- 0:10Speaker 2: Cowboys.
- 0:13Speaker 1: This is Cowboys Storyline, presented by Gillette, the official shave
- 0:19Speaker 1: of the Dallas Cowboys.
- 0:20Speaker 3: Here's Nick Eatman, Hello, and welcome to another edition of
- 0:28Speaker 3: Cowboys Storyline. And man, there's a lot of great storylines
- 0:32Speaker 3: for the Cowboys right now. Who would have thought, but
- 0:35Speaker 3: they've won three straight games, looking for a fourth as
- 0:38Speaker 3: they roll into Detroit Thursday.
- 0:41Speaker 2: Not really a short week.
- 0:42Speaker 3: It's a short weekdays for the Cowboys as they get
- 0:47Speaker 3: this thing turned around and travel on Wednesday for the
- 0:51Speaker 3: Thursday game. But it is seven days in between games
- 0:54Speaker 3: and then after the Detroit game, they'll have a little
- 0:56Speaker 3: bit of an extended break, but it would be a
- 1:00Speaker 3: nicer break if they've they've win four straight. Obviously, it's
- 1:04Speaker 3: been it's been. What a roller coaster season it's been.
- 1:07Speaker 3: But the Cowboys are on a roll right now and
- 1:10Speaker 3: you can thank the defense for stepping up. The offense
- 1:12Speaker 3: is continuing to do what they do and Cowboys have
- 1:16Speaker 3: defeated the last two Super Bowl teams that played in
- 1:20Speaker 3: the game, the Chiefs and the Eagles. We'll talk about
- 1:23Speaker 3: that we'll talk about the Lions and whatever you want
- 1:26Speaker 3: to talk about. Let's go eight eight eight, eight, five
- 1:28Speaker 3: five two to nine seven. I May from Napa, California
- 1:31Speaker 3: is first.
- 1:31Speaker 2: What's up?
- 1:33Speaker 4: Hey?
- 1:34Speaker 5: What's up?
- 1:34Speaker 6: Nick?
- 1:34Speaker 7: How you doing good? How are you always? I'm great, man,
- 1:38Speaker 7: I'm on a great run. Man, I mean Cowboys, you
- 1:40Speaker 7: know they're on a great run. I'm on a great run.
- 1:42Speaker 7: It was a great weekend. Got to spend family time.
- 1:46Speaker 7: My girls were home from college and man, cowboys wrapped
- 1:50Speaker 7: it up. We all got to watch the game together.
- 1:52Speaker 7: It was great. Man. I wanted to get in yesterday,
- 1:56Speaker 7: but you know, you're a busy man and it's hard
- 1:58Speaker 7: to get through sometimes. But I'm glad I made it today. Yeah,
- 2:03Speaker 7: I wanted to do. I wanted to talk about our defense.
- 2:07Speaker 7: Still a little worried about our middle linebacker situation, but
- 2:11Speaker 7: you know, it's just a few games.
- 2:12Speaker 6: Few games in.
- 2:13Speaker 7: With the new guys, I really feel like Kenny Clark
- 2:17Speaker 7: and Q they're they're really dominating the middle of the
- 2:21Speaker 7: of the of the line of scrimmage. It feels like
- 2:24Speaker 7: old school Sam Adams and uh Tony Sirah Gusa with
- 2:29Speaker 7: the Ravens where it's like those guys just plugged up
- 2:32Speaker 7: the middle that allowed everybody else to kind of do
- 2:34Speaker 7: their thing. And man, I am our our defense is
- 2:38Speaker 7: just really on a heater. It's like you said and
- 2:41Speaker 7: been saying all year and your articles and what you've
- 2:44Speaker 7: been saying on the storyline as far as like, we
- 2:47Speaker 7: don't need a dominant defense because our offense is so good,
- 2:49Speaker 7: so we just need somebody to slow the other team down,
- 2:53Speaker 7: get a stop here and there. And man, when we
- 2:55Speaker 7: put together back to backstops like we did with Ksey
- 2:59Speaker 7: and you know, obviously the Raiders, but you know Philly
- 3:02Speaker 7: eight stops.
- 3:03Speaker 8: In a row. You know, we put back to.
- 3:05Speaker 7: Back stops on teams like that, they just put so
- 3:08Speaker 7: much pressure on them because our offense is just you know,
- 3:12Speaker 7: chomping at the bit to get out there and score.
- 3:14Speaker 7: And you know, teams I think are scared to get
- 3:17Speaker 7: in track meets with us. So you know, it's just
- 3:19Speaker 7: it's great to see our defense.
- 3:21Speaker 9: Man.
- 3:22Speaker 7: Just yeah, it's just it's it's really fun to watch, man.
- 3:26Speaker 7: And I can't believe what it changed. It's been in
- 3:30Speaker 7: the course of a few weeks. Man, It's it's it's
- 3:34Speaker 7: gonna be a fun ride. I don't want to get
- 3:36Speaker 7: into all of the playoffs and all that stuff. Let's
- 3:40Speaker 7: just keep on playing and having fun and winning, man,
- 3:42Speaker 7: because I'm enjoying the ride and it just feels great. Man,
- 3:47Speaker 7: If you could just share a storyline with what you
- 3:50Speaker 7: think is going to happen with the game, because you know,
- 3:52Speaker 7: they ran it up on us last year, and I
- 3:54Speaker 7: hope we run it up on them, man, anything you'd
- 3:57Speaker 7: like to share storylines or anything like that. I mean,
- 4:00Speaker 7: just stories about the game or how you feel going
- 4:02Speaker 7: to go.
- 4:02Speaker 2: Thank you for the call.
- 4:03Speaker 3: I mean, we're gonna we're gonna keep it going here
- 4:06Speaker 3: on this day, we're.
- 4:07Speaker 9: Going to go.
- 4:08Speaker 2: I know you're excited. That's great.
- 4:09Speaker 3: A lot of people trying to get in. My storyline
- 4:14Speaker 3: for the game is that they've got to stop those
- 4:16Speaker 3: two running backs. That's what they've got to do. Figure
- 4:18Speaker 3: out a way to do that. It's going to be
- 4:19Speaker 3: their toughest test. Rebecca in Willow River, Minnesota, Rebecca, Hi,
- 4:24Speaker 3: how are you good?
- 4:25Speaker 2: How are you doing good?
- 4:27Speaker 10: I just got a confirmation from Chris. I've been listening
- 4:30Speaker 10: to your Cowboy talk show for over twenty years, since
- 4:33Speaker 10: the very beginning. Nice, I just wanted to through all that. Yeah,
- 4:36Speaker 10: I know, I feel pretty kind of like a little
- 4:38Speaker 10: flex over here for that. But anyways, so i'd just
- 4:41Speaker 10: like to say that I feel in the past few
- 4:43Speaker 10: years Cowboys have always had orphan say always that they've
- 4:45Speaker 10: tended to have better September and October football, and they
- 4:48Speaker 10: fall off for November and December. So I like to
- 4:50Speaker 10: think that we're turning it around this year and we've
- 4:53Speaker 10: been playing pretty well November, and let's just keep that
- 4:55Speaker 10: momentum going into December. But what I would really like
- 4:58Speaker 10: to see to build on that is some more are running.
- 5:00Speaker 10: So just maybe what your thoughts are and how we
- 5:03Speaker 10: can maybe dig more or lean more into that running
- 5:05Speaker 10: game as we go into December. So thanks go Cowboys.
- 5:09Speaker 3: Well, I think that that's obviously the key. Thank you
- 5:12Speaker 3: for the call the running game, both sides of the ball.
- 5:15Speaker 3: I mean that that's that's usually where it starts in
- 5:17Speaker 3: any any game. Anytime you're you're you're watching football, high school, college, pro,
- 5:22Speaker 3: I mean, you want to run the ball and you
- 5:24Speaker 3: want to stop the run. That's kind of where where
- 5:26Speaker 3: it begins.
- 5:27Speaker 2: Uh.
- 5:27Speaker 3: Teams like to throw it around and all that stuff,
- 5:30Speaker 3: but if they can run it and they can continue
- 5:33Speaker 3: to run it. That's that's what's going to happen. I
- 5:35Speaker 3: thought Jerry Jones had an interesting comment when he was
- 5:37Speaker 3: talking about that on on Tuesday on one O five
- 5:41Speaker 3: three the fin just talking about the fact that that
- 5:44Speaker 3: when they got in the playoffs, teams would run over them.
- 5:47Speaker 3: So so they've tried to, you know, build that line
- 5:50Speaker 3: of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. Now, now
- 5:53Speaker 3: talking about the Cowboys running game, that that has been
- 5:56Speaker 3: something that's been very impressive this year. They they've been
- 6:00Speaker 3: able to run it when they needed to. But you know,
- 6:03Speaker 3: more than that, I think it's dak in the receivers,
- 6:07Speaker 3: you know, because look at the Chiefs game. They they
- 6:10Speaker 3: you know, they obviously wanted to run out the clock.
- 6:12Speaker 2: They they didn't.
- 6:15Speaker 3: They couldn't run the ball for first downs, but they
- 6:17Speaker 3: were able to pass it. And so the trust of
- 6:19Speaker 3: the quarterback and the receivers and Shotty in the play
- 6:23Speaker 3: caller to say, all right, we're gonna we're gonna get
- 6:25Speaker 3: a first down one way or another. We're gonna run it,
- 6:27Speaker 3: gonna get a couple of yards here. That good thing
- 6:29Speaker 3: about Javonte Williams, he really doesn't take a lot of losses.
- 6:32Speaker 3: I mean, you don't see it a lot. Sometimes he'll
- 6:35Speaker 3: be stuffed at the line of scrimmage, but he will
- 6:37Speaker 3: kind of fight his way for one, two and those
- 6:39Speaker 3: those yards are big. I mean, it's definitely nice to
- 6:43Speaker 3: be in second and seven, second and eight. Uh, so
- 6:46Speaker 3: they can continue to kind of play downhill. And I
- 6:48Speaker 3: think Javante's done a really, really good job. He's a
- 6:51Speaker 3: power runner and he's a perfect compliment for what the
- 6:54Speaker 3: passing game provides.
- 6:55Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Steve. He's in Connecticut. Steve.
- 7:00Speaker 11: Hey, it's Pete in Connecticut.
- 7:01Speaker 4: How are you, Pete?
- 7:02Speaker 2: What's up, Pete?
- 7:02Speaker 11: Sorry, not much, man, got a snow day, so I'm
- 7:05Speaker 11: watching the kids today.
- 7:07Speaker 2: Yeah, how are you doing?
- 7:09Speaker 12: Good man.
- 7:10Speaker 11: I'm enjoying this winning streak. I got a nice little
- 7:13Speaker 11: winning streak beer going. So I just had two questions
- 7:17Speaker 11: for you real quick. Who do you think will end
- 7:19Speaker 11: the season with the most sacks on the team? And
- 7:22Speaker 11: do you think with tray Von coming back, he's a
- 7:24Speaker 11: little worried about potentially losing his roster spot to the
- 7:27Speaker 11: young guys that have been playing really well.
- 7:30Speaker 12: Thank you for taking my questions.
- 7:33Speaker 2: I'll answer the digs part.
- 7:34Speaker 3: I wish that was it, but I don't think so,
- 7:38Speaker 3: you know, I don't think that he's thinking he's worried
- 7:40Speaker 3: about young guys.
- 7:41Speaker 2: Taking his spot.
- 7:42Speaker 3: You know, guys get paid contract, big, big money. That's
- 7:48Speaker 3: that's the focus. And so that that that is the
- 7:51Speaker 3: case with him. I'm not saying it's all about the money,
- 7:53Speaker 3: but I don't think he's worried about that. Remember, have
- 7:56Speaker 3: you ever met a cornerback that wasn't a little bit
- 7:59Speaker 3: you know, cocky, little arrogant.
- 8:01Speaker 2: You have to be right. You're going up.
- 8:03Speaker 3: You're chasing the best wide receivers in the best athletes
- 8:06Speaker 3: really in the in the world, these wide receivers, and
- 8:08Speaker 3: so they all think that they can play, and they
- 8:11Speaker 3: think that they're the best, and Digs is no different.
- 8:13Speaker 3: And so I don't believe that he thinks that Revel
- 8:16Speaker 3: and Carson and any of these other guys are going
- 8:18Speaker 3: to take your spot. I think that, you know, he
- 8:21Speaker 3: wants to make sure he's ready to go, and I
- 8:22Speaker 3: think he sounds like he is and if the Cowboys,
- 8:25Speaker 3: you know, see fit, then he'll play. And so I
- 8:28Speaker 3: think I think the motivation for him is to go
- 8:30Speaker 3: out and just and just play football, and that he
- 8:32Speaker 3: feels like he's the best. He feels like he's better
- 8:34Speaker 3: than Bland and better than any other corner, and so
- 8:37Speaker 3: now it's time to go out and show it good.
- 8:39Speaker 3: Question on who's going to lead the team in sacks
- 8:42Speaker 3: are all kind of right there. You know, Houston will
- 8:46Speaker 3: get one every now and again, and he gets up
- 8:49Speaker 3: in there as a rock who I think maybe only
- 8:51Speaker 3: has the Well, I've got the whole list right here.
- 8:55Speaker 3: You know, I'm glad you asked. I'm glad I brought
- 8:58Speaker 3: this today. You know, Clowny's at four and Houston's at
- 9:02Speaker 3: four and a half I had as a rock. He's
- 9:05Speaker 3: not even in the in the list, so you've got
- 9:07Speaker 3: the you know, Clark Fowler Digezoo with three Quinnin Williams
- 9:12Speaker 3: is providing you know, a lot of pressures, but not.
- 9:15Speaker 2: Not so much.
- 9:16Speaker 3: He probably won't lead the team in that because he
- 9:18Speaker 3: did a lot of his with the Jets. So I
- 9:20Speaker 3: would say Clowney because I mean he's right behind Houston
- 9:23Speaker 3: and he's playing a little bit more and he's starting
- 9:25Speaker 3: to kind of, you know, get acclimated to this team.
- 9:29Speaker 3: And I was gonna say, figure it out, he's been
- 9:31Speaker 3: in the league forever, He's figured it out. He's just
- 9:33Speaker 3: got to get more acclimated. So I would guess Clowney
- 9:36Speaker 3: on that one. Let's take a break here real quick
- 9:38Speaker 3: on Cowboys storyline to be right back after.

- 11:14Speaker 1: It's a Cowboys storyline presented by Gillette, the official shave
- 11:19Speaker 1: of the Dallas Cowboys.
- 11:24Speaker 3: All right, welcome back to Cowboys storyline.
- 11:26Speaker 7: Man.
- 11:27Speaker 3: A lot of people have things to say and they're
- 11:29Speaker 3: excited about this Cowboys team here as they get into December.
- 11:35Speaker 3: Now we're we've turned the calendar to December, and this
- 11:38Speaker 3: is the this is the winning time. This is when
- 11:40Speaker 3: when you're going to make any kind of move. It's
- 11:42Speaker 3: got to be right now and a little bit before.
- 11:44Speaker 3: Because the Cowboys dug themselves.
- 11:46Speaker 2: In a hole and they're doing that, I don't know
- 11:47Speaker 2: if it's going to be enough.
- 11:49Speaker 3: It kind of feels like they're going to have to
- 11:51Speaker 3: win this thing out if they're going to be a
- 11:54Speaker 3: wild card, and unless the Eagles keep losing, then maybe
- 11:57Speaker 3: you know you have a chance to win the division
- 11:59Speaker 3: as well. But you know, you's got to keep the
- 12:01Speaker 3: blinders on and just win and just beat the Lions
- 12:03Speaker 3: and then see what else happens.
- 12:05Speaker 2: All right Jr? And Avondale Arizona Jr. What's up good man?
- 12:10Speaker 7: Hey?
- 12:11Speaker 12: So I believe that this is a two teams going
- 12:14Speaker 12: in different directions. I think the Lions are going down
- 12:17Speaker 12: and the Cowboys are heading up. They're cover one team
- 12:20Speaker 12: that just lost one of their best cornerbacks. Playing man
- 12:23Speaker 12: man against this receiver group in Dallas's quarterback isn't work
- 12:29Speaker 12: out for them. They their safeties don't cover well, but
- 12:33Speaker 12: they're big hitters. I think that goes for four hundred
- 12:36Speaker 12: yards in this game. Big days for the Lamb Ferduson
- 12:39Speaker 12: and Williams. They are all going to score on their
- 12:42Speaker 12: side of the ball. The major problems at centers so
- 12:45Speaker 12: bad that they tried to get a guy out of
- 12:47Speaker 12: retirement to take up the slack. Golf is fifty percent
- 12:51Speaker 12: less effective when pressured up in the middle, and one of
- 12:54Speaker 12: the Cowboys have become very good, and that's on the
- 12:57Speaker 12: defense in the middle. Cowboys win this game thirty four thirteen.
- 13:03Speaker 12: So I got a great day. Go Cowboys.
- 13:06Speaker 2: All right.
- 13:07Speaker 3: Seems a little high as far as like the final
- 13:10Speaker 3: score twenty one points, But you know, for all those
- 13:14Speaker 3: things that you said, I mean, you could be right
- 13:16Speaker 3: about that as far as two teams headed in different directions.
- 13:21Speaker 3: You know, they barely beat the Giants, but you know,
- 13:23Speaker 3: so do the Cowboys.
- 13:25Speaker 2: Way back when.
- 13:27Speaker 3: And they lost a close game, you know, at home
- 13:30Speaker 3: to the Packers, and the Cowboys were kind of right
- 13:32Speaker 3: there with the Packers tied the game, so you know
- 13:34Speaker 3: it could be an even even game. But but those
- 13:37Speaker 3: two games I'm talking about with the Cowboys were way
- 13:39Speaker 3: back in September, and they're obviously a different team.
- 13:42Speaker 2: Now.
- 13:42Speaker 3: You make some really good points about the center and
- 13:46Speaker 3: for the Lions and golf being pressured. You look back
- 13:49Speaker 3: the last couple of games, you know, Hurts went for
- 13:51Speaker 3: thirty yards. I believe rushing Mahmes had thirty yards or
- 13:54Speaker 3: thirty three yards or whatever. Gof's probably not going to
- 13:57Speaker 3: do that, you know. So then again gives is it
- 14:01Speaker 3: gives a Montgomery or just a that's just a different
- 14:04Speaker 3: animal there. But uh, if they don't have Saint Brown,
- 14:07Speaker 3: which it looks like he probably won't play the little
- 14:09Speaker 3: Ports already out for their tied end, then yeah, they
- 14:12Speaker 3: are down some of their key weapons that have made
- 14:15Speaker 3: them so explosive. So but you know, Dan Campbell, Let's
- 14:18Speaker 3: see see what happens with him. He's going to have
- 14:20Speaker 3: something up a leeve for sure. Chris in Saratoga Springs
- 14:24Speaker 3: is next.
- 14:25Speaker 8: Hey, Nick, how are you good?
- 14:26Speaker 2: Are you not too bad?
- 14:28Speaker 8: Great? Thanksgiving? Great Cowboys win. Looking for four in a
- 14:31Speaker 8: row there would be outstanding. I want to give a
- 14:35Speaker 8: shout out to somebody I've been very critical on lately, Turpin.
- 14:39Speaker 8: That play he made in that game, sit in my eyes,
- 14:43Speaker 8: saved the game. That funnel recovery. What a number legal
- 14:46Speaker 8: play by Turpin. I still don't believe he should be
- 14:49Speaker 8: the running back and getting any handoffs, but that play,
- 14:52Speaker 8: single handedly, that play he made save the game for me.
- 14:57Speaker 8: So I would want to give a shout out to Turp.
- 15:00Speaker 8: My other thing is the Cowboys signed the kid from
- 15:04Speaker 8: Pittsburgh Israel Abacanda. Is that correct?
- 15:07Speaker 2: I believe? So, yeah, isn't.
- 15:10Speaker 8: I'm bigger than the draft guy. I remember I went
- 15:12Speaker 8: to Ohio for the draft, and I remember, if my
- 15:15Speaker 8: memory serves me correct, he was one of those players
- 15:18Speaker 8: in the magazine you guys sent out. It was like
- 15:20Speaker 8: a fit for the Cowboys. Is that correct.
- 15:22Speaker 3: I can't remember if he was a fit, you know,
- 15:24Speaker 3: I don't remember that part, but I do remember him
- 15:26Speaker 3: being in the conversation for a guy that you know
- 15:30Speaker 3: was one of the top backs or one of the
- 15:32Speaker 3: top ten or something like that. So yeah, I mean,
- 15:34Speaker 3: you don't forget his name. You may forget how to
- 15:36Speaker 3: pronounce it, but you don't forget his name.
- 15:38Speaker 2: And yeah, he was definitely he was definitely in there.
- 15:41Speaker 8: Yeah, so I'm glad we picked him up. But again,
- 15:44Speaker 8: that's all I got. I just wanted to get a
- 15:46Speaker 8: shout out to Turf because I've been critical of him
- 15:48Speaker 8: with some of his drops and stuff. But that play
- 15:49Speaker 8: for me, was saved us the games. So that's all
- 15:52Speaker 8: I got. And have a good rest of your day now.
- 15:54Speaker 2: All right, thank you. I mean he's the lowest guy
- 15:58Speaker 2: to the ground, you know.
- 16:00Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not trying to be funny, it is
- 16:02Speaker 3: I mean, he should he should be able to get
- 16:04Speaker 3: that ball. And he I tell you, he just he
- 16:08Speaker 3: just makes these plays and he's a head scratcher. Sometimes
- 16:12Speaker 3: he does some stuff and he just those guys that
- 16:15Speaker 3: think they can score on every single play. They're scary
- 16:18Speaker 3: for everyone because they're scary for the defense because they
- 16:21Speaker 3: can score on every play. And they're scary for the
- 16:24Speaker 3: offense too because they're gonna try to score on every play,
- 16:27Speaker 3: and sometimes they backtrack and and but he is, he's
- 16:32Speaker 3: just a dynamic player and it's fun to have him
- 16:35Speaker 3: on the team.
- 16:36Speaker 2: I'm with you.
- 16:36Speaker 3: I don't know if we need you know, runs from him,
- 16:39Speaker 3: but you say that, and then he kind of goes
- 16:42Speaker 3: for what he had, like a twenty yard run or
- 16:44Speaker 3: twenty five yard run. He's just he's just a dynamic player.
- 16:46Speaker 3: He's fun to watch. And when when he surrounded with
- 16:49Speaker 3: these other guys, especially these other receivers, every now and again,
- 16:52Speaker 3: he's gonna be right open, you know, down down the field,
- 16:56Speaker 3: and having him in the slot is really big. Because
- 16:59Speaker 3: that's safety. He has to know he's there, and he is.
- 17:02Speaker 3: He does open some things up, just his speed alone,
- 17:05Speaker 3: just the threat alone, opened some things up for these
- 17:08Speaker 3: other receivers. All right, let's go to Dylan in Northport, Florida.
- 17:11Speaker 7: Dylan, Hey, Nick, how's it going?
- 17:13Speaker 2: Hey? What's up?
- 17:15Speaker 12: Hey?
- 17:16Speaker 11: So these lines, man, they are right for the pickings
- 17:19Speaker 11: pun intended. They're starting quarterback cornerback. Arnold just went to
- 17:23Speaker 11: ir defense is pretty beat up. They're on the other
- 17:26Speaker 11: side of the ball. I'm and Ross and Brown and
- 17:29Speaker 11: Laporta's out. Old Lion is playing poorly. They're pretty beat up.
- 17:33Speaker 11: So if it gets into a track meet, cowboys are
- 17:35Speaker 11: gonna win hands down the lines before all the injuries
- 17:39Speaker 11: are formula was to stay ahead of the change, stay
- 17:41Speaker 11: ahead on the scoreboard. And so if you can get
- 17:43Speaker 11: them into some like thirty mediums third and eight thirty nine,
- 17:46Speaker 11: and you're with your interior pressure in golf face, it's
- 17:49Speaker 11: it's over.
- 17:49Speaker 7: Man.
- 17:49Speaker 11: He's not mobile, he doesn't run, the ball doesn't scramble,
- 17:53Speaker 11: and so everything on paper, let's not play on paper,
- 17:56Speaker 11: but everything on paper lines up for a what I
- 17:59Speaker 11: think is going to be blowout. Personally, I think the
- 18:01Speaker 11: Cowboys blow them out, and the Lion season, I think
- 18:04Speaker 11: it's gonna be thirty four to maybe twenty one, twenty four,
- 18:06Speaker 11: but it wouldn't shock me if the Cowboys put up forty.
- 18:08Speaker 3: All right, all right, good stuff. You guys are really confident.
- 18:12Speaker 3: I'm starting to start to get me a little worried
- 18:14Speaker 3: about it because I still think desperate teams are are
- 18:21Speaker 3: dangerous and the Cowboys they have to continue to be
- 18:26Speaker 3: that desperate team. And it's tough to kind of carry
- 18:29Speaker 3: on this same mindset over and over and over every
- 18:32Speaker 3: single game, every single week.
- 18:34Speaker 2: But that's what they have to have.
- 18:36Speaker 9: Now.
- 18:37Speaker 3: The Lions are desperately you know, they're definitely sorry a
- 18:40Speaker 3: desperate team, but the Cowboys have to match that, you know.
- 18:44Speaker 3: And what did what did Dan Campbell say when he
- 18:46Speaker 3: first got the job. We're gonna bite kneecaps and stuff
- 18:48Speaker 3: like that. All those things that you just said are true,
- 18:51Speaker 3: and it sounds like, man, this this is gonna be tough.
- 18:53Speaker 3: But it's the NFL. It's the NFL, and they have
- 18:57Speaker 3: really good players. I mean they and they have speed,
- 19:00Speaker 3: you know, speed kills. We know that Jamier Gibbs is
- 19:04Speaker 3: as good as running back as there is in the league.
- 19:07Speaker 3: You know, Jamison Williams is a is a really good
- 19:10Speaker 3: explosive player. So they they've got weapons and they and
- 19:14Speaker 3: they've got a quarterback that's very accurate when when he's protected,
- 19:17Speaker 3: and he can be a very accurate quarterback. So I
- 19:21Speaker 3: don't I'm not in for the for the blowout. I
- 19:24Speaker 3: don't know about that. I think things are aligning correctly
- 19:28Speaker 3: for the Cowboys, though, You're right when when their cornerback
- 19:31Speaker 3: is now going to I are the Cowboys get you know,
- 19:33Speaker 3: a better cornerback than him, and Trayvon Diggs back and
- 19:37Speaker 3: he's back to cover a wide receiver group that's probably
- 19:41Speaker 3: gonna be out. Uh Saint Brown and and and Laporta
- 19:45Speaker 3: is already out. So it's looking it's looking good for
- 19:49Speaker 3: the Cowboys. But they got to go up there ready
- 19:51Speaker 3: to go, because I can promise you that place is
- 19:53Speaker 3: gonna be loud, it's gonna be intense, it's gonna be
- 19:56Speaker 3: it's gonna be a fun game. But if the Cowboys,
- 19:59Speaker 3: like you said, you know, they bring the paper and
- 20:02Speaker 3: they play, they play with with that paper with what
- 20:06Speaker 3: it says on there, then they should go out there
- 20:08Speaker 3: and should be able to win this game.
- 20:09Speaker 2: But we'll see.
- 20:10Speaker 3: All right, let's go to break again on Cowboys storyline

- 21:25Speaker 3: All right, welcome back to Cowboys storyline presented by Gillette.
- 21:29Speaker 3: Got the TV portion mostly out of the way, and
- 21:32Speaker 3: we can officially say it's Tuesday. We know it's Tuesday,
- 21:35Speaker 3: December second, leaving tomorrow, going to going to Detroit. Haven't
- 21:40Speaker 3: gone been there in a while if it feels like
- 21:43Speaker 3: twenty nineteen, So it's been. It's been a little bit.
- 21:46Speaker 3: But it's always a cool stadium. You know, it's not
- 21:49Speaker 3: it's not cool when the Lions are scoring a lot
- 21:51Speaker 3: of points or Calvin Johnson's going for three hundred yards
- 21:54Speaker 3: or something like that, Like that's not not really fun.
- 21:56Speaker 3: But you know, the atmosphere is a good atmosphere. And
- 21:59Speaker 3: it's one of those open places, open stadium where you know,
- 22:02Speaker 3: it's not like you can you can't really hear the
- 22:04Speaker 3: person next to you, and so you know it's a
- 22:06Speaker 3: good time. So, uh, should be should be a lot
- 22:08Speaker 3: of fun. All right, Let's go to Lewis and Langston, Oklahoma,
- 22:12Speaker 3: and what's going on?
- 22:13Speaker 2: Hey, Lewis not much.
- 22:16Speaker 18: I kind of cot the tailing of your uh right
- 22:19Speaker 18: before breaks, and so it kind of brought me into
- 22:21Speaker 18: my question was now that Trayvon Diggs's back, I was
- 22:25Speaker 18: trying to figure out who would be your starting three
- 22:27Speaker 18: because with uh, what I've noticed is Reddy Stewart plays
- 22:33Speaker 18: the that nickel position really really well. Yeah, and then
- 22:37Speaker 18: with Carson coming back and Jiggs coming back and what's
- 22:42Speaker 18: his name, Savonne Reveel, Yeah, and then look, I can't
- 22:47Speaker 18: think his name now, but you know, so will be
- 22:50Speaker 18: your starting three? I know they rotate everybody that's evil
- 22:53Speaker 18: flew his thing, so I don't know. But as far
- 22:56Speaker 18: as when you start the game, who you are running
- 22:58Speaker 18: out there, because I know for sure I want my
- 23:00Speaker 18: two pro bowlers out there, But as far as what
- 23:03Speaker 18: we're gonna do as far as the nickel or outside boundary,
- 23:06Speaker 18: he still kind of throws me off. And then what
- 23:08Speaker 18: I was gonna say was, well, I drew a blank.
- 23:12Speaker 18: So if I give a chance, I'll call back or
- 23:14Speaker 18: I'll talk to you later after the game. So those
- 23:16Speaker 18: that was my main question.
- 23:18Speaker 3: Okay, I can talk about the corner bank. Thank you
- 23:20Speaker 3: for the call, Lewis. I'm looking at the roster right now,
- 23:24Speaker 3: which does not include Trayvon because he's not he hasn't
- 23:27Speaker 3: been moved to the roster. But if he does, remember
- 23:30Speaker 3: they have to make it move for that, so it
- 23:33Speaker 3: could be could be one of these, one of these corners.
- 23:38Speaker 3: I just have a hard time thinking that they'll do that. Bland, Stewart, Carson, Revel,
- 23:43Speaker 3: and Bridges. That's five corners. Diggs would be the sixth.
- 23:49Speaker 3: That seems seems hogh. I mean, you have to you
- 23:52Speaker 3: have to make a move there. So you know, the
- 23:56Speaker 3: last few games, Bland, Stewart, Carson, Revel, and Bridges have
- 24:00Speaker 3: all been active. So I would imagine maybe Choqueasy Bridges
- 24:05Speaker 3: is not active for this game. I don't know who
- 24:07Speaker 3: the roster spot would be. They can, they can figure
- 24:10Speaker 3: some things out there, But you know you you're my
- 24:15Speaker 3: starting three are probably going to be Bland, Digs and
- 24:18Speaker 3: then Stewart just because he plays the nickel. But but yeah,
- 24:22Speaker 3: I'd like to see Carson and Revel and those guys
- 24:24Speaker 3: as well. Good problem to have, all right, Robbie Koco Beach, Florida.
- 24:28Speaker 19: Hey, Nick, are we still in that super hurry up mode?
- 24:31Speaker 2: I'll say yes, but you do your you do your thing.
- 24:35Speaker 7: Okay, I'll go. I appreciate you.
- 24:37Speaker 9: Man.
- 24:37Speaker 2: We're not we're not in the.
- 24:38Speaker 3: Hurry up offense. We know, like we're not in the
- 24:41Speaker 3: like final thirty seconds of the game. But it's about
- 24:45Speaker 3: two minutes to go, and we got it.
- 24:46Speaker 2: You know, we gotta move, all.
- 24:48Speaker 19: Right, I'll move then. I do have a couple of
- 24:50Speaker 19: things I wanted to say. First, I don't notice the
- 24:52Speaker 19: final score, but I think Cowboys win relatively big, and
- 24:55Speaker 19: they get some garbage time touchdowns at the end, but
- 24:58Speaker 19: I think we choke them out early. However, what you
- 25:02Speaker 19: said has really got me worried, and it's really might
- 25:05Speaker 19: making me think because everybody feels this way and all
- 25:07Speaker 19: the papers shows it, this could easily be a trap game.
- 25:10Speaker 19: We just won three games, hard bought games. I just
- 25:15Speaker 19: but for some reason, I don't see our offense and
- 25:18Speaker 19: this first one, I don't share our offense letting off
- 25:20Speaker 19: the gas. I don't share coach letting off the gas
- 25:23Speaker 19: and let the trap game happen.
- 25:26Speaker 5: Number two, I'd like.
- 25:27Speaker 19: To shout out to a damn Tyler Booker when he
- 25:30Speaker 19: said he wanted to take the love out of the
- 25:32Speaker 19: game for people. What he did to Chris Jones. Holy
- 25:35Speaker 19: smokes man, what he's done all year. He is a
- 25:38Speaker 19: man grown, that's for sure. And other than that, I
- 25:41Speaker 19: hope you had a great Thanksgiving. And if I have
- 25:44Speaker 19: the guest score thirty one thirteen.
- 25:48Speaker 3: Thirty one, have a good one, sir, all right, thank you.
- 25:53Speaker 3: You know, I just it's if the Cowboys let this
- 25:56Speaker 3: become a trap game, then shame on them. I mean, really,
- 26:00Speaker 3: they have no room for air. They don't and that's
- 26:04Speaker 3: because of the hole that they dug themselves in. So
- 26:08Speaker 3: this can't be a trap game. I mean, it's on
- 26:11Speaker 3: the road, it's a I'm just kinda once I really
- 26:17Speaker 3: think about it, and I think if you all think
- 26:19Speaker 3: of it this way, anybody that was on the field
- 26:22Speaker 3: last year when Detroit beat them forty seven to nine
- 26:26Speaker 3: at home on Jerry's birthday, forty seven to nine, there's
- 26:30Speaker 3: no way this will be a trap game. This is
- 26:33Speaker 3: this team's favorite to beat you, Detroit's three point favorite.
- 26:36Speaker 3: They're at home. They're just as desperate, if not more
- 26:39Speaker 3: than you. They're banged up, fine, but no one's feel
- 26:43Speaker 3: sorry for them. No one feel sorry for the Cowboys
- 26:45Speaker 3: when they were banged up and they went in there
- 26:47Speaker 3: and trick played your ass to death for forty seven
- 26:50Speaker 3: points and kept scoring with offensive linemen and all this
- 26:54Speaker 3: cool stuff. So no, if it's if it's a trap game,
- 26:58Speaker 3: then that's on the Cowboys for being trapped, because because
- 27:02Speaker 3: this is this should hit you right in the face,
- 27:05Speaker 3: just like they did forty seven times last year. Sebastian
- 27:09Speaker 3: Savannah Georgia, it's up.
- 27:11Speaker 20: Good morning, mister, even how you doing good?
- 27:12Speaker 2: How are you?
- 27:14Speaker 20: I'm good, good man. Shout out to Troy, Allen and
- 27:16Speaker 20: Zach in the YouTube chat. Those boys always told down
- 27:19Speaker 20: the YouTube chat while we're going, that's that's the special
- 27:21Speaker 20: teams for real over there, nice, I got us going
- 27:25Speaker 20: twenty eight, twenty seven. I think we control the game
- 27:28Speaker 20: most of the game and get out with the win.
- 27:29Speaker 20: And I think it's going to come down as coaches decisions.
- 27:32Speaker 20: Dan Campbell's the man is gonna gamble. We're about to
- 27:34Speaker 20: see every trick play they have.
- 27:36Speaker 7: No one does not.
- 27:37Speaker 20: Show up for the Cowboys when the Cowboys name comes
- 27:40Speaker 20: on next plate. They're all looking to show out. They're
- 27:42Speaker 20: all looking to make a name for themselves. So I
- 27:43Speaker 20: don't think we can just run away with it in
- 27:44Speaker 20: this game. But we should control the game.
- 27:46Speaker 7: And beat them.
- 27:47Speaker 20: Yea, as far as one of my favorite things I
- 27:50Speaker 20: was thinking about is gp environment matters, Nick, Like, Yeah,
- 27:55Speaker 20: in Pittsburgh you were getting picked on. In Georgia, you
- 27:58Speaker 20: had your issues, right, you found a family, you have
- 28:01Speaker 20: an enjoyable experience. And every time I watch him, I
- 28:03Speaker 20: see two of my favorite receivers just on the field,
- 28:05Speaker 20: Steve Smith and the player as we'll call him. And
- 28:09Speaker 20: I just I think, because we don't have Michael, we
- 28:12Speaker 20: have the money to sign him, and I think he'll
- 28:14Speaker 20: cost a lot less than Michael was going to cost us.
- 28:16Speaker 20: Obviously Michael went for forty one. But you can give
- 28:18Speaker 20: more money somewhere else. You can't find this environment anywhere else.
- 28:22Speaker 7: Yeah, and you have a great.
- 28:22Speaker 2: Day now, thank you.
- 28:23Speaker 3: And you know, Sebastian, that's what des Brian is trying
- 28:28Speaker 3: to tell George Pickens's He's tweeted it, I've heard him
- 28:32Speaker 3: say it. He wants to talk to him, he wants
- 28:35Speaker 3: to explain to him about that, about the environment, how
- 28:37Speaker 3: different it is. You can get more money, like you said,
- 28:39Speaker 3: in other places. Now, the problem here with that is
- 28:46Speaker 3: this is where the agent steps in and sometimes and
- 28:51Speaker 3: I don't know all these agent I don't know hardly
- 28:53Speaker 3: any agents, and I certainly don't know their relationship with
- 28:55Speaker 3: the players. But this is where the agent can kind
- 28:59Speaker 3: of mess up the whole thing because everybody has an agenda.
- 29:04Speaker 3: Obviously we know that. But the agent's the not the
- 29:08Speaker 3: one that's here in the building. He's not the one
- 29:11Speaker 3: seeing he's not the one that can compare what he had.
- 29:14Speaker 2: In Pittsburgh what he has here and all that.
- 29:17Speaker 3: That's where the player has to step up and say,
- 29:19Speaker 3: you know what, I understand that this team is offering this,
- 29:24Speaker 3: but you know it's it'll be beneficial for me to
- 29:28Speaker 3: be here with this team. And remember why this team
- 29:33Speaker 3: has cap problems. You know, well the Cowboys have cat problems.
- 29:36Speaker 3: They can't pay you as much. Well, why do they
- 29:38Speaker 3: have cat problems? Because they have good freaking players. They
- 29:42Speaker 3: have a quarterback that's really good, throws me the ball,
- 29:44Speaker 3: have a receiver on the other side that's taking away
- 29:47Speaker 3: a lot of double teams. We got a lot of
- 29:49Speaker 3: defensive tackles now that are eating up the middle and
- 29:53Speaker 3: force teams to pass it. And now we're getting the
- 29:55Speaker 3: ball back quicker. So there's a reason why this team
- 29:58Speaker 3: has cap issues because they go some good players, that's
- 30:01Speaker 3: not always a bad thing. So those are some of
- 30:03Speaker 3: the things that he's gonna you know, he has to
- 30:05Speaker 3: figure out. And that's where the agent can help. Agents
- 30:08Speaker 3: trying to give you the most money possible, but you
- 30:11Speaker 3: also got to put your player in the best situation possible.
- 30:15Speaker 3: And I think that with Sebastian sand and I agree
- 30:17Speaker 3: with is that you know it can be Dallas even
- 30:20Speaker 3: if it's not the highest dollar amount that he could
- 30:23Speaker 3: possibly get.
- 30:25Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Kevin in New Jersey.
- 30:28Speaker 4: Hey, Nick, what's going on?
- 30:29Speaker 2: So, man, how are you?
- 30:31Speaker 9: I'm doing good?
- 30:32Speaker 4: I call a bunch of times in the past. I'm
- 30:34Speaker 4: the guy in Jersey with four sons, all Cowboys fans.
- 30:37Speaker 9: Father in law is.
- 30:38Speaker 4: A big Eagle fan.
- 30:40Speaker 2: Wow. So last week was great, Kevin.
- 30:44Speaker 3: I just gotta say, I mean, that sounds like four
- 30:47Speaker 3: wins in a row for you. I mean, because that's
- 30:50Speaker 3: not easy to do right.
- 30:51Speaker 8: There, right the father.
- 30:53Speaker 4: I definitely want the father in law. What's here for Thanksgiving?
- 30:57Speaker 4: So it was nice to kind of rub that in
- 30:59Speaker 4: a little bit. But I will say I took some
- 31:02Speaker 4: time off from calling in and from listening to the
- 31:05Speaker 4: show I mean, I'm back religiously now. But the problem
- 31:09Speaker 4: was I I spent all this time. I saved up
- 31:13Speaker 4: a whole bunch of money. And I think I was
- 31:15Speaker 4: telling you last year, like I flew my whole family
- 31:17Speaker 4: down to Dallas to see a game. Yeah, well that's
- 31:23Speaker 4: where I.
- 31:24Speaker 8: Was going with it.
- 31:24Speaker 2: Yeah, I remember this.
- 31:26Speaker 4: Yeah, So I took like twenty years to save up
- 31:28Speaker 4: the money to take all four of my kids down.
- 31:30Speaker 4: They're all like adults now. But you know, I thought
- 31:32Speaker 4: it was gonna be a really, really awesome thing to do,
- 31:34Speaker 4: and it was to a degree, except it was the
- 31:37Speaker 4: Lions game. And the problem with it is that they
- 31:42Speaker 4: they just didn't show up in that game. If you remember,
- 31:45Speaker 4: they didn't score a touchdown. And even worse than that,
- 31:49Speaker 4: the whole row in front of me was this huge
- 31:51Speaker 4: family of Lions fans and there were all these little
- 31:53Speaker 4: kids with their jerseys on and they had the best time,
- 31:56Speaker 4: and they were just sitting right in front of us
- 31:59Speaker 4: in you know, in in Cowboys at and T Stadium.
- 32:01Speaker 4: So I guess the reason I'm calling is because I
- 32:05Speaker 4: feel like I could get back if the Cowboys you
- 32:09Speaker 4: show up on Thursday against the Lions, you know what
- 32:12Speaker 4: I'm saying. Yeah, it's not that you know, you get
- 32:16Speaker 4: you know, spiteful, You get resentful because things happen, but
- 32:18Speaker 4: you don't have any control over it. But I will
- 32:20Speaker 4: say I'm back on board as a fan. And you
- 32:24Speaker 4: know it doesn't take long, right because you're a fan forever.
- 32:27Speaker 4: But when Jerry made the moves, it it really solidified
- 32:31Speaker 4: my safe in the team and the future and moving forward.
- 32:33Speaker 4: But they really want to get me back, Just show
- 32:37Speaker 4: up on Thursday night. I'm going to leave it at that.
- 32:39Speaker 4: And you know, enjoy nick great and great shows that
- 32:43Speaker 4: talks you fight.
- 32:44Speaker 2: All right.
- 32:45Speaker 3: You know it's funny some people ask for a lot
- 32:48Speaker 3: on Christmas. Some people don't ask for a lot. You know,
- 32:51Speaker 3: it's just they don't need a lot. What Kevin in
- 32:54Speaker 3: is in New Jersey needs, Hey, Sanna, Kevin in New
- 32:57Speaker 3: Jersey just needs the cowboys.
- 32:59Speaker 2: To show up. Just show up. That's it. I feel
- 33:03Speaker 2: like Santa has a lot more request than that. Good stuff.
- 33:07Speaker 2: Then all right, let's go Steve in New York.
- 33:10Speaker 21: Steve, Hey, what's going on?
- 33:12Speaker 2: How how are you all right?
- 33:14Speaker 21: Keep it real quick. I give me thirty four to
- 33:16Speaker 21: thirty one cowboys, and I just want to say, you know,
- 33:20Speaker 21: trap game. If you could call this game one hundred things,
- 33:24Speaker 21: trap game is not one of them. Yeah. Now listen,
- 33:28Speaker 21: trap game to me is when like you're twelve and
- 33:30Speaker 21: two or something and you're fighting for playoff position. Yeah,
- 33:34Speaker 21: it's not a trap game. I have to to just
- 33:37Speaker 21: you know, go out take care of business.
- 33:40Speaker 9: Right.
- 33:40Speaker 21: Well, what you were talking about earlier this game for
- 33:43Speaker 21: a few reasons personally, you know, I live in New York.
- 33:47Speaker 21: Obviously I flew down there last year for that game,
- 33:51Speaker 21: the forty seven to nine game. Okay, quite possibly one
- 33:55Speaker 21: of the worst football games that I've ever watched. So
- 33:59Speaker 21: and I don't know if it nobody mentioned this at
- 34:01Speaker 21: the time, but when they were kneeling down to the
- 34:03Speaker 21: last play, they called the tackle eligible like they reported
- 34:08Speaker 21: someone eligible. I don't know if anybody picked up on that,
- 34:12Speaker 21: because remember what happened the year before.
- 34:14Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 34:14Speaker 21: Yeah, so you know, I know we played for the Cowboys,
- 34:18Speaker 21: and you know I loved them at the time. But
- 34:20Speaker 21: this is the coach that's going to have this team
- 34:23Speaker 21: ready to go on Thursday. Talk about Dan Campbell. So
- 34:25Speaker 21: have to match the intensity before anything else.
- 34:28Speaker 3: Yeah, Now you're you're exactly right, You're exactly right, all right,
- 34:32Speaker 3: Steve A great.
- 34:33Speaker 2: We appreciate that.
- 34:35Speaker 9: You know.
- 34:36Speaker 3: One thing that you kind of forget sometimes. I don't
- 34:40Speaker 3: know if you guys do I you know, this is
- 34:42Speaker 3: this is the first year obviously of Brian Schottenhammer being
- 34:45Speaker 3: the head coach. You know, he's a first year coach.
- 34:48Speaker 3: But you know, I think the good thing about it
- 34:52Speaker 3: is is that it's not his first year here, you know,
- 34:54Speaker 3: so he's been around for a couple of years, so
- 34:56Speaker 3: he knows the players, He's got a relationship with them
- 34:59Speaker 3: a little bit. But he is still doing things like,
- 35:02Speaker 3: you know, like a first year coach and changing some
- 35:05Speaker 3: things around culture stuff all that.
- 35:07Speaker 2: But he was here.
- 35:09Speaker 3: That's what my point I'm trying to make is that
- 35:11Speaker 3: he remembers. He remembers that, he remembers what Dan Campbell
- 35:16Speaker 3: and those guys did and and you know, did they
- 35:19Speaker 3: have some fun.
- 35:20Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 35:20Speaker 3: They did, they did, and they they they that's the
- 35:22Speaker 3: way they play, you know, And you can you can
- 35:25Speaker 3: say that all day, you know, you can kind of
- 35:27Speaker 3: hide behind that, Hey, we coach our team. I don't
- 35:30Speaker 3: worry about anyone else. We're gonna keep playing until sixty
- 35:33Speaker 3: minutes is up. Fine, you know what that is. That
- 35:37Speaker 3: is okay to do that. Just remember that. People do
- 35:41Speaker 3: remember and and they'll you know, I'm not saying, and
- 35:45Speaker 3: you know what, Shoddy probably won't. You know, you get
- 35:48Speaker 3: in a situation like that, He's probably not gonna do
- 35:51Speaker 3: all that. But they're talking about it this week. I
- 35:53Speaker 3: would imagine and and and they haven't forgotten that kind
- 35:57Speaker 3: of stuff.
- 35:57Speaker 2: And they know.
- 35:58Speaker 3: You know, when you're going into a game like that,
- 36:00Speaker 3: when you're going into anything, and you know, going up
- 36:02Speaker 3: against the bully, you better be prepared for it. So
- 36:06Speaker 3: you know, he didn't like the way that ended two
- 36:08Speaker 3: years ago. He shouldn't have cheated. I mean, he shouldn't.
- 36:10Speaker 3: That's simple as that. He shouldn't have tried to cheat.
- 36:12Speaker 3: That's what they did. They tried to get cute. They
- 36:14Speaker 3: tried to have Pinasu will go over here and say
- 36:16Speaker 3: he was tackle eligible and all that, But it really
- 36:18Speaker 3: was the other guy. Guess what, guess who didn't fool
- 36:20Speaker 3: for it. I'd fall for it, the refs and so
- 36:23Speaker 3: you know, you didn't get away with it all and
- 36:25Speaker 3: all that, you lost the game. They came back the
- 36:27Speaker 3: next year and Cowboys were definitely shorthanded, not as good.
- 36:30Speaker 3: Not a good team, and Detroit manhandled him. But we'll
- 36:34Speaker 3: see what happens this year, you know.
- 36:35Speaker 2: I mean, what.
- 36:36Speaker 3: Goes around definitely comes around. Aaron and Fort Wayne, Indiana.
- 36:41Speaker 5: Hey, hry Nick, Good, how are you doing well, sir?
- 36:45Speaker 5: I hope you had a great Thanksgiving. Definitely enjoyed that
- 36:48Speaker 5: game Thursday afternoon. My folks live in Kansas City, so
- 36:53Speaker 5: Dad's always been a lifelong Kansas City fan. So oddly
- 36:57Speaker 5: enough I didn't hear from him after the game, but
- 36:59Speaker 5: U funny, it's okay, yeah, here for Christmas. So anyway, Hey,
- 37:04Speaker 5: just wanted to.
- 37:04Speaker 8: Chick back in. Man.
- 37:05Speaker 5: We've got two of those three in a row that
- 37:07Speaker 5: we had to win, and I feel good about going
- 37:10Speaker 5: into the game Thursday night against the Lions. So some
- 37:14Speaker 5: of what you were just saying there, and uh, you know,
- 37:17Speaker 5: last year we were so beat up and so injured,
- 37:19Speaker 5: you know, we didn't have a chance. But this year,
- 37:22Speaker 5: I think we're playing with a lot of optimism. We're
- 37:24Speaker 5: playing a lot of a lot of heart right now,
- 37:26Speaker 5: and that's good. I just had a quick a couple
- 37:28Speaker 5: of quick questions. I think this running game Detroit has,
- 37:32Speaker 5: you know, it's definitely uh pretty stout. So I think
- 37:34Speaker 5: this is gonna be a real test to see, you know,
- 37:37Speaker 5: how far we've come defending the run and being able
- 37:40Speaker 5: to stop the run. And then too, what do you
- 37:42Speaker 5: think about Dan Campbell's play calling? You know, it looks
- 37:45Speaker 5: like he's calling plays this year and and you know,
- 37:48Speaker 5: I know that might be in his background a little bit,
- 37:49Speaker 5: but uh, do you think that had an impact on
- 37:52Speaker 5: on you know, how potent that offense you know was
- 37:55Speaker 5: previously to maybe what we're you know, seeing from him
- 37:58Speaker 5: this year. Anyway, I'll hang out, go go Cowboys, man,
- 38:01Speaker 5: I don't I'm not in score predictions. I like the
- 38:03Speaker 5: Nate Newton philosophy. Just gotta win by.
- 38:05Speaker 2: One, all right? Thank you?
- 38:08Speaker 3: You know, uh, man, I haven't watched a lot of
- 38:14Speaker 3: these games that that the Lions have played, and even
- 38:18Speaker 3: the ones for Dan Campbell was the the play caller.
- 38:23Speaker 3: But I know I know this about his style and
- 38:26Speaker 3: and he's aggressive. I mean that that's that's what he does.
- 38:28Speaker 3: I mean, he's going to go for it on fourth downs.
- 38:31Speaker 3: He believes in his team and that.
- 38:33Speaker 2: Can hurt him.
- 38:34Speaker 3: I I thought he he hurt his team two years
- 38:38Speaker 3: ago when they played the Niners. They had a big
- 38:41Speaker 3: first half lead. I thought he hurt his team by
- 38:44Speaker 3: not kicking field goals when when he had a chance.
- 38:48Speaker 3: And maybe he didn't love the kicking situation that you
- 38:52Speaker 3: had there, but they were they were in position to
- 38:55Speaker 3: kick field goals.
- 38:56Speaker 2: He didn't do that.
- 38:57Speaker 3: I wanted to kind of go for the knockout pin.
- 39:00Speaker 3: And you know, I think when you're in a league
- 39:03Speaker 3: like that, you've got to you know, you're up on
- 39:06Speaker 3: the score, and then you also have to clock to
- 39:08Speaker 3: your advantage, and so you need to play that way.
- 39:11Speaker 3: But still he's won games being aggressive and doing that
- 39:16Speaker 3: same thing. So that that's one thing that I would
- 39:18Speaker 3: say that you know for sure you're going to see
- 39:21Speaker 3: you're going to see deep, deep passes and plays like that.
- 39:24Speaker 3: You're going to see fourth down plays, and the Cowboys
- 39:28Speaker 3: have to kind of be ready for everything. But if
- 39:30Speaker 3: they can get them in some third and long situations,
- 39:33Speaker 3: then I think it does favor them. But you got
- 39:35Speaker 3: to get there first down, second down. You know, when
- 39:38Speaker 3: Gibbs is running Montgomery's running, they kind of go back
- 39:40Speaker 3: and forth. You've got to be able to stand there,
- 39:43Speaker 3: all right, Jeremy and d C And no, no, I
- 39:46Speaker 3: haven't heard anybody. So no, have you have you heard anyone?
- 39:52Speaker 7: No?
- 39:52Speaker 6: Not today, Man, that's the day. What about staying out
- 39:55Speaker 6: of trouble. You're staying out of trouble. I know that's
- 40:01Speaker 6: the odd part. Man. Yeah. Man, I just wanted to
- 40:06Speaker 6: call in man and say, Man, I'm loving how Iba
- 40:09Speaker 6: Flu got this defense looking now. You know, I did
- 40:13Speaker 6: call on purpose yesterday because you know, the last couple
- 40:17Speaker 6: of the last couple of weeks, everybody's been calling for
- 40:20Speaker 6: that man's job, calling for Eba Flu's job. But Nick,
- 40:24Speaker 6: you was the one that said, everybody be patient, you
- 40:27Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. And we've been patient, and now
- 40:31Speaker 6: he's showing that all he needed was the pieces to
- 40:33Speaker 6: the puzzle right to put it together, you know what
- 40:36Speaker 6: I'm saying. Yeah, So he had me acting to clowny
- 40:40Speaker 6: on Thanksgiving, you know what I'm talking about.
- 40:44Speaker 2: That's good. That's good.
- 40:47Speaker 6: How did that Ferguson catch mac count? Nick, That's my
- 40:50Speaker 6: question for today. How did that Ferguson catch mac count?
- 40:53Speaker 6: He got one foot in twice?
- 40:56Speaker 3: I know, I mean, you know Matten John Madden wrote
- 41:00Speaker 3: the books and said one one knee or one knee
- 41:03Speaker 3: equals two feet. I mean I would think, you know,
- 41:07Speaker 3: two feet should count, you know, I mean, it doesn't
- 41:11Speaker 3: matter if it's if it's the same foot, you know,
- 41:14Speaker 3: some man.
- 41:15Speaker 6: And then did you see the play? There was one
- 41:17Speaker 6: play where Patch Mahomes was was he was trying to
- 41:22Speaker 6: he was moving out the pocket. I believe that was
- 41:24Speaker 6: uh Donovan as a rock who had him for a sack,
- 41:27Speaker 6: but the offensive lineman put him in a figure.
- 41:29Speaker 7: Four leg.
- 41:31Speaker 3: I did not I did not see any Rick Flair
- 41:35Speaker 3: stuff happening there like that.
- 41:36Speaker 2: Man, maybe I need to go back and look at him.
- 41:40Speaker 6: Yeah, it was like right, it was like at the
- 41:42Speaker 6: I think it was at the end of the game
- 41:44Speaker 6: or right before halftime. It was like Mahomes almost got
- 41:47Speaker 6: sat and then he stepped into the pocket and moved
- 41:50Speaker 6: over to the left. And my cousin he was looking
- 41:52Speaker 6: at me. He was like, oh, how Patch you went home?
- 41:54Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 41:54Speaker 7: See that's why they.
- 41:55Speaker 6: Called him Patch Mahomes because he do stuff like that.
- 41:58Speaker 5: And they shoved the replay.
- 42:00Speaker 6: I'll get out of there too. If you got my
- 42:02Speaker 6: man and a figure for a leg lock, you know.
- 42:07Speaker 2: I need to go look at that.
- 42:08Speaker 6: That was it, Nick Man. I hope you guys enjoy
- 42:11Speaker 6: your holiday. Merry Christmas too. If I don't talk to
- 42:14Speaker 6: you guys for Christmas, but I should be talking to
- 42:16Speaker 6: you guys, all right, but I holler at you Friday, Nick.
- 42:20Speaker 3: All right, sounds good, good stuff from Jeremy. All right,
- 42:24Speaker 3: I didn't see that. I didn't see that play. Uh
- 42:27Speaker 3: James in New Jersey's next.
- 42:30Speaker 9: Hang you on, Nick? Good?
- 42:31Speaker 2: How are you?
- 42:32Speaker 9: I'm good? Three? Seen you go? Quick time? Want to you.
- 42:34Speaker 9: I'll hang up with response. First thing, the Cowboys have
- 42:38Speaker 9: to prepare better for noise, the hand signals and things.
- 42:41Speaker 9: I need to have to do better job of communicating
- 42:44Speaker 9: with noisy crowds on the road. I think that's an
- 42:47Speaker 9: issue with the front liners, especially the opposite line, the
- 42:50Speaker 9: penalties and things of that nature. The second thing, they
- 42:54Speaker 9: should be aware of the Lions using Gibs as a
- 42:58Speaker 9: receiver even in the slot, because I think they're going
- 43:01Speaker 9: to do that try to compensated from losing their chop receiver.
- 43:04Speaker 9: And the third thing is that they may want to
- 43:08Speaker 9: considered using is A Rakta as a middle linebacker on
- 43:11Speaker 9: third long and second in law. That way they can
- 43:14Speaker 9: produced in and climbing on the shield at the same
- 43:16Speaker 9: time as him, and he's quick enough that he can go.
- 43:19Speaker 9: I think he can do a better job if he
- 43:21Speaker 9: needs to even go back and past defense, but at
- 43:24Speaker 9: least put him over the center's head and punt of
- 43:26Speaker 9: the center and like, you know, and be a fit
- 43:28Speaker 9: to come out at the middle to the quarterback.
- 43:31Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 43:32Speaker 3: I don't I don't know if I hate that. I
- 43:34Speaker 3: like I like having thanks for the call and that
- 43:37Speaker 3: and that You've got a lot of good stuff there.
- 43:40Speaker 3: You know, it's got to be something that he's practiced. Uh,
- 43:44Speaker 3: But I do like lighting up some really good pass
- 43:47Speaker 3: rushers in different spots. I mean, you know, we've seen
- 43:50Speaker 3: it with some of the best ones. Obviously Micah could
- 43:53Speaker 3: do that. I'm not saying he's in that category yet,
- 43:55Speaker 3: but but lighting him up in different places to kind
- 43:58Speaker 3: of find the mismatches is something that that definitely could
- 44:01Speaker 3: could be the case. Also, you know Overshown is in
- 44:04Speaker 3: that group too. I want to see Overshown kind of
- 44:07Speaker 3: going in you know, different pass rushing spots. So having
- 44:10Speaker 3: Clowney Houston, if these three tackles though, in whatever combination
- 44:15Speaker 3: that they're playing, if they can provide that push, then
- 44:18Speaker 3: it's certainly gonna be good for this team. All right,
- 44:21Speaker 3: we can talk about that a little bit more. I'm
- 44:22Speaker 3: gonna go to break one more time. Be right back
- 44:24Speaker 3: after this. All right, Cowboys fans, this one's for you.

- 45:41Speaker 3: All right, welcome back to Cowboys storyline here. Just got
- 45:45Speaker 3: a couple minutes here before we wrap this thing up,
- 45:47Speaker 3: and still talking about you know, what a great win
- 45:50Speaker 3: it was looking back to the Chiefs game. But there's
- 45:54Speaker 3: no time for any of that at this point. I
- 45:56Speaker 3: mean that now the Cowboys got to keep moving. They
- 45:59Speaker 3: get the Lions this week. We've been talking all about it,
- 46:01Speaker 3: all about the matchup, had a lot of questions about,
- 46:04Speaker 3: you know, how are they going to stop Jamior Gibbs
- 46:06Speaker 3: had something about him not just as a runner but
- 46:08Speaker 3: a receiver. But you know, from a from a duo standpoint, man,
- 46:14Speaker 3: this is good. This is interesting because I think you've
- 46:16Speaker 3: got the best two runners on one team with the Lions.
- 46:21Speaker 3: You've got the best two receivers right now on one
- 46:24Speaker 3: team at least, you know, from a stats standpoint, nobody's
- 46:28Speaker 3: got over I think seven forty that's what CD has.
- 46:33Speaker 3: And then of course Pickts is already one thousand. So
- 46:35Speaker 3: you know, you've got the best receiving duo going up
- 46:38Speaker 3: against the best running back duo in the league, and
- 46:42Speaker 3: both offensive lines have been banged up a little bit,
- 46:45Speaker 3: but you know, it's a it's a game of skilled players,
- 46:49Speaker 3: this one coming up. And both quarterbacks, you know, kind
- 46:53Speaker 3: of the same. You know, they're both veteran guys. And
- 46:56Speaker 3: and and Golf's done it. He's been to a super Bowl,
- 46:59Speaker 3: and you know he's he's very accurate when when he's protected,
- 47:02Speaker 3: and that's you know, the same. You can say the
