  Speaker 4: trying to get this thing turned around, but this last weekend.
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: How awesome that was. So you guys to see a
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: bunch of former players, so real quick though, and this
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: is a fan show. We'll get to some callers, but
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: I want to ask you what are you seeing from
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: this football team right now? I mean, their defense is
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: not defense that you you remember seeing when you played,
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: but they're trying.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: To play much better, you know, And it's almost like
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: week to week but in figuring out what's happening with
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: eber Flus's defense, but it seemed last week they played
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: with a lot more intensity. They played with a lot
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: more understanding of what their roles were.
• 1:51
  Speaker 5: And you know, I couldn't I was at the game.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: I couldn't really see all the coverages and what they
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: were exact, you know, exactly what they're running. I they're
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: run his own or I know they played a lot
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: more manned. I'm used to seeing them play, but I
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: just saw them play with more discipline than this game.
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: And maybe it had.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Something to do with you know, look, the Commanders didn't
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: have their top guys out there, but there's no excuse.
• 2:13
  Speaker 5: I mean, this team came out and played extremely well,
• 2:16
  Speaker 5: ran to the ball.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: And one thing I've known about this Eberflus defense, even
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: when they're not playing well and they gave them giving
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: up big plays, they still play hard.
• 2:25
  Speaker 5: I mean they're still trying to run to the ball.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: They may get out physical or whatnot, but they're still
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: running down the field and trying to make plays and
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: guys are trying to scramble around and get there.
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: But this past.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: Weekend, uh, they had the They played by far their
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: best defensive game that I've seen this this year in
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: a discipline, not giving up the big play, keeping things
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: in front of them, and then had to turnover with
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: Bland with the interception return, which was which is awesome, man.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: But you know, defensively is going to be a work
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: in progress every single week. Offensively, man, you know what
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: you got. I mean, this is this is fun. It's
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: fun to watch, it really is. It's fun to watch
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: Dak and the wide receivers in the offensive line get
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: after people. Man.
• 3:06
  Speaker 5: It's it's been a joy to watch.
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: I mean, having a dog at ride receiver is great,
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: but two dogs.
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: Two of them, man, and so you got two ones.
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: It's hard.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: Look, I've been on the on the defensive side of
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: the ball when you have a Randy Moss or you
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: have a guy or a Jerry Rice. But you know,
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: it was a time when I remember playing San Francisco
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: and they had Jerry Rice and t O on the
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: other side and was an upcoming dog at the same time,
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: so you knew they had number one, and it's hard
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: to double. It's hard to double one guy and then
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: you have to play another guy one on one, or
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: you try to double two guys and then you leave
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: yourself open to the run game.
• 3:43
  Speaker 5: You know, it's it's it's a Viking.
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Chris Carter.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And I would say this, look, I think this
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: this this due was better than that Moss Carter duo.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: I mean because Chris Carter was gonna run the underneath routs.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: He wasn't gonna take you deep, take the top off
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: the defense. That both of these guys, right, you can
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: take the top off the defense. Both of these guys
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: can run the mid range routes and when they get
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: the ball in their hand.
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: They're dangerous.
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: All right, Let's let's get to some callers quickly before
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: we get into we'll talk about the weekend and just
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: how awesome that was. Let's go to it. This is
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: a new caller for us, Charlie. He's in Lancaster, California. Charlie.

• 4:30
  Speaker 6: of E since the break. I would follow you. I
• 4:31
  Speaker 6: think you're like the man when it comes to h
• 4:34
  Speaker 6: the cowboys and reporting on them, So I always follow
• 4:36
  Speaker 6: your stuff.
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: Man, A thank you, you're embarrassing me. Thanks you for
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: the Woodie we do have. Yeah, first time calling, Charlie,
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: you you got, you got lucky. Your first time. Your
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: first call is with Woody. You don't have to ask
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: me anything. You can ask Woody what what do you got?
• 4:51
  Speaker 6: Yeah? Okay, you know, I know you guys talked about
• 4:52
  Speaker 6: the defense and Woody as a as a forward player.
• 4:55
  Speaker 6: I know when you look at the guys, you see
• 4:57
  Speaker 6: how hard you're playing and you're analyzing that. I truly
• 5:00
  Speaker 6: believe what the help they got coming do you see
• 5:03
  Speaker 6: that spirit in them? You know, since you're a defensive guy,
• 5:05
  Speaker 6: do you see that spirit of them coming together and
• 5:07
  Speaker 6: really truly, you know, getting to the middle of the
• 5:09
  Speaker 6: back of the defense. I believe in them. I think
• 5:11
  Speaker 6: they're going to be able to get to that point.
• 5:13
  Speaker 6: And I see it. I see them coming together and
• 5:15
  Speaker 6: you know who got them back. So it's very exciting.
• 5:18
  Speaker 6: I appreciate you being a fan of you man, and
• 5:20
  Speaker 6: you guys have a good day.
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: Thank you so much. Calls back Charlie. I know we
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: have to be quick, but it's good to hear from you.
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: What do you think they got this? They got the
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: dog in them on defense?
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: Well, you look, you talk about the dog in defense
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: that I've played on some great defensive teams, and talent
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: is it shows itself right, So talent's got to pop
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: in aggressiveness and.
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: Knowing what you're doing.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: I don't know if they have the personnel just yet
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: to be that dog that you're expecting, like a shutdown defense.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: That's probably not gonna happen. Let's just be real about that.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: I mean, they're not going to be a shut down defense.
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: But can they can they maintain and not give up
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: the big place. I think this defense has those capabilities,
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: but I think there's got to You got to give
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: ebra Flu some credit for he's had a lot of criticism.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: He's had to deal with a team that's, you know,
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: a new system that's come in is deep that the
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: personnel is just getting to know his schemes. He's not
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: put he hasn't implemented everything. They just came off the
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: Zimmers scheme. So there are some growing pains that are
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: going going along with us. And you just lost your
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: best player on the defensive side.
• 6:19
  Speaker 5: Yeah that's I mean, look, let's not forget you.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: You just lost your best football player on the defensive ball,
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: the guy who's made the most impact in the last
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: four or five years. And now you're adjusting to all
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: those things. So they're gonna have to adjust to this.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: It's not gonna this is not an overnight situation.
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: I know, but but the first time we've had you
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: on here.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Look, he's a phenomenal player football player. I just watched
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: him Sunday night Arizona. I guess Arizona he is. He
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: is probably the best pass rusher. If I think he's
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: the best pass rusher in football hands down, just one
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: on one.
• 6:54
  Speaker 5: Uh, I still thought that the Cowboys.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: You know, look, I felt like the Cowboys got down
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: the road in these negotiations and something happened that turned
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: them off. And I'm not sure what happened, and I
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: still don't know. I do think that he's he's in
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: a better place. He's happy and where he at. The
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: Cowboys are happy where they are, and they got picks
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: for it. I wish they would have got more, you know,
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: the trade partner was a little different. Yeah, I wish
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: it would have been, you know, the Carolina Panthers or
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: something like that. But at the same time, I think
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: both parties are happy now where they where they are.
• 7:28
  Speaker 5: But yeah, I thought it was a it was an okay.
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: I mean, you know, if for you as a veteran,
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: if you if you saw one of your teammates laying
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: down on the table in the middle of a preseason, yeah,
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: that's problem.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there were a lot of those problems, right, So
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: I knew there were some incidents that probably took place
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: behind the scenes.
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: And I won't even get into those.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: I won't even get into those because that's that's a
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: locker room deal and you got to handle that. But
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: if the character is not there and you don't you
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: don't like that character.
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: Then yeah, I mean then it's time to go.

  Speaker 4: All right back here on Cowboys Storyline. I've got Darren
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: Woodson in the house, So excited for that Woodie. We
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: talked in this last segment about what this Cowboy team
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: needs to do, and last week was a great win.
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: For them before the game. You guys, it was forty
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: two former players. They called it homecoming. I mean, why
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: not high school college? Everyone else does it cow Boys homecoming?
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: Forty two players? You had to play? It's five they
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: went five years or more. They weren't going to go
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: six years or more. And then Charles Haley was like, hello,
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: five years, you know what, Okay, five years or or more.
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: I think they should make a ring of honor exemption
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: for whatever. But how fun was that? And who did
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: you see that you hadn't seen them forever? And that
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: it was just so great to catch.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: Up with, uh man, so many guys man that hadn't
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: seen you know, Roger has been a mentor of mine,
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: not only in mostly on the business side of things.
• 10:43

• 10:45
  Speaker 2: And Drew and Bob Runick was I mean, Bob's been
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: fantastic for me in the business world as well. So

• 13:12
  Speaker 4: much better. He took the intent because he would talk
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: so much trash, right, the dvs would get so pissed.
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: Next thing, you know, you have a great practice in
• 13:19
  Speaker 4: the Yeah, and he would do that sounds familiar.
• 13:22
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he's got him another eighty eight.
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: My god, I played all right, let's go speaking of
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: Let's go to Mike in Birmingham, England. Mike, I know
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: you've been waiting. Thanks for waiting.
• 13:33
  Speaker 11: Oh, that's not a problem at all. It's great to
• 13:36
  Speaker 11: listen to you both chatting and how are you both doing?
• 13:38
  Speaker 5: Great?
• 13:39
  Speaker 11: Good, excellent. Well, we're known for our royal family over
• 13:43
  Speaker 11: here and it's great to be talking to two members
• 13:45
  Speaker 11: of Cowboys royalty today. Three let's throw Chris into that
• 13:48
  Speaker 11: so real honor to the to the Speaking to Woody
• 13:53
  Speaker 11: so on Sunday, I was really really pleased for Matt
• 13:57
  Speaker 11: Eberflu's One of the features of this season has been
• 14:00
  Speaker 11: on the telly. They keep cutting the camera to Ebasloose
• 14:04
  Speaker 11: when things are going badly, and they cut to him
• 14:07
  Speaker 11: on Sunday when things are going rather better, and his
• 14:10
  Speaker 11: expression is exactly the same. He's not someone who kicks
• 14:12
  Speaker 11: water bottles around when it's going badly. He's not someone
• 14:15
  Speaker 11: who's jumping around. But nick I just wandered behind the scenes.
• 14:19
  Speaker 11: On a personal level, how do you think he's been
• 14:21
  Speaker 11: coping with the challenges this year? And wood he from
• 14:25
  Speaker 11: a player's point of view, how hard is it when
• 14:28
  Speaker 11: there's such a disparity between what the offense and defense
• 14:32
  Speaker 11: are able to do. How hard is it to kind
• 14:34
  Speaker 11: of keep that squad unity and togetherness?
• 14:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, all right, thank you for the call, Mike.
• 14:40
  Speaker 5: That's great. That's a great question. Have you had you
• 14:44
  Speaker 5: oh yeah, oh yeah, absolutely.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: When the defense has played well in the office hasn't
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: and vice versa, you know, you have to stay connected
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: within the locker room. It's obvious that there's going to
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: be some issues like when the defense is playing or
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: the office is playing the way they're playing right now
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: and the defense can't carry us weight, you'll see a
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: lot of you know, hymns and halls on the sideline,
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: and you know we gave them in the first down.
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: We can't get on the field as an offense. You know,
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: we're giving up these big plays. We always got to match,
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: you know. You you get a lot of that going on.
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: We're people, We're no different, you know, it's just a
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: microcosm of society, right, So you got to handle that.
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: The leaders really have to stand up in these situations.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: The leaders have to in that locker room have to
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: diffuse that. Guys like Dak are going to have to
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: defuse any of those situations. And I heard after the
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: game what Dak said. They asked him a direct question
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: about the defense and how they played, and he just
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: he jumped right on it. Man, he said, man, we cheering.
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: We're cheering those guys on. You know, there are teammates
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: that you know, he said all the right things. And
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: that's the way you have to act because you're gonna
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: have some some situations. There's gonna be some some animosity there.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: They have diffused it for now, but again this changed.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: This does I mean, this happens both ways now. I
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: mean you can you can look here in the next
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: few weeks and watch offense who puts up six points
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: in the defense.
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: Who played shut down? We'll go back way back and.
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: Forth, especially with the weather turning, and sometimes there'll be
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: some games old weather that all of a sudden it's
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: just tougher to move the ball. So all right, let's
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: go to Michael and Bowling Green, Kentucky. Michael, what's up?
• 16:13
  Speaker 12: Oh lord, I'm talking to our NFL legend here.
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, let's already should already be. What do you got, Mike?
• 16:26
  Speaker 12: I just got one quick question because I know people
• 16:29
  Speaker 12: are dying to get on.
• 16:30
  Speaker 13: Uh.
• 16:31
  Speaker 12: The Cowboys they against Washington, they played a lot of
• 16:37
  Speaker 12: man and blitzed a lot, a lot more than half.
• 16:40
  Speaker 12: Do you think that was designed for that game or
• 16:43
  Speaker 12: do you think that will continue this season?
• 16:46
  Speaker 5: Good question? I think I think it depends on the personnel. Honestly.
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: Look, you know you saw the I want to call
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: them the risk and about you saw the commanders, and
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: they were they were depleted at the wide receiver position.
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: So if you feel like you have a good matchups,
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: and you know you like your corners matchup against their
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: guys in one on one situation, that's a game time
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: not a game time decision, but it's like a game
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: plan decision to say, Okay, yeah, they don't have a
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: guy that can really hurt us in certain in these situations.
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: Now you play this week. Who they have this week?
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: They got Denver with Sutton. Yeah on the outside, that's
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: going to be a different game. Do you leave your
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: guys wanting one on one with with a Suddon out there,
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: and and I think Ebau is gonna have to he's
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: gonna have to his hands full again this week. As
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: far as what kind of game plan, I'm not gonna
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: They're very good this week. When they kept it simple,
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: we used to call it keeping it simple stupid. You
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: go play Manda man. Everybody in the world knows how
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: to play one on one man to man, and that's
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: keeping it simple stupid. But they did bring some pressure
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: behind it for the first time, and I really, I
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: really enjoyed to see them, you know, put those corners
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: out there on the edge by themselves one on one
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: and get some pressure on the quarterback.
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: You know, we talk about the fact of you don't
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: have micro We know that they have to generate a
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: little bit moressing and by doing that, it's easier to
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: play man. When when you're blitzing.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, it's a lot easier to play man when
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: you're blitzing, but at the same time, you.
• 18:05
  Speaker 5: Gotta get there. Yeah, you can't allow guys.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: You can blitz all you want, but if you can't
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: get to the quarterback and you can't cover on the
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: outside and you're getting double moved because the pressure isn't
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: there and you're thinking that the ball needs to come out,
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: There's there's some times I'm serious, like when you're as
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: a defensive back, do you want to play man to man? Absolutely,
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: because simplify some certain things, but that pass us needs
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: to get there and if it doesn't, then that you
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: get exposed on the back end.
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: And also when the playing zone, when you play zone,
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: you got to have some great safety play. Yeah, and
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: I've said this before in my life of working in
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: front of the Cowboys, is they missed number twenty eight
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: at safety. Like I've said that several times, you know,
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: referring to you mostly now they do miss Mollie Cooker
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: as well. Yeah, miss twenty eight. I don't know why
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: they haven't returned it, but that's okay. But but still,
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: you know, they don't retire numbers. But still, but twenty
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: eight Milik Cooker. I think that you know, he's been
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: he's kind of a quarterback back there as well. Obviously
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: they miss him as well.
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: They do, and it's you know, when you're the quarterback
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: of that defense getting guys lined up again.
• 19:06
  Speaker 5: It goes back to the minimal mistakes. You know, one thing.
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: Jimmy Johnson used to always says, Look, I can get
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: over the fact that physically you may get beat physically,
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: the guy may be faster than you, may be stronger,
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: and you're not gonna win those one on one battles.
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: But he would never do it. Was no excuse for
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: giving a blowing a coverage. There was zero excuse for
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: blowing the coverage. And that's that's the key to great defenses.
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: When you guys are all connected, you understand where you're
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: supposed to be, and that's how you play good zone coverage.
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: You can pass off guys, you can have your eyes
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: on the quarterback and hopefully the pass rush gets there.
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: But that's how you play good zoned coverage is when
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: you have a guy in two safeties who can get
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: guys lined up.
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: All right, All right, well we're going to take another

  Speaker 16: Really heck.
• 23:20
  Speaker 13: Yeah, so that was awesome seeing you on TV the
• 23:23
  Speaker 13: other day too. Over on the sideline in New Jersey.
• 23:25
  Speaker 13: I like that.
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, man, you know what, Randy, we had a great time,
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: and it's been a long time since all the guys
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: have gotten together. But to sit there and watch the
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: game and then you know what's crazy is you play
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: this game. I played this game for thirteen twelve years
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: here in the in the NFL, and you know, all
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: those years in college. But you get on the sideline
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: and you've been away from it for a while, and
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: then you see these guys walk out and you're like, damn,
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: they're huge, man, Like why, I mean, I played this game,
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: but like you really have to reset yourself in mind
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: to think, man, this was these guy's big.
• 23:57
  Speaker 5: They're hitting hard and you know they're getting after it,
• 23:59
  Speaker 5: and uh.
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: They just felt like they were that much bigger than
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: than I remember.
• 24:04
  Speaker 13: Well that that's kind of crazy that you bring that up,
• 24:06
  Speaker 13: because that was gonna be my question for you, and
• 24:09
  Speaker 13: if you if you got something off the top of
• 24:11
  Speaker 13: your head there to tell us a quick little story
• 24:13
  Speaker 13: about is there. I know you was a good hitter.
• 24:16
  Speaker 13: I like how you hit. But was there a player
• 24:19
  Speaker 13: in your day that when you saw him you were like, uh,
• 24:23
  Speaker 13: I'm gonna do one of these deon?
• 24:25
  Speaker 5: No, man, you know why, let me tell you why. Like,
• 24:28
  Speaker 5: of course you saw.
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: There were guys that I saw and I was like, man,
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: that's a They had a running back in that land.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: I can't remember his name, big boy man. He's tall
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: to sixty three or so. He was just running over people. No, no,
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: he was like he was the backup. He was number
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: forty something.
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: I remember.
• 24:44
  Speaker 13: He was probably a little crazy too.
• 24:47
  Speaker 5: Said he was a huge.
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: He's a huge if I saw him hit John Lynch
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: in a game, and I was like, goodness, lord, not
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: I mean on his butt, but I was, you know,
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: I saw him. And there were a few other Brandon Jacob's.
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: I think it was coming in right when I was
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: going out. But there are some big big run Rodney
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: Hampton was a big running back. But here's the thing.
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: When you when you play a guy and you play
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: the position that I played at the safety position. You
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: can't have that mentality of back down, like there's no
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: back down in you, like there is a there's a
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: mindset that you have because not only are you having
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: to do your job, but there's fifty three other dudes
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: who are watching you do your job, Like I'm serious,

  Speaker 4: You know, some of the some of the places where
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: you're around, where you lived, and some of the people
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: that you kind of ran around with or whatever, and
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: so being scared wasn't something that do a lot. So
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: when it's almost like when you got to NFL, it's like, no,
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: I'll show you what.
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I think there's always fear, like
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: there's there's a misnomer there.
• 26:20
  Speaker 5: I think there's always some type of doubt in you.
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: Like how the question is how do you overcome the doubt?
• 26:27
  Speaker 5: Like I firmly believed in.
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: Myself, Like I believed in my abilities until this day.
• 26:34
  Speaker 5: Even in the business world.
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: Man, I believe in myself because I do what I
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: do do well is I prepare well. And when you
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: can prepare the right way and firmly believe in your
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: skill set, then that's you. You become dangerous. You really
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: become dangerous. And the great ones that I've watched over
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: the years of Dion Sanders, man there was true belief
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: in his capabilities, Like he walked on the field knowing
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: he was the guy. Michael Urban walked on the field
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: knowing he was a guy. And I firmly felt like
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: when I walked on that football field, man, we could
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: I could be as nice as I wanted to be
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: in the locker room and have a fun and all that.
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: But when you cross that line, dude, it's it is
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: a totally different game. It's yeah, could you know here's
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: the thing. People again, they count on you. Your teammates
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: are counting on you to be that dog. So be
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: that dog.
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: Hey, I remember a time, you know when you weren't
• 27:24
  Speaker 4: so nice in the locker room either. Man, I was
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: always nice in the locker really when the dominoes were out.
• 27:30
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, when I was different. Man, that was.
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: A quick story around that stuff. The team wasn't good,
• 27:37
  Speaker 4: the two thousand and two teams, it wasn't wasn't that
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: good and had a chance to be, uh, just just
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: competitive all the every week. And I remember Woody saying, hey,
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: we got to get because a lot of people were
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: playing dominoes and cards in there. We got to get
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: the dominoes out of the locker room. Well, the problem
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: was the guy that was playing the dominoes was Emmit Smith.
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: He was he was the main guy, so he was
• 28:00
  Speaker 4: I remember that being kind of tricky because you're trying
• 28:02
  Speaker 4: to do your thing being lead. But it was like,
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: you know, well now you got.
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: It, and then it understood. I mean he absolutely understood
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: where we were. I mean it was just a conversation
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: and hey, look, I think every locker room is different,
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: but there's a point, a time and point when you
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: got to feel it, like, you know, where are we
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: in this season, you know, things were going good. Hey,
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: I don't care guys playing much dominards they want, but
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: the reality is things weren't going good, and you know,
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: we were missing assignments and thinking guys weren't showing up late,
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: and we weren't as a discipline of the team. So
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: I think that's when you got to, you know, really
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: get your mindset back on what's important and what's important.
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: Wasn't you know, the card games and dominant? What was
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: important was the football?
• 28:43
  Speaker 4: All right, let's go back to the phone lines Robbie
• 28:45
  Speaker 4: and Koco Beach, Florida. Robbie, what's up, Nick?
• 28:48
  Speaker 6: What's up?
• 28:48
  Speaker 17: Mister Woodson?
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: How you doing?
• 28:49
  Speaker 5: Rob?
• 28:51
  Speaker 17: I am outstanding man. Every time I've called, I never
• 28:53
  Speaker 17: I never got you. I did ask Nick a couple
• 28:56
  Speaker 17: a year ago, maybe if I, if I, if you,
• 29:00
  Speaker 17: what should I call you? And he said, call him
• 29:01
  Speaker 17: Darren or call him Woody. That's how he'd introduced himself.
• 29:04
  Speaker 17: And I was like, that's nice to know, man, So
• 29:06
  Speaker 17: appreciate that.
• 29:08
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Yeah, I'm man. That's my dad's man.
• 29:15
  Speaker 17: Two questions. One, you guys probably can't answer. And if
• 29:19
  Speaker 17: even if you know, you probably aren't allowed because the
• 29:22
  Speaker 17: pr what's going on with Trayvon?
• 29:25
  Speaker 5: Two?
• 29:26
  Speaker 17: How did you two become friends? And I'll take it
• 29:28
  Speaker 17: off the air and listen and God bless you and
• 29:30
  Speaker 17: think and I really hope you make it this year.
• 29:32
  Speaker 17: You know you deserve it.
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: Thanks brother, thank you, Uh Trayvon. I mean, honestly, they're
• 29:41
  Speaker 4: really not saying, what's what's going on? He had he
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: got a concussion at home? What the story is? Which
• 29:48
  Speaker 4: of which of the four stories should I believe? And
• 29:51
  Speaker 4: I don't know, doesn't really matter what matters. I mean,
• 29:55
  Speaker 4: what really matters is is he going to be able
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: to play, you know, this week or next week? And
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: that's something they still don't know the answer to. They're frustrated.
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: They're frustrated because there are players, not just players, there's people.
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: Think about your own office, think about people you go
• 30:12
  Speaker 4: to school with. If it ain't one thing, it's another, right, Okay,
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: it always is, And that those people are frustrating because
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: you know they're talented, but it's just hard to trust
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: on and off the field. Then I don't know how
• 30:25
  Speaker 4: to say it.
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: I don't either, and I don't know the situation. I'll
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: just call it what it is. I don't know the situation. No,
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: I didn't play this week, and I heard it was concussion.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: That's as much as I actually know about the situation.
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: Now I can tell you this, it ain't good.
• 30:39
  Speaker 5: Whatever it is.
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: He's not here at the facility, and I'm not sure
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: if he showed up at the facility. If he has
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: not shown up at the facility, then it is definitely
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: not good.
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: Showed up yesterday. He showed up yesterday, but it's still
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: I don't think he was one hundred percent cleared concussion
• 30:55
  Speaker 4: protocol and all that. I think they sent him home.
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: From what I was being told there the other question,
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: you know, I don't know. I mean, I don't know
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: if you'd say we're like great friends or whatever. I
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: don't know. Every time he mf's me, every time he
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: sees me, that's my friend. But this is what I'll
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: say about about Darren. I'll answer this part. I was,
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: oh god. It was probably second or third year working
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: for the Cowboys, might have been two thousand and one,
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: and it was a training camp. Joe Avazana was singing
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: up at some bar in which it's all falls and
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: I remember talking to you there. You know, it was
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: just who was just one night out and wichitall whatever.
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: And I remember talking to you and you were asking
• 31:40
  Speaker 4: questions like so you worked for the team or your
• 31:42
  Speaker 4: media or whatever, and I was kind of explaining a
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: little bit no player did. No player cares. Players don't
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: really know the difference between your mediator in the locker room,
• 31:50
  Speaker 4: you're not you're with us. Who knows who cares? You
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: were kind of asking questions, and I just remember that
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: you always were that way, where like you always treated
• 31:58
  Speaker 4: every person like a person, not just well he's media
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: or whatever. You just treat people the way.
• 32:04
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we're regular folks. I just played a game.
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's no different than and I guess in
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: my life, I've always been inquisitive too, man, And that's
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: the reason why I'm in the business, why I'm in
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: the commercial real estate, is that I'm I've always been
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: inquisitive to understand who's who am I working with one.
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: I'm going to see you every day, and you know,
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: I'm going to have my good days in my bad days,
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: just like anyone else. Just I'm no different than anyone else.
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: But I just want to know and get to know
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: people that I'm going to see every single day.
• 32:36
  Speaker 5: Now why wouldn't I want to know?
• 32:38
  Speaker 4: Well, you're just the most humble, humble superstar player that
• 32:42
  Speaker 4: I've ever seen. I mean seriously, because and I joke
• 32:45
  Speaker 4: about it all the time. Is that like you kind
• 32:47
  Speaker 4: of know the lay of the land here. There's one
• 32:50
  Speaker 4: side of the building is all cowboys and then the
• 32:53
  Speaker 4: other side is commercial businesses. And your office is over there,
• 32:57
  Speaker 4: was over there right still It is okay because I
• 32:59

• 33:03
  Speaker 4: he can go anywhere he wants and he knows it,
• 33:05

• 34:16
  Speaker 7: Hey?
• 34:17
  Speaker 6: Don't let them talk. Don't let them talk me up. Man,
• 34:18
  Speaker 6: I'm not a big guy.
• 34:20
  Speaker 4: Nah, you're you're the king of this medium, though you
• 34:23
  Speaker 4: know you are.
• 34:24
  Speaker 18: It's just great angles, great angles. But hey, first of all,
• 34:28
  Speaker 18: Woody Man, thank you so much for coming again on
• 34:31
  Speaker 18: the show. The YouTube chats blowing up.
• 34:33
  Speaker 13: We all love you, man.
• 34:33
  Speaker 18: We appreciate you. And you know you have a whole
• 34:36
  Speaker 18: army of storyliners in your corner. I'm not sure what
• 34:39
  Speaker 18: that means, but just so you know that you know
• 34:42
  Speaker 18: that's the.
• 34:42
  Speaker 5: Truth, you know.
• 34:43
  Speaker 18: And and yes, sir, yes, sir, my question for you,
• 34:46
  Speaker 18: and I know we touched on it a little bit,
• 34:48
  Speaker 18: and this is something that I talked to you before,
• 34:50
  Speaker 18: and I mentioned that I played safety like yourself. I
• 34:53
  Speaker 18: was very close to going the NFL, except I was
• 34:55
  Speaker 18: five to six, you know, so I.
• 34:56
  Speaker 6: Didn't really make it. But my question for you is is.
• 34:59
  Speaker 18: With with transitioning to his zone defense. I was trying
• 35:04
  Speaker 18: to explain to a lot of people and maybe I'm wrong,
• 35:06
  Speaker 18: and I'm not too proud to be to be corrected.
• 35:09
  Speaker 18: So when I was explaining it to people, I was
• 35:12
  Speaker 18: just talking about the eye discipline, you know, zone eyes
• 35:14
  Speaker 18: versus man eyes, and being able to see wide receivers
• 35:17
  Speaker 18: coming into your zone, wide receivers leaving your zone, communicating
• 35:20
  Speaker 18: when someone's leaving your zone into somebody else's zone, things
• 35:23
  Speaker 18: like that versus a man eyes. When you're kind of
• 35:24
  Speaker 18: watching the wide receiver's hips, you're trying to stay on
• 35:27
  Speaker 18: their hips, watching their eyes, washing their hands can you
• 35:29
  Speaker 18: kind of explain the difference between the two for maybe
• 35:31
  Speaker 18: linebackers and defensive backs and kind of explain why it's
• 35:34
  Speaker 18: stricty transitioning even for professionals. I'll take your call off.
• 35:38
  Speaker 18: I'll take your answer off the call.
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: Thank you have so much, Thank you perfect. I mean
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: you just described as such. I think you know better
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: than anybody. When you're playing man to man, that's your
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: guy and you're locked in on his hips. You're trying
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: to figure out where he's going to break. Is it
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: inside or is it outside. You're doing the count in
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: your head like you're covering him. Man, demand one thousand
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: and one, one thousand and two. That ball better be
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: out at one one thousand and three, right, So you're
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: trying to anticipate breaks. That is Manda, Man, he is
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: your guy. You get beat. That's on you zone. Totally
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: different zone is My eyes are more focused on the
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: quarterback and being able to pass off players. When players
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: in my zone and he interns another one, you pass
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: them off. You stay stay putt with My eyes are
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: directly trying to focus on the quarterback at all time.
• 36:28
  Speaker 4: How much did Dion ever play zone?
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: Not much, dude, you know what I came in the league.
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: We played two coverages before Dion even got here. We
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: played what we call Cover four, which is like kind
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: of man zone, a little bit, a little mix. Uh,
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: and then we played Cover one. Yeah, we didn't play
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: Cover two. I didn't play Cover two until years the
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: year seven or eight in my in my career. Dion
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: came in and we try to play a little Cover
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: four and didn't work. We had to play Manda Man
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: and that's what we were, a Manda Man team.
• 36:58
  Speaker 5: That's funny.
• 37:00
  Speaker 4: Dean could play man and zone at the same time
• 37:03
  Speaker 4: because he would bait his receiving Yeah he would. He
• 37:07
  Speaker 4: would like, you know, trail they so he can get
• 37:10
  Speaker 4: a play.
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so he could get a play. I mean he
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: used to watch this guy. I mean, man, just you
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: talk about just being a phenomenal you know, God made
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: Deon Sanders play cornerback.
• 37:21
  Speaker 5: Yeah he did. He's like, hey, man, Jesu, this is
• 37:23
  Speaker 5: what you do in baseball and baseball right.
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: But but at the cornerback position, he had the best hands.
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: And you always measure an athlete by great hands, great feet.
• 37:32
  Speaker 5: Uh.
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: And people don't realize how strong he was at the
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: line of scrimmage. I mean, Dion was a strong football player,
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: but when he played the game, he was smart. He
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: you know, study his butt off and do all the
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: little things. But he was gifted. He had a gift
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: to play that position. But you know, watching him prepare
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: week in and week out, man, it was phenomenal. I
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: was one of those guys that used to just admire
• 37:55

• 37:57

  Speaker 16: Yes, sir, so, I actually so the question occup at
• 40:35
  Speaker 16: light today. The question that I asked Nick yesterday was
• 40:38
  Speaker 16: over the the past weekend with the homecoming game and everything.
• 40:41
  Speaker 16: Who is somebody that you really like seeing in a
• 40:43
  Speaker 16: good conversation you had. And also if you got any
• 40:46
  Speaker 16: Doll Parcels or Antonio Bryant stories, I think those would
• 40:48
  Speaker 16: be cool to hear. I've read the book.
• 40:54
  Speaker 14: Yeah, yeah, that.
• 40:56
  Speaker 5: Was a great one.
• 40:57
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: You know, he's crazy. You forget, I forget about the story.
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: And I just saw ab about three four months ago
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: at the barbershop. He's doing well doing the straight it
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: owns a little business. He's doing well, very well. So
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: I was there when when that happened, when the when
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: uh Antonio threw his jersey, And it was crazy because
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: he threw his jersey at Coach Parcels and and I
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: don't think he I don't think he meant to throw
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: it at coach parts. I think he threw it, meant
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: to throw it and act and it hit Parcels. And
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: Parcels will tell you. He used to always tell me.
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: He says, hey, Woodson, I got one fight left to me,
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: and I'm saving it for your ass. That's what he'd
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: always say to me. Right, But Parcels is, you know,
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: he's a Jersey guy. He's tough. He got that you know,
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: a little tough man about him. And he had no
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: back down, he had zero. Like he got so old pissed.
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: I mean the jersey hit him. I think I think
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: Ab wasn't throwing a jersey at him. I think he
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: was trying to throw it and it hit him and
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: they had to pull Parcels charged him, they had to
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: pull him back. But it was it was funny and
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: it all happened. It was one reason why it happened.
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: It was because of Keishawn Johnson. Oh great, was the
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: reason why it happened. Ab was getting all the routes
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: on scout team. Everybo he ran a nine route, he
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: had to come back as a starter and and then
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: run a route again. And Keith Shan and some of
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: the older guys didn't want to get those routes, and
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: and Ab was walking back, running back, and he was like, man,
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: somebody else get me, and those guys didn't come in.
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: And then that's when he got pissed off, and and
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: just just the snowball from there.
• 42:22
  Speaker 5: But I look, man, Ab was a dude. Man he was.
• 42:25

  Speaker 4: All right back here on Cowboys storyline presented by Gillette. Boy,
• 44:33
  Speaker 4: it was great to get Darren Woodson on the show today.
• 44:36
  Speaker 4: He's got so much, so much wisdom, so much uh uh.
• 44:40
  Speaker 4: He's great with philosophy when it comes to football, but
• 44:42
  Speaker 4: also he breaking it down x's and those talking about
• 44:45
  Speaker 4: zone defenses and things like that. So so great. Uh,
• 44:48
  Speaker 4: it's good to hear from you guys as well. We
• 44:50
  Speaker 4: had Uh we had a few calls uh today, I
• 44:54
  Speaker 4: know not as many because Darren, you know, was here
• 44:56
  Speaker 4: and we wanted to hear a lot from him. Big
• 45:01
  Speaker 4: game this week Denver, I mean this is where the
• 45:03
  Speaker 4: Cowboys can can really kind of take advantage of the schedule. Uh,
• 45:08
  Speaker 4: these are winnable games. I mean Denver's they won eight
• 45:10
  Speaker 4: in a row at home. They're five and two this year.
• 45:13
  Speaker 4: If you see that game last week against the Giants,
• 45:15
  Speaker 4: should have lost. Everyone knows that. But but they're winning.
• 45:18
  Speaker 4: They're finding a way to win games. They had a
• 45:20
  Speaker 4: lot of close games this year and so that they're
• 45:23
  Speaker 4: winning some of them. Some of them they haven't. But
• 45:25
  Speaker 4: but this it'll be it'll be that kind of game
• 45:27
  Speaker 4: I would imagine. I think the Cowboys can can score
• 45:30
  Speaker 4: some points on anybody. They're just gonna have to get
• 45:32
  Speaker 4: get stops, figure out a way to get stops. It'll
• 45:35
  Speaker 4: be a lot tougher to cover those receivers than it
• 45:37
  Speaker 4: was against Washington. They got more talent there in Denver.
• 45:41
  Speaker 4: But you know, bow Knicks is a runner. He's a
• 45:44
  Speaker 4: guy that you that you certainly have to to, you know,
• 45:46
  Speaker 4: watch when he gets out of the backfield. And also
• 45:48
  Speaker 4: they have designed runs for him, so it'll you know,
• 45:52
  Speaker 4: they haven't won. I was going to say this to
• 45:53
  Speaker 4: to Woody. They haven't won in Denver since Darren Woodson
• 45:57
  Speaker 4: was a rookie nineteen ninety two. That's how long it's been.
• 46:01
  Speaker 4: Now we're talking about Darren going into the Hall of Fame.
• 46:04
  Speaker 4: But they haven't won since then, and so they haven't played.
• 46:09
  Speaker 4: Of course, they haven't play every year. They haven't won
• 46:11
  Speaker 4: at all since nineteen ninety five they beat Denver at home.
• 46:13
  Speaker 4: It's been thirty years. So then they've beaten the Broncos.
• 46:16
  Speaker 4: So maybe this will be the year to turn things around.
• 46:18
  Speaker 4: The Cowboys certainly need to figure out a way to
• 46:21
  Speaker 4: do that. See if they can get some defensive stops.
• 46:23
  Speaker 4: We'll see what's going on with tray Von Diggs. See
• 46:25
  Speaker 4: if he returns to practice this week. All right. For
• 46:28
  Speaker 4: Chris Beam, I'm Nick Eatman, and for Darren Woodson, been
• 46:31
  Speaker 4: a lot of fun here on Cowboys storyline. We'll see
• 46:34
  Speaker 4: you next time.
