:54Speaker 1: he was like, I ain't doing that. He's serious about football,
- 41:58Speaker 1: and I think but it's healthy about.
- 41:59Speaker 16: Straight he trying it on that field, love, And I
- 42:02Speaker 16: got a question for you.
- 42:03Speaker 3: I got a question for you.
- 42:04Speaker 16: Back when we had Possis, we had a good edge rotation,
- 42:08Speaker 16: you know what I'm saying. Behind Possins, we had Lawrence,
- 42:10Speaker 16: see what I'm saying. On the other side that we
- 42:12Speaker 16: had Armstrong and we had some other guys you know
- 42:14Speaker 16: what I'm saying that was coming.
- 42:15Speaker 1: In against some sack.
- 42:16Speaker 3: How do you feel about that?
- 42:17Speaker 16: We got the edge death.
- 42:18Speaker 3: Now like we have like about like five six Russia.
- 42:22Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying, rotation, and we have so we.
- 42:24Speaker 16: Got Gary Azaraku, Lawrence, Sam Williams, Houston and then they
- 42:30Speaker 16: be having Leah Foule, you know, and you know, Baham,
- 42:32Speaker 16: can you know what I'm saying, play the edge or
- 42:34Speaker 16: the outside lineback?
- 42:35Speaker 3: How do you feel about that?
- 42:36Speaker 16: Since we got all this rotation now, you know I'm
- 42:39Speaker 16: saying we've got fresh legs coming in.
- 42:41Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what, that's a great question. I appreciate
- 42:43Speaker 1: the call, and there's different ways to do it. I
- 42:47Speaker 1: was under the assumption that you needed, you know, like
- 42:50Speaker 1: having that dude like Parsons was, and then the other
- 42:54Speaker 1: guys will kind of feed off of that. And nothing
- 42:57Speaker 1: against Tank because Tank was a you know, it's four
- 42:59Speaker 1: time pro and he was good and great in his
- 43:02Speaker 1: own right. I think though, looking at what Seattle did
- 43:06Speaker 1: you know it's a copycat league. And so now your
- 43:09Speaker 1: hope is can you get a lot of guys that
- 43:12Speaker 1: can just rush the passer? And and somebody's got to
- 43:15Speaker 1: take that leap? You know, is it gonna be as Aaku,
- 43:18Speaker 1: Is it gonna be Malachai Lawrence? What about Sam Williams?
- 43:21Speaker 1: Somebody needs to take that leap? And maybe Gary does
- 43:24Speaker 1: you know, it leaps into that role. But I think
- 43:27Speaker 1: what you need is you need four really good rushers.
- 43:32Speaker 1: Do you need one of them to be great preferred?
- 43:36Speaker 1: You know, because then you get that running back is
- 43:39Speaker 1: always chipping there and that takes another guy away. But
- 43:43Speaker 1: I think if you can get four guys that can
- 43:45Speaker 1: get home, and I will see if that group that
- 43:49Speaker 1: you just mentioned, let's see if four of them can
- 43:51Speaker 1: can get there. All right? Is that our last caller
- 43:54Speaker 1: for the day. That's gonna wrap it up at ten?
- 43:56Speaker 1: I like it. It was a it was a little
- 43:58Speaker 1: bit of a struggle there from from a guy over here,
- 44:01Speaker 1: but he got it. He did. It's always a struggle
- 44:03Speaker 1: to battle. It's a little different when you're out here
- 44:05Speaker 1: with the phone lines and one of them went down.
- 44:07Speaker 1: But I'm telling you, as I've said it to him
- 44:09Speaker 1: a billion times and I'll say it again, if I
- 44:12Speaker 1: needed one guy to be in a NASCAR pit crew,
- 44:16Speaker 1: it would be Chris Beam because not only is he
- 44:18Speaker 1: going to change the tires, the shocks lifted up, get
- 44:22Speaker 1: a full take of gas, he's going to do it
- 44:24Speaker 1: at about sixteen seconds. All right. That's good. That's that's
- 44:27Speaker 1: great for most things, and it's great for him and
- 44:30Speaker 1: he does that, all right. So that being said, for
- 44:33Speaker 1: Chris Bean, I'm Nick Heatman. We will see you next time,
- 44:36Speaker 1: and next time will be Wednesday. Here in Cowboys storyline,
- 44:40Speaker 1: but stay tuned too, we'll have Cowboys fence line on
- 44:45Speaker 1: the fence with the guys out there. We'll have a
- 44:47Speaker 1: couple of those segments today and we'll see what the
- 44:50Speaker 1: captains and all the others that have made the trip
- 44:53Speaker 1: out there. We'll see if they can we can put
- 44:54Speaker 1: together a pretty fun piece. But for Chris being I'm
- 44:56Speaker 1: Nick Keatman. See you next time on storyline.
- 44:59Speaker 9: This has been a pretty buck sho of dallascowboys dot
- 45:01Speaker 9: Com and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club
