  Speaker 1: get some of those I want to hear from from
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: you guys. Uh like always we're gonna we're gonna talk
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: a little bit about storylines. I'm gonna try to move
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: through that quicker it starts. Usually the storylines aren't always
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: the best. I mean, that's probably why that their their
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: stories here, especially in the middle of the week. But
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: we find out today that that Cowboys defensive end Sam
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: Williams has been arrested on some drug and weapon charges.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: Getting more details. Cowboys are not making official statement on that, uh,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: but they are gathering information. They're gonna work directly with Sam.
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: We'll we'll find out a little bit more about that
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: as as the legal process continues to go through here.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: So he practiced uh yesterday, We'll see if he practices tonight.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: He probably will. Nothing's been determined yet on his status,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: uh as far as if if he's even going to
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: be suspended by the league or anything like that. Sometimes
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: that thing takes a long time. So we'll see exactly
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: how how it plays out with Sam Williams. Unfortunate this
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: is the second time now he's had an off the
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: field incident. Remember he had he was involved in a
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: car wreck last December that he ended up missing a
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: game and and it turns out he was he was
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: speeding and uh totaled his car and had a little
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: bit of an injury there, but nobody was seriously hurt,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: which was good. But you know, that's that was another
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: situation for for Sam Williams, who came to the Cowboys
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: with with with a few off the field incidents as well.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: But talented player. Cowboys are continued to work with him
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: and his talent shows showed last year. Uh in the
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: game he got limited snaps last year, he still led
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: the team in tackles for losses. He was up there
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: with four sacks. He was very productive despite limited role
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: and I think that you know, everyone was really excited
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: about what they see from him this year. Another bump
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: in the road. Let's see how how bad it is
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: for him. But you know, just something that we have
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: to monitor are there with Sam Williams. I do have
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: some questions about that about him. We'll get to that
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: here in a little bit more storylines. Cowboys have an
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: open practice tonight again at Frisco here at the start
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: if you have a chance, or at at Fort Center,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: if you have a chance to to get close and
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: drive by. And it depends on where you live. I
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: know a lot of people live, you know, all over
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: the place. A lot of our our callers and listeners
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: are from all over the country and the world, but
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: we do have some here in in Dallas as well.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: If you have a chance to think by this will
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: really be the last time you'll be able to watch
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: a full practice until next year, next next training camp.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: So and it's indoors. Don't forget that part, indoor indoor practice,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: and and it'll be it'll be fun to see what
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: goes on there is The Cowboys continue to to kind
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: of get ready to cut down this roster, which will
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: be next week. So there'll be some other news on
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: the site. Stay tuned for that. We have some do
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: have some exciting news to announce later on. It'll be
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: announced here later today regarding former players with the team,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: so stay tuned for that. But as for us for
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: this team and and just the roster reduction that will
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: happen down to fifty three as an ongoing process, I
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: would guess right now you're probably at about forty five
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: forty seven guys and then with you know, with with
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: a handful or so that can still change in the
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: last preseason game. And then also depending on who else
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: gets cut around the league too, So you're not just
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: going against the teams here, the guys here in this
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: ninety You're going up against everybody that that might get cut.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: It's like eleven hundred players that are gonna get cut
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: all at once next week. So that's a lot of
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: players to to kind of sift through and see how
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: they relate to what you have on your roster as well.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: All right, let's go to the phone lines. Let's go
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: right to it here. Let's who we got on the line.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: All right, Andre from DC, Let's what do you got?
• 5:00
  Speaker 5: Hey, what's going on next? Thanks for taking my call.
• 5:04
  Speaker 5: Congratulations on the new show, Looking for to the smartest
• 5:08
  Speaker 5: half hour on the podcast. Uh run Hey. So, so
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: my my question or comment is, you know a lot
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: of times we go through draft season and we have
• 5:19
  Speaker 5: to wait, you know, years to see about draft disappointments
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: and everything. But the thing that stuck out to me,
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: and it's tied to the Marveian overshown injury, is that
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: he was the one thing that was keeping me satiated
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: with the with the selection of Schoonmaker and uh in
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: the second round, because I was really I thought we
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: would go with old Cyrus Torrance, you know, to take
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: the old line help and then would have still been
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: able to get uh, the wide receiver that Pittsburgh took
• 5:54
  Speaker 5: Washington down there, Washington, and I thought that would have
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: been a great way to feel those two needs. But
• 6:00
  Speaker 5: what was keeping me off of worrying about it was
• 6:03
  Speaker 5: what we were getting from Overshown and which from being
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: out for the rest of the season. Now that just
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: reminds me of how I felt about the draft.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: What do you think about getting a playmaking running back
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: in the sixth round? I mean, like, does that factor
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: in at all too? I mean, I get what you're saying,
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: but you know, you're like, wow, I like this, but
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: I was offset by that. But you know, you kind
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: of stole one in the sixth round. I mean, I
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: know it's it's we'll see how it plays out. But
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: I mean, if we're already going to judge what you
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: think of Overshown and Scooonmaker, I think you can judge
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: what you think of Deuce Van, So it feels like
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: it's still there. Jalen Brook seems like a pretty good
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: pick of set seventh round. All I'm saying is is
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: that if we're already going to evaluate. It's not like
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: there was a complete miss. And so you know, some
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: some look better than others. I think what I'm trying
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: to say at this.
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: Point, oh definitely. And you know, they get paid to
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: make the decision when they've been doing a great job
• 6:57
  Speaker 5: over the past few years. It's just a matter of
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: you know, just that like you know, wow, okay o
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: line help and a tight end that can come in
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: and block and you know, be a threat in the
• 7:08
  Speaker 5: red zone all of that stuff. But you know, like
• 7:10
  Speaker 5: I said, they don't need my help.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: Well, no, I thanks for the call. I really appreciate
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: the call. And right, and and they do you know what,
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: everyone needs help, I mean. But but they do a
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: good job of drafting. And I do think that's something
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: that you we have to remember is that they get
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: the benefit of the doubt. They they should. They've drafted
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: well enough. It's early schoonmaker. I get it is not
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: a sexy pick, but he's going to be a guy
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: that I think is going to have a really good role,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: solid role, is going to play a lot of snaps,
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: not the wild factor you had with overshown. But I
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: still think it's a solid pick. And as you went
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: through the draft. They got some players that are that
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: are going to help this team probably right away and
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: induce Vaughan and and some others, maybe Brooks. Maybe we'll
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: see what Eric Scott does. But I think so far
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: it's looking like a pretty good draft, and I don't
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: don't rule out Schoonmaker for being a good player. Looks
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: like we have another call Nick and Omaha, what's up?
• 8:05
  Speaker 6: Hey, thanks for having me love the show so far.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: Thanks.
• 8:09
  Speaker 7: Something that is wanted to.
• 8:11
  Speaker 6: Talk about was or have you talked about? I should say,
• 8:14
  Speaker 6: is I know he's one of the most talked about
• 8:16
  Speaker 6: players in sports, but do you think people are overlooking
• 8:19
  Speaker 6: Dak a little bit? I mean last year his wide
• 8:23
  Speaker 6: receiver two was Noah Brown for a while and then
• 8:26
  Speaker 6: t Y Hilton off the street Like yeah, Gallup was there,
• 8:29
  Speaker 6: but he couldn't get over the mental barrier. And now
• 8:31
  Speaker 6: he is a solid veteran like Cooks and gallops back
• 8:34
  Speaker 6: to that number three role. I was hoping you can
• 8:36
  Speaker 6: maybe touch on that a little bit.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Thanks, thanks for the call. You know, I
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: chuckle a little bit with the starting quarterback for the
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboy was getting overlooked because I haven't I right
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: outside my office, I have two TVs and one of
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: them is always has ESPN, and I always see Steven A.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Smith and all those guys. And it's just Dak never
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: seems to be over look to be, you know. And
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: and that's fine. You know that that that stick that
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: that they play, you know, that's the WWE of sports broadcasting.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: As far as I'm concerned. They love to talk about Dak.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: Everyone loves to do that. So overlooked seems kind of weird.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: But I know what you're saying is underappreciated maybe or
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: are not always given the benefit of the doubt, which
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: I do think happens around here, you know, because I
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: think the starting quarterback here gets scrutinized a lot. Tony
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: Romo was always considered an overrated quarterback, and I think
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: he may be one of the more underrated quarterbacks, uh
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: for that for that reason. So about Dak, the interceptions
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: are there, I mean, the interceptions are the interceptions they
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: were there? Were they all his fault?
• 9:40
  Speaker 7: No?
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: Absolutely not. A lot of them were knocked up in
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: the air, Some of them were were bad throws, and
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: you know, just miscommunication. I think him being out a
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: little bit hurt the hurt. The communication with the receivers there,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: whatever it was, they they they struggled at times. People
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: remember the forty nine loss. A couple interceptions there. They
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: the week before in Tampa Bay was one of the
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: greatest games any quarterback in the NFL has ever had,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: one of the greatest stat lines you you you can
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: have in a game, especially in the postseason. It was
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: forgotten quickly because of what happened in San Francisco. I
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: get what you're saying. Underrated, underappreciated, yes, of course. But
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: you know some of that is on him. Some of
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: that he has to get, he has to get better at,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: and I think he will. He said the right things,
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: he's done the right things. They've added the help, like
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: you said with Cooks. I think it's going to be
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: a better year for him. All right. Sticking to the
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: phone lines, we're breezing through it. Got another call Joe
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: and Stanford's my guy in Stanford.
• 10:43
  Speaker 7: What's up, hey, brother? How's it going?
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: Good man?
• 10:47
  Speaker 7: How are you shut out a little pissed about this?
• 10:50
  Speaker 7: Sam Williams still not gonna lie. So my question is
• 10:54
  Speaker 7: a couple things. First, do you think it matters if
• 10:57
  Speaker 7: this substance is THC or some something besides that as
• 11:01
  Speaker 7: far as what a suspension would be, and also is
• 11:05
  Speaker 7: that gonna dictate how we sort of look at our
• 11:09
  Speaker 7: cuts and who we might have looked to possibly trade
• 11:13
  Speaker 7: before these cut deadlines?
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: All right, thanks for the call. I appreciate that. Keep
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: it down there in Stanford, which is over by Abilene
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: by the way, if you if you didn't know that,
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: which I can tell you this, it's hot. It's hot
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: everywhere in Texas right now. I believe it's hot in
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: the studio, and you know it's just the way the
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: way it is. I'll answer the roster part of it
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: better than than all of the THC whatever. You know what,
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: I'll admit this, I don't know anything about that stuff.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: I proudly will say that. So if that I'm not
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: your guy when it comes to what's involved with any
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: of that kind of stuff. I don't know anything about it.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Do I think it affects the suspension?
• 11:57
  Speaker 8: Sure?
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: I mean the the worst the crime, the worst the
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: suspension or the worst the penalty. It's always the case.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: So whatever it is, you know, if if it's not
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: if it's not much, if it's misdemeanor, then it won't
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: be obviously as bad. I mean, that's just simple, that's
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: not breaking any news there. The good question, though, a
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: real good question, is is what happens with the with
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: you know, are they gonna cut more players? Are they
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: going to keep guys? I mean the first name that
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: comes out as like an Isaiah Land, I mean what
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: he's sort of on the bubble there is he a
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: player that you can get to the practice squad. He's
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: flashed a couple of times here. Nothing nothing too great,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: too promising. That might be by design, but you know,
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: maybe maybe they they keep him. But I don't I
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: don't suspect anything happening with Sam Williams soon. Nothing ever
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: happens soon really around here, uh, around the NFL when
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: it comes to these type of things. So I I
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: I'll be surprised if it's a quick thing. So I
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: don't know if it'll affect their roster that much. If
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: this is already a deep spot now, I mean, Sam
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: Williams is like your fourth best pass rusher, maybe fifth,
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: depending what Dante Fowler. So who knows. I mean, it
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: could be a situation where some of these guys might
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: even be inactive, but I don't. I think Sam Williams
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: is going to be a guy that plays a lot.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: But I do think that you're already deep there, so
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: I don't know if it's going to affect too much
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: of the roster decisions. All right, if I answered one
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: in Stanford, I got to answer something in Texarkana. This
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: is Camille from Texarkana. I do know a Camille from
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Texarkana might be my mom. It actually is. So the
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: question is first, first off, congrats on a great show.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: That does sound like a mom. Curious question as to
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: why our rookies played against Seattle against their starters. Was
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: this a coaching decision? Did that more participate the injuries?
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: Dallas sustained. I don't know about that part of the injuries,
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: but I do think this is all the decision the
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: Cowboys make. They don't want to play the starters, especially
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: in Seattle. Sorry, if you've been Romo got hurt there,
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: good things don't happen. There are preseason games in Seattle
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: sometimes playoff games too. But so going back to that,
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: I do think the the the decision was we're not
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: playing our guys.
• 14:12
  Speaker 7: Now.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: You hope that they play theirs because that gives you
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: more evaluation. It gives you a better evaluation for your
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: backups knowing that they're going up against the starter. So
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: I talked to I asked that question to Steven Jones
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: before the game, and he was like, yeah, we love that.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: We love when our backups get a chance to go
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: play against them. Just gives them a better chance to evaluate.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: And I don't know if it didn't affect anything from
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: a from an injury standpoint. It was just, you know,
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: you're not really supposed to talk to coaches before the
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: game on plan on what they're gonna do. You just say,
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: this is what we're gonna do. We'll see what they're
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: gonna do, and you know, sometimes it lines up, sometimes
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: it doesn't, because there's a flip side to that is
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: maybe it's not a good evaluation. Maybe you'd rather see
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: your your backups go up against backups so you could
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: really see how they're doing. But overall, I think they
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: were happy with with with what they have, and you know,
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: it's one of those things where it's hard to get
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: too disappointed because you know, you know, if they do well, great,
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: If not, they're going up against starters. That's kind of
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: the way that they look at it. All right, I'm
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: gonna take a break here on Cowboys storyline. We're gonna

  Speaker 1: Back for Cowboys storyline.
• 17:28
  Speaker 7: Here.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: I'm Nick Eatman, and we've got about ten twelve more
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: minutes to go. It's the fast thirty minutes in the
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: world right now, is that this show? And so there
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: will be some days that we go a little bit longer,
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: especially on Monday after a game, when you guys want
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: to get excited or vent or both, you know about
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: certain things. Let's get to I have a couple of
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: tweets here. I know the tweets were like the backbone
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: of the show when we were out out in ox start,
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: other than the guests of course, and now that we
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: got the calls in the lines and things like that.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: But I still don't want to go away from the tweets.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: Here's one from Reggie Reid. He said, are you going
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: to do a show next week with you picking who
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: you believe will make the roster week one. I hadn't
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: really thought about doing that, but but why not. I
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: know other shows kind of have done that. Maybe maybe
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: so Monday of next week, I can, you know, it'd
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: be the be the first one after the game we
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: can talk about the game. But yeah, if there's time
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: it permits there, we can we can get into that.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: And maybe maybe the next show Wednesday. But but one
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: of those two, Yeah, I don't mind doing that. It'd
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: be kind of fun. Uh, always always good to kind
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: of see, you know. Like I said, I think we're
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: talking about about five or six spots, and it's hard
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: to do because I think if if these guys don't
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: make it, it's gonna because they bring in another position,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: so that another player from another team. That's why it
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: gets kind of tricky to do that.
• 18:52
  Speaker 7: Uh.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: Here's one from Daniel Barnett. In your time with the Cowboys,
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: which player has been the most disappointing based on their potential,
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: slash talent level and poor decisions that kept them off
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: the field. Big lists to narrow down. I see, I
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: feel like this is a Sam Williams type of question.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: He's not on that list. I mean, this is this
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: is early for him. Most talented player disappointed. I mean, yeah,
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: there's we got a few there. The one that always
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: pops out to me, and it might it might be
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: a surprise to some, and I'm sure I'm missing a
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: few here, but I think Dave David Irving had a
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: chance to be really really good, like like like he was.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: One guy told me on time, one coach told me
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: that they were about to, you know, back up the
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: Brins truck. He was about to get that much money
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: he was. He was so close for him, He had
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: so much talent and he just had to develop and
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: you know, it just didn't work. David Irving is the
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: first guy that I think of. I know I'm missing some.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: There's others, there's other draft picks, but that's just the
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: one that that pops up to me just from a
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: talent standpoint that you're like, man, really would have liked
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: to see more out of him. And but but if again,
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: if this is a Sam Williams type question, we're not there.
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: I'm not there for that with with Sam Williams. This
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: this is a he is a good he's a kid
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: he's a good kid. He's a good kid. He's made
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: some mistakes, he's he's You don't like to give excuses
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: for anyone about you know where they've come from and
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: all that, but sometimes you know that he has to mature.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: And the Cowboys knew that going in and and they're
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: surrounding him with people to try to help him do that.
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: I hope, I hope they will. He's a fun person
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: to talk to, and I think he's gonna be great,
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: I really do. I think it's gonna it's gonna get
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: work out for him. I really believe. But he's got
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: to make sure and limit these situations. All Right's go
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: back to the phone line here we have Frank in irving.
• 20:51
  Speaker 9: What's up, Frank, But Nick, really enjoy your show.
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: Thank you.
• 21:00
  Speaker 9: If everybody is saying that Deuce Vaughn is gonna make
• 21:04
  Speaker 9: a make the fifty three man team, why is he
• 21:10
  Speaker 9: only playing in the second half of games?
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: Yep, good question, good question. I think the real we
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: appreciate the call, thank you, But there's two games here.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: The first game this is that was the plan. That
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: was obviously the plan to play him there. And I
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: don't think anyone everyone was saying, he's making the team. There,
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: he did that, some did some nice things, and it's like, okay,
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: well let's see more of him personally. I thought they
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: would show him a little bit more in the first
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: half of that game. But he's making the team. Okay.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: That was always I think in their mind, like there
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: it was going to happen. I don't know what his
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: role was going to be, but I don't think you
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: could say that for Dabble. I don't think you could
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: say that from Lake Davis, and so I think it
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: was more important to kind of get them some work there,
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: because if something were to happen to Pollard, it's going
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: to be Dattle or gonna be Malie Davis. That gets
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: a lot of those carries. So I think that they
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: still wanted to evaluate him. Good question. You know, you can't.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: You can't use everyone. I thought he might get a
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: little bit earlier snaps, but it didn't happen. So anyways,
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: all right, let's go back to the phone line. Jake
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: in South Lake.
• 22:27
  Speaker 10: Hey, Nick, how you doing, man?
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: Man, I'm good. How the Dragon's going to do this year?
• 22:32
  Speaker 7: Oh? We'll see south Lake.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: Carol is who I'm referring to who seemed like they've
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: won one hundred state championships since I've been around.
• 22:41
  Speaker 10: But anyways, oh, yeah, what do you got?
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, when you're like, I don't know, I mean
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: we may just go stay, but not with it all.
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: I mean the bar is very high over there. So anyways,
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: what's going on?
• 22:54
  Speaker 10: Hey, I know injuries are a part of the game, obviously,
• 22:57
  Speaker 10: we all know that. I'm thinking about the swing tap position.
• 23:00
  Speaker 10: If well, let's go, it's seriously banged up. I mean,
• 23:04
  Speaker 10: where do you see us going?
• 23:07
  Speaker 5: That?
• 23:07
  Speaker 8: Is it?
• 23:07
  Speaker 7: Awesome?
• 23:08
  Speaker 10: Richards, I'll hang up and listen. I just want to
• 23:10
  Speaker 10: see what your thoughts are on the swing tackle position.
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: I think thanks for the call. I really appreciate it,
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: and I think it's probably the most pressing question right
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: now other than kicker. But kicker, it is what it is.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's going to be Aubrey unless they just
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: don't feel good about it and then they'll go get
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: someone else. But tackles just aren't sitting out there. The
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: kickers are, the tackles are not, and so it's it's
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: a concern. I don't I think that they're going to
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: have to to maybe get trade for a veteran, or
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: get a veteran that's on the street, and there's not
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: many on the street unless there's a guy that's, you know,
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: like a Jason Peters type or whatever. Which if you're
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: going to do that specifically Jason Peters, I think you
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: should have already done it because you learned your lesson
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: last year. He needs time to get to ramp it
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: up for the season. So I if you're gonna do that,
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: do it, do it now. I wouldn't be opposed to that,
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: but I think that there's other options. But I'm I
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: think that is probably gonna have to come from the outside.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: I just I don't know if you can trust well,
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: let's go right now with the injuries situation, and he
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: hasn't played that great when he was out there, so
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: six through nine, six to ten on the offensive line
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: of a lot of question marks, and I just don't
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: know if Awesome Richards is ready to be the guy
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: to be the swing tackle for both knowing that Tyron
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: Smith is the left tackle. I mean, it's almost like
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: you got to have another guy that you really really
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: feel comfortable with, and that that person's not there. So
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: that's what's kind of tough. Right now, I think for
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: for the situation, just because you really don't have another
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: guy that you can lean to. All right, let's go
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: to the text line. We have Carrie will win from
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: the note, all right, will Mica be more prone to
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: off size penalties this season with his ramped up aggression
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: and he's trying to get more sacks? What's the over
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: under on that. I'll take twenty. I'll take twenty. I'll
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: take twenty off sides. I would do that if you did,
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: if you offset an off size penalty with a sack.
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: So if I can get twenty sacks, I'll take twenty penalties.
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: That's I mean, I know that sounds ridiculous. But DeMarcus
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: ware who just went into the Hall of Fame. I'm
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: not saying he got won a game. He got a lot,
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: he got a lot flows out Adams, a lot of
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: false start penalties, a lot. But he was also he
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: needed that quick step to do what he did and
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: to be great. So yeah, it's gonna happen. Maybe twenties
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: is high, but I will take one a game if
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: I'm getting a sack a game, because five yard penalty
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: is now first and five whatever, I still have him
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: rushing in the pass or again, I still have them
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: were worrying about we've got to go hard count, We've
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: got to do this, we gotta do this. That's them
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: trying to that's them worrying about Micah Parsons. So I
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: don't you'd hate it on thirty three when you're trying
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: to get off the field, you get a first out,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: you'd hate that. I understand. It's it's I'm not saying
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: that it be undisciplined, but I'm saying the aggression that
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: it takes to be over zealous and to get a
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: penalty is the same reason why he's scaring offensive coordinators
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: and quarterbacks and left tackles to death because of the
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: way that he rushes the passer. So I will take
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: that trade if he's getting the sacks that I think
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: he's going to get. All right, let's get some more
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: uh more questions here? Man? Sorry, this one was from
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: this one was I don't think it was actually for
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: this show. This was for a different show. It said
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: he doesn't love love the studio. So he's also from Philly,
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: so chucker.
• 26:56
  Speaker 5: Uh.
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: Anyways, all right, I think maybe I got one our
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: question and then we have no more phone calls right now,
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: all right, one more, one more question here, it's more
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: about about Sam Williams and and do you possibly see
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: a suspension with Sam Williams And what what the Cowboys
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: are going to lose with him if he's not on
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: the field again, if you just joined us too late,
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: because we're ALM's done. But we did talk about Sam
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: Williams a little bit. And hey, he was arrested on
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: on Sunday for drugs and weapons charges. Uh, don't know
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: a lot of more details than that. They're still kind
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: of the Cowboys are monitoring through that. Uh, it'll it
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: might take a little bit for anything to come out
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: of this. If there is going to be a suspension,
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: it probably won't be soon. But what will they lose?
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: I mean that they lose another pass rusher that that
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: that knows how to get in the backfield. I mean
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: he led the team and tackles for loss last year
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: he played a third of the snaps Micah Parson's played,
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: so he can get sometimes it's it's track, you know,
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: it's that garbage time late in the game, doesn't matter.
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: He was made can plays there at the end. And
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: and he's a he's another guy that kind of gives
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: him that that feisty edge. He's got to he's got
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: to work on the penalties, There's no doubt about it.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: He's got to get better there. Uh, he's got to
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: you know, play within control, which is obviously an issue
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: for him right now. But but I think that he will.
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: And you know, but I do think it's a deep
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: position that you know, with with Falor Door's armstrong tank
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: and then of course you got Micah.
• 28:27
  Speaker 7: Uh.
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: We'll see if Isaiah Land kind of works his way
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: in there. Tyrus Wheat, you know, is a guy that's
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: been used at different positions too as a rookie. So
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: they they've they've got options, and they've got Dan Quinn
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: who knows how to be really creative and kind of
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: you know, get it all figured out. So that's it, man,
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: that'll be it for for today's show. Again, it kind
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: of flew by. We appreciate the calls, appreciate that all
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: the texts and the tweets and and obviously I didn't
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: think him last show. I got to make sure do
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: that Chris Beam, who really does does everything here and
• 28:59
