• 0:56
  Speaker 2: I don't care what their record is. You can expect that.

• 1:02
  Speaker 2: of game, especially if it's supposed to rain a lot
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: the weather, it's gonna be. It's gonna be one where
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: field position matters, kicking game turnovers of course, hanging on

  Speaker 2: So you're right, rise and shine. Greg.
• 1:49
  Speaker 5: What do you got yes, sir?
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: Hey, So I just wanted to start up. I kind
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: of try to pump some life into the into the
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: Cowboy nation because what I'm what I'm feeling from like
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: the twitterverse and and just from the last call the
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: last couple of days, it's just been kind of weird.
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: I feel like everybody's kind of quitting on the season,
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: and you know, I don't understand it. It's really early
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: in the season. We got a we got an extra game, right,
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: seventeen games on the season, We're we're doing fine. Like
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: where I know every team is having struggles, every team
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: has injuries. I mean that kind of stuff happened. But
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: we can't kind of quit on the season. You know,
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: it's a long season. I remember a couple of seasons ago,
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: there was something you said where, yeah, you have to
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: have you know, good good uh good teams, you know,
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: good players, players with skill and stuff.
• 2:33
  Speaker 5: But you know what else, you gotta have some luck.
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: I remember you said that a couple of seasons ago.
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: So and that's very true. You know, we we still
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: have the luck of the season. I know some of
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: our start players are down, Michael Barsons, you know, Tank
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: Lawrence and all that. But you know, I had a
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: I had a teacher, not teacher, one of my coaches
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: in high school. He had this T shirt and he
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: he it was his saying. He always said it. He said,
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: I will not be out hustled.
• 2:56
  Speaker 6: And he didn't care like who he was.
• 2:57
  Speaker 7: He didn't care.
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: If there were good guys on the team or bad
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: guys on the team. He said, you may not be
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: as skilled as one guy or the next. You may
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: not be able to catch as well as one guy
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: is the next, but one thing you can do is
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: bring work and bring hustle, and I think I wish
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: there was someone. I hope there's someone in the Cowboys
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: locker room to tell these younger guys, look, the next
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: man up, whoever it is.
• 3:16
  Speaker 8: You will not be out hustled.
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: What you what you lacking skill? You make up for
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: and work. Well, you lacking skill, you can always go
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: and run and can you run? Can you tackle? Then
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: there you go. You know what we are now. I'm
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: not saying we don't need Michael Parsons and those type
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: of guys, but when these guys that need to step
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: up in their place, I mean, I wish they would
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: get that message from my old coach man, I will
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: not be all hustled. As long as you go out
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: with the field in that mindset you have a you
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: have a big chance of winning. And so I just
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: I don't know, I want to pump some life in
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: the Cowboys nation and let everybody know, hey, we're not
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: done yet. We're just getting this thing started. So that's
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: kind of all I got this morning. And I hope
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: everybody kind of you know, changing their mindset about this
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: season is it's far from over.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: All, right, all right, Greg appreciate, appreciate the call and
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: the pep talk and all that. You know, it's it's
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: it's one of those things where yes, it's a it's
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: a it's definitely a next man up philosophy. You know,
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: out hustled, outwork, all that, all that mindset sounds good,
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: but you know that like it's it's the NFL. These guys,
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: and I hate to say it's so cliche. You know,
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: they get paid to and all that. These guys, these
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: backups a the Cowboys that they get paid. They get
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: paid to go out there and perform and play. And
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: the coaches it's their job to make sure these guys
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: are not number one ready, but also you know, uh
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: able to come in, know the plays, understand what to do,
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: and you know it's gonna be. This is a huge
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: challenge for this football team this this week just because
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: of sometimes you just lean on your best players. You know,
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: defense is struggling, you know, Micah, just just go make
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: a play and it sometimes it's not Michael, it's been Tank.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: I mean Tank Lawrence has won some football games for
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: this team in the last few years by making a
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: stop down at the goal line and and and you
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: know fourth down plays and we knife it through, uh,
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: you know, the line of scrimmage and making a tackle
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: for loss. He's done that multiple times, and so I
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: think sometimes as a defense, you're like, well, maybe Michael
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: will just make a sack, maybe Doron Blane will get
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: a pick, maybe Trayvon will get a pick or tank.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: And these guys are all banged up. You know, Trayvon
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: Diggs is banged up. He's got an ankle injury. They
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: added him to the injury report. That'll be something to
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: watch as we get a little closer to the game.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: We'll see how how he progresses, if he does, and
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: if you'll be able to play Sunday night. All right,
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: let's go to Robbie in Coco Beach, Florida.
• 5:44
  Speaker 9: What's up, Nick in morning?
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: Morning? How are you?
• 5:47
  Speaker 9: I'm great, Hope family as well as always and appreciate
• 5:50
  Speaker 9: with you and christ and Derek too. For us man,
• 5:52
  Speaker 9: it's nice to.
• 5:52
  Speaker 10: Have a voice.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: Thank you, appreciate it.
• 5:54
  Speaker 7: Ron.
• 5:55
  Speaker 9: All right, so you told me a great story about
• 5:58
  Speaker 9: Romo and your guys fly football, and that's awesome that
• 6:01
  Speaker 9: Beam was the best player on the team besides Romo.
• 6:04
  Speaker 9: Got your back, Chris, I'd like to hear to golf
• 6:08
  Speaker 9: one if you don't mind.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: Later the golf win. Yeah yeah, yeah, I'm sorry.
• 6:16
  Speaker 9: Didn't mean to cut you off. And I want to
• 6:18
  Speaker 9: clarify some I said, I thought the score was gonna
• 6:21
  Speaker 9: be like twenty seven to thirteen or twenty seven to twenty.
• 6:24
  Speaker 9: When I said that, I know those are very different scores.
• 6:27
  Speaker 9: I meant that they would get a like a.
• 6:29
  Speaker 7: Garbage time later.
• 6:30
  Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think we're gonna handle the game.
• 6:33
  Speaker 9: I just got got feeling.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: Man, all right, I am all right.
• 6:36
  Speaker 9: I'll listen to a story off the air and have
• 6:38
  Speaker 9: a great day, my brother very weekend.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: All right, cool, Well, it's just your average story of
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: you know, some young sports writer. They just kind of
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: walked into the situation where he has to caddy for
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: the quarterback. That's just I mean, that happens all the time.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: I'm sure I'll try to do it quickly. Romo was
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: qualifying like you all seemed to do or try to,
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: you know, for the US Open, or it was he
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: would you know, be with an amateur qualifying. If you
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: under don't understand that works, you can. It's it's like
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: different rounds, sexual rounds, regional rounds and so you can
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: you can make it to the US Open just by qualifying.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: And so he tried to do that, uh several times,
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: and there was one tournament where he he was in
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: the top six or seven. It looked like he was
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: going to make it into the I think that I
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: think the top eight make It looked like he was
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: going to get him. He had played earlier in the
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: day and we walked around and talked to him, and
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: you know, he gives you a little football insight and
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: all that kind of stuff. As it turned out, he
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: had to come back later in the day. He did
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: not make it. He was in like a five way
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: tie for one of the spots, and so his caddy
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: didn't come back with him. He had came back, but
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: his caddy didn't come back. So now he has to play,
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: and it's getting dark. He has to go and play
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: and try to beat out these and there's like we're
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: talking like twenty two year old kids, you know, college
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: players at Oklahoma and all that. They're all they're right here.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: So Romo doesn't have a caddy. He asked me to
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: do it, and so I mean, he just needed someone
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: to hold the bag. So here I am thinking this
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: is cool. I get to go be the caddy here
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: for roma. We're talking like two thousand and ten, maybe eleven,
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: and so, so okay, first I remember the first hole,
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: he hits it way right into the driving range. Okay,
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: so there's like, not only you have to find his ball,
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: there's like a thousand balls. You got to find the
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: one that says titlest nine right nine his ball. So
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: it gets found and I'm like, here you go, yeah,
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: I go. I'm like, how about you know eight nine
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: eight iron nine iron? He was like I'm thinking I
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: got this and he was like, yeah, those are good choices.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna take a seven and spin it back and
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: I'm like, crap, okay, I don't know anything. So anyways,
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: we do this like two or three holes. There was
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: a water sprinkler that was going on and it was
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: dark and I had to put my foot on it
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: and as everybody hit and it was unbelievable. He ends
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: up making this great putt and he ends up getting
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: he advances to the qualifying round I guess the next
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: round of regional in Houston. So that's my claim to
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: fame that I caddied him through the next round of
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: the US Open qualifying. He didn't use me for the
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: next one, and he didn't and he didn't make it,
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: so maybe he should have thought about that. Anyways, it's
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: a longer story. I just tried to move it through here.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: That's me. I had to caddy for Romo for three
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: holes one time for a golf tournament. All right, let's
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: go to the next caller. I don't have it, Chris.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: If you have a caller, let's throw him out there.
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: James and Maryland, James and Maryland, let's go.
• 9:39
  Speaker 11: Hey, this is a longtime Cowboys fan from sixty nine,
• 9:45
  Speaker 11: enjoyed the days of Roger Stallbach. So it's been a
• 9:49
  Speaker 11: great time being the Cowboys fan. But I had a
• 9:52
  Speaker 11: question for you that last night, and it had related
• 9:56
  Speaker 11: to a time when the Cowboys were kicking a field
• 9:59
  Speaker 11: goal from the sixties. It was a sixty six yard
• 10:01
  Speaker 11: field goal that the ref allowed the other side to
• 10:07
  Speaker 11: take their time and get the ball there to where
• 10:09
  Speaker 11: there was only like three seconds left.
• 10:13
  Speaker 10: What is the what is the record?
• 10:14
  Speaker 11: I mean, what is the rule about that? Why did
• 10:16
  Speaker 11: they allow the other side to wait that long to
• 10:19
  Speaker 11: kick the field goal?
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: James, I'm not following you. What see what year. Are
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: you talking about here?
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: In what game this year?
• 10:28
  Speaker 11: Okay, whenever Audrey was going to kick a sixty six
• 10:32
  Speaker 11: yard field goal and then the time ran out, but
• 10:35
  Speaker 11: they allowed the defense to take their time to get
• 10:38
  Speaker 11: the you know, get their side on there, and they
• 10:40
  Speaker 11: only allowed like three seconds for them to hike the ball.
• 10:43
  Speaker 11: That's kind of rushing. It seems like that's an advantage
• 10:45
  Speaker 11: to the defense. And last night it happened again where
• 10:47
  Speaker 11: the refs standing over the over the ball and time
• 10:50
  Speaker 11: ran out. What is the rule on that? That doesn't
• 10:52
  Speaker 11: seem to be fair.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, it's it's a discretionary thing. The rule is
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: in place for if the offense substitutes, then the defense
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: is allowed to substitute as well. And now the defense
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: is getting cute and how long they decide to bring
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: their linemen and how fast he trots himself onto the field,
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: you know, And so that I've seen that that happen,
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: and then they're standing over the ball and there's a
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: cat and mouse game to it as well. I don't
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: know if I don't remember that being the issue for
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: the Cleveland game. That was because they didn't reset the
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: clock like they normally do when they when you go
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: out to get a field goal. They did not reset it.
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: All it is is just moving it from the twenty
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: twenty five seconds to the forty. They didn't do that
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: they typically do, and that that messed that up. But yeah,
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: that's kind of a gray area rule that you're seeing
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: in college and pro about substitution and how long the
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: officials are letting, you know, letting the defense substitute.
• 11:57
  Speaker 11: Sure, but last night they literally were standing over the
• 12:00
  Speaker 11: ball as the clock ran out, literally standing over what's
• 12:03
  Speaker 11: the what's the offense supposed to do?
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: Not substitute? You know, I guess imagine.
• 12:08
  Speaker 10: But what if?
• 12:09
  Speaker 7: What if?
• 12:09
  Speaker 11: But what if it was what you know, the clock
• 12:11
  Speaker 11: had stopped. But what if you know that in normal
• 12:14
  Speaker 11: like the clock running, they you know, they run out
• 12:17
  Speaker 11: there as fast as they can. They don't wait for
• 12:18
  Speaker 11: the defense to get their players. So it seems like
• 12:21
  Speaker 11: they should have a special rule when it's a kicking
• 12:23
  Speaker 11: the field goal.
• 12:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, anyway, I didn't see the game. I guess you're
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: you're talking about. The field goal unit was running out there,
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: but they.
• 12:32
  Speaker 11: Were standing around waiting for the rest to get away
• 12:35
  Speaker 11: from the ball, and literally the time went out, you know,
• 12:37
  Speaker 11: ran out and then they get a field penalty.
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: Got it. I didn't see that and I didn't see
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: that one, James. I saw one play of that game
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: last night, and the last one I thought I could
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: turn it on and watch a little overtime, and I
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: saw one player.
• 12:48
  Speaker 11: Yeah, so it reminded me of the time for the Cowboys.
• 12:52
  Speaker 11: Not as bad for the Cowboys, but it was worse
• 12:54
  Speaker 11: than last night, all right, And no one seems to
• 12:56
  Speaker 11: call it out anyway. I just wondered, what's going on.
• 12:59
  Speaker 11: It seems like it's happening more this year, and I
• 13:01
  Speaker 11: think they're getting cute about like you said.
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they bring a big old lineman run out there,
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: and uh yeah, he takes his sweet time. I've seen
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: see it in college. It's frustrating obviously for the offense,
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: but you know, you could have a time out and
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: you can not substitute. But for the kicking that that is,
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: that's a unique one as well.
• 13:19
  Speaker 11: All Right, all I love your show, Thank you for everything.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: Appreciate it. All right, Jane gets gets his first time caller.
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: Here we go, all right, let's uh eight eight eight
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: eight five five two two ninety seven. I think the
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: lines are open. That means one thing. Let's take a break.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: Let's take a quick break, get it out of the way.

• 15:53
  Speaker 2: We've got another first time caller. This is JC. He's
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: in Arkansas. What's up man?
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: Hey?
• 16:02
  Speaker 12: Nick?
• 16:03
  Speaker 8: Listen, Yeah, yeah, I'm here. I'm here, man. I just
• 16:07
  Speaker 8: wanted to first thank you for allowing me to come
• 16:10
  Speaker 8: on in here. I don't I'm not sure what's talking about.
• 16:12
  Speaker 8: I just wanted to call in and get a question
• 16:14
  Speaker 8: to you and see if you can help me.
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: Uh.
• 16:17
  Speaker 8: So this this understanding that Doubt is a better back
• 16:24
  Speaker 8: at this point than Zeke is mind boggling to me.
• 16:28
  Speaker 8: I don't think our issue is back at all. I
• 16:31
  Speaker 8: think it's the line and uh, I think those guys
• 16:34
  Speaker 8: are learning. But do you think that I mean, honestly
• 16:37
  Speaker 8: think that Zeke is a Oh Dubdell is a better
• 16:41
  Speaker 8: back than Zeke at this point?
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: Uh probably gives you a little bit well ed what though?
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: That's that's the problem with this thing, is like at
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: what what are you asking to do? I mean better? Overall?
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: I think it's probably pretty close. So third and one,
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: who do you want the ball? I mean, I'm I'm
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: gonna ask you, jac third and one at midfield, who
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: do you want to carry the ball? No question Okay,
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: screen pass in the in the middle of the of
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: the first quarter, screen pass in the open field at
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: the twenty yard line. Who do you want it?
• 17:19
  Speaker 8: That's probably doubted.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: Okay, third and nine, here comes the blitz? Who do
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: you want back there with? With that? The that's the problem?
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: You know, you know what I'm saying, like like you know,
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: and that's that's what the dilemma. I think the Cowboys
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: are in and and uh, I wasn't trying to put
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: you on the spot. I think you kind of proved
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: the point and I answered I would answer all of
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: those questions the same way. That's where I think it
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: gets a little tricky on who do you want out here?
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: And playing the hothand and what defense and all that.
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: Who's gonna blitz? More so that's why they both kind
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: of play you know, That's that's kind of where it is.
• 17:55
  Speaker 8: But even then, adding to the issue, I mean that
• 17:58
  Speaker 8: you know that's a full commitment to war they RB one.
• 18:01
  Speaker 8: Is that not? Yeah, sound like a problem that.
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: They didn't commit to it. They didn't go and draft
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: someone and go.
• 18:09
  Speaker 8: Get no know that they that they that what they
• 18:13
  Speaker 8: have right now, they won't choose between one or the other.
• 18:16
  Speaker 8: I know scenarios and all that and what you just
• 18:18
  Speaker 8: brought up, but I'm saying, right the coaching focused on
• 18:24
  Speaker 8: either Deeke or I mean Zeke or Doubtle, one of
• 18:27
  Speaker 8: them need to be RB one. I just don't think
• 18:30
  Speaker 8: the committee thing is working.
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. I mean, I've seen we've seen
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: multiple backs play before. I mean, committee to me is
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: two three you know, more than two three four guys
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: that you're throwing in there. I'm okay with if they
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: haven't figured out which one between those two guys, and
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: if they both play kind of in a healthy rotation.
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: I've seen that. I know there's fans out there, and
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: I'm I'm kind of with it that maybe Lipki needs
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: to be in there a little bit more too, So
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: I'm I I just don't think one is has separated
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: themselves from the other so that they're I don't think
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: they're trying to get cute. I just think that there's
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: a difference of opinion in who they should play.
• 19:14
  Speaker 8: M Okay, Well, I think Zeke is as far better
• 19:19
  Speaker 8: back overall, like I said, than than than Doubtle, and
• 19:23
  Speaker 8: I think they need to commit to him. And you know,
• 19:25
  Speaker 8: doubtle is your relief back to you know, rest him
• 19:29
  Speaker 8: or or or situational things, you know, along with duce
• 19:34
  Speaker 8: and and uh looking you know, I think that's great,
• 19:37
  Speaker 8: But they got to commit to a running back one.
• 19:39
  Speaker 8: I just that's just my I love coaching input, all right.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean, and you might be right. I mean
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: there's there's cases where you see one one back do it,
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: and that's just mainly because he's head and shoulders above
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: the rest when it's pretty close and and and two
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: different backs can give him two things. I mean, let's
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: not forget now we're not that far remove from having
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: a thousand yard rusher on this team that was a backup.
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: I mean that was that was what two or three
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: years ago. I mean Tony Pollard was the backup to
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: Zeke and he made the Pro Bowl. Zeke had ten
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: touchdown ten rushing touchdowns that year and Pollard was had
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: a thousand yards and made the Pro Bowl as the
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: as the backup. So you know that worked, you know,
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: in two different backs doing two different things. So I
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: don't know about committing to one back. I just I
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: just think that they don't. This seems like one of
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: those situations where they just they don't really have any
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: running back that they really love, really trust, and they're
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: kind of throwing different things out there. So it just
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: hasn't hasn't worked out just yet. All Right, I'm going
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: to a text line question here. Don't forget about the
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: text line. Joe in Stanford, Texas. He says, I want
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: to see Ryan Flinoy. Do you think he will be
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: given a chance to make an impact this week against
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: the steel I think he'll get a chance to play.
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: I would imagine he gets you know, he gets activated
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: for this game, but you know, I don't know. I'm
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: not I'm not sure if he's going to get like
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: a chance to make an impact. I think there's a
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: lot of people really excited about this guy, and I
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: don't know if if it's if he's there just yet
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: to make that make that leap. I think he'll, you know,
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: I think Jalen Brooks is still ahead of him. I
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: think he'll play more. But you never know. You may see,
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: we may see Flinoy out there, maybe he's somebody around
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: the goal line. There's a couple of packages for you know,
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: I mean these receivers. If it gets into one of
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: those games where they throw the ball around a lot.
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: You know, these receivers that they're not out there every
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: every snap, they need to break. Flinoy will get some chances,
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: So I'm yeah, he'll get a chance to make an impact.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: I just don't know how much we'll we'll see of him.
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: But if he can hinges that trend like he's done
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: in the preseason games where he got better and better
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: and better, then yeah that this this could be a
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: good start for him. All right, Chuck d Bridge City, Texas?
• 22:11
  Speaker 14: What's up?
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: Man?
• 22:12
  Speaker 7: And Nick?
• 22:13
  Speaker 14: Hey, Chuck, Hey, I'm trying to call least once a
• 22:18
  Speaker 14: week so I can get me a shirt maybe. All right,
• 22:23
  Speaker 14: Oh man, it'd be nice to see Dak and CD takeover,
• 22:27
  Speaker 14: just just for their confidence, just to hear everybody all
• 22:31
  Speaker 14: in they there or stop talking crap, because they're due
• 22:34
  Speaker 14: to to break out and carry this team. We need that,
• 22:38
  Speaker 14: we need them to step up and take over, just
• 22:43
  Speaker 14: prove that Dak doesn't fields and CD's the man. They
• 22:47
  Speaker 14: just That's what I'd like to see. And that's all
• 22:49
  Speaker 14: I got.
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: All right. They got paid to do that, you know,
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: and you're not wrong. I mean, that's that's what this is.
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: That's what the contracts like this, that's what they mean.
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: That it's not just a reward for having great seasons
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: all that. That's not what contracts are in the NFL.
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: It's not what they should be. I think they're sometimes
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: teams in Jerry Jones probably have been guilty of doing that,
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: paying players, especially back in the nineties, for what they've done,
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: what they've accomplished, what they've meant to the program, I
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: mean to the franchise, and even though they weren't ready
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: to kind of they weren't able to kind of sustain that.
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: In this case, though, that's not the way it is anymore.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: The CD he's signed his deal to take over and
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: be the top target on this team, the top playmaker,
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: and that's the guy that's supposed to get him the
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: ball and everyone else and lead this team. And so
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: when the running game is down, when the offensive line
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: is young and experience, have a few penalties, you get
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: an injury to Brandon Cooks that receive it's who's gonna
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: step up other than those guys. I mean, I'm not
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: saying you have to be Superman and do all those things,
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: but you do have to be the guy, be the leader.
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: So I don't disagree with what you said. Those guys
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: have to step up, make the plays. Yeah, the ball,
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: and everyone knows CD's gonna gonna get the ball. The
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: Steelers know it. But it seems like every week the
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: greatest players, that mean Jamar Chase and Jefferson and all
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: those guys. Even last year, they knew CD was getting
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: the ball. They figured out ways to do it. So
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: they're gonna need it to keep uh knocking to as well.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Wally in New York. Wally,
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: what's up?
• 24:44
  Speaker 7: Hey?
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: How you doing next?
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: Good?
• 24:45
  Speaker 6: How are you kick?
• 24:47
  Speaker 5: San? I called it the other day, just once called
• 24:49
  Speaker 5: it once again? Uh, something that last poll you had
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: or called before that. Uh, just talking about using different
• 24:56
  Speaker 5: running backs for different situations.
• 24:59
  Speaker 15: Uh.
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: Confident to you this week that we can get something
• 25:02
  Speaker 5: going with the running game to maybe open up the
• 25:04
  Speaker 5: passing game.
• 25:05
  Speaker 4: Uh.
• 25:06
  Speaker 5: And also I heard somewhere where I heard someone say
• 25:09
  Speaker 5: that if we have three RB ones, you really have none, right.
• 25:12
  Speaker 6: Uh?
• 25:12
  Speaker 5: And one more point I have as far as Dalvin goes,
• 25:16
  Speaker 5: how does that work as far as protecting him? Keeping
• 25:19
  Speaker 5: him on the practice squad?
• 25:20
  Speaker 8: Uh?
• 25:21
  Speaker 5: Do you have to like activate him every week or
• 25:24
  Speaker 5: one of the chances of another team poaching him or
• 25:26
  Speaker 5: far a practice buad uh. Yeah, once again, thanks for
• 25:29
  Speaker 5: everything you do. Nick, great job and I want to
• 25:32
  Speaker 5: say I picked up your book. I just got to
• 25:34
  Speaker 5: start reading.
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: But Cowboys, Well, thank you. I appreciate that. WELLI you know,
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: uh to answer your question, Well, the first part about
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: you know, three RB ones, they're not RB ones. If
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: you have three of them, then you don't know which
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: one is. Which I mean that that's not what an
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: RB one is. That's not QB one, it's it's you know,
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: it's you just have it's just called RB and you'
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: and you're putting him in that and that in that spot.
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: It's like, you know, I just I just don't think
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: that they they know what they what they had that
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: they don't they're just trying to figure out the best
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: situation and and and not one of them is is
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: head and shoulders above the rest. As for Dalvin Cook,
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: remember he's been on he's been a free agent all
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: off season. So poaching him off off the practice squad,
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: I mean Kansas City didn't do that, you know, they
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: they didn't. They didn't go and get him when when
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: they had an injury and there's been some other teams
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: with injuries as well, and so I don't know if
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: that's necessarily the case. I mean, this is a good
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: opportunity for Dalvin Cook. I think it's he's not one
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: hundred ready yet. You know, you got to remember that
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: teams go to training camp, Okay, I mean players go
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: to training camp a month and a half really before
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: the start of the season. It's about five to six
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: weeks before the start of the season, get themselves ready,
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: ready to play. That's that's what that's what happens in
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: the NFL. Well, this guy's right before the start of
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: the season, so it's been a month for him. This
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: is kind of his training camp. You know, you would
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: liked for that to happen earlier, but that's what that's
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: what he chose to do, and that's what they did.
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: So so I think he's getting close to getting himself
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: ready to go. But I think if the Cowboys were
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: are evaluating him in practice and they thought that he is,
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: you know, absolutely going to help them more than what
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: they had, they would have played them by Now. I'm
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: not saying that they're not going to use them, but
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: you know, I just think that this is a ramp
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: up mode for him, and apparently, for whatever the reason,
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: he's just not ready yet. All right, Lewis and Langston, Oklahoma.
• 27:39
  Speaker 8: Hey, we're going on.
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: Hey, Louis, how you doing?
• 27:42
  Speaker 5: Man much?
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: Man?
• 27:43
  Speaker 16: Give him a score prediction. I'll say twenty four to eighteen.
• 27:46
  Speaker 16: They don't really score a whole bunch, so I'm hoping
• 27:49
  Speaker 16: we keep them from getting over the twenty one march.
• 27:51
  Speaker 16: So I'm gonna go twenty four to seventeen seven. And
• 27:54
  Speaker 16: I did our defense shows up today?
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: All right? All right, Lewis, who shows up? Who? Because
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: you know it's usually it's it's Michael, it's Tank, it's
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: a Diggs, it's Bland who shows up?
• 28:10
  Speaker 5: You know what?
• 28:12
  Speaker 16: I think we'll get a good, a good showing out
• 28:14
  Speaker 16: of the linebackers. I'm hoping, uh for Kendricks to give
• 28:21
  Speaker 16: us week one. Kendricks again, Yeah uh, we you know
• 28:24
  Speaker 16: over shown. We know he's gonna be flying all over
• 28:26
  Speaker 16: the place, so we might see something. I think we'll
• 28:29
  Speaker 16: see something from the linebackers, which I guess it tails
• 28:32
  Speaker 16: That means a big boys of front is gonna hold
• 28:34
  Speaker 16: down the fort for a little while and so they
• 28:36
  Speaker 16: can run around and make plays. So I'll go with
• 28:38
  Speaker 16: the linebackers this this this weekend.
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: All right, Well, they need it, for sure, they need linebackers.
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: This is one of those type of teams. You know,
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: you play the AFC North and that this will be
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: the third game against them with playing the Browns and
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: then the Ravens and now the Steelers and and it's
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: that type of division that's, uh, you know where the
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: linebackers need to play well. They played They played well
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: against Cleveland, not so much against the Ravens or the
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: Saints for that matter. And so this is this is
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: one of those where they have to to step up.
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: It's gonna be a ground and pound type of game. Uh.
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: They run the ball with their quarterback, they run the
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: ball with their backs of course, and uh, the Cowboys
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: are gonna have to be ready for it. So big
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: guys up front, like you said, Mazzie Smith, uh Linval
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: Joseph Osa Odigi Zoo, those guys are gonna have to
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: play well. And you know, let let the linebackers like
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: Kendrick's over shown, Damonte Clark, Lea fal run to the
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: ball make place. It's gonna be that kind of game,
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: all right, Bob and Rio Grand Valley.
• 29:41
  Speaker 6: Nick Bob Great Show yesterday on I I'm like, you
• 29:48
  Speaker 6: got to see three quarters of that game last night, okay,
• 29:51
  Speaker 6: And I won't tell you what stood out. It comes
• 29:55
  Speaker 6: down to those two quarterback. I take Baker Mayfield over
• 29:59
  Speaker 6: a Road Cousins any day. I think because he's far
• 30:03
  Speaker 6: more accurate to particularly in tight situations, that I just
• 30:08
  Speaker 6: like the style. But I'm gonna give credit where credit
• 30:11
  Speaker 6: is due. Heirk Cousins played lights out last night, and
• 30:15
  Speaker 6: one reason why he did was because of their game plan.
• 30:20
  Speaker 6: He threw that ball all over the field. He wasn't
• 30:23
  Speaker 6: centering in on one receiver. He was throwing to everybody,
• 30:28
  Speaker 6: and they just they just kept coming back and coming
• 30:33
  Speaker 6: back and wouldn't quit. And it looked like Tampa Bay
• 30:36
  Speaker 6: had that ball game won, and they didn't. They lost
• 30:39
  Speaker 6: it in overtime. I enjoyed it very much, but I
• 30:41
  Speaker 6: tell you, I was particularly impressed with their passing game plan.
• 30:46
  Speaker 6: The way they spread the ball around. They and they
• 30:50
  Speaker 6: were not afraid to go long. That they kept them
• 30:54
  Speaker 6: off balanced, but they went short, entered me and long
• 30:59
  Speaker 6: they went. They managed to open up the middle of
• 31:02
  Speaker 6: the field to their slot receiver many many times. Through
• 31:07
  Speaker 6: how their their play calling. And that's one of the
• 31:13
  Speaker 6: things I was talking about yesterday, being a little bit
• 31:16
  Speaker 6: critical of Mike. He's so predictable in his play calling
• 31:21
  Speaker 6: and Atlanta was anything but that last night. And with that,
• 31:26
  Speaker 6: thanks for being on the everybody. I enjoy your program
• 31:29
  Speaker 6: immntally and thanks to taking on call.
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: Thank you. I appreciate that. You know, twice this year
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: during the games, I have you know, tweeted out during
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: the game about a particular drive where five or six
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: people got involved. There was one against the Giants where
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: I think seven back through it to seven different players
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: on the drive. Now one of them was to deuce
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: and it got called back for a penalty, so really
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: technically only six uh officially you know caught the ball
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: in that drive, and CD I think had two or
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: three three in that drive, so it wasn't like he's
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: not getting you know, his as well. But that, I
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: think is when this team is the most successful. And
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: I bet you most quarterbacks are the same way. When
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: you when you have a confidence in the receivers, trust
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: in all of the receivers, not just one that you
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: you know you can throw it to. I'm watching highlights
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: of this game right now, you know, And I see
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: cousins throwing around. I see different guys catching it for them,
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: Ray Ray McLeod and Kyle Pitts and Drake London and
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: whoever that guy that caught the touchdown, I forgot his
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: name already. H what a cool moment that that that
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: was though, uh for them, But the Cowboys I have
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: had success that they did that in a drive against
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: the Browns. They did that against the Giants. And and
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: when when they when they are you know, when it's
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: CD here and Cooks here and Ferguson for a couple
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden there's Tolbert and then
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: out of the backfield is Zeke or Rico, and then
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: Lipke joins in and then now Schoonmaker gets something. When
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: you're doing it like that, you're spreading that defense all
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: over the field, that's when the offense really has a
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: chance to make a lot of plays. And so I
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: think that that's a great recipe for success. All right,
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: let's go to Travis in San Antonio.
• 33:20
  Speaker 17: Happy Friday, Nick Friday, Chris as well. Hopefully you guys
• 33:24
  Speaker 17: have a safe travel to Pittsburgh. Just wanted to say
• 33:27
  Speaker 17: that and enjoy the game. Hopefully everyone enjoys the football weekend.
• 33:33
  Speaker 17: And the only thing I was going to say is
• 33:36
  Speaker 17: I've been sitting here thinking about it, and I've been
• 33:38
  Speaker 17: a I'm a big I was a soccer kid growing
• 33:41
  Speaker 17: up first, so I still follow the US men's national team.
• 33:43
  Speaker 17: And they just hired Mauricio Pochettino, who's like a top
• 33:47
  Speaker 17: five coach in the world. And I watched his first interview,
• 33:50
  Speaker 17: Nick Nick, and he was asked, you know, what's the
• 33:53
  Speaker 17: thing you got to change with this team, and he said,
• 33:56
  Speaker 17: I believe about twenty seven times believe believe. And I
• 34:00
  Speaker 17: started thinking about this game. And even though I have
• 34:02
  Speaker 17: my reservations right and I have my doubts, it doesn't
• 34:05
  Speaker 17: you know, we've all we've had think You've said it before.
• 34:07
  Speaker 17: It doesn't matter what I think. It just matters what
• 34:09
  Speaker 17: they believe in the locker room. So maybe if I'm
• 34:13
  Speaker 17: taking a positive spin for you for this weekend and
• 34:15
  Speaker 17: bring this back around, maybe this game, with the injuries
• 34:17
  Speaker 17: they have, maybe we can look at this and say
• 34:21
  Speaker 17: this is where they can kind of start getting over
• 34:23
  Speaker 17: the Green Bay stuff in those first two games, where
• 34:26
  Speaker 17: if you can pull this game out, maybe you kind
• 34:29
  Speaker 17: of start in that locker room to believe. Okay, you
• 34:32
  Speaker 17: know we were we were down michaeh, we were down Tank,
• 34:36
  Speaker 17: we were down Cooks. You know, we're banged up, but
• 34:39
  Speaker 17: we found a way to win. It could be I
• 34:42
  Speaker 17: can make the argument it could be the kind of
• 34:44
  Speaker 17: win where it starts that belief and then maybe that
• 34:47
  Speaker 17: bleeds over in the next couple of games, which we've
• 34:49
  Speaker 17: you know, we've outlined they're gonna be tough. But I
• 34:52
  Speaker 17: just want to see what you thought. But like I said,
• 34:54
  Speaker 17: maybe it's an opportunity to kind of start that belief of, like,
• 34:57
  Speaker 17: you know what, we probably shouldn't won this game, but
• 34:59
  Speaker 17: we did, and just keep that going. So just hopefully
• 35:02
  Speaker 17: you guys have a great weekend. Like I said, say
• 35:04
  Speaker 17: travels and talk to you next week.
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: Thank you, Travis. You know it's happened before. I mean
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: it happened two years ago, twenty twenty two. I mean,
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: that was the worst Week one loss you could have.
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: They were terrible against the Bucks at home, lost nineteen
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: to three, couldn't do anything, and then to make it worse,
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: that gets hurt breaks his thumb at the end of
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: the game. A couple of other starters were out of
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: that game, got hurt, and that they were going to
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: be out. It was like, Wow, this is going to
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: be a really long season. What are they going to do?
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: YEA Cooper Rush is going to be the quarterback now,
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: and the Cowboys rallied around them. The defense kind of
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: came together and they won five in a row, six
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: seven out of eight, and it was impressive. It was
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: a very very impressive turnaround. You know, it's been well
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: documented that when the Ackers won the Super Bowl, as
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: Mike McCarthy was the coach, I think they had eighteen
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: players that went to injury reserve that year. And it's
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: not the same injury reserve as it was as it
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: is now where you just kind of go to ir
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: come back in four weeks. It was different. I mean,
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: they were out for the season, so they figured out
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: a way.
• 36:16
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: Now one of those guys was not Aaron Rodgers. I
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: understand that, and they were able to win it all.
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: But the point is is this is where your coaching
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: comes into play. This is where the belief that you're
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: talking about, Mike McCarthy's got to be able to do
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: that and get this team ready to go. The leaders
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: like you know, DAK and CD and those guys have
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: to have to step up as well. So you know,
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: we've seen it on the other side of the ball.
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: Maybe this time the offense can do that. Let's take
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: our last break here on Cowboys storyline. We'll be right

  Speaker 18: the guys last night in the spaces, I was like, man,
• 38:25
  Speaker 18: he's gonna kick me off the storyline team and I
• 38:26
  Speaker 18: got to get in Friday. So I'm glad to get in. Brother.
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: Who was on who was on that call last night
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: on the Capital on the spaces? Uh for Twitter? Who
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: was on there?
• 38:37
  Speaker 13: Who?
• 38:37
  Speaker 12: Like?
• 38:37
  Speaker 8: Uh?
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 38:39
  Speaker 6: Like us?
• 38:40
  Speaker 7: It was like Dylan Dylan was on there.
• 38:42
  Speaker 18: Irene was on there, but we had Chris Bean. Chris
• 38:45
  Speaker 18: Bean came in. He he showed up a little bit.
• 38:47
  Speaker 18: He was listening in. That was pretty cool. Rob was
• 38:50
  Speaker 18: in there. But as soon as Rob gets in there, though, man,
• 38:52
  Speaker 18: it's like it's hard to get a word in.
• 38:54
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 38:55
  Speaker 18: You know, he likes to talk man, which is cool.
• 38:56
  Speaker 18: We love the fashion. Uh, there's a lot of people. Man,
• 38:59
  Speaker 18: it's a really really good time and we get together,
• 39:00
  Speaker 18: we chat it up and stuff. And so I was
• 39:02
  Speaker 18: able to feel like I was still part of the
• 39:03
  Speaker 18: show by by joining by joining the spaces last night,
• 39:06
  Speaker 18: but but not real quick, man, I just wanted to
• 39:08
  Speaker 18: throw my prediction and kind of like just little gut feeling,
• 39:11
  Speaker 18: little gut feeling. I feel like this week's one of
• 39:14
  Speaker 18: those weeks where you know, you got a lot of
• 39:17
  Speaker 18: people that are out, you got people that are injured,
• 39:19
  Speaker 18: a lot of things that we feel like, oh, Cooks
• 39:22
  Speaker 18: should have been elevated, he should play this, and that
• 39:24
  Speaker 18: this just seems like the kind of week that the
• 39:26
  Speaker 18: cowboys just come out and they just shut us up
• 39:29
  Speaker 18: and they just get the job done somehow, some way.
• 39:31
  Speaker 18: They come in. The run defense is gonna look good
• 39:34
  Speaker 18: for some reason. I don't know why, but these young
• 39:36
  Speaker 18: guys are just gonna come in and they're just gonna
• 39:38
  Speaker 18: get it done.
• 39:38
  Speaker 7: Man.
• 39:38
  Speaker 18: I've watched this team long enough that whenever you count
• 39:41
  Speaker 18: them out, that's when they decide to step up and
• 39:43
  Speaker 18: will be consistent after that. I don't know, but this
• 39:45
  Speaker 18: is gonna be the game that they're gonna come through
• 39:47
  Speaker 18: and they're you know, they're gonna fight, and that's really
• 39:49
  Speaker 18: what I want to see. My prediction is gonna be.
• 39:52
  Speaker 18: I believe it's gonna be pretty close. I think Dak
• 39:53
  Speaker 18: is gonna really put this team on his shoulders this week.
• 39:56
  Speaker 18: I'm gonna go thirty to twenty seven, Dallas Calvis, You're
• 39:59
  Speaker 18: gonna win, man. So that's all I wanted to say.
• 40:01
  Speaker 7: I love you guys.
• 40:02
  Speaker 18: I'm not going to sing to you, Nick, but maybe
• 40:03
  Speaker 18: one day I'll get the Cursis sing to you like
• 40:05
  Speaker 18: was it Anthony in Miami. One day I'll get the
• 40:07
  Speaker 18: Cursis thing to you like that, brother, Have a great data,
• 40:09
  Speaker 18: all right?
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: Thank you? Yeah? Anthony was was singing yesterday, singing, this
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: is how we do it. We change it up a
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: little bit. It was nice. I liked it. No offense
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: to the original though of Montel. No one's taking his place. David,
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: I just I'm with you, and I don't know why.
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: I'm like, I don't know the answer of like how
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: it's going to get done. And I did my gut
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: feeling I wrote that, and I was like, it's just
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: because I'm just going back of what I've seen in
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: the past. And I took back a few games. I
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: just remember. It depends on how far you want to
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: go back. You want to go back thirty years or so.
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: Back in ninety five, you know, the forty nine Ers
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: were beat up and Steve Young wasn't playing, and Cowboys
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: were rolling, and they had Dion and took him from
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: the Niners and Elvis gerbacks to the quarterback and they
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: came in into Texas Tadium. He waxed the Cowboys. I
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: remember a game where some guy named Jake Delone was
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: the quarterback for the Saints. Surely the Cowboys will beat them. No, No,
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: he had you know, he won the game. I remember
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: against the Chargers a few years ago where they had
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: four offensive linemen out and I think Philip Rivers still
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: through for four hundred yards against them. Jason Garrett has
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: done that on the flip side. Oh eight men's out,
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: Garrett comes in and Cooper Rush comes It's what I
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: just mentioned. So when it's that just goes down to
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: just a weird league. It's just a weird league. And
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: anytime that you just think it's not gonna happen, they
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: flip it. As I say that, as I and I
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: watched two TV screens and I have seen this guy
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: named Alonso hit this home run for the Mets like
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: thirty two times during this show. I mean, I know
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: what happened last night. I know it was a huge
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: playoff moment there, but that also seems like just when
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: you think it's over and it's down, somebody comes in
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: and makes it. Who's going to be the Pete Alonzo
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: for the Cowboys for this game? I don't know. All right,
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: let's keep let's keep the phone lines going. Here. We
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: got Ryan. He's in Statesville, North Carolina. I don't think
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: I've ever said that before. Ryan, Statesville.
• 42:21
  Speaker 10: Yeah, first first time call. I met you and Amer
• 42:24
  Speaker 10: in the Washington Redskins a couple of years ago and
• 42:28
  Speaker 10: talk to y'all.
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: Okay, how's it going.
• 42:31
  Speaker 10: It's going good? I just got took quick question, why
• 42:34
  Speaker 10: does the Cowboys not have a lot of priest snow
• 42:39
  Speaker 10: shift and an emotion and before the priest snow Uh.
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: If I don't have a good answer for you, Huh,
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: I don't have a good answer for you there. I
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: mean because they're one of the worst teams. I mean,
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: they do it the least amount of any team in
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: the league, like maybe twenty ninth or thirtieth. There's not
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: I mean most teams are doing more motion than they are,
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: and that they're just not They're not right.
• 43:05
  Speaker 10: And you know how you know when when we play
• 43:08
  Speaker 10: the forty nine ers, they do a lot of pre
• 43:10
  Speaker 10: snap motion and the shifting, and that confuses and that
• 43:13
  Speaker 10: makes Micah pauls as for men and models, the preezes
• 43:17
  Speaker 10: the linebackers, and I think that will help out line
• 43:19
  Speaker 10: out with blocking and prep play action. And if you
• 43:24
  Speaker 10: know this, if me and you was to take a
• 43:27
  Speaker 10: pre snap and a post snap photo, both of them
• 43:30
  Speaker 10: looks identical. And then when they do motion for motion,
• 43:38
  Speaker 10: they it's either a jet sweep or effect fake jet
• 43:42
  Speaker 10: sweep or a jet sweet swing pass. That them was
• 43:46
  Speaker 10: kind of tell tale science.
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and also what it does too It makes the
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: defense have to communicate. They have to do that like
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: when you're doing motion. That's why motion on the road
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: is very important because on the road, when it's third
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: and eight or whatever, you know, the crowd is going crazy.
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: You know, they want to mess up the communication for
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: the offense. But you do a lot of shifting, do
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: a lot of motion, do a lot of moving this
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: guy over here. Linebackers have to do the same thing.
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: They have the same problem. So it's very important to
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: to put motion in there. And I can't tell you
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: why the Cowboys don't do it. And it also it
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: eliminates the opportunity to really just like have two guys
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: to just beat up on CD because that's what happened
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: in the Ravens game, and they couldn't get him off
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: the line, get him in motion a little bit, get him,
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: get him a head start. You're not gonna be able
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: to put your hands on a player as much. Also,
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: you can stack. You can stack a player, you know,
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: behind another receiver. So now they got a very free release.
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: So there's a lot of different things that you can
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: do there. I can't tell you why they do it
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: or don't do it. It's just you. You would have
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: thought that they would by now that they haven't. Did
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: we did we get him? Here? We go on Chris
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: on the on Ryan? Did he get one for there?
• 45:15
  Speaker 2: We go?
• 45:15
  Speaker 7: Right?
• 45:16
  Speaker 10: Well there, real quick, real quick? Nick Uh. You know
• 45:20
  Speaker 10: when Cole Beesley used to be here and they used
• 45:22
  Speaker 10: to do the option routes. They not have anybody that
• 45:26
  Speaker 10: they trust that can be re be on the same
• 45:29
  Speaker 10: page with Dak and be able to sit down on
• 45:31
  Speaker 10: the zone or notice of this man to be able
• 45:34
  Speaker 10: to run the correct route. Is that the problem why
• 45:36
  Speaker 10: they don't trust anybody who running option routes because that
• 45:40
  Speaker 10: used to be a level of confidence that that used
• 45:43
  Speaker 10: to go to when you know everybody else was covered.
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean there's not a lot of guys like
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: Cole Beasley, Like he was a very very great route
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: runner and he had a he had an unbelievable role
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: uh with this with this team, and so that there's
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: not a lot of guys like that. You can't just say, now,
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: who's the next Cole Beasley? There? It It takes somebody
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: with with you know, that understanding of how to get
• 46:08
  Speaker 2: open uh and and has that quickness, has that that
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: ability to stop and start like that, and also to
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: know what the defenses are doing and to play that underneath.
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: So know that they they don't have that just because
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: you're a shorter guy, just because you're you know, you're quick,
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: that's not necessarily your game. That's not Brandon Cooks's game.
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: His game is not that He might look very similar,
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: I guess if they were standing next to august in
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: height with Cole Beasley, but but they're not the same player.
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: And so just because you have the same kind of
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: body type doesn't make make you that. And and they
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: they they have not found that guy the same they
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: thought they did maybe with a guy like Ryan Switzer,
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: and they've tried, you know, to to replace him. But
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: those guys can be very valuable at times. But you
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: also got to make sure you've got some great players
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: on the app as well, because those receivers can't play
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: on the outside. I always thought Dez and Beasley were
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: perfect matches for each other because De's not playing on
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: the inside in the slot and Besley's not playing on
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: the outside. So the fact that they were able to
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: play together for so long, that was great. All right,
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: let's go to Nico and Colorado Springs.
• 47:18
  Speaker 5: Hey, what's up, Nick?
• 47:19
  Speaker 7: How you doing today? Buddy good?
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: How are you good?
• 47:22
  Speaker 7: I feel like I owe you an explanation. Look, man,
• 47:25
  Speaker 7: I was a little heeded on my take the other day.
• 47:27
  Speaker 7: I know you have such a big love for the Joneses.
• 47:30
  Speaker 7: I didn't mean anything by it, but I wanted to
• 47:32
  Speaker 7: explain because when I listened back, you said, that is
• 47:35
  Speaker 7: the weirdest call I've ever had on this show. So
• 47:38
  Speaker 7: up and down. Welcome to being a Cowboys fan. Welcome
• 47:41
  Speaker 7: to our season right life?
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: Okay, not just seasoned life life?
• 47:45
  Speaker 7: Yes, absolutely, I mean I'm a corrections officer. Trust me,
• 47:48
  Speaker 7: I see the good and the bad. Well, here's my point.
• 47:51
  Speaker 2: You should have started that time out. You're a correction officer.
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: All you said was is that your your family went
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: to jail or got arrested. Wait? Yeah, did you have
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: any hand in that?
• 48:03
  Speaker 7: I was twelve at that time.
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: Man.
• 48:04
  Speaker 7: Of course, I'm gonna take my mom's side. How about
• 48:06
  Speaker 7: them Cowboys?
• 48:07
  Speaker 2: Alright? Alright, alright, alright, cool.
• 48:08
  Speaker 7: But let me explain. Okay, let me explain, Nick. Have
• 48:11
  Speaker 7: you ever seen the meme on any social media platform?
• 48:15
  Speaker 7: It's an old man sitting on a bench with an umbrella,
• 48:18
  Speaker 7: and it literally says, just because I'm mad at you
• 48:21
  Speaker 7: doesn't mean I don't love you. And he's holding the
• 48:23
  Speaker 7: umbrella and it's over either the old man's wife or
• 48:27
  Speaker 7: in our case, that star. Have you ever seen that?
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: I haven't, but I can picture it, and I gets
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: ok it.
• 48:33
  Speaker 7: At the end of my calls, I always say two things.
• 48:36
  Speaker 7: Let's go Cowboys and let's get rowdy. That's what I
• 48:40
  Speaker 7: always say. Now we're getting blown out this week. I'm sorry.
• 48:43
  Speaker 7: I'm sticking to it. My family's gonna cheer half my side.
• 48:47
  Speaker 7: The family's gonna cheer for it. But I'm still gonna say,
• 48:51
  Speaker 7: let's go Cowboys and let's get roudy. Now, with that
• 48:54
  Speaker 7: being said, Nick, I hope you understand that. Much love
• 48:57
  Speaker 7: to you and the crew. I'm gonna get out of
• 48:59
  Speaker 7: here and let you guys have a great weekend. Let's
• 49:01
  Speaker 7: go Cowboys and let's get rowdy.
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: All right? All right? I get that point. I I
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: do get that. I mean, I understand that just is
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: just because you're you know, you're a fan of the team,
• 49:11
  Speaker 2: doesn't mean that that you think they're gonna win every
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: game and all that. I'm dealing with that. I know
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: my razorbacks are probably not gonna win this week against Tennessee.
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: I get that. I understand that, and I and I
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: get the whole, the whole part about the meme that
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: that you're saying, I haven't seen that, I don't think,
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: but I get it. I mean, it's it's you know,
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: the Cowboys are your family, and it's like, you know,
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: you have kids. Everybody who has kids understands that they
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: do things that are that are very disappointing to you
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: at times, and they frustrate you. Doesn't mean you don't
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: love them, doesn't mean you're going to disown them, doesn't
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: mean you're gonna put them up for adoption, as my
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: son said to me one time. But the point is
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: is that the Cowboys are your team. Cowboys are your kids,
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: and so yeah, they disappoint you, but but still on Sunday, Sunday,
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: you know, Sunday morning, like let's go, let's let's see
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: it what they what they do and what they shine.
• 50:05
  Speaker 2: So I do understand that the whole the whole call
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: was was was a little it was a little crazy
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: last week. I get it, though, thanks for calling back,
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: though no hard feelings. I'm I'm sure and I and
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: I get that. I say it all the time. Being
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: a Cowboy fan is the greatest roller coaster ride ever.
• 50:22
  Speaker 2: And and it'll make you it'll make you throw up
• 50:25
  Speaker 2: at times, it'll get you excited and you're like, oh
• 50:28

• 50:31
  Speaker 2: you're like, get me off this ride, hurry up, unbuckle
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: my seat belt here. I'm never riding this again. And
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: maybe thirty minutes later, once you once you you know,
