  Speaker 1: The following.
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: He is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
• 0:08
  Speaker 3: Cowboys.
• 0:11
  Speaker 4: This is He's Cowboys Storylines with Nick Eapman.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Happy Friday, this time for another edition of Cowboys Storyline.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: It is September the fifteenth. I don't always know the date,
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: but I know this one is my mom's birthday. So
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: Happy birthday to my mother Camille, who is a listener
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: of this show every single day, so she's listening. So
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: I don't want to say how old she is, Larry Allen,
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: but she is. She definitely watches the show and she's
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: excited for this and so happy birthday to her. Tyler Smith,
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: but don't want to say how old she is. Speaking
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: of Tyler Smith, he is one of the guys of
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: the storyline. Here are the injuries that we're gonna be
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: monitoring all weekend. My gut feeling doesn't look good for
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: him to play this game. He's the one that I
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: think has a chance to probably be doubtful on the list.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks, that's gonna be close. I know there's a
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: lot of people that said MCL has been reported. MCL,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: which typically two to four weeks four to six weeks.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: I don't think that's the case. I don't think that
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: it's that serious. I think he has a shot to
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: play in this game. We'll see what he does practice
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: wise tomorrow. It's gonna probably come right down to it.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: Probably the smart thing to do would be sit him,
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: maybe for one week. But he's trying to play. So
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks I don't think is completely out for this
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: game at all. Donovan Wilson and Jordan Lewis, both of
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: those guys have a good chance to play. It sounds
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: like Jordan Lewis is gonna play because he's not even
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: on the injury report. So that's the big storyline there
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: from the Cowboys as they get ready for the Giants.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: I know you guys have a lot of things to say.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: We got the call, We got the phone lines open
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: eight eight, eight, eight, five five to two ninety seven.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: You can also text eight one seven two nine zero
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: three two nine eight. We will go right to the
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: phone line though. Let's get this this thing started. Kurt
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: in Arkansas, Kurt, Hey, Nick, how are you doing. I'm great?
• 2:17
  Speaker 5: How are you big fan of the show? I'm great.
• 2:22
  Speaker 5: I'll tell you how I am. I was born. I'm
• 2:25
  Speaker 5: with a year old when they played the first Super Bowl.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, so that's uh yeah, yeah, you're that
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: much old, I mean, not much older than me.
• 2:34
  Speaker 6: So what do you got for me?
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: Oh well, I think the Cowboys are gonna win, gonna
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: win thirty to thirteen.
• 2:42
  Speaker 6: Okay, why so, Dunne, do.
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: You say Donald is gonna play?
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: I think he has a chance. He was limit limited
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: in uh in practice, has a shot. They're not gonna
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: be rushing it back. But has a chance.
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: But if it'd be good if he you play, Yeah,
• 3:01
  Speaker 5: he's a good he's a good he's a good part
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: of that defense.
• 3:05
  Speaker 6: Yeah, he definitely is.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: I will say this though, I mean jan Ye Thomas
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: and markis Bell are going to play the way that
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: they're playing. That's kind of what you're expecting at the
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Donovan Wilson. So I'm sure Donovan would be better, but
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: but they are. It's not a huge drop off right now.
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: All right, I know I've been watching, all right, they're
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: a good team.
• 3:26
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I think I.
• 3:27
  Speaker 5: Think I think I think they're going all the way
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: this year.
• 3:30
  Speaker 6: All right, all right, well you heard it right here.
• 3:33
  Speaker 6: You heard it.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: You heard it thirty first from from Kirk because people
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: are saying it, but I appreciate the call.
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: There.
• 3:39
  Speaker 6: Let's go to Joe and Stanford.
• 3:42
  Speaker 7: Joe, what's up, Hey morning, brother, Sorry I missed yesterday
• 3:46
  Speaker 7: my anniversary. I had to pick up flowers and stuff.
• 3:49
  Speaker 6: Fair fair, I mean, yeah, yeah, good, that's good.
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: Good.
• 3:53
  Speaker 6: Excuse there.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: Some guy from Merkle call though. He said he was
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: going to represent the area.
• 3:57
  Speaker 7: So yeah, I lifted the show every day work afterwards. Yeah,
• 4:01
  Speaker 7: and we used to play them Badgers then we whooped
• 4:04
  Speaker 7: their butt whenever I played them. So I hope he's
• 4:07
  Speaker 7: listening today too.
• 4:08
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 4:09
  Speaker 8: So a few things.
• 4:11
  Speaker 7: First, my fantasy defense. So I drafted the Cowboys fantasy
• 4:15
  Speaker 7: d in the fourth round, and generally you don't draft
• 4:17
  Speaker 7: a defense that early. I got made fun of a
• 4:21
  Speaker 7: little bit, but they're not making fun of me now.
• 4:25
  Speaker 6: Yeah. Yeah, won your game because of that?
• 4:29
  Speaker 7: Yeah yeah, the most points I've ever got off the defense.
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: What was it?
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: By the way, I was just curious, what was it?
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: How many points is that? Thirty five forty thirty four,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: thirty four?
• 4:39
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 4:40
  Speaker 6: Yeah, Well all leagues are different. I know.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Somebody told me the other day they got eighteen points
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: out of the Cowboys defense. I was like, what what
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: is that? Like, that's not even worth doing? Like eighteen yeah,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: shut out?
• 4:51
  Speaker 6: Wow, Yeah, I don't even know. I don't even know.
• 4:54
  Speaker 6: That wasn't that's not a lot at all.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: So no, not for a shutout, not for two touchdown,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: not for all the turnovers.
• 5:00
  Speaker 7: So yeah, that sounds like a rip off to me.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: But I just know all these are different. But still, yeah,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: that's that's that's huge. And you know it's not always
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: going to be that way, you know that, but still,
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: I mean it was it was the sacks and the
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: turnovers are something you can count on and and and
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: just probably not a lot of points scored on them.
• 5:18
  Speaker 7: Yeah. I think they're consistently gonna be one of the
• 5:21
  Speaker 7: better defenses for Fantasy all year. I'm super thrilled to
• 5:24
  Speaker 7: have them. And you know what, it wouldn't matter if
• 5:26
  Speaker 7: they weren't there. My Cowboys. I like repping them regardless. Yeah,
• 5:31
  Speaker 7: I think I'm a little worried about this Jets quarterback.
• 5:35
  Speaker 7: I know that scene sounds a little counter to what
• 5:37
  Speaker 7: everybody else has been talking about, but generally, whenever everybody
• 5:41
  Speaker 7: is so positive that somebody is gonna suck so bad,
• 5:46
  Speaker 7: then we usually are surprised.
• 5:49
  Speaker 9: Yeah, of course we're set.
• 5:50
  Speaker 7: We set the bass bar sort of low. But last
• 5:52
  Speaker 7: year we had a ton of trouble with running quarterbacks.
• 5:54
  Speaker 7: I remember, even quarterbacks we never heard of, like the
• 5:57
  Speaker 7: guy from Houston. All these guys were running all over us.
• 6:01
  Speaker 7: Gave us all sorts of trouble. I think DQ probably
• 6:04
  Speaker 7: has going to do a better job of scheming against
• 6:06
  Speaker 7: that this year, I'm hoping, but we'll see on that.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, thanks for the call, Joe, And you're right,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: these running quarterbacks have been a problem and one of
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: the reasons that I think you're seeing them draft overshown.
• 6:19
  Speaker 5: Uh.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Obviously, the injury will you know, end his season, but
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: they're going to use guys like Marquise Bell in that
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: in that role of one year, Thomas will be closer
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: to the line of scrimmage. Dom and Wilson when he
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: comes back, will be closer to the line of scrimmage.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: I think that's gonna help with that kind of stuff. Now,
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: if if teams want to run the ball right down
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: your throat, they want to get a guard into that
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: second level and block you know that these these undersized linebackers,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: then that could be.
• 6:43
  Speaker 6: An issue too.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, you you always give up something to get
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: something else. So in this case, I do think it'll
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: help with the running quarterbacks. I think those guys can
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: help cover tight ends. But you know, there's there's there's
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: also the element of them running the ball right at you.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: And the Giants can do I mean, sorry, the Jets
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: can do that with these two, with these two running backs.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: So it's it's gonna be a chess match, uh for sure. Well,
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: we'll see, We'll see what happens, all right. David in
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: Fort Worth, David, what's up?
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: Hey?
• 7:13
  Speaker 10: How you doing, sir? How are you doing today?
• 7:15
  Speaker 6: I'm good, you, I'm great.
• 7:16
  Speaker 8: Hey.
• 7:17
  Speaker 10: I just want to say I appreciate you taking my
• 7:18
  Speaker 10: call every day.
• 7:19
  Speaker 7: Man.
• 7:19
  Speaker 10: It really is like the highlight of my morning to
• 7:21
  Speaker 10: be able to get on here with you, guys.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: I appreciate you calling every day. It's the highlight of
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: my morning that honestly, I mean, it really is. This
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: is this is my favorite forty five minutes of the day.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: I love talking to you, guys. I look up and
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: I'm like, it's always halfway through the show and and
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: I hate that. So I love I love interacting with
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: you guys, and and and I don't care if it's
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: the same people. I mean really, I like mixing it up.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: I like hearing from new new voices. But I also
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: like the people that are call every day because that
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: means you guys understand what we're talking about, what we
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: said yesterday, what we said the day before, and kind
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: of know what what the narrative is.
• 7:51
  Speaker 6: So I'm good with either way.
• 7:53
  Speaker 8: Dave, what you got, Yeah, Suir, quick question.
• 7:56
  Speaker 10: A couple of years ago, like maybe even more than
• 7:59
  Speaker 10: a couple of years ago. I think it was on
• 8:00
  Speaker 10: the break and I think Derek was was talking about it,
• 8:03
  Speaker 10: mister Eagleton.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: About like a it's Derek that you can just call it,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: you can go there.
• 8:09
  Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, it was.
• 8:10
  Speaker 10: Yeah, it was like a fan Friday or something like
• 8:13
  Speaker 10: that where y'all brought a fan in one time, just
• 8:15
  Speaker 10: throwing it out there. I'm not sure whether that was
• 8:18
  Speaker 10: like Shelf Forever or something like that, but I think
• 8:20
  Speaker 10: this show would be perfect for it, maybe like during
• 8:22
  Speaker 10: a bye week and there's not a whole lot of storylines,
• 8:24
  Speaker 10: so just throwing that out there, it'd be kind of cool.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yeah, because I have an answer to that.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: But but yeah, if you have a question, We'll go
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: with that. Then I'll answer to that on the second Yeah.
• 8:35
  Speaker 10: Well actually after that, I mean, if it was okay,
• 8:36
  Speaker 10: I just wanted to throw out a score prediction and
• 8:38
  Speaker 10: then a crazy, crazy prediction. Because score prediction, I think
• 8:41
  Speaker 10: it's going to be thirty one ten, but I actually
• 8:43
  Speaker 10: think it's gonna be kind of close at half. I
• 8:45
  Speaker 10: think people are going to be freaking out about the
• 8:46
  Speaker 10: offense still and stuff, and you know, I don't know why,
• 8:49
  Speaker 10: but you know, I think that they're going to have
• 8:50
  Speaker 10: a second half like more of an explosion. And then
• 8:53
  Speaker 10: my crazy prediction. I think Galat's going to have like
• 8:55
  Speaker 10: a really big game. I think he's gonna have two touchdowns.
• 8:58
  Speaker 10: My wife, my beautiful wife, listen to the replay and
• 9:01
  Speaker 10: wanted me to give a crazy prediction. She thinks that
• 9:03
  Speaker 10: the defense is going to get another defensive touchdown today.
• 9:06
  Speaker 10: It's going to be a strip sack fumble.
• 9:07
  Speaker 11: So I appreciate it.
• 9:09
  Speaker 10: Yeah, I appreciate you taking my costs there.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, hope Jessica is right about that. And Gallup, Yeah,
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: that would be that would be a big if Gallup
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: had a nice, a nice game Fan Friday. I mean
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: really though you know, it's it's fan every day here.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: I mean, and that's that's the that's kind of the
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: difference of this show, is we really you don't, I don't.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: I don't have a lot of these people to talk to,
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: So it's you guys. One of the things that we
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: are gonna we're working on though. You see this screen here,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: you know, behind me here you'll see you'll see that
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: we're gonna we're gonna get something working here where you
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: guys will be able to send in ten to fifteen
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: second clip just asking the question, just like you do now,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: just asking a question, you get to see your face
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: up there and get to see your name. We're working
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: on that where where you guys will be able to
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: do that. That will also be a fun part of
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: the show. Esp I'm gonna start that off with the people,
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: these these regulars that are calling in all the time.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: We'll see let's see their face, you know, if they're
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: if they're worth looking at. I'm kidding, because if that
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: was the case, I wouldn't be on here. So all right,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: good stuff. Let's go to the phone line Cosmo in Syracuse,
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: New York.
• 10:16
  Speaker 12: Cosmo, Hey, how you Jo and I have two questions
• 10:20
  Speaker 12: for you, all right. First is who is going to
• 10:24
  Speaker 12: take over after Jerry calls it a career at GM.
• 10:29
  Speaker 12: Do you think it's more Steven or Will? And also,
• 10:33
  Speaker 12: are you guys gonna do more Deep Blues like instead
• 10:36
  Speaker 12: of just preseason?
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, thanks for the call. I can answer
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: one of those better than the other, So I'll start
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: with that one. The the Deep Blues we're doing, we
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: do those every year. That's when they're when they air
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: live on on our local affiliate CBS that they air
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: before the preseason game, so that's typically when we put
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: them out. We don't we don't stagger them. We've talked
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: about that in the past, but really this is kind
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: of the plan for that. This is our We've done
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: nine seasons of Deep Blue, so this year coming up
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: here in season ten, uh, we're gonna try to make
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: it epic. I mean, it's gonna the storylines that we're
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: going to be using for this year, and we haven't
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: even finalized them yet, but but they are. They are
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: they have to be at a different level than what
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: we've seen before, so we're really gonna put a lot
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: more emphasis on that. But I don't see any changes
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: as far as when they're going to be coming out
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: for that.
• 11:33
  Speaker 6: I don't. I don't have an answer on the on
• 11:35
  Speaker 6: the on the GM.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm Steve, Steven stee every everything has been
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: for Steven, So I mean that's what I would imagine
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: when when that ever happens. That looks like the line
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: that that it would be. All right, let's go to
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: the lines again. I'm looking for uh any text lines,
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: but I don't see one yet, so we'll stay in
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: with the phone lines, Tim and grapevine. Tim, what's up?
• 12:00
  Speaker 13: How you doing, sir?
• 12:01
  Speaker 5: Happy Friday.
• 12:01
  Speaker 6: Happy Friday to you. I'm doing great.
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: Hey, my man.
• 12:05
  Speaker 13: I need you guys to get Rocket Sanders healthy for
• 12:07
  Speaker 13: the A and N game in a couple of weeks.
• 12:09
  Speaker 13: Need you all to beat A and M.
• 12:10
  Speaker 9: All right, So.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes that will be. I'm not saying that is
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: the plan. That's always the plan, but I have there's
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: a lot of people that listen to this show. Some
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: of them could be A and M fans, So I'm
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: going to leave it at that. But yes, I hope
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: they win that game this year and every year.
• 12:32
  Speaker 13: So I think this Jets game is actually a sneaky game.
• 12:37
  Speaker 13: For the Cowboys. The Jets defense, they look stout. I
• 12:41
  Speaker 13: know they don't have Rogers, which is really disappointing. I
• 12:44
  Speaker 13: wanted to see what we could do against him. But
• 12:46
  Speaker 13: I still think the Jets are well coached, you know,
• 12:49
  Speaker 13: special teams that they got that playmaker Gibson, he's from
• 12:52
  Speaker 13: the Dallas area. Anyways, I just think it's a sneaky game.
• 12:57
  Speaker 13: No Brandon Cooks. And I'm just wondering, what are your
• 13:00
  Speaker 13: thoughts on offense? I mean, I feel like this is
• 13:03
  Speaker 13: a chance for McCarthy to kind of showcase himself as
• 13:07
  Speaker 13: a play caller against a good defense. So what are
• 13:10
  Speaker 13: your thoughts on your expectations this week?
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: I like it all right, Tim, I like that. I mean,
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: you're right, this is this is a good showcase for
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: McCarthy and for for everybody, for Dak for you know,
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: for this just the not the new faces, but just
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: this new offense. This is what it is, and let's
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: see what it's going to be like. Because if you
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: go back even back when when it was you know,
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: the forty nine ers in the West Coast offense and
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: all that, well they you know, how do you stop
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: these these the short passing game? That sort of a
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: called a finesse offense is what it was also called
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: back in the day. Well, you know teams like the
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: Giants in the eighties, the Bears, you know the Cowboys
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: there later in the nineties. I mean, that's how you
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: combat an offense like that is to be physical and
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: make sure there's absolutely no way that you could run
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: the ball on us like that and and just turn
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: it into a fistfight. And so that's that's what I
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: think the Jets tried to play. They played that way.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: So that's that's why this is going to be kind
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: of different from a style. You always say styles make fights.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: They say that in boxing all the time. These are
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: two different styles, so it is going to be interesting
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: to see exactly how McCarthy calls the plays and how
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys are able to execute with them. All right,
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: let's go to the text line here. We do have
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: some some text questions coming in. This is from Richard
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: in Ohio. What do we need to do to keep
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: Dak protected this week against a good defensive front. How
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: many sacks does Mike get? So we're flipping from both
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: sides there. We'll start on the other side. How do
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: they keep them protected. I mean, you've got to, I
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: think for them, for the Jets, you know, I mean
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: it starts kind of on the inside that they like
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: to do that inside out thing. I think Zach Martin,
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: it should be fine. He's on the injury report with
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: a groin. He said it though the other day on
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: the radio one O five three the Fan he does
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: a weekly segment there on on Thursdays, He said that
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: that he the Cowboys was kind of taking care of him.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: He's gonna be fine, so expect him to play the
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: other guards spot though. Don't excuse me, I don't see
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: Tyler Smith being able to do a lot in practice
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: this week. That means he probably won't play. But I'm
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: not ruling. I'm not gonna rule him out. The Cowboys
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: get to do that not doing that. But I do
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: think that the inside front is going to be really,
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: really big, really important for the Cowboys to keep da upright. Also,
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: how many sacks Mike could get you know, probably you know,
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: one to two, so I think one and a half
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: would be a good would be a good number there.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: I could see him getting, you know, getting one. It's
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: hard to think that in the whole game. The way
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: he rushes that he's not going to get a sack.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: You know, that's that's a seventeen you know sack, you know,
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: average for I mean for the season, and that would
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: be what that is. And that's and I think that's
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: probably something that that he'll be around. I see him
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: being in that range this year, especially at the biggest
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: thing that happened was that Dorn's Armstrong and Osa and
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: those guys and and Fowler got four pressures. Those guys
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: right there. Because if they keep doing that, Tank got
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: a sack. They keep showing you that if you want
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: to if you want to block Micah this way, these
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: other guys are going to also eat.
• 16:16
  Speaker 6: So you got to figure it out.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: And I think because of that, it'll just keep going
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: back and forth with different game plans. And I do
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: think Mike is going to have a lot more sacks
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: this season. All right, let's go to the phone line again.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: Chris and Indy. What's up, Chris? Actually I've skipped the guys,
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: so Chris and Indy as I got Chris or I
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: got Jonathan Jonathan. Sorry, sorry Jonathan Jonathan Big Springs, I
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: missed you. I blame I blame Chris be.
• 16:43
  Speaker 14: Yeah, I would too.
• 16:46
  Speaker 15: This is my first time calling in your show.
• 16:49
  Speaker 6: Thank you.
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Chris is playing with his toys back there.
• 16:53
  Speaker 6: All right, thanks for calling in. Jonathan. What's up, man?
• 16:58
  Speaker 15: I know I had hopes for the season, but I
• 17:00
  Speaker 15: know the offense line get banged up, is not catching.
• 17:03
  Speaker 15: I hope the offense can keep up with their defense.
• 17:06
  Speaker 15: The defense will do good. I believe the Cowboys win
• 17:09
  Speaker 15: this game.
• 17:10
  Speaker 16: Thirty to three.
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: Okay, I mean, well, you know, I'll say this. I mean,
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: that's your opinion, and that's fine. I mean, I don't
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: think the offense doesn't have to keep up with the defense.
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: I mean they're not. They're not playing each other. So
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: I mean, if the defense is way better, that that's fine.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: Offenses has to be, you know, just play complimentary football
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: and and kind of play into the fact that you
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: have this great defense. I'm not as worried about the offense.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: I don't think you are either, Jonathan. Thirty to three,
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: I don't think you're You're that concerned. Right, you get
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: thirty points on the Jets. I mean I don't think
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: that last year. I looked at this quickly. I think
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: the Jets only gave up thirty points one time last
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: year and they actually won the game. But for the
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: most part, they were not giving up a lot of points.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: So thirty points a lot.
• 17:58
  Speaker 15: Most of defense, I think we get a lot of
• 18:00
  Speaker 15: sax and bumbles our defense.
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: Defense.
• 18:04
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and everybody, yeah.
• 18:07
  Speaker 15: Offensive line is right now is getting hurt and it's
• 18:09
  Speaker 15: like wow.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, well we'll see, we'll see how they they
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: patch it up. You don't think we heard a whole
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: lot from from too many Dogo the other day, which
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: is a good thing. Uh, he he played well at
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: guard and and Zach Martin. I wouldn't say he's he's
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: really gonna he's not really on I mean he's on
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: the injury report. I think he's gonna play. Tyron Smith
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: is on the injury report. He's practiced in full this week.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: So it's not as bad as it looks. You just
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: look at the injury report. You see your three, you know,
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: three starters there. That's not great. But I think I
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: think they're gonna be okay this weekend, that they're gonna
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: be relatively healthy other than Tyler Smith. And I know
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: I'm sound like I'm I'm ruling him out. I'm not.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: I just feel like he's probably because he hasn't done
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: a lot. And now Mike, Mike McCarthy said today this
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: morning on the radio, he said that that if there
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: was a practice today that he.
• 18:59
  Speaker 6: Would he deal with the rehab group.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: So, uh, probably not gonna practice until maybe tomorrow.
• 19:05
  Speaker 6: If that all right? Now we're going to go to
• 19:07
  Speaker 6: Chris and Andy on the phone line. Chris, what's up?
• 19:10
  Speaker 9: What's up?
• 19:11
  Speaker 11: Nick?
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: How you doing? Man?
• 19:12
  Speaker 6: Great?
• 19:12
  Speaker 5: You great? Man great?
• 19:15
  Speaker 14: I can't wait till Monday. I think the Cowboys fans
• 19:19
  Speaker 14: sometime's gonna freak out. So I think this is gonna
• 19:21
  Speaker 14: be an ugly game. It's gonna be like seventeen to three,
• 19:23
  Speaker 14: twenty to six. And even though against the Giants, I
• 19:26
  Speaker 14: think the offense scored five or seven possessions, you know,
• 19:29
  Speaker 14: put up twenty seven or twenty eight, they were still
• 19:32
  Speaker 14: complaining what's wrong at the offense? And after we win
• 19:35
  Speaker 14: like seventeen three, twenty to six something like that, it's
• 19:38
  Speaker 14: gonna be an ugly game. The just defense is for real.
• 19:40
  Speaker 14: The fans are just gonna what's wrong with McCarthy Collin plays? Yeah,
• 19:46
  Speaker 14: so yep, you go ahead, I'm sorry man. The just defense,
• 19:54
  Speaker 14: they're like the forty nine ers defense. And of course
• 19:58
  Speaker 14: everybody's seen the last couple of years power offense hasn't
• 20:02
  Speaker 14: been really you know, moving the ball and doing a
• 20:04
  Speaker 14: whole lot against the forty nine ers defense. And they're
• 20:08
  Speaker 14: like a splitting endings of before of the they don't
• 20:10
  Speaker 14: have Nick Bose of course, right.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: Right, Well, this is this is this is a different
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: offense obviously, and this is because of those games. Thanks
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: for the call, Chris, because of those games against the
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: forty nine ers. I mean, if you lose your season
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: ends to one team two years in a row, you've
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: got to figure out ways to to you know, change that.
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: Think about that. Go back to the nineties if you can,
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: or you know the people that that that do remember that.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: You know, the Packers were losing to the Cowboys every
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: year in the playoffs ninety two, I think, ninety three,
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: ninety four, ninety five. You know, they had to keep
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: getting better, figure out a way to get better than
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys. The forty nine ers the same thing. They
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: lost to the Cowboys a couple of times. They had
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: to go get Dan and kid Norton to be to
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: beat them. Then the Cowboys lose the four Niners. They
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: got to get Dan back to go to beat them.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: So you figuring out ways to beat the team that's
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: knocking you out of the playoffs. And I think that's
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: what the Cowboys tried to do. They're not as physical.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: They weren't as physical in some of those games, or
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: they they tried to. They play the same way. They
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: run zeke up the middle, are bigs versus your bigs,
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: And that didn't work. So now they're changing it up
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: a little bit. Now they're gonna they're gonna try to
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: combat that with speed. They're gonna do some things on
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: the edges. We're gonna play this game differently, and the Jets,
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: I think will be a good test for that. So
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: because they're not exactly like the forty nine ers defense,
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: but they're gonna be a pretty close and a good
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: test here in week two, we're gonna go to break
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: real quick. When we do, we're gonna come back. We
• 21:34

  Speaker 6: It's September the.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: Fifth, fifteenth, a couple of days before the Cowboys taking
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: on the New York Jets. Let's go back to the
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: calls Chris and Mississippi, Chris.
• 24:07
  Speaker 6: What is up?
• 24:09
  Speaker 9: How are you doing there?
• 24:10
  Speaker 6: I'm doing great and you I'm doing great myself.
• 24:14
  Speaker 9: And I wanted to tell you. First thing is that
• 24:16
  Speaker 9: you can't blame anything on Chris. This is a no
• 24:18
  Speaker 9: blame any guy named Chris Day.
• 24:22
  Speaker 6: Is clue.
• 24:23
  Speaker 9: How about how about how I called you earlier and
• 24:26
  Speaker 9: I asked about Lyell Collins, And how about the intuition
• 24:29
  Speaker 9: that that was just like weird that I called and asked.
• 24:33
  Speaker 5: You about it.
• 24:33
  Speaker 9: The next thing you know, he's on the market. I know,
• 24:36
  Speaker 9: I just I have this to say about that. I
• 24:40
  Speaker 9: didn't say anything about him earlier to wonder about him
• 24:44
  Speaker 9: being a tackle, because where was he best at when
• 24:47
  Speaker 9: he was at the Cowboys. He was not best as
• 24:49
  Speaker 9: a tackle. He was best when he was on the inside.
• 24:54
  Speaker 9: And where do we need help the inside? I know
• 24:56
  Speaker 9: the man's coming off an injury. Probably what I got
• 24:59
  Speaker 9: let go. Yeah, But the other thing I want to
• 25:01
  Speaker 9: say is is that Jerry Jones needs to come up
• 25:04
  Speaker 9: with a sponsor from a chill pill. The offense scored
• 25:09
  Speaker 9: twenty seven points last week. People, just because they didn't
• 25:13
  Speaker 9: throw the ball all over the place like everybody wants
• 25:18
  Speaker 9: them to do, and they're not flashy like everybody wants
• 25:21
  Speaker 9: them to do. Doesn't mean that there's anything wrong with them.
• 25:24
  Speaker 9: And I would love to ask all you people that
• 25:27
  Speaker 9: want to kill the tight ends for dropping a wet
• 25:30
  Speaker 9: football in a driving rang to go out there and
• 25:33
  Speaker 9: do the same thing. And I mean, I just think
• 25:36
  Speaker 9: that this is just crazy, Like it's just absolute craziness.
• 25:40
  Speaker 9: And I knew it watching the game. I was like, Oh,
• 25:43
  Speaker 9: people are going to be saying that our offense is
• 25:45
  Speaker 9: not good. People are going to be saying that we're
• 25:49
  Speaker 9: never gonna win anything, and blah blah blah blah blah.
• 25:52
  Speaker 9: But I mean they're not taking into context of what's
• 25:55
  Speaker 9: actually going on.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, Chris, I appreciate it. I'll say this though,
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: like we we like to throw that out there a
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: lot the people and you know, callers or fans or
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: you know, just just in general, but we haven't really
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: had that on this show. I mean, I give you
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: guys credit for that. I mean most of the people.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: I mean that there's been some concern about the offense,
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: but not to the point of anything, you know, irrational.
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: I mean, I just I think for the most part,
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: everyone kind of understands what it was. I mean, I
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: haven't we haven't had any calls or texts or anything
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: about the tight ends. I mean, it is what it is.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: Nobody's asking those guys to be Kelsey. They're they're not
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: that this this team isn't going to be great because
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: of their tight ends. I think that some one of
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: those guys might develop into a player like that, and
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: if that happens, that's great. I mean, if Ferguson develops
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: into the player that Schultz was, but maybe a little
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: bit more of a blocker as well, a little bit
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: more dynamic down the field, great. And that's sixty five catches,
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: you know, and a guy that had nine touchdowns you know,
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: last year, and so that that would be outstanding. So
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: I don't think anyone's really doing that. Yes, I'm sure
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: you guys on your on your own Twitter and all
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: that stuff. I'm sure you guys hear that kind of stuff.
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: But for the people that call in and stuff here,
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: it really hasn't been that way, and that that's good.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: As for Lyle Collins, I just don't know what happened
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: in Cincinnati. I know that they can't block anyone, So
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: for them to let him go. That means that to me,
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: that means they're probably a little bit more than football.
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure what his situation would be, and I
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: just don't think the Cowboys are looking to make that
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: move right now. I think that they want to go
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: with the young guys as much as they can. If
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: they're forced into something because of an injury of long
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: term injury, then they might change their tune. But right now,
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: I don't think that they're going to go down that route.
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: All right, let's go to San Antonio for the phone
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: line for Paul.
• 27:56
  Speaker 16: Hey, Dick, how are you doing? Love the show?
• 27:58
  Speaker 5: Thanks? Man.
• 27:59
  Speaker 16: I just you're talking about the tackles, and that was
• 28:01
  Speaker 16: exactly kind of my question. Okay, thoughts on keeping a
• 28:04
  Speaker 16: Doga at guard and Tyler back to tackle and having
• 28:09
  Speaker 16: tire in as the reserve like swimming tackle role. So
• 28:13
  Speaker 16: I'll hang up, keep up the great work.
• 28:15
  Speaker 5: Thank you.
• 28:15
  Speaker 6: All right, thank you.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: Here's why that's not going to happen. And you're you're
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: just thinking to help the football team the best way.
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: But you also got to remember that the contract that
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: was renegotiated for Tyron Smith, it's like he makes a
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: million dollars every game he plays, and so it's he
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: can make up to fifteen to sixteen million, but it's
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: it could be four to five if he doesn't play
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: a whole lot. I don't think the reserve role is
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: what they had in mind with that. I don't think
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: that that's not in good faith for what they set
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: this thing up to be. And to be honest with you,
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: I think Tyron Smith is still a better left tackle
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: than Jim Maydoga would be at left guard. I mean,
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: Tyron and Tyler when they're healthy, I think is better
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: than Tyler and Jim Maydoga. And even if it costs
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: you a lot more money to do that, but I
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: think that that's kind of that's the plan there, and
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: so I don't think the Cowboys are looking to change
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: that out right now?
• 29:21
  Speaker 6: All right?
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: I got another text question here from Steve Williams from Charlotte,
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: North Carolina. Question, do you think the scheme plan against
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: the Jets would be outside runs, bending the corner, getting
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: to the edge. That's sort of something we've talked about
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: here this whole show about how to make this thing
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: go you know, horizontal if you can, I mean play
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: East West game at times. Everyone, Yeah, eventually got You
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: got to get North to do something. But I think
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys can use some speed on the outside. I
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: just don't think Tony Pollard up the middle against this front,
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: or any running back for that matter, up the middle
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: is going to be what they have to do to
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: get it done. But they have to do it at times.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: Your play action doesn't work if you don't run it
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: up the middle. You are going to have to do
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: it at times. You got to show the willingness to
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: do it. But I think you also have to be
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: smart about it as well. All right, G in New Jersey?
• 30:13
  Speaker 6: G what is up?
• 30:15
  Speaker 7: Nick? Man?
• 30:16
  Speaker 8: Sorry? I missed you and Bean last week over here
• 30:18
  Speaker 8: in Jersey.
• 30:19
  Speaker 6: Man, Yeah, we went out.
• 30:21
  Speaker 8: We know, man, I know, I know, but listen it
• 30:24
  Speaker 8: was fourth and goal at home, so you know I
• 30:26
  Speaker 8: had to I had to crunch it down with the wife,
• 30:27
  Speaker 8: you know what I mean. And I missed. I missed
• 30:29
  Speaker 8: Bean's message.
• 30:30
  Speaker 17: Man.
• 30:30
  Speaker 8: But next I got you guys next year for sure, for.
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: That might be the best line of the day. Fourth
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: and goal at home.
• 30:38
  Speaker 8: Existing Hey, you've been there, You've been there.
• 30:41
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, that's yeah. Well there's so many things I'll stay.
• 30:46
  Speaker 8: I pulled back to back nights that met light. I
• 30:49
  Speaker 8: was there on Monday night, and that air it was
• 30:53
  Speaker 8: much like when the Cowboys at halftime on Sunday night,
• 30:58
  Speaker 8: where uh, you know, the Giants fans, they were absolutely
• 31:03
  Speaker 8: numb and when Rogers got hurt right away the air
• 31:07
  Speaker 8: left the stadium. But this Jets team is built to
• 31:12
  Speaker 8: win right now, and they beat a team that is
• 31:16
  Speaker 8: also built to win right now. So I just think
• 31:19
  Speaker 8: that this is an awesome opportunity for the Cowboys to
• 31:24
  Speaker 8: beat one of the upper echelon teams in the NFL
• 31:26
  Speaker 8: minus the quarterback right and build up to that Week
• 31:31
  Speaker 8: five matchup against San Francisco. I don't want to get
• 31:34
  Speaker 8: to ahead, but if they put up good numbers against
• 31:38
  Speaker 8: this defense, that shows a good trajectory five team down
• 31:42
  Speaker 8: the stretch. But I have a question for you next.
• 31:45
  Speaker 8: This Jets defensive front has nine guys that they are
• 31:49
  Speaker 8: just gonna rotate and they're gonna go non stop against
• 31:52
  Speaker 8: our offensive line. And then I also think that on
• 31:55
  Speaker 8: the opposite side, they are going to run the ball
• 31:58
  Speaker 8: about thirty times. Again, I think the Cowboys key to
• 32:03
  Speaker 8: this game is to keep the Jets defense on the
• 32:05
  Speaker 8: field and just wear them out. By time of possession.
• 32:08
  Speaker 8: What side, offensive line or defensive line for us, concerns
• 32:13
  Speaker 8: you the most in this game.
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: And I'll let you go, all right, Well, it's it's
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: got to be the Cowboys offensive line versus the defensive line.
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: That's that's to me. Where where you've got you know,
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: you've got an all parl on that other side there
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: in Quentin Williams. But but like you said, they do
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: have a lot of depth there. They've been bad for
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: a long time. They draft high picks. I mean, they
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: that's that's.
• 32:34
  Speaker 6: What it is.
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: I mean that this you know, it's the league is
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: designed for you eventually to get better and and that's
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: that's kind of how it works. And I think the
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: Jets are at that point. They've got some uh you know,
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: a steady flow of really good players over there. So
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: I think that is a little bit more of the
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: concern from that side, especially with the Cowboys having a
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: little bit of injuries on on off the offensive line.
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: Uh yeah, they have to stop the run though that
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: there's no doubt they have to stop the run because
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: they the Jets don't want it to be third and
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: twelve all day long. For for Zach Wilson. They don't
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: want that. They want to run, They want to keep
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: keep them off balance. They want to probably throw some screens.
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: Watch watch for that. Watch for the screens. Dalvin Cook
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: has been a guy that's been really good at that
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: when he was with Minnesota, and and Brece Hallkin can
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: do that as well. That's a that's another good way
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: to offset that. Those the pass rush that the Cowboys
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: have and the blitz is that they like to to
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: throw out there so you can throw it over their head,
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: over the top and then this thing. You know, you
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: got these running backs in space. So it'll be fun
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: to watch for sure. But I think if you if
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: there's one side of the ball that that that you
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: would be a little bit more worried about, it would
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: be Cowboys offensive line. All right, Kent in Las Cruces,
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: New Mexico, Kent, what is up?
• 33:45
  Speaker 5: Hey?
• 33:46
  Speaker 19: Tell you this morning?
• 33:47
  Speaker 6: Great? How are you?
• 33:49
  Speaker 19: I'm good man. You're gonna be in trouble.
• 33:50
  Speaker 17: With your mom?
• 33:52
  Speaker 19: Nah a happy birthday.
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: Happy birthday. I mean, you can't be in trouble with
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: my mom for happy birthday. Just naming as favorite players
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: of all time.
• 34:03
  Speaker 19: Yeah, there was there was just one common factor there
• 34:05
  Speaker 19: I think your mom might pick up on that.
• 34:07
  Speaker 5: So how how.
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: Worried if I said Mackenzie Bernardo. If I were said
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: McKenzie Bernardo or Joe Looney, then she'd have been like,
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: well whoa.
• 34:14
  Speaker 6: But you know I didn't do that. I just said Larry,
• 34:16
  Speaker 6: all right, what's up? Man?
• 34:19
  Speaker 19: So how how should we be with Zach Martin on
• 34:22
  Speaker 19: the injury report at this point?
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: I don't think that worried. It sounded like us. He
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: was able to to look like I said a little
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: bit earlier, got on the radio and said that they
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: I think the cop was just kind of taking care
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: of me a little bit. I'll be fine, So I
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: wouldn't be too worried about that.
• 34:39
  Speaker 19: Yeah, I hope you're right. I mean, because he he
• 34:41
  Speaker 19: looked amazing last week. I mean he I think he
• 34:44
  Speaker 19: dominated that battle with Williams on that defensive line from
• 34:48
  Speaker 19: the Giant. I want to see it again, sure for
• 34:51
  Speaker 19: a Sunday. If they can control now on their flip
• 34:54
  Speaker 19: side there, If our defense can control the run game
• 34:56
  Speaker 19: and just keep it in check and they're not going
• 34:58
  Speaker 19: to stop those guys, they're going to get some yardage.
• 35:00
  Speaker 19: But if they can at least just not let them dominate,
• 35:04
  Speaker 19: hold them in check, and force him to throw the
• 35:06
  Speaker 19: ball a little bit. I think, v yeah, we can
• 35:09
  Speaker 19: maybe stretch the lead a little bit and force them
• 35:11
  Speaker 19: to throw and then let the guys on that defensive
• 35:14
  Speaker 19: line eat.
• 35:15
  Speaker 6: Yeah, go ahead, go ahead, Ken, And I'm going.
• 35:18
  Speaker 19: To say, I'm hoping that that's what's going to happen.
• 35:20
  Speaker 19: And going on that assumption, I'll say we win at
• 35:23
  Speaker 19: I don't know, twenty four to ten for ten.
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: Okay, that's close to the score that I have as well,
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: which I'll throw that out the end, you know, thanks
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: for call, Ken, And I also I think one thing
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: that needs to be considered about the Cowboys run defense,
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: especially this year, is that Gilmore and Diggs can can
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: change a lot because they I'm not saying that they're
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: just shut down, lockdown players, but they can cover well
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: enough to drop a safety down into the box a
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: little bit. And Deron Bland as well. You want to
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: go three white, you got three three cornerbacks that you
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: feel comfortable with, so you can commit a little bit
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: more to stopping the run, playing a little closer to
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: the line of scriptions and doing that because you're not
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: as worried are they gonna get beat sometimes, sure, Gilmore
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: will get beat, the digs will get beat. It'll happen,
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: But on a consistent basis, No, not really. We didn't
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: see that at training camp. But they got good receivers
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: on the other side for the Cowboys, and so I
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: think that that is ultimately going to help the Cowboys
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: run defense as well, because they have the cornerbacks that
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: can cover for just a second or two longer. And
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: that is a huge difference when you're talking about the
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: pass rush. All right, the phone line has Cowboy Mo,
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: the truck driver. He's in Oklahoma as we speak.
• 36:41
  Speaker 6: Cowboy Mo, what's up?
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: Hey, how you doing?
• 36:44
  Speaker 5: Love your show? I'm good, You're very knowledgeable.
• 36:46
  Speaker 6: Thank you.
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: I got a question for you. I got a question
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: for you. Do you hate it? Or does this still happen?
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: Because this is the thing when I was a kid,
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: you know, when you're driving and you got the kids
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: in the back, you know they do the like Honcorn signed.
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: Do people still do that?
• 37:00
  Speaker 5: Uh?
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: I love when kids do that.
• 37:02
  Speaker 6: They still do it?
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: So yeah, so what I yeah they do? And I
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: some track truck truck drivers don't do it because there's
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: someone sleeping in the back.
• 37:10
  Speaker 6: Okay, but I always I always.
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: Pull my horn for the kids. Now if you're and
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: now if you're an adult, because we have a city
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: horn as well. If you're an adult and you do it,
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: I'll give you the city horn.
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, good to know, good to know. What's
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: up cowboy mo?
• 37:25
  Speaker 8: All right?
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: So last year back through a lot of interceptions, do
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: you think that I had to do anything with his
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: injury that he went out with because before he didn't
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: throw that many uh ye? And then also on the
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: defensive side, we've always had issues stopping to run. How
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: do you feel about this year? Because the Giants ran
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: that whole uh that first drive on us, and then
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: after that, I think they got away from it because
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: you know, we took over the game. And so how
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: do you feel about our run stop?
• 37:56
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: Week and going forward?
• 37:58
  Speaker 6: All right, thank you.
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: I think you probably should have taken the call before
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: that point, because that's kind of what I was saying
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: about the Cowboys run defense. I think the cornerbacks are
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: going to help a lot with that. You know, first
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: game of the season, you're trying to see what the
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: Giants are doing, They're trying to see what you're doing.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: They have some plays scripted. It was working for him,
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: and the Cowboys kind of shut it down. I thought
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: the false start penalty on third and two on the
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: first drive changed the entire game because that fall start
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: penalty turned it into third and seven. Now you definitely
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: are going to throw and then they know that, and
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: now the deep I mean the center, you know, six
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: hopsit back there to Daniel Jones and it was fifteen
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: yards and then they kick a field goal which is
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: blocked and score a touchdown. I mean, you don't get
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: a false start in third and two, they probably get
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: convert that, and if they don't, they might go for
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: it on fourth down. So the percentage is high that
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: they get that and probably score touchdown. That could change
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: the entire game. So I thought that that false start
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: penalty and what was happening on that false start that
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: guy on the left tackle over there, Andrew Thomas, who's
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: trying to stop Michael Parsons. That's the kind of stuff
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: that that happens in a game like that, where Micah
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: Parsons makes a difference that you don't even see on
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: this stat sheet. You won't see that at all, that
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: the false start penalty happened because a guy is trying
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: to block Micah Parsons, but he's an X factor to
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: the highest degree, makes some huge plays there. Dak's interceptions
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: because of his injury a little bit, mainly because if
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: you remember some of the ones, not the not the
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: ones that were volleyballed up in the air, not not those,
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: I'm talking about the ones over the middle that that
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: happened a lot. And like at the end of half,
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: I thought the way he was trying to, you know,
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: just just the way he was trying to kind of
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: work with CD there at times, and I think being
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: out for a little bit, they trying to get on
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: the same page sometimes in that two minute offense as well,
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: that's where where a lot of that happened. So that's
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: that's a you know, that's certainly a factor here.
• 39:57
  Speaker 6: Sorry.
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: I saw a little bit of this clips of this
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: Eagles Vikings game that that's being shown on NFL Network,
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: and I didn't see any anything from last night doing
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: some high school football games I was at, but I
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: didn't see any of this play. But that looked like
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: a touchdown on Jefferson. I guess they called it back,
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: but I can't believe they didn't call a touchdown, looks
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: like you crossed the line here. And since I have
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: the Kirk Cousins is my quarterback, and I'm still kind
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: of mad about that. All right, we got another caller
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: here from clause in Denmark.
• 40:25
  Speaker 11: Clause Yeah, I'm it makes to pick up the phone.
• 40:30
  Speaker 11: I didn't expect that.
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: Well, you know what, if you call them from Denmark,
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: We're going to answer.
• 40:35
  Speaker 6: What's up?
• 40:36
  Speaker 5: That's great.
• 40:37
  Speaker 11: Well, and I have a ton of questions for you,
• 40:41
  Speaker 11: but but one of them is, you know, in Denmark
• 40:44
  Speaker 11: we played like a lot of soccer and handball and
• 40:48
  Speaker 11: not not much football, and we don't. Well, now they
• 40:53
  Speaker 11: have start to review the place. They got bough and
• 40:57
  Speaker 11: they got the other stuff, and I think it's true
• 41:00
  Speaker 11: in the game. What's your take on all the reviews.
• 41:03
  Speaker 11: I know, the catch with the catch with with with
• 41:07
  Speaker 11: the Bryan and stuff like that. But I think as
• 41:11
  Speaker 11: part of of these big games, also the referees, they
• 41:16
  Speaker 11: made the games legendary, you know what I mean, because
• 41:20
  Speaker 11: of because of bad justments from from the from the
• 41:25
  Speaker 11: from the judges. I mean, I know we can we
• 41:31
  Speaker 11: can lose a game and and and and because of
• 41:36
  Speaker 11: a bad referee, but we can also win a game
• 41:38
  Speaker 11: because of a bad referee, and and and and those
• 41:41
  Speaker 11: games where where the referees they they they do bad work.
• 41:46
  Speaker 11: I mean, they become kind of legendary. And that's part
• 41:50
  Speaker 11: of the game. And it's part of because even even
• 41:53
  Speaker 11: though we we look through the place again and they
• 41:57
  Speaker 11: still get the wrong call.
• 42:00
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, you're right, it happens.
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, well thanks cause thanks thanks for the call there.
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: Thanks for the support too. I always appreciate you guys
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: from UH or from you know that are out of
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: the country, and I know it's a lot more difficult,
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: but thank you for the call. I think I think
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: what you're saying is the review he does doesn't really
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: thanks the review slowing the game down. And sometimes they
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: have bad calls, sometimes they have good calls. I think
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: more often than not, though people would want the review.
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: They wanted to be right you you you know, I
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: hear it in the press box like that that was
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: a catch. They called it a catch. And then you
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: look at it and like, well, his feet weren't in bounds.
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: And even if you wanted it to be a catch,
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: you look at it and you're like, wow, he didn't.
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: You know, that's that's the way it is. I think
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: for the most part, people just want it to be right.
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: They're doing some things in other ways to try to
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: speed up the game. And another thing that they're doing
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: in the in the NFL is doing this, which is
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: as long as everyone knows that it's happening, it doesn't
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: get it's frustrated. But the NFL, they got people that
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: are watching the game in New York. They're they're looking
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: at this stuff before it even goes through a review.
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: How many times have you seen that where they they
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: call it a catch on the field, but it wasn't
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: a catch, and before you even throw the flag, they
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: get together and suddenly just decide that, you know what
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: it was in a catch. That's because that's why they
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: have ear pieces in that's because people are talking to
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: them and so then you don't have to throw a flag,
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: you don't have to challenge something that you should have
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: seen anyway. So they're already kind of doing that, And
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: I don't have a problem with the review. I think
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: for the most part they get it right. There's only
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: forty seven camera angles in each game, and out of
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: those they usually they get it right. So I don't
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: think it's slowing the game down too bad, and most people,
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: to me, want to get it right. All right, let's
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: go to probably our last caller here, Nick and Austin.
• 43:46
  Speaker 6: Nick, what's up?
• 43:49
  Speaker 11: Made it?
• 43:49
  Speaker 6: You made it?
• 43:51
  Speaker 20: Yeah? Pretty much? But yeah it's gonna tax But I
• 43:56
  Speaker 20: was like, well, I'll call it, but I want to
• 43:59
  Speaker 20: give a shout out your mouth midical birthday after birthday.
• 44:05
  Speaker 20: I won't say the name or are, but I was
• 44:12
  Speaker 20: just curious if you thought that we should sit some
• 44:15
  Speaker 20: of these injured guys, you know, just you know, even
• 44:19
  Speaker 20: if it's just another week, because I think we did.
• 44:23
  Speaker 20: I mean, they got away from the run like everybody's
• 44:25
  Speaker 20: been saying, but we started to you know, figure out
• 44:29
  Speaker 20: what they're doing and started to just show it up,
• 44:31
  Speaker 20: you know, later in the game, and you know, another
• 44:36
  Speaker 20: week could make it go a long way, you know,
• 44:38
  Speaker 20: to this. Yeah, so they don't re injured or make
• 44:41
  Speaker 20: it worse. And then I just want to say my
• 44:44
  Speaker 20: predition is going to be twenty eight ten because I
• 44:49
  Speaker 20: think our defensives are both really good. So I'm gonna
• 44:53
  Speaker 20: just say a wash on that, and then I think
• 44:57
  Speaker 20: our offenses much better with that and he versus.
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: All right, all right, well, I appreciate it, Thank you
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: so much.
• 45:10
  Speaker 6: Nick.
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: You're the last caller of the day, last color of
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: the week. I think the injured guys will come down
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: to are they healthy? Are they healthy? Are they ready
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: to play? And like you said, can they hurt themselves
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: even more?
• 45:20
  Speaker 5: Uh?
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: You know that's the situation. I think that that's going
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: to be the case with Tyler Smith. I think, you know,
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: when you're dealing with the hamstring injury, he probably could play.
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: But if he gets three injured there, now you're looking
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: at maybe four to six weeks injuries there. So I
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: think I think that's probably going to be the deciding factor.
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: Some of the other guys might be closer to playing.
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: I think we could see that all right, a lot
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: of scores coming in. I'll throw mine out there. I
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: think the Cowboys win this game twenty four to thirteen.
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: And we do have a question that everyone will be
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: asking throughout the show here on the pods on for
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: pod picks, first touchdown catch of the year. We don't
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: we don't have that yet. We don't have a touchdown catch.
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: Who catches the first one? I'm gonna go with Cavante Turpin.
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: I think he will catch the first touchdown of the season.
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: Maybe something there around the goal line. All right for
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: Chris Beam, I'm Nick Eatman. It's been a fun week
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: for you guys, calling in texting him. You guys were great.
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: Let's see what happens on this game on Sunday and
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: we'll talk about it. Chat about it on Monday on
• 46:19
