Cowboys StoryLine: What’s the Missing Piece? · Cowboys StoryLine

• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Is a production of dallascowboys.com and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: This is Cowboys Storyline, presented by Gillette, the official shave
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: of the Dallas Cowboys.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: Here's Nick Eatman. What's up, guys? Let's do this. Cowboys
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: Storyline presented by Gillette. It's Thursday, October 22nd. Cowboys getting
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: ready to go to Philadelphia. Schedule's off a little bit.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: It's Thursday to us. I think it's Wednesday to them
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: as they kind of shift everything back a little bit
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: to get that extra day. So they leave Sunday for
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: the Monday night game in Philly. I saw that Cowboys
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: played 93 games on Monday Night Football, 13 against Philly,
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: so 93. You know, Monday Night Football obviously was different
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: than it used to be still. It used to be
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: the premier night game. Now it's kind of, I don't
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: even know if it's second or third. It feels like
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: the Thursday night game gets a lot of attention too,
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: but still Monday Night Football, still Troy Aikman, Joe Buck,
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: so for now. But, you know, let's... You know, it's
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: Cowboys and Eagles. That's what it is. I mean, and
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: the thing about it is, is that both teams are
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: not expecting to be two and four. And the Eagles
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: have obviously gone through a lot more adversity with Jalen
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: Hurts being out, but still both teams have had their
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: share of injuries. But because of the situation of the
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: NFC East and the Giants, you know, they're not going
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: to run away from anybody. I'm not even sure they're
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: the best team in the division. Who knows? But they're
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: leading right now. Washington's going to be competitive, it feels like, until,
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: you know, overtime. So then when you get there to it,
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: all four of these teams are right there battling for it.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: So now you look at two and four and you're like,
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: this is for, it's not for first place in the NFC's,
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: but it's definitely for, you know, an upper hand. So
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: it's big. It's big for the Cowboys and both the Eagles.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: And so I think we're going to see that Monday night.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: All right. A little bit of difference. Here today with
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: our phone line, we're still kind of working through some stuff.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: So what we're going to do is we're going to
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: get on these calls, and we're going to kind of
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: go through it quick. So get your points in, get out,
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: so we can open up the line for the next person.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: We'll start with Bowling Green, Kentucky. Michael, what's up, man?
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: Buck and Troy for now, huh?
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: For now.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: That's what it sounds like.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: I don't know any of that. But, yeah, for now.
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: I've been waiting to ask you this all week because
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: I'm a first-time caller this week.
• 2:50
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: Real quick, I'm going to be quick, quick, quick, quick.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: You've seen Tulsa Kings, the Taylor Sheridan show?
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: I've seen first season, yeah. I liked it. I didn't
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: stop because I didn't like it. I've only seen one season.
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: Well, Samuel Jackson was on the last episode last season,
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: and he was from where y'all are in Texas. What
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: do you call it? Frisco.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: Frisco, yeah.
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: Frisco. Well, there's a new show starting December 18th called
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: Frisco King with Samuel Jackson in Frisco, Texas. That's kind
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: of cool. I figured Jerry Jones was on Landman. That's
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: Taylor Sheridan. Maybe, I don't know, maybe we'll see something.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: But the thing is, I believe about the Cowboys, and
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: I'm one of the Cowboys, I believe that the Cowboys
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: are the best of the worst in the NFC East.
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: I think they are, you know, all four teams aren't
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: doing good, but I think Dallas is the best. And
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: I think in January we're going to look back and
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: this game Monday night, you're going to look back and go,
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: that's when they turned it around. I'm going to go
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: ahead and give a prediction in case I don't get
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: in tomorrow. I'm going 45-13. Oh, God. Dallas. All right.
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 4:15
  Speaker 6: Alright, I'm off.
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: Somebody else can get out.
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: Alright, Michael.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: Thanks. Well, that would be interesting. I don't know. I
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: don't know if I'm with you on that prediction, but
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: you never know. I've seen a lot of games there in.
• 4:30
  Speaker 7: Philly.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: The vet started a few with the vet and then
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: mostly at the link. I don't know if I've seen
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: a blowout like that for the Cowboys. I've seen some
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: for the other Philly, but you know, at this point,
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: any win would be good. If it's 15-13 and it's
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: five Aubrey field goals, that would, the Cowboys will take
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: it for sure.
• 4:53
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: So, waiting on another caller here. Line's open for now. 888-855-2297.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: I wasn't trying to throw a shot. I was just
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: about Aikman and Buck, but I mean, everyone's been talking
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: about it. Even Aikman's not, you know, not, I mean,
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: he pretty much addressed that there's, he's going to be
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: a free agent at the end of the year. So,
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: He's going somewhere. So it's going to be interesting to
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: see where these Cowboy quarterbacks, these former Cowboy quarterbacks that
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: are in the broadcast business, where they end up next year.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: All right. Yeah, I heard about the Frisco King. I
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: still haven't caught up on Tulsa King. Tulsa King's a
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: little different for me and I think for Beam, too,
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: because he lived up there in northeast Oklahoma for a
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: little bit.
• 5:40
  Speaker 7: I did.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: It's funny. The show is Sylvester Stallone. He grew up
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: in the rough and tough New York Bronx and all that.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: He goes to prison and he gets dropped in Podunk, Tulsa, Oklahoma.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: And how does he adjust? And it's like, For me,
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: growing up in the 80s and being you two, Tulsa
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: was the place. I mean, that was where you... You
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: go to the mall in Tulsa. That's where the mall was.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: They have a mall. They have a water park. I mean,
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: so Tulsa was like... Big splash. Yeah, if you want
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: to fly on an airplane, you got to go to Tulsa.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: So for me, I kind of look at it a
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: little differently because, I mean, I thought differently about the
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: city of Tulsa.
• 6:22
  Speaker 7: All right.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: Anyways, Robbie in Cocoa Beach is next.
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: What's up, Nick? I like hearing your story about the mall.
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: That's great.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, a mall like a real mall.
• 6:30
  Speaker 8: Is that what we did in the 80s?
• 6:32
  Speaker 9: Yeah. Yeah.
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: You know, the high school guy watching the girls going
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: to a food court. It was an all-day trip.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Who didn't like Sbarro? You know what I mean?
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: Oh, you're right.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: Or Chick-fil-A. We had Chick-fil-A's in Florida.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: All right. We got those here. What do you got?
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: Oh, nothing good.
• 6:51
  Speaker 9: So we talked about yesterday.
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: I'll try to be quick.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: I think.
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: I think you're right. This could be a get-right game.
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: And I think that you're right. It's all it takes
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: is one to get us back on track. Because then
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: we go, hey, we can do this. We remember that
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: we know how to do this. We are professional football players. Right.
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: Something that I think is pretty positive for us is
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: Philly has the worst third-down conversion. We also, as our
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: defense on their side, are the worst third-down conversion percentage.
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: So the worst versus the worst, maybe we'll win there.
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: And get him off the field on third down, and
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: then our game looks a lot better. And that's all
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: I got. I'll try to call him tomorrow, but I
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: say Cowboys win.
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 7:34
  Speaker 7: Big.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: Big. All right. You guys are two callers so far,
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: both very, very positive. Then again, you know, before the show,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: or if this was in the middle of the afternoon,
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: if someone were to ask me, who are the two
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: callers that call the most that are probably the most positive,
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: I would say– Robbie in Cocoa Beach, Michael from Bowling Green.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: You guys would be up there, which is good. There's
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: nothing wrong with that. Now, not to burst your bubble
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: a little bit there, Robbie, about the Eagles being the
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: last in third down conversion. You know who was last
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: last week? I know, I know, I know, I know.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: Green Bay. Guess what they are this week?
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: Where?
• 8:19
  Speaker 10: 24th.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: All right. We are the medicine cabinet for third down, Nick.
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: Like, I mean, it's one of those things where, you know,
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: it's still relatively early enough where one game, you know,
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: big game or bad game or whatever can kind of,
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: change the standings a little bit as you get later
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: on in the year, then, you know, it's kind of
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: hard to do that with just one game. But, yeah,
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: I mean, Green Bay went 9 out of 10 on
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: third down. And the sad part about it was is
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: third down is just third down, right? It could be
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: third and two, but this wasn't. Like on the first
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: drive of the game, all of them were at least
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: third and five or more. Two of them were third
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: and 13s, and I thought, I thought that was just
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: critical for the flow of the game, especially when the
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: Cowboys take the ball. They go down there, you know,
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: and they don't score. They get a first down or
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: two and punt it back to their 10. So now
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: just get a stop, and now you're playing field position.
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: But they didn't. Four third downs, including the touchdown, were
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: all on third down. So that kind of set the
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: tone of the whole game right there. All right, Rick
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: in Webster, Massachusetts is next.
• 9:31
  Speaker 7: Rick.
• 9:33
  Speaker 6: Hey, Nick. How are you doing?
• 9:34
  Speaker 7: I'm good.
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: How's it going?
• 9:37
  Speaker 6: I'm going all right. It's not, you know, trying to
• 9:42
  Speaker 6: get in all the weeks, but let's get in. So, no,
• 9:47
  Speaker 6: I had, we were talking about spaces last night. I
• 9:51
  Speaker 6: would think the solution I was trying to get in
• 9:53
  Speaker 6: yesterday was, but we discussed it last night, but it was,
• 9:57
  Speaker 6: you know, I'm videos where you know on the offensive
• 10:03
  Speaker 6: line where they had seven six or seven people coming
• 10:07
  Speaker 6: in and you always want to steal and go to
• 10:10
  Speaker 6: take the outside guy be staying inside to take whatever
• 10:16
  Speaker 6: I'll take the shortest route to the quarterback for the
• 10:18
  Speaker 6: front and to let the outside guy go. And, you know,
• 10:24
  Speaker 6: it's like the longest thing, and Dak can worry about that.
• 10:26
  Speaker 6: Or if you have Javante and he can pick him up,
• 10:30
  Speaker 6: or if Brevin Spanford could chip him or something like that,
• 10:33
  Speaker 6: delay him, then he can go out. So it's like
• 10:38
  Speaker 6: just compact it, close up the front gaps, and leave
• 10:43
  Speaker 6: the outside guys go.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: And is that not what you're seeing on the tape?
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: Is that not what's happening?
• 10:51
  Speaker 6: No, they're letting the inside guy go. It's because they
• 10:53
  Speaker 6: will see. Because there was one play where I think
• 10:55
  Speaker 6: it was BB and Booker, and they were like, okay,
• 10:58
  Speaker 6: we got this guy coming, and one guy drops off
• 11:02
  Speaker 6: to go back into coverage. Now it leaves two of
• 11:05
  Speaker 6: them on one guy, and there's a guy coming from
• 11:07
  Speaker 6: a blitz from another angle. He comes right in, and
• 11:11
  Speaker 6: he has that open spot that, He'll open up because
• 11:14
  Speaker 6: he took the outside guy.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: Right. And a lot of, yeah. Well, I'm sure that
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: those are the things that are getting cleaned up this week.
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: And thanks for the call, Rick. See if the Cowboys
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: can definitely work on that. And got to give credit
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: to the Packers for a couple things. Number one, Jonathan
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: Gannon's really good, always has been at blitzing and disguising
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: certain things. And that is why you do a delay blitz.
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: For that reason alone, because if any offensive tackle has
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: a decision to make, usually between the outside guy and
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: the inside guy, they're going to take the inside. But
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: that's why you do a delay blitz. And I'm not
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: saying that it was always that way, but I would
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: imagine that that's pretty much standard for offensive tackles. But
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: when you wait for a second, and then all of
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: a sudden, you know, here comes the guy on the outside,
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: and you block him, then you release. And you can
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: do that because the Packers do a great job of coverage.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: They really do. They don't have a lot of big
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: names over there, but they definitely know how to cover.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: Their defense is playing very well. They're getting interceptions. They
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: got two more. I think they were tied for first
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: going into the game with seven, so they got two more,
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: and they picked off Dak another time. They got taken away,
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: I think, because of a penalty. So there were– You know,
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: they were definitely around the ball. And, you know, one
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: of them was sort of a gift. But, you know,
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: you got to stay on your feet. You know, you
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: got to stay on your feet for sure. All right,
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: let's go to our– Chris, do you have another caller?
• 12:49
  Speaker 7: Yep.
• 12:50
  Speaker 8: I do.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Ernest. He's in southeast Texas.
• 12:55
  Speaker 11: That's correct. Can you hear me?
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: I can hear you. What's up, man?
• 13:00
  Speaker 6: What's up?
• 13:00
  Speaker 11: I just got two points or maybe two questions to
• 13:05
  Speaker 11: see what you think. All right. I was just looking
• 13:10
  Speaker 11: at it as far as the coach. I was comparing
• 13:12
  Speaker 11: the coaches, and when I compared them to the opposing
• 13:17
  Speaker 11: coaching staff, especially the head coach, it just kind of
• 13:22
  Speaker 11: felt like I would trade our coach for the other
• 13:27
  Speaker 11: staff every time.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: This year.
• 13:32
  Speaker 12: And also, I.
• 13:34
  Speaker 11: Would say the same with Dak. as far as playing
• 13:39
  Speaker 11: who played better that, that day for the starting quarterback,
• 13:45
  Speaker 11: maybe you can say that he played better than, than
• 13:50
  Speaker 11: CJ Stroud. But other than that, I think every other
• 13:55
  Speaker 11: quarterback outplayed that.
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I'm looking at the schedule. I mean, I mean,
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: Washington didn't. I mean, you know, their guy didn't. I mean,
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: you got her. Yeah, the starter.
• 14:08
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 14:09
  Speaker 11: It was talking about the starter.
• 14:10
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: But, yeah, I mean, Jackson Dart. Yeah. Yeah, I mean,
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: I think that's fair to say. If you're going to
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: just make that blanket statement, say who played better, Yeah,
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: I would say two and four, that's going to happen.
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: It's going to be two times or four. So, I mean,
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: I think that's normally the way it goes. But I
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: will also say this, too. In fairness, those teams aren't
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: dealing with the same situation the Cowboys are with Dak
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: as far as having to go out and win. And
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: you have to do it because if you don't, you're
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: not going to win because your defense is just that poor. So, again,
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: that's not– That's not an excuse for Dak. It's just
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: a different situation than other teams have.
• 15:01
  Speaker 11: Yeah, I would say Dak is a decent quarterback. But
• 15:07
  Speaker 11: what I think with teams that found out that he
• 15:10
  Speaker 11: is good against the Blitz, but he has like a
• 15:12
  Speaker 11: tipping point. Once you go past that tipping point, that
• 15:15
  Speaker 11: he gets confused. He gets rocked and he can't figure
• 15:22
  Speaker 11: it out once you pass the certain tipping point. And
• 15:26
  Speaker 11: that's all I got, Nick. I appreciate you letting me in.
• 15:28
  Speaker 6: All right.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: I appreciate it. Thanks, Ernest. First time caller for Ernest.
• 15:32
  Speaker 10: Okay.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: All right. So he gets the, here we go, even
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: though he calls them decent, but in, That's fair. You
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: can call him. I mean, it's your opinion. Call him
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: whatever he wants. I think he's a little better than that,
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: but that's just my opinion. But, yeah, it's a different
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: situation than what other teams are going through. But that's
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: the way it is. He's also got a different paycheck
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: than what other quarterbacks have too. So deal with it
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: and be better. And Dak would say the same thing,
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: and he probably will when he talks tomorrow, whenever that is.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: you know, that he's got to be better. And I
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: know he says it all the time, but, I mean,
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: you have to be. Like, it's time to start being better.
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: And the part about being a leader like he is,
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: you know, he's the leader of this team, and he
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: has confidence in everybody. You know what I mean? Third
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: and nine, he'll fire it in there, Schoonmaker. and thinking
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: that he's going to go make the play. And then
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: if it's incomplete, then we're all looking at each other like,
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: why would you do that? What makes you think he's
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: going to make that play? But that's the way Dak,
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: that's the way he is. That's the way he believes.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: That's why those guys love him like they do because
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: he is their leader and he has the confidence. But
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: at some point, I'm not saying that you don't throw
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: it to other players and throw it to the guy
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: that's open, but I think that you look at these
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: other teams. I know Cincinnati's trying to get the ball
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: to Chase. Minnesota's trying to get it to Jefferson. They're
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: trying to get it to their guys. Jackson Smith and
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: Jake was getting the football, regardless of what the coverage is,
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: and that's just the way it's got to be. They've
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: got to figure out if the ball goes to the
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: tight ends or Flannoy, that's fine. They've got to be
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: wide open. But let's try to make this work with
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: these two star receivers that they have. Start there. And
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: I don't know if it always goes like that. All right,
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: let's go to Chris in Saratoga Springs.
• 17:38
  Speaker 12: How you doing, Nick?
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: I'm good, Chris.
• 17:42
  Speaker 12: Yeah, Dak just obviously has to play better for sure,
• 17:45
  Speaker 12: but I have confidence he will. He'll right the ship
• 17:47
  Speaker 12: along with Shottie. I think the next three games, like
• 17:49
  Speaker 12: I said yesterday, are huge, and it's going to go
• 17:51
  Speaker 12: a long way with Shottie's trajectory as a head coach.
• 17:55
  Speaker 12: I have utmost confidence in Dak will right the ship.
• 18:00
  Speaker 12: You know what I love most about him, to be
• 18:02
  Speaker 12: honest with you, is He always takes accountability. Dak's not
• 18:06
  Speaker 12: somebody that blames other people, you know, like some other quarterbacks.
• 18:09
  Speaker 12: Aaron Rodgers always blaming others. Ah, that guy didn't run
• 18:12
  Speaker 12: the right route. Dak never does that. He always falls
• 18:15
  Speaker 12: on the sword, saying, you know what, I've got to
• 18:16
  Speaker 12: play better. And that's what I respect most about Dakota
• 18:19
  Speaker 12: Prescott is He always takes accountability, and I have no
• 18:22
  Speaker 12: doubt he's going to right the ship the next couple
• 18:25
  Speaker 12: weeks along with Shottie. The only question I have for
• 18:28
  Speaker 12: you today is do you have any updates injury-wise, like
• 18:30
  Speaker 12: Kobe Durant? I mean, I know Overshawn's going to be playing.
• 18:32
  Speaker 12: I'm super excited and pumped about that. But do you
• 18:34
  Speaker 12: have any updates on maybe Kobe Durant?
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Thanks for the call, Chris. This is, again, this
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: is their first practice day of the week. This is
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: their Wednesday practice, if you will, on Thursday.
• 18:46
  Speaker 7: Okay.
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: This will be the day that we really get to
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: see what's going on with Durant because he's been DNP
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: just about every day, I think. I don't even believe
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: he was at limited last week. So if he can
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: be at that today and see if he makes some progress, limited,
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: if not full participant, that would be a really good sign.
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: Not only how you practice, but then how you come
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: back the next day and how it feels after you've practiced.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: So that's really important. So these two days here is
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: what we'll be able to really tell. what's happening. I
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: would imagine, you know, that he's going to be ready
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: to go, these guys. Now, before you say, well, Overshawn
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: and Durant, I mean, these guys, it's been, what, six
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: games now, five games, and why weren't they on IR?
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: If they're going to be out, you could be four games,
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: which is true. But you do have eight spots available
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: for the entire year to have a designated to return spot,
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: and they've used six of them right now. So, If
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: there's another injury, knock on wood, but another guy that's
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: going to be out a little bit, you know, the
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: Cowboys have to be real careful on who they choose
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: to put on these spots. And so you can either
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: just keep them on the roster like they are, and
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: they're just going to be inactive every week, like Durant
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: has been, like Overshawn has been. Or if you really
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: need that roster spot, then you'll go and do it.
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: But they only have two left. So Like Dee Winters
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: is another guy that probably could go to IR just
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: with an Achilles strain. But Overshawn's been sitting in that
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: inactive spot on game day at linebacker, and here you go.
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: Now it's probably going to be Overshawn playing, and Winters
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: will be inactive. But as for Durant, this will be
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: a good week. I think it's trending that way that
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: he will play, but we don't really know until he
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: goes out and practices. All right, let's go to break
• 20:36

  Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Vince in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Vince,
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: what's up?
• 22:32
  Speaker 10: Hey, not too much. I think you were right the
• 22:37
  Speaker 10: other day when you said that Cowboys are going to
• 22:39
  Speaker 10: go Win one or two, lose another one or two.
• 22:42
  Speaker 10: I think that's the way the season's going to get.
• 22:44
  Speaker 10: I hope it doesn't.
• 22:45
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 22:46
  Speaker 10: But I think that's what– I think you're right about Dak.
• 22:49
  Speaker 10: I don't want to be right. I don't think about Dak. Yeah,
• 22:51
  Speaker 10: I think about Dak. He's a good quarterback. I think
• 22:56
  Speaker 10: really highly of Dak. He's a smart man. I think
• 22:59
  Speaker 10: he knows what he's doing. He's just had a couple
• 23:01
  Speaker 10: bad decisions. You know, that's about it. The thing I
• 23:04
  Speaker 10: want to ask you is, on defense, I know these
• 23:07
  Speaker 10: guys are great athletes– But how football smart are they? Because,
• 23:13
  Speaker 10: you know, they're blowing some assignments. They're not in the
• 23:15
  Speaker 10: right area when they're supposed to be. So that's my
• 23:18
  Speaker 10: question to you is how smart do you think these
• 23:21
  Speaker 10: guys are on defense? And does it look like it's
• 23:28
  Speaker 10: the coaching or is it the player?
• 23:31
  Speaker 6: Well, all right.
• 23:33
  Speaker 10: You know what I'm talking about?
• 23:34
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, I know what you're talking about. And I think–
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: Thanks for the call, Vince. Maybe I don't know what
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: he was talking about. I don't know if he was
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: talking about somebody specifically, but I will say it's both.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: I mean, I definitely think that when you look at
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: what's the problem on defense, I think that it doesn't always,
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: I think the scheme that Christian Parker's trying to teach
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: them isn't, it's not catching on just yet. Now, A
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: part of it is it's been a bad situation with
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: the injuries. You don't go out and get three, four
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: guys in free agency to come in here and say,
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: this is what I need for this team. And then
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: they're all gone. All of those guys are gone. All
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: the guys that they brought in to kind of help
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: with that, other than Caleb Downs. And in a way,
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: you can say Caleb Downs is gone because he's playing
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: in a different spot than where they had him for
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: most of the training camp preseason and all that. I
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: still don't know. where his best position is going to
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: be um you know it's it's i still he could
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: be on the outside i mean i mean he could
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: be you know in in the back as a as
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: just a regular safety you know or play closer to
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: the line of scrimmage and be in the slot it's
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: probably going to be a hybrid you know in in
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: between but i he's not going to make it i
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: i don't think it's just a slot guy i that's
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: not that's not him the this league, it's got to
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: be a cornerback and preferably a cornerback. That's, that's really,
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: really quick, probably short, shorter than, than most, just because
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: you've got to be, you got to play every, every position.
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: You got to go every, every angle. It's a, it's not,
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: it's one of the toughest positions in the league. And
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: I just don't know if, I mean, I think he's got,
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: it's one thing to have coverage skills. It's another thing
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: to be a really good corner. And I don't believe
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: that's what, Caleb Downs is. I don't think he's a
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: really good corner. I think he's a safety that can
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: cover in the slot. But he was targeted a lot
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: in that game, didn't play that well. But going back to,
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: you know, is this team smart enough? Yeah, they make
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: some decisions that just seems like they don't understand the
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: game as much. And I've thought about that in the
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: past when I've heard players say, like, you know, they
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: don't watch football, you know, the Monday night game going on.
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: I mean, they're, they're obviously going to be playing in
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: this one, but you know, do they, do they go
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: and watch Monday night football? If it's just the regular
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: Sunday game, do they watch the Thursday night game? Are
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: they turning it on? And I don't think a lot
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: of them are. And I, I just, I just wonder when,
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: I mean, you watch football enough, you kind of understand
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: the end of the half and, and, and, you know,
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: just situational football and stuff. And if you're not, if
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: you're not, you know, living, breathing, doing it all the time,
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know if they, if they
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: really are. So I think, I think that that's a
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: big factor. I really do. I think there are some players.
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: I keep going back to that play that happened with revel,
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: you know, on the punt return. That was such a
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: big play. And I don't know if that's coaching or
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: that's players or both, but I mean, the ball's on
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: the four yard line. You're down by 13. You're going
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: to get the ball at midfield here. So, And your
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: guy can fair catch it. He's not going to get
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: blown up. So you don't even have to block the guy.
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: Don't even hold him. Don't do anything. Don't get a
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: penalty here because you have to make sure and protect
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: your field position. But they go out and revel hold
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: to the guy, and it turns into a 19-yard penalty,
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: really from back to the 31-yard line. And it's a 67-yard,
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: 65-yard difference in field position from the 4-yard line back
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: to your own 31. And the Cowboys didn't end up
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: doing anything or scoring there. When if you get it
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: at midfield, you're probably a first down away from at
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: least getting a field goal. You need more than that,
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: but at least... playing into a position where maybe it's
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: four down territory at that point. So little things like
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: that where the coach has to say, under no circumstance
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: are we holding here because we just can't. You can't
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: do it. I'm not worried about trying to get a punt.
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: This is our backup punt returner anyways. Mingo's not taking
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: it to the house, so don't do anything to screw
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: it up. So it's just little things like that that
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: I don't know if they do a great job of.
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: All right. Let us go back to our phone line.
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: Steve in New York is next.
• 28:13
  Speaker 10: Hey, Nick. What's up, man?
• 28:14
  Speaker 9: It's been a while.
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it has been. How are you doing?
• 28:16
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 28:17
  Speaker 7: All right.
• 28:17
  Speaker 15: I've been listening. Yeah, I mean, that play, I mean,
• 28:22
  Speaker 15: I'm watching the game, and I'm like, he's kicking from
• 28:24
  Speaker 15: the back of his end zone.
• 28:25
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 28:25
  Speaker 15: And we're starting to drive on the 30. When's the last,
• 28:29
  Speaker 15: whatever it was, yeah. When is the last time that happened?
• 28:31
  Speaker 15: I mean, that's just, that was awful. That was awful.
• 28:34
  Speaker 15: But I will be one of the positive calls today.
• 28:36
  Speaker 15: You know, do I have problems? I have issues with
• 28:40
  Speaker 15: coaching and decision-making.
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: Absolutely.
• 28:42
  Speaker 15: I'm not the front of the line with that. But
• 28:44
  Speaker 15: I'm hearing people talk about fans. You know, oh, why
• 28:48
  Speaker 15: win the division? It's going to be a one-and-done because
• 28:51
  Speaker 15: that's what we do.
• 28:52
  Speaker 4: Okay?
• 28:53
  Speaker 5: That's what we do.
• 28:54
  Speaker 6: We're fans.
• 28:54
  Speaker 15: I want to win the division. I don't care if we,
• 28:57
  Speaker 15: you know, oh, you're going to play the 49ers and
• 29:00
  Speaker 15: get knocked out.
• 29:00
  Speaker 7: Fine.
• 29:00
  Speaker 8: Let me get there.
• 29:01
  Speaker 12: Win the division.
• 29:03
  Speaker 15: I don't care that Jalen Hurts is out. I don't
• 29:06
  Speaker 15: care that Dart is out. I don't care if Barkley
• 29:08
  Speaker 15: plays or not because you know what? When Dak wasn't playing,
• 29:11
  Speaker 15: nobody cared. When our guys were out, nobody cared. So
• 29:15
  Speaker 15: I'm not buying that. Just win games because I'll tell
• 29:18
  Speaker 15: you what, I know we lost because I had to
• 29:20
  Speaker 15: stop myself because I said, how bad are things going
• 29:22
  Speaker 15: to be if we lose to a backup quarterback? And
• 29:24
  Speaker 15: then I kind of stopped myself thinking, yeah.
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: We already did that.
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: We've been there.
• 29:30
  Speaker 11: We've been there.
• 29:31
  Speaker 15: But this is Philly. This is different. And And I
• 29:33
  Speaker 15: know Philly is playing shorthanded. They're not, you know, they
• 29:37
  Speaker 15: have a lot of guys out, but this is from almost...
• 29:39
  Speaker 15: 50 years of fandom. When teams see the star on
• 29:45
  Speaker 15: the helmet, add prime time into it. They're going to
• 29:50
  Speaker 15: play a game. They're going to play a game. I
• 29:52
  Speaker 15: don't care who's in or out.
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they're definitely going to bring it, and it's a
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: big game. I mean, it's a big game for them,
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: big game for the Cowboys. This is kind of one
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: of those swing games of, like, what is your season
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: going to be like? Because, I mean, it's one game,
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: but when you're looking at that record of 2-5 and 3-4,
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: it does seem, you know, way different than just one
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: game from 2-5 to 3-4. So, yeah, this will be big.
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: Let's see who's preparing right now. To get there, yeah.
• 30:26
  Speaker 15: And look at the division. I was just telling someone
• 30:28
  Speaker 15: that the first-place team in the division is a 10.5-point
• 30:33
  Speaker 15: underdog against a team who was winless. And I'm thinking
• 30:37
  Speaker 15: to myself, yeah, okay, that's pretty scary. I mean, this
• 30:40
  Speaker 15: division is there. I mean, again, I don't– you know what?
• 30:46
  Speaker 15: Eight or nine wins might win this division.
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: Are you talking about the Giants' 10-point underdogs at Houston?
• 30:51
  Speaker 10: Yeah. Check it out.
• 30:53
  Speaker 15: I'm telling you, isn't that crazy?
• 30:57
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 30:57
  Speaker 11: That's nuts.
• 30:58
  Speaker 15: I mean, listen, I'm not a gambler, but I'm just
• 30:59
  Speaker 15: saying that's something where you're like, wow, they're in first place.
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: And I'm not either.
• 31:03
  Speaker 15: What's that?
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: And I'm not either, as I make sure we don't
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: gamble at all.
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no.
• 31:10
  Speaker 12: No, we don't.
• 31:11
  Speaker 4: Ten and a half points.
• 31:12
  Speaker 15: But I'm just saying that was crazy.
• 31:13
  Speaker 11: If you did.
• 31:14
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 31:15
  Speaker 9: Yeah, exactly.
• 31:16
  Speaker 15: My last thing, real quick, because you know I've got
• 31:18
  Speaker 15: to do a trivia.
• 31:19
  Speaker 5: Obscure.
• 31:19
  Speaker 15: Remember, 2010, Romo was knocked out. I'm not sure if
• 31:22
  Speaker 15: he got this one before, but the two starting quarterbacks
• 31:25
  Speaker 15: in that game for the Cowboys and the Eagles. The
• 31:27
  Speaker 15: Eagles had already clinched the division.
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: Wait, wait. Hold on, hold on. 2010. Oh, you're saying
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: Romo had been knocked out earlier in the season?
• 31:38
  Speaker 15: Yeah, he had been knocked out, and the Eagles had
• 31:40
  Speaker 15: already been had already clinched whatever they did. So, yeah.
• 31:45
  Speaker 12: They're both from Texas.
• 31:46
  Speaker 15: They're both from the state of Texas.
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: Is it– oh, is it– it's not Kevin Cobb, was it?
• 31:55
  Speaker 6: Wow.
• 31:56
  Speaker 4: That's one of them.
• 31:57
  Speaker 11: You've got the harder one.
• 31:58
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: It's Stephen McGee.
• 32:00
  Speaker 15: Stephen McGee.
• 32:01
  Speaker 11: You're the best, Nick.
• 32:01
  Speaker 15: Thank you for the time, man.
• 32:02
  Speaker 9: All right.
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: Thanks. Appreciate it. Kevin Cobb. The only reason I got
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: that one is because– thanks for the call. Stephen McGee? Yeah, yeah.
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: The reason why I kind of, like, he's on the
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: radar is because, yes, he is Stephenville. He went to
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: the University of Houston. And when I wrote the book
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: for Art Brawls, he was the guy that I interviewed
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: a little bit for it. So, shoot, I might even
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: have his phone number or whatever. I know I have
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: Case Keenum's number. I was looking at that the other day.
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: I was like, I'm going to call him to text
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: him and say, hey, good luck. I mean, Case Keenum's
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: played on every team but the Cowboys, so... It feels like,
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: but yeah, Kevin, that, that was just, I wouldn't have
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: guessed that if he didn't say Texas, I was like, Oh,
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: Texas guy, you know? And then, um, I was kind
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: of thinking Nick Foles, that's too, too early for him. But, um, and, and,
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: you know, we go, we go into Philly. Why did
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: I watch this ESPN like, um, documentary on the Philly
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: Philly special? Like I sat and watched that whole thing.
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: And I was like, why am I watching this? How
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: the Eagles drew up this play for a touchdown and
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: win it and the history of it and the history
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: of Philly and the Rocky Steps and all this kind
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: of stuff. That's probably why, because I'm a sucker for
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: the Rocky Steps. All right, let's take one more call
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: before we go to break. Let's take a break. Oh,
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: take a break? Yeah, take a break. All right, we'll
• 33:28

• 35:09
  Speaker 2: All right, let's go. We had Steve in New York.
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: Let's go to Steve in Washington, Newport, Washington.
• 35:15
  Speaker 15: Good morning, Nick.
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: What's up?
• 35:18
  Speaker 4: How are you doing?
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: I'm good.
• 35:20
  Speaker 4: Are you?
• 35:21
  Speaker 6: Good, good.
• 35:23
  Speaker 5: I got to tell you, though, I'm a little on
• 35:26
  Speaker 5: the downer side, I think, in this game coming up.
• 35:30
  Speaker 5: I just, I don't, I have just seen past history
• 35:33
  Speaker 5: of us. I don't, I don't know who the quarterback
• 35:37
  Speaker 5: is for Philadelphia. I don't really care his name. I
• 35:41
  Speaker 5: just know that past history tells us that because of
• 35:45
  Speaker 5: the lack of pass rush, he's going to have his
• 35:48
  Speaker 5: best game ever. And that's kind of sad to think that,
• 35:54
  Speaker 5: but I've just seen it in too many games before. our,
• 36:00
  Speaker 5: our lack of creativity in regards to blitzing, uh, you know,
• 36:04
  Speaker 5: a quarterback that should be panicking in the, in the
• 36:09
  Speaker 5: position just doesn't seem to ever happen with us against us. Uh,
• 36:14
  Speaker 5: the other thing on creativity side, I would love to see, uh,
• 36:21
  Speaker 5: a hitch and pitch between, between Pickens and, and, uh,
• 36:26
  Speaker 5: I think that would just be an amazing thing to
• 36:29
  Speaker 5: see between the two of us. But I'm just not
• 36:32
  Speaker 5: seeing any creativity on the offensive plays. The last game
• 36:38
  Speaker 5: with all the record number of passes, I didn't see
• 36:42
  Speaker 5: any inside slants to them or any way that either
• 36:49
  Speaker 5: they're not getting open or they're just not finding a
• 36:51
  Speaker 5: way to get open. And I don't know, again, if
• 36:54
  Speaker 5: that's coaching or not. The other comparison that I have is, God,
• 37:00
  Speaker 5: I look at the 49ers. And on paper, position by position,
• 37:06
  Speaker 5: I think we have a better roster than they do
• 37:09
  Speaker 5: on offense. Position by position.
• 37:13
  Speaker 10: 49ers? The 49ers.
• 37:16
  Speaker 5: And I just see just the opposite result. And again,
• 37:20
  Speaker 5: it goes back to, you know, is it the players
• 37:23
  Speaker 5: just not performing to their potential or is it the coaching?
• 37:28
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: No, I mean, you're not wrong. You're not wrong there.
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: It's both. It's OK if it's both. You know, it's OK.
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's it's it's one of those things, you
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: know what I mean? Like if I if I went
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: out and tried to play basketball, you know, is it
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: did I not play well because I'm old or is
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: it because I'm just not that athletic? It could be both.
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: I mean, it doesn't have to just be one thing.
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: And I think this is one of those situations where
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: it's not just one thing. I personally believe, do you
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: have another thing, Steve? I got to get the line clear.
• 37:58
  Speaker 10: No, that's good.
• 37:59
  Speaker 5: I'll listen offline.
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: Steve, that's it. I mean, you make good points. And
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: I really believe that this is something I've been kind
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: of thinking of the last maybe year or so. And
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: I know that they have a lot of really good
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: players and receivers and talent. And I don't disagree with
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: what you're saying, even with the 49ers. But when I
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: think about what really makes a good team, a good offense,
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: and I think about, like, you know, who have been
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: the teams, like, dynasty-type teams, you know? Go back the
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: last 15 years. I mean, what team was like the
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: dynasty of it? Well, the Patriots. Okay. You know, and
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: then now recently, like the Chiefs have been really, really good.
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: And then, you know, 49ers have been there as far.
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: They haven't won Super Bowl, obviously, but they've been. They've
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: been really good. And I'm starting to think that the
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: next time a really, really good tight end comes through
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: in the first round, I think that's something the Cowboys
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: need to look at, a first– a tight end. Because
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: I think a tight end actually changes what you're trying
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: to do on offense more than really any other position.
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: It gives you more flexibility. And I'm not talking about
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: one that's a Kyle Pitts that's really just the receiver.
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: That's big. You know, I'm talking about a real tight
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: end that, that can block for you, but also, you know, can,
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: can go and go 40, 50 yards. I think Kittle
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: has that for San Francisco. I think Kelsey obviously had
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: that Kansas city. And then of course, Gronk the same way. And,
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: and here in Dallas, I think Witten provided that for
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: a lot, a lot of years that now they needed
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: more than that. But Witten was a big part. I mean,
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: they needed a guy like that. So I think a
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: tight end is something this team is lacking. I think
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: it lacks right now. You throw it, you know, like
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: we've said it all week, 55 times, you know, in
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: a game, and you can't get any deep shots, but
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: yet they're blitzing. Then the middle of the field has
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: got to be there to be worked, and it's just
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: not happening. It's not happening with the receivers. It's certainly
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: not happening with the tight ends either. All right, let's
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: see if I can get another call. Chris, if you've
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: got one, patch him through. J.R. and Avondale. Let's do it.
• 40:24
  Speaker 9: J.R. Hey, Nick. How are you doing?
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: Good. You?
• 40:28
  Speaker 9: I'm getting ready for this big procedure next week. Oh, okay.
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: Well, good luck to you on that.
• 40:33
  Speaker 9: I know. I'll be back whenever I can. I'm talking
• 40:37
  Speaker 9: to you all. First of all, I was going to
• 40:40
  Speaker 9: talk about getting a tight end, so thank you for
• 40:42
  Speaker 9: bringing that up and talking about it. I watched the
• 40:46
  Speaker 9: games with the Eagles last year, and when I was coaching,
• 40:49
  Speaker 9: I was always looking for matchups, matchups that we could win.
• 40:53
  Speaker 9: And I don't think the Eagles' defensive backfield matches up
• 40:57
  Speaker 9: very well with Pickens and Lamp. And I think it's important.
• 41:01
  Speaker 9: I know it's been talked about that Pickens gets involved
• 41:04
  Speaker 9: early in this game.
• 41:05
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 41:06
  Speaker 9: I think it changes the entire game. And I don't
• 41:09
  Speaker 9: think if you look at the catches he made against
• 41:13
  Speaker 9: those defensive backs, They can't cover him. That's just how
• 41:17
  Speaker 9: it is. It's a matchup problem for them. So I
• 41:19
  Speaker 9: want to see them get them involved early and often,
• 41:22
  Speaker 9: and I think then Javante Williams can do his thing.
• 41:27
  Speaker 9: As far as defense goes, I was watching the Tampa
• 41:29
  Speaker 9: Bay game. The first time I kind of saw 57,
• 41:32
  Speaker 9: I was like, who's that? And it's like, oh, that's Lawrence.
• 41:36
  Speaker 9: The first time I really saw him make a difference
• 41:39
  Speaker 9: or even show up on the screen, from my perspective.
• 41:43
  Speaker 9: And why Powell and why.
• 41:46
  Speaker 7: He was 30 yards downfield, coming in the end zone
• 41:49
  Speaker 7: still amazes me that he can make that play. But
• 41:53
  Speaker 7: with him coming more to the forefront, and Von Miller,
• 41:57
  Speaker 7: I'm excited about Von Miller. Is Von Miller staying on
• 42:00
  Speaker 7: this team because they're really not using him? And I'm
• 42:03
  Speaker 7: disappointed about that because I was looking forward to– him
• 42:08
  Speaker 7: do some things for the Cowboys.
• 42:09
  Speaker 9: So I have a question for you. And then, um, uh,
• 42:13
  Speaker 9: my prediction is I think it's going to be a
• 42:15
  Speaker 9: close game because it always is. And I, I think
• 42:18
  Speaker 9: the Cowboys are going to win, uh, 28, 24. And
• 42:22
  Speaker 9: that's all I got. I'll let somebody else call.
• 42:24
  Speaker 3: Thanks.
• 42:25
  Speaker 9: Hopefully talk to you soon.
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: Appreciate it. Um, thanks for the call, Jerry. Good luck
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: to you on your procedure that you're talking about next week.
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: If we don't hear from you, uh, Thoughts and prayers
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: for you on that. All right, let's see if we
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: can get another call in here. But I'll address these points.
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: Interesting that you said that about the defensive backs for Philly.
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: I actually had a conversation with one of our scouts,
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: and we were sort of talking about that, the Blitz,
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: and teams that are really dialing up the Blitz. And
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: kind of what was brought to my attention was just
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: that you can Blitz all day. And we said this yesterday,
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: Cowboys Blitz, and they don't. they don't blitz well when they,
• 43:06
  Speaker 2: when they do, you know, blitz just because you blitz
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: doesn't mean that you're always going to get home. So
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: it's kind of how you do it, when you do it,
• 43:11
  Speaker 2: how you disguise it, all that good stuff. Who's blitzing,
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: you know, how good are they individually? And so I,
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: I really believe this, that, that if, if, and I
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: don't know if it's Philly, but I'm just saying, if, if,
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: if some teams are going to go out and say, that's,
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: this is what we're going to do. We're going to
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: go and blitz all the time on Dak. Like, Dak's
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: going to have a 400-yard game coming up here. I mean,
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: he's going to have one of those games where you're like,
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: all right, you can do this because you're just not
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: equipped for it. I mean, Tampa Bay, I mean, Bowles
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: is one of the best of all time at doing it,
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: and Gannon's been really good, and he's really been good
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: against Dak, too, over the years. And the Packers can
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: cover on the back end. They did a great job
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: with it, but not everybody– is equipped to do it
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: the same. And so it can't just be that philosophy
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: of saying, let's do it. This is like Houston a
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: couple weeks ago. Everybody's running the ball against the Cowboys.
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: Everyone's running it. Derrick Henry goes and runs, and everybody's
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: running the ball. Well, then Houston comes, and they can't
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: run it. They tried, but Woody Marks is not getting
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: it done. And Montgomery and those guys aren't getting it done.
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: So you've got to have the personnel to do it.
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: So yes, Blitzing the Cowboys will work at times, but
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: I also believe that there's going to be some times,
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: and it could be this week, that they're like, all right,
• 44:35
  Speaker 2: that didn't work out for you too well because Dak
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: has seen a blitz or two before. You may not
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: be surprised to see that because they didn't play that well,
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: but they'll get it blocked up, and you want to
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: keep doing that. It's like pick your poison. I think
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: there's going to be a big game there. It's just
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: like anything you do when you gamble. You gamble, and
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: you keep hitting, and you keep hitting, and you keep
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: betting on the underdog all the time. You're going to
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: lose some. All right, let's go. Last caller. We've got
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: Randy in Texarkana. Perfect way to end it. Randy, what's up?
• 45:06
  Speaker 8: What's up? Hey, if I bought you a T-shirt that says,
• 45:09
  Speaker 8: don't bro me, man, would you wear it? Dude, I
• 45:13
  Speaker 8: about spit my drink out yesterday when I was listening
• 45:16
  Speaker 8: to the show, and you said, don't bro me.
• 45:19
  Speaker 4: What?
• 45:21
  Speaker 8: When that caller, that very first caller that ran on,
• 45:24
  Speaker 8: he sounds like he's from Philadelphia or wherever, and he
• 45:27
  Speaker 8: called you. Dude, that's like the third time you've done that.
• 45:30
  Speaker 8: I think there was a kid.
• 45:31
  Speaker 15: In your past.
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: I totally misunderstood what you said. I got you now.
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: You said, don't bro me.
• 45:37
  Speaker 8: Don't bro me. Yeah, that's like the third time you've
• 45:40
  Speaker 8: done that, and I about spit my drink out. And
• 45:44
  Speaker 8: I was like, okay, there must have been some little
• 45:46
  Speaker 8: punk here. What do you think he said?
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: Shut up, Beam.
• 45:49
  Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah.
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: It's Randy, okay? I mean, who knows? I mean, what Randy?
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: I mean, there needs to be a disclaimer and everything.
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: So when you called and said that, I don't know
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: what you.
• 46:00
  Speaker 8: Oh it was awesome that was awesome yeah there's some
• 46:03
  Speaker 8: kid from your past that used to bro you a
• 46:05
  Speaker 8: lot that you didn't like or something because i've heard
• 46:07
  Speaker 8: you do that multiple times now and i was cracking
• 46:10
  Speaker 8: up yeah anyway well my kids do it now my
• 46:14
  Speaker 8: kid my you know my six-year-old daughter oh yeah don't
• 46:16
  Speaker 8: yeah i'm not your bro all right or your dog
• 46:19
  Speaker 8: or yeah uh-huh i got you i feel that one
• 46:22
  Speaker 8: all right so fun one and a real one all
• 46:25
  Speaker 8: right fun one is All right, when they're drafting, especially
• 46:29
  Speaker 8: in your division, say you're real strong in receivers, the
• 46:32
  Speaker 8: other teams want to draft good cornerbacks to kind of
• 46:35
  Speaker 8: counteract what you've done, so on and so forth. Would
• 46:39
  Speaker 8: it not benefit them? I know they'll never do this.
• 46:42
  Speaker 8: This is just me running at the mouth and having fun.
• 46:44
  Speaker 8: But would it not benefit the Cowboys to go up
• 46:47
  Speaker 8: in the storage bin and pull out some of the
• 46:51
  Speaker 8: old tapes back when we had Emmitt and Mike and
• 46:54
  Speaker 8: all them and we knew the formula was right? and
• 46:57
  Speaker 8: go back to an old-school style offense to play. I mean,
• 47:01
  Speaker 8: you don't have to play it all the way through,
• 47:02
  Speaker 8: but just some of the plays because the teams are
• 47:06
  Speaker 8: all built nowadays for speed, all these crazy routes, doing
• 47:12
  Speaker 8: all this stuff, and you throw out two receivers, one
• 47:14
  Speaker 8: tight end, a fullback, and a running back, they're not
• 47:18
  Speaker 8: going to have the players to match that, and they're
• 47:20
  Speaker 8: not going to be– ready for that style of play
• 47:24
  Speaker 8: because that's not what they're practicing. Wouldn't that throw a
• 47:26
  Speaker 8: little bit of a wrench in the deal? It's just
• 47:30
  Speaker 8: food for thought. And I'll let you talk about that
• 47:32
  Speaker 8: later if you feel like it. If not, you don't
• 47:33
  Speaker 8: have to.
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: I don't think that you're far off from that. I
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: do think the league kind of goes in cycles like that.
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: Because everyone was playing defense that way, then it became
• 47:44
  Speaker 2: more of a passing league and all that. And I
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: do think that it'll be a time where it kind
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: of shifts back. And there's some certain teams... I know Harbaugh,
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: he wants to play that way. And some of the
• 47:55
  Speaker 2: AFC North, not the Bengals, but some of the other
• 47:58
  Speaker 2: teams kind of try to play it that way. A
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: lot of it depends on your quarterback. And again, not
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: to keep harping on this, but it depends on your
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: tight end. I think your tight end can really help
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: play that kind of way because if you want to
• 48:09
  Speaker 2: play that type of football and then spread it out
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: based off the personnel, is your tight end somebody that
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: can go do that? So he's got to be on
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: the line. He's got to be able to.
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: You know, go down the field and coverage. So I,
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: I think a lot of it depends on the running
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: back you have the tight end. And of course, you know,
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: your offensive line, all of it really.
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 48:31
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 48:32
  Speaker 8: And then one last one. All right. And I'll leave
• 48:35
  Speaker 8: it with this and see what you think. So at
• 48:37
  Speaker 8: some point, okay, let's just say everybody keeps saying, Oh,
• 48:40
  Speaker 8: we'll beat the Eagles. They're having all these problems. What
• 48:42
  Speaker 8: if we make that third string quarterback, a pro bowler again,
• 48:46
  Speaker 8: and we don't win this game. At what point do
• 48:50
  Speaker 8: we look at ourselves, because I think we're too close
• 48:53
  Speaker 8: to it, and we think we're superstars because of all
• 48:55
  Speaker 8: the talent we have, but at what point do we
• 48:57
  Speaker 8: think we're the crappy team? What if we start selling
• 49:01
  Speaker 8: off all of our people in trades and just clean
• 49:04
  Speaker 8: out and get a whole bunch of dang picks for
• 49:06
  Speaker 8: the next two years? I don't know what the drafts
• 49:08
  Speaker 8: are looking like coming up. I don't know if they're
• 49:10
  Speaker 8: going to be good drafts or not, but at what
• 49:12
  Speaker 8: point do we think this ain't working? let's stir up
• 49:16
  Speaker 8: the pot Because, I mean, we do have the players
• 49:19
  Speaker 8: on our team that demand some first round. We could reload.
• 49:25
  Speaker 8: Let's just– I mean, because if it– I hate to
• 49:29
  Speaker 8: get people fired, but if it keeps going downhill, the
• 49:32
  Speaker 8: chances of Shoddy making it another year are slim. We
• 49:35
  Speaker 8: know how the business is. And if you bring in
• 49:38
  Speaker 8: a new coach, that new coach has got a pocket
• 49:40
  Speaker 8: full of first-round picks. Let him rebuild, and let's start fresh.
• 49:44
  Speaker 8: I mean, because we keep doing the same thing over
• 49:46
  Speaker 8: and over every year, and we're not getting anywhere with it.
• 49:49
  Speaker 7: How it is.
• 49:50
  Speaker 8: So, yeah, anyway, all right, man. Love you guys. Y'all
• 49:53
  Speaker 8: hang in there, and we'll talk to you on the
• 49:56
  Speaker 8: next go-around.
• 49:57
  Speaker 10: We'll see you.
• 49:57
  Speaker 14: All right, Randy.
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: Appreciate it. Yeah, this is the end of the show,
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: so it's probably not the best time to go into
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: the conversation of when do they become sellers. Um, but
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: you know, not, not thinking about that right, right now.
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: This is a, you know, we can talk about it
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: maybe some tomorrow, but big game, you know, for the
• 50:17
  Speaker 2: Cowboys against the Eagles. This, this is one that for
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: both teams, kind of a swing game where you'll, you'll
• 50:21
  Speaker 2: find out kind of what you are and who you are, uh,
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: in a game like this, especially with the Eagles. So
• 50:26
  Speaker 2: banged up the Cowboys go and don't take care of
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: business and lose this game. then where does that leave them?
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: And you're not wrong, Randy, to think that way, to think,
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: all right, maybe the Cowboys go and maybe they're the
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: team that trades some of these guys. We know who
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: the players are. We don't have to talk about them.
• 50:43
  Speaker 2: We know the guys that are looking for contracts and
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: the guys that might have a little value to them.
• 50:48
  Speaker 2: But I think right now the focus is go to
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: the Philly, try to win this game, try to get
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: this thing turned around, try to win your division, play
• 50:54
  Speaker 2: a home game and get into the dance and see
• 50:56
  Speaker 2: what happens. All right, guys, we'll do it again tomorrow.
• 50:58
  Speaker 2: So for Chris Beam, I'm Nick Eatman. See you next
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: time on Cowboys Storyline.
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: This has been a production of DallasCowboys.com and the Dallas
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: Cowboys Football Club. How about this, Cowboys?
• 51:08
  Speaker 5: Yeah!
