Speaker 1: The following.
0:11
Speaker 2: He is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and
0:13
Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. Cowboys This is Cowboys storyline
0:23
Speaker 2: presented by Gillette, the official shave of the Dallas Cowboys.
0:27
Speaker 1: Here's Nick Eatman. What's up?
0:33
Speaker 3: Welcome to Cowboys storyline presented by Gillette. It's one of
0:39
Speaker 3: those short weeks, quick turnaround. Cowboys with a huge win
0:43
Speaker 3: against the Eagles twenty four to twenty one last Sunday,
0:47
Speaker 3: can't celebrate too long because Patrick Mahomes come to town for
0:51
Speaker 3: Thursday's Thanksgiving Day game.
0:53
Speaker 1: They get a win as well.
0:55
Speaker 3: They're just a half game better than the Cowboys, but
0:59
Speaker 3: they have been to a Super Bowl or three the
1:02
Speaker 3: last few years, and you just kind of get the
1:04
Speaker 3: sense that they're gonna get it turned around. And maybe
1:07
Speaker 3: the Cowboys are turning things around as well. They've won
1:11
Speaker 3: two straight games and they're five to five and one.
1:14
Speaker 3: See if they can get over five hundred for the
1:16
Speaker 3: first time this year with the win. Sure would be
1:18
Speaker 3: a lot of fun. Let's talk about it all right.
1:20
Speaker 3: Eight five, five, two two nine seven is the number
1:23
Speaker 3: to call. Irene in Falls Church, Virginia is first. She's
1:26
Speaker 3: a captain of the show. She starts us off.
1:30
Speaker 4: Hello, good morning mob, in honor Thanksgiving. I love people
1:34
Speaker 4: answer this question. Who are you more thankful for? GP
1:38
Speaker 4: three or Q dubs?
1:40
Speaker 5: For me?
1:41
Speaker 4: Right now, it's GP three for entertainment value in the
1:44
Speaker 4: larger sample size. But if we make this playoff push, Oh,
1:47
Speaker 4: huge testament for Quinn Williams. All right, that's it for me.
1:49
Speaker 4: Happy Thanksgiving to you, Chris and all the storyline family.
1:53
Speaker 3: Oh awesome, what a great call, What a great way
1:55
Speaker 3: to start us off here, Irene.
1:58
Speaker 1: Yeah, we've got kids. Now.
2:01
Speaker 3: You know, when you have kids, you don't pick your favorites, right,
2:06
Speaker 3: I have favorites, but you don't.
2:07
Speaker 1: You don't say them. Who am I most thankful for?
2:14
Speaker 6: You know?
2:14
Speaker 3: I think I think I'm thankful that George Pickens has
2:19
Speaker 3: been here all year to help keep this thing afloat
2:23
Speaker 3: and help them win some games even without CD. I
2:26
Speaker 3: had to be there by himself. So I'm thankful for
2:29
Speaker 3: him getting there, And I'm also thankful for Quinn Williams
2:32
Speaker 3: to kind of get here and now get this defense
2:35
Speaker 3: to the point where they could go win the game.
2:36
Speaker 3: The defense won the game, I mean defense won won
2:39
Speaker 3: the football game against the Eagles. And we just wouldn't
2:43
Speaker 3: expect that to be said, but it happened. And you know,
2:48
Speaker 3: they they did a great job of getting those necessary stops,
2:52
Speaker 3: eight in a row, to be exact. And you know,
2:55
Speaker 3: when you when you really look at how the game
2:58
Speaker 3: went down, I mean even the first three drives, I
3:02
Speaker 3: mean the Eagles got the ball twice at the fifty
3:05
Speaker 3: or inside the fifty, and then the second touchdown drive
3:08
Speaker 3: they got gifted two first downs based off of penalties
3:11
Speaker 3: when the Cowboys looked like they had gotten stops and
3:13
Speaker 3: gotten off the field. So really, when you break it down,
3:16
Speaker 3: the Cowboys outplayed the Eagles. It took a while to
3:19
Speaker 3: get there, but once they settled down and played football,
3:22
Speaker 3: they were better than the Eagles were for that day.
3:24
Speaker 3: All right, let's go to Gary in New Mexico. Gary,
3:27
Speaker 3: what's up hey?
3:29
Speaker 7: Happy Thanksgiving week? Nick?
3:31
Speaker 1: All right, how are you?
3:32
Speaker 7: I'm doing good it man?
3:33
Speaker 5: Hey?
3:34
Speaker 7: Real quick? Name the other two times the Cowboys came
3:36
Speaker 7: back from twenty one down to win the game.
3:39
Speaker 3: The other three times times, yeah, yeah. They beat the
3:44
Speaker 3: Saints in eighty four, they beat Washington in ninety nine,
3:49
Speaker 3: and then they beat the Rams in two thousand or
3:52
Speaker 3: in twenty fourteen.
3:55
Speaker 7: Okay, yeah, you're right, I forgot about the RAM game. Okay,
3:57
Speaker 7: cool deal. See hey, y'all miss one. Y'all missed one
4:00
Speaker 7: last week on your trivia on the website.
4:03
Speaker 8: Y'all got one wrong.
4:04
Speaker 7: Mike Quick caught that touchdown my Harold Carmichael.
4:07
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know what you know?
4:09
Speaker 1: All right?
4:09
Speaker 3: You know what's funny about this, Gary, is I had
4:13
Speaker 3: it wrong.
4:14
Speaker 1: I had it wrong.
4:15
Speaker 3: I had Harold Carmichael and and.
4:20
Speaker 5: You got that program.
4:21
Speaker 1: No, no, but go ahead, go ahead, Gary.
4:24
Speaker 7: Let's talk about this week's team this week, Man, Sunday's
4:27
Speaker 7: win was different. That was a different win. That was
4:32
Speaker 7: a signature win. That is a building block win. They
4:35
Speaker 7: can build off that win, Man, And you're absolutely right.
4:38
Speaker 7: The defense won that game. But for the Cowboys to
4:41
Speaker 7: overcome what they they had to beat two teams on Sunday.
4:44
Speaker 7: They had to beat themselves in Philadelphia because they were
4:47
Speaker 7: fighting against themselves the entire first half and the mental
4:50
Speaker 7: toughness that they displayed and pulling.
4:52
Speaker 9: Out that game.
4:53
Speaker 7: Man, they can build off of that. And I am
4:56
Speaker 7: excited about this team. Let's just be patient. Let that
4:59
Speaker 7: defense cook. That defense is so much better with these
5:02
Speaker 7: new players. Let's see what we can do against Kansas City.
5:05
Speaker 7: Re signed George Pickens, get him signed right now. Pickens
5:09
Speaker 7: is your best receiver. I love Cdee Lamb, but right now,
5:11
Speaker 7: in this moment, Pickens is your number one. And I
5:14
Speaker 7: hope cd gets back on track because I mean this
5:17
Speaker 7: this team is fun to watch. And that was that
5:20
Speaker 7: game Sunday, Nick, that was the funnest game I've watched.
5:23
Speaker 7: That was old school NFC east Man. It just did
5:26
Speaker 7: my heart good to watch that football game. But yeah,
5:28
Speaker 7: I'll hang up and listen to your comments. Let's go
5:30
Speaker 7: beat Kansas City on Thursday.
5:32
Speaker 1: All right, it sounds good. I like it.
5:34
Speaker 3: Signature when for sure and Gary always throws trivia questions
5:40
Speaker 3: in there. And I had it wrong.
5:42
Speaker 1: You're right.
5:43
Speaker 3: And here's when I realized it. It wasn't just now
5:46
Speaker 3: when you said it. I was actually walking in the
5:50
Speaker 3: from one press box to another over to the radio side,
5:53
Speaker 3: and the Eagles play, uh, the Eagles play by playing
5:57
Speaker 3: and then their color guy is Mike Quick, and I've
6:00
Speaker 3: seen him for years because he's he does the games,
6:03
Speaker 3: and he's walking past me and I'm like, oh, that's
6:04
Speaker 3: Mike Quick.
6:05
Speaker 1: And right then and there it hit me.
6:07
Speaker 3: Wait a second, I think it was Mike Quick that
6:09
Speaker 3: scored that touchdown. It's not gonna be Herold Carmichael in
6:12
Speaker 3: his thirteenth year getting past the coup. It was Mike Quick,
6:16
Speaker 3: And I was like, dang, I think we got that wrong.
6:18
Speaker 3: And I didn't think about it again until you just
6:20
Speaker 3: said it.
6:20
Speaker 1: But you're right.
6:22
Speaker 3: Gotta be gotta be gotta do a little double checking
6:24
Speaker 3: on that one. All right, let's go Lewis at Langston, Oklahoma. Lewis,
6:28
Speaker 3: what's up?
6:29
Speaker 10: What's going on? I just want to say thanksgiving everybody.
6:32
Speaker 10: I might not get in later on. Secondly, I was
6:36
Speaker 10: I want to celebrate the win, but I kind of
6:39
Speaker 10: was a little frustrated with shotty play calling. And it
6:42
Speaker 10: kind of frustrated because you get inside the ten yard
6:45
Speaker 10: line and I know Geydon got that flag football start,
6:48
Speaker 10: but he does this thing where he gets inside the
6:51
Speaker 10: tiny he starts trying to throw the ball. You have
6:53
Speaker 10: a two hundred and twenty pounds running back, like let
6:56
Speaker 10: him four. Don't get me wrong, I know Dak Kreshcot
6:59
Speaker 10: can throw the ball, but like, let the man get
7:01
Speaker 10: in the end zone. He worked us all the way
7:03
Speaker 10: down there and then that fourth and three was kind
7:06
Speaker 10: of dropping me crazy. At the beginning of the game.
7:08
Speaker 10: I'm like, I know, you want momentum, and I don't
7:10
Speaker 10: know if you know, if the trustal defense or not,
7:12
Speaker 10: you want to try to take the momentum away. But like,
7:15
Speaker 10: I mean, he says it all times. You don't win
7:17
Speaker 10: the game in the first quarter, you don't win the
7:19
Speaker 10: game in the second quarter and the third quarter, you
7:20
Speaker 10: win in the fourth. But like, so punch the ball
7:23
Speaker 10: and let us go, you know, like he hasn't challenged
7:26
Speaker 10: the play, He hasn't challenged anything this year, So I'm like,
7:30
Speaker 10: nothing against my I love it, but like sometimes, hey,
7:32
Speaker 10: just throw the flag. I mean, the best you could
7:35
Speaker 10: do is like you say, I mean, if you lose
7:37
Speaker 10: it in the first quarter, we got to take a
7:39
Speaker 10: half to figure it out, but throw the flag. So
7:41
Speaker 10: that was my only gripe I had at the game,
7:44
Speaker 10: outside of being down from the one zero. I enjoyed
7:46
Speaker 10: the entire game from beginning to end. But I'm gonna,
7:50
Speaker 10: you know, I'm gonna get off and I'll let everybody
7:52
Speaker 10: else you know. But I had to get that off
7:54
Speaker 10: my chest for a little bit.
7:55
Speaker 3: So I talked to y'all later, all right, well, I
7:59
Speaker 3: agree with you, I really do. I thought that's a
8:01
Speaker 3: great point you just said. He said it in his
8:04
Speaker 3: post game. You don't win it in the first, you
8:05
Speaker 3: don't win the second. You don't lose it either. So
8:08
Speaker 3: so it's, you know, play smart, play smart football. He's
8:13
Speaker 3: got it. He's got to balance that better. He's got
8:16
Speaker 3: to balance that. You can't put your whole football team
8:20
Speaker 3: in a bad way because you're the offensive coordinator and
8:23
Speaker 3: you watch these guys practice all week and you know
8:26
Speaker 3: they can get this fourth and three and it's not
8:29
Speaker 3: the smart football play. It wasn't at the time, and
8:33
Speaker 3: so you know, there's a lot of things people do
8:37
Speaker 3: like that he as a coordinator, And it's I saw
8:40
Speaker 3: it in a game in the Monday night game when
8:42
Speaker 3: when Carolina there was a penalty on the extra point,
8:45
Speaker 3: so they took the point off the board because the
8:47
Speaker 3: ball was getting moved from the two to the one.
8:49
Speaker 3: So let's put the now, let's go out there and
8:51
Speaker 3: go to a two point conversion. But then they throw
8:53
Speaker 3: the ball. I mean, what's the point of going from
8:56
Speaker 3: the two to the one If you're gonna throw it that,
8:58
Speaker 3: you're not really getting helping you you're gonna run it
9:01
Speaker 3: and push push in.
9:03
Speaker 1: I get it.
9:03
Speaker 3: But if you're going from the two to one so
9:05
Speaker 3: you could throw it that, it makes no sense to me.
9:07
Speaker 3: All right, let's go to a break real quick on

10:54
Speaker 3: All right, welcome back to Cowboys storyline. I got a
10:57
Speaker 3: big week. I love Thanksgiving Week. I say it all
11:00
Speaker 3: the time. I know I've never I haven't had Thanksgiving,
11:03
Speaker 3: you know, dinner with my family on Thanksgiving and I
11:07
Speaker 3: don't know, almost thirty years, but uh, you know, we
11:11
Speaker 3: make up for it. I mean we figure out, you know,
11:13
Speaker 3: Thanksgiving is kind of when you can get together and
11:17
Speaker 3: but I don't know what it is. It's it's my
11:19
Speaker 3: favorite holiday for sure. To to be able to to be.
11:23
Speaker 1: At the game. I mean, it's a it's a tradition.
11:25
Speaker 3: I mean we all we all remember as kids, you know,
11:28
Speaker 3: wherever you'd go eat, get your meals, and and and
11:32
Speaker 3: and you know what, watched the game, but you were
11:34
Speaker 3: watching the Cowboys or the Lions, maybe ever early but
11:37
Speaker 3: then the Cowboys. It's just such a tradition now to
11:40
Speaker 3: be a part of it. Yeah, you don't get to
11:42
Speaker 3: be with your family but during Thanksgiving Day.
11:45
Speaker 1: But but it's a great excuse.
11:47
Speaker 3: When when I've learned that you know where where's Nick, Well,
11:52
Speaker 3: he's at the game, the game that we're watching. So
11:54
Speaker 3: it always works out, all right, Sergeant Sue is on
11:56
Speaker 3: the lines, he's from Fort Worth.
11:58
Speaker 15: What's up at everybody?
12:00
Speaker 5: How you doing? Nick?
12:02
Speaker 16: Man?
12:02
Speaker 17: Dude, I'm still on a high from that game. Man.
12:05
Speaker 17: The defense played lights out and what I'm hoping that
12:08
Speaker 17: change is now. And I think it's kind of like
12:10
Speaker 17: your last call maybe was touching on it. I didn't
12:11
Speaker 17: get to hear it all, but I'm hoping that is
12:13
Speaker 17: changing now. Is shoddy in the offense knows what the
12:18
Speaker 17: defense can bring, So maybe that means they'll press a
12:20
Speaker 17: little bit less. You don't have to go forward on
12:22
Speaker 17: fourth down. You don't have to you know, you know,
12:24
Speaker 17: go forward at midfield, you know, to try to make
12:26
Speaker 17: a statement. You know what your defense can do.
12:28
Speaker 9: Now, you know what I mean.
12:29
Speaker 17: And maybe it's a small sample size, but it's a
12:31
Speaker 17: sample size that I enjoyed, is tasting. So that's what
12:34
Speaker 17: I'm hoping going forward, especially under the leadership of Quinn
12:36
Speaker 17: Williams coming in and being that vocal leader, being that
12:39
Speaker 17: guy that's rallying the troops on defense. I don't feel
12:41
Speaker 17: like we haven't had a guy like that in a
12:43
Speaker 17: long time because quite frankly, I hate to bring his
12:45
Speaker 17: name up, but Micah in that situation, I feel like
12:48
Speaker 17: he would have started pouting and started just worrying about
12:50
Speaker 17: his own stats. We don't got that guy no more.
12:52
Speaker 17: We got a like, like Daveon said, we got a dude.
12:55
Speaker 17: Also the YouTube chat, I just want to shout out Alan,
12:58
Speaker 17: he wanted me to ask you Nick, which I'm sure're
12:59
Speaker 17: gonna give it the into the show. What your prediction
13:02
Speaker 17: is for the game. Appreciate you, Nick, and have a
13:03
Speaker 17: happy things getting all right?
13:04
Speaker 1: Thank you. I'm not ready for a prediction yet. We'll see.
13:10
Speaker 1: I don't know, I haven't even thought about that one yet, but.
13:14
Speaker 3: I do get the sense just like AJ Brown, you know,
13:18
Speaker 3: I was just like I've seen it all year long,
13:20
Speaker 3: all this mess with AJ Brown, and I'm like, oh, watch,
13:22
Speaker 3: you know, he'll he'll he'll play the Cowboys, He'll get
13:24
Speaker 3: it turned around.
13:25
Speaker 1: And he did.
13:26
Speaker 3: Just like that's the way I feel about the Chiefs.
13:28
Speaker 3: You know, I feel like they're going to get it
13:30
Speaker 3: turned around, and they they sort of are. You know,
13:35
Speaker 3: when the balls in Mahomes' hands, you know you expect
13:40
Speaker 3: he's gonna go make a play. You know, we were
13:44
Speaker 3: talking about the question you just said about sergeant who
13:47
Speaker 3: you were talking about hope hoping that Schottenheimer kind of
13:50
Speaker 3: trust the defense even more. And there's two ways to that,
13:55
Speaker 3: because you can also say, well, I do trust the defense.
13:58
Speaker 3: That's why if we don't get it, I trust the defense.
14:01
Speaker 3: You know, you could make that argument. When the ball
14:04
Speaker 3: was at the one yard line, fourth and one with
14:06
Speaker 3: three minutes to go, I didn't really hate going for it,
14:10
Speaker 3: but I would have run it.
14:11
Speaker 1: I would have run it because.
14:12
Speaker 3: I the last thing you need if you don't get it,
14:14
Speaker 3: last thing you need is an interception in the end zone,
14:16
Speaker 3: which we've already seen in that game, and then it's
14:18
Speaker 3: a touch bag.
14:20
Speaker 1: So did it not work? I don't know.
14:23
Speaker 3: You can say that it worked because even though you
14:26
Speaker 3: didn't get to think about it, if you kick the
14:27
Speaker 3: field goal, okay, three minutes to go, you kick the
14:29
Speaker 3: field goal, you kick off, Eagles gonna get the ball
14:31
Speaker 3: about the thirty yard line, maybe thirty five, depending on where.
14:34
Speaker 1: The kickoff is.
14:35
Speaker 3: They're gonna go get a field goal. They're probably gonna
14:37
Speaker 3: go get a field goal. They're probably if maybe a touchdown,
14:40
Speaker 3: you know, like that's that's the thing.
14:43
Speaker 5: Is that.
14:43
Speaker 3: Yeah, you can say, well they well you know, hadn't
14:45
Speaker 3: stopped them. But it's a difficult you know, you get
14:48
Speaker 3: in that two minute mode, you have good field position,
14:51
Speaker 3: the Eagles can kind of play a little bit downhill
14:54
Speaker 3: and they can go and I would imagine they'd get
14:57
Speaker 3: in a position to go to go score. So by
15:01
Speaker 3: not getting it, now they're down there, back there at
15:04
Speaker 3: their own one yard line.
15:05
Speaker 1: Now they got out of it.
15:06
Speaker 3: A little bit, but ultimately they had to punt, and
15:09
Speaker 3: when they did, the Colwis had just enough time. So
15:11
Speaker 3: I think it's still I think going for it. What's
15:14
Speaker 3: the right call. I don't know if passing it when
15:18
Speaker 3: you're running back is running the way that he is.
15:20
Speaker 1: All right, let's go. Ronnie is next. Hey Nick, Good
15:25
Speaker 1: morning Ronnie in Union City.
15:26
Speaker 6: New Jersey. Hey, how you doing. Nick? Good morning Nick again.
15:33
Speaker 6: Just in case, Happy holidays to everybody, have a happy Thanksgiving.
15:37
Speaker 6: Answering Irene's question real quick, I'm thankful for Jerry Jones,
15:42
Speaker 6: Jerry Jones and the Jones family. First of all, he's
15:46
Speaker 6: like the coolest owner. There's people that don't like. I
15:49
Speaker 6: love Jerry Jones. I love every crazy stuff he comes
15:52
Speaker 6: out with. Sometimes he's one of the funniest guys out there.
15:56
Speaker 6: So yeah, I love Jerry Jones. And he allows you
15:58
Speaker 6: guys to do what you do and let us make
16:01
Speaker 6: the calls that we're making right now. So I love
16:03
Speaker 6: Jerry Jones. I'm thankful for him and finally opening his
16:08
Speaker 6: eyes and let him see that we needed a big
16:10
Speaker 6: three technique and a nice defensive line in the middle.
16:14
Speaker 6: Stuff in that middle. So yeah, I'm thankful for all
16:17
Speaker 6: of that. Kansas City's not who they once were. They're
16:21
Speaker 6: still a little scary because they got my homes. But
16:23
Speaker 6: I think we're going to win this one thirty one
16:26
Speaker 6: twenty eight, Nick, all right, thirty one twenty eight, thanks
16:29
Speaker 6: for taking my call. How a good one?
16:32
Speaker 3: Thirty one twenty eight. You know, usually I talked about
16:34
Speaker 3: this last week or earlier this week. When I get
16:37
Speaker 3: some get calls and scores that come in, I immediately
16:42
Speaker 3: try to think of a game that happened with that score.
16:45
Speaker 3: And so you say thirty one twenty eight. I think
16:47
Speaker 3: that was the score of the game that they beat
16:50
Speaker 3: the Chiefs. Was it twenty years ago in two thousand
16:55
Speaker 3: and five? I think they played them in two thousand
16:57
Speaker 3: and five at home. I think they won thirty one
17:00
Speaker 3: twenty eight. It was something like that. Dan Campbell scored
17:02
Speaker 3: a touchdown in that game. So I know they played
17:06
Speaker 3: them in ninety five on Thanksgiving, and they played them
17:08
Speaker 3: in two thousand and five at home at Texas Stadium.
17:12
Speaker 3: So now here they are twenty twenty five playing for Thanksgiving.
17:17
Speaker 3: All Right, I'm a in Napa, California's next I may.
17:22
Speaker 9: Hey, hey, Nick, How's it going, man, good, you feel
17:25
Speaker 9: like I'm great. I feel like a kid in a
17:28
Speaker 9: candy store every time I get through, man, just because
17:30
Speaker 9: it's like you can never know how many times it's
17:33
Speaker 9: going to take or if it's going to get through
17:35
Speaker 9: or not, and so it's like it's ringing. He answered,
17:38
Speaker 9: all right, yeah, so yeah, it's great, great to talk
17:42
Speaker 9: to you. Awesome, man. I haven't had a chance to
17:45
Speaker 9: listen this morning because I was obviously trying to get
17:47
Speaker 9: in on my phone and stuff, so I'll know what
17:50
Speaker 9: you guys been covering. But I wanted to kind.
17:53
Speaker 15: Of go back really quick.
17:54
Speaker 9: I had a quick question about the Eagles game, and
17:56
Speaker 9: then I wanted to just put in my input about
17:58
Speaker 9: the Chiefs. My question for the Eagles. Number sixty five
18:03
Speaker 9: on the offensive line for the Eagles, didn't it feel
18:07
Speaker 9: like in the first quarter he wasn't getting set at
18:09
Speaker 9: all and they weren't calling anything on him, Like he
18:13
Speaker 9: stood up and he would look back at the at
18:15
Speaker 9: the quarterback and then he just he never seemed like
18:18
Speaker 9: he got set and they he would just turn around
18:21
Speaker 9: and they would hike the ball, and it was like
18:23
Speaker 9: I didn't understand that. I don't know if anybody else
18:25
Speaker 9: bought that up or well they call.
18:27
Speaker 3: They called it once, but it might not have been
18:29
Speaker 3: on him. They called it with another guy that popped up.
18:32
Speaker 3: But you're right, when when a wide receiver like goes
18:36
Speaker 3: in motion or the wide receiver is shifting, he's gotta
18:40
Speaker 3: he's got to get set, he's got to get established.
18:43
Speaker 1: And you're right, I don't think that the guard does that.
18:46
Speaker 1: I think that he.
18:49
Speaker 3: Isn't it weird where like if you were in your
18:51
Speaker 3: stance and you just do a one little flinch, that's
18:54
Speaker 3: a penalty. But if you stand up and point and
18:58
Speaker 3: then and then go like that and then all of
19:00
Speaker 3: a sudden get back down, like that's okay, Like you
19:02
Speaker 3: can do that, but you can't like just like blink.
19:05
Speaker 1: Too much because that would be a penalty.
19:07
Speaker 3: But if you're standing up and pointing and saying hi,
19:10
Speaker 3: you know all that, it's crazy And it's crazy that
19:13
Speaker 3: the Cowboys couldn't time that little bit better, you know,
19:16
Speaker 3: because once he goes down, it's they're hiking it. But yeah,
19:20
Speaker 3: the Eagles always seem to do it like they it
19:23
Speaker 3: always seems to be a penalty and whatever they're doing.
19:26
Speaker 9: But yeah, I completely agree. I was thinking, man, just
19:30
Speaker 9: just blit somebody up his hole or something like that.
19:33
Speaker 9: After after a minute of like, man, get them somehow
19:36
Speaker 9: get him to stop if they're not going to call it.
19:38
Speaker 9: But it is what it is. It came out on
19:40
Speaker 9: top man, just really quick. Again. I've I've already talked
19:45
Speaker 9: about how much I love winning Williams trade, and you know,
19:48
Speaker 9: obviously we've seen in two games. You know how big
19:51
Speaker 9: of a difference it is. It's just amazing that we
19:53
Speaker 9: were able to make seven eight stops in a row. Yeah,
19:59
Speaker 9: it was great. But my point is is, do you
20:02
Speaker 9: feel like Shoty has to maybe change his mindset. We're
20:05
Speaker 9: like before he was changing his mindset towards the defense
20:09
Speaker 9: not being able to make stops, and so he's going
20:11
Speaker 9: for it, going for it. And I think we've seen
20:14
Speaker 9: some of that in the beginning of the game, like
20:16
Speaker 9: or throughout the game, of him going for it and
20:19
Speaker 9: not trusting on his defense. And I feel it feels
20:21
Speaker 9: like now it's like we have a defense you can trust,
20:25
Speaker 9: let's play more of both sides of the ball, and
20:28
Speaker 9: you know, complimentary football type thing. But I'd like to
20:31
Speaker 9: hear what you have to say about that. Man, if
20:33
Speaker 9: I don't get in, you know, because it's tough man.
20:37
Speaker 9: Go Cowboys. I think we got it. Low scoring game
20:40
Speaker 9: this time twenty seven twenty one, something like that, right,
20:46
Speaker 9: twenty three twenty one. Anyways, kept going, Nick, I love you.
20:49
Speaker 8: Thanks all right, thanks for the call.
20:52
Speaker 1: Appreciate that. All right.
20:54
Speaker 3: We've we did touch on that a little bit about
20:56
Speaker 3: Schottenheimer already, you know, maybe needing to change as far
21:00
Speaker 3: as that mindset a little bit, playing a little bit
21:02
Speaker 3: more complimentary football. Let's go to break real quick on

22:39
Speaker 5: How are we doing, sir?
22:40
Speaker 1: How are you doing?
22:42
Speaker 20: I'm doing good man. I went back and watched that game. Normally,
22:45
Speaker 20: when I would go back and watch a game, I
22:47
Speaker 20: watched a condensed version on like the NFL APP. I
22:49
Speaker 20: have to watch the whole game game that game the
22:52
Speaker 20: Cowboys versus the Eagles.
22:53
Speaker 1: No, no, you watched the whole game.
22:56
Speaker 8: Yeah, Brady version all that.
23:00
Speaker 20: It was literally crazier than my bipolar ex girlfriend, and
23:03
Speaker 20: I loved every minute of it, just like I loved her.
23:06
Speaker 20: I think what's going on with the Kansas City Chiefs though, However,
23:10
Speaker 20: since we're moving on to the next game, they've become
23:13
Speaker 20: like the team of the nineties to late nineties of
23:14
Speaker 20: the Cowboys. They started to show their age. You know,
23:17
Speaker 20: Kelsey's not doing as much as they used to do,
23:19
Speaker 20: so they're kind of at that transitional period where their
23:23
Speaker 20: drafts aren't necessarily hitting as hard as they used to.
23:25
Speaker 20: They don't have as much speed, and I think we
23:27
Speaker 20: could take advantage of that. I've been watching their defense,
23:29
Speaker 20: very solid defense, but they're successible to tight end. So
23:32
Speaker 20: this is going to be a big game for spam
23:35
Speaker 20: Ford and of course our boy Ferguson. I'm kind of
23:38
Speaker 20: out on Schoolmaker this year. He's really disappointed in a
23:41
Speaker 20: lot of it's not just blocking, but his catching. He
23:43
Speaker 20: hasn't really made any plays that make me think that
23:45
Speaker 20: he's going to be the tight end.
23:46
Speaker 9: To do the job.
23:47
Speaker 20: So we can hit them with the tight ends and
23:48
Speaker 20: then of course when it comes to like CDMGP, you're
23:51
Speaker 20: going to need both of them. CD haves to realize
23:54
Speaker 20: that he's not George Pickens, and George Pickens is not CD.
23:56
Speaker 15: CD.
23:57
Speaker 20: He's a technician, and George Pickens is a type of
24:00
Speaker 20: superstar receiver that we normally see in the number eighty eight.
24:02
Speaker 20: So I don't believe in switching on that guy because
24:04
Speaker 20: in the long run, a guy like CD is going
24:07
Speaker 20: to have a much longer career in this league because
24:09
Speaker 20: once George Pickens's body starts to break down a lot
24:11
Speaker 20: like that did, you're gonna need those technical skills. We'll
24:14
Speaker 20: see if he has. I mean you have, Ay, I'll
24:15
Speaker 20: hang up and listen.
24:16
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's a really good point because you're at
24:19
Speaker 3: that stage in your career where you can kind of
24:22
Speaker 3: out athlete people. But the difference is I'm gonna say
24:27
Speaker 3: this about about George Pickens. He's a pretty good route runner,
24:32
Speaker 3: you know, like he is. He's very crisp in the
24:35
Speaker 3: in running those routes. He runs a slant as good
24:39
Speaker 3: as anyway. Now, I know that's a basic route, but
24:41
Speaker 3: not everybody runs it perfectly. He does a really good
24:46
Speaker 3: job of kind of finding, you know, the holes in
24:49
Speaker 3: the in the coverage.
24:50
Speaker 1: So he does.
24:51
Speaker 3: He he is, He's not just freelancing out there. I
24:56
Speaker 3: don't think he's. But but you're right, they both they're
25:00
Speaker 3: gonna have their games. There's gonna be a game where
25:02
Speaker 3: Pickens has two catches for for twenty yards and maybe
25:05
Speaker 3: five or six targets or whatever. It just didn't work
25:08
Speaker 3: out that way, But you hope on the other side
25:10
Speaker 3: that's where CD goes to work, because defensive coordinators are
25:16
Speaker 3: not just gonna sit there and go, all right, just
25:18
Speaker 3: just let him throw up to Pickens. I mean, you're
25:20
Speaker 3: not gonna do that. He's so good with the ball
25:23
Speaker 3: that that you're gonna you're gonna have to to roll
25:26
Speaker 3: some more coverage that way. It's exactly what CD wants
25:29
Speaker 3: and what he needs. So it's it's a good problem
25:33
Speaker 3: to have, you know, but you hope that they both
25:37
Speaker 3: kind of handle it the right way.
25:39
Speaker 15: You know.
25:39
Speaker 3: First game of the year, I'm you know, in Philly,
25:42
Speaker 3: of uh, CD dropped those passes, but Pickens didn't really
25:46
Speaker 3: have a huge game. I think he had three catches
25:48
Speaker 3: for thirty yards or something like that. All right, I
25:51
Speaker 3: do want to say, I'm a in in NAPO, and
25:55
Speaker 3: he was calling. He called the previous call. You kind
25:58
Speaker 3: of said the same thing as maybe what Sergeant Seoue
26:02
Speaker 3: had said earlier, just about you know the defense is
26:05
Speaker 3: coming along now you don't necessarily And Lewis from Langston
26:09
Speaker 3: said it too, You don't have to to go for
26:12
Speaker 3: every every pass. You know, you don't have to go.
26:14
Speaker 3: If we can kick some field goals, you could punt
26:15
Speaker 3: if you need to. Just remember this. The Cowboys have
26:18
Speaker 3: scored forty points against the Giants, forty points against Green Bay,
26:21
Speaker 3: thirty eight points, I believe against the Jets, forty four
26:25
Speaker 3: points against Washington, thirty four against the Raiders. That if
26:28
Speaker 3: CD that might be where the whole thing started with.
26:31
Speaker 3: Seed dropped that pass at the very end of the
26:33
Speaker 3: game against the Raiders, But if he catches that ball
26:36
Speaker 3: for a touchdown, that's forty one points. It should be
26:39
Speaker 3: forty one points in all of those games, forty forty,
26:41
Speaker 3: thirty eight, forty four, and then could be forty one
26:44
Speaker 3: in every one of those games the Cowboys kick the
26:46
Speaker 3: field goal, if not too so. Kicking field goals does
26:50
Speaker 3: not mean it's going to be You're only going to
26:52
Speaker 3: score fifteen points or so. Kicking field goals means keep
26:55
Speaker 3: it rolling, keep adding those points up. You're going to
26:57
Speaker 3: score touchdowns as well. You can have high number games
27:01
Speaker 3: and still kick field goals. Is the point that I'm making.
27:04
Speaker 1: Matt in La is next, Matt.
27:08
Speaker 8: Good, Early morning, Nick, Happy Thanksgiving from California. I'm gonna
27:13
Speaker 8: be pretty quick right here. I just wanted to ask
27:16
Speaker 8: you two things. The first thing is, I think you
27:23
Speaker 8: mentioned it a couple of times. We weren't really sure
27:25
Speaker 8: if Rico Dado was going to stay with the Cowboys.
27:28
Speaker 8: You had a feeling he wanted to go back to
27:29
Speaker 8: North Carolina.
27:30
Speaker 9: I've heard you say.
27:31
Speaker 8: But when we look right now, why I'm telling you,
27:35
Speaker 8: Malie Davis sorta looks a little bit like Rico Dado,
27:39
Speaker 8: and I don't think we really want to let him
27:41
Speaker 8: walk out of the building after this year. I don't
27:43
Speaker 8: know what his contract status is. I think that that's
27:45
Speaker 8: a point of emphasis. And then the second thing I
27:49
Speaker 8: wanted to ask you is, in all reality, what is
27:53
Speaker 8: the chance that we are able to keep Javonte Williams,
27:59
Speaker 8: any Clark and Fine Pickens. And I'm just listen, I'm
28:04
Speaker 8: gonna give you half predictions the game. I'm going to
28:06
Speaker 8: say Cowboys twenty seven, She's twenty three.
28:09
Speaker 9: Thank you for your time, Nick, all.
28:11
Speaker 1: Right, thank you.
28:13
Speaker 15: Man.
28:15
Speaker 3: You know, re signing all those guys, I wasn't expecting
28:19
Speaker 3: the Melik Davis resigned question or anything. You know, he
28:24
Speaker 3: was on practice squad until this week. I mean they
28:27
Speaker 3: finally put him on the team this week. I you know,
28:32
Speaker 3: I think every I think every team in the league
28:35
Speaker 3: has a Melik.
28:36
Speaker 1: Davis, has a guy like that.
28:39
Speaker 3: But what I like about him is he's it seems
28:45
Speaker 3: like he's he's he's running the ball, he's playing special teams.
28:49
Speaker 1: He's doing it with more of a purpose.
28:51
Speaker 3: When you've been cut three or four times and you
28:53
Speaker 3: elevate it down back to the practice squad and all that,
28:56
Speaker 3: your paycheck's different obviously than than the others. Uh, you're
29:01
Speaker 3: you're you're playing in a different way. Not everyone does that,
29:04
Speaker 3: but it does feel like you're getting the best version
29:07
Speaker 3: of Malik Davis. The Cowboys would love to play Jayden Blue.
29:11
Speaker 3: They would They would love for him to be that
29:13
Speaker 3: guy hey drafted him. They want him to be a contributor.
29:17
Speaker 3: They want to see what kind of speed you know
29:19
Speaker 3: that he can he can showcase, but he's not playing
29:24
Speaker 3: better than Malik Davis. Malik gives him more production, more
29:30
Speaker 3: plays on special teams, probably even better as a runner.
29:35
Speaker 3: This isn't the forty yard dash. This is going out
29:37
Speaker 3: and playing football, and so what it's It's more than
29:40
Speaker 3: just speed. So I credit Malik Davis for being that
29:43
Speaker 3: guy and and and maybe that a lot of fire
29:46
Speaker 3: and Jayden Blue and anyone else on the practice squad
29:49
Speaker 3: to say, hey, that could be me. I'm not saying Malik.
29:54
Speaker 3: I'm not saying Jayden Blue is on the practice squad.
29:56
Speaker 3: I'm saying maybe he can light a fire to him
29:57
Speaker 3: because they're in the same position. And then also anybody
30:00
Speaker 3: else on the practice squad that kind of sees that
30:03
Speaker 3: the journey in the path Belink is making. As for
30:05
Speaker 3: those drafts, as for those guys that you mentioned about
30:08
Speaker 3: re signing, uh, I think Jerry said it on the
30:11
Speaker 3: radio this morning that he doesn't he doesn't see Piketts
30:15
Speaker 3: not playing here next year, that they'll they'll get it
30:17
Speaker 3: done now. He said the same thing about Micah.
30:19
Speaker 1: We know that, but I don't.
30:22
Speaker 3: I just have a hard time thinking that that's not
30:24
Speaker 3: gonna be uh. Something that happens, they'll figure it out.
30:27
Speaker 3: I mean, you always franchise him. You're not gonna love that.
30:31
Speaker 3: He's not gonna love that, but that's that is something
30:33
Speaker 3: that that's on the table.
30:34
Speaker 1: You'll you'll franchise him if you need to.
30:36
Speaker 3: And that what that does is buys you a little
30:38
Speaker 3: time in the off season to maybe work out a
30:41
Speaker 3: deal as well. I think Kenny Clark is under a contract,
30:45
Speaker 3: but still they may have to want to rework some
30:47
Speaker 3: things there. They could rework Quentyn Williams' deal maybe too,
30:52
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. I mean, he's he's a
30:53
Speaker 3: younger guy that that's gonna be here something too. So
30:55
Speaker 3: there's options. Uh, and then Javonte Williams, we'll see, well,
31:02
Speaker 3: you know, we'll see what the money looks like. I mean,
31:04
Speaker 3: think about this. Rico didn't get a lot of money
31:07
Speaker 3: after he going on a thousand yards whatever. He didn't
31:09
Speaker 3: get a ton of money. I don't think Davante is
31:11
Speaker 3: gonna get a big, big deal. I think I think
31:14
Speaker 3: it's a good chance for Javonte to being back. I
31:16
Speaker 3: really I think so. All right, Rick and Webster Massachusetts.
31:20
Speaker 16: Hey, they can't be doing Hey, Rick, happy Thanksgiving to
31:24
Speaker 16: you and your family and Christmas to you too, think
31:28
Speaker 16: and still liners and stuff like that. But I have
31:31
Speaker 16: a couple of questions. One to Irene's question, I would
31:34
Speaker 16: go with QW because he's made this defense better. Without
31:38
Speaker 16: the defense would still be just throwing up points and
31:40
Speaker 16: may be scoring more points. So I'm going with QW.
31:46
Speaker 16: As far as the previous question about you know, the
31:49
Speaker 16: Philadelphia Eagle guy who just kept them looking up, maybe
31:52
Speaker 16: he was a signal caller instead of the center, because
31:54
Speaker 16: I don't know, but that was you know, I would
31:57
Speaker 16: agree with you guys that it looks like you might've
32:00
Speaker 16: been just stop trying to create things. But for that,
32:04
Speaker 16: my score would probably be the Kansas City or it's
32:06
Speaker 16: gonna be the Cowboys twenty eight in Kansas City twenty.
32:10
Speaker 1: Twenty eight twenty yeah, all right, okay, all right, thank you,
32:16
Speaker 1: thanks for the call. Twenty eight to twenty. No game
32:21
Speaker 1: pops up in my head for that score.
32:25
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, if I was understanding you correctly, Rick,
32:29
Speaker 3: what you were, were you saying maybe this that that
32:33
Speaker 3: was the actual place, that was actually the guy that
32:36
Speaker 3: that was gonna that was calling the snap, you know,
32:39
Speaker 3: like by doing that instead of Jalen hurts, Actually, you know,
32:45
Speaker 3: making the sound that you have for the snap that
32:48
Speaker 3: maybe it's it's it's that guy at the line of
32:50
Speaker 3: scrimmage who knows who knows it looks weird. It doesn't
32:55
Speaker 3: look like normal football when you have a guy standing
32:57
Speaker 3: up like that.
32:58
Speaker 1: The guards and centers, again, I don't know understand it.
33:01
Speaker 3: But you know, the the Eagles kind of always seem
33:05
Speaker 3: like they're a couple a couple of seasons ahead of
33:08
Speaker 3: everyone else, and then they'll figure it out. Like I
33:10
Speaker 3: would imagine the touch bush is going to go away
33:12
Speaker 3: this year, especially because now you're seeing all these false
33:16
Speaker 3: starts and it's just almost it's it's hard for them
33:20
Speaker 3: to monitor that and to to officiate it correctly. I
33:25
Speaker 3: don't know what they do as far as you know,
33:27
Speaker 3: pushing guys forward or whatever. I know what I would
33:30
Speaker 3: do is the rule that I would make I was
33:34
Speaker 3: the commissioner. First thing I would do would be eliminate
33:39
Speaker 3: the stiff arm to the face. But the next thing
33:45
Speaker 3: I would do would be take away the touch push.
33:48
Speaker 3: What I would say is is that if you are
33:50
Speaker 3: an eligible receiver, you cannot shove anyone in the back.
33:56
Speaker 3: If you're an eligible receiver. Now if your alignment and
33:59
Speaker 3: the ball seven eight yards down the field, and then
34:01
Speaker 3: they still want to do that, which if they they
34:04
Speaker 3: let people push the pile, that's fine, but you would
34:07
Speaker 3: be alignment doing it. But if you're an eligible receiver,
34:10
Speaker 3: I mean, you can't line up behind the quarterback and
34:13
Speaker 3: you can do that. It doesn't take away the quarterback sneak.
34:17
Speaker 3: You can still do that your center. If your center
34:18
Speaker 3: can do that, get low and your quarterback is strong
34:21
Speaker 3: like Jalen Hurts, you can still do that. You just
34:23
Speaker 3: can't have Saquon Barkley and his thunderquads. But behind it
34:29
Speaker 3: pushing forward like that, I mean, it's just it's it's
34:33
Speaker 3: just leverage and it doesn't make any sense. So if
34:36
Speaker 3: you can tell those two, those two rule changes, if
34:40
Speaker 3: there's a theme to it, it's it's hypocritical.
34:43
Speaker 1: I mean, it really is.
34:44
Speaker 3: It's like, on one hand, you can't know you can't
34:46
Speaker 3: have hands to the face unless you have the football.
34:49
Speaker 3: Then you can shove a guy and club him right
34:52
Speaker 3: in the face. That's fine because you have the ball.
34:54
Speaker 3: And the same thing about leverage. You can't jump on
34:55
Speaker 3: a guy's back to block a field goal. But you
34:57
Speaker 3: can push them in the back for a yard. That
34:59
Speaker 3: makes sense. Let's make it makes sense. I can't do
35:01
Speaker 3: anything about the concussion protocol for a whole week and
35:04
Speaker 3: all that stuff, but yet we still play Thursday games.
35:07
Speaker 3: Can't do anything about that. That's the NFL and that's
35:09
Speaker 3: their money, all right. Josh in Chicago was next.
35:13
Speaker 21: Hey, Nick, how you doing good?
35:15
Speaker 1: You well?
35:16
Speaker 21: Resigning Elik Davis was the last square in my Bengo cards.
35:19
Speaker 21: So I just hit on that.
35:20
Speaker 15: Got it, man, Yeah, I got it. Now we're good.
35:24
Speaker 21: That's for Chris.
35:25
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good one.
35:27
Speaker 3: But I mean what's funny about that is it was
35:30
Speaker 3: like he wasn't even on a roster until like three days.
35:35
Speaker 1: Ago, you know what I mean.
35:36
Speaker 3: Now now we're worried about resigning him. No, I don't
35:40
Speaker 3: think you're worried about that one.
35:41
Speaker 21: But he plays hard, you know. I mean he reminds
35:44
Speaker 21: me of Joe Looney right when we had like Joe
35:47
Speaker 21: was kind of like sticking around. It would just kind
35:48
Speaker 21: of come back and forth and like always go out
35:51
Speaker 21: there and just like play hard. So yeah, the reason
35:55
Speaker 21: I called today I was hearing the comments and I
35:57
Speaker 21: just want to bring up the stuff with like Javonte
35:59
Speaker 21: and the play especially in the goal line. And what
36:01
Speaker 21: bugs me is, you know we used to sit behind
36:04
Speaker 21: like watching Jason Garrett or Mike McCarthy, and they would
36:07
Speaker 21: have these calls whereas like, hey, we're going to run
36:09
Speaker 21: right up the middle, and we know we're going to
36:11
Speaker 21: Everyone knows we're going to run right up the middle,
36:12
Speaker 21: and we would do it anyway and get stopped here.
36:15
Speaker 21: It's like it's working, and then we just go away
36:17
Speaker 21: from it, and that, you know, that's something that cannot
36:19
Speaker 21: be done against this Chiefs team, right, Chiefs are they're
36:22
Speaker 21: too good. They can come back from down by twenty eight.
36:24
Speaker 21: So we just got to take what we get and
36:26
Speaker 21: we got to keep moving and doing what's working and
36:28
Speaker 21: just keep the ball moving and hopefully that leads to
36:30
Speaker 21: one on Thursday, have a good Thanksgiving, right.
36:33
Speaker 1: Yeah.
36:33
Speaker 8: You know.
36:35
Speaker 3: Football coaches, they they'll outthink themselves too, you.
36:39
Speaker 1: Know what I mean.
36:40
Speaker 3: And it well, this has been working so well, they're
36:45
Speaker 3: probably going to think that we'll do it again because
36:47
Speaker 3: it's working, so let's not do it.
36:52
Speaker 1: I get it.
36:53
Speaker 3: But after a six yard run on first and goal
36:56
Speaker 3: from the eight and now it's second and goal, from
36:58
Speaker 3: the two.
37:01
Speaker 1: You gotta show me that they can stop it first
37:04
Speaker 1: before I just go away from it.
37:08
Speaker 3: Second doun run, third down, play action, fourth fourth down run.
37:15
Speaker 3: You know, that's that's what I would think if you
37:18
Speaker 3: need to, that would have been perfect, you know. I
37:21
Speaker 3: mean the most perfect thing you could have done there
37:23
Speaker 3: is run the ball on second down, get stopped, run
37:27
Speaker 3: the ball on third down, get stopped, run the ball
37:30
Speaker 3: or whatever you do on fourth down, but score. That
37:33
Speaker 3: would have been perfect because of all the time that
37:35
Speaker 3: would come off the clock and you know, the timeouts
37:39
Speaker 3: or whatever they call. You know, we're analyzing a game
37:42
Speaker 3: that the Cowboys won, which is a little different usually
37:45
Speaker 3: when you're still talking about all these plays they didn't win.
37:48
Speaker 3: It worked, It worked, you know what I mean. We'd
37:52
Speaker 3: be talking about Jake Ferguson fumbling the ball. If they
37:54
Speaker 3: would have recovered it, it won the game with a
37:56
Speaker 3: field goal. We would have been talking about that, but
37:59
Speaker 3: it didn't, you know, or we been talking about Cavante
38:02
Speaker 3: Turpin with his with his half halfway you know, uh,
38:07
Speaker 3: a fair cat signal. But the ball, it just it worked.
38:12
Speaker 3: It went their way. Aaron in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
38:17
Speaker 15: Aaron Hey Good, Good morning. How's it going good?
38:20
Speaker 1: How are you doing?
38:21
Speaker 5: Oh?
38:22
Speaker 15: Doing all right? Doing all right? Just coming into work actually,
38:24
Speaker 15: but still kind of celebrating that game. That was a
38:27
Speaker 15: wild game, man. Just a couple of quick things here,
38:30
Speaker 15: just uh uh. I kind of thought going into last week,
38:35
Speaker 15: if we could win these three games the Eagles and
38:38
Speaker 15: then beat Chiefs here on Thursday, and then beat the Lions,
38:42
Speaker 15: what's that do for the rest of our season? You know?
38:44
Speaker 15: I think that builds a lot of momentum and stuff.
38:47
Speaker 15: And I just kind of heard you talking about that
38:50
Speaker 15: that second down call, that second a goal down there
38:53
Speaker 15: towards end of the game. I was right, everything you
38:55
Speaker 15: said is exactly all I thought about it. Why why
38:58
Speaker 15: would we go to a pass instead of trying of
39:00
Speaker 15: just pounded in?
39:01
Speaker 6: But but hey.
39:02
Speaker 15: It worked right, right. So I'm looking forward to the Chiefs. Chiefs,
39:05
Speaker 15: you know, they're not as dominant, so I think we
39:07
Speaker 15: have a real chance on Thursday. You know, we haven't
39:10
Speaker 15: looked the greatest on Thanksgiving Day in a couple of years,
39:11
Speaker 15: but I think this might be the year. I think
39:13
Speaker 15: it just feels like there's momentum building on some things here,
39:17
Speaker 15: and you know, if we can make it out of
39:19
Speaker 15: this this three game stretch. It's three and oh, I
39:22
Speaker 15: think all bets are off and everything's ahead of us.
39:24
Speaker 15: So anyway, that's all I had today. Man, Hey, happy Thanksgiving,
39:27
Speaker 15: enjoyed the show, and take care, Bud.
39:29
Speaker 3: All right, thank you, good good to hear from you.
39:33
Speaker 3: You know you said it hadn't looked good on Thanksgiving
39:36
Speaker 3: one three in a row.
39:38
Speaker 1: I didn't.
39:38
Speaker 3: I didn't realize that. I looked at it yesterday. I
39:41
Speaker 3: didn't realize they had won three games in a row
39:43
Speaker 3: on Thanksgiving Day. I've kind of remembered some some games
39:46
Speaker 3: that didn't go so well. But as we have some
39:50
Speaker 3: people in our social media a team and they're all
39:53
Speaker 3: pretty young, and they're all having nobody's been here really
39:55
Speaker 3: that long, and they have never seen the Cowboys lose
39:57
Speaker 3: on Thanksgiving. So they yeah, they beat the Giants in
40:01
Speaker 3: twenty two, and then Washington twenty three, and then the
40:03
Speaker 3: Giants again in twenty four. Now the competition, those quarterbacks
40:07
Speaker 3: aren't Patrick Mahomes. I know that, so we'll see. But yeah,
40:14
Speaker 3: they're not the same. But there's you know, still s
40:18
Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes. Still you know, all right, let's go, let's go,
40:23
Speaker 3: Bob and New Jersey first time caller, Bob, Yeah.
40:28
Speaker 22: A long time listening, Nick, Thanks for having me on
40:31
Speaker 22: up to be a Cowboys fan up here in New Jerseys,
40:33
Speaker 22: but lifelong Cowboys fan going way way back, like thirty
40:38
Speaker 22: five years back.
40:39
Speaker 3: Awesome, Bob, Yeah, I'm gonna buy I gotta get to here.
40:42
Speaker 3: We go in there all right, A longtime fan, right,
40:45
Speaker 3: So you've been there for a while and stuck through
40:49
Speaker 3: it all.
40:49
Speaker 1: So what you got with on your mind?
40:52
Speaker 22: Sure, Quintin Williams and the kid Wilson, they seem to
40:56
Speaker 22: be making a big difference in hours. They've got some
40:59
Speaker 22: guys help you, Bud, what is your feelings on the
41:01
Speaker 22: Cowboys defense for the rest of the year?
41:03
Speaker 3: That thank you, thank you, And I'm going to piggyback
41:05
Speaker 3: that question with kind of what Aaron said before too.
41:08
Speaker 3: If they were to beat the Chiefs and the Lions,
41:12
Speaker 3: you're seven to five and one, and I think at
41:15
Speaker 3: that point you'd be disappointed if you weren't eleven five
41:20
Speaker 3: and one. I mean, at that point, if you're going
41:22
Speaker 3: from three to five and one and you've got the
41:25
Speaker 3: Raiders coming off the bye week and after the Marshawn
41:29
Speaker 3: nieland tragedy to get that win and then to go
41:33
Speaker 3: beat the Eagles, and then if you beat the Chiefs,
41:35
Speaker 3: and then if you beat the Lions, well you're certainly
41:38
Speaker 3: not expecting to lose to the Chargers at home, the
41:42
Speaker 3: Vikings at home, at the Giants at Washington. I mean,
41:45
Speaker 3: you got four very winnable games. You know, these are
41:49
Speaker 3: these two are would be very difficult to win. I
41:52
Speaker 3: think beating beating the Lions is going to be a
41:56
Speaker 3: huge challenge. But same with the same with the Chiefs.
41:59
Speaker 3: But you know, let's see how let's take it one.
42:01
Speaker 1: At a time. I agree with you.
42:03
Speaker 3: Right down the center of the defense is where it's
42:05
Speaker 3: gotten better, and that changes everything. Quinn Williams right down
42:08
Speaker 3: the middle. That's made Kenny Clark and Osa even better.
42:11
Speaker 3: But those three guys right there, now, you got Overshown
42:14
Speaker 3: and Logan Wilson right there kind of playing in that
42:17
Speaker 3: middle at defense. You got your safeties back Hooker and
42:22
Speaker 3: Donovid Wilson, and I think they're just better football players
42:25
Speaker 3: now that you got these other guys around. It's kind
42:27
Speaker 3: of funny how that works. So right down the core
42:30
Speaker 3: of the defense, you see in some big improvement there
42:34
Speaker 3: let's go to JR and Avondale, Arizona.
42:37
Speaker 5: Board and Nick, how you doing good?
42:39
Speaker 15: You all right?
42:41
Speaker 5: Man? I guess I got in seventeen days in a
42:43
Speaker 5: row and I kind of took that for granted because
42:45
Speaker 5: I haven't been able to get in for anything for
42:48
Speaker 5: anything little last.
42:49
Speaker 9: Week or so.
42:50
Speaker 5: But anyway, I haven't able to listen to the show today.
42:53
Speaker 5: Did y'all give any props out to.
42:55
Speaker 1: Woody Darren Wilson? Yeah, not yet, but no, you're go
43:00
Speaker 1: for it.
43:02
Speaker 5: He's in the next level of the finalist.
43:05
Speaker 21: Yeah, semi final fucked out to him.
43:08
Speaker 5: Yeah, and I saw that on ESPN this morning. I've
43:10
Speaker 5: got my fingers crossed.
43:12
Speaker 8: He makes it.
43:12
Speaker 5: This tis on my favorite players.
43:14
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah.
43:15
Speaker 3: Darren Woodson and Jason Witten were two of the twenty
43:18
Speaker 3: five semifinalists for the Cowboy for the Pro Football Hall
43:21
Speaker 3: of Fame. So it'll get knocked down to fifteen finalists
43:24
Speaker 3: as we get a little closer to it. What he's
43:26
Speaker 3: been here before, this is and he's got he's been
43:28
Speaker 3: at the finalist before, so this is where you expect
43:30
Speaker 3: him to be. Expect Witting and and uh Woody to
43:35
Speaker 3: be there or if they both make it in the
43:36
Speaker 3: same year, twenty eight eighty two, in the same year.
43:39
Speaker 3: That's my two favorite players that I've ever covered to
43:43
Speaker 3: make the Hall of Fame the same year. Uh, that
43:45
Speaker 3: would that would be awesome. Number one and number two.
43:48
Speaker 3: Just get ready to go to Canton for the Hall
43:50
Speaker 3: of Fame game because.
43:51
Speaker 9: We'd be in it.
43:52
Speaker 5: Oh, definitely, I'm going as we are so anyway, I
43:57
Speaker 5: don't believe in analytics. I think analytics. Analytics don't get fired.
44:01
Speaker 5: I'm old school. If you can take the points, I
44:04
Speaker 5: think you take the point, and I don't. I don't
44:07
Speaker 5: like going for it on fourth down. I think he
44:09
Speaker 5: gives the other team all the momentum and just don't
44:12
Speaker 5: like it. I want to see Turpin get the ball
44:15
Speaker 5: in the middle of the field. Every time that guy
44:17
Speaker 5: gets the ball, stand up out of my seat. Just
44:21
Speaker 5: get in the ball some way. And about George Pickens
44:24
Speaker 5: on the slant, I watch that over and over. He
44:27
Speaker 5: is such a long strider. His first two steps out
44:29
Speaker 5: of his break, he just puts distance between whoever's covering.
44:33
Speaker 1: He does.
44:33
Speaker 5: Anyway, my prediction for the game, he's a little bit
44:38
Speaker 5: high scoring. I'm going thirty five, thirty one Cowboys win
44:42
Speaker 5: this one, and happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. Everybody,
44:47
Speaker 5: be safe and go Cowboys.
44:48
Speaker 3: All right, sounds good. You mentioned that about the analytics.
44:55
Speaker 3: I'll say this like, I don't really don't. I don't
45:00
Speaker 3: if I want to see what fourth and three at midfield,
45:03
Speaker 3: what the analytics are for that, whatever that is, whatever
45:07
Speaker 3: the percentage that it tells you to do.
45:09
Speaker 1: That.
45:10
Speaker 3: Tell me what the percentage is between getting it on
45:13
Speaker 3: fourth and three from the third from midfield and what's
45:18
Speaker 3: the percentage of the the opposing team going ninety yards
45:23
Speaker 3: for a touchdown starting at their own ten yard line
45:27
Speaker 3: and going ninety what's the percentage of a touchdown there
45:30
Speaker 3: versus a percentage? Because that's what it is to me, Like, yeah,
45:34
Speaker 3: I understand you for fifty two percent, you can get that,
45:38
Speaker 3: but what's the percentage of them because the anger is
45:40
Speaker 3: gonna get it up there, they're gonna fair catch it
45:42
Speaker 3: at the nine yard line, ten yard line now they
45:44
Speaker 3: first drive of the game and they gotta go ninety
