Transcript
- 0:02Speaker 1: The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com
- 0:05Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
- 0:08Speaker 2: Cowboys.
- 0:11Speaker 1: This is Cowboys Storyline, presented by Gillette, the official shave
- 0:17Speaker 1: of the Dallas Cowboys.
- 0:19Speaker 3: Here's Nick Eatman.
- 0:25Speaker 4: Hello and welcome to Cowboys Storyline. I am Nick Eatman,
- 0:29Speaker 4: and it's time to talk some Cowboys football with you.
- 0:32Speaker 4: Gives you a chance to call in and give your
- 0:35Speaker 4: opinion on this football team. Cowboys one and one heading
- 0:39Speaker 4: to Chicago this weekend. And there's no way, right, there's
- 0:44Speaker 4: no way it could be a crazier, wilder experience than
- 0:47Speaker 4: what we saw last Sunday at at and T Stadium.
- 0:51Speaker 4: Cowboys defeat the Giants in all of overtime forty to
- 0:55Speaker 4: thirty seven. I've never seen a tie. I've talked about
- 0:59Speaker 4: it several times. I almost did. But it's okay. Cowboys
- 1:04Speaker 4: get the win because they have Randon Aubrey and he
- 1:09Speaker 4: I don't know if there's a distance, he can't kick
- 1:11Speaker 4: it from sixty four yards like nothing. Forty six yarder
- 1:16Speaker 4: was seriously like a putt for him. You know, in
- 1:19Speaker 4: the end of overtime, Cowboys get the win. Now we
- 1:22Speaker 4: move on. We talked about the Cowboys and the Chicago Bears.
- 1:27Speaker 4: I say, we move on. A lot of people called
- 1:28Speaker 4: in yesterday and didn't get through, so let's you know,
- 1:32Speaker 4: if you call in, you know and talk about the
- 1:33Speaker 4: Giants and talk about the Eagles game, I guess, or
- 1:36Speaker 4: whatever else, well we'll talk about it. But obviously we're
- 1:39Speaker 4: looking forward at the Chicago Bears this week. All right,
- 1:42Speaker 4: let's start off for our first caller is from Casey Joe.
- 1:45Speaker 4: He's in Kansas City. What's up, Joe?
- 1:47Speaker 5: Good morning, Nick? How are you doing this morning?
- 1:49Speaker 2: Good?
- 1:49Speaker 6: How are you good?
- 1:51Speaker 4: Sir?
- 1:51Speaker 7: I thought our offense looked pretty decent.
- 1:54Speaker 8: I'm a little concerned about our defense with Diggs.
- 1:56Speaker 7: He every time they threw up a touchdown it was Digs.
- 1:59Speaker 9: It was good beat.
- 2:00Speaker 7: I don't know if it's because it was zone and
- 2:02Speaker 7: not man to man or what, but I was a
- 2:05Speaker 7: little concerned about that.
- 2:06Speaker 4: What do you think, Yeah, I mean it's very concerning
- 2:09Speaker 4: for sure. Thank you for the call. We're going to
- 2:11Speaker 4: go in quickly today. It was like two minute offense
- 2:14Speaker 4: for us, So thank you for the call. Uh yeah,
- 2:17Speaker 4: you don't want to see your your star cornerback, and
- 2:19Speaker 4: he's a star cornerback. You don't want to see him
- 2:20Speaker 4: getting beat for touchdowns like that. I don't think the
- 2:23Speaker 4: zone is his best friend. I think he's he's more
- 2:26Speaker 4: of a man cover guy. I think he would also,
- 2:29Speaker 4: you know, it's better to have all of your corners there,
- 2:32Speaker 4: and I would love to see a time where you
- 2:34Speaker 4: have Bland and Digs and Elam and even Revel, you know,
- 2:39Speaker 4: Jerry Jones said on on the one O five to
- 2:41Speaker 4: three of the Fan on Tuesday morning. He said that
- 2:44Speaker 4: that Revel should be able to play in week five
- 2:47Speaker 4: after the NFI four games runs out for a non
- 2:51Speaker 4: football injury. That's the list he's currently on, very similar
- 2:54Speaker 4: to Puppuh. He just his injury happened before he was here,
- 2:58Speaker 4: so for four games, and that's what Jerry said on
- 3:01Speaker 4: the fan that he thinks that he'll be ready to go.
- 3:03Speaker 10: Uh.
- 3:04Speaker 4: And then also durn Bland has a chance to play
- 3:07Speaker 4: this week against the Bears. So I think all of
- 3:09Speaker 4: that will help all all of the corners. And I
- 3:12Speaker 4: remember nineteen ninety five, Larry Brown, pretty good cornerback Deon
- 3:16Speaker 4: Sanders comes in and he gets Larry gets nine interceptions
- 3:19Speaker 4: that season, including three in the playoffs, and of course
- 3:22Speaker 4: the Super Bowl. So having the other guy on the
- 3:24Speaker 4: other side certainly helps you as well. Lester and Lakeville,
- 3:29Speaker 4: Minnesota is next. Lester next.
- 3:34Speaker 11: Ask for one of my questions. I was gonna ask
- 3:36Speaker 11: about Rebel. Okay, so he's coming back in week five.
- 3:40Speaker 11: Maybe perhaps that's good. Look up his attributes. He's he's
- 3:45Speaker 11: really good. He should be a good one. But mainly
- 3:49Speaker 11: what I called in for, I didn't get a chance
- 3:51Speaker 11: to get in yesterday, but I'm so happy to see
- 3:54Speaker 11: that we signed Clowney, and I wanted to make a
- 3:57Speaker 11: comment on the running game got to be quit today.
- 4:02Speaker 11: I really see a lot of the like I was
- 4:04Speaker 11: saying before that my offensive line looks real good with
- 4:07Speaker 11: the combination boxing, et cetera, and so forth. And I
- 4:11Speaker 11: really see the commitment to running the ball because we
- 4:14Speaker 11: had a second and twenty seven or something in the
- 4:18Speaker 11: third or fourth quarter and they handed the ball off
- 4:21Speaker 11: and he got about eighteen yards. So I got to
- 4:23Speaker 11: always say, I'm an old school guy. Running the ball's
- 4:26Speaker 11: a commitment. And I believe our line and everything is
- 4:31Speaker 11: doing really well. And I believe the foundation of this offense,
- 4:35Speaker 11: particular offense, should be running the ball, play action, pass,
- 4:39Speaker 11: throw it to the receivers, and that's all I got.
- 4:42Speaker 11: I gotta be quick. Go Cowboys.
- 4:43Speaker 4: Thank you, Lester. You're right, you can't. You know, the
- 4:46Speaker 4: Cowboys love to have play action passes. You can't do
- 4:48Speaker 4: it if you don't run it. Obviously, you guys know
- 4:50Speaker 4: that no one's going to care about your fake you
- 4:53Speaker 4: run if you're not getting anything out of it. And
- 4:56Speaker 4: I do think the offensive line has done a nice
- 4:59Speaker 4: job with the running back. But I also think the
- 5:01Speaker 4: running backs are doing a nice job, and particularly Javonte Williams.
- 5:04Speaker 4: This guy, there's been a lot of runs that should
- 5:08Speaker 4: have been one yard, two yards, four yards. He's making them,
- 5:13Speaker 4: you know, a couple extra yards here. Heck twenty extra
- 5:16Speaker 4: yards for a touchdown the other day, or twenty five.
- 5:19Speaker 4: I mean that that wasn't supposed to be a thirty
- 5:21Speaker 4: yard run. And that's on him for, you know, driving
- 5:24Speaker 4: the legs, keeping it going. So, yes, the offensive line's
- 5:27Speaker 4: done a nice job, and I think the whole thread
- 5:30Speaker 4: of the receivers are helping those running backs are running
- 5:33Speaker 4: running the ball well. And I thought Miles Sanders' touchdown
- 5:35Speaker 4: run was a very good run too, just the way
- 5:37Speaker 4: he kind of we did like a snake the way
- 5:39Speaker 4: he kind of is weaving in that hole like that.
- 5:41Speaker 4: And if you haven't gone back and seen that play,
- 5:43Speaker 4: and you wonder why you're gonna pay Tyler Smith eighty
- 5:47Speaker 4: million dollars guaranteed, watch that touchdown. Watch both touchdown runs
- 5:51Speaker 4: between Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders. Go watch those two
- 5:55Speaker 4: runs and just watch Tyler Smith. He does the same play,
- 5:59Speaker 4: pulling from the left guard to the right side, and
- 6:03Speaker 4: watch what he does to steal off both those touchdown runs.
- 6:07Speaker 4: That's why you've got a guy here for a long
- 6:09Speaker 4: long time. All right, let's go to Mike. He's in Birmingham, England.
- 6:13Speaker 12: Mikey Nick, are you doing good?
- 6:16Speaker 4: How are you?
- 6:17Speaker 11: Yeah?
- 6:17Speaker 10: Really good?
- 6:18Speaker 13: Thank you?
- 6:18Speaker 10: Yeah, Just two quick things. I'll be in and out. So,
- 6:22Speaker 10: first of all, I was looking at the schedule for
- 6:26Speaker 10: the next few weeks today and I was really trying
- 6:29Speaker 10: to manage my own expectations about it because actually Green
- 6:34Speaker 10: Bay game aside, which is looking really tricky, those are
- 6:37Speaker 10: some really winnable games that we've got coming up, and
- 6:41Speaker 10: it's exciting and it's an opportunity. But like I said,
- 6:45Speaker 10: I'm really trying not to get carried away about you know,
- 6:50Speaker 10: being nine and two in a few weeks time, but
- 6:53Speaker 10: opportunities there for the guys. The other thing is Clowney
- 6:57Speaker 10: good that we've got him on board. Always with these
- 7:01Speaker 10: kind of situations, there's there's a key question, which is
- 7:04Speaker 10: why why was he available? And so I'm just wondering
- 7:08Speaker 10: what you know about that and why Carolina didn't want him?
- 7:11Speaker 10: And what do you think our expectations should be of
- 7:14Speaker 10: Jadavian County with that? Leave you to have a great
- 7:17Speaker 10: show and speak to you soon, all right, thank you.
- 7:21Speaker 4: That's every free agent, right, every free agent why are
- 7:24Speaker 4: they available?
- 7:25Speaker 3: You know why?
- 7:26Speaker 4: Why did they not go back to the team they
- 7:28Speaker 4: were on? And that's the same with him. This is
- 7:30Speaker 4: his seventh team. So just like that couple that keep
- 7:36Speaker 4: you know that they get back together, they break up,
- 7:38Speaker 4: get back together. There's a reason why they keep breaking up,
- 7:41Speaker 4: and there's a reason why they keep getting back together.
- 7:43Speaker 4: It's the same with clown there's reason why people keep
- 7:45Speaker 4: signing him. He's doing something, but a lot of it
- 7:48Speaker 4: is him too. I mean, these are one year deals
- 7:50Speaker 4: and maybe it doesn't work out from where he wants
- 7:52Speaker 4: to be, and so you know, I don't think the
- 7:56Speaker 4: Cowboys are trying to just you know, have him here
- 7:58Speaker 4: for a long time. I don't know if he's got
- 7:59Speaker 4: that many years left. So that's a it's a very
- 8:02Speaker 4: valid question, and I think it's a two way street.
- 8:05Speaker 7: You know.
- 8:05Speaker 4: I think that at his point in his career, just
- 8:09Speaker 4: by listening to his answer yesterday, you could kind of
- 8:11Speaker 4: tell his point in his career, he's you know, he
- 8:14Speaker 4: he does he's going to do things his way. He's
- 8:16Speaker 4: going to do things that they work well for him,
- 8:18Speaker 4: and that that should be any any player. But I
- 8:20Speaker 4: also think that you know, he's he's he's here to teach.
- 8:23Speaker 11: Uh.
- 8:23Speaker 4: He said he's coaching his kids. Now, he's got a
- 8:25Speaker 4: nine year old son he's coaching. And he said he
- 8:28Speaker 4: can be a coach on the field too. So I
- 8:31Speaker 4: think this is a good situation. You know, we'll see
- 8:34Speaker 4: how much you know, he's got left in the tank.
- 8:35Speaker 4: I think it's pretty good though. All right, let's go
- 8:37Speaker 4: to Sergeant Sue in Fort Worth and.
- 8:40Speaker 2: He's everybody, Nick, I know you're doing good. You're looking okay.
- 8:43Speaker 2: And I had a quick question man with Terpin. You're welcome.
- 8:46Speaker 2: With Turpin his availability being in question, possibly him being
- 8:50Speaker 2: out could you see this as a week that maybe
- 8:52Speaker 2: they bring Blue up and activate him, you know, finally
- 8:55Speaker 2: give him some carries and then have him help out
- 8:57Speaker 2: in the chick return games. And Serpent might be out
- 8:59Speaker 2: because Tolbert, but you know, he just ain't. It took
- 9:01Speaker 2: the kick return in my opinion.
- 9:02Speaker 4: But I think, all right, thanks thanks for the call. Yeah,
- 9:06Speaker 4: I think that I think Blue would be a good
- 9:09Speaker 4: option there, especially for kickoff returns punt returns. It might
- 9:13Speaker 4: have to be Tolbert. Again, I don't know what kind
- 9:15Speaker 4: of experience Jayden Blue does. It's just different. It's a
- 9:18Speaker 4: different catch when when you're you're there to to catch
- 9:21Speaker 4: the punt and you've got two guys coming down and
- 9:23Speaker 4: right there, uh you know, to on the punt return
- 9:26Speaker 4: at the five yard line or whatever. So but as
- 9:30Speaker 4: far as the numbers goes, you know, if Turpin doesn't play,
- 9:32Speaker 4: I mean, you don't really have another receiver. I mean,
- 9:35Speaker 4: you you could move another receiver up into that into
- 9:38Speaker 4: that role. But you know, maybe it's a Jalen Cropper
- 9:42Speaker 4: type for off the practice squad because he could kind
- 9:44Speaker 4: of do similar things as Chirp and similar So that's
- 9:48Speaker 4: what they'd have to figure out is what does the
- 9:50Speaker 4: receiver room look like? And are you bringing Blue up
- 9:54Speaker 4: just to have another running back? Do you need another
- 9:57Speaker 4: wide receiver to go out there as well? All right,
- 10:00Speaker 4: let's go to break here real quick on Cowboys storyline.
- 10:02Speaker 4: Be right back after this.

- 11:41Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys.
- 11:46Speaker 4: Welcome Back Cowboys storyline. I am Nick eat Men, and
- 11:49Speaker 4: we are in the middle of this talking cowboys and giants,
- 11:54Speaker 4: cowboys and bears. It's even though it's been a few
- 11:57Speaker 4: days removed from the game, it's still hard to not
- 11:59Speaker 4: to at that. We'll be talking about that one for
- 12:02Speaker 4: a long, long time. Forty to thirty seven overtime against
- 12:04Speaker 4: the Giants. So well, if you guys want to want
- 12:07Speaker 4: to chat about that one, go ahead. If you've got
- 12:10Speaker 4: a Scotty report on the Bears or Cowboys versus Bears,
- 12:13Speaker 4: go for that as well. Let's go to Rick. He's
- 12:15Speaker 4: in St. Charles, Missouri. Rick, what's up?
- 12:19Speaker 17: Not much, Nick, Just the defensive issues I see right
- 12:25Speaker 17: now is there just seems to be too much turning,
- 12:28Speaker 17: too much going on. And I'm not saying this coaching
- 12:30Speaker 17: problem or anything like that. I think it's because of
- 12:34Speaker 17: you know, getting caught up on the depth and the
- 12:37Speaker 17: defensive backfield and then without getting into that too much,
- 12:42Speaker 17: you know, your best pass rusher is now gone. Even
- 12:45Speaker 17: though that did help the run defense. So hopefully Clowney,
- 12:48Speaker 17: I'm not expecting miracles, but hopefully he'll help tighten that
- 12:52Speaker 17: up a little bit and that kind of thing. And
- 12:55Speaker 17: going into season, I don't know who would have thought
- 12:58Speaker 17: that or expect did fairly that they were going to
- 13:02Speaker 17: cover better than they were because they were going to
- 13:05Speaker 17: be kind of shorthanded in the defensive backfield. So hopefully
- 13:08Speaker 17: that'll prove when you was going to be surviving for
- 13:11Speaker 17: these next few weeks and see where it goes. Then
- 13:14Speaker 17: I had one other little comment that I haven't heard
- 13:16Speaker 17: too much about, was wonder what your thoughts were on
- 13:19Speaker 17: the Eagles guards appearing to jump the snap during the
- 13:22Speaker 17: multiple touch of multiple toush pushes versus Kansas City. With that,
- 13:27Speaker 17: I'll let you.
- 13:28Speaker 4: Go, all right, thanks, Wait the Eagles offensive linement like
- 13:34Speaker 4: jump before the snap? No way, been doing it for years.
- 13:38Speaker 4: Lane Johnson has done it for years. They're at that
- 13:41Speaker 4: right tackle position. They do it all the time. But yeah,
- 13:46Speaker 4: that's that's definitely something that needs to be addressed. And
- 13:51Speaker 4: again maybe that'll help, you know, push this thing along
- 13:56Speaker 4: to getting a band. You've heard my thoughts on it.
- 13:59Speaker 4: I don't believe it should be a legal play. It's
- 14:02Speaker 4: not because it's the Eagles. It's not because of anything
- 14:05Speaker 4: other than the fact that it goes against other rules
- 14:08Speaker 4: that they have. And you know, you can't jump on
- 14:12Speaker 4: again and I said it a thousand times, so forgive me,
- 14:14Speaker 4: but you cannot jump on someone's back to block a
- 14:16Speaker 4: field goal. That's called leveraging. You can't use another player
- 14:19Speaker 4: to make yourself taller or higher or anything, So why
- 14:23Speaker 4: can you use Why can you use other players to
- 14:25Speaker 4: push you forward and score. The defense can't do it.
- 14:28Speaker 4: The defense can't push you back. It's called forward progress.
- 14:31Speaker 4: I don't understand why the offense can do it. It makes
- 14:33Speaker 4: no sense to me. Hopefully at some point they'll they'll
- 14:35Speaker 4: change it, all right. Let's go to Irene falls Church, Virginia.
- 14:41Speaker 18: Hey, good morning, welcome Todavian Clowney. Let's see so I
- 14:46Speaker 18: like that the team she is a past rush need.
- 14:48Speaker 18: I know he's you know, not Mica, but let's see
- 14:52Speaker 18: what he can do can help. I like that he
- 14:54Speaker 18: was refreshingly honest about what he likes in Dallas. He
- 14:58Speaker 18: wants to be on primetime seven times so that his
- 15:01Speaker 18: next contract, whether it's here or somewhere else, he can
- 15:04Speaker 18: put on a show, so hopefully cool. That's his motivation,
- 15:07Speaker 18: and he puts on a show for whoever wants to.
- 15:09Speaker 10: Pay him next.
- 15:10Speaker 18: Right, that's what we hope. And and I love the
- 15:13Speaker 18: endorsement of Kenny Clark being a factor of why I
- 15:16Speaker 18: want to come here, so you know, he sees the
- 15:18Speaker 18: value of that interior pressure. And then one question for you,
- 15:23Speaker 18: I'll take it off airs. I know a lot of people,
- 15:26Speaker 18: including myself, have been wondering where Maris does.
- 15:28Speaker 4: So I was.
- 15:29Speaker 18: Wondering if you had any thoughts or insights onto you
- 15:32Speaker 18: know what, he hasn't earned repsport because I understand, you know,
- 15:38Speaker 18: Jayden Blue might not be picking up blitz protection and
- 15:40Speaker 18: get that. Don't understand with Marris. He seemed instinctive last
- 15:45Speaker 18: year and in preseason.
- 15:46Speaker 4: So yeah, all right, thank you, all right, thanks. I
- 15:49Speaker 4: wish I had a better answer for the Marris leefoul
- 15:51Speaker 4: I really, I really don't. I think it's a combination
- 15:54Speaker 4: of a lot of linebackers that they like. They they
- 15:59Speaker 4: they I think that they feel like Samborn and Kenneth
- 16:03Speaker 4: Murray are a little bit more three down linebackers that
- 16:07Speaker 4: they could play on all the downs. And Leah Fold maybe,
- 16:11Speaker 4: you know, he's a little undersized, maybe there might be
- 16:13Speaker 4: a fear there of kind of wearing him out, you know,
- 16:16Speaker 4: the entire game.
- 16:18Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 16:19Speaker 4: He's pretty tough though, I mean, he's a big time hitter.
- 16:21Speaker 4: So I'm with you. I like seeing him out there
- 16:24Speaker 4: a little more. Somebody's gonna not be out there when
- 16:27Speaker 4: overshown comes back, so we know that, and I think
- 16:29Speaker 4: everyone will be excited about that as far as Clowney goes.
- 16:32Speaker 4: I know we've had a couple of questions in a
- 16:34Speaker 4: row about him. You know, For me, I love the
- 16:37Speaker 4: fact that that he was pretty honest in his interview Monday,
- 16:40Speaker 4: and he just kind of talked about why Dallas was
- 16:43Speaker 4: a good fit, and he did mention that that how
- 16:46Speaker 4: he wants he wants to be, you know, the you know,
- 16:48Speaker 4: the Cowboys or the Cowboys, and he sees that recognizes that,
- 16:52Speaker 4: and you know, it's okay that if that means he's
- 16:55Speaker 4: going to try to go all out on the on
- 16:57Speaker 4: the primetime games, cool, you know those are big games,
- 17:01Speaker 4: so go right ahead. Wouldn't be the wouldn't be the
- 17:04Speaker 4: first defensive end that we've had here pass Rusher that
- 17:08Speaker 4: that you know, wanted to go and you know, cared
- 17:11Speaker 4: about his own his own contract coming up here and all.
- 17:14Speaker 4: That wouldn't be the first. And I trust me when
- 17:16Speaker 4: I tell you I'm not just talking about number eleven
- 17:19Speaker 4: or number one or whatever. He is now all right,
- 17:21Speaker 4: Josh in Chicago, and.
- 17:23Speaker 19: The employer strikes again right there with that contract talk.
- 17:27Speaker 4: It's all of them, though, you know, I mean, there's
- 17:29Speaker 4: there's a guy in Seattle that kind of cares about
- 17:31Speaker 4: his contract too. They all do, they all do. There's
- 17:34Speaker 4: nothing wrong with that. Go for it, Dak. Let's be honest, Dak.
- 17:38Speaker 4: What was the hang up that? Remember that first time
- 17:40Speaker 4: with Dak with the contract, the hang four or five years.
- 17:44Speaker 4: That means that was already thinking of the next contract.
- 17:46Speaker 4: And he was right. He was right. So it's it's smart.
- 17:49Speaker 4: It's what they do. And I'm not taking shots at
- 17:51Speaker 4: anybody for it.
- 17:52Speaker 19: All right, No, it's their business. So I agree with you.
- 17:54Speaker 19: I got a quick comments make and then I got
- 17:56Speaker 19: a question for you. So and I have a comment, Okay,
- 18:00Speaker 19: is I don't really I don't really believe in moral victories,
- 18:04Speaker 19: But looking at the Eagles week, I kind of think
- 18:06Speaker 19: about this in terms of like taking the test in school.
- 18:09Speaker 19: So after the Eagles, you know, I'd say that was
- 18:10Speaker 19: like a solid B, but after the Giants it was
- 18:12Speaker 19: a C. And we're kind of still figuring out this team,
- 18:14Speaker 19: and I kind of want to see what's going to
- 18:16Speaker 19: happen right over the next seventeen weeks. But what scares
- 18:19Speaker 19: me about this team right now, what concerns me is
- 18:21Speaker 19: are they playing to their competition? Because that's kind of
- 18:24Speaker 19: what I think we saw this past week with the Giants,
- 18:27Speaker 19: and maybe the Eagles play tied their competition because of
- 18:29Speaker 19: the way they even played against Kansas City. It's still
- 18:31Speaker 19: really early to tell, but we'll figure it out, and
- 18:33Speaker 19: hopefully we can figure it out on the defense quick
- 18:35Speaker 19: sooner than later. My question for you is when are
- 18:40Speaker 19: we going to get WOODI back in We haven't heard
- 18:42Speaker 19: from Woody in a while.
- 18:43Speaker 4: I don't like him anymore.
- 18:44Speaker 19: Oh, get out of here. I know that's not true.
- 18:48Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't have a good answer for you. You
- 18:50Speaker 4: know what I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna clip that
- 18:52Speaker 4: part off. Maybe I'll cut out the part about what
- 18:54Speaker 4: I just said, and I'll say, look, the fans are
- 18:57Speaker 4: they want you back? So it's got it absolutely text him.
- 19:00Speaker 4: He's busy, but I'll I'll yeah, why not, let's get
- 19:03Speaker 4: him in here. And now, are you going to the game?
- 19:06Speaker 19: No, so I'm in the military. I'm in North Carolina.
- 19:09Speaker 19: I wish I was going. Yeah, I'd love to go
- 19:12Speaker 19: if I was at home.
- 19:13Speaker 4: So then in two weeks I'm gonna ask you, three
- 19:16Speaker 4: weeks are you going to the game Carolina?
- 19:19Speaker 19: So I'll be traveling to California for a case I
- 19:22Speaker 19: have and.
- 19:24Speaker 4: I'm just kidding, that's it.
- 19:24Speaker 20: Yeah.
- 19:25Speaker 19: I almost bought tickets for North Carolina and then I
- 19:27Speaker 19: had to actually my buddy bottom and then I had
- 19:29Speaker 19: to say, hey, man, can't go. I got I got
- 19:31Speaker 19: a case out in California.
- 19:32Speaker 11: So yeah, all.
- 19:33Speaker 4: Right, Josh, thanks, have a good one. You know, the
- 19:37Speaker 4: grades part of it, I totally and I will I
- 19:39Speaker 4: would say this when he was on the air. I
- 19:41Speaker 4: disagreed completely with that. I think you called it a
- 19:43Speaker 4: B against the Eagles and a C against the Giants. No, no, no,
- 19:48Speaker 4: you're going off your expectations there. It's a that's the
- 19:51Speaker 4: other way around. It's a B for the win, it's
- 19:53Speaker 4: a C for the for the for the lost. You're
- 19:56Speaker 4: you're just you're thinking of who's taking the test. Just
- 19:59Speaker 4: becau because it's the valedictorian that that hasn't ever had
- 20:02Speaker 4: a B in their life and they ended up getting
- 20:04Speaker 4: a B. You're like, oh my god, a B. Oh
- 20:07Speaker 4: my god. You beat the Giants by three at home.
- 20:09Speaker 4: It's still a win. It's still be And just because
- 20:12Speaker 4: over here this guy has never taken and never come
- 20:15Speaker 4: in it doesn't even have a pencil. He just comes
- 20:17Speaker 4: in and all of a sudden, he's like that we
- 20:19Speaker 4: have tests today. He's like, he hadn't been in class
- 20:21Speaker 4: all year and it gets a C. You'd be shocked,
- 20:23Speaker 4: But guess what, it's still a C. And the valedictorians
- 20:26Speaker 4: still got to be like, like, that's why I'd never
- 20:29Speaker 4: understand this grading on the curve type thing, because at
- 20:31Speaker 4: the end of the day, it's still that all you're
- 20:33Speaker 4: doing is you're throwing in your stereotypes and your expectations,
- 20:36Speaker 4: which was proven to be wrong. All right, let's go

- 22:21Speaker 4: nice job of good in and out appreciate that. Let's
- 22:23Speaker 4: go to Travis. He's in San Antonio. Travis, what's up man?
- 22:28Speaker 6: What's going on?
- 22:28Speaker 22: Nick?
- 22:29Speaker 6: Just want to bring the positive news and tell you
- 22:31Speaker 6: that I'm all one hundred percent positive we're going to
- 22:33Speaker 6: beat the Bears. And let you know, I want to
- 22:36Speaker 6: shout out Randy because I saw yesterday on Twitter, even
- 22:38Speaker 6: better than the game beating the Giants, that Randy is
- 22:42Speaker 6: cancer free. You can bringing the bell so so you
- 22:45Speaker 6: got to love that. So I just want to give
- 22:47Speaker 6: him a shout out and tell him, great job, keep
- 22:49Speaker 6: on fighting. And like I said, with that positivity, there's
- 22:53Speaker 6: no way we don't beat the Bears. So let's go Cowboys.
- 22:55Speaker 21: Now.
- 22:55Speaker 4: You can't get you can't get better than that. Thanks Travis,
- 22:58Speaker 4: thanks for the call, and you're right about that. I did.
- 23:00Speaker 4: I did see a text message from that. We're in
- 23:03Speaker 4: a text group and he texted that and had a
- 23:07Speaker 4: t shirts that I'm kicking cancer's ass. I think that's
- 23:10Speaker 4: what it said, so I love it. Uh. I can't
- 23:12Speaker 4: wait to hear from him again. He apologized for not calling. Uh,
- 23:18Speaker 4: he's an excuse, I guess. Uh, even the people and
- 23:21Speaker 4: even if you have called, I mean I know there's
- 23:23Speaker 4: people that tried to call a hundred times yesterday. I mean,
- 23:26Speaker 4: it's just it's it's hard. It's probably because of rants
- 23:28Speaker 4: like this where I keep rambling that you can't get in.
- 23:30Speaker 4: All right, let's go to Chris Saratoga Springs, New York.
- 23:35Speaker 5: Hey, Nick, how's it going good? How are you not
- 23:38Speaker 5: too bad? Just a quick question for you, It's gonna be quick.
- 23:41Speaker 5: Why are why are we kicking the tires with Stefan
- 23:43Speaker 5: Gilmore with the struggles we're having with the secondary? I
- 23:47Speaker 5: mean he played, he played real good for us.
- 23:50Speaker 4: Yeah. Good, you're asking why aren't they Is that what
- 23:55Speaker 4: you're asking?
- 23:56Speaker 11: Correct?
- 23:56Speaker 5: Why aren't they like looking to bring him in with
- 23:59Speaker 5: the with the struggles we're having then the secondary were
- 24:02Speaker 5: obviously with Bland being down and being out for who
- 24:05Speaker 5: knows how long. But I just I think the kid,
- 24:08Speaker 5: I think he's a pro. He's good for the locker room.
- 24:11Speaker 5: He can come right in and be a veteran presence
- 24:14Speaker 5: in that cornerback position. I just don't know why they're
- 24:17Speaker 5: not like looking to him, To be honest, Well.
- 24:21Speaker 4: I think it's because number one, if from being real honest,
- 24:25Speaker 4: they don't think he can he can run anymore. They
- 24:28Speaker 4: don't think he could run, that's you know. But they
- 24:32Speaker 4: got cornerbacks right now. They can't stay with the Giants
- 24:34Speaker 4: receivers either, so you know, I don't know, but they are.
- 24:39Speaker 4: I think the biggest reason is when Jerry Jones was
- 24:41Speaker 4: asked about the secondary, he said, we've got help on
- 24:44Speaker 4: the way and the help in dern Blad that could
- 24:46Speaker 4: play this week, which is good, be really good. And
- 24:49Speaker 4: also Savonna Revel who probably got a couple of weeks
- 24:54Speaker 4: to go, but I mean sounds like he's ready to go.
- 24:57Speaker 4: He could be ready by week five. So that that's
- 25:00Speaker 4: what I think, you know, And when we talk about
- 25:02Speaker 4: progress stoppers, that's where Gilmore could be one. But I mean,
- 25:08Speaker 4: I'm with you. I mean, I definitely thought it was
- 25:10Speaker 4: something that was going to happen. I don't know if
- 25:12Speaker 4: I need to see Reddy Stewart or Trequez Bridges and
- 25:16Speaker 4: those guys, but they are kicking the tires and they
- 25:20Speaker 4: are looking at it. They are they just don't like
- 25:24Speaker 4: the way the tire feels right now, right right.
- 25:28Speaker 2: You know.
- 25:28Speaker 4: I mean, I just don't think they like what they see.
- 25:31Speaker 4: And the other thirty one teams don't either. Based off
- 25:35Speaker 4: of what his price tag has to be, because he's
- 25:38Speaker 4: one of those guys that I think I think the
- 25:40Speaker 4: price tag is pretty high based off of where he
- 25:43Speaker 4: is in his career if he's going to come back.
- 25:44Speaker 4: So it's kind of like, yeah, I'm sure he getting calls.
- 25:46Speaker 4: He's like, sure, I'll come back only for this same
- 25:50Speaker 4: with you know, and so it's got a match. It's
- 25:52Speaker 4: got to be the need with what they're getting and
- 25:54Speaker 4: how much it's gonna cost you.
- 25:57Speaker 5: All right, all right, thanks for taking my call.
- 25:59Speaker 4: Nick, all right, thank you. All right, next caller. What
- 26:04Speaker 4: we got here? Yeah, Pecks in Africa?
- 26:09Speaker 11: Yeah, what's up?
- 26:13Speaker 9: Hey? Nick?
- 26:14Speaker 4: How are you doing?
- 26:16Speaker 8: Man?
- 26:16Speaker 7: It's good to good talk to you again. I used
- 26:18Speaker 7: to be Larry from Kansas, Okay, Paul talked about injuries before.
- 26:22Speaker 7: I'm sure you remember me. Yeah yeah, yeah, Well I
- 26:26Speaker 7: moved over here to Dara Salon, Tanzania with the wife. Now,
- 26:30Speaker 7: so now I've gone to my nickname Peck in Tanzania.
- 26:33Speaker 7: So okay, here we go.
- 26:36Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, new name, new everything. I would guess everything.
- 26:41Speaker 4: I would guess that Kansas in Africa look different, maybe.
- 26:47Speaker 7: Sure, yeah, yeah, absolutely, a little less than a mile
- 26:52Speaker 7: from the beach. I can see the beach from my
- 26:54Speaker 7: different window here.
- 26:56Speaker 4: No one said that in Kansas, right, cool, Well, what's
- 27:01Speaker 4: the coverage like there in in Africa?
- 27:06Speaker 7: It's not bad, No, I get it. I get everything good.
- 27:10Speaker 7: We're on dz D A z N game International Game Pass,
- 27:14Speaker 7: you know.
- 27:14Speaker 17: Obviously.
- 27:15Speaker 7: The real trouble is we're eight hours ahead of everybody,
- 27:18Speaker 7: so got to watch yesterday or Sunday's game actually on
- 27:22Speaker 7: the same day. Okay, normally the later games I'm catching
- 27:28Speaker 7: first thing in the morning. The good news is is
- 27:31Speaker 7: you don't have to worry about the media pounding you
- 27:34Speaker 7: with everything that already happened because they don't really do
- 27:38Speaker 7: American football over here. Of course, it's all soccer.
- 27:41Speaker 4: Okay, all right? So from Afar? What what do you
- 27:46Speaker 4: real quick? What do you see from this team? And
- 27:48Speaker 4: what do you like or don't like?
- 27:52Speaker 7: Well, I well let's start off with I like the trade. Okay, Okay,
- 27:57Speaker 7: I don't like what they got, but it's kind of
- 28:00Speaker 7: what happens when you finally figure out down the road
- 28:03Speaker 7: that you're not going to be able to make a deal.
- 28:05Speaker 7: And I see that deal a lot different than everybody else.
- 28:08Speaker 7: I'm sorry, you've done. I've been I've been in sales
- 28:11Speaker 7: and negotiating my entire life. I'm sixty years old. I've
- 28:15Speaker 7: never done it at the level of David Melugta. Certainly
- 28:18Speaker 7: not Jerry, of course. But but you don't get the
- 28:22Speaker 7: double dip okay. And what I mean by that, real
- 28:25Speaker 7: simple is, does anybody believe for a second that Micah
- 28:30Speaker 7: Parsons left Saudi Arabia, flew all the way home, slept overnight,
- 28:37Speaker 7: went met Jerry, talked with Jerry, and they hashed out
- 28:41Speaker 7: a deal. Whether Micah thought it was what the final
- 28:44Speaker 7: what I see this as a negotiating plan and I
- 28:48Speaker 7: don't want to get deep into it and all that.
- 28:50Speaker 7: That's just the way I see it. And uh. And
- 28:53Speaker 7: then they really thought that they could kind of get
- 28:55Speaker 7: Gary to Jerry to move the goalposts, and then a
- 28:57Speaker 7: little bit later they could need him to move again,
- 29:01Speaker 7: because pretty much since the Zeke deal, all these agents
- 29:05Speaker 7: that that are representing the Stars have had that feeling like,
- 29:11Speaker 7: whatever we do, it doesn't matter. Jerry's gonna sign him.
- 29:13Speaker 7: He's going to sign his big stars and he's not
- 29:15Speaker 7: gonna let him go. So and and that's the frustration
- 29:19Speaker 7: Jerry had at the end of the deal, He's like, no,
- 29:22Speaker 7: not doing it, and you don't get to double dip.
- 29:24Speaker 7: You're never going to make a deal. And then come
- 29:26Speaker 7: back and go, well, that.
- 29:27Speaker 17: Isn't the deal.
- 29:28Speaker 7: Now we're going to redo the deal. I've never ever
- 29:30Speaker 7: heard it in my entire life. So that's just the
- 29:32Speaker 7: way I see that.
- 29:33Speaker 4: That's the way, that's the way it was. I mean,
- 29:36Speaker 4: that's the way it was.
- 29:37Speaker 7: You you you, Well, nobody else is saying that, well.
- 29:41Speaker 4: Right about it. That's that's well one hundred right from
- 29:44Speaker 4: But what I what I've heard about it too. And
- 29:46Speaker 4: there's a little other factors in there later on too,
- 29:49Speaker 4: that they realized that Micah Parsons didn't want to be here.
- 29:52Speaker 4: It doesn't matter what he says, it doesn't matter what
- 29:55Speaker 4: he says. He didn't want to be here at the
- 29:57Speaker 4: end of the day. So anyways, and he's not here,
- 29:59Speaker 4: and let's let's move on. Let's move on.
- 30:04Speaker 7: The fact that they go after and fix the run defense.
- 30:07Speaker 7: That's what's been holding us back for as long as
- 30:11Speaker 7: I can remember. I mean, you can go back to
- 30:13Speaker 7: the Rams playoff game many years ago. Just got to
- 30:19Speaker 7: fix that. And and I like it, and down the
- 30:23Speaker 7: road it'll be good. But the team now it's looking good.
- 30:26Speaker 7: They've got a little work to do, got a lot
- 30:28Speaker 7: of new systems. I'm, you know, obviously concerned with the
- 30:33Speaker 7: type of talent that we have and the secondary and
- 30:38Speaker 7: the way Iberflus likes to play. They don't match up
- 30:41Speaker 7: well on how they fix that and figure that out.
- 30:44Speaker 7: That's going to kind of be the key to this
- 30:46Speaker 7: whole deal in my opinion. You know, we got a
- 30:49Speaker 7: lot of man guys, and he didn't like to play man.
- 30:53Speaker 7: But but I do want to cover the game. I
- 30:56Speaker 7: can't remember and I'm sorry, I cannot remember a five,
- 31:04Speaker 7: you know, five different times the different teams had.
- 31:08Speaker 17: The ball in the.
- 31:12Speaker 7: Overtime unless it was a ten to thirteen game. I mean,
- 31:16Speaker 7: you're talking about teams that had thirty seven points on
- 31:20Speaker 7: the board and all of a sudden, the defensive step up.
- 31:25Speaker 7: It was just incredible to go to double zeros on
- 31:28Speaker 7: the clock twice and change the game the way that
- 31:34Speaker 7: it's never been looked at before. Hey, we get to
- 31:37Speaker 7: the midfield, we got it. Well, you have a field goal.
- 31:39Speaker 11: It's just wow.
- 31:42Speaker 7: The wife has just went bonkers crazy. She didn't know
- 31:45Speaker 7: if she can take another game.
- 31:48Speaker 4: All right, all right, Pecks, have a good one. Thank
- 31:51Speaker 4: you for the call and call back. Have fun out
- 31:55Speaker 4: there in Africa. Sounds like a new world over there,
- 31:58Speaker 4: opposite of Kansas. That's how you do. You just pick
- 32:01Speaker 4: it up and and and move and leave, change, change
- 32:04Speaker 4: it upside down, love it. Rick in Massachusetts is next, Heynick.
- 32:10Speaker 8: How you doing good?
- 32:10Speaker 4: How are you?
- 32:12Speaker 8: I'm good? I think the Dallas should win on Thursday
- 32:17Speaker 8: or Sunday with Chicago. And a quick point is someone
- 32:22Speaker 8: it was your first caller talking about Diggs and stuff
- 32:26Speaker 8: like that. A lot of those a lot of those
- 32:29Speaker 8: things wasn't Dig's fault. He was part of working in
- 32:31Speaker 8: the zone and it was more of a Damian Wilson
- 32:35Speaker 8: trying to cover and let him get by, and then
- 32:37Speaker 8: Diggs had tried to catch up. He thought he had
- 32:40Speaker 8: the inside out.
- 32:42Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I see a lot of that. I'm
- 32:44Speaker 4: not putting all of that on on Digs obviously, the
- 32:47Speaker 4: miscommunication and too much time. I mean that. So it's everybody.
- 32:52Speaker 4: It's it's the it's the safeties and the corners, you know,
- 32:57Speaker 4: it's the safety and the corner, you know, combined, it's
- 33:00Speaker 4: the two of them. Not getting on the same page.
- 33:02Speaker 4: It's it's the pass rush, it's the coaching. I mean,
- 33:06Speaker 4: it's it's all of it. I mean it's early, early
- 33:08Speaker 4: in the year, but you know those are those are
- 33:10Speaker 4: the things and you can say, well, man, that's why
- 33:13Speaker 4: you gotta play preseason games so you can kind of
- 33:15Speaker 4: see that kind of stuff. True like that that there's
- 33:20Speaker 4: something to be said for that. But how many deep
- 33:23Speaker 4: shots are you gonna see? How many exotic routes are
- 33:26Speaker 4: teams gonna really throw out you like that? I don't
- 33:29Speaker 4: know if it's even worth it because I don't think
- 33:30Speaker 4: you're gonna see You're not gonna be pressed like that
- 33:34Speaker 4: with those type of receivers in a preseason game like that.
- 33:37Speaker 4: So yeah, it's good to to to work on that
- 33:41Speaker 4: kind of stuff. I just don't know if you're gonna
- 33:42Speaker 4: see the same kind of stuff that's not vanilla. So
- 33:45Speaker 4: it is what it is. It's good that you know
- 33:48Speaker 4: they got their lumps and still got the win out
- 33:50Speaker 4: of it as well. All right, let's go to Robbie
- 33:53Speaker 4: and Cocoa Beach, Florida.
- 33:56Speaker 23: I don't usually drive a truck, but I'll give this
- 33:58Speaker 23: what up for Carolina.
- 34:01Speaker 17: Nice Well, usually I have my.
- 34:04Speaker 23: Guys riding the truck, but I had you guys sick today.
- 34:07Speaker 5: Are I'm just fitting it.
- 34:09Speaker 17: I'm not actually driving.
- 34:10Speaker 23: No, I'm just sitting at it right now.
- 34:15Speaker 7: All right, well, I'll get a loaded truck first.
- 34:18Speaker 11: Hey, man, so I.
- 34:19Speaker 23: Told you yesterday I was all happy and enjoying it.
- 34:22Speaker 23: Today I'm a little stressed about that Chicago game because, man,
- 34:26Speaker 23: we gave a lot of dang yards. Man, there's nothing
- 34:29Speaker 23: to be said about that. And I yeah, I've heard
- 34:33Speaker 23: all the people talk about Caleb Williams not being able
- 34:36Speaker 23: to read a defense like Russell Wilson, Orpio russ Ken.
- 34:40Speaker 4: But damn, what.
- 34:42Speaker 23: Are we gonna do?
- 34:43Speaker 17: What do you?
- 34:43Speaker 7: What are your thoughts?
- 34:44Speaker 11: That's all.
- 34:44Speaker 23: I'll take it off, dar and lets let you tell
- 34:46Speaker 23: me how we stopped putting five hundred yards against us?
- 34:50Speaker 4: All right, my friends, all right, you two, well, I
- 34:55Speaker 4: can't tell you that that's not going to happen. I mean,
- 34:58Speaker 4: I I yeah, I think the are probably not at
- 35:03Speaker 4: the same I mean they're not at the same level
- 35:05Speaker 4: as the Giants. I mean because because Caleb Williams isn't
- 35:08Speaker 4: isn't the deep ball thrower. He's not as accurate as
- 35:11Speaker 4: Russell Wilson. I mean, he's just not. So that's that's
- 35:14Speaker 4: part of it. Now they can sling the ball around
- 35:16Speaker 4: and he can run it, and he's doing that more
- 35:18Speaker 4: this year. That is something that that we're seeing more
- 35:20Speaker 4: from from Caleb Williams this year. Didn't have a rushing
- 35:22Speaker 4: touchdown at all last year and got won in the
- 35:24Speaker 4: first game of the season. He's averaging I think he
- 35:27Speaker 4: was averaging twenty yards twenty five yards a game last year.
- 35:29Speaker 4: He's a lot two games so far as I forty five.
- 35:32Speaker 4: So you're seeing a little bit of a difference, and
- 35:34Speaker 4: that's something that's hurting the Cowboys already. It hurts obviously,
- 35:37Speaker 4: and then Russell Wilson a couple of times too. So
- 35:41Speaker 4: I think stopping the run, especially when Williams is kind
- 35:44Speaker 4: of on the mood that that's gonna be a big
- 35:46Speaker 4: deal there. I'm not saying. I'm not saying you get
- 35:49Speaker 4: a spy on him. I don't think they would do
- 35:51Speaker 4: that anyways, but you're gonna have to. You got to
- 35:53Speaker 4: get up to that offensive line. That offensive line seems
- 35:55Speaker 4: like it's improved, it's better, and and the Giants offensive
- 36:00Speaker 4: line was beat up and and not never been that
- 36:04Speaker 4: great and they didn't get it. Still don't get enough pressure.
- 36:07Speaker 4: So that's what's gonna come down to again. You got
- 36:09Speaker 4: to get the pressure. And you know, see what kind
- 36:12Speaker 4: of game it's gonna be. I think it's gonna be
- 36:13Speaker 4: back and forth. I don't think the Bears. I mean,
- 36:15Speaker 4: if nay Shaun Wright's one of the starting cornerbacks over
- 36:17Speaker 4: there for the Bears, then then the Cowboys have got
- 36:21Speaker 4: to have a big day. I think weather's going to
- 36:24Speaker 4: be fine. Now, kicking game could be a little different.
- 36:27Speaker 3: You know.
- 36:28Speaker 4: I don't call it the Windy City for nothing, so
- 36:30Speaker 4: it's probably not gonna be the easiest place to kick.
- 36:32Speaker 4: But I still think I think it'll be another wild one.
- 36:34Speaker 4: I think it'll be a high scoring, a lot of
- 36:36Speaker 4: points and a lot of yards in the game. All right,
- 36:39Speaker 4: let's go to Sebastian and Savannah.
- 36:41Speaker 12: Good morning, mister even how.
- 36:43Speaker 11: Do you do?
- 36:43Speaker 4: Good good? How are you hey?
- 36:45Speaker 9: Let's get right to it.
- 36:46Speaker 12: I'm going to just go in the words with Dorothy
- 36:48Speaker 12: for the Wizard of Oz and Bears. Oh my, here
- 36:52Speaker 12: is my analysis. After watching the both of their first
- 36:55Speaker 12: two games, It's like steering in a mirror. We played
- 36:58Speaker 12: very similar style of the bar right now. We have
- 37:00Speaker 12: very similar issues their defensive line and their offensive line
- 37:04Speaker 12: of struggling. Our defensive line and our offensive line is
- 37:05Speaker 12: a little bit better than theirs. It's going to come
- 37:08Speaker 12: down to kind of a backyard braw, and they got
- 37:10Speaker 12: the kind of quarterback that gets out. So this week
- 37:12Speaker 12: we're gonna need coach Eberflus to get have that come
- 37:16Speaker 12: to Jesus a moment and really took the heart lick
- 37:18Speaker 12: in the mirror. Because you can't run zone one percent
- 37:23Speaker 12: of the time in this league. The league is catching
- 37:24Speaker 12: up to it. We're in pace to be my Nolan
- 37:27Speaker 12: type of defense right now, and I never want to
- 37:29Speaker 12: see that again. What we need to do. I'm gonna
- 37:31Speaker 12: go ahead and I'm gonna put knickerbockers on, okay, because
- 37:33Speaker 12: I'm ready for Rain. I'm going with Rain Dakota Prescott
- 37:36Speaker 12: thirty eight to thirty four in a backyard braw. I'll
- 37:38Speaker 12: hang up and listen, you have a great day.
- 37:40Speaker 4: That's kind of the game that I I just kind
- 37:44Speaker 4: of detailed. You know, I think it's going to be
- 37:47Speaker 4: like that. I'm think who is going to be back
- 37:48Speaker 4: and forth? I don't know who's going to be able
- 37:50Speaker 4: to stop each other. You know that they might have
- 37:54Speaker 4: some emotions going up against Eberflus, he might have some
- 37:56Speaker 4: emotions going up going back to Chicago, going back there.
- 38:00Speaker 4: You know, we'll see what he's got for them, you know,
- 38:04Speaker 4: don't forget. You know, Ben Johnson kind of knows his
- 38:08Speaker 4: scheme and and knows, you know, from from going up
- 38:11Speaker 4: against each other with the Lions and the Bears, and
- 38:13Speaker 4: then you know, yes, they know each other in practice,
- 38:16Speaker 4: Caleb Williams and vice versa and all that. So again,
- 38:19Speaker 4: I don't ever know how much that that you put
- 38:21Speaker 4: stock into all that. All the personnel is different, but
- 38:23Speaker 4: I know that they've got some receivers, they've got weapons,
- 38:26Speaker 4: they've got playmakers over there with the Bears, and and
- 38:29Speaker 4: and oh and two. At home, it's pretty desperate. I mean,
- 38:33Speaker 4: you you get to you get to oh and three,
- 38:36Speaker 4: and I think it changes what your season is probably
- 38:40Speaker 4: going to be. And everyone knows that. So the desperation
- 38:44Speaker 4: level in this game is going to be as high
- 38:47Speaker 4: as it's ever been for Chicago, and the Cowboys have
- 38:50Speaker 4: to match that. They have to match that because they
- 38:54Speaker 4: know what's coming up next. Everybody knows it. He's right
- 38:57Speaker 4: around the corner. He's he's coming back to town next week,
- 39:01Speaker 4: and we know what kind of challenge it's going to be.
- 39:05Speaker 4: So this is a huge, huge game for the Cowboys.
- 39:08Speaker 4: They need this one just as much as the Bears needed.
- 39:12Speaker 4: So I think you're gonna see that kind of back
- 39:14Speaker 4: and forth emotion come out. All right, Michael in Utah?
- 39:21Speaker 22: Yo? How you doing?
- 39:21Speaker 16: Brother?
- 39:22Speaker 4: How are you? First time caller?
- 39:24Speaker 22: Yes, sir, first time?
- 39:28Speaker 4: All right? What do you got for me?
- 39:31Speaker 22: I just had a couple questions. One, do you think
- 39:35Speaker 22: our defense had a bad passing day because durn Bland
- 39:40Speaker 22: was out? And do you think when he comes back
- 39:42Speaker 22: he'll be able to fix some things like or do
- 39:46Speaker 22: you think that's like a tell sign to what the
- 39:48Speaker 22: season is gonna hold because the week before we shut
- 39:51Speaker 22: down A. J. Brown, we shut down Devon P. Smith
- 39:53Speaker 22: and really the only long pass was to their third
- 39:56Speaker 22: receiver Naylor or whatever his.
- 39:58Speaker 4: Name is, Yeah, Slayton, Yeah, Yeah, I mean I think
- 40:03Speaker 4: if Doron Bland doesn't do anything, if it's not a factor,
- 40:07Speaker 4: then that you shouldn't be paying him over twenty million
- 40:09Speaker 4: a years. So yeah, he is a factor, and I
- 40:12Speaker 4: think I think we saw it in that game. We
- 40:14Speaker 4: saw what a big difference it was with him not
- 40:17Speaker 4: out there. I definitely think he helps. He also he
- 40:22Speaker 4: just makes all the corners better. I said it last
- 40:25Speaker 4: a few callers ago. I think the combination of the
- 40:28Speaker 4: of the three of them are probably really good.
- 40:32Speaker 22: Okay, Also with Clowney coming in, do you think he's
- 40:37Speaker 22: gonna make an impact right away or do you think
- 40:40Speaker 22: he's just there to kind of like mentor the young
- 40:43Speaker 22: guys and you can have somewhat of an impact, or
- 40:45Speaker 22: do you think he'll kind of make our line that
- 40:48Speaker 22: much better.
- 40:51Speaker 4: The expect I'll just go off what the expectation is.
- 40:53Speaker 4: I mean, the expectation is for him to be to
- 40:56Speaker 4: make an impact right away, because I think this team
- 41:00Speaker 4: has thirty coaches, so if we needed another another mentor
- 41:04Speaker 4: for the young guys. I don't think he needs to
- 41:06Speaker 4: be making three and a half million a year, So
- 41:08Speaker 4: I think he needs to come right in and play
- 41:09Speaker 4: and probably start. There's not anybody there that that I
- 41:13Speaker 4: could see that if as long as he's ready to play,
- 41:16Speaker 4: I can't see him not starting. He should be. He's
- 41:20Speaker 4: played more games than anyone He's played at a higher
- 41:23Speaker 4: level than anyone. Go out there and make it happen.
- 41:28Speaker 22: Houston should get more playing time.
- 41:31Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean he's only he's only had a tackle
- 41:35Speaker 4: for a loss in a sack in each of his
- 41:37Speaker 4: two games. I'm not sure who he takes off the
- 41:41Speaker 4: field or this is not for Houston though, I don't
- 41:44Speaker 4: believe this is going to be moved where he gets
- 41:46Speaker 4: off the field. He's making more plays than anyone else, so, you.
- 41:50Speaker 22: Know, on a limited snapcount compared to everyone else out there.
- 41:54Speaker 4: I mean, I understand you have second round picks both
- 41:58Speaker 4: this year and from a few years ago that you
- 42:01Speaker 4: that you're hoping, you know, as a Roku and Sam Williams.
- 42:05Speaker 4: You're hoping those guys turn the corner and play well.
- 42:09Speaker 4: But so far they really haven't. And let's throw Nieland
- 42:12Speaker 4: in there another second round pick, you know, and I
- 42:15Speaker 4: thought he played pretty well the first game. But again, Houston,
- 42:19Speaker 4: I mean, he's doing too much. You can't take him
- 42:21Speaker 4: off the field. So I don't know, I don't know
- 42:23Speaker 4: where it's gonna happen. I mean, it wouldn't surprise me,
- 42:26Speaker 4: maybe if it's not as a rock Who's week. I
- 42:28Speaker 4: don't I don't know that though, but obviously clown I
- 42:30Speaker 4: think Clowney's gonna have to play uh right away? All right, Thanks,
- 42:35Speaker 4: thanks for the call, Michael, appreciate that. Let's go one
- 42:37Speaker 4: more caller, real quick. David in Ashville, North Carolina.
- 42:42Speaker 13: Yes, how are you doing?
- 42:43Speaker 9: First time caller? Love your show?
- 42:46Speaker 4: There we go? Maybe maybe not there we go? What's up? David?
- 42:51Speaker 9: Hey, first time caller, love your showing?
- 42:55Speaker 4: All right, all right, appreciate you calling in what you
- 42:58Speaker 4: got for me.
- 43:00Speaker 9: I'm just curious because we get guys that are missing
- 43:02Speaker 9: reads and things like that. With today's all technology world,
- 43:07Speaker 9: is there anything like VR? I mean, this would be
- 43:09Speaker 9: great for Milton, wouldn't if he could put on a
- 43:11Speaker 9: VR goggles and pick up reads VR goggles?
- 43:17Speaker 4: I what what am I missing?
- 43:20Speaker 13: Say that again, I'm saying with these with the technology,
- 43:24Speaker 13: could they put on I mean, we got players missing reads,
- 43:26Speaker 13: missing assignments. Okay, could they use VR something technology to
- 43:31Speaker 13: you know, pick up and develop their ability to pick
- 43:34Speaker 13: up those reads?
- 43:36Speaker 4: Sure? I mean, like you know, you're probably five five
- 43:40Speaker 4: years away from that. But I mean as far as
- 43:43Speaker 4: taking it to the to the NFL part of it,
- 43:45Speaker 4: But yes, I mean I'm not I will be an
- 43:49Speaker 4: idiot if I sat here and said, oh no, no,
- 43:51Speaker 4: you're not cond do that. I mean, that's that's just
- 43:53Speaker 4: the world that we're going. I don't think I don't
- 43:55Speaker 4: obviously not there right now, and everything's got to be
- 43:58Speaker 4: at a competitive advantage of making sure that it works
- 44:01Speaker 4: for everybody. But I'm not against any of that stuff
- 44:04Speaker 4: because that's the world that we're in and if it
- 44:06Speaker 4: could help the game on both sides of the ball
- 44:09Speaker 4: at the same time, the NFL will will do it.
- 44:11Speaker 4: So we've already seen that. All right, thanks, great day,
- 44:16Speaker 4: Thanks for the call you too. All Right, let's go
- 44:18Speaker 4: to break one more time here on Cowboys storyline. Be

- 45:31Speaker 1: of the Dallas Cowboys.
- 45:33Speaker 4: All right, welcome back here on Cowboys storyline. I have
- 45:36Speaker 4: time just for a few more minutes. I mean, we
- 45:39Speaker 4: take phone calls here. We also take text messages here.
- 45:42Speaker 4: The text line is working. We had one from Dan
- 45:43Speaker 4: from Philly. He was asking about stuff on Gilmour and
- 45:46Speaker 4: why not bring him back, kick the tires on him,
- 45:48Speaker 4: at least put him on the practice squad. You know,
- 45:50Speaker 4: it can't be any worse than what they've got. You're
- 45:53Speaker 4: you're right about that he's eligible for the practice squad.
- 45:55Speaker 4: But just because you're on the practice squad doesn't mean
- 45:57Speaker 4: he's cheaper. I mean, he's not getting off the couch
- 46:00Speaker 4: a certain price. I think that's the sticking point with him.
- 46:02Speaker 4: That's the reason why they haven't gone that route. I
- 46:06Speaker 4: don't think that they love his ability on how fast
- 46:10Speaker 4: he is, but for the money he's probably asking for,
- 46:13Speaker 4: it just doesn't align up like it did with Clowney.
- 46:16Speaker 4: It did work with what they were wanting and what
- 46:18Speaker 4: Clowney was wanting as well. All right, guys, it's been
- 46:21Speaker 4: a fun show here. You guys hit it again every
