  Speaker 4: to it. And I was on I was on the
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: edge of my couch. Man with that many this has
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: changed up with that field goal, I mean, that point happening,
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: and I'm just like, oh, that's all we gotta do
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: is do this right. And we asked you knock him out.
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: My neighbors a Mingos fan. He ain't called me that,
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: thank god. He ain't got on my nerves about it yet.
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: But I know it's coming. Yeah, I know it's coming.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: I mean when you've never won anything, you know, like
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: here ever and then and then you know, and you're
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: a team and let's face it, you know they're not
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: any good. I mean they're they they got good players,
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: but they're not any good.
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: And yeah, they say your record is who you saying?
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: That's what we lost. That's my lost, because I.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: You can't can't put put things together. You can't, you know.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: I mean, and they were fighting, they were battling, but you.
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: Know, winna little game like when you know just when,
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: and like I'm with you. I heard them the show
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: the other day. He said that fumble that Beings made,
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: that was a fumble.
• 3:20
  Speaker 7: They wasn't.
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: Of course we got it back, but that was a fumble.
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: I mean, come on, man, he even tried to juke
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: out of it. He had the ball.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: Anyways, I agree, I thought that was a bad That
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: was a bad call there, and and I I think
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: that was one that that should have been looked at
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: a little bit further.
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: You're talking about yelling at the TV. Yeah, I was screaming.
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: I was all those holding calls not being called. I mean,
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: of course we got a couple of calls on on
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: outside too, but I mean, it was just it was
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: like out of hand, man, it was out of hand.
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: I'm glad I'm not a player, so I get to
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: say that they can be mad at me, all they won't. Yeah,
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: he did a rough job, but that was a I
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: don't know what that was. I don't even know anyways, right,
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: so you know, I'm gonna try to try to be positive.
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: My boy Rico, he had one hundred and thirty seven yards.
• 4:10
  Speaker 8: He did it.
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: I said he was gonna do it again, right, I
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: did say that, right, Yes, But what I did say
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: is if they score twenty eight points or least, we
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: could win. And guess what, that.
• 4:21
  Speaker 9: Didn't come true.
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: So yeah, my spirits is hurt. But looking forward to
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: the past of the game, I think it's going to
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: be another fight. Man. Yeah, I honestly believe that. I
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: think that, you know, even though I hate the Carolina Pats,
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: I think they're gonna come in there and try to
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: beat us. I really believe that.
• 4:41
  Speaker 9: I believe that the.
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: Only way we win this game is with turnovers and
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: running the ball and keeping the ball out of Bryce
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: Young's hands, because he's actually turning into a decent quarterback.
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: A lot of people don't want to say that, but
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: you got to get a guy credit. He's out there
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: throwing the ball, getting out the pocket. He's not perfect,
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: but he he's a force. He's actually a force, especially
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: because he can run it. You know how we are
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: running quarter base. Yeah, just like Burrows stepping up in
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: that pocket. So, you know, I just wanted to call
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: in and say, you know, go Cowboys. I hope you're
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: having a good week, and shout out to all my
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: storyliners out there. I'll be joining the team soon, we all,
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: so give me a little spot.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: Sounds good, Man, sounds good, Carolina, you'd be safe on
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: the road. Appreciate that. Uh yeah, I mean the Panthers,
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: it just looks it just looks different. I mean, I
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: don't know the record, doesn't you know, they're not winning
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: any games, but it looks different from what they were
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: doing last year. I mean I think they were. They're
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: probably had about the same record, but you could just tell,
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: you know, you take the Chiefs to the wire, battling
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: the Eagles on the road. You know, they they're they're
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: buying in and and they're they're they're playing hard and
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: still trying to win games. So, uh, you know, that
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: with that, that's going to be a fight, you know. There.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: This is one that they they probably say, Look, how
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: we play this game, Look how we play in this game.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: So let's go and play Dallas and let's win, you know.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: And and I'm sure that that's that's a mindset for them.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: But you know, the Cowboys should should feel it on
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: the other side too. They should, they should kind of
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: you know thing, Hey, this is a game that could
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: go win. And this is a young quarterback. You got
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: to get after them. And so you know, if they
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: prepare the right way this week, it's a game that
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: they should go win. All right, Gary in New Mexico
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: is next. Gary's how's it going great? How are you man?
• 6:32
  Speaker 7: Hey? That was a fun game Monday night, except for
• 6:34
  Speaker 7: the end. I mean, I enjoyed watching them run the ball.
• 6:37
  Speaker 7: That part's getting better watching some of these young alignement
• 6:40
  Speaker 7: improve try I'm trying to keep it positive. Which brings
• 6:43
  Speaker 7: me to my trivia question for you for this week,
• 6:45
  Speaker 7: because it is a very sobering answer to this trivia question.
• 6:48
  Speaker 7: Not to be pretty easy. Okay, you remember, let's let's
• 6:52
  Speaker 7: go back to nineteen ninety six. Okay, Carolina Panthers remember
• 6:56
  Speaker 7: the playoff game they didn't a playoff at Carolina ninety six.
• 6:59
  Speaker 7: That that is the worst loss in Cowboys history bar none,
• 7:03
  Speaker 7: because you have a Super Bowl champion losing to a
• 7:05
  Speaker 7: second year expansion team. Okay, here's the background for the
• 7:09
  Speaker 7: trivia question. Going into that playoff game. In nineteen ninety six,
• 7:12
  Speaker 7: Dallas was a defending Super Bowl champs. They were coming
• 7:15
  Speaker 7: off of their thirty second postseason victory of the past
• 7:19
  Speaker 7: thirty years. That means, during the Super Bowl era up
• 7:22
  Speaker 7: to that point, the Cowboys averaged more than a playoff
• 7:25
  Speaker 7: win a year for thirty straight years. How many playoff victories?
• 7:30
  Speaker 7: How many playoff victories have the Cowboys had since then?
• 7:39
  Speaker 7: Seven four four they've won four playoff games.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: Two for Romo, two for Romo, two for that. That's right.
• 7:48
  Speaker 7: Yeah, they went from averaging more than a playoff win
• 7:52
  Speaker 7: a year now they averaged one playoff victory every seven
• 7:55
  Speaker 7: years for the last twenty eight years, all in the
• 7:58
  Speaker 7: first round. I mean, that's ridiculous. And there's and there's
• 8:01
  Speaker 7: one common that there's two common denominators and all that,
• 8:03
  Speaker 7: and that's Jerry and Stevens. But that's another show for
• 8:06
  Speaker 7: another time. But yeah, yeah, I mean it's it's sad,
• 8:11
  Speaker 7: and and they do some good things, they draft and
• 8:14
  Speaker 7: develop well, but then they send fourth round picks for
• 8:17
  Speaker 7: players that never play that you know that they build
• 8:20
  Speaker 7: up good teams, and then they do something stupid for
• 8:22
  Speaker 7: no unknown for some unknown reason that just sort of
• 8:25
  Speaker 7: messes things up, and it's frustrating as a fan. And
• 8:28
  Speaker 7: here's my point for this year's team, And this is
• 8:30
  Speaker 7: what's so frustrating. They've had all year to figure this
• 8:34
  Speaker 7: stuff out. Okay, I don't think they constructed this team
• 8:37
  Speaker 7: very well, but I don't think they've managed it very
• 8:39
  Speaker 7: well as constructed. We've all known that Rico Dawdle was
• 8:43
  Speaker 7: the best back, but it's we don't get to see
• 8:46
  Speaker 7: him as a featured back until the eleventh game of
• 8:48
  Speaker 7: the season. He should have been. They shouldn't have taken
• 8:52
  Speaker 7: him this long to figure out this running game. I
• 8:54
  Speaker 7: know the offensive line was young and they're doing some things,
• 8:57
  Speaker 7: but Rico's clearly your best bag. But yeah, we want
• 9:00
  Speaker 7: to mess around with Dalvin Cook and Deuce Bond and
• 9:02
  Speaker 7: Ezekiel Elliott. And I don't know who's to blame for that,
• 9:05
  Speaker 7: is if the management is that the coaches but it
• 9:08
  Speaker 7: was malfeasance of the team.
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: Time out and Gary hold on time.
• 9:12
  Speaker 7: Okay, go ahead.
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: It has been starting all year, I mean he's been
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: starting pretty much a year long, like, but.
• 9:19
  Speaker 7: But not as a feature back. They haven't. They've been
• 9:21
  Speaker 7: feeding him the last three weeks and look how much
• 9:23
  Speaker 7: better they've looked. And maybe there's more to it. Because
• 9:26
  Speaker 7: I'm not in the building, I don't know what's going on, but.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: I think I think Rico's a solid running back that
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: is pretty good. He's a bat. He's a number two
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: running back for any team in the league, and I agree,
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: And so he's had moments. You know, I like him,
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: and I think he's playing better, and I think they've
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: got some things figured out, especially with Cooper Rush and
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: all that. But but it's not he's not. I mean,
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: he'll fumble the ball, you know, here and there and
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: he'll drop it, and I mean he's he's a good, good,
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: solid back. He's running it well and he's got some
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: confidence going now. But I think he's had some chances too.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: And I'm not just putting it on him or whatever.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: I think they're they've had to manage this thing the
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: right way, and I think they're coming together a little
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: bit now on the running game. Obviously too little, too late,
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: But I just don't think it was like he was
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: the backup the whole season and now he comes in.
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: It's like, what have we been doing the whole time?
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: You know? But I don't know what's going on with Zeke.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: I don't know what's going on with Zeke. I just
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: I don't think this is working, and I don't think
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: they I don't think the Cowboys want to do what
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: probably should be done.
• 10:34
  Speaker 7: I don't think they want I agree, I agree with
• 10:37
  Speaker 7: you on that, and I think that's part of the problem.
• 10:39
  Speaker 7: But hey, they're not as far away as people think.
• 10:42
  Speaker 7: Things can turn quickly in this in this age of
• 10:44
  Speaker 7: the NFL. So well, like I say, I like the
• 10:46
  Speaker 7: positive things I'm seeing from some of the young guys.
• 10:49
  Speaker 7: And and we always got next year.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: Right always you always have all Right.
• 10:55
  Speaker 7: Enjoy the show, Thank you, love.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: The trivia questions. One wasn't as good and kind of
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: or it was it was fine. It just I didn't
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: I wasn't ready for it. I guess uh man for
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: four playoff wins and I knew that. I don't know why. Yeah,
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: it's not good there, Chris, thanks for piling on. Yeah,
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: Dak has two wins in the play and he did
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: say all in the first round had some divisional games
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: in there, but nobody cares about that. I remember when
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: Wade Phillips was trying to convince the media and fans,
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: I guess that when you're in the divisional round, it's
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: like a playoff win, you know, like when you get
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: a buye because you got to buy so it's like
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: getting a playoff win. And everybody was like, no, no,
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: that's not I mean, good try and and and your
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: point is is valid, but you don't get a playoff
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: win for that. All right? Robbie and Coco beats Florida,
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: the co host of the show What's Up.
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: Hey man?
• 12:02
  Speaker 10: I wanted to, uh to extrapolate a little bit on
• 12:04
  Speaker 10: what I said Yesterda about Micah. You kind of defended him,
• 12:08
  Speaker 10: and I was totally on the same path with you.
• 12:10
  Speaker 10: I liked seeing that I liked him.
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: I thought you did. I thought you did. I didn't
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: think you did. It was more about you're obviously responding
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: to somebody who didn't like that.
• 12:21
  Speaker 10: That's what yeah, So I and I was like, I
• 12:23
  Speaker 10: want to see that. I want to see Mike lernburn
• 12:25
  Speaker 10: out there screaming and yelling, yeah, pissed off after we
• 12:29
  Speaker 10: lose the game and Micah put it all out there
• 12:31
  Speaker 10: yesterday and then seeing poor Demo go down man, and
• 12:34
  Speaker 10: hearing the injury news. Oh that's a shame man.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's pretty bad. I mean, yeah, that's bad. And
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: if you're going to do it, you'd like, you know,
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: it's like, you know, Trayvon Trayvon Diggs had the injury
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: week three. Sam Williams had it in training camp. You know,
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: they should be ready to go, but man, have it
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: in December.
• 12:52
  Speaker 10: That's yeah, year and a half.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: Maybe. Now, let's let's remember this. Like Michael Gallup, who's
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: a receiver, you know, he had the injury in the
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: in like I think it was January the second against
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: the Cardinals at the end of the season and that
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: what was that twenty and twenty one. I don't make years.
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: My years getting kind of confusing when it gets to
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: this year.
• 13:19
  Speaker 7: Get old.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: I'm getting old. I can tell you the difference between
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: eighty eight, eighty nine to ninety all that stuff, But
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: the last year or three years, I'm like, I don't remember.
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: It was one of these years that that he in
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: one of those games he got hurt and he came
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: back like week three, week three, week four, So yeah,
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: but was that.
• 13:35
  Speaker 10: Too early for him? And we know he didn't have
• 13:37
  Speaker 10: a good year when he came back, and everybody's fair
• 13:39
  Speaker 10: said he was ready, but then he didn't play very well. Fair,
• 13:42
  Speaker 10: but then the next year he was out right.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but you know he might have had but he
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: might have had some other things going on. I don't know,
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: but but yeah, I mean that that's fair. But gall's
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: not built like Demo. I mean I know that no,
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: as far as you know, just the men, old focus
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: and all that. So we'll see, I mean, but but
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: then again, I mean a cl mcl PCL.
• 14:09
  Speaker 10: I mean, yeah, it was all of it almost totally right. Yeah,
• 14:12
  Speaker 10: it's pretty bad. I'll be saying some prayers for him. Hey,
• 14:15
  Speaker 10: the change the news something a little happier. You got
• 14:17
  Speaker 10: a good story about Patrick Creighton. I always liked watching
• 14:20
  Speaker 10: him play and Monroemo were fun to see each other.
• 14:22
  Speaker 10: All right, And I'll let you guys go and get luck.
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: Talk to you later next all right, thanks? Yeah, I
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: mean I said this the other day about Patrick Creyton
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: I mean, I did tell the story, so I feel
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: like I am, you know, repeating myself. But just the
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: game in two thousand and nine where he was demoted
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: twice for two positions of punt returner and receiver in
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: the same week. He lost two positions in the same week,
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: and he wasn't happy about it. And he comes back
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: in the next game against the Falcons and scores two touchdowns,
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: one as a punt returner and one as a receiver.
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: Just kind of goes the show. Stay focused, stay the course,
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: keep your head up, and keep doing the right thing.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: And I feel like I told this story. Somebody asked
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: about superstitions. I know he always had to eat gummy
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: worms and stuff like that. I don't have any other
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: really stories. I mean, I know, I know he was
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: one in college that he was kind of the the
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: pet cat by a couple of scouts that just had
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: found him in Northwest Oklahoma. And he had done everything
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: punt return, kick return, wide receiver, quarterback. I mean, he
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: did it. He did it all. And uh, he was
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: a good player for the cot was good, a good,
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: solid player. You know, everyone that remembers him for the
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: drops or a couple of plays there in that Giants
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: playoff game, which is unfortunate. Unfortunate part of that is
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: he had great hands and he's known for drop you know,
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: it happens like that. But yeah, I mean he's he's
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: still around doing some stuff and he's he's a he'd
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: be good. But if if you had the time and
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: he wanted to do it, to be good on these
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: shows with you know, like Jesse and all them, because
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: he's not afraid to tell you what he thinks. Uh,
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: there's no doubt about that. Let's go to Jeremy in Washington,
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: d C. Is next.
• 16:13
  Speaker 8: Hey, yo, Nick, what's up?
• 16:16
  Speaker 9: What's up?
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: Man?
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: How are you? I'm good? Good? What's going on?
• 16:20
  Speaker 9: What's that man? How that squirrel doing?
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: I think he made it. I think the squirrel made it.
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: You know, either that or he didn't make it and
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: somebody cleaned it up. But I think he made it.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: They always make it. Yeah, backstory, if you didn't listen,
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: Jeremy asked me if i'd heard anyone. I said, last
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: was Friday. I said, I might have heard a squirrel
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: this morning. Uh he was running under the truck. I
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: didn't I didn't see him. I didn't see anything. So
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: I didn't really, I didn't hear the bump, but you
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: know whatever, I don't know. I think he made it.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: He's good. Let's just assume. Nope, not today, not today,
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: not so I know, right. I mean, you know you
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: really need to ask. I mean you ask you when
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: you call in and Chris answers, ask Chris if he
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: heard anyone?
• 17:08
  Speaker 9: You know that that's that's I just asked Chris, did
• 17:10
  Speaker 9: he stay out of trouble?
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: And ask if he's hurting anyone? Because he might just.
• 17:17
  Speaker 9: Kidding what's going on?
• 17:19
  Speaker 11: Man?
• 17:19
  Speaker 9: Don't call the duty. But yeah, I don't really got
• 17:23
  Speaker 9: much to day. I just wanted to know, like is
• 17:26
  Speaker 9: there a reason why we don't like put Cavante turpin
• 17:31
  Speaker 9: and like situations like when we had Cole Beasley, Because
• 17:35
  Speaker 9: I don't understand why we keep throwing uh them deep
• 17:39
  Speaker 9: passes to a guy that's like five eight and the
• 17:42
  Speaker 9: defenders are six two. So I just want to know,
• 17:46
  Speaker 9: like is there like I don't understand, like why we
• 17:49
  Speaker 9: can't do like the little zig routes they can dump
• 17:52
  Speaker 9: routes like we used to run with Cole Beasley, Like
• 17:56
  Speaker 9: why we can't do none of that?
• 17:58
  Speaker 12: What?
• 17:58
  Speaker 9: What my man torpedo.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: I've got some answers to that. I'm not saying that
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: they'll be right, But first of all, I don't it's
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: nothing against Turpin because I don't know if you've ever
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: had other than Amari Cooper. I think Amari Cooper and
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: Cole Beasley are probably your best route runners you've ever
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: had here. He Cole Beasley knew how to run routes
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: and he knew how to run routes in this offense,
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: uh to the I mean to the highest level. And
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: of course he did, because that's how a guy that
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: looks like him can play in the NFL for that long,
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: because he understands concepts and he understands how to run routes.
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: And I'm not saying Turpin doesn't. I'm saying Beasley did
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: it better than anyone. That's what's set him apart, and
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: so that's what helped him get in there. Turpin doesn't
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: run routes like that. He's not as natural as of
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: a receiver. Now, why throw passes deep like that.
• 18:55
  Speaker 7: Type of right? Was right?
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: No?
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: I you one of those what.
• 19:02
  Speaker 9: Type of route do you run? There? Because he was
• 19:04
  Speaker 9: the leading receiver for that lead So I'm just like
• 19:08
  Speaker 9: hmiliar with You're.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: You're not wrong, You're not wrong. And also, when you
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: are going to throw deep passes to him, can you
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: put it in the field of play? I mean there,
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: there's fifty three yards wide, you know. I mean, let's
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: let's throw it in the fifty three yards that are
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: that you can, you know, make it play in throwing it.
• 19:26
  Speaker 9: Tought that one.
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: Right, And I'm with you. I'm just saying, if you're
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: going to run him deep, let's let's let's don't throw
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: it to the to the trainers. I would throw it
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: where you can go make it play. But I'm not
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: opposed to the vertical throws because he's got that kind
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: of speed. You've got to be able to push the
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: ball down the field. Just you can't run him that
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: close to the sideline because if the win and the
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: and it was open, the roof was open, if the
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: wind is swirling, he might fall down and he might
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: actually get pushed out there. It's not going to take
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: much for a corner to shove him out of bounds.
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: So that I agree with you. I'm agreeing with you,
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: but I'm not saying he can do the the Cole
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: Beasley type stuff to that level. But we're seeing them
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: do some stuff. I mean, he took a direct snap
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: the other day was basically the quarterback of a play.
• 20:16
  Speaker 9: I'm for it.
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: Do it again, but this time give it to the guy,
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: you know, give it to CD coming around the corner
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: or something. You know, just just keep making plays. I
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: don't know about that, all right, Alright, have a good
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: one too, all right. Turpin is a tough one because
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: I mean, like, you can't just give him everything. I mean,
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: he's he's he's gotta, he's gotta, you know, he's got
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: to figure it out too. He's got to process some things.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: He he he'll have a false start for you, you know.
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: I mean like, but he's a good he's a good player,
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: and he's a dynamic athlete. They're still just figuring out
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: what to do. It's gonna be interesting to see what
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: happens in in a free agency. Next year, he will
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: be a restricted free agent. I it's it seems like
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: for me, you know, you have three options. You can
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: just you could just give him a regular tender, which
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: and if somebody signs him, you can match the deal,
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: but but you won't get any compensation. And I think
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: if for a guy that's one of the fastest in
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: the NFL. I think somebody would definitely take that. Then
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: you can also do a second round tender, which it's
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: that's about five million a year, six million something like that,
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: and you know, if you lose them, then you get
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: a second round pick. And then of course you can
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: do a first round tender, which I don't think they
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: would do that because not that anyone would take them.
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: It's just that it may be a little bit more
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: than they want to pay. But or they could just
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: give him a deal altogether. You know, I probably would
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: do that right now, just say, just forget free agency,
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: will just give you three year deal right now, three year,
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: fourteen fifteen million, something like that. I probably would lock
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: him up. I just think he's too dynamic of a weapon,
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: and he'll he'll continue to figure it out and continue
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: to work on it. All right, Let's go to Tamra
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: in Des Moines, Iowa.
• 22:15
  Speaker 6: He Nick, how's it going good?
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: How are you doing?
• 22:18
  Speaker 13: Oh, we're doing.
• 22:19
  Speaker 6: Haven't called in for a while, been busy. And then
• 22:23
  Speaker 6: just I've also have been like cautiously optimistic about the teams.
• 22:27
  Speaker 6: I kind of didn't want to jinx anything by talking
• 22:29
  Speaker 6: about it too much.
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel that. Yeah, but of course with me,
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: you know, I do a show every day, you know,
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: it kind of has to. But I understand. I definitely
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: get it. I get that thing. But and it was
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: almost there. I mean, it was there, And I can't
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: imagine what this show would have been like this week
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: if they would have won that game. They would have
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: won that game, it would man, that would have been fun.
• 22:52
  Speaker 7: But it light out.
• 22:54
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's been good.
• 22:57
  Speaker 12: Yeah.
• 22:57
  Speaker 6: Well, and somebody said last week about not not drinking
• 23:01
  Speaker 6: the kool aid but really wanting to, and I was
• 23:03
  Speaker 6: right about there, but I didn't drink any no matter
• 23:07
  Speaker 6: what flavor, no letter, how much ice they put in it.
• 23:09
  Speaker 6: I wasn't quite there yet. And now I'm like, not surprised,
• 23:14
  Speaker 6: but bitter kool aid. But yeah, yeah, I And then
• 23:22
  Speaker 6: Rob called in and said something as somebody was saying
• 23:25
  Speaker 6: something about signing McCarthy, we should go ahead and just
• 23:28
  Speaker 6: sign and give him an extended contract. And then Rob was,
• 23:33
  Speaker 6: you know, smart, Rob was like, no, not yet, we wait,
• 23:36
  Speaker 6: you know, and he's sub mentioned something about him having
• 23:41
  Speaker 6: five years to make things happen, and you just can't
• 23:45
  Speaker 6: seem to get there. And you know, I always, for
• 23:48
  Speaker 6: whatever reason I rob always makes sense to me. But
• 23:51
  Speaker 6: here's the thing. I my thing is not so much
• 23:53
  Speaker 6: that it's more like I just feel like it's his,
• 23:57
  Speaker 6: it's his play calling in this decision making. And I
• 24:01
  Speaker 6: just I know that he's got a Super Bowl. I
• 24:03
  Speaker 6: know that, but not for the Cowboys. And it's just frustrating.
• 24:08
  Speaker 6: And so that's why I wouldn't want to see him
• 24:12
  Speaker 6: get fined. And it won't surprise me if he doesn't
• 24:15
  Speaker 6: get fund next year either. I don't know.
• 24:17
  Speaker 12: I don't know.
• 24:17
  Speaker 6: I'm an expert on any of these things. But so
• 24:20
  Speaker 6: that's just where where I'm at with Dad. And of
• 24:22
  Speaker 6: course I'm always going to be Cowboys. So now that
• 24:25
  Speaker 6: was my that was my my not so fun thing.
• 24:28
  Speaker 6: But now I have some kind of fun. So I
• 24:31
  Speaker 6: have a lot of family in Oklahoma and Texas, and
• 24:36
  Speaker 6: my Oklahoma family, my one of my she'd be my
• 24:39
  Speaker 6: second cousin, my cousin, my cousin's daughter. She posted one
• 24:46
  Speaker 6: of her children posted a letter to Santa. And you know,
• 24:49
  Speaker 6: he's at that age where they don't really understand what
• 24:52
  Speaker 6: Santa can bring in, what Santa really can't bring, you know,
• 24:55
  Speaker 6: And so he writes his letter to Santa, and the
• 24:58
  Speaker 6: first five things are a all Cowboys related. He wants
• 25:02
  Speaker 6: T shirt, shorts, hoodie, socks, and shoes. Never didn't say jersey,
• 25:08
  Speaker 6: but he said all those other things. And I didn't
• 25:11
  Speaker 6: even know he was a Cowboys fan. And they were like, well,
• 25:13
  Speaker 6: it's kind of a surprise to us too. We're not
• 25:15
  Speaker 6: sure where he picked that up because you're college to
• 25:18
  Speaker 6: really follow UFL. So they're like, we're not really sure
• 25:20
  Speaker 6: where we got that. Maybe a friend's house or something.
• 25:22
  Speaker 6: But anyway, so he always listen next with ten thousand
• 25:27
  Speaker 6: dollars and ten thousand bags of chips, which he's made
• 25:33
  Speaker 6: me laugh.
• 25:34
  Speaker 13: So we.
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: Sounds like my son, I mean, that's something he would
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: he would ask for all.
• 25:42
  Speaker 6: Yeah, we talked to my husband and we sent a
• 25:44
  Speaker 6: box of jerseys for he and his brother and his
• 25:47
  Speaker 6: two sisters for Christmas. From that's more cowboys, more Cowboys
• 25:52
  Speaker 6: fans to get frustrated later, that's.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: Okay, that's okay at least, thanks thanks for the call.
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: And I always good to have more fans there in Iowa.
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: And you know, that's good that he's asking for T
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: shirts and things like that. Things you can you can get,
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: you know, jerseys and stuff like that. It's glad you
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: know you're not asking for wins against you know, the
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: Eagles or the Bengals or something like that. It's gonna
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: be hard for Santa to produce that. I just I
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: would just ask for healthy players. But even that that stuff.
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: Let me go to break here on Cowboys storyline. I'll
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: be right back to answer some more calls.

• 28:23
  Speaker 2: Dylan in Northport, Florida. Dylan, what's up, man, You've been
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: holding a little bit. How you doing?
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: Hey, Nick?
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: I'm all right, man, I'm just a little down the
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: dumps about this Overshown thing.
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: I was kind of resigned to losing and missing the
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: playoffs several weeks ago. You now, my kind of joy
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: for the season, whatever was left of it, was just
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: in watching individual guys grow and thrive. And you know,
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: Overshown was maybe not this season, but he's on track
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: to be an all Pro in the future seasons. And
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: now with this injury might not played till twenty twenty six.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: That's going to hamper his development further. Can't get his
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: body chiseled the way he wants to and set up
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: right because he's got to focus on recovery. And so,
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: you know, this is a big detour in his career,
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: and it's just got me absolutely gutted. I haven't felt
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: really much and probably about a month as far as
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: joy or anger or anything about the team is just
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: kind of been well. That figures, you know, whatever kind
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: of feeling. And this just has me absolutely absolutely tore
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: up on the inside.
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: I hear you. I mean I because a lot of
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: people have kind of realized this year is just not
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: gonna it's not working out. It's not gonna be for
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: this year. But you're everyone, everyone thing that you get
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: excited about is for next year, and so this this
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: feels like this injury was like dipping into the savings account,
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Like this is what I
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: this is for next year. You know what I mean. Now,
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: now you're messing up next year. I'm trying to get
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: excited for next season and we're already doing things that
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: you know that will mess up next year. But I'm
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: not gonna I'm not gonna say that he won't be
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: back at some point next season and his body will
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: be right. I mean, his body was right this year.
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: You know, he was, he was ready to go, and
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: he figured it out. I understand it's a tougher injury
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: in a different timetable, but I'm just not counting that
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: guy out for anything.
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: He's just he's just the good news is there's no
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: nerve injury, right, so there's no Jalen Smith type issues.
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: Going on there, you should still be able to move laterally,
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: and then once he gets right, it's just a question
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: of yeah, when when that'll be. I didn't want to
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: talk about McCarthy real quick, you know, just being respectful.
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to dog the guy or anything, but
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: I'm just not sure he puts the team in the
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: best position to win on a consistent basis. You know,
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: you don't want your coach to to cost you games
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: or to not really optimize what you've got heading into
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: games going on in the field. And you know, case
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: in point, we waited all year. We all wanted Dawdle
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: to get more touches. I know they were behind in
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: a lot of games, but they they waffle between Zeke
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: and Cook and Dowdell and all this stuff, and it's
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: like we all knew that Dawdell was the main guy.
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: So I mean, what took so long to get to
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: that conclusion? And then you know, within the game, you've
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: got that last drive or second to last year, whatever
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: it was, where you know he cranks out thirteen yards
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: fourteen yards on first down, you throw it three times
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: with the backup quarterback. I just don't know if he's
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: done a great job. I put him his team at
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: least this season, in the best position when I know
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: there's in a lot of injuries and stuff. So that's
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: not all on him. But you know, you just see
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: these things and it makes you wonder a little bit.
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: Yep, makes you wonder a lot, you know. Now. I
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: earlier in the show, Gary from New Mexico called and
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: kind of said the same thing, and I stopped him
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: and I said, you know, they Rico has been starting
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: all year long, and he's been getting a lot more opportunities.
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: It's not like he was Barry Sanders every time. He's
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: getting it. Like some of it's on him as well.
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: And this the running game has gotten better and they
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: figured out how to do it better. So I'll give
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: a little bit of a pass there than to say
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: he's been backing up the whole time. But I don't
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: have an excuse for the fourteen yard run on first
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: down and then three straight passes. I don't have. I
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: don't have because when they did drive the ball, they
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: were driving it mixed running passing, running passing passing, and
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: so to just to pass past pass after a thirteen
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: yard run, it's I don't know. I didn't like it,
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: you know, I I think there's a lot of well
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: they think we're going to do this, so Watson exactly,
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: and you know that's why.
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: Also you see a screen passed to Zeke as well,
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: like what are we doing here? You know that makes.
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: Sense that one doesn't that that that experiment it needs
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: to change. I'm just going to say that. And it's
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: been it was a good try. It just it's it's
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: not it's not there.
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: The should have been gone as an example after he
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: missed meetings. I know he's done great for the franchise
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: over the years and all that, but I mean, you can't.
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: You can't do that. I mean several meetings, you're late,
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: you're missing. You know, you got to make an example
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: of somebody like that at some point. And I don't
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: know if that's a GM pach whatever, but it's just
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: that's an excusable to me as well. But that's all
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: I got, man, So I have a good one.
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: Appreciate it. Let's go to uh uh Zach in Atlanta.
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: I'm going to quickly move around here, Zach in Atlanta.
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: How you doing Nick?
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: Hey man? Listen?
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: Uh oh?
• 33:09
  Speaker 13: Everybody questioned the front office the decisions. What are we
• 33:13
  Speaker 13: doing with trading away our fourth round picks? Why have
• 33:16
  Speaker 13: they done the things that they've done. But you know what,
• 33:18
  Speaker 13: I had a revelation and I saw the vision halfway
• 33:21
  Speaker 13: through this season. This season, they saw a three and
• 33:24
  Speaker 13: seventh Carolina Panthers team ahead on the schedule, and they said,
• 33:27
  Speaker 13: you know what, we need all the deeps, we need
• 33:29
  Speaker 13: all the secrets, get us Jonathan Mingo. We'll sell the
• 33:31
  Speaker 13: fourth round pick. Hell, we'll sell the farm to secure
• 33:35
  Speaker 13: a win and all the behind the scenes cream plays
• 33:39
  Speaker 13: and whatever that the offense.
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: Is going to do.
• 33:41
  Speaker 13: Mingo's going to be our mole. He's going to get
• 33:44
  Speaker 13: us a win this weekend, I think.
• 33:46
  Speaker 4: So.
• 33:46
  Speaker 8: He's going to be in all the meetings.
• 33:48
  Speaker 13: He's going to have the PowerPoint presentations, and he's got
• 33:51
  Speaker 13: to do his thing on the field and off the
• 33:55
  Speaker 13: field in preparation. The front office knew what they were doing.
• 33:58
  Speaker 13: I'm a believer.
• 33:58
  Speaker 12: I'm sold.
• 33:59
  Speaker 13: I'm putting down a torch and the pitchfork. My tomatoes
• 34:02
  Speaker 13: are no longer in my hand. I'm going full steam ahead.
• 34:06
  Speaker 13: And actually, no, I just blacked out what just happened there?
• 34:09
  Speaker 5: Nick?
• 34:09
  Speaker 13: I don't even know what just happened.
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: I thought it was a promo for like ww E
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: raw or something like that, like a night. So it
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: sounds like it sounds like, you know, you had it
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: all kind of figured out. Hey, I was going with it,
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean at this at this point
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: in the year. You know, if you're going to have
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: a season where you sign a guy earlier in the
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: afternoon and then he makes like like one of the
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: worst plays that could lose a game and no m
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: even pronounce his name and all that, you know, and
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: he ruins a blocked punt.
• 34:38
  Speaker 13: I mean, you know what if it with our special
• 34:41
  Speaker 13: teams guys over the years making plays one way or another,
• 34:44
  Speaker 13: we signed or traded for Noah Igma Nominee. I had
• 34:49
  Speaker 13: the first touchdown of the season last year off a
• 34:53
  Speaker 13: block field goal, and then, uh, you know, great play,
• 34:56
  Speaker 13: great freak play for a special Teams player, and then
• 34:59
  Speaker 13: this year you got to the aforementioned gaff on the punt.
• 35:03
  Speaker 13: So anyways, it's.
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: Just looking great plays that aren't you know? I said
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: it yesterday. I mean, one day Thomas takes a kickoff
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: return for a touchdown and you know, I mean, Ceedee
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: Lamb did that in twenty twenty against the forty nine ers,
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: and it was okay, but in this case, and it's
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: not okay because when you're up by one, up by
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: one is not is not a safe you know, you
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: don't need to be scoring.
• 35:27
  Speaker 13: Funny, man, you you made a quip a few years
• 35:29
  Speaker 13: ago on the break where you asked hellman because Fossil
• 35:34
  Speaker 13: was making some calls and seemed like he had, you know,
• 35:38
  Speaker 13: more of McCarthy's ear than he should have during the game,
• 35:40
  Speaker 13: and you were like, hellman, what are the three phases
• 35:43
  Speaker 13: of the team? And he said, offense, defense, special teams
• 35:47
  Speaker 13: And you're like, yeah, that's the order of priority.
• 35:50
  Speaker 12: Special teams.
• 35:52
  Speaker 13: Does have a big impact. But it should. Man, if
• 35:54
  Speaker 13: you're losing special teams, it's that much more frustrating.
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: I set them up. I set them up for that. Yeah,
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: I did that with I did that with my son too,
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: when he wanted to wear zero in basketball and I
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: and I said count to three for me and he
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: said one, two, three. I was like, right, you didn't start.
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: It's not a number. You don't get it. I'm putting
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: my foot down. So he wears four.
• 36:16
  Speaker 13: Yeah, back, but we'll see, you know, continue to have
• 36:19
  Speaker 13: fun in the season. Last thought, I have Panthers on
• 36:23
  Speaker 13: the schedule this week. Can you tell me about Vinny
• 36:26
  Speaker 13: Testa Verdi and or Andy Dalton journeyman quarterbacks. Testaverdy was
• 36:31
  Speaker 13: like probably the first quarterback I remember of my fandom.
• 36:34
  Speaker 13: I was seven or eight, wow, walking into purgatory Quincy
• 36:39
  Speaker 13: Carter all those days. So any stories on them, yes.
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: All right, appreciate it. Yeah, thanks for the call, Zac,
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: And you know, if you can't have fun with this,
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: what can you do? The thing about Testa Verdi one
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: thing I remember, and it's weird now because the quarterback
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: just you know, he talks on Thursday, dek you know,
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: he talks on Thursday, and he talks after the game.
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: Ben he tested very talked every day every day that
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: the locker room was open. He didn't just talk every day.
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: He stood at his locker and answered questions like it
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: was Monday and then then Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, and
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: he stood there and answered questions the entire time, and
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: and he and he was he was really nice and
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: Cordiale answered the same thing probably over and over and over,
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: and people would come in and talk, and he had
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: all kinds of stories, and I mean, I thought that
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: was amazing.
• 37:29
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: He he was just a pros pro, he really was.
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: And and Parcels knew what he had with him, and
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: you know, he knew that that he you know, he
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: he could still throw it, and he did. He had
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: a pretty nice season that the stats were there. Asked
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: for Andy Dalton, yeah and the only yeah, yeah, I
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: don't have a lot of good ones. I remember actually
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: standing behind him when he got found out that he
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: had COVID twenty twenty, and it was he was starting
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: quarterback and then they were like, well, you have to
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: go to your car, and he was. He threw his
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: hat down, he was mad. I was like, well, what
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: happened to him? And then like an hour later, it's
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: like Cowboys, Andy Dalton has COVID. He's not gonna play
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: this game. And what a weird you know, And I'm
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: about to get tested too, because we're about to go somewhere.
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: I forget where we were going, some trip. But that
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: was just, you know, just such a weird season. And
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: he was kind of similar to Vinnie in that way
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: about being a pro and just understanding his role and
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: and all that. And then when he got in the game,
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: you know he could could could do some things. And
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: of course he's there in Carolina now still so you know,
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: and doing those same things, understanding what role that he's got.
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Rob in Vegas.
• 38:46
  Speaker 12: Hey, Rob, how's everything?
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: Everything? Well, everything is not is not great, everything is
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: not great. But overall, starting with health, everything seemed pretty good.
• 39:01
  Speaker 12: There you go, oh wait, wait wait.
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: My health, not the player's health. Player's health. No, not
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: not good.
• 39:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 39:08
  Speaker 12: Uh I call him because Dylan Uh called And I
• 39:12
  Speaker 12: totally agree with Dylan.
• 39:14
  Speaker 8: Yeah, you know it is.
• 39:15
  Speaker 12: I look at the head coaches and there's been a
• 39:19
  Speaker 12: fascination with the hot shot play caller. You know, everybody's
• 39:24
  Speaker 12: looking for. And the only guy that I could think
• 39:27
  Speaker 12: of that's having success at it right now is Sean McVeigh.
• 39:33
  Speaker 12: But they haven't really done anything since they won the
• 39:36
  Speaker 12: Super Bowls. And I look at you know, even Andy Reid,
• 39:41
  Speaker 12: Matt Maggie's the oh see it's Andy Reid's offense. But
• 39:47
  Speaker 12: you know, I look at walk to me, a walk
• 39:51
  Speaker 12: around coach is what you need? Is it's there's just
• 39:55
  Speaker 12: too much stuff going on.
• 39:57
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I agree, and the pro all of them I
• 40:00
  Speaker 8: have with.
• 40:01
  Speaker 12: Mike McCarthy is. It's like he's so engrossed with that
• 40:06
  Speaker 12: stupid play chart in front of him that he's oblivious
• 40:12
  Speaker 12: to what is actually going on in the game. And
• 40:15
  Speaker 12: we've seen it this year, last year, the year before,
• 40:18
  Speaker 12: And what I mean is his situational football is awful.
• 40:23
  Speaker 12: The flow of the game. We'll just take the last game.
• 40:28
  Speaker 12: Everybody saw. The best thing they were doing was running.
• 40:33
  Speaker 12: Everybody saw how the defense. You know what, going into
• 40:36
  Speaker 12: the game, we thought this was going to be if
• 40:37
  Speaker 12: they give up thirty five. No, it was twenty points,
• 40:40
  Speaker 12: so you could rely on your defense. They were grinding
• 40:44
  Speaker 12: it out, they were playing hard. You had them, and
• 40:47
  Speaker 12: that's five minutes with five minutes left, that was the
• 40:51
  Speaker 12: drive that you were going to run the time out
• 40:54
  Speaker 12: if they're going to get the ball back there, getting
• 40:56
  Speaker 12: it back down the touchdown. This is odd drop and
• 41:02
  Speaker 12: he worked the drive totally totally wrong. We've seen this
• 41:06
  Speaker 12: in so many games. We've seen this where we talked
• 41:08
  Speaker 12: about it, where even the Giants game where you got
• 41:11
  Speaker 12: the lead and then all of a sudden you're like, yeah,
• 41:16
  Speaker 12: why we're letting this team have a chance of the
• 41:19
  Speaker 12: Washington game.
• 41:20
  Speaker 7: Same thing.
• 41:21
  Speaker 12: It's so That's my biggest gripe with him is I
• 41:25
  Speaker 12: just don't think he has control of the team. You know, Belichick,
• 41:33
  Speaker 12: Bill Parcells, if they heard that call come across the headset,
• 41:39
  Speaker 12: that automatic or whatever they were talking about, he would
• 41:43
  Speaker 12: have clicked that button and said, hell, no return only final,
• 41:49
  Speaker 12: or we're going to run the ball. I remember Parcels,
• 41:52
  Speaker 12: you know you would hear the stories. He'd click on
• 41:54
  Speaker 12: and say, uh uh, we're running the ball. I remember
• 41:57
  Speaker 12: him taking the play calling duties away from Sean pay
• 42:01
  Speaker 12: So that's the kind of coach we need more than ever,
• 42:05
  Speaker 12: especially with the type of management you have. It's a
• 42:10
  Speaker 12: different animal. I just watched Jerry Jones praise Bill Belichick
• 42:17
  Speaker 12: like he was God, and I'm staring at it saying, then,
• 42:22
  Speaker 12: go get God. What are you doing? You just told
• 42:25
  Speaker 12: us he's still fired, He's still got six rings, he
• 42:30
  Speaker 12: could run a billion dollar corporation.
• 42:35
  Speaker 7: Go get him.
• 42:36
  Speaker 12: He's waiting. He's sitting right there saying, what are we doing?
• 42:40
  Speaker 12: Let's come. And I just say to myself, if you then,
• 42:43
  Speaker 12: why won't you do it? And the only way, the
• 42:45
  Speaker 12: only thing I could think of is you don't want
• 42:47
  Speaker 12: to be uncomfortable because you would have to change your
• 42:50
  Speaker 12: business model.
• 42:52
  Speaker 7: Your business model.
• 42:53
  Speaker 12: When you hire that guy is a little different that
• 42:58
  Speaker 12: if you hire Mike McCarthy. And and that's the only
• 43:02
  Speaker 12: thing about it. I don't think he wants to be uncomfortable.
• 43:05
  Speaker 12: And if they lose to Carolina, you you want to
• 43:10
  Speaker 12: see change quick. Embarrass a billionaire because you can't challenge
• 43:16
  Speaker 12: and with money all fame, but embarrass them and lose
• 43:21
  Speaker 12: to a Carolina team that it's the first time I
• 43:23
  Speaker 12: think they're favorite in two years and then watch what happened.
• 43:28
  Speaker 13: So that's my only thing.
• 43:30
  Speaker 12: Go get a big time coach for a big time program,
• 43:35
  Speaker 12: and Mike McCarthy is not it?
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: All right, Rob, thank you, I appreciate it. I agree
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: with a lot of the play calling stuff there and
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: the flow of the game and that that five minute drive.
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: I was with you on that part as well. I
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: just I think it's time that time of the game
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: you want to bleed out the clock one way or
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: another game's tied, go down there and try to get
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: a field goal or touchdown. But whatever you do, you know,
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: make them do some stuff, make them call timeouts, make
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: them have to start worrying about time and what happens
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: when they get the ball back and all that, and
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: you do that by running the ball, and it's fine,
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: you can do it because you are running the ball
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: and you're running it with success. So yeah, I would
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: have I thought that was mismanaged right there. There's always
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: that point point in the middle of the fourth quarter
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: that seems like it's been an issue there, and I think,
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: you know, I think McCarthy's one of those guys that says,
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: it's like the people that say, I'm you know, I
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: want to do you know, I want to be on
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: a diet. I want to be on a diet, I
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: want to do this, I want to eat healthy and
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: all this, and then they get double cheeseburgers, you know,
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: because it's like you say you want to do this,
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: but really you don't. You say you want to run
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: it and you want to be that running team, but
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: you really don't. You don't want to call plays that way.
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: That's not the way you want to call plays. And
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: then in the postgame press conference he says, I wish
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: I would have gotten the ball to Rico more. That's you.
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: You can do that. You can do that, you know,
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: and so that's what's kind of frustrating. I get it now,
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: getting you know, after that, we'll wait with that. But
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: I will say this about about Jerry not being comfortable
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: and all that. You know, Belichick's not going to be
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: really any different than what they had with Parcels. Okay,
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: and so in Belichick, if he was'll be the coach
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: of whoever he's going to be the coach at, He'll say,
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: this is what I want to do, this is the
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: way it's going to be and all that. And if
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: it's you know, whoever it is, if it was the Cowboys,
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: they'd be like, Okay, yeah, we can do that. We
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: can do that, we can do that. Oh no, we're
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: not doing that. Sorry, nope, not doing that. Good, try
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: not doing that. So and the same thing happened with Parcels.
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: You should have seen some of the press conferences that
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: Parcels had to deal with it. I got to go
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: to break one more time here on Cowboys storyline and
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: be right back to get two more calls. So it's
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: got to be quick.

  Speaker 10: To Cowboys story Hine.
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: All right back here on Cowboys Storyline. We got two
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: more calls to get here and just a few minutes,
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: so we're gonna have to roll through this Josh in Chicago,
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: keeping the streak alive. What's up?
• 47:02
  Speaker 8: Yes, sir, Yeah, tomorrow I go back to work, so
• 47:05
  Speaker 8: I'm not going to be there, you know, be on
• 47:06
  Speaker 8: the callis there's.
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: A good streak. Get you did you did a nice job.
• 47:11
  Speaker 8: Yeah, we lasted for a while. I might be there
• 47:13
  Speaker 8: on Sunday though, hopefully get uh my copy of If
• 47:16
  Speaker 8: These Walls Could Talk signed, especially some of those Bill
• 47:18
  Speaker 8: Parcell's stories. Oh yeah, did some good ones in there
• 47:21
  Speaker 8: for anyone who hasn't read the book than the other
• 47:24
  Speaker 8: thing I wanted to say, the only point I wanted
• 47:26
  Speaker 8: to make. You know, I'm bummed about Overshown, but I'm
• 47:28
  Speaker 8: hoping uh Dimon and Clark can get back to form
• 47:31
  Speaker 8: and get back into some reps.
• 47:33
  Speaker 13: Uh.
• 47:33
  Speaker 8: And if I could resign anyone right now, I would
• 47:36
  Speaker 8: get Eric Kendricks resigned because I think he's really smart.
• 47:39
  Speaker 8: I think he's helped some of these younger guys grow,
• 47:40
  Speaker 8: like leof out on Overshown. Yeah, and I think Clark's
• 47:43
  Speaker 8: got an opportunity to learn from one of the really
• 47:45
  Speaker 8: good high IQ bets and all h take call off
• 47:48
  Speaker 8: the year so that way somebody else.
• 47:50
  Speaker 2: Can get in than you appreciate that. Uh yeah, I'd
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: like to see Damon Clark as well. I want to
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: see you know. I mean, he's been inactive last couple
• 47:59
  Speaker 2: of games, but this is big moment for him, so
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: you know, we'll see what happens if he can play
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: well in these last four games and probably help his cause,
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: whether it be this team or another team. The Kendricks thing,
• 48:10
  Speaker 2: I don't I don't hate it. The only thing about
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: signing players right now is just you don't know what
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: the defense is going to be. You don't know who's
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: coming back and what the coaches situation is. So that
• 48:22
  Speaker 2: that's what makes it somewhat challenging to just talk about
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: bringing guys back. Kendricks could probably play in just about
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: any system, though, So I get your point there. Let's
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: go to Eric in North Carolina.
• 48:35
  Speaker 15: Hey, Nick, how's it going.
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: How are you?
• 48:38
  Speaker 15: I'm doing well. I just want to throw out a
• 48:41
  Speaker 15: new offensive line combination for for next season. Really, but
• 48:48
  Speaker 15: I do. I do like Hoffman at center, and because
• 48:53
  Speaker 15: he's he's really good at the combo blocks, and he's
• 48:57
  Speaker 15: pretty mobile, and and I'm thinking I do like bb
• 49:01
  Speaker 15: as a player. He has a lot of tenacity, I
• 49:04
  Speaker 15: think you would do better at guard. So, uh So,
• 49:08
  Speaker 15: what I'm thinking is with where our draft position will
• 49:12
  Speaker 15: probably be, I'll say I must say upper teams. I
• 49:17
  Speaker 15: would draft a true offensive left tackle, keep Tyler Smith
• 49:22
  Speaker 15: at left guard, Hoffman at center, BB at the right guard,
• 49:29
  Speaker 15: and then Steal at right tackle, and Guidon is my
• 49:33
  Speaker 15: is my swing tackle. And I just wanted to wanted
• 49:38
  Speaker 15: to get your take on that and hope you have
• 49:40
  Speaker 15: a great day.
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: Thank you. Uh you know, they're they're going to give
• 49:46
  Speaker 2: Guyton every chance to be a starter. I mean, his
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: first round pick that they knew would need some work.
• 49:52
  Speaker 2: So I just don't see that might be what it
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: ends up being. But they're going to try to find
• 49:59
  Speaker 2: the right spot guiding and maybe it's not left tackle,
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: maybe it's right tackle. But you know he's going to
• 50:05
  Speaker 2: be in the mix here. And and he's he's too
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: you know, he's got too much upside. That's why they
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: drafted him. He's a big, tall guy, He's got some
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: strength to him. He's just got to learn how to
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: be a football player in the NFL. He's just and
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: I think he will. I think he will play more
• 50:22
  Speaker 2: this this season. And I think the arrow will will
• 50:25
  Speaker 2: be pointed up for him. I I really do. I
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: think that the last few games, I think he's gonna
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: show just enough to be like, all right, he'll be fine.
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: Let's let's let's work with him. So one way or another,
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: I think he needs to be factored in the mix.
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying not draft someone. If it's a guard,
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: I'd be fine with it. Be I mean, I'd be
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: fine with whatever whatever comes their way, whether it be
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: tackle cool, because I think that fixes a lot of problems.
• 50:49
  Speaker 2: But I just I just think it's way too early
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: to give up on Guiden. And I know the Cowboys
• 50:54
  Speaker 2: don't do that with with first round picks, and they'll
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: you know, they didn't do that with Mazzie Smith. Obviously,
• 50:59
  Speaker 2: they kept it rolling up going with him. They'll do
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: that with Guyton. They'll get on the right course with him.
• 51:04
  Speaker 2: He needs to have a good offseason in the weight room,
• 51:06
  Speaker 2: you know, really get his body right. Uh. You're never
• 51:08
  Speaker 2: gonna be like Tyron Smith. But you know he's got
• 51:11
  Speaker 2: a ways to go, and so I think I think
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: this will be a big off season for him. All Right,
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: there's a great show. You guys did really good ten
• 51:18
  Speaker 2: calls we'd love it. We will be back tomorrow. We'll
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: talk about more about this Cowboys Panthers game and and
• 51:26
  Speaker 2: what some of the guys we want to see moving
• 51:28
  Speaker 2: forward here. So for Chris be I'm Nick Eatman, see
• 51:31
