• 0:23
  Speaker 1: I am Nick Eatman at his time to talk Cowboys football.
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: Give you guys an opportunity to talk Cowboys football. You
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: can call in on the show eight eight, eight, eight,
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: five five two to nine seven. Talk about this Cowboys team,
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: upcoming game against the Detroit Lions, and also this last
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: game against Pittsburgh. It was wild and crazy. Uh, definitely
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: worth looking back and talking about that one, and also
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: the fact that you know, we're just where this Cowboys
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: team is right now after five games of the season.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: It's uh, I say it all the time. It's it's
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: a roller coaster. It's up, it's down, and that's what
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: this season has been. They won the first one against Cleveland,
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: looked like this was going to be one of those
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: years where you know, they had a really dominant team,
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: especially on defense, and then two games hit New Orleans
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: and Baltimore humbled a lot of people, the team, fans
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: all that and wondering now what this team is really about.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: We're starting to look at the draft show, blah blah blah.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: And then comes the Giants game, tough heart, heart, fought win.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: And then Pittsburgh was was you know, another one of
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: those type of games. And so you know, another three
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: and Ozero on the road and oh and two at
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: home and here comes the Lions come to town this weekend.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: Should be a lot of fun to talk about that.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: All right, let's get going here on the phone lines.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: Our first caller is from Oklahoma, Curtis and Ada, Oklahoma. Curtis,
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Good morning. Are you doing excellent?
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: Man?
• 1:50
  Speaker 6: How are you great?
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: What's up with you?
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: That's good man. I just thought that that was a
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: crucial win. You know, I'm the guy that called in
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: a couple of weeks ago and was like, well, maybe
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: we kind of tank, maybe we try to trade, and
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: you know, see where we're at at the end of
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: the season. But that's just because of where we were
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: in the season and looking at our schedule, and I mean,
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: our schedule is brutal, but you know we got to
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: I mean, if you look at the three possibilities if
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: we if we lose the next two games, we're kind
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: of back down. We've lost two conference games. If we
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: go one in one. Okay, we're right there in the middle.
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: But if we can find a way to win these
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: next two games, man, I mean that's almost I'm back
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: to We're going to go to the super Bowl type
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: of vibes, you know. So just really important games coming up,
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: especially the forty nine Ers haven't been what they've been previously,
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: so maybe this might be one of your good shots
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: after the bye week to really, you know, close the
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: case on that and get you a win in the
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: win column, because you know, the last couple of years,
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: it's just been kind of brutal going up against the
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: boom box forty nine Ers. But a couple of things
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: that I wanted to talk about about the Steelers game
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: is ive seen what's called like the orbit motion. Do
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: you know what that is?
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: That guy goes back like.
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he goes in motion and like doubles back in
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: this big orbiting satellite route. And I really love that
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: we've incorporated that motion, especially when you talk about guys
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: like Camante Turpin, because you get to see who's following
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: them and then when they double back, they have like
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: a full head of steam when the balls hiked, and
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: it gives us a lot of speed out there on
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: the edge, and those short passes kind of become an
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: extension of the running game, and I think we really
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: need that. I know Rico Daddle has come on in
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: these last couple of weeks. I have them on my
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: fantasy squad, and I can see the points that he's generating,
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: and so I know that he's putting in production also
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: receiving touchdowns out of the backfield.
• 3:51
  Speaker 7: So I really like that.
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: And I think our defense is starting to kind of
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: figure it out with the getting the rush up front
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: and how to work the zone. We worked man for
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: so long, and maybe it's because Trayvon was the only
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: one that really carried over from that system, and so
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: maybe these other guys getting in there has lent to that.
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: But I thought there was a few opportunities where we
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: were good at the run, but we could have been
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: even better. I thought we had Harris and Fields in
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: the backfield and they were just really wiggly, which you
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: know a lot of starters are, But it could have
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: been an even better day for the run. So I'm
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: just excited man to look forward to these next couple
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: of games and hopefully we can get two wins and
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: everybody be flying high after that.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: All right, sounds good. Let's keep it going out and
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: see a lot of questions there from Curis just some comments,
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: which is great. Let's go. Let's go to Lesser in Minnesota.
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: Hey, Nick, how you doing this morning?
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: One?
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: What's up? How are you?
• 4:51
  Speaker 8: Hey?
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: I was the one that called in last week and
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: said we need to have a good offensive and defensive
• 4:58
  Speaker 5: line to build a team from there. But I know
• 5:00
  Speaker 5: we're going already. So I got one question for you
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: before I give my little take here.
• 5:08
  Speaker 8: Have you heard.
• 5:08
  Speaker 5: Anything about awesome A Richards. What's going on with him?
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: He's he's the backup tackle and he played as ay.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: They brought him in as a tackle eligible extra blocker,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: so he's kind of your swing tackle, but he's not.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: It definitely seems like him playing left tackle and keeping
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Tyler Smith at guard is not a better option than
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: moving Tyler Smith to left tackle and TJ. Bassett guard.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: So maybe where he is, his bass is a better
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: guard than he is a tackle. And it seems like
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: Tyler Smith can play both at the high level, which
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: should not be overlooked. How great and important that is. Sorry, Lester,
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: you got another comment?
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I was just thinking about putting Austin Richard at
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: right tackle and taking Still out because still I don't
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: know what's going on with on my saying he's doing
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: a bad job. But he's on the run block, he's great,
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: but on the past block he gets beat. And I
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: know he had an injury a couple of times a
• 6:17
  Speaker 5: couple of years ago. I'm sorry, but he just seems
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: like he's not holding up to pass very well. Pass block. Also,
• 6:26
  Speaker 5: I was I said the score for the Pittsburgh game
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: would be twenty one to seventeen. It was twenty to seventeen,
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: so I was close. I've been watching that a long time,
• 6:36
  Speaker 5: Like I said, all my family from Pittsburgh, so I
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: know where they usually comes to. We need to win
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: the next two games. I think we should keep running
• 6:44
  Speaker 5: the ball man, because the line was better with Bad
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: at guard and Tyler at left tackle, and I would
• 6:53
  Speaker 5: put Austin Richard over there if he's ready. I'm not
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: sure if he's ready, but I know he can pass
• 6:58
  Speaker 5: block better than Steel and then I'll hang up the rip.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, this is what this show's all about.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: Give a fans an opportunity to throw in their opinions
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: on how they see things. We don't have to agree,
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: and uh, this is not one where I agree. I
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: do not think that Austin Richards is as good a
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: blocker as Terrence Steele a pass run anything. Honestly, I
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: don't think that that's the case. Now, that's nothing against him.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: He's a young developing player that hasn't gotten a lot
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: of opportunity. Terrence Steele was a young lineman at the
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: same kind of same spot. Now. I mean, remember, Terren
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: Steele was undrafted. Austin Richards was fifth round pick. After
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: his first year, even in his second year, there wasn't
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: a lot of people saying how Terrence Steele was going
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: to be this great tackle. Well, he kept getting better
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: any better because he had they had to They didn't
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: have a lot of choices that he had to play,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: and that helped him. And he got a huge contract.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: And you know that this is this is a guy
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: that they they've committed some money to, so they're not
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: they're not taking him out. Yeah, he gives up some
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: some some plays. I mean they they do. I mean
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: they that's that's what happens. I mean, look look at
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: the guys that they've gone up against here and and
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: you know, if he's getting beat by t. J. Watt,
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: he's not the only one. I mean that that that
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: that happens again. I think Terrence Steel is a solid,
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: solid player. I don't think he's gonna be a Pro
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: Bowl type guy. I don't. I don't see that happening.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: But I do think he's he's a really good player,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: and he's getting better and better. And you know, I'm
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: not changing that for Awesome Richards. I mean, they just
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: made the point. I mean they needed a left tackle.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: Their left tackle went down in the game. They moved
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: the guard out there. I think that just kind of
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: goes to show where things are with Awesome Richards. But
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: that's you know, that's fine. He's he's a he's ahead
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: of well, let's go, he's head of Josh Ball. He's
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: ahead of those guys. You know, he beat them out
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: as the swing tackle. But uh, I don't think he
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: was involved in their best options there. But he's still
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: they put him in for an extra blocker and he's
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: a young player needs to develop. I don't know about
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: changing him now for Terrence Still. I think you still
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: ride with Terrence Still. All right, let's go to Ali
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: and Florida.
• 9:12
  Speaker 9: Good morning, next, Good morning, how are you prey good buddy.

  Speaker 1: did credits to Chris Beam, the producer did a great job,
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: you know, another credit and thank you also to like that.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: I've always said this, this is this is how you
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: know you have a true friend. Okay, there's there's two things.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: When your team, when you're when you've got a team,
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: do your friends do they call you and say, you know, like,
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: are they rooting against you? Rooting against your team so
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: they can laugh and a kind of you know, give
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: you crap for it? Or do they root for your
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: team just for you? That's when you know a good
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: friend is and when I think about that, some of
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: my best friends, they they will text me. They don't
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: really you know, they don't love Arkansas Razorbacks, but but
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: they they they do because of me. That's what a
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: true friend is. Then you know you got the flip
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: side too. They the ones that that will text or call.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: But they better not text me because I don't handle
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: that well. Anyways, Thank you, Ali, And I will say
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: this about Chris Beam because I've had a few people
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: that have messaged me about this. I don't know if
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: you guys saw this. Okay, before the game on Sunday
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: Night football, I guess it's football in America. It was
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: before the game because it was during the delay they
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: put on the screen they put a tweet of mine.
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: I've never seen them do that before. I guess I
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: don't watch the show. I don't watch the pregame show,
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: but they put the tweet before the game. I tweeted
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: out a video of the players. The coaches were working
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: on wet ball tricks. They are grills. They put the
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: ball in the water and thrown it to the tight ends.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: Linda Wells was doing that, got the video, put it out,
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: said they're preparing for the rain. They put that on
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: the TV screen. I look at my phone. I've got
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: like twenty five messages like, oh my God, big time,
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: blah blah blah. Truth be told. That really wasn't even
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: my video. Chris took the video. Chris gave it to me.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: Knew I had a little bit more followers than him,
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: so he said, why don't you tweeted out? I tweeted
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: it out and it makes national TV where Jason Garrett
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: is talking about it. Ironically, my picture is so old
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: and outdated. I actually look like I have red hair.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: I actually look like Jason Garrett. Maybe it's time for
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: a change. There a lot of irony going on in that.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: So thank you Chris for picking me up yet again.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: All right, Zach in Atlanta?
• 13:21
  Speaker 7: Hey, what's up?
• 13:22
  Speaker 8: Nick?
• 13:22
  Speaker 7: How are you?
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: What's up?
• 13:23
  Speaker 8: Man?
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: How are you doing?
• 13:25
  Speaker 8: All right?
• 13:25
  Speaker 9: Man?
• 13:25
  Speaker 7: Spend I guess a week or two since I called in,
• 13:29
  Speaker 7: But Man, Sunday was fun, wasn't pretty. We talk about
• 13:34
  Speaker 7: the roller coaster analogy a lot, and man, this season
• 13:39
  Speaker 7: just seems like a roller coaster that You're thankful it
• 13:42
  Speaker 7: gets back to the station. You know, the wheels didn't
• 13:45
  Speaker 7: fall off completely. Nobody died maybe somebody threw up, but
• 13:50
  Speaker 7: it just seems like it's going to be that kind
• 13:52
  Speaker 7: of season. All the injuries, you know, and I feel
• 13:59
  Speaker 7: like this season and more than in recent memory, I'm
• 14:02
  Speaker 7: just saying, hey, you know, are we gonna be setting
• 14:06
  Speaker 7: the league on fire? Probably not, But a fun win
• 14:09
  Speaker 7: against the Steelers, all the drama at the end, you know,
• 14:13
  Speaker 7: Dak almost fumbling out of the end zone on the pylon.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: And then that you know, you know what that play
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: is not getting talked about, saying but if he if
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: that ball goes a couple of inches forward and hits
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: that pylon, game, you're right, Yeah, I mean, all.
• 14:30
  Speaker 7: Of the drama so it wouldn't be a Cowboys Steelers
• 14:33
  Speaker 7: game about it. But yeah, man, just just trying to
• 14:37
  Speaker 7: lean into the game to game approach and enjoying each
• 14:41
  Speaker 7: game because who knows how many more wins will have.
• 14:46
  Speaker 7: But uh, you know, if we can, if we can
• 14:48
  Speaker 7: build some character here, put together some strong performances and
• 14:52
  Speaker 7: and get some wins, you know, reinforcements are on the way.
• 14:55
  Speaker 7: We didn't lose tanker Micah for the season. Marshawn Neelan
• 14:58
  Speaker 7: looks like he's kind of con back in a few
• 15:01
  Speaker 7: weeks saying with Jaron Bland, you know, maybe maybe this
• 15:04
  Speaker 7: running game is finding its way. Maybe you know, we
• 15:08
  Speaker 7: have something in Tolbert and we're using turpin and you know,
• 15:12
  Speaker 7: maybe maybe we find enough to say, all right, now
• 15:15
  Speaker 7: when the other guys come back, we have a more
• 15:18
  Speaker 7: competitive team than we thought at the season starts.
• 15:21
  Speaker 10: So all right, that's about.
• 15:22
  Speaker 7: Saying and yes, sir. And then the last note I
• 15:27
  Speaker 7: have I like to kind of, you know, look at
• 15:29
  Speaker 7: who's played for the Cowboys and then our opponent. And
• 15:32
  Speaker 7: so looking back at Sunday against the Steelers, Chaz Green
• 15:37
  Speaker 7: did a stint on the Pittsburgh roster, and I'm just
• 15:41
  Speaker 7: curious what was that after game, like when he had
• 15:45
  Speaker 7: his performance against the Falcons, Like do you do you
• 15:48
  Speaker 7: approach the guy is nobody wants to talk to him.
• 15:51
  Speaker 7: Just curious about what that was like that fateful day.
• 15:55
  Speaker 7: And so with that, I'll hang out take care cool.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't think we'd talked about that when. But yeah,
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: we are going to go back to Atlanta here on
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: November the third, Zach. I would imagine you're going to
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: try to make your way there to the game. But
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: Chaz Green game, you know, we talked about that. That's
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: even been discussed as a potential documentary, not Chaz Green,
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: but a documentary on the Name game, the Jason Garrett game,
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: the Miles Austen game, the Emmett game that dware. Unfortunately
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: it goes the other way too, you know. I mean
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: there is the Chess Green game. What I remember about
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: that at the end of the game, and if you
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: don't remember, it was twenty seventeen. This seems too long
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: ago for that, but it was back there twenty eighteen
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: or nineteen against the Falcons, and he gave up like
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: seven sacks in the game to Adrian Clayborne's as name.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, it was unbelievable, and they kept they didn't
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: give him a lot of help. They should have. I
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: remember them. I remember him talking after the game, and
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: you know, this was a third round pick. They expected
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: much better things from didn't work out, of course. Yeah,
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: I know the game was like twenty seven to seven.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: I remember that. I can't remember the score that the year.
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: Maybe it's twenty twenty eighteen or seventeen, I don't know,
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: twenty seventeen. There you go, uh, Chaz Green game and
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: he's bounced around. I guess the league a little bit,
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: didn't didn't work out here. Let's hope for nothing like
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: that again. Ever, all right, and Deck would appreciate that.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: All right, Randy, and Texarkana is next.
• 17:34
  Speaker 11: Morning, nephew, how you doing good?
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: How are you Texa? Kana, Arkansas? I will point that
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: part out there.
• 17:40
  Speaker 11: You go, Well, I'm gonna take his noise. All It's
• 17:42
  Speaker 11: just either way, we're good.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: Oh Texas.
• 17:45
  Speaker 11: Yeah, I just have to live on Orchitoba, Texas. So observation.
• 17:50
  Speaker 8: All right.
• 17:51
  Speaker 11: I've heard coaches and players talk about this on defense,
• 17:54
  Speaker 11: and this goes to why the defense looked so good
• 17:57
  Speaker 11: against Pittsburgh. They were playing team defense. And what I
• 18:02
  Speaker 11: mean by that is when Michael Parsons is on the field,
• 18:06
  Speaker 11: they tend to plan their defense around him. They design
• 18:10
  Speaker 11: their defense around Michael, what they're going to do with him,
• 18:14
  Speaker 11: where they're going to line him on all that. Well,
• 18:16
  Speaker 11: if the offense figures him out and they take him
• 18:19
  Speaker 11: out of the game, that screws up the plan for
• 18:22
  Speaker 11: all the other guys, and it's almost like they're having
• 18:25
  Speaker 11: to wing it. I think they should not plan around
• 18:30
  Speaker 11: Mikey anymore, just play simple team defense and just let
• 18:34
  Speaker 11: him be a good player on that defense.
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: You get what I'm saying, kind of you're saying, don't
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: let him float.
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: Around, don't they?
• 18:47
  Speaker 11: No, it's not that. It's don't PenPoint him in the
• 18:50
  Speaker 11: plan of your defensive scheme, because if they if they
• 18:55
  Speaker 11: mess up that part of the defense, then it throws
• 18:58
  Speaker 11: off the rest of the defense. If they figure out
• 19:00
  Speaker 11: a way to take Maca out of the game, well
• 19:03
  Speaker 11: you've planned that particular defense for Mica and if they
• 19:07
  Speaker 11: take him out, well, then it blows the rest of him.
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 19:11
  Speaker 11: So if they'll just pretend like Maca is not Macy
• 19:15
  Speaker 11: anymore and just have a game plan across the board
• 19:19
  Speaker 11: defense like they did against Pittsburgh, and just let him
• 19:22
  Speaker 11: be a really good player on that defense, they may make.
• 19:27
  Speaker 11: You know, it may wind up being better.
• 19:29
  Speaker 9: I don't know.
• 19:29
  Speaker 11: There's just a thought I had.
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, comments, all right, Randy, Uh, anything else I have
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: a comment? Yeah, that's it, all right, We'll have a
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: good one.
• 19:42
  Speaker 9: Man.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: Always good to hear from you. They're in Texta, cana
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: It's where my mom lives. Shout out to her. Uh,
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: they're on Texas, Canada. I wouldn't I wouldn't be here
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: today if it wasn't for textacants for my mom and
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: dad both met there, so I have fond memories of
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: that place. Side Texas size, pretty cool, pretty cool place,
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: all right. I think there's two sides to that that
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: theory there that you're talking about, because on one hand,
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: you're just like, if they take Mike out, that messes
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: up the whole game plan. But also his versatility that
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: he has to be able to play, you know, to
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: go to flip sides and things like that where you're
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: talking about if they if they have a game plan
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: that's exotic, where he can do different things, it's a
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: lot harder for the teams to take him out of
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: the game plan because every single snap you have to
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: figure out where he is. Now, there's that side, there's
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: also TJ. Watt and Pittsburgh. He never changes sides really, actually,
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: you know what, that's not actually true. They used to
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: say that about him, But I saw him flipping all
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: over the place in that game. He usually doesn't. He
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: did though in this game. He was tough to stop.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: So I think that there's there's two ways. I think
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: I've always been told that you just don't do it
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: one way in the game. You just don't other than
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: play a quarterback. You don't you know, I don't rotate.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: But for the most part, you know, are they going
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: to blitz? Are they going to play zone? Are they
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: going to do this? Are they going to run outside?
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: Are they going to do go throw deep? Yes, you're
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: going to do all of that, but you're not only
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: going to do that. You have to mix it up
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: a little bit. Let's take one more call before we
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: could take a break. Here Doc in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
• 21:15
  Speaker 10: Hey, Nick, how you doing good?
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: How are you Doc?
• 21:18
  Speaker 10: Doing good? My son and I went to three and
• 21:21
  Speaker 10: oh this weekend we were at the Pittsburgh game. Awesome
• 21:24
  Speaker 10: and it was great. We wait out the rain delay
• 21:27
  Speaker 10: that and they were actually announcing on the weather that
• 21:30
  Speaker 10: it was going to be until midnight before they could
• 21:32
  Speaker 10: start it because of the lightning. I thank god that
• 21:34
  Speaker 10: didn't happen.
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: Thankfully.
• 21:36
  Speaker 10: It was a great game. Almost had a heart attack
• 21:39
  Speaker 10: when they had the fumble there at the end, but
• 21:43
  Speaker 10: great play by Dak to get back on it. But
• 21:46
  Speaker 10: I just said to myself, my question for you is
• 21:48
  Speaker 10: we brought back Zeke to be the short yardage goal
• 21:52
  Speaker 10: line first down guy. And I said to him, Why
• 21:55
  Speaker 10: aren't we putting him in? And then Rico, who had
• 21:59
  Speaker 10: a real good game up until that point, you know,
• 22:02
  Speaker 10: and the Steeler guy made an unbelievable Hite helmet right
• 22:06
  Speaker 10: on the ball. I mean it was that was just incredible.
• 22:09
  Speaker 10: But still I don't know why, you know, Zeke seems
• 22:13
  Speaker 10: to be getting a lot of bad publicity, and uh,
• 22:17
  Speaker 10: I'm still a fan of his and I think Rico
• 22:20
  Speaker 10: is the number one. But you know, what, do you
• 22:22
  Speaker 10: think that they should use Zeke on those short yardage ones?
• 22:26
  Speaker 10: And he has actually had a few good carries, including
• 22:29
  Speaker 10: in the Giants game in the Steelers game, But I
• 22:32
  Speaker 10: got called back to the penalties, which I think is
• 22:35
  Speaker 10: our biggest problem right now, the penalties.
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: Sure, yeah, they're still figuring that out, thank thanks, Doc.
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know, they're still figuring out what they're
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: going to do with the running game and and and
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: you know, I think Rico looked like you know, from
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: that game and also the last couple now he's sorting
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: to take over as as the lead back, and that's
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: that's fine. I think there's still a role for for
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: another running back short yardage, uh, you know, and Zeke
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: could could have that it's it's a new role for him,
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: and you know, short yardage situations. There's two sides to that.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: There's times where you want your bigger guy that you know,
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: if you hit, you have contact, he can still kind
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: of you know, carry himself into the end zone. But
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: you also got to have the quickness to get there too.
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: You know, Tony Pollard, he's not the same when when
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: he was in the back. There were some people arguing, yeah,
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: but he hits that hole quicker, that cole that that
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: hole is is there if he if he hits it
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: as opposed to the guy that's bigger and stronger that's
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: not going to hit it as quick. But also will
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: you have a chance to to maybe you know, shut
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: off that contract a little bit contact and get into
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: the end zone. So uh, you know, I I think
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: that they're not afraid to use either one. I mean
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: in that drive and that game winning drive, Zeke did
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: have a first down carry on third and one and
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: got a first down, So they're they're using them both
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: and Liftkey that there's some talk about you know, using
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: him as well, So they're doing all of it actually
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: right now, all right, let's take a break here on
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: Cowboys storyline, and we'll be right back to take more
• 24:11

  Speaker 1: a chance to talk to the all Cowboy nations from
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: all over the place. We've got messages on text line
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: questions which I want to throw one of those in
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: there as well. Before we get back to the phone
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: lines though, but the lines we do have an open line,
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: I believe eight eight eight eight five five two two
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: nine seven. First, I want to hit a text question.
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: This is from our DJ in New Jersey, says, good morning. Storyline.
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: He's just wanted to acknowledge Hunter Lipke. This is a
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: football player who in the last five games has done
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: nothing but make plays with and without the ball. True.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: I mean, it just keeps going, you know, every single day.
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: I actually told him about the nickname that I gave him.
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: He liked it. I think I called him Thanksgiving because
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: every time you put everything on his plate, he just
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: he just eats it. You just keep adding stuff to
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: the plate, just like like you would on Thanksgiving. You know,
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: he's not he's not He's not gonna be telling a
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: lot of jokes. That's not his thing. I mean, he's
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: kind of, you know, mild manner guy, kind of you know,
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: maybe he does maybe you know, outside of the locker
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: room or whatever, but he's pretty serious minded dude. And
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: but he he just gets it done. And you know,
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: I'm you got to be careful with with players like that,
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: where you're like, just keep giving them the ball, just
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: keep giving them things, because you know he's not I
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: don't think he's the lead back. I think he can
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: he can carry it every now and again, but you know,
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: he doesn't have that that open field speed. He's not
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: gonna do that. That's not what you want. But but
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: you he's he's an H back. I mean he's a
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: classic H back. He can be a tight end, he
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: can be a runner. They the Cowboys really haven't had
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: a player like this in a while. And don't say
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: Darryl Johnson because that's not really the type of player.
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: Darryl Johnson was a fullback. He was a full back.
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: Now he could catch it out of the backfield. He
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: did that, didn't really run it that much. Liftkey's a
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: little bit. He's a lot different in my opinion than him.
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: But man, he had a he had a great play
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: in the game. I actually got almost got in trouble
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: in the press box because you're not really supposed to
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: have outburst, you know. But for some reason, if y'all
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: remember the old on primetime, they would watch ESPN Primetime
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: with Chris Berman would do that when every time Mike
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: Alstock would get the ball. He would just like, well
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: I did that in the middle of the press box
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: when there's a screen. It was at the end of
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: the game, the screen to liftkey and he's running down.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: I'm doing that in the press box. So I got
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: to watch out for that. But then again, maybe those
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: rules are changed a little bit. We keep putting our
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: Spanish broadcast in the press box and they don't tone
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: it down in victor of the album and that that crew,
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: so there's you know, there's outbursts all the time in
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: the press box. Makes it fun. All right, let's go
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: to the phone lines here. Dylan, Northport, Florida, Dylan, what's up?
• 28:57
  Speaker 14: Man has a gun?
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: How are you?
• 29:01
  Speaker 14: I'm all right? Called last week talked about what do
• 29:05
  Speaker 14: we got to do to get away from these slants
• 29:07
  Speaker 14: and crills? Open the pass game and we said, chicken
• 29:10
  Speaker 14: her egg, you gott to run the ball. I think right,
• 29:13
  Speaker 14: And the shows this week Dallas ran the ball. Well,
• 29:16
  Speaker 14: Steelers had to commit resources. I haven't watched the all
• 29:19
  Speaker 14: twenty two, probably won't get a chance to watch this
• 29:20
  Speaker 14: Sleep with the Storm, but we saw live. I saw
• 29:25
  Speaker 14: countless times where the Steelers were stacking the box and
• 29:27
  Speaker 14: I mean just the passing chart here. Dak had four
• 29:30
  Speaker 14: passes past ten yards against the Giants. He had ten
• 29:33
  Speaker 14: against the Steelers. So we put more balls downfield. You
• 29:36
  Speaker 14: saw we go get a touchdown pass off of one
• 29:37
  Speaker 14: of those. Rico ran really well, man, I'm excited about him.
• 29:40
  Speaker 14: Well you can do moving forward. One moment he had,
• 29:43
  Speaker 14: unfortunately was the fumble. Yeah, and that play bothered me
• 29:47
  Speaker 14: a little bit because you mentioned Hunter Lippy Hunter Lippey
• 29:49
  Speaker 14: cleared a nice path for him. He just needed an
• 29:51
  Speaker 14: extra half of the second patients to just follow him
• 29:54
  Speaker 14: and it's basically a walk in touchdown. But other than that,
• 29:57
  Speaker 14: you know, Rito has played a really good vision which
• 29:59
  Speaker 14: he struggled with for this season so far, and I
• 30:01
  Speaker 14: thought he looked really great. I do want to give
• 30:04
  Speaker 14: you my score prediction too. I think this will be
• 30:05
  Speaker 14: probably my.
• 30:06
  Speaker 8: Last call for the league.
• 30:06
  Speaker 14: I'll be on lockdown here very early score score predictions,
• 30:11
  Speaker 14: so this is up to change it as of right now.
• 30:13
  Speaker 14: I'll say the Lions thirty one twenty four because I
• 30:17
  Speaker 14: being the Steelers is one thing, and it was a
• 30:19
  Speaker 14: really good win. As a tough team. I think the
• 30:21
  Speaker 14: Lions just have a craft ton of talent running back
• 30:24
  Speaker 14: wise receiver rise for so many ways they can be
• 30:26
  Speaker 14: who Dallas is still dealing with injuries, and I think
• 30:29
  Speaker 14: Dallas will compete offensively. I just think the Lions running
• 30:33
  Speaker 14: game is going to be a little bit too much
• 30:34
  Speaker 14: this week.
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: Be a tough matchup, for sure, Dylan, you guys be
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: safe over there. The most important thing is not about
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: the Lions game, the Steelers game, Rico fumbling all that.
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: You guys be safe there with the hurricane, for sure.
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: And I appreciate you you taking some.
• 30:48
  Speaker 14: Time to call in all right, thanks Nick doing.
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: You too, man. You know, it's a different world sometimes
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: and just thinking about you know, extra things that are
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: out there. You know, this is just football. This is
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: just we're just talking, you know, Cowboys and and and Steelers,
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: Cowboys and Lion Lions. But I know you guys have
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: you know, real life that that that happens. And and
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: I've heard people say, you know, sometimes this is a
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: type of show, and all of our podcasts are the
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: type of podcasts that can kind of get your mind
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: off of things and and and if that that helps,
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: then then I certainly appreciate it. But uh, the biggest
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: thing is you guys, stay safe. That's the second reference
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: we've had in this show about the hurricanes. And and
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: you know, sometimes we take it for granted here. Everybody's
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: got different things that they deal with obviously, but we
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: don't really Texas, or at least Dallas doesn't deal with hurricanes.
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: Houston does, but but not so much here. But still
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: it's nothing that I've actually been involved in before. And
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: it's a scary situation for sure. You guys be safe
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: out there, all right, Michael and Bowling Green, Kentucky's next.
• 31:48
  Speaker 15: Michael, Hey, how you doing today?
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: Good?
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: How are you?
• 31:52
  Speaker 15: I'm pretty good, all right. You know, I think at
• 31:55
  Speaker 15: the end of the season, I think we're going to
• 31:58
  Speaker 15: look back on this game and say that that was
• 32:03
  Speaker 15: the game that changed our season. I think we're gonna
• 32:06
  Speaker 15: come out on the other side of this game better
• 32:10
  Speaker 15: than we were coming into it. They figured some stuff out.
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: You know that those are things that that you do,
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: and like you said, at the end of the season,
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: you can go back and and and do that. And
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: there have been games like that. I've got some in
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: mind that that I remember, you can look at and go,
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: you know, that game changed everything, and this could be
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: one of them because of how they had to win
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: and who they had to win with. But go go
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: ahead with your other questions or points.
• 32:38
  Speaker 15: I just got a quick question about can you just
• 32:44
  Speaker 15: tell a story about Travis Frederick.
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: Travis Frederick, Okay, that's all I got, all right, story,
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: that's what story, storyline is because it's the story time
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: as well. Travis Frederick. You know the thing about him.
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: I mean, I can't really think of a ton of
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: stories off the bat, but I do remember when he
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: first when he was first drafted. Now, when he was drafted,
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: he hurt some feelings and whether we did our draft show,
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: they didn't have him, they didn't have him getting picked
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: first overall our first round, and I think it hurt
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: a lot of feelings from fans too. Nobody wants to
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: draft a center in the first round, but especially they
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: had moved back from like nineteen to thirty two and
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: so picked up a third round pick in the process.
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: It just wasn't it just wasn't a sexy pick. I mean,
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: nobody from Alignment from Wisconsin's not going to be and so,
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: but what a great picket it was. And it was
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: the second of three in a four year span. There
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: Tyron Smith, then Frederick and then Zach Martin all in
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: that like a four years. They were really that offensive
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: line around the thing. I just remember about him, like
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: I can. I had this visual at training camp of
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: he would get like in a one on one drill.
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: He would get beat like for the first like half second,
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: you know, and you're like, oh, man, he's about to
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: get pancakes. But then he could just anchor down. He
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: just knew how to to kind of just get his
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: body just right where he would just anchor and then
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: just stop. It would just stop the whole process. And
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: then you think this defensive tackle some I don't even
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: I can't even think of, you know, somebody like and
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: Antoine Woods or somebody like, oh look at him, He's
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: about to be Frederick and didn't even just stop. And
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: he was so good at that, knew how to how
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: to you know, put his hands in the right place, leverage.
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: Really great, great player, and it's unfortunate that that, you know,
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: his career was cut short. But uh, you know, he's
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: he's one of those that will go down as is
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: one of the best centers, in my opinion, one of
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: the best centers of all time. All Right, let's go
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: back to the line here, Erwin and Denver. It's been
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: a while, Irwin. What's up man?
• 34:59
  Speaker 16: Hey, what's going on?
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: How you doing?
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: I'm doing great, doing great, Hey. Just a couple of things.
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: I agreed with one of the guys who called in
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: earlier about Micah Parsons, like, I just want to get
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: your thoughts on that. I remember watching Lawrence Taylor play
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: and he was like one of those players that would
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: absolutely destroy a game, and I don't all teams really
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: scheming him and taking him out of games as good
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: as he was. And then the other thing I want
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: to ask you about or make a comment, I really
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: think that Turpin and Tolbert need to be in that
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: starting lineup. I mean, it's obvious that Terpin brings great
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: speed to the wide receiver part. And I just think
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: that Colbert has elevated himself above Cook's Cooks being an
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: older receiver now and I just think that he's ready
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: to take that spot. And I just wanted to get
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: your thoughts on those, and I'll let you go, and
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: thanks for taking my.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: Call, all right, thank you.
• 35:55
  Speaker 9: Man.
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: First of all, starting lineup is not it's not like
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: it used to be. They're all gonna play like they're all.
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: It doesn't matter who's This isn't the super Bowl where
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: they run, you know, who gets the run out of
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: the tunnel and get their name called. I mean it's
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: not it's not so much like that. I'm looking at man,
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: this Hunter Lipke was a starter, you know in the game.
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: I'm looking at the starting lineup. He started with Dabble
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: just because that's the package that they used. So they're
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: they're gonna play. I mean, when Cooks comes back, they're
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: still gonna use Turpin and Tolbert. So who who's the starter?
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: Who gets all the reps? I mean that's a little
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: irre irrelevant because they're all in that. I mean, CD's
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: one guy, one starter, and then you're gonna see Tolbert
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: in there a lot. You'll see Churpin. So I get
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: your point. Your point is they need to play a
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: little bit more, and maybe even more than Cooks when
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: he comes back. Let's see how that goes. I'm not
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: ready to just put Cooks down because I saw this
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: last year too. Last year it was a slow start.
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: They weren't I don't think they were using him correctly,
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: and I don't think they feel like they're using him correctly.
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: They this happened last year year then that they said,
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: this isn't his routes, these aren't these aren't the plays
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: that make him a dynamic receiver. Let's get him down
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: the field, let's get him crossing the field. Once they
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: started to do that, you know, you saw a much
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: better football player. Uh last year. I mean by the
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: end of the year, Cooks was was really really good.
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: So I think they got to make sure and get
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: back to that he can still be a weapon for them. Uh,
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: same with Turpin Tolbert. They try to use them in
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: the right way. And so that's it's I don't think
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: it's a problem to you know, this isn't like I said,
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: this isn't quarterback where you have to make a decision.
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: If they're good and they're talented, there there could be
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: a role for them. Ask for Micah, you know, I
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: we'll see how how he comes back and and and
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: what they do with him. You know, they're they're still
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: figuring that out. Zimmer is still you know, learning on
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: where where where to put him, where to put all
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: of these guys. You know what, what what does overshown
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: do best? You know how can he have an exotic
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: role in there too? So there's a lot of different
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: ways to figure that out. All right, Let's let's take
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: a break here on Cowboy storyline. We'll come back with
• 38:00

  Speaker 9: Here.
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: I am Nick Eatman. We got a few more minutes
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: to go on this show. We're gonna start with We're
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: gonna get back to the phone lines with Chris. He's
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: in Saratoga Springs, New York. Chris. What's up, Bud?
• 39:39
  Speaker 6: Hey?
• 39:39
  Speaker 17: Nick?
• 39:39
  Speaker 8: How it going good?
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: How are you good?
• 39:42
  Speaker 8: I was gonna talk again about the Brandon Cooks thing,
• 39:44
  Speaker 8: but you just handled that for me again.
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: What's your thought? How about? What's your thought on that?
• 39:49
  Speaker 8: I mean I spoke you last week online about it
• 39:52
  Speaker 8: and his yards for separation were terrible. Yeah, but maybe
• 39:55
  Speaker 8: they had to do with his knee and I wanted
• 39:58
  Speaker 8: to give these young guys a chance and told it
• 40:00
  Speaker 8: stepped up huge this week. That was my that's my
• 40:05
  Speaker 8: thought on that, and I'm glad they got the young guys.
• 40:06
  Speaker 8: And I saw Ryan Flownery in there. You didn't get
• 40:10
  Speaker 8: any catches, but I mean he was in there bunch,
• 40:12
  Speaker 8: which was good to see him on the field.
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 40:15
  Speaker 8: Yeah. My other thought is what I actually want your
• 40:19
  Speaker 8: thought on Tyler Smith. Unbelievable that he could just move
• 40:23
  Speaker 8: from left guard to left tackle and hold it down
• 40:26
  Speaker 8: like he did. And I just think, I mean, he
• 40:30
  Speaker 8: might be better at left tackle. Our team might be
• 40:33
  Speaker 8: better at having them at left tackle and having the
• 40:35
  Speaker 8: rookie just sit and learn a little bit and have
• 40:38
  Speaker 8: Tyler Bass there at that left guard position, because they
• 40:41
  Speaker 8: looked really good when he came in there.
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's yes, Yeah, I mean that that's a that's
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: a dilemma. Thanks, thanks for the call, Chris, appreciate that.
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, I I said this yesterday. And you know,
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: Tyler Guidon, fortunately he's kind of dated like he has
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: a chance to play in this game against against the Lions,
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: so so his his injury is not as serious obviously
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: as Marshawn Neelan, who's going to be out for a
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: few weeks here, probably gonna go to i R. So
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: at this point I would just stop putting. I would
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: just stop calling people defensive ends. Just just make them like,
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: just call them outside linebackers. And then therefore, if you
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: if you put a defensive end tag on them, they're
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: getting hurt. That's just that's just the way it's going here.
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: But but to Tyler's to your point on Tyler Smith,
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: it's phenomenal what what he did in the game. This
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: this it's not easy to just say I'll just just
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: move out there. I've seen Zach Martin. Zack Martin's a
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: team player. He can play right tackle. I saw him
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: in a press conference one time a couple of years
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: ago when they were sort of moving that and they said,
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: you know, what are your thoughts on that? And he said,
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: I'm a right guard and they're like, yeah, but but
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: you know you have the ability, you know, if you
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: need it, he said, I'm a guarden, Like, okay, it matters.
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: It's a difference. It's a difference between tackle and guard.
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: You guys know that. I'm not I'm not telling you
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: something you don't know. I'm just trying to point out
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: that when when that happens and he plays guard left
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: guard in the game and moves out to tackle with
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: no practice and does that, that's an impressive move and
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: it's it's unbelievable what what he's been able to do.
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: I don't think it gets it gets mentioned enough. Just
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: just how remarkable that that is. Tyler Geiton needs to
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: play to get better. But you're right right now in
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: this game against the Lions, who's your best players? Maybe
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: it is TJ. Bassett left guard and Tyler Smith at
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: left tackle. I know the Cowboys don't want to do it,
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: but it's it's it's the best for your football team,
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: you know so, and that's that's what they're trying to do,
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: is win games. All right, Gavin, Oklahoma City? What's up?
• 42:47
  Speaker 18: By Hey, Nick, I'm gonna keep it brief today. I
• 42:51
  Speaker 18: just got a couple of things for you. My first thought,
• 42:54
  Speaker 18: and it is just a thought, so feel free to
• 42:57
  Speaker 18: shoot it down.
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: Is your thought.
• 42:59
  Speaker 18: I was kind of I was wondering how you feel
• 43:04
  Speaker 18: about about it, though, So I personally think that maybe
• 43:10
  Speaker 18: with our star players being out, or some of our
• 43:13
  Speaker 18: star players being out, seeing their backups come in and
• 43:17
  Speaker 18: put forth full effort and really stop that run game
• 43:21
  Speaker 18: and make some plays.
• 43:22
  Speaker 8: I was wondering if you.
• 43:23
  Speaker 18: Think that maybe could motivate then when they come back
• 43:26
  Speaker 18: to like, I don't know, perform better. And I know
• 43:30
  Speaker 18: I feel like I know what your reply would be today.
• 43:32
  Speaker 18: If playing for the Dallas Cowboys and making money and
• 43:36
  Speaker 18: winning games doesn't motivate you enough, then I don't think
• 43:39
  Speaker 18: anything will.
• 43:39
  Speaker 5: But I don't know.
• 43:41
  Speaker 18: I just sometimes when I watch Michael in particular, and
• 43:44
  Speaker 18: don't get me wrong, I love Michael Parsons, I feel
• 43:47
  Speaker 18: like on first and second down, especially when they run
• 43:50
  Speaker 18: the ball, he doesn't show as much effort as some
• 43:53
  Speaker 18: of the younger hunger guys might be shown. Yeah, and
• 43:58
  Speaker 18: the other thing I got for you, i'll just listen
• 44:00
  Speaker 18: to you talk is I usually don't call in multiple
• 44:03
  Speaker 18: times a week, and I probably won't later in the week.
• 44:05
  Speaker 18: But I think the odds are a way against us
• 44:09
  Speaker 18: in Detroit. But you always ask the fans what they
• 44:11
  Speaker 18: think we could do to win a game. I think
• 44:13
  Speaker 18: in this particular game, you're gonna have to really out
• 44:16
  Speaker 18: scheme Detroit as a coaching staff, and everybody's gonna have
• 44:19
  Speaker 18: to give one hundred percent effort on every play because
• 44:21
  Speaker 18: it's going to be a tough one and I think
• 44:23
  Speaker 18: falling to h and three at home would be kind
• 44:26
  Speaker 18: of devastating, even if three and three is at the
• 44:28
  Speaker 18: end of the world. But with that, I'll hang up
• 44:30
  Speaker 18: and thanks for taking my car, all.
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: Right, thanks, Well, it would be devastating if you weren't
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: playing well on the road. I mean, you know, you
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: count on winning games at home. You don't count on
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: winning all your road games like that. But this is
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: the way this league is. That's way this team is,
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: you know it. And Baltimore is a really good team.
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: I mean Baltimore is really really good, and I think
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: Detroit is too. And I don't know about the Saints.
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: The Saints are. They were good that day, but I
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: don't know how how how good they are there better
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: than than they were, So you know, I can't can't
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: look at it following oh and three at home. I mean,
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: that's just kind of the way the way it is.
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: You've got to just keep it. I said this all
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: for when the schedule came out. Just just keep your
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: head above water here in these first seven or eight games,
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: because then after that you might get on a chance
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: to you know, get a chance to start winning some games.
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: But then again, the schedule, it's it looks totally different
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: than than it was. I mean at San Francisco doesn't
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: look as tough as it it usually is. We'll see,
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: it'll be it'll be a tough game. But I'm just saying,
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: with McCaffrey not there right now, we'll see what happens
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: with him. At Washington looks a lot tougher, uh than
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: it did. Washington is much better now, So it's hard
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: to look like that, you know, too far ahead, Uh
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: your point real quick about Micah Parsons. You know that's
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: a slippery slope when you're talking about you know, guys
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: getting getting hurt and and they motivate him and all that.
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: I think it's a mindset for the entire team of uh,
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: you know, yes, we we we need you guys back.
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: You guys are our stars. We need you back. But
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: this team's gonna fight. This team's gonna fight. They're gonna
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: hold down the fort without you and and and and
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: these guys that were pulling off the practice squad that
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: you could barely even pronounce their names or rearrea and
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: and all that is gonna come in and he's gonna
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: step up, and and Carl Lawson's gonna step up. And
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: Chauncey Golson's gonna move from tackle to end, and and
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: Mazzie Smith's gonna play well. And lin Val Joseph's gonna
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: turn back the clock like it's five six years ago,
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: and and and and bull rush his way up to
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: the center of the quarterback and all that. I mean,
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: these guys are just gonna ball out and play. So
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: come on back, come back when you can, you know,
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: hopefully sooner than later. But but no one's gonna roll over,
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: you know. And and I think that's kind of the mindset.
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: And and maybe they come back. It rejuvenates everyone. We
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: saw it when Dak went out, they rallied around Cooper
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: rush Dak came back, they took it to another level too,
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: So that that might be the case. Let's hope that
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: that's the case when he does come back. We got
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: one more caller here, Michael Mississippi.
• 47:04
  Speaker 16: What's up man, Hey, rookie Mike Nick is what the
• 47:09
  Speaker 16: real rookie Mike. I'm a huge fan, never called him before.
• 47:13
  Speaker 16: First time caller. I bought your book. Love it by
• 47:18
  Speaker 16: the way, we go, Thank you so much.
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: I appreciate that. Thank you for buying the book.
• 47:24
  Speaker 16: Yeah. I actually wanted to defend Jerry Jones a little
• 47:27
  Speaker 16: bit on this call. I don't know if you've seen it,
• 47:31
  Speaker 16: but at the end of the game, when Dad took
• 47:34
  Speaker 16: the winning touchdown, they showed him moving the press box
• 47:38
  Speaker 16: and he was emotional. You know, he was crying. And
• 47:43
  Speaker 16: it's like all the fans say he don't care about winning,
• 47:46
  Speaker 16: and you know, he's all he cares about is making money.
• 47:50
  Speaker 16: Even media says it. And I just really want to
• 47:53
  Speaker 16: give a shout out to him. If he's crying in
• 47:55
  Speaker 16: the press box, he obviously cares about winning. Yeah, So
• 48:01
  Speaker 16: I don't know.
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I've seen that. I've seen him and he gets emotional,
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: you know about about some of those situations. That game
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: was was an emotional game. Just the people that say
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: that that they they've never met him, they don't know him.
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: They if they think if people really think Jerry doesn't
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: want to win, that then they they don't know who
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: he is and what he's about. And and uh, it's
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: just easy to just it's low hanging fruit just to
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: kind of say that sounds good. People are gonna think,
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: oh yeah, yeah, well, you're really critical on the Cowboys.
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: But those people don't know, They honestly don't know if
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: they really really think Jerry's not trying to win that
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: that's ridiculous. But sorry, Michael, we're pressed up against it.
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: You got one more you have more? One more pointer question? Yeah,
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: I was just.
• 48:44
  Speaker 16: Gonna say, you know, we're always favored to go to
• 48:46
  Speaker 16: the super Bowl and everything, and everybody's always talking about that.
• 48:49
  Speaker 5: Hey, let's play this on the doll rod.
• 48:51
  Speaker 16: It's just, uh, I ain't giving up on it. We
• 48:54
  Speaker 16: got seventeen games and we got a hard schedule coming up.
• 48:58
  Speaker 16: Like you said, everybody's stepping up. They know they got
• 49:01
  Speaker 16: a step up. We got players coming back. So let's
• 49:03
  Speaker 16: just have them saying we're gonna lose all these games
• 49:06
  Speaker 16: and let's see what happened.
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: All right, all right, I appreciate it, Thank you, Thanks Michael.
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: You know, and that that is what I It's just
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: the mindset of expectations. This isn't doesn't look like a
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: twelve and five type team. Then again, twelve and five
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: didn't get you where you really wanted to go. This
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: is gonna be a different type of team. This is
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: a different season. Uh, making the playoffs for this team,
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: I think would be really, really a big accomplishment, especially
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: with all these injuries they're they're they're just fighting through
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: it right now. But you know it's it's gonna be
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: it's gonna be a challenge, but you keep you keep
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: giving yourself a chance. Just give yourself a chance. Figure
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: out a way to run the ball, figure out a
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: way to stop the ball. Set He's gonna be making plays.
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: He'll be making some plays in the second half of games.
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: I don't know what's happening there, but I'm sure they'll
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: get that thing turned around. You got enough superstars, you
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: got guys coming back. Just gotta keep gotta keep fighting.
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: And that's what they did in that game. I think
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: that's what they're going to continue to do. Guys. It
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: was fun talking to you guys today. Had a lot
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: of fun. We'll do it again tomorrow. We always do
• 50:06
