  Speaker 7: You know.
• 1:40
  Speaker 5: I come on, man, you know what I do. You
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: know I was talking to beans. I had called my boys, right,
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: you know, okanging, I hadn't talked to him for so long, man,
• 1:49
  Speaker 5: And the energy was the same.
• 1:51
  Speaker 8: Bro.
• 1:51
  Speaker 5: We started with a James Brown thing on how you
• 1:54
  Speaker 5: feel and I'm when I feel good, and they just
• 1:56
  Speaker 5: chimed in the same. You know. That's that's what my
• 2:00
  Speaker 5: calls are about. One. I remember you telling the caller
• 2:02
  Speaker 5: one time. Everybody has their own things, they have their
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: own style. I'm just a positive guy, you know what
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: I'm saying. And I want to shout out two guys
• 2:10
  Speaker 5: that I hear and this is no shot at nobody
• 2:13
  Speaker 5: else is. I've shouted out so many people, but Jeremy
• 2:16
  Speaker 5: and Washington and Robbie and Cocoa Beach. You guys give
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: me more inspiration because you have some positive calls, man,
• 2:22
  Speaker 5: some fun calls. And that's what I'm about. If you
• 2:25
  Speaker 5: want to call and show other people in two or
• 2:27
  Speaker 5: three four times a week and always say what the
• 2:29
  Speaker 5: Cowboys can't do, how bad we are, that's on you.
• 2:32
  Speaker 5: I'm just gonna bring that positive energy and tell Nick
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: every week what we can do. I predict the twenty
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: and six twenty, but I was close, but I was
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: on the wrong side. I told you, if we get Kirk,
• 2:43
  Speaker 5: whether I say get Kirt, frustrate him, don't let him extend.
• 2:47
  Speaker 5: And we really didn't. You know, he just beat us
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: kind of in the pocket regularly. But we put up
• 2:52
  Speaker 5: a fight. And I told you what Dak needed to do,
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: and he was doing it until he pulled his hams
• 2:55
  Speaker 5: drink a little bit. He didn't get the points that
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: I wanted him to. But the same rules apply. That's
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: not there. Same rules apply on Sunday. You can beat
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: Philly even with a backup quarterback. You can beat Philly
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: even with that defense. Call offs and showed you when
• 3:09
  Speaker 5: people say we don't have nothing, we're not gonna put
• 3:11
  Speaker 5: no pressure. He showed you we can put it. You
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: know what I'm saying, So do the things you need
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: to do. Be fundamental. We have to be fundamental when
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: we're killing ourselves, you know. And it takes a little luck, man,
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: and a little bit more effort, and you can beat them.
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: And I'm going with the same exact score twenty six,
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: twenty twenty six, twenty cowboys, Now, nigga, I want to
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: it's two of your callers that I haven't heard from.
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: The North Carolina people, and remember every all of us
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: was hit with Verri Kan's Florida and North Carolina Hart. Now,
• 3:41
  Speaker 5: I heard from some guys, but I haven't heard from
• 3:43
  Speaker 5: a caller. I remember her caller Jeff. And there's a
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: deep and there's a deep voiced guy named I think
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: Tim something like that. I haven't heard from those guys,
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: so I used to like to hear them. So I'm
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: just sending a shout out to them, guys. Anthony's thinking
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: about y'all, guys, man and everybody else that was effected.
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: Thank you, I appreciate that's that's great call Anthony and
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: looking out for everyone else.
• 4:08
  Speaker 9: You know.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: It's funny that you say that because I actually do
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: chart the calls and I've been working on that. I've
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: been a little bit behind, so I'm trying to catch
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: up a little bit, see, you know. And it also
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: helps me just to kind of see when when you're
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: doing the All Storyline Team at the end of the year,
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: you know who's who's called a lot, and it's not
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: all about who's called the most. But that certainly helps
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: and I'd like to see that. And then I noticed
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: that about Tim from Winston Salem, Eric from North Carolina.
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: So I hope you guys are doing good. Give us
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: a call if you can. Nice of Anthony to do
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: that and bring some positive energy of course today, which
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: I don't think Anthony can do it any other way,
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: which I love that about him. Same with his next guy, Brian,
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: Kansas City. Brian, what's up man?
• 4:50
  Speaker 10: Hey, good morning, sir. How are you good?
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: How are you I'm.
• 4:54
  Speaker 10: Doing great, man, I'm doing great. I appreciate it. I
• 4:57
  Speaker 10: appreciate the introduction. You know. I was wait on my
• 5:01
  Speaker 10: red bat phone when you announced the All Storyline Team.
• 5:04
  Speaker 10: I thought we were going to get red batphones. We
• 5:06
  Speaker 10: could call Mike and Mike and Jerry, and you know
• 5:09
  Speaker 10: we're going to really participate here.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you can call Mike and Mike. I just think
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: it's a different show.
• 5:16
  Speaker 10: Absolutely, man, absolutely, do you got Brian? Well, you know
• 5:21
  Speaker 10: this week. You know, when I was a kid, all
• 5:25
  Speaker 10: we cared about was beating the Redskins. You know, you
• 5:27
  Speaker 10: could win two games a year as long as they
• 5:29
  Speaker 10: were both against the Redskins.
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 5:31
  Speaker 10: I think that's who Philly is now. And I think
• 5:34
  Speaker 10: it's you know, the Redskins have been bad for They're
• 5:36
  Speaker 10: not this year, but they the Commanders have been bad
• 5:40
  Speaker 10: for so long.
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: Well, you know they're calling out Dallas now, I mean, yeah.
• 5:44
  Speaker 10: They suddenly caught up, didn't they.
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Well now I'm just saying that what they win
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: a game that you know, the other day in Chicago
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: they were calling out Dallas which is still a month away.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: So yeah, they're they're they're ready for it. I mean
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: that that's a rivalry too. I mean, just look at
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: how many Cowboy fans they're in Virginia, you know. I
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: mean that that that rivalry will always be there. But
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: I think I think they're all, you know, whenever that
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: team in the division is good. It's a rivalry, and
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: so it's all three of them.
• 6:12
  Speaker 10: Might I think, yeah, the yeah, the this is going
• 6:18
  Speaker 10: to be a good one too, you know, I think it.
• 6:21
  Speaker 10: The Cowboys are struggling. They're struggling with injuries and all
• 6:25
  Speaker 10: kinds of you know, the the Eagles have a great
• 6:28
  Speaker 10: defensive line right now. Our offensive line is struggling. But
• 6:32
  Speaker 10: I hope we can come up with something. And that's
• 6:35
  Speaker 10: kind of you know what. I maybe you could give
• 6:37
  Speaker 10: a viewpoint on what can we do to give our
• 6:41
  Speaker 10: offensive line a little bit of help? You know, you
• 6:44
  Speaker 10: know whatever that is. Screen passes, draws, you know, those
• 6:47
  Speaker 10: are the typical answers, and you know, maybe maybe throw
• 6:51
  Speaker 10: Trey Lance out on the field for some place, you know,
• 6:54
  Speaker 10: something like that. I'd like to see something like that
• 6:56
  Speaker 10: that we could, you know, we could do something a
• 6:58
  Speaker 10: little bit different. You know, maybe this is the week
• 7:01
  Speaker 10: to put Deuce out there, you know, for that unique
• 7:03
  Speaker 10: skill set, something like that at my old time player
• 7:07
  Speaker 10: this week, somebody, this is not the nineteen sixty question
• 7:10
  Speaker 10: all over again. This is somebody that you you were
• 7:14
  Speaker 10: there when he was there. Tight end Anthony Forsano man,
• 7:19
  Speaker 10: and I'll talk to you later.
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: All right, Anthony Forsono, uh, I have a whole lot
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: of little stuff on him. I mean, Anthony Fersono. I'll
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: say this was the first of three draft picks that
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: the Cowboys had at tight end in the second round.
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: That just I mean, they just I just fueled the
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: fire for Jason Witten. I don't know how long he
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: was going to play. I don't know if he was
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: always going to be a seventeen year guy. But keep
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: drafting him in the second round and see how that went.
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: Because Witten was like, you know, that's just the way
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: he was, and so I you know, he was just like, oh, okay,
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: all right, draft you don't use the second round pick
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: on tight end. I think I'm slowing down. Okay, I'm good
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: to know. Thanks appreciate that one hundred catches or another
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: Pro Bowl, All Pro. And then Martellus Bennett comes along.
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: Oh you say, oh he's a good blocker. Oh okay,
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: Well you don't think I can block? Well, okay, watch it.
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: I mean, and then it was Gavin Escobar, you know,
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: so it was. I don't have a lot of stories
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: about Fasado. I just know he was the first of
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: those second round tight ends that really they didn't. All
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: they did really was pushed Witting into being as great
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: as he was. That's that's my take on that. You
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: are a question about what can the Cowboys do this
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: week against the Eagles help the offensive line, to help
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: Cooper Rush. All that. I was kind of trying to
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: look really quick here on Jake Ferguson's stats. If I
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: remember correctly the first so twenty twenty two, the game
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: when when they lost to the Eagles, if I remember
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: like he had won four in a row, Cooper Rush
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: as the starter, and then Ferguson. Yeah, I kind of
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: thought it was like Ferguson's first game where he kind
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: of did something and he had a little connection with
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: with Cooper Rush. And so I'm looking at his stats.
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: You know, the first six games of the season, he
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: had three catches for twenty yards. Six games, three catches
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: for twenty yards. I can't remember there being a lot
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: of restless fans. Fourth round pick, you know, it's like,
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: what's going on with him? Then against Philly, four catches
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: forty yards and a touchdown, and I remember one of
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: them was a nice little mover at the goal line.
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: So I think that's gonna help. I think I think
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: tight ends, uh, you know, quick passes there, you know
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: they can you know he can, he can maneuver against
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: those safeties and tight ends, and then he just throws
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: a nice deep ball, and I think that that's got
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: to be back into play here. Deep ball, get some
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: catches there, maybe some pass interference. It can move down
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: the field that way to whatever works. And I think
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: I think with the week of practice here this week,
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: for for Cooper Rush, I'd like to see the that
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: little touch on those passes with Tolbert, Uh, Turpin, maybe
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: he's got to catch it though. I mean Turpin, he's
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: had a couple of opportunities. You got to catch that ball.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: Same with Tolbert too. CD all of them like to
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: see a little bit deep ball as well. All right,
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: let's go Dylan, Northport, Florida.
• 10:16
  Speaker 9: How's it going good?
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: How are you?
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: Chris?
• 10:19
  Speaker 9: Just getting ready take off in a couple hours heading
• 10:21
  Speaker 9: up to New York for my annual hunting trips. So
• 10:23
  Speaker 9: I won't be calling in next week.
• 10:24
  Speaker 6: So it wanted to just.
• 10:26
  Speaker 9: Wanted to chime in on the mingo stuff, and so
• 10:29
  Speaker 9: my thoughts on this team here.
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: What are we hunting? Dylan what are we hunting this deer?
• 10:34
  Speaker 6: White tailed deer?
• 10:35
  Speaker 9: Okay, bucks only no, no dose only only the.
• 10:38
  Speaker 6: Only the men.
• 10:39
  Speaker 9: And they're crazy right now out there. Man, they're chasing
• 10:41
  Speaker 9: the girls. It's this time of year where they go
• 10:43
  Speaker 9: crazy for the grill to hear the does. So, I
• 10:45
  Speaker 9: don't know, it should be fun. We'll see, we'll see, okay,
• 10:49
  Speaker 9: all right, Yes, sir Jonathan Mingo.
• 10:52
  Speaker 6: You know, I like the guy.
• 10:55
  Speaker 9: I think his his uh having two and a half
• 10:59
  Speaker 9: years at time is deal and then kind of paired
• 11:01
  Speaker 9: with the trade deadline. You know, players fetch their higher
• 11:05
  Speaker 9: value than the trade deadline. I think his price was
• 11:07
  Speaker 9: inflated a little bit there for the fourth. I think
• 11:09
  Speaker 9: if fifth would have went over a lot well with fans,
• 11:11
  Speaker 9: I wouldn't have made the trade personally because and I fact,
• 11:14
  Speaker 9: I've probably try to sell more guys in the trade deadline.
• 11:17
  Speaker 9: I'm trying to get more draft capital to make trades
• 11:19
  Speaker 9: and stuff next year in the draft to move up.
• 11:22
  Speaker 9: But that's fine. I think Mingo will be will be good.
• 11:24
  Speaker 9: I don't think it's very to judgement of time. In
• 11:26
  Speaker 9: carolinasin's a mess. So I know he's ranked last in
• 11:28
  Speaker 9: a lot of categories. I don't put any crevent Jolanta guys,
• 11:31
  Speaker 9: so we'll see how he turns out. But I'm getting
• 11:35
  Speaker 9: to the point in the season where I'm never going
• 11:38
  Speaker 9: to be on team tank. I can't root against the team.
• 11:40
  Speaker 9: It takes too long for the season to come around
• 11:42
  Speaker 9: to see year and hope they lose. I just can't
• 11:44
  Speaker 9: do that. I'm in it for the fun of it,
• 11:45
  Speaker 9: you know, and it's way more fun when they're winning.
• 11:48
  Speaker 9: It's more fun to see these these lower tier players
• 11:50
  Speaker 9: like a Cooper Rush play well and be a good
• 11:52
  Speaker 9: team like the Eagles. So I think I'm in the
• 11:55
  Speaker 9: sambo as a lot of people where we're rooting for
• 11:56
  Speaker 9: the team. We don't have a lot of expectations, and we'll.
• 11:59
  Speaker 6: See where it goes.
• 12:00
  Speaker 9: But you know, with that said, I'm also putting my
• 12:03
  Speaker 9: GM cap on. I want to know who I'm extending
• 12:08
  Speaker 9: next year or who can play really because we've got
• 12:10
  Speaker 9: two safeties jan Ye, Tomments the Marquis Bell, who I
• 12:13
  Speaker 9: think are better than the starters right now anyways, but
• 12:15
  Speaker 9: they're restricted free agents next year, so I want to
• 12:18
  Speaker 9: see what they can do. I'm giving them some time
• 12:19
  Speaker 9: on the field. I want to give them some resks,
• 12:22
  Speaker 9: give them some film and see how they play. I
• 12:24
  Speaker 9: think the four running back room is going to be
• 12:26
  Speaker 9: gutted next year. I think Rico is the only guy
• 12:28
  Speaker 9: that has a chance to stay it. Maybe an RG two,
• 12:30
  Speaker 9: but even he might be gone. I'm putting Duce out
• 12:33
  Speaker 9: for a game. I'm giving him ten to twelve touches.
• 12:35
  Speaker 9: I want to see if he can even be a
• 12:36
  Speaker 9: gadget player, because we don't have really any cape on
• 12:39
  Speaker 9: him yet. I know a lot of people have given nothing.
• 12:41
  Speaker 9: That's fine, it's understandable. I haven't yet. I just want
• 12:44
  Speaker 9: to see a steady dose of touches and see what
• 12:47
  Speaker 9: he can do. Floor Noy is another guy I want
• 12:48
  Speaker 9: to see. I think you have a lot of young
• 12:50
  Speaker 9: players that you have some question marks on and you
• 12:52
  Speaker 9: want to develop, and you know, the GM and ME
• 12:55
  Speaker 9: is kind of an evaluation mode right now. I want
• 12:57
  Speaker 9: to see what these guys can do. And with all
• 12:59
  Speaker 9: that said, Nick, I'm going to take the Eagles win
• 13:01
  Speaker 9: this week. I think it's going to be a close game.
• 13:02
  Speaker 9: I actually like Cooper Rush a lot because in this offense,
• 13:06
  Speaker 9: he's very processed, driven out of the rats there. It's
• 13:09
  Speaker 9: not we'll get rid of the ball. He's very accurate,
• 13:12
  Speaker 9: throws nice people. So I'm interested to see what he
• 13:14
  Speaker 9: can do with some of these receivers and route concepts
• 13:16
  Speaker 9: that we got going on. So thanks Nick Oculating, all.
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: Right, Thanks Dylan. All Right. You know, I don't know
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: if they're there just yet. Like you know, he says
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: he's not into team tank, but I mean, team tank
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: is playing a lot of young players that that that
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: that aren't your best players, or at least you don't
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: think they're your best players. And I think that's where
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: you can kind of towse it toes the line a
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: little bit. So I yeah, you don't have to come
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: out and say, you know, team tank. I get that.
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: I I I've seen that before. I mean, and I've
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: seen it in different leagues. They do it a lot
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: in the NBA or this day they did. They're trying
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: to crack on it. But playing younger guys that aren't
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: your best players, you know, That's that's kind of what
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: that is. And where it gets interesting is when you're
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: talking about coaching coaches that may or may not be
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: here next year. So who are they playing for, you know,
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: and who are we evaluating for? So that's that's always
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: where it gets tricky. I you know, but I mean
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: the Cowboys don't have to. I mean they right now
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: that they're playing young players because a lot of them
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: are hurt, a lot of their veterans are hurt, so
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: they have no choice that. I don't think anyone's going
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: to be accusing the Cowboys of tanking any games by
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: the guys that they go out there and play. But
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: I get what you're saying. I'd like to see some
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: of these safeties, you know, I'm fine with that bell
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: Juan Ye Thomas. I don't think they're perfect either. I mean,
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: they get opportunities on special teams, and if you look,
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: they make some mistakes there. They get some penalties on
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: that part as well. But they have a little bit
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: of more athleticism maybe, So I'd like to like to
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: see them play some I think. I think that wouldn't
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: be bad. I don't I don't think the Cowbities are
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: getting a lot out of out of their safeties. But
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: to be fair, this might have been what it's been
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: all along for those safeties. They just it's not they
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: don't look the same when it's not digs in bland
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: or Gilmour at corner and tank in Micah rush in.
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: The passer safeties might look a little different there, so
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: maybe maybe we should give them the benefit of the doubt.
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: Maybe you know that that that that happens. All right,
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: Let's go to Esteban in Austin.
• 15:34
  Speaker 7: Hey, Nick, how's it going good?
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: How are you doing?
• 15:37
  Speaker 4: I'm doing well.
• 15:40
  Speaker 7: I see the season kind of spiraling a little bit.
• 15:44
  Speaker 7: It makes me think about Mike McCarthy's future. I think
• 15:50
  Speaker 7: he's I don't know, he was my guys this whole season,
• 15:53
  Speaker 7: the last few seasons, but I've really rooted for him.
• 15:56
  Speaker 6: I've liked what.
• 15:57
  Speaker 7: He's done, but I've kind of come to the conclusion
• 16:00
  Speaker 7: that I feel like the league has kind of passed
• 16:03
  Speaker 7: them by a little bit. His creativity, his run, his
• 16:09
  Speaker 7: run offense has kind of stagnant, and I think that's evident.
• 16:15
  Speaker 7: Where you see teams with equal talent or better, he
• 16:21
  Speaker 7: really struggles. And I think that's kind of why he
• 16:23
  Speaker 7: struggled in the in the playoffs and when going up
• 16:28
  Speaker 7: against really good teams. Is I think he just he
• 16:31
  Speaker 7: has to be the difference, and I don't think that
• 16:33
  Speaker 7: he can be. So I don't want to see him go.
• 16:37
  Speaker 7: But if he does, you know, I'd like to bring
• 16:40
  Speaker 7: in somebody who's a little bit more up to date.
• 16:42
  Speaker 7: And what are your thoughts?
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: I think that sounds good. You know, you got to
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: remember who's making that decision, and you know it's it's
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: got to be okay again. And I said this out
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: of respect yesterday. I'm not talking about I don't I
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: don't want to talk about any other coaches and especially
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: specific names and all that stuff, because I just I
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: don't think it's fair to the guy that's here. I
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: understand where the fans, it's easy for people wherever you
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: live to say, you know, hey, what about next year?
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: You know, I get it, and I and I do
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: the same. And listen, I'm not being hypocritical here. I'm
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: a fan of my team. Everyone knows that, okay, I'm
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: I'm an Arkansas razorback fan. Same situation right now, same
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: same deal. Probably not going to keep the coach if
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: it goes like this. Do I want them to? And
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: someone even asked me that, you know what, oh what
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: if y'all have Texas coming up? Y'all beat Texas? He
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: saves his job, you know, I mean, is that good?
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: I'm like, yes, you know, yes, I'm always rooting for that.
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: As a fan, I'm always rooting for that. I don't
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: care if if that means, oh, okay, the coach saves
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: his drop. Fine, that means that means they're good enough
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: to win and what. And I understand all circumstances are different,
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: but I'm saying I'm always about winning the game. I'm
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: always winning the game. So out of respect for that
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: and respect for the coaches over there, I don't like
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: talking about coaches and you know, down the line and
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: all that, I'll say this to answer your question, though,
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: just remember who's making the decisions. So if it ever
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: does happen where there's a new coach or whatever, you know,
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: you got to remember that, you know Jerry and his
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: age and all that, and if he's going to have
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: somebody that's that's going to kind of be learning on
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: the run, you know, a younger coach that you know,
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: learning how to be a coach and all that. If
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: you look at some of the last hires, that's not
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: been the case. But again, that's as much as I'm
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: going to say about that. I really don't I think,
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: you know, as a head coach in any job. I mean,
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: not just a football coach, any job. If you're here
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: to do a job, do a job. The last thing
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: you need is anybody in the building talking about, well,
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: who's going to be the next guy. Well, I don't
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: know who's going to take my job, you know. I mean,
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: I'd hate for that those conversations to happen. So again,
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: I understand else point. But at the same time, I
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: deal with it with my team, and I don't go that.
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: I don't go there. I mean, let's let's go win
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: the games that matter what it means long term, Let's
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: go win the game. And that's that's the way I
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: look at it. All right, let's go to uh Ali
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: in Florida.
• 19:16
  Speaker 11: Good morning, sir.
• 19:17
  Speaker 4: How are you pretty good?
• 19:19
  Speaker 11: Buddy?
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: How are you good?
• 19:21
  Speaker 11: I've gotta comments and a question, okay, but I think
• 19:27
  Speaker 11: the question you won't be able to answer. I would
• 19:30
  Speaker 11: love to get Rob's opinion if he called so in.
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: His study of cab Wait, wait, hold on, are we
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: doing this now? I was like, am i am I
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: the secretary for Rob? You're gonna just throw a question?
• 19:40
  Speaker 11: No, no, you wan't answer it because I don't want
• 19:43
  Speaker 11: to put you in that spot. Because it's very uncomfortable
• 19:47
  Speaker 11: for you to answer, but I would love to hear from.
• 19:50
  Speaker 10: You, honest to God.
• 19:51
  Speaker 11: All right, But so in history of Cowboys, besides this star,
• 19:57
  Speaker 11: we always had a great running back and a good,
• 20:02
  Speaker 11: great offensive line. So I look at history, is the
• 20:07
  Speaker 11: Emmett door, said Zeke DeMarco, Murray Daryl Johnson. But I
• 20:14
  Speaker 11: think we got away from it in good luck or
• 20:17
  Speaker 11: bad luck or how we drafted. So I think I
• 20:22
  Speaker 11: don't understand why NFL devaluing the running back when it
• 20:27
  Speaker 11: comes to the bad weather running out the clock. I
• 20:30
  Speaker 11: think the running back is a very very important part
• 20:33
  Speaker 11: of the team as well, besides the quarterback and rushing defenses.
• 20:39
  Speaker 11: But the question I had for you, I'm looking at
• 20:44
  Speaker 11: two coaches. The only problem I had with McCarthy is
• 20:48
  Speaker 11: like five years ended the game times and adjustment, especially
• 20:55
  Speaker 11: adjustment in a halftime. I don't care all the coaching staff.
• 20:59
  Speaker 11: There'sow for some reason, the Donalds. I'll look at Bill Belichick.
• 21:05
  Speaker 11: He's a great defensive coordinator and he coached Lawrence Taylor,
• 21:12
  Speaker 11: and I think it would be good for Michael just
• 21:14
  Speaker 11: in case they want to go any route, or if
• 21:17
  Speaker 11: you want to go to the younger version. I think
• 21:19
  Speaker 11: the hottest coach is Ben Johnson, if you could. I
• 21:22
  Speaker 11: know you said, anybody, it's not fair because coach McCarthy
• 21:27
  Speaker 11: is coaching. That's why I said, you might not be
• 21:29
  Speaker 11: able to answer it. So, but anybody want to answer. Well,
• 21:33
  Speaker 11: love to get some general opinion on it. And I
• 21:36
  Speaker 11: thank you so much, sir, and happy Thanksgiving and best
• 21:41
  Speaker 11: of luck with young family.
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: All right, thank you appreciate that you asked the question
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: about the running back position and being devalued and and
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: and I think you know, when when you when you
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: look at it, you've seen some guys. You've seen some
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: six from running backs that aren't drafted high. And so
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: I think there is a perception there that you can
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: with a good offensive line, you can plug in a back.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: You know, I don't know. I think you're starting to see, though,
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: you're starting to see like this year might change it
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: a little bit. I think you know, there has been
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: a resurgence at the running back position, and uh, you
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: know guys that went to different teams. The free agent
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: market was was strong. There's teams that probably had that
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: those thoughts. We can let Derrick Henry go, we can
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: let Joe Mixon go. We can let Sayquan Barkley go.
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: And I bet you there's some people that wish that
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: they would have thought it differently and not letting those
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: guys go, or maybe wishing they would have paid more
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: to to sign them. So it's kind of a cycle
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: type thing. And I and I, you know, and I'm
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: looking at the last few rushing leaders for the season,
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: and I can't remember exactly where Josh Jacobs where he
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: was drafted, but I'm looking at most of these guys
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: are second, first and second round picks. You know, Derrick,
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: Henry McCaffrey, Jonathan Taylor, Josh Jacobs, Henry Henry, Zeke Kareem
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: Hunt was not maybe a third round pick if I
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: remember Adrian Peterson to Marco Murray, Lashawn McCoy, you know,
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: first and second round, Arian Foster goes all the way
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: down to twenty ten. He was like a seventh round pick.
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: That's probably where it started, you know, like where they
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: started to kind of dip, like wait, a second seventh
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: round pick can come in here and do this, So
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: that I think it's changing a little bit from the
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: running back position. To go back to what you said again,
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: you know, you guys understand y'all can talk about that
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: amongst yourselves, and you know that's what those Twitter spaces
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: and the community storyline community that that's what that's for,
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: you know. And I'm not, you know, blind to it.
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: I understand. I mean I I we all get it.
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: We all know the situation that McCarthy was entering this
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: season without a without a contract. H so you know
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: for passed this year. So yeah, I mean we we
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: know what it is. Now. I don't know how Jerry
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: views this type of season with the injuries, because yes,
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: that's that's that's been a factor here of course now
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: losing Dak and all that. But but I don't think
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: the coaches should get a pass for everything, because there's
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: been some lack of preparation, uh, which is very evident
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: uh in these games the way you know, we've started
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: games and the way that they've started the third quarter
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: and all that. There's the preparation hasn't been there. Uh,
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: and these slow starts and the penalties and all that.
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: So you have to blame you know, the players and
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: coaches for for all that. Let's take a break here
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: on Cowboys storyline. We'll come right back and get some
• 24:59

  Speaker 10: Nick?
• 27:27
  Speaker 6: How you making him?
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: I got?
• 27:28
  Speaker 6: I'm good man, You I'm making it?
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: What's worse? Let me ask you what's who's more restless?
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: The Cowboy fans for the OU Sooner fans over there
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: in Oklahoma. I'm not saying you're an OU fan. I
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: don't know if you are, but I mean you can
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: hear throughout me.
• 27:44
  Speaker 6: I'm an LSU fan, but I work at Norman, so
• 27:47
  Speaker 6: whenever OHU loses, I work overnights. When I drive into town,
• 27:52
  Speaker 6: the whole town is quiet. Man, you wouldn't believe. I'll
• 27:54
  Speaker 6: drive right by campus on the way to work. But
• 27:56
  Speaker 6: when they win, Man, you don't know what you're gonna
• 27:59
  Speaker 6: see driving dotes. Okay, You fans have a lot of
• 28:06
  Speaker 6: questions about their quarterback, and I do too.
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 28:10
  Speaker 6: Well, they're pretty uneasy.
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, and I and I know there's another
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: there's other universities there that played Division One. But it
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: is a very you know, it's it's an OU town.
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's a State. It's definitely it's the Sooner State,
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: so I think so they call it. And the only reason
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: I bring it up is it's it's very similar to here,
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: you know, like you you kind of live it and
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: you feel it. And and man, when when football is
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: not going well, it's like the economy isn't going well,
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: and it's it's the same with with the Cowboys too
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: and so. And I was just there not too long ago,
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: took my daughter there maybe as a school that she's
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: going to go to, and it was a battle loss
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: in South Carolina, but but wow, what a great campus.
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: Again not to tur that. It just reminded me of
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: when football is not going well. It's like it's like
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: it's just not the same, you know, I get.
• 28:57
  Speaker 6: It, all right, ex all right, I come to talk
• 29:01
  Speaker 6: about the Mingo trade. First of all, I want to
• 29:05
  Speaker 6: say I completely agree with what you said about the
• 29:07
  Speaker 6: trade yesterday, So I'm not going to go at all that.
• 29:11
  Speaker 6: But what I will go into is, first of all,
• 29:14
  Speaker 6: I think I have a grasp of what the Cowboys
• 29:16
  Speaker 6: may be trying to do here. They really want to
• 29:18
  Speaker 6: compliment for CD LAMB because if you look at what's
• 29:22
  Speaker 6: being put on taping on the field. There hasn't been
• 29:25
  Speaker 6: any great compliments to this point this season for Lamb,
• 29:28
  Speaker 6: and obviously Cooks is out that would probably be the
• 29:30
  Speaker 6: best compliment. But what they're really trying to do is
• 29:33
  Speaker 6: between Brooks and Florini and Mingo, I think is trying
• 29:37
  Speaker 6: to find that big bodied receiver to really compliment CD
• 29:40
  Speaker 6: and which one develops the best could earn that spot,
• 29:43
  Speaker 6: get more darts on the board, so to say. And
• 29:47
  Speaker 6: another thing I wanted to talk about with that is
• 29:51
  Speaker 6: people's favorite thing to do in Cowboys Nation. It seems
• 29:53
  Speaker 6: like it's to target the front office. But when you're
• 29:57
  Speaker 6: looking for reasons to attack the front office, you're gonna
• 30:01
  Speaker 6: find a reason to be upset. Where I'm going with this,
• 30:05
  Speaker 6: people are comparing this trade to trades around the league,
• 30:08
  Speaker 6: and the situation just isn't the same. Yes, when you
• 30:11
  Speaker 6: look at DeAndre Hopkins and these other trades that have happened,
• 30:14
  Speaker 6: these are aging receivers. Some of them have very high
• 30:18
  Speaker 6: dollar contracts and some of their contracts are expiring. Yes,
• 30:22
  Speaker 6: that was a great move for those teams, but the
• 30:25
  Speaker 6: Cowboys are getting a player that's on a rookie deal.
• 30:28
  Speaker 6: He was just a second round pick a year ago.
• 30:31
  Speaker 6: And obviously you've been over the other stuff. He was
• 30:34
  Speaker 6: in a bad situation and whatnot. But anyway, the point
• 30:36
  Speaker 6: is this trade is just completely different from any other
• 30:42
  Speaker 6: trade that you can compare it to. So I just
• 30:44
  Speaker 6: think if you're getting someone you think is more valuable
• 30:50
  Speaker 6: than what you're offering for it than in your perspective,
• 30:54
  Speaker 6: that's a good trade. It doesn't really matter who you
• 30:56
  Speaker 6: compare it to. You see what I'm saying.
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: I know, Zak, Yeah, I know exactly what you're saying.
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: And you're right, you'd be surprised. I think the fans
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: would be surprised what the Cowboys could get for a
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: Maazi Smith, Like, it's the same type of thing. It's
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: I mean, we're only talking about ten to fifteen picks
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: different there. But you're a second a second year guy,
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: you you would probably get. I mean they would probably
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: get a fourth round pick, maybe maybe even higher than
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: that for a guy like that. And so you're right,
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: you you when you when the contract is cheap. I mean,
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: all these all these teams that Devonte Adams, they're done,
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: they're they're renting the player and then it's done. So
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: that's one thing that has changed over the over the
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: last few years is you're paying a premium for more
• 31:41
  Speaker 3: years on the contract. And and this is cheap. This
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: is a cheap contract on the guy that they really
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: liked as a second round receiver. And and he's a
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: big body. Like you said, I mean, he should be
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: able to win the bench press contest from the receivers immediately.
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: I mean, just look CD Jalen b Sjalen, Tolbert, Cavante Adams.
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: We're not talking about a lot of big guys here.
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: This guy should be able to do that. He should
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: be able to be a bigger receiver and a good compliment.
• 32:09
  Speaker 3: Like you said, do you have another question because I
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: got one for you.
• 32:12
  Speaker 6: Not really a question, but I do have a quick
• 32:15
  Speaker 6: comment about that. Also, if Cowboy's Nason Thanks, the front
• 32:18
  Speaker 6: office could have got him for a cheaper pick. I'm
• 32:20
  Speaker 6: pretty sure when they were negotiating on the phone they
• 32:23
  Speaker 6: would have got that done.
• 32:24
  Speaker 5: Y'all.
• 32:24
  Speaker 6: Don't think they brought up, oh well, what about a
• 32:27
  Speaker 6: fifth round pick or a sixth round pick. They probably
• 32:30
  Speaker 6: felt like, nah, we'll just hang on to this guy.
• 32:31
  Speaker 6: If you're not going to offer us value for this guy,
• 32:34
  Speaker 6: that's the last thing I have to say.
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: About that, well, I got a question for you that
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: you only get one this weekend. Okay, you said you're
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: a diehard LSU fan, Yes, sir, you're a diehard Cowboy fan. Yes, sir,
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: you get one this weekend, Saturday or Sunday.
• 32:52
  Speaker 6: I'll be honest with you. I'm not a huge, huge
• 32:55
  Speaker 6: college guy. And obviously, if I'm calling this show, I
• 32:58
  Speaker 6: believe Blue Man, my Cowboys. If we could beat these
• 33:03
  Speaker 6: these Eagles, that would just make my year, even if
• 33:06
  Speaker 6: we just don't win another game. Just beat the Eagles.
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: All right, Thank you, Kevin, appreciate that. And what I
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: was referring to, LSU plays Alabama this week, huge game.
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: They needed this win if they're going to do anything
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: in college football. What a rivalry that is. And it's
• 33:21
  Speaker 3: a night game there. It should be a lot of fun.
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: I know. I've been talking to Danny McCrae upstairs about it.
• 33:27
  Speaker 3: It's gonna be a good game. But he said Cowboys.
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: You know, that just goes to show he's probably not
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: calling three times, three or four times a week on
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: an LSU podcast like that. All right, let's go Armando
• 33:38
  Speaker 3: in Mexico City.
• 33:40
  Speaker 14: Hey, Nika, are you.
• 33:41
  Speaker 3: I'm good man, How are you doing good?
• 33:44
  Speaker 14: Getting harder to contact you?
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: What do you what's the vibe down there in Mexico City.
• 33:54
  Speaker 14: Well, you can imagine, not a very good one right now.
• 33:58
  Speaker 10: Yeah, actually, you know what.
• 33:59
  Speaker 14: They fandom in Medical City is really passionate. So you know,
• 34:06
  Speaker 14: people around the on the ledge right now. So yeah, anyway,
• 34:10
  Speaker 14: but still good going good. Uh, really hard to to
• 34:16
  Speaker 14: to get in my retireal bottom is really worn out.
• 34:21
  Speaker 14: I'm trying to call.
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: I appreciate it, I said, I appreciate you calling. You
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: calling for Mexican.
• 34:27
  Speaker 14: Yeah, I been trying to call since before the San
• 34:29
  Speaker 14: Francisco game. I actually was there. This was an interesting game.
• 34:33
  Speaker 14: I got there with my girlfriend, which for some reason
• 34:36
  Speaker 14: is a foreign nine Ers fan. Okay, I have to
• 34:39
  Speaker 14: review that.
• 34:40
  Speaker 10: So I was.
• 34:42
  Speaker 14: I was really surprised because I actually thought that I
• 34:46
  Speaker 14: was one to be the only one wearing blue in
• 34:48
  Speaker 14: the stadium. But there was a lot of cowboys fun.
• 34:50
  Speaker 14: I was really surprised about that one.
• 34:53
  Speaker 10: Yeah we're popular.
• 34:55
  Speaker 14: Yeah, so yeah, I really you know, Nick, I really
• 34:59
  Speaker 14: hate the Foreig nine Ers h even more than the Will's.
• 35:03
  Speaker 14: And yeah, since since the days of the catch was
• 35:08
  Speaker 14: just and I think it was eleven year old boy
• 35:12
  Speaker 14: and listening on the radio. I think that was the
• 35:15
  Speaker 14: only time I actually cried in a sporting event, you know,
• 35:18
  Speaker 14: so ever since then, So anyway, about the Mingo trade,
• 35:23
  Speaker 14: I really want to to say thanks to all of
• 35:26
  Speaker 14: you guys, because when I heard it for the first time,
• 35:29
  Speaker 14: I said who for a fourth round? But then after
• 35:33
  Speaker 14: listening to the to the programs, I I really now
• 35:38
  Speaker 14: I really liked it because the way it was explained.
• 35:42
  Speaker 14: So the same thing happens with the draft. At first
• 35:45
  Speaker 14: when you hear those names, say who. Then after listening
• 35:48
  Speaker 14: to you guys, it's really good to to understand where
• 35:52
  Speaker 14: is this coming from. So thanks to you and and
• 35:55
  Speaker 14: the rest of the gang.
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: With that, Yeah, well I appreciate I appreciate the call,
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: and and uh, you know, Mingo, it was one of
• 36:05
  Speaker 3: those things. It wasn't a who for me. I had
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: heard of him, but yeah, I didn't really know what
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: had what had happened, you know. And and there's always
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: the reason why people are getting traded, I mean, and so,
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: but there's always a reason why a team still wont them,
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: you know, And and that that happened, We're only a
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: year and a half removed from the draft from last
• 36:24
  Speaker 3: year guy that they that they liked, and you know
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: it's I I think from the last what the last
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: caller said, Gavin said, is that you know, this could
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: be a good compliment to to c D. But they've
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: got to develop him. He's gotta he's got to take
• 36:39
  Speaker 3: that next step. This isn't uh you know, we see
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: the highlights, but you're not playing Vanderbilt and and in
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: Auburn and Arkansas and those teams that he was he
• 36:48
  Speaker 3: was scoring against. I mean, this is it's different here,
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: and you can't just out athlete people and that he's
• 36:53
  Speaker 3: kind of got that size when you go in college,
• 36:55
  Speaker 3: you can you can do that. You can just you're
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: gonna win against this corner. He just can't. He can't.
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: He's not stronger than you, he's not faster than you.
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: You get to the NFL, it's different and they know
• 37:06
  Speaker 3: what you like to do and they know it. So
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: you got to take your game to the next level.
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: And that's what the Cowboys are banking on that he
• 37:11
  Speaker 3: can do that here. All right, thank you for the call, Armando,
• 37:14

  Speaker 2: Hey, hey, Nick, how you doing good hiring? I'm doing well.
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: It's a quick question for you, and then just a
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: comment for for Cowey Nation. My question for you is, uh,
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: what do you think they're gonna do after running back
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: and running back position? Now, I mean, we've seen Rico
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: Dado play play a couple of good games when he
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: was kind of the featured back, and I mean, I
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: know it wasn't like world world changing numbers, but he
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: provided like some semblance of a run game. So do
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: you think we're gonna going forward kind of see more
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: Rico hopefully against Eagles and and uh, I mean just
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: kind of going forward. And then umm, uh my my
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: comment was just really quick. I just I don't know
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: why Cowboys they should is losing hope in the team.
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: I mean, I know, I know we've got a lot
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: of injuries and stuff like that, but these guys are
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: gonna a lot of these guys are gonna come back,
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: you know, before the season's over. And it's just the
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: season's not over till it's over. You know, there's a
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: lot of football left to be played. And I think
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: I remember a nine and seven Giants team that win
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: and won a Super Bowl. I mean, I'm not saying
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: that was what the Cowboy's gonna do, but I mean
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: there's still that hope, you.
• 39:59
  Speaker 4: Know what I mean.
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: I I don't know what their injury situation was in
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: that season and all that, but I remember that they
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: kind of gritted out the last few games, made it
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: to the postseason, and then from there, you know, it's
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: kind of anybody's game what you get into the postseason.
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: So I don't know everybody I was talking about like
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: fire sale and do all these trades and all this
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: kind of stuff for draft pics, and it's like, we
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: still have a team. You know, we still got some
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: guys that I can can can get us, get us
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: through at least to the postseason, and then from there,
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: you know, it's anybody's game. So I just want to
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: just want try to pump somem hopeing into the cabalization there.
• 40:33
  Speaker 3: All right, Yeah, have a nice day, Greg. Thank you
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: for the call to answer the first question. Yeah, I
• 40:40
  Speaker 3: do think Rico will be the main running back. I
• 40:43
  Speaker 3: still think you're going to see some of Zeke though,
• 40:46
  Speaker 3: uh maybe Dalvin Cook as well. He's got one more
• 40:48
  Speaker 3: game to elevate before they're gonna have to make decision
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: on him. But I think Rico just gives you the
• 40:55
  Speaker 3: most versatility as a runner and a pass catcher. But
• 41:00
  Speaker 3: you know, he's just one of those guys where he
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: does good things and then you know, just maybe a
• 41:05
  Speaker 3: little careless with the ball. I mean, like he got
• 41:07
  Speaker 3: lucky to catch it. I mean, imagine if he just
• 41:08
  Speaker 3: dropped that touchdown in the end zone. I mean he did,
• 41:12
  Speaker 3: he did drop it, but it went into his lap
• 41:14
  Speaker 3: and so, you know, just like the Pittsburgh game, having
• 41:17
  Speaker 3: a great game and then he fumbles there in the one,
• 41:20
  Speaker 3: he got lucky that Dak fell on it right there.
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: But so he's got a you know, I think he's
• 41:26
  Speaker 3: their best option, but he's not perfect by any means.
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: And then yeah, you know why they're losing hope. It
• 41:32
  Speaker 3: was in hope. It's because they're losing games. That's why
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: fans are losing hope. They're losing games and they're falling behind,
• 41:37
  Speaker 3: and they're looking around at the standings and now you're
• 41:40
  Speaker 3: losing your quarterback. So you know there's a lot lost here.
• 41:43
  Speaker 3: But that's kind of why it is. But I appreciate
• 41:46
  Speaker 3: you having the hope. Like you said, you know, they're
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: ain't over till it's over, right, Robin Vegas ain't over
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: until it's over.
• 41:54
  Speaker 16: That's right.
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: How you doing, Nick, I'm good man. What's going on?
• 41:57
  Speaker 11: Well?
• 41:58
  Speaker 16: I heard my guy Ali.
• 42:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's for you, so so sorry. Hey, Rob, I
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: got a caller on the line for you here. I'll
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: just be your secretary. We got a call from Ali
• 42:09
  Speaker 3: and he has a question for you. Are you Are
• 42:11
  Speaker 3: you free, sir? I'm ready, I'm ready, Go ahead, go ahead.
• 42:17
  Speaker 16: Talking about Mike McCarty, I look at Mike McCarthy like
• 42:21
  Speaker 16: any free agent player. He's a free agent after this year,
• 42:26
  Speaker 16: so I have no problem talking about the future with him.
• 42:29
  Speaker 16: I'm not saying fire him today. That ain't gonna happen.
• 42:32
  Speaker 16: It won't happen during the year, So I think it's
• 42:35
  Speaker 16: fair game. I don't think he'll be back, and my
• 42:39
  Speaker 16: reason is, Jerry, There's there'd be no way Jerry could
• 42:43
  Speaker 16: sell him to us. You didn't sell him to us
• 42:46
  Speaker 16: after three, twelve and five years, you weren't sold. You're
• 42:50
  Speaker 16: not going to sell him to us after they go
• 42:53
  Speaker 16: four and you know, thirteen or five. So that's why
• 42:57
  Speaker 16: I feel he's gone now. He asked about two coaches
• 43:03
  Speaker 16: that obviously are going to be front runners, Bill Belichick
• 43:06
  Speaker 16: and Ben Johnson, and my feeling on that is, I
• 43:11
  Speaker 16: like Ben Johnson because he's young, but I'd rather have
• 43:15
  Speaker 16: Belichick because I know what Jerry would do to Ben Johnson.
• 43:19
  Speaker 16: He would control Ben Johnson. He would Ben Johnson would
• 43:23
  Speaker 16: doesn't have any cachet to stand up to a Jerry
• 43:27
  Speaker 16: Jones because this is his first job. He's happy to
• 43:32
  Speaker 16: be here. And that's you know, as fans, that's one
• 43:37
  Speaker 16: thing that we don't like about what's going on, where
• 43:41
  Speaker 16: Belichick walks in with eight rings combined and says to Jerry,
• 43:47
  Speaker 16: I got this back off a little bit. I'll take
• 43:50
  Speaker 16: care of He'll fix the defense. He will go to
• 43:54
  Speaker 16: it three four, which is an absolute need if you're
• 43:59
  Speaker 16: gonna sign Micah Paulson's said thirty five million plucks or
• 44:03
  Speaker 16: if you're not going to a three four, get rid
• 44:05
  Speaker 16: of him, you're wasting him. He will not survive. Belichick
• 44:09
  Speaker 16: will fix the penalties. It's it's just known as team
• 44:15
  Speaker 16: don't make penalties.
• 44:16
  Speaker 3: From how they beat the Eagles this week, they don't.
• 44:20
  Speaker 16: Okay, they don't because you have them too many factors.
• 44:23
  Speaker 16: You got the revenge factor of Kellen Moore. You got
• 44:27
  Speaker 16: the revenge factor of Saquon Barkley. He's been getting his
• 44:30
  Speaker 16: ass kicked by the Cowboys for nine years. You got
• 44:35
  Speaker 16: every team right now, Washington, Philadelphia, whoever, who the Cowboys
• 44:43
  Speaker 16: have been beaten down. This is this is get back time.
• 44:48
  Speaker 16: This is this is get back. That's why you hear
• 44:51
  Speaker 16: Washington calling out Dallas. This is this is what happens
• 44:55
  Speaker 16: when you make bad moves and yes, you get injuries,
• 45:00
  Speaker 16: and this is this is.
• 45:02
  Speaker 4: How it goes.
• 45:03
  Speaker 16: It goes as a fan, like Dylan said, I will
• 45:08
  Speaker 16: never root for them to lose. But what does excite me,
• 45:12
  Speaker 16: because we've seen this in the past. If this team
• 45:15
  Speaker 16: somehow is in the top ten, top seven of draft picks,
• 45:21
  Speaker 16: that means you're drafting high, like you said, in every round,
• 45:26
  Speaker 16: fix team could flip in one year back to dominance.
• 45:31
  Speaker 16: We've seen it when in twenty sixteen or seventeen when
• 45:34
  Speaker 16: they drafted Zeke and Dak So as Cowboy fans enjoy
• 45:41
  Speaker 16: the season, I'm not it is their hope.
• 45:44
  Speaker 11: I guess the shorter there is.
• 45:45
  Speaker 16: The Only reason why we don't feel like that is
• 45:48
  Speaker 16: they didn't play good when everybody was healthy. That's how
• 45:50
  Speaker 16: I look at it. But this team could flip extremely
• 45:55
  Speaker 16: fast into a really paralholse. We know what they need
• 45:58
  Speaker 16: if they could bring in the right coach, and I
• 46:00
  Speaker 16: do think it will be Bill Belichick, but only if
• 46:04
  Speaker 16: he's willing to bring in a young offensive coordinator. I
• 46:08
  Speaker 16: don't want him to bring back the band that he
• 46:10
  Speaker 16: had in New England. I don't want that. And if
• 46:13
  Speaker 16: that's what he's gonna do, Jim Jerry has to be
• 46:15
  Speaker 16: man enough to say no, I don't want that, sorry,
• 46:17
  Speaker 16: and then move on. But if Belichick's willing, now that
• 46:20
  Speaker 16: he's sat out a year to actually scan the field
• 46:24
  Speaker 16: and see who's out there, I think that'll be a
• 46:26
  Speaker 16: great combination uh him with a young guy and let's
• 46:30
  Speaker 16: see what happened.
• 46:30
  Speaker 3: All right, Rob, thanks for the thanks for the call.
• 46:34
  Speaker 3: If that didn't go as well as as I thought
• 46:37
  Speaker 3: it would go, Yeah, just because I'm not saying it
• 46:40
  Speaker 3: doesn't mean y'all can either. So we're gonna kind of
• 46:42
  Speaker 3: we're gonna table those conversations as far as uh, the
• 46:46
  Speaker 3: you know, the next the next coach or whoever whoever
• 46:49
  Speaker 3: that is. All right, Lester in Minnesota.
• 46:52
  Speaker 5: What's up? Hey, Nick?
• 46:55
  Speaker 4: Good morning to you man.
• 46:56
  Speaker 3: How you doing.
• 46:57
  Speaker 4: Hey, I'm calling because I'm I'm gonna little bit excited
• 47:02
  Speaker 4: about Cooper Rush. I'm not saying he's better than Dak.
• 47:05
  Speaker 4: I would never say that. I just like his style
• 47:09
  Speaker 4: better than Dak. I like the fact that he throws
• 47:12
  Speaker 4: the ball. I'm a pocket past the type of guy.
• 47:14
  Speaker 4: He throws the ball fast and accurately. He makes the
• 47:18
  Speaker 4: decisions real fast. So I think with that and with
• 47:22
  Speaker 4: some of our guys coming back, I think we got
• 47:24
  Speaker 4: a decent chance of beating the Eagles this week. And
• 47:32
  Speaker 4: like everyone's been saying this morning, I would never root
• 47:35
  Speaker 4: against the Cowboys as far as the next coach will
• 47:40
  Speaker 4: lead that up to Jerry, but I kind of agree
• 47:43
  Speaker 4: that it should be someone that that could kind of
• 47:47
  Speaker 4: stand up to Jerry if he decides to go that
• 47:50
  Speaker 4: way to a different coach and I think the score, Oh,
• 47:57
  Speaker 4: before I get the score, I have to say what
• 47:59
  Speaker 4: all always say until we get a good very good
• 48:06
  Speaker 4: at the same time, same time, right right, okay, we'll
• 48:11
  Speaker 4: be who we are right now. All right, score, I'll say,
• 48:15
  Speaker 4: if if Cooper rush can do his thing like he
• 48:21
  Speaker 4: usually does, I'm gonna go with twenty to seventeen Cowboys.
• 48:25
  Speaker 3: All right, we'll see, all right, well, thanks for the call, lesser,
• 48:28
  Speaker 3: appreciate that. We'll see if the Cowboys can can rally
• 48:34
  Speaker 3: around him. They're gonna have to. You know, it's one
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: thing to be a pocket passer, but the pocket has
• 48:38
  Speaker 3: to be clean. There's this this offensive line's got to
• 48:40
  Speaker 3: create somewhat of a pocket for him. You can't throw
• 48:43
  Speaker 3: the ball deep if you if you only have two seconds,
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: one second, you know, he's got to have a little
• 48:48
  Speaker 3: bit of time, get those receivers down there so you
• 48:50
  Speaker 3: can make some plays like that. There's something about Cooper Rushers,
• 48:54
  Speaker 3: no doubt about it. There's something about him that that
• 48:55
  Speaker 3: you know he can he can do some things. But
• 48:59
  Speaker 3: you know, we remember he won five in a row.
• 49:01
  Speaker 3: I guess or four in a row back in twenty
• 49:04
  Speaker 3: twenty two. And then they went to the Eagles and
• 49:06
  Speaker 3: they lost. He played, he had three turnovers and they
• 49:09
  Speaker 3: almost came back, but they didn't. And we've seen that
• 49:12
  Speaker 3: so many times this year. All Right, guys, appreciate the call.
• 49:15
  Speaker 3: We got one more show this week to talk Cowboys
• 49:19
  Speaker 3: and Eagles and hopefully just that. But I understand. I
• 49:22
  Speaker 3: get what you guys are looking ahead, and that's what
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: being a Cowboy fan is. You're gonna be a Cowboy fan.
• 49:27
  Speaker 3: You're invested in forever, so it's long term. I get it.
• 49:30
  Speaker 3: But try to stay in the moment as much as
• 49:33
  Speaker 3: we can. All Right, guys. For Chris be I'm Nick Eatman.
