- 0:20Speaker 3: What's up everyone, Welcome to Cowboys Storyline. I am Nick Eatman,
- 0:25Speaker 3: and let's talk some Cowboys football here in the off season.
- 0:28Speaker 3: But it's never the off season. There's always news, there's
- 0:31Speaker 3: always stuff happening here, especially this week. And we knew
- 0:35Speaker 3: something would materialize with the head coaching position, and it did,
- 0:40Speaker 3: Mike McCarthy moving on as head coach. And it sounds
- 0:45Speaker 3: like it was as close to a mutual decision as
- 0:48Speaker 3: it ever can be. And you know, you always hear
- 0:50Speaker 3: that it was mutual.
- 0:52Speaker 4: Is it ever? Is it ever really mutual?
- 0:54Speaker 3: And in this case, it did seem like this These
- 0:57Speaker 3: were this is what the Jerry stance was.
- 1:01Speaker 4: This is kind of what Mike wanted.
- 1:02Speaker 3: And the end of the day, they just they didn't
- 1:05Speaker 3: see eye to eye on it. And I'm sure money
- 1:08Speaker 3: is a huge factor in it, like it isn't everything
- 1:10Speaker 3: in life. So Mike McCarthy out as head coach and
- 1:14Speaker 3: now we'll we'll talk about it.
- 1:16Speaker 4: Who's next.
- 1:17Speaker 3: That's that's what everyone wants to know. And not only that,
- 1:21Speaker 3: but who are they bringing with them and who's staying
- 1:23Speaker 3: and all that good stuff.
- 1:24Speaker 4: So we'll talk.
- 1:25Speaker 3: About it here on Cowboys storyline eight eight eight eight
- 1:27Speaker 3: five five two two ninety sevens the number to call.
- 1:30Speaker 4: It's the off season.
- 1:31Speaker 3: We only do the one show a week, really, so
- 1:35Speaker 3: let's uh, let's get to it. Let's don't waste any
- 1:37Speaker 3: more time. Let's get to the phone line. Anthony and
- 1:39Speaker 3: Miami calls a lot.
- 1:40Speaker 5: Anthony, You're first, make the quick just like Nest Monday.
- 1:45Speaker 5: What's up, my guy?
- 1:46Speaker 4: How are you?
- 1:47Speaker 5: I'm pretty good. I'm gonna I'm gonna make my statement
- 1:50Speaker 5: and get up out of there.
- 1:51Speaker 6: Man.
- 1:52Speaker 5: Last last time, it was about what we needed to
- 1:54Speaker 5: do in that field at red zone, with that money zone.
- 1:57Speaker 5: I'm trying to fix the Cowboys so somebody else can
- 1:59Speaker 5: fix the coach. I got two players I need back
- 2:02Speaker 5: on the Cowboys, and they prove their worth. They won't
- 2:04Speaker 5: cost that much. I don't think I need brought Cofflan
- 2:07Speaker 5: back on the Cowboys and Rico' dad back on the Cowboys.
- 2:10Speaker 5: Rico Donalds will passed everything you asked of him. He
- 2:12Speaker 5: stayed healthy, he ran behind the line, and a lot
- 2:15Speaker 5: of people say nobody could really run up and run behind.
- 2:18Speaker 5: It was negligent. He did what he had to do.
- 2:21Speaker 5: He wasn't the greatest added, but he tried and I
- 2:24Speaker 5: think he can get better with work. The same with
- 2:26Speaker 5: Brock Kaufman played a couple of positions for you when
- 2:29Speaker 5: other guys went down, didn't cry about it. Got to
- 2:31Speaker 5: bring the nastiness to him. I need those guys back
- 2:34Speaker 5: on the team, sign them as free agents, and then
- 2:37Speaker 5: add whatever yolks you at, and that's all.
- 2:38Speaker 4: I got to hit Anthony.
- 2:40Speaker 3: Hold up, I'm going to ask you a question here.
- 2:42Speaker 3: I know they say quick, but I'm gonna ask you
- 2:44Speaker 3: Hoffmann and Rico. I would think Hoffman's going to play
- 2:47Speaker 3: guard in your mind because maybe he's the center, and
- 2:50Speaker 3: Rico obviously the running back. So if the best pick
- 2:54Speaker 3: on the board at number twelve is at Ashton Genty
- 2:58Speaker 3: at running back, or it's a guard, it's a guard
- 3:01Speaker 3: that that we can come right in and play right guard,
- 3:04Speaker 3: is Hoffmann and Rico good enough for you to say
- 3:08Speaker 3: now I don't need that position.
- 3:10Speaker 5: No, not not at running back and guard and guard.
- 3:13Speaker 5: I'll replace them. I'll get the best guard and let
- 3:15Speaker 5: him compete, but Rico just needs to make he needs
- 3:18Speaker 5: to stay on the team. Genty, you don't pass them
- 3:20Speaker 5: up because you need that. You don't have any running backs.
- 3:22Speaker 2: Number one.
- 3:22Speaker 5: That's number one, you don't have any Number two. He
- 3:25Speaker 5: earned the right to be there and compete. Just sign
- 3:27Speaker 5: up for four five million dollars. Then let genty or
- 3:30Speaker 5: somebody like that come in. No, you don't pass up
- 3:32Speaker 5: that guy.
- 3:33Speaker 4: All right, good enough? Good? I mean that's that. Thank you.
- 3:36Speaker 4: I mean that that's one of those things.
- 3:37Speaker 3: And that's the decisions these guys are you know, the
- 3:40Speaker 3: front offices have to make. Is you know it's yes,
- 3:45Speaker 3: this guy is good. Do we want him back? But
- 3:47Speaker 3: are we Are we saying we're good? I mean, if
- 3:49Speaker 3: it's a top wide receiver, you know you do need
- 3:52Speaker 3: two receivers, so I could see that happening.
- 3:55Speaker 4: But you know, you you.
- 3:57Speaker 3: Feel good about the position you need some help at
- 4:00Speaker 3: for CD. But I'm just saying there are certain positions
- 4:03Speaker 3: where you look at and you're like, all right, yeah,
- 4:04Speaker 3: this is great to have them back. But if we
- 4:07Speaker 3: have a chance to take a difference maker over him
- 4:10Speaker 3: in the draft, would we do it? So that's kind
- 4:12Speaker 3: of the questions I think that always need to be asked.
- 4:13Speaker 3: All right, let's keep it going. I'm a from a Napa, California.
- 4:17Speaker 3: I'm a what's up?
- 4:19Speaker 6: Hey? What's up? Nick? Well, I'm confused, but I'm probably
- 4:26Speaker 6: no different than a lot of other Cowboys fans. Yeah, yeah,
- 4:30Speaker 6: it's what are we doing? Man? What are we doing?
- 4:34Speaker 6: We didn't know what? We didn't know if we wanted
- 4:37Speaker 6: Mike McCarthy a week ago, two weeks ago. More than that,
- 4:42Speaker 6: I just hoped that Cowboys just draft the best player available.
- 4:46Speaker 6: I think all positions are open, no matter what. I know.
- 4:51Speaker 6: I'm trying to put the cart before the horse or whatnot.
- 4:54Speaker 6: Were talking about the draft before we even have a coach.
- 4:56Speaker 6: But I just think that they've always did best. When
- 5:01Speaker 6: when Will McClay has free reign to just pick the
- 5:03Speaker 6: best player, it seems like that's what's always worked out best.
- 5:06Speaker 6: You know, I think it's free. We see we start
- 5:09Speaker 6: with you know, our own players, but you know we
- 5:14Speaker 6: we have to go with the best player. All all
- 5:16Speaker 6: positions are open except for kicker, even quarterback with Dak
- 5:20Speaker 6: you know what I mean? Like, I just think all
- 5:22Speaker 6: positions are open. Hopefully we we do. Maybe what Troy
- 5:27Speaker 6: was saying, and just go with you know, get somebody
- 5:30Speaker 6: like Dan Campbell, just like you know, he's a proto shape.
- 5:33Speaker 6: Bill Parcels. Let that person come in and do what
- 5:37Speaker 6: they do, you know, let them Dan Campbell, Bill Furselves,
- 5:40Speaker 6: whoever it is. Man. But my question, my question is this,
- 5:46Speaker 6: what are we doing? Nick? You're in the building, you
- 5:48Speaker 6: know well, I mean.
- 5:50Speaker 3: Thanks for everything, Thank you appreciate it. I don't know
- 5:53Speaker 3: exactly what's what's going on. I mean, and that's that's
- 5:56Speaker 3: the thing. There's a lot of people in this building
- 5:57Speaker 3: that kind of shake their heads and they don't No.
- 6:00Speaker 3: Let me let me say this to out of all
- 6:02Speaker 3: due respect to Dan Campbell, but but Dan Campbell and
- 6:08Speaker 3: Bill Parcells don't deserve to be in the same sentence
- 6:11Speaker 3: at all.
- 6:12Speaker 4: I mean, I'm sorry.
- 6:13Speaker 3: As far as coaches and stuff like that, I mean,
- 6:15Speaker 3: you kind of are you talking.
- 6:16Speaker 4: About grit or you know, yelling or or.
- 6:19Speaker 3: What toughness because you say, you know, like a Parcels
- 6:24Speaker 3: and a Campbell. I mean, Dan Campbell's closer to Jason
- 6:28Speaker 3: Whitton than than you know, than any of them are
- 6:31Speaker 3: to Parcels. And I say that just when Parcels got
- 6:34Speaker 3: here he had had, you know, two Super Bowls and
- 6:35Speaker 3: so much more, skins on the wall, and and and
- 6:38Speaker 3: Dan Campbell. You know, he's one of those guys that
- 6:41Speaker 3: you know, he's a younger coach, but but you know,
- 6:44Speaker 3: he hasn't been a coordinator for very long. He's a
- 6:47Speaker 3: walk around coach. He's got great assistance, great coordinators, and
- 6:51Speaker 3: those coordinators are are gonna be up for jobs as well.
- 6:54Speaker 3: Both of them kind of linked uh to to this
- 6:57Speaker 3: job as well. So all right, let's go to Irene,
- 7:00Speaker 3: False Church, Virginia, Irene.
- 7:03Speaker 7: Hey, good afternoon, so crazy time, but uh, I guess
- 7:08Speaker 7: I just want to give my of course I want
- 7:10Speaker 7: Ben Johnson or Aaron Glenn, those are my ones. I
- 7:13Speaker 7: feel like we'll end up with Kellen Moore or maybe
- 7:16Speaker 7: Jason Witten just because of the money. My hope is
- 7:19Speaker 7: that with people like uh Aikman and Cassie us chiming
- 7:23Speaker 7: in and taking shots about, you know, not a coveted job,
- 7:26Speaker 7: that maybe Jerry's ego will kick in and he'll do
- 7:29Speaker 7: something a little bit more than what I think he
- 7:34Speaker 7: will do.
- 7:34Speaker 4: Are you talking about.
- 7:37Speaker 8: Yes?
- 7:37Speaker 7: I am, yeah.
- 7:38Speaker 4: He just he just did a little tweet again again. No, offense.
- 7:43Speaker 3: But that's almost like part of Sales and Campbell as
- 7:46Speaker 3: coaches Tony at Aikman. Little a little different there. That's fine,
- 7:52Speaker 3: even Troy Troy Trey can say what he wants about. Yeah,
- 7:54Speaker 3: it's not as coveted. Yeah, and a lot of it
- 7:56Speaker 3: is money. I mean, it comes down to money. But
- 7:58Speaker 3: go ahead, Irene, go ahead.
- 7:59Speaker 9: Yep.
- 8:00Speaker 7: No, that's so. You know those are my wants. You know,
- 8:03Speaker 7: there's there's a positive with Winton in the building. I
- 8:07Speaker 7: just I hope he's not jumping to head coach, all.
- 8:10Speaker 4: Right, all right, appreciate it.
- 8:13Speaker 3: And I don't I don't foresee that happening. I don't
- 8:15Speaker 3: I tell Jason Whitten being the head coach of the Cowboys,
- 8:20Speaker 3: the next head coach of the Cowboy I definitelyn't see
- 8:22Speaker 3: that happening. Do I see him a coach on the staff?
- 8:26Speaker 3: I could see that. I think a lot of people
- 8:28Speaker 3: think that they could see that as well. All Right,
- 8:30Speaker 3: real quick here, we're going to take a break here
- 8:32Speaker 3: on Cowboys storyline. We've got a lot of show left,
- 8:34Speaker 3: We've got a lot of more callers to take. Be

- 10:17Speaker 3: Back here on Cowboys Storyline, I'm Nick Eatman. We've got
- 10:20Speaker 3: more calls to take. I want to hear from you guys.
- 10:23Speaker 3: Been some big news this week, going to be even
- 10:26Speaker 3: bigger news, I would imagine here in the next few days,
- 10:29Speaker 3: maybe weeks, We'll see how this coaching staff gets put together.
- 10:32Speaker 3: Let's start with this segment with Rob in Vegas. Rob,
- 10:36Speaker 3: what's up?
- 10:37Speaker 4: Man?
- 10:39Speaker 13: I got to give Jerry credit for, you know, making
- 10:43Speaker 13: a change. I know he don't like to make change.
- 10:47Speaker 13: And I got to give Mike credit for betting on himself.
- 10:50Speaker 11: Yeah, I'm sure.
- 10:51Speaker 13: I'm sure that deal that was offered was you know,
- 10:54Speaker 13: lowbold and money, lowbold and time years right, and and
- 11:00Speaker 13: he didn't take it. And I'm I'm excited. I just
- 11:03Speaker 13: want him to do a good thorough search. I don't
- 11:07Speaker 13: I knowing Jerry. He's got guys lined up. I have
- 11:10Speaker 13: a feeling like a John Gruden uh and and that's fine.
- 11:14Speaker 13: I don't I I don't see if uh uh no
- 11:19Speaker 13: experience head coach coming in here. It's tough to learn
- 11:22Speaker 13: on the job with this team, and and the team
- 11:25Speaker 13: I think is too good for that. You know, Ben Johnson,
- 11:29Speaker 13: I do like Aaron Glenn. He I could see maybe
- 11:31Speaker 13: him for the cowboy ties, but I I could definitely
- 11:35Speaker 13: see it John Gruden, I think you know Jerry, I'm
- 11:39Speaker 13: sure he has had some so and Dion. You know,
- 11:41Speaker 13: Deon's a long shot. He does bring the cachet and
- 11:46Speaker 13: Deon's old school, but his son's not going to be
- 11:49Speaker 13: in and he would have to know that because they're
- 11:51Speaker 13: not waiting till the draft. Yeah, but it's exciting now.
- 11:56Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it is. It is, Rob, Thanks for the call.
- 12:00Speaker 3: As always, we will have shows every Wednesday. We'll have
- 12:06Speaker 3: a show every Wednesday morning, so and make sure everybody,
- 12:08Speaker 3: all the regulars uh to call if we got about
- 12:11Speaker 3: an hour and a half show every Wednesday morning, and
- 12:13Speaker 3: Rob will be able to call then as well. A
- 12:15Speaker 3: little bit more long winded than that, but that's okay.
- 12:17Speaker 3: I appreciate that. And I knew you'd be excited because
- 12:19Speaker 3: I mean, you know, you've been critical of of Mike
- 12:23Speaker 3: and you know there's there's things to be critical of
- 12:25Speaker 3: for sure, and you're right, that's a good way to
- 12:29Speaker 3: say it. He bet on himself, I mean, because you know,
- 12:32Speaker 3: I mean, he had to have a good idea that
- 12:34Speaker 3: that so he can maybe get one of these jobs
- 12:36Speaker 3: because he gets squeezed out this year. I don't know
- 12:39Speaker 3: if you'll I don't know if you'll get another job,
- 12:42Speaker 3: you know, I mean after this, but we'll see what
- 12:45Speaker 3: happens with Mike. But yeah, as far as other coaches,
- 12:47Speaker 3: like in the Dion stuff, like the stuff you're hearing. Okay,
- 12:52Speaker 3: you gotta remember everything has an agenda. Everybody has one,
- 12:56Speaker 3: and every time anyone says anything, there's something behind it.
- 13:00Speaker 3: So if you're if you're watching those TV shows, the
- 13:04Speaker 3: ones that are there every day on ESPN.
- 13:06Speaker 4: Steven A.
- 13:07Speaker 3: Smith and all them, and you're hearing them tell you
- 13:09Speaker 3: why Dion's a good idea, just remember that they will
- 13:15Speaker 3: benefit from that. I mean, that would be the greatest
- 13:19Speaker 3: thing to ever happen to those talkshops because right now
- 13:22Speaker 3: they have to talk about the Cowboys and Mike McCarthy
- 13:24Speaker 3: all the time, and they probably don't want to. It's
- 13:26Speaker 3: probably boring to them, but they talk about the Cowboys
- 13:29Speaker 3: everything that happens. Mike doesn't ever really give them anything
- 13:33Speaker 3: to say. But imagine what Dion would say. They that
- 13:36Speaker 3: would be a dream come true for all of these
- 13:39Speaker 3: talk shows and things like that. So they're going to
- 13:42Speaker 3: tell you it's a good idea when it isn't. In
- 13:45Speaker 3: my opinion, it's not. You want someone with experience, I mean,
- 13:49Speaker 3: you're gonna have to pay a lot of money.
- 13:51Speaker 4: They didn't want to.
- 13:52Speaker 3: Jerry didn't pay a lot of money for a head
- 13:54Speaker 3: coach who's won a Super Bowl and is a play caller.
- 13:59Speaker 3: He called the play, So what's dion going to cost
- 14:03Speaker 3: a lot more than that? And you don't have a
- 14:05Speaker 3: coordinator either side of the ball, You don't have any
- 14:08Speaker 3: experience there. So yes, he played defense. Is he a
- 14:11Speaker 3: defensive guy? You got to get it. You got to
- 14:13Speaker 3: get some top notch coordinators in there. So it would
- 14:16Speaker 3: be a very very very expensive walk around coach. In
- 14:19Speaker 3: my opinion, I think it would be fun for people
- 14:21Speaker 3: that love the circus. But I don't know if it's
- 14:24Speaker 3: the right idea. All right, Uh, let's keep it going here.
- 14:27Speaker 3: We got another call on the line. Let's see here,
- 14:30Speaker 3: we got Davian in Illinois.
- 14:35Speaker 4: I know.
- 14:37Speaker 3: How are you? I know how you are. I know
- 14:39Speaker 3: you're excited, so I can I don't even have to ask.
- 14:44Speaker 6: You.
- 14:46Speaker 3: Well, I mean this is like you're just like your
- 14:48Speaker 3: sixth call ever and they've all been McCarthy needs to
- 14:53Speaker 3: go or whatever.
- 14:53Speaker 4: So anyways, so what do you think? What's what's the
- 14:56Speaker 4: next move here?
- 14:58Speaker 5: Uh?
- 14:59Speaker 2: Priment team. I think it's gonna be then more. I
- 15:02Speaker 2: would love Ben Johnson. Maybe they bring Flues back as
- 15:07Speaker 2: a d C or solidh the d C.
- 15:11Speaker 4: Uh if I had the button. That's what I would hit.
- 15:16Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, Mike and say Zimmer too, say it again,
- 15:20Speaker 2: but I mean Mike and Mike and say Zimmer if
- 15:23Speaker 2: you bring more into uh, Zim around for another year,
- 15:27Speaker 2: if he wants to, he wants to come back and coach,
- 15:29Speaker 2: Uh yeah, that would be nice and dark or I mean,
- 15:34Speaker 2: I think they're gonna probably have Jason on the Jason
- 15:36Speaker 2: Widding on the staff. I don't think it'll be the
- 15:38Speaker 2: head coach. I think he can probably be tight ends
- 15:39Speaker 2: coach or something that'd be cool. But uh yeah, yeah,
- 15:44Speaker 2: pretty much it because I never got to be quick
- 15:46Speaker 2: to do.
- 15:46Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 15:46Speaker 3: Well, I appreciate David, Yes, thank thank you for being
- 15:50Speaker 3: in and out here. But you know, and you he's
- 15:53Speaker 3: been one that's been vocal about about wanting to to
- 15:56Speaker 3: uh see something different, kind of stale play calling, offense
- 15:59Speaker 3: all that, and so you know, I I think that
- 16:03Speaker 3: the you know, you need you need to get a
- 16:05Speaker 3: good defensive coordinator for you're not gonna bring Zimmer back,
- 16:07Speaker 3: but you know the commitment that they made into Dak
- 16:10Speaker 3: and c d uh, you better get an offense in
- 16:12Speaker 3: here that can that can maximize what you're paying. You
- 16:16Speaker 3: know what you're paying for for them. And so whether
- 16:18Speaker 3: that's out of your head coach, or make sure you're
- 16:20Speaker 3: getting the top notch offensive coordinator, but one way or another,
- 16:24Speaker 3: you know, I I definitely think that you have to
- 16:26Speaker 3: cater to that side of the ball for sure. Now
- 16:30Speaker 3: you're gonna you can make the same argument because you're
- 16:31Speaker 3: gonna pay, you know, at some point I would think
- 16:34Speaker 3: they're gonna they're gonna pay with Micah. And and that's
- 16:37Speaker 3: another thing. This coordinator has got to have a mindset
- 16:41Speaker 3: for Micah. They've got to figure out how to to
- 16:45Speaker 3: you know, get him involved and and to the point
- 16:49Speaker 3: where he is the playmaker every single game. He can
- 16:54Speaker 3: wreck games all the time because we know he can
- 16:56Speaker 3: rutch the passer, but you've got to figure out ways
- 16:58Speaker 3: to kind of you know, one up offense. And so
- 17:01Speaker 3: they don't know exactly where he's coming from. I thought
- 17:03Speaker 3: they Zimmer and them did a nice job as as
- 17:06Speaker 3: it kind of went on later on in the in
- 17:08Speaker 3: the season there. But you know, the lines are open

- 18:36Speaker 3: All right back here on Cowboys storyline. The lines are open.
- 18:39Speaker 3: We got a full show here, or at least we're
- 18:42Speaker 3: hoping to have a full show. Need to need to
- 18:45Speaker 3: get some feedback from you guys. Want to hear what
- 18:47Speaker 3: you think eight eight eight eight five five two two
- 18:50Speaker 3: ninety seven. Even if you've already called today callback, we'll
- 18:53Speaker 3: hear from you again. Uh for sure, had Pete in
- 18:56Speaker 3: Connecticut called three times in one show. That's a you
- 18:59Speaker 3: know called three Pete. Uh called it one show. So
- 19:02Speaker 3: if you can call back, H nothing against that, but yeah,
- 19:05Speaker 3: I think, you know, let's let's continue to talk about
- 19:10Speaker 3: obviously the coaching search, coach coaching news and things like that.
- 19:15Speaker 3: I think that you know, yesterday we did a emergency podcast,
- 19:21Speaker 3: I think is what we called it. Mussel, Patrick Walker,
- 19:24Speaker 3: Tommy Aarsh, Kyle Yellmans. We talked about you know who
- 19:28Speaker 3: we thought and could could be in play here. And
- 19:31Speaker 3: I mentioned it several times that that Kellen Moore I
- 19:36Speaker 3: think is a guy that that I think he's a
- 19:39Speaker 3: front runner if I if I had to say, I
- 19:41Speaker 3: think he's the front runner right now. That makes sense
- 19:44Speaker 3: for what Jerry typically likes out of these coaches. Now,
- 19:49Speaker 3: he does want a guy that that that can win,
- 19:51Speaker 3: that has won.
- 19:53Speaker 4: But if you're gonna go.
- 19:54Speaker 3: With a with an unproven coach, it's somebody that's in
- 19:57Speaker 3: his mind proven to him. Jason Garrett made sense for
- 19:59Speaker 3: him there.
- 20:00Speaker 4: And I think.
- 20:01Speaker 3: Kellen would be another one, another situation there. So you
- 20:06Speaker 3: know you're talking about about guys like like Kellen Moore.
- 20:10Speaker 3: Here's what I think he would bring to the table.
- 20:13Speaker 3: He's got a great relationship with Dak and that he
- 20:17Speaker 3: had success. I mean Dak had a lot of success
- 20:20Speaker 3: through thirty seven touchdown passes with him as the offensive
- 20:23Speaker 3: coordinator just a few seasons ago. So it's not like,
- 20:26Speaker 3: you know, only McCarthy was able to take Dak to
- 20:30Speaker 3: another level. I mean he had he had success in there.
- 20:33Speaker 3: I think the offense kind of it flows better now.
- 20:37Speaker 3: All coordinators are going to have plays, you know, play
- 20:40Speaker 3: caller calls that you that you want to take back.
- 20:42Speaker 3: I mean what sarkt at Texas. I mean he's a
- 20:46Speaker 3: great play caller and he has been all season long.
- 20:49Speaker 3: And then you get down to the end of the
- 20:50Speaker 3: season and you know that there's a couple of plays
- 20:52Speaker 3: there and down by the goal line, and there lost
- 20:54Speaker 3: to Ohio State that a lot of the fans were saying,
- 20:56Speaker 3: why did they do this? That's every game, that's every game,
- 20:59Speaker 3: that's every loss like that happens, so so they they're therefore.
- 21:04Speaker 3: But I still think from an offensive mind, from a
- 21:09Speaker 3: relationship with Dak and with some of the other players
- 21:12Speaker 3: that are that have been here, the success that he's
- 21:16Speaker 3: having at Philly, taking him away from Philly probably from
- 21:21Speaker 3: a you know, a money standpoint I'm sure would work.
- 21:23Speaker 3: And and also in this this has to be reiterated.
- 21:29Speaker 4: You gotta you gotta.
- 21:30Speaker 3: Understand this, this everything, This ain't for everyone. Being the
- 21:34Speaker 3: head coach of the Cowboys is not for everyone. There's
- 21:37Speaker 3: a lot of things that happen here, a lot of circumstances.
- 21:40Speaker 10: You know.
- 21:40Speaker 3: Jason Garrett had one of the best lines of all time.
- 21:43Speaker 3: We joke about some of the sayings he would say
- 21:45Speaker 3: because they they'd never changed, kind of like his hair
- 21:47Speaker 3: and his and his and his attire every day never changed,
- 21:50Speaker 3: but his mindset. And he also said, you know, all
- 21:54Speaker 3: the time, be your best, regardless of circumstance. Be your best.
- 21:58Speaker 3: And I'll tell you what circumstances happen around here all
- 22:02Speaker 3: the time, so you got to be your best. I
- 22:04Speaker 3: thought Yerett was really good at that, and you know,
- 22:07Speaker 3: not great in other areas, you know some and that's
- 22:09Speaker 3: why it didn't last forever nine years. But still he
- 22:13Speaker 3: was good at that, and you have to kind of
- 22:15Speaker 3: get that. And that's another thing Kellen Moore sort of
- 22:17Speaker 3: would have on his side there. All right, let's go
- 22:20Speaker 3: back to the phone line. We got Rick in Massachusetts.
- 22:22Speaker 4: Rick, what's up?
- 22:24Speaker 8: Hey? How you doing that good?
- 22:26Speaker 4: How are you?
- 22:27Speaker 8: I'm all right, yeah, I just uh but you know,
- 22:31Speaker 8: trying to get tired of the you know, some people
- 22:36Speaker 8: are like, uh it was it Kyle and uh Patrick
- 22:42Speaker 8: this morning, Tompkins Cowboys that most of the you know,
- 22:45Speaker 8: they would I agree on most of the hype I'm
- 22:48Speaker 8: about Dion is just type of drama on clicks and
- 22:51Speaker 8: stuff like that. Don't really pay no engine to it,
- 22:54Speaker 8: you know. But yeah, I think Glenn, we probably won't
- 22:59Speaker 8: get the interview him and tis the Super Bowl, but
- 23:02Speaker 8: Glenn or sala or Flora is out of Minnesota, you
- 23:07Speaker 8: should be available.
- 23:09Speaker 3: Now are you talking about sala as the head coach
- 23:12Speaker 3: or sala as the coordinator?
- 23:16Speaker 8: One?
- 23:17Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I didn't think he got a fair shake
- 23:22Speaker 3: of the Jets, be honest with you. A lot of
- 23:24Speaker 3: changes going on there, but maybe he did. I mean
- 23:29Speaker 3: I don't know exactly how how long he was there,
- 23:31Speaker 3: but yeah, who else?
- 23:34Speaker 4: Who else? You thinking?
- 23:36Speaker 8: Wow? Those are three main thing. But I think Jason
- 23:39Speaker 8: Wenton will be on the team. And some sort of fashion,
- 23:42Speaker 8: you know, not a head coach, but some sort of
- 23:45Speaker 8: fashion on the coaching staff would be cool.
- 23:48Speaker 6: You know.
- 23:48Speaker 8: The only other people that I would think in mind
- 23:51Speaker 8: for me a person realistically, I bet you know a
- 23:55Speaker 8: thing would be outside would be a I don't want it,
- 23:58Speaker 8: but tell him more. Or John Bruden but playing Flores
- 24:05Speaker 8: or Salah.
- 24:06Speaker 3: All right, all right, Rick, appreciate it, Thanks for the call.
- 24:11Speaker 3: You know, the one name I haven't heard from fans
- 24:15Speaker 3: really hear from media. I mean the names out there,
- 24:18Speaker 3: I haven't heard fans saying they would like Pete Carroll
- 24:22Speaker 3: that that that would be one that you know. He's older,
- 24:27Speaker 3: he's of seventy four. Doesn't really look at it or acted,
- 24:30Speaker 3: but you know it's still you know he's but he
- 24:34Speaker 3: usually you know he's he's He builds teams, good coaching
- 24:38Speaker 3: staff usually around him, and has a nice coaching Tree,
- 24:42Speaker 3: I believe, so that would that would be that would
- 24:45Speaker 3: definitely be an interesting move there. Uh Salah, I'm hearing
- 24:50Speaker 3: More's defensive coordinator type guy. And again I like Eberflus
- 24:54Speaker 3: there also depends on who your coach is. Depends on
- 24:57Speaker 3: who your head coach is, because you know, you get
- 25:00Speaker 3: a young you get a Kellen Moore in here, who's
- 25:04Speaker 3: never never coached as a head coach before.
- 25:08Speaker 4: I would love to.
- 25:09Speaker 3: Have Mike Zimmer as the defensive coordinator back for that.
- 25:14Speaker 3: Mike Zimmers coached eight years in the league as a
- 25:16Speaker 3: head coach for the Vikings, So in need guys like that.
- 25:21Speaker 3: You know, he's never he's he hasn't had a lot
- 25:23Speaker 3: of clock management and all that. That's the thing about
- 25:25Speaker 3: offensive coordinators that haven't done it, you know before. Like
- 25:29Speaker 3: it's third and three. They're calling up a play on
- 25:32Speaker 3: third and three to get it. This is my best
- 25:33Speaker 3: play on third and three. I'm gonna pass it here
- 25:35Speaker 3: and do this. Okay, yeah, but it's a minute thirty
- 25:36Speaker 3: two seconds. They don't have a time out. I understand
- 25:39Speaker 3: you want to get the first down and running it
- 25:41Speaker 3: up the middle is probably not going to get it,
- 25:42Speaker 3: but it does take forty seconds off the clock.
- 25:45Speaker 4: We can punt it.
- 25:45Speaker 3: We have a great punter going to get it down
- 25:47Speaker 3: to the ten yard line. Let him go, you know,
- 25:50Speaker 3: ninety yards and forty five seconds. It's probably the smart
- 25:52Speaker 3: play here. Sometimes offensive coordinators sitting there to going you
- 25:56Speaker 3: just told me to get the first down and you know,
- 25:58Speaker 3: so you have to do a little bit of both.
- 25:59Speaker 3: So I think having a guy you can that can
- 26:01Speaker 3: help manage that with you would be important there. So
- 26:05Speaker 3: it's like everything starts the top. Who's your head coach?
- 26:08Speaker 4: And then what do you need?
- 26:09Speaker 3: What what? What would be lacking here? If it's Kellen
- 26:13Speaker 3: Moore or if it's a defensive minded coach or whatever
- 26:16Speaker 3: it is, then you can kind of figure out from there,
- 26:19Speaker 3: like like you should. No I have we have seen
- 26:22Speaker 3: it here where the coordinator is hired first and then
- 26:25Speaker 3: always creates a weird, you know, dynamic. But I do
- 26:28Speaker 3: think in this case, head coach figure out what's needed
- 26:32Speaker 3: and then go to the coordinators from there. All right,
- 26:34Speaker 3: if we still have Josh on the line, Josh in Chicago.
- 26:37Speaker 15: Hey, Nick, how you doing good man?
- 26:39Speaker 11: How are you not bad?
- 26:40Speaker 15: Tuning in kind of late today and missed the start
- 26:42Speaker 15: of the show. So I hope I'm not being repetitive.
- 26:44Speaker 4: Oh you're good, this is the im to be repet
- 26:48Speaker 4: that's right.
- 26:49Speaker 15: What else can we talk about now? You know, it's
- 26:50Speaker 15: just speculation about where we're going.
- 26:54Speaker 13: I know that there's been.
- 26:54Speaker 15: Some fans out there talking about John Gruden, so I
- 26:57Speaker 15: just want to say, like, I really hope that they
- 26:59Speaker 15: don't go with Grud And I know he's been doing
- 27:01Speaker 15: a lot of video breakdown stuff, but it's I think
- 27:03Speaker 15: it's really easy to sit up there and break down videos.
- 27:05Speaker 15: It's different to actually be a coach and have the
- 27:07Speaker 15: locker room on your side. I'm not mad about losing
- 27:10Speaker 15: Mike McCarthy. I'm not necessarily happy about it either. It
- 27:13Speaker 15: just kind of is what it is. He got five
- 27:15Speaker 15: years and I think, you know, time to move on
- 27:17Speaker 15: isn't a bad thing. But I really hope when they
- 27:21Speaker 15: do this coaching search, I really hope that we don't
- 27:25Speaker 15: just cop to Dion or Jason Winton, because I think
- 27:28Speaker 15: it's hard to get away from a coach who's got
- 27:30Speaker 15: so much history, like Jason Garrett was with the team
- 27:33Speaker 15: right Like, I think it took a long time to
- 27:35Speaker 15: get away from him because of the history he had
- 27:37Speaker 15: with the organization, and I want somebody who's maybe an
- 27:40Speaker 15: outside voice who doesn't have all that history. That's just
- 27:44Speaker 15: me personally. I don't have names, to be honest with you,
- 27:46Speaker 15: I don't. I do kind of wonder though, if you've
- 27:49Speaker 15: heard anything about Will McClay because I think that that's
- 27:51Speaker 15: a domino that needs to be decided and allowing him
- 27:54Speaker 15: to help with the coaching search or you know, finding
- 27:57Speaker 15: out who's going to be the replacement for Will McLay.
- 27:59Speaker 15: I think really important now to see what's going to happen,
- 28:02Speaker 15: and I'll take that off the air.
- 28:03Speaker 6: They thick.
- 28:04Speaker 3: Yeah, well, Josh, that's one of the most important aspects
- 28:10Speaker 3: of this whole thing that has probably been talked about
- 28:12Speaker 3: the least. And it's not like it's been ignored. It's
- 28:15Speaker 3: just hasn't been talked about it as much as it
- 28:18Speaker 3: should be. Will McClay dynamic because you know, some people
- 28:26Speaker 3: wanted Mike back, some people didn't, some people kind of
- 28:31Speaker 3: like you, were a little bit indifferent. I don't know
- 28:33Speaker 3: anybody that has said they didn't want Will McClay back,
- 28:37Speaker 3: and I don't know people that are even indifferent about it.
- 28:40Speaker 3: So you got to remember this was a big year
- 28:44Speaker 3: for him. I had a conversation with him last year
- 28:47Speaker 3: almost about this time when it was determined he was
- 28:49Speaker 3: going to come back, he was not going to take
- 28:51Speaker 3: the GM jobs. He told me he said, hey, my
- 28:54Speaker 3: son is eighteen years old, doesn't live with him. He
- 28:57Speaker 3: lives nearby, but his son is here. Could couldn't move
- 29:01Speaker 3: with them, is what I'm trying to say. And so
- 29:04Speaker 3: he made a commitment to him till he was eighteen
- 29:05Speaker 3: and graduated high school, which is this year, so in
- 29:09Speaker 3: his last year of his contract. That's kind of the
- 29:11Speaker 3: way it worked out. So everybody kind of knew this
- 29:13Speaker 3: could be the time that Will McClay was moving on
- 29:15Speaker 3: and if he wanted to. And I remember him saying
- 29:19Speaker 3: to me, we'll see what happens with all this situation.
- 29:23Speaker 3: I'm not saying there's huge beef or anything like that.
- 29:26Speaker 3: I just think, you know, it's different for a coach.
- 29:29Speaker 3: I mean, it's different for a scouting director to kind
- 29:31Speaker 3: of see, you don't really want to change coaches all
- 29:34Speaker 3: the time, but you know, if you're going to do it,
- 29:37Speaker 3: how much change are you really making? And and then
- 29:39Speaker 3: what kind of say does he have in the process
- 29:42Speaker 3: a lot. Like you said, that contract hasn't been worked out,
- 29:46Speaker 3: but his contract goes until the end of the draft,
- 29:48Speaker 3: so they don't have to do that right away. But
- 29:50Speaker 3: I do think, you know, timing of all this matters,
- 29:54Speaker 3: and I do think that that, you know, whoever is
- 29:57Speaker 3: hired as head coach, I I think Will's going to
- 30:00Speaker 3: have a say in it, and I think he should.
- 30:02Speaker 3: He's earned that, and so it's a big part of it.
- 30:05Speaker 3: I don't even know if I'm if you're picking up
- 30:07Speaker 3: what I'm putting down here, but but I think it's
- 30:09Speaker 3: important for Will McLay to be here, and I think
- 30:12Speaker 3: they know that. Everybody knows that, and that that that
- 30:15Speaker 3: goes into some of the decisions that have been made.
- 30:17Speaker 3: All right, let's go to Travis in San Antonio.
- 30:20Speaker 11: Nick, what's going on?
- 30:21Speaker 4: How are you?
- 30:22Speaker 11: I'm good, Uh, just absorbing the news yesterday. I kind
- 30:26Speaker 11: of figured, uh, we were talking about it in the
- 30:28Speaker 11: space a couple of days ago and figured it was
- 30:30Speaker 11: you know, we always it's the cliche deadlines to make deals,
- 30:33Speaker 11: but in this case, or break deals. So I kind
- 30:35Speaker 11: of figured it was coming sooner than later. So it
- 30:37Speaker 11: wasn't totally shocked by the timing I do want to
- 30:40Speaker 11: throw out there because I know, you know, we live
- 30:42Speaker 11: in a I'm not telling you anything you don't know,
- 30:44Speaker 11: in a super reactionary world nowadays, and I know Jason
- 30:50Speaker 11: wins Nay has been thrown out there. I'm actually not
- 30:53Speaker 11: as against it. I know I heard that, I just
- 30:55Speaker 11: heard the last call, but I'm actually I want to
- 30:57Speaker 11: throw at you like this. I'm actually not as against
- 30:59Speaker 11: it as some people might.
- 31:01Speaker 6: Like.
- 31:01Speaker 11: I would rather go honestly, Nick, I'm not gonna give
- 31:04Speaker 11: it because there's names I prefer like obviously the Ben Johnson's,
- 31:07Speaker 11: Aaron Glenn's like cool. But if they're going to go
- 31:09Speaker 11: a totally alternate direction, which has been sort of mentioned
- 31:12Speaker 11: as you know, it's possibly they could go that way
- 31:13Speaker 11: where they go with a Witting I'm not totally dismissing
- 31:17Speaker 11: it because you mentioned the name that I think he's
- 31:19Speaker 11: linked to, Like if you tell me the coordinators are,
- 31:22Speaker 11: if it's Witting, right, Like, that's the main thing, because
- 31:24Speaker 11: if you bring in like an eber flu swas a
- 31:26Speaker 11: relationship with him. If you bring in I'm gonna throw
- 31:29Speaker 11: out a name for you, Josh McCown, who did a
- 31:31Speaker 11: heck of a job with Sam Darnold this year as
- 31:33Speaker 11: a quarterback coach, and could be you know, he's kind
- 31:35Speaker 11: of a budding name. Is like an OC type of guy.
- 31:38Speaker 11: So I'm just I guess what I'm saying is I'm
- 31:40Speaker 11: trying to be open in this in this search and
- 31:43Speaker 11: not just completely dismiss it, because I do think the
- 31:46Speaker 11: one thing you can say about Jason we know as
- 31:49Speaker 11: far as you know, Rob has mentioned this about being
- 31:51Speaker 11: a good walk around coach. I think he would be
- 31:53Speaker 11: a good walk around guy. I think he would. He's
- 31:55Speaker 11: a very high Q guy. He's a detail oriented guy.
- 31:58Speaker 11: So I do think from a preparationist sandpoint, which was
- 32:00Speaker 11: an issue, I do think he checks some boxes. Now
- 32:03Speaker 11: obviously he doesn't check the experience one. But I mean,
- 32:05Speaker 11: if we're going to go off the cuff and go
- 32:07Speaker 11: a different direction, I don't think it's as easy to
- 32:10Speaker 11: just be I would rather go this route than go
- 32:12Speaker 11: into Dean route personally. Yeah, so let's just see what
- 32:14Speaker 11: you think.
- 32:15Speaker 3: Yeah, here's here's another thing that I'll take off the air,
- 32:19Speaker 3: but which would be interested to get anyone's response to this.
- 32:24Speaker 3: But Jason Witten, he's a cowboy. Of course, he did
- 32:30Speaker 3: play one year for the Raiders. Pretty sure Gruden was
- 32:35Speaker 3: the coach. So if if Witton was the head coach
- 32:40Speaker 3: and needed an experienced offensive coordinator who maybe has been
- 32:45Speaker 3: really good in the league and at times, but he's
- 32:48Speaker 3: now out of the league for other reasons and needs
- 32:50Speaker 3: to get back in it, how about that? As you Rosie,
- 32:54Speaker 3: I don't know if I love any of this. I'm
- 32:56Speaker 3: just saying I'm just talking to talk here, you know,
- 32:58Speaker 3: but this the time we can throw all of it
- 33:01Speaker 3: out there. I like the Josh McCown move again. It's
- 33:07Speaker 3: weird because it's it's like you don't you don't know
- 33:11Speaker 3: what you need. It's like cooking a meal and you're like,
- 33:15Speaker 3: all right, what are the sides going to be? You know,
- 33:17Speaker 3: look what are the sides? And you're like, well, are
- 33:19Speaker 3: we doing fries?
- 33:20Speaker 6: Here?
- 33:20Speaker 4: Are we doing mashed potato?
- 33:21Speaker 3: I mean?
- 33:21Speaker 4: What are we doing?
- 33:22Speaker 3: What's what's what are we making? Are we making burgers?
- 33:25Speaker 3: Are we're making steak?
- 33:26Speaker 6: I mean?
- 33:26Speaker 4: Or what I mean?
- 33:27Speaker 3: So that's what's weird, is like I don't know what
- 33:30Speaker 3: side it is because I don't know what the main
- 33:31Speaker 3: course is going to be just yet, and then I
- 33:34Speaker 3: don't know what else we need.
- 33:36Speaker 4: To go and go around it.
- 33:37Speaker 3: So let's figure that part out and the head coach
- 33:40Speaker 3: is the main course. But there's a lot of names.
- 33:42Speaker 3: Here's another one to throw out, especially if Kellen Morris
- 33:45Speaker 3: in play. How about Doug Nussmeyer. You know he's the
- 33:49Speaker 3: quarterbacks coach. I believe in Philly it could be your
- 33:52Speaker 3: offensive coordinator and worked with Dak. Worked well with Dak.
- 33:56Speaker 3: So again another names one way or an. I think
- 34:00Speaker 3: you're going to see some familiar faces on the coaching staff,
- 34:03Speaker 3: whether it be guys that have played here or coached here.
- 34:07Speaker 4: We're both all right, let's go to Joe and Stanford.
- 34:10Speaker 2: Joe, what's how are you doing?
- 34:14Speaker 15: Pretty good?
- 34:15Speaker 6: Man?
- 34:15Speaker 16: Have much stuff.
- 34:16Speaker 4: It's like old.
- 34:16Speaker 3: Times, man, remember when you and I were just running
- 34:19Speaker 3: this thing. You were you were the one starting us
- 34:21Speaker 3: off every day. Now you've got had to go get
- 34:23Speaker 3: a job or get another job and work different hours
- 34:26Speaker 3: and all this.
- 34:27Speaker 4: Bye bye.
- 34:28Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah.
- 34:29Speaker 16: Well there for a while it was me and like
- 34:31Speaker 16: two or three other callers for about the first five
- 34:33Speaker 16: or six ship.
- 34:34Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, but we were wondering, like is this a
- 34:37Speaker 4: good idea?
- 34:37Speaker 3: Like you know, like no, now, it's gonna be great
- 34:40Speaker 3: to be fine now now it's hard to get in,
- 34:42Speaker 3: which is great?
- 34:43Speaker 4: Is that credit?
- 34:44Speaker 3: But hey, you were one of the pioneers, and I
- 34:47Speaker 3: appreciate that. I always always appreciate that.
- 34:49Speaker 16: Right on, Well you're doing a good thing, brother, So
- 34:52Speaker 16: thank you. I love like as your call call is
- 34:55Speaker 16: breaking into me when I was about to get on,
- 34:58Speaker 16: you were talking about the wit and greeny thing. I
- 35:01Speaker 16: love that. I absolutely love that idea. Yeah, I love
- 35:06Speaker 16: I love Written as a leader. I think he's a
- 35:08Speaker 16: great leader. I mean, you know him better than a
- 35:10Speaker 16: lot of us would know him, so, I mean, you
- 35:12Speaker 16: know what kind of duty is. But I think he's
- 35:14Speaker 16: an amazing person. So I mean getting getting now, why
- 35:19Speaker 16: you can't? I think it would not shock me at all.
- 35:22Speaker 16: In fact, I am going to bet money on the
- 35:26Speaker 16: line for him to be the coach because right now
- 35:30Speaker 16: there's good money to be made on that.
- 35:32Speaker 5: Yeah, so I think I would.
- 35:35Speaker 16: I like Grittin too, so I would be okay with
- 35:37Speaker 16: Gruden being there too.
- 35:39Speaker 5: But you know, like you say, man.
- 35:41Speaker 15: It's such a crapshoot right now.
- 35:43Speaker 16: Who knows what the Joneses are even thinking?
- 35:45Speaker 4: No, no, but it's going to be.
- 35:49Speaker 3: You know, it'll be a splash, I would, Well, I
- 35:51Speaker 3: say that I don't think Kellen Moore would be something
- 35:56Speaker 3: that that would would excite the fan base.
- 35:59Speaker 16: No, not at all. You know, it's not I don't
- 36:02Speaker 16: anything against I think. I mean, he's obviously a good
- 36:05Speaker 16: coach and a good offensive mine. I just don't know,
- 36:08Speaker 16: he doesn't inspire me. I just I think about all
- 36:11Speaker 16: them men in that locker room. He seems like a
- 36:14Speaker 16: little kid, and I know he's not obviously, but I
- 36:18Speaker 16: don't know, there's something about him that just doesn't as
- 36:21Speaker 16: a head coach in the NFL.
- 36:23Speaker 3: Well, what it is is the fact that he looks
- 36:25Speaker 3: like he's in the ninth grade.
- 36:26Speaker 4: I mean, that's what it is. That's what it is.
- 36:28Speaker 3: I mean, but you know, I was It's interesting, though,
- 36:31Speaker 3: there's a couple other coaches in the league that are
- 36:33Speaker 3: having some success. One of them is in Minnesota O'Connell.
- 36:37Speaker 3: The other one is is it Zach Taylor from the
- 36:40Speaker 3: from the Bengals. I mean, they all look like they
- 36:43Speaker 3: could just go to high school and just ride to
- 36:45Speaker 3: school together like all of that. So it's not like,
- 36:48Speaker 3: I mean, and that happens. I mean, I was looking
- 36:50Speaker 3: at O'Connor last night thinking. Really, it's so much difference
- 36:53Speaker 3: than you know, than than Kellen Moore here.
- 36:55Speaker 4: It's just it's just the look. It's just the look of.
- 36:57Speaker 3: Like, you know, he's like he's never he's never shaved
- 37:00Speaker 3: because he has never had to and never needed to.
- 37:02Speaker 4: You know, That's what it looks like, you know, from
- 37:04Speaker 4: Kellen Moore.
- 37:05Speaker 3: But more than anything, it's not it's not about look,
- 37:08Speaker 3: it's about do you have what it takes to stand
- 37:10Speaker 3: in front of grown men and get them to play
- 37:14Speaker 3: for you at every single snap, every single play, when
- 37:17Speaker 3: you're not when you're hurt?
- 37:19Speaker 4: Do you do.
- 37:20Speaker 3: You have what it takes? And the Dan Campbell's you
- 37:23Speaker 3: know that like that raw ross stuff like that, it goes,
- 37:27Speaker 3: it goes a little bit. I don't know if it
- 37:28Speaker 3: goes a long way, but it it. There's something to
- 37:31Speaker 3: be said for that. You know, he said this is
- 37:33Speaker 3: what he was gonna do. They were gonna bite kneecaps,
- 37:36Speaker 3: and that's what they are. That's what they that's what
- 37:37Speaker 3: they're doing. But you wonder, you know, with some of
- 37:42Speaker 3: these coaches, what you know, how are they going to
- 37:44Speaker 3: be able to motivate you know?
- 37:46Speaker 16: Yeah, well, I think witness from that school and that's
- 37:48Speaker 16: why he's my number one choice.
- 37:50Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I agree, all right, Joe, you got anything
- 37:54Speaker 3: else you good?
- 37:55Speaker 16: No, No, thanks for having me on, brother.
- 37:57Speaker 3: All right, appreciate that, all right, I take care. All right,
- 38:02Speaker 3: all right, let's do a let's go to break here
- 38:05Speaker 3: one more time. I'm gonna go to break and we'll
- 38:07Speaker 3: come back and close the show out with one more call.

- 39:17Speaker 1: It's a Cowboys storyline.
- 39:21Speaker 3: All right, back here on Cowboys storyline. Let's get one
- 39:25Speaker 3: more call in before we finished this show today. Let's
- 39:28Speaker 3: go to Dylan in Northport, Florida. Dylan, what's up man?
- 39:32Speaker 17: Hey, mix a real quick here. I know you're up
- 39:34Speaker 17: against the clock. So I'm glad that it didn't work
- 39:37Speaker 17: out for Mike because it sounds like Jerry wanted to
- 39:39Speaker 17: put him on a two year deal and I just
- 39:41Speaker 17: feel like if he was going to be extended, it
- 39:43Speaker 17: need to be for the length of the X contract extension.
- 39:45Speaker 17: Otherwise you're just wasting years off of his extension. You know,
- 39:48Speaker 17: you fired Matt year three out of Dax four years.
- 39:50Speaker 17: It's like, Okay, well, I guess that was a waste
- 39:52Speaker 17: of time for Dak. So I'm glad that didn't work out.
- 39:56Speaker 17: But some of the next guy, I want a badass
- 39:58Speaker 17: coach that just puts an end to all the buddy,
- 39:59Speaker 17: but stuff like, obviously I want a guy that knows
- 40:02Speaker 17: what he's doing. But like, from an attitude perspective, let's
- 40:04Speaker 17: stop with like cauling coach unk and like your best
- 40:07Speaker 17: friend and like all that stuff. But that's just gets
- 40:09Speaker 17: somebody who's an authority figure who puts a little bit
- 40:13Speaker 17: of fear in guys. Not have to be a jerk,
- 40:14Speaker 17: but it's a little bit of respect and authority goes
- 40:17Speaker 17: a long way, I think, And we've been missing that
- 40:18Speaker 17: for quite some time.
- 40:19Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, And I mean, and that's the thing. Who
- 40:22Speaker 3: among this group of coaches, and it could be someone
- 40:26Speaker 3: we don't even know about, but who among this group
- 40:28Speaker 3: do you think has that?
- 40:31Speaker 17: The only guy I can think of that's an actual
- 40:33Speaker 17: legitimate possibility I think is probably Jon Gruden, and I
- 40:36Speaker 17: don't I'm not in love with it, but I think
- 40:40Speaker 17: personality wise he fits obviously Witt and fits that. But
- 40:42Speaker 17: Witton doesn't have a ton of experience, so I just
- 40:44Speaker 17: want to bring him as a positional coach that you
- 40:47Speaker 17: can do that. But an attitude like Gruden I think
- 40:50Speaker 17: would would help shape up the organization. The only issue
- 40:53Speaker 17: was the is he too old school with his new
- 40:54Speaker 17: wave of players would be not only concerned.
- 40:56Speaker 3: Yeah, and well there's some other issues too, it seems like,
- 41:00Speaker 3: I mean, I don't I don't know how it would
- 41:02Speaker 3: go with the league right now. I know there's some
- 41:05Speaker 3: again I haven't even looked at the investigation stuff like that.
- 41:09Speaker 3: I know that there's been some things going on from
- 41:11Speaker 3: the league. He's just been out of it. So uh again,
- 41:14Speaker 3: I don't know how how that would they have to
- 41:17Speaker 3: navigate that to get him back again. These are things
- 41:21Speaker 3: I had I don't really know about, But yeah, you're right.
- 41:24Speaker 3: From a personality standpoint like that, he would be someone
- 41:26Speaker 3: like that.
- 41:27Speaker 13: You know.
- 41:28Speaker 3: I think Aaron Glenn would as well. If you can
- 41:30Speaker 3: get there, if you can get to him and interview him,
- 41:35Speaker 3: then that would be that would be interesting too.
- 41:38Speaker 17: Yeah, and you know, I prefer an offensive guy personally,
- 41:41Speaker 17: like like, obviously Ben Jonson's the biggest name out there.
- 41:43Speaker 17: I don't think that's really anybody in play here. I
- 41:46Speaker 17: don't think Ben Johnson. He's still picky with his teams.
- 41:48Speaker 17: I'm not sure he's gonna want to come to Dallas anyways.
- 41:51Speaker 15: But I like that.
- 41:52Speaker 17: I like Aaron. If you're going to go a defensive
- 41:53Speaker 17: mind Yeah, I think that's the name I keep hearing too,
- 41:55Speaker 17: Aaron Glenn, Yeah, good choice.
- 41:57Speaker 3: Well, you know it's thanks Dylan for the call. I
- 42:00Speaker 3: appreciate it. You know that there's another element to this too,
- 42:05Speaker 3: is that if you wait, you might have the shot.
- 42:10Speaker 4: Like you know, a lot of.
- 42:10Speaker 3: People think, well Ben Johnson, he can go anywhere and
- 42:13Speaker 3: all this stuff, Well if you can't interview him till
- 42:17Speaker 3: they're done playing, I don't know how many coaches want
- 42:20Speaker 3: to wait? You know, are the Bears gonna wait? And
- 42:22Speaker 3: the Raiders and whoever else is open Jacksonville? I mean,
- 42:25Speaker 3: is everyone waiting, you know, just just going for it?
- 42:28Speaker 3: Because if that's the case, you know, it's kind of
- 42:31Speaker 3: like it's kind of like what they say in the
- 42:33Speaker 3: shark tank. You know, if you if you're the last,
- 42:36Speaker 3: if you're the last shark, then the price goes down
- 42:38Speaker 3: a little bit. So again, I just wonder who who's
- 42:41Speaker 3: gonna sit here and wait for it?
- 42:43Speaker 4: You know. But again, lots to.
- 42:45Speaker 3: Talk about, a lot of good stuff, and I'm glad
- 42:49Speaker 3: we will do this every Wednesday throughout the off season
- 42:53Speaker 3: nine thirty Central. We go for about an hour and
- 42:55Speaker 3: fifteen minutes, hour and twenty minutes to the next podcast.
- 42:59Speaker 4: So we'll be doing and that.
- 43:00Speaker 3: Every day, even tomorrow as well. Wednesday. Wednesday morning, nine thirty,
- 43:06Speaker 3: we'll talk more about it. And that's the beauty of
- 43:09Speaker 3: this whole thing. You know, it could change a lot
- 43:13Speaker 3: every day, you know, like you wake up one morning.
- 43:15Speaker 3: I mean even from yesterday to today. It's it was,
- 43:19Speaker 3: you know, you didn't even know how serious things were
- 43:23Speaker 3: with Dion, and now you know they're like, oh okay,
- 43:26Speaker 3: now they talked.
- 43:27Speaker 4: They had they talked.
- 43:29Speaker 3: And and Dion was quoted, you know by saying saying
- 43:33Speaker 3: very intrigued. Uh believes in Jerry and and and believes
- 43:37Speaker 3: in what they're doing, but also loves Boulder and and
- 43:41Speaker 3: that that also could mean but the money wasn't exactly
- 43:44Speaker 3: what I thought, you know, you say the right things
- 43:46Speaker 3: and that stuff. So again, it's always changing, it always
- 43:49Speaker 3: you know, we'll talk more about it tomorrow for Chris Bean,
- 43:52Speaker 3: I'm Nick Eatman. We'll see you next time. On Cowboys Storyline.
- 43:56Speaker 1: This has been a production of Dallascowboys dot Com and
- 44:00Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
- 44:02Speaker 10: Cowboy
