  Speaker 1: The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: Cowboys.
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: This is Cowboys Storyline with Nick Eatman.
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: What's up and welcome to Cowboys Storyline. I am Nick Eatman.
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: It's time to talk Cowboys football here for another hour,
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: and we got some news going on here. The Cowboys
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: are making some moves at least one trade, maybe some
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: more on this election day for the Cowboys, as the
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: for the world, actually for the United States, of course,
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: but the Cowboys are making some moves as well. See
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: if they can add to this football team, see what
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: kind of changes they can make as well. Looks like
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: the Cowboys are going to acquire wide receiver Jonathan Mingo
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: from the carol on A Panthers. That move is finalizing
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: as we speak here. It looks like Kevi's going to
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: trade a fourth round pick next year twenty twenty five
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: for Mingo and a seventh round pick in twenty twenty five.
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: Souh swapping a fourth and a seventh getting Mingo was
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: a second round pick last year for the Panthers. So
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: that's that's what we've talked about all along. You're gonna
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: make a move like this. See if it's a guy
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: that's more than just this year, and that's what this
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: one is. Mingo four year contracts, got two years remaining
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: on the deal after this season, so.
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: We'll see.
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: You know, he's a he's a young player they liked
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: coming out of Ole Miss. He hasn't developed obviously like
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: they wanted to. Then again, who could in Carolina with
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: that situation with their quarterback. So you know, I think
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: that they're looking at it from that standpoint like this
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: is some good talent. Let's put him around, you know,
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: another great receiver and CD and Dak and all that,
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: and have a couple of years to go. So you know,
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: right now, I understand the movie. If this isn't one
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: of those moves that you're like, this makes us completely better,
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: all cowboys are going, you know, going for it. But
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: I think it's a you know, it could be considered
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: a smart move when you consider that they're going to
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: need wide receiver help next year and they're getting a
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: guy that they like, you know, for a fourth round pick,
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: a guy that they they think has second round talent
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: at least or maybe even more than that. All right,
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: eight eight eight eight five five two two nine seven
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: is the number to call. We've got a lot of
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: news today, not just that Jerry Jones did say on
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: his radio show Tuesday morning that he expects Dak Prescott
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: to go to ir H.
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: It's a four week ir at least.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: So uh, that's that that just goes to show what
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: where the nature of that injury is when Dak's hamstring
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: and and you knew it would be if if they're
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: taking him out of the game that quickly, it's going
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: to be a situation that that it's going to be
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: more than a week or two. And in this case,
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: it looks like it's going to be four. From a
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: standpoint of Micah Parsons though, and and maybe they're on
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: Lamb Zeke Elliot, Ceedee Lamb. Those guys are expected to
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: play this week. We'll see what happens with practice with
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: Bland and Micah, but still a good sign that those
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: guys are have a shot to get back on the field.
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: All right, let's start with our phone call today. We're
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: going all the way to England. Mike in Birmingham, England.
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: What's up, Mike, Good afternoon, Nick, good morning, where you are.
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: Nice to speak to you.
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: Again, Thank you, Thank you. How are you?
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: I'm all right, thank you. We're on opposite sides tonight.
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: It's Swansea City against Watford, so may the best team win.
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: Jonathan Jonathan Mingo. That's an interesting one.
• 3:38
  Speaker 6: I'm going to.
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: Cut Jerry a little bit of slack here because he's
• 3:41
  Speaker 5: getting an absolute pasting on Twitter. You know, this is
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: not what we need. Why are we trading a fourth
• 3:47
  Speaker 5: and so on. I'm not gonna tell you that Jonathan
• 3:51
  Speaker 5: Mingo is a wonderful player, to be honest, I hadn't
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: heard of him until about twenty minutes ago. But he's
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: been playing for a terrible team. He's very, very very cheap,
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: and we know that if Cooks isn't coming back, we're
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: going to need a receiver. We'd have probably been dressing
• 4:07
  Speaker 5: one anyway. So I'm just going to wait and see
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: and not rush to judgment. But yeah, just wondering on
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: what your take is on it. You see this as
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: a as a positive move? Have you seen Mingo at all?
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: And what have we got ourselves?
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah? I don't. Do you have another call or do
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: you have another question?
• 4:31
  Speaker 6: No?
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: No, thank just on that one.
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: Well, thank you, thanks for the call. We'll clear up
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: the lines here and keep moving. But thanks for the call,
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: Mike from Birmingham, England. My thought on Mingo is, you know,
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: I look at it from a standpoint of fourth round pick.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: Next year, Like you said, they're going to need a
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: wide receiver. Cooks is probably not coming back. Tolbert. Jury
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: still out on what he is. Is he a number
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: two pick, number two receiver or not. You know, they
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: they liked Mingo obviously from from the Scotting reports from
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: last year, and you know, I just think they see
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: it as we're gonna get a we're gonna get a receiver.
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: We'll use a fourth round pick to get a guy
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: that's that's gonna be two years into it and knows
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: the system because he'll know it by the time of
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: next year rolls around. Now he'll have two more years
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: left on his deal. I like that type of trade
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: better than I like the trade lance trade, you know,
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: with just developing a guy really for and he had.
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: Two years left on his deal.
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: But it's not like quarterback is obviously not like receiver
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: where you can't play multiple players and stuff like that.
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: So I like this.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: I like this move if if if it's a guy
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: that they feel like can come in and fit, and
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: they do that. They obviously feel that way. You know,
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: to have two years remaining on the deal is great
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: for a fourth round pick, and and you're adding a seventh.
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: I mean, I know that those picks aren't the same,
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: but you're not losing the number of players. Again, you're
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: swapping a fourth and a seventh. That is a very
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: significant trade. But you're getting a guy that you feel
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: like has second round talent. So from that standpoint, I
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: like it. Again, this is not a move of trying
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: to fix this three and five football team. That's not
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: the way I see it, and that's not the way
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: I don't know if you guys should view it that
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: way or not. I don't know if the Cowboys see
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: it that way. If they're going to do that, then
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: they would trade for players that are that are better
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: players and giving up more draft capital. This is not
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: a renting situation. They're buying this guy and they're buying
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: him for the future. So from that, I like, all right,
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: let's go to champ in Nebraska.
• 6:44
  Speaker 7: Nick.
• 6:44
  Speaker 8: What is going on, man?
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: How are you doing?
• 6:48
  Speaker 8: I'm good, bro? Oh my gosh. You know how difficult
• 6:51
  Speaker 8: it is to call into your show anymore, these guys
• 6:55
  Speaker 8: would get in daily. I'm like, I don't know how
• 6:57
  Speaker 8: they do it, but I'd have been able to get
• 6:59
  Speaker 8: in for a couple of weeks.
• 7:00
  Speaker 6: I've had so much to catch up on about San.
• 7:03
  Speaker 8: Francisco I miss and then last week. But you know what,
• 7:08
  Speaker 8: I'm letting it all go. Hey, I'm kind of happy
• 7:11
  Speaker 8: with this trade. Everything you just said. It's nothing that
• 7:16
  Speaker 8: we are gonna like. We didn't mortgage our whole future
• 7:19
  Speaker 8: for it, so I'm okay with it.
• 7:21
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I do have a question.
• 7:24
  Speaker 8: I'm wondering what you think we see at a Trey
• 7:27
  Speaker 8: Lance moving forward.
• 7:28
  Speaker 9: You know, before he was.
• 7:30
  Speaker 8: A third quarterback, I don't think a lot of people
• 7:32
  Speaker 8: understand that he was not gonna play. You couldn't just
• 7:35
  Speaker 8: put him in for a play or two to see
• 7:37
  Speaker 8: what he would do in that situation. Now that he
• 7:41
  Speaker 8: will be the backup, he can't come in and come
• 7:44
  Speaker 8: back out. What do you think we're gonna see out
• 7:47
  Speaker 8: of him moving forward? If anything? And also, who will
• 7:52
  Speaker 8: our thirty emergency quarterback be until that gets back? With that,
• 7:56
  Speaker 8: I'll hang up. Great show. Always missed you guys. Hoping
• 7:59
  Speaker 8: to get in a little more, but you guys think
• 8:02
  Speaker 8: Karen By blushed.
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: All right, thank you so much. I do.
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: I do think that they will have to add a
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: quarterback at least for the practice squad, just just just
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: to throw. But you know, you don't have to have
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: a third emergency quarterback. You know that the Cowboy's gone
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: several several years sometimes without a whole season without having
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: a third quarterback, even dressed. You remember, the rules were
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: different back then, so you didn't always have to do them.
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: So it could just be Cooper Rush and and Trey
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: Lance as far as in uniform. I don't know if
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: they're going to add a quarterback to the roster just
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: for that for that case. They could, especially now with
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: with that going to IR. But we'll see, well, we'll
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: see how that works.
• 8:48
  Speaker 6: Now.
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: As for Trey Lance, I think I would play him some.
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: I'd figure out some some packages to to get him
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: in the game. You're gonna have to piece this thing together.
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: I don't think it's just Cooper Rush all the way
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: I mean it can be, But if you want to
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: see Trey Lance at all, and you want to also
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: have some a different kind of dimension and a dynamic
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: there that that he can run and do some some
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: things that you haven't been able to do. You know
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: why not. I mean, you've got to trick this thing up.
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: You've got to do things differently than than it's it's
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: been working before. And you know, his his preseason tape
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: wasn't wasn't great at times. Obviously, there that one last
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: game and he had five interceptions in the game, he
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: did have a forty six yard run for a touchdown,
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: which was a really nice play. I mean it took
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: him like twelve steps to get there. I mean, he's
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: such a long glider, but it would have been the
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: longest I mean it's preseason, but if that was regular
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: season game, would have been the longest run in the
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: history of the Cowboys by a quarterback in forty six yards.
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: I mean, we're seeing, you know, Lamar Jackson do these
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: kind of things, and these guys are running that far,
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: but not from the Cowboy standpoint. So that is a
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: dimension that they don't have, and maybe that's something they
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: can do in the game. All right, let's go to
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: Gavin in Oklahoma City.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: Gavin, Hey, Nick, I haven't got to listen since the game,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: but I'm sure you've had your share of wonderful calls
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: these last two days.
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, oh man, it's been up there.
• 10:23
  Speaker 10: I hope you haven't gotten any political cause together. I
• 10:25
  Speaker 10: like politicians as much as I like the egos.
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, now we're good there. I haven't heard anything about
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: about the election yet.
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: Just yet.
• 10:36
  Speaker 10: That's amazing.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Let's keep it like that.
• 10:39
  Speaker 10: So I'm gonna do something weird as a Cowboys fan
• 10:43
  Speaker 10: right now, and I'm gonna call you with some thoughts
• 10:46
  Speaker 10: I have that are positive.
• 10:47
  Speaker 6: All right.
• 10:49
  Speaker 10: I know that we've been in this situation with day before.
• 10:53
  Speaker 10: I know the season was a little bit different, but
• 10:55
  Speaker 10: the team rallied around Cooper Rush when that happens, and
• 11:01
  Speaker 10: they got some wins. So if we can maybe get
• 11:04
  Speaker 10: these defensive reinforcements back and somehow, some way put together
• 11:09
  Speaker 10: just a couple of wins, we are not totally out
• 11:13
  Speaker 10: of the picture in my opinion. And yes I'm not
• 11:16
  Speaker 10: an idiot. I know things look bleak, and I also
• 11:19
  Speaker 10: know that even when we had everybody at full go,
• 11:23
  Speaker 10: things weren't looking good. But you know, I don't think
• 11:26
  Speaker 10: the Cowboys should just go and start selling. I really
• 11:29
  Speaker 10: think they're not.
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: I mean, Gavin that they're not. They're not going to
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: do that.
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: Jerry said it on the radio that they're not doing
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: that and they they're adding players. I mean, like so
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: like I'm just just throwing that out there. I mean,
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: I agree with you. I think they agree that. You know,
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: they're they're gonna, they're gonna go for it. I mean
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: that I don't know about go for it, but they're gonna,
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: they're gonna go forward. They're gonna go forward, continue to
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: go forward on this.
• 11:51
  Speaker 10: Right, and I think that's the right of approach because
• 11:55
  Speaker 10: it's not over till it's over. We've seen weirder things
• 11:58
  Speaker 10: happen in the NFL, you know, But that's really.
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: Thanks Kevin. I appreciate it. And you know, I think
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: you have to have that that attitude or you know,
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: I mean, not everyone will. I mean, I understand that
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: we'll have callers here the rest of this show that
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: probably won't have that that that's that's fine, but but
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: you know, the Cowboys, it's just there's just too much
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: still going so still too much football to be played,
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: and still too too many things. It's it's just easy
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: for a fan that that has been a fan for
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: thirty forty years or whatever, because they like I said
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: this yesterday, they're not going anywhere, which is great. I mean,
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: that's that should be. You know, that's admirable. You're not
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: going anywhere. But you can think that way, you can think, well,
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: all right, this didn't work. You know, this isn't this
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: isn't poker where you're just like, nah, I don't like
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: this hand flow back. I'll wait for the next one. Cool,
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: I hope I get two aces. Doesn't work that way.
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: I mean, like like for this season, like this is
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: this is where they are this year. There's a lot
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: a lot of people still trying to win this year.
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: There's there's livelihoods, there's jobs, there's there's things on the
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: line that have to you know, happen to get this
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: thing kind of turned around. So and that's that's where
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: the focus is and that will remain the focus all
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: season long. All right, let's go to Ben in Lehigh, Utah.
• 13:18
  Speaker 6: Ben, Hey, Nick, how are you doing good? How are
• 13:22
  Speaker 6: you doing good? Hey? I just want to say about
• 13:25
  Speaker 6: the show. I was super hesitant at first, just because
• 13:28
  Speaker 6: I've listened to you and Derek for like fifteen years, okay,
• 13:32
  Speaker 6: and so it was weird to have you on the
• 13:34
  Speaker 6: show without Derek. But this is really cool. Yeah, getting nervous.
• 13:38
  Speaker 6: You were just saying it's easy for nothing is easy
• 13:40
  Speaker 6: about being a fan of this team, especially in Utah
• 13:43
  Speaker 6: where there's not a lot of us. But I think
• 13:47
  Speaker 6: at the beginning of the season or over the summer,
• 13:49
  Speaker 6: I was I wish I had truth there's growth that
• 13:52
  Speaker 6: I can present here. But I think I was one
• 13:54
  Speaker 6: of those who's like, no, I don't know about that.
• 13:55
  Speaker 6: I don't know about CD, I don't know about Micah.
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: And you know, Brad has plays those games, have signed,
• 14:01
  Speaker 6: one trade, one cut, one whatever, right, and I'm a coward.
• 14:05
  Speaker 6: I want all three. I thought maybe Micah would be
• 14:08
  Speaker 6: the one that we would try to trade, but after
• 14:10
  Speaker 6: watching the last five weeks without him, I think he's
• 14:13
  Speaker 6: way too important, and so I'm not I'm not about
• 14:17
  Speaker 6: a fire sell. I don't want any trade. I don't
• 14:20
  Speaker 6: want to go up any draft capital. I just I
• 14:22
  Speaker 6: just want to see how people respond to this. And
• 14:25
  Speaker 6: on the bright side, it just kind of takes the
• 14:27
  Speaker 6: anxiety down from week to week and you just get
• 14:30
  Speaker 6: to enjoy the ride a little bit. See how people
• 14:33
  Speaker 6: respond to adversity, see if there is anything. I don't
• 14:36
  Speaker 6: believe Micha will be back next year, but just see
• 14:39
  Speaker 6: kind of what what happens if there's anything in the
• 14:41
  Speaker 6: bones of the coaching staff and then the team that's
• 14:43
  Speaker 6: worth building around outside of our you know, our big
• 14:46
  Speaker 6: three to five players.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, all right, that's good. That's good perspective. I
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: appreciate that. And Ben, I would imagine this is first
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: time caller.
• 14:54
  Speaker 6: For you, right, definitely first time for this. I think
• 14:58
  Speaker 6: like five years ago I got the lunch break, but
• 15:01
  Speaker 6: that can't sure that counts.
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: We go from Dak who's probably going to IR So
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: it's all right, all right, thank you for the call, Ben,
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: and I and I appreciate that that perspective. It's you know,
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: and what I said about it's easy for fans, I
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: didn't I didn't know. I didn't say it's easy for fans.
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: I'm saying it's easy if you're a fan of thirty
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: forty years to just say, all right, all right, this
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: one's not this one's not working. Let's focus on next year,
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: let's trade, let's get our picks and for next year
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: and all that.
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: But it's just this team.
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: This the owner, even ownership, coaches players, I mean, they're
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: just they're not built that way. I mean, and I
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: don't know if they should be built that way honestly.
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: So this is this is where the focus is now.
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: And then you know they'll try to to to piece
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: this thing together, try to get a win, and that's
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: that's the thing. Gotta got to be Philly. Got to
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: be Philly this week. And and yeah, they're six and two,
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: their record is good. I don't think they're that great.
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: I mean, I don't think anybody is really the chief
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: The Chiefs are eight no. And we saw that game
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: Monday night and they you know, they don't look like,
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: you know, unbeatable, but they haven't been beaten, which is
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: which is great for them, and they're winning these close games.
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: But I don't think there's anybody in the league that
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: that is, you know, just head and shoulders above anyone,
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: especially against the Cowboys. So I think the Cowboys will
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: take that and say, all right, let's let's go win
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: a game. Yeah, Dak's out and getting some other players back,
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: let's go let's go win a game. All right, Let's
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: go to keith in Fernando Dina.
• 16:37
  Speaker 9: Beat Fernandina Beach, Florida.
• 16:39
  Speaker 11: All right.
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: I never said that before, So you know what that
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: means there we go, first time called. What's up, Keith?
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: How you doing?
• 16:48
  Speaker 9: Hey, I'm doing great, Nick, First time caller, longtime listener.
• 16:53
  Speaker 9: I love all of you guys shows. But I have
• 16:56
  Speaker 9: a question for you. Obviously, we are not sellers today,
• 17:00
  Speaker 9: we're buyers. What are the odds of us buying potentially
• 17:05
  Speaker 9: a running back or maybe defensive tackle. What are your thoughts?
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: I don't think the Cowboys are necessarily done yet for
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: you know, for Tuesday, I don't. I don't in the
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: trade deadline here in a few hours. I don't think
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: they're done. I could be wrong. I guess got the
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: sense maybe there's gonna be more to it, so we'll see.
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: Is that it for Keith?
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: You still there? Do you have another question or anything?
• 17:33
  Speaker 6: No?
• 17:33
  Speaker 12: That is it.
• 17:34
  Speaker 9: But basically, when I saw the trade this morning, I
• 17:37
  Speaker 9: understand the trade. He's a young player. Again, you're kind
• 17:40
  Speaker 9: of trading the second round potential second round guy who
• 17:44
  Speaker 9: for a fourth round And I understand that and everything,
• 17:47
  Speaker 9: But I just didn't feel like that wide receiver was
• 17:49
  Speaker 9: our worst position. I feel like that our running back
• 17:52
  Speaker 9: room and our defensive tackle rooms are our light in talent,
• 17:56
  Speaker 9: and I was just kind of hoping that they would
• 17:58
  Speaker 9: upgrade that.
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: Well, keith On, I'm gonna ask you this though. This
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: is where this is where as a you know, front
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: office GM, they're thinking ahead. You get to the you
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: get to the off season next year, and you're like CD,
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: Jalen Tolbert, let's just say his year kind of goes
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: as it is, and then Jalen Brooks and Flinoy. Are
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: you adding a receiver to that mix in free agency
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: or the draft? Yes, third or fourth round, second round possibly.
• 18:28
  Speaker 9: I think I think the other two positions I just
• 18:30
  Speaker 9: mentioned would probably be first, second or third.
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, And that's you know, and that's I think
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: that's the way I look at it, Like, Hey, if
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: you were to say, all right, next year, you're gonna
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: need some help, Well, what if we get a fourth
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: round pick next year and he's ready to play. He's
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: played two years and he's played half the year in
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: this system, so he's he's probably ready to go. That's
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: what I like about about that trade as I see
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: it as next year's fourth is for a ready to play,
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: big body, go up and get the ball type of receiver.
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: I'm fine with that.
• 19:04
  Speaker 6: I agree. I like the trade.
• 19:06
  Speaker 9: I guess some like you. I would like to see
• 19:08
  Speaker 9: a couple more today.
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: Okay, And that's fair, and that's fair, and that's you know,
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: because I don't know. I've seen Roy Williams, the receiver,
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: get traded from Detroit mid season and he didn't really
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: help a whole lot for that year. It's not easy.
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: It's not easy for guys to come in as a receiver. Now,
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: DeAndre Hopkins did it a little bit different. He's got
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: a great quarterback, he understands the game. He's played really
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: well in other systems. They did it to perfection. Not
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: all receivers are going to be able to do that.
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: So I don't know if you're going to get a
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: lot of production out of him this year. I mean some,
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: but not not a right away plug and play. It's
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: hard when the wide receiver. We saw it in the
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: game if you watch the Chiefs skin thanks for the call, Keith,
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: thank you appreciate it first call, but you saw.
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: For the game.
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: Even late in the game, Hopkins he thought it was
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: going to be a different route. He went deep and
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: Mahomes wanted to throw it quick. Those are the things
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: that are going to happen with the quarterback.
• 20:01
  Speaker 4: And receiver.
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: You know, you really need a full offseason to kind
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: of get that going. But I think he'll be able
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: to help some like like I said, big body guys,
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: a fifty to fifty catch type guy, throw it up,
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: so you might see some goal line, red zone type
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: plays with him. But I don't mind the trade from
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: that standpoint, knowing that you will need help next year
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: and you're gonna get it in with a fourth round
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: pick of a receiver that should be better than any
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: fourth round pick you're going to get next year. The
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: downside is you have him for two years and a
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: little higher contract than you would from a fourth year
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: guy with four year contract. Let's go to Zach in Atlanta.
• 20:45
  Speaker 9: Hey, what's up, Nick?
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: How are you doing?
• 20:46
  Speaker 13: Zach?
• 20:47
  Speaker 6: Do all right?
• 20:48
  Speaker 8: Man?
• 20:49
  Speaker 14: Last time I called you, I had the Backstreet Boys
• 20:51
  Speaker 14: song for you, Francisco.
• 20:54
  Speaker 4: Thank you got that lock in my head like all day?
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: So thanks?
• 20:58
  Speaker 14: Hey, that was the goal. But yeah, I'm feeling sad
• 21:02
  Speaker 14: today and if you were to ask me why, it
• 21:05
  Speaker 14: ain't nothing but a heartache.
• 21:06
  Speaker 15: Man.
• 21:08
  Speaker 14: It's uh, you know, it's one of those seasons. The
• 21:11
  Speaker 14: Atlanta fans here, the Falcons fans don't even want to
• 21:15
  Speaker 14: talk trash to me like it's just like the.
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: Game, Like, like, I know there's a lot of empty
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: seats for that game. I thought, wow, I mean, the
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: Falcon's got the Cowboys here, you can beat the Cowboys.
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: They're having a good year.
• 21:29
  Speaker 12: And yeah, he got an extra.
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: Hour sleep, so it's not like it was an early
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: I mean, come on, I thought that was It was interesting.
• 21:37
  Speaker 14: I know, we we thought they were going to turn
• 21:39
  Speaker 14: out and Droves all that to say, yeah, it.
• 21:45
  Speaker 9: Is what it is.
• 21:48
  Speaker 14: You know, watching the Chiefs game last night and just
• 21:51
  Speaker 14: over the years, everything is clean, everything is crisp, there's
• 21:55
  Speaker 14: no mistakes. I get you have an all world quarterback
• 22:00
  Speaker 14: and a great coach, but it'd just be nice to
• 22:04
  Speaker 14: see that on the Cowboys. I mean, the priest map
• 22:07
  Speaker 14: penalties were atrocious. Just seems like we can't get out
• 22:12
  Speaker 14: of our own way for many years now, not just
• 22:15
  Speaker 14: the Mike McCarthy era. Seems like there's always something. But
• 22:20
  Speaker 14: you know it, it's a roller coaster where the wheels
• 22:23
  Speaker 14: have fallen off. But I am buckled in. I can
• 22:26
  Speaker 14: undo my harness and we're Jeorge. We're trucking along.
• 22:31
  Speaker 12: Man.
• 22:32
  Speaker 9: I'm a storyliner.
• 22:32
  Speaker 14: I'm a die hard. I know I'm gonna keep calling in.
• 22:35
  Speaker 14: I love this team. I've loved him for thirty one
• 22:38
  Speaker 14: years and it just sucks. So that's all I got, man.
• 22:43
  Speaker 14: I appreciate you doing what you do and Beam and
• 22:45
  Speaker 14: y'all showing up for us and giving us the space
• 22:48
  Speaker 14: to process and talk football and lament and celebrate. So yeah, man,
• 22:56
  Speaker 14: the Mingo trade not crazy on it. I think we
• 22:58
  Speaker 14: have Ryan Flinoyd maybe he can and I feel like
• 23:01
  Speaker 14: they're similar type players. I saw stat Mingo hasn't had
• 23:05
  Speaker 14: a touchdown and is a NFL career. He's a year
• 23:07
  Speaker 14: and a half into it. The Panthers offense is not stellar,
• 23:10
  Speaker 14: but that's that's a little disappointing. Maybe he'll flourish in Dallas,
• 23:15
  Speaker 14: but time will tell. All right, man, that's all I got.
• 23:18
  Speaker 14: Have a great day, y'all, take care, all right.
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: Thank you?
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: Uh yeah, I obviously you know the Panthers, they what
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: they see is a guy that you know, didn't they
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: probably thought he would be much further along, maybe help
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: the young quarterbacks. And and also you know Andy Dalton
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: has played there some for them as well, So whatever
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: it is, I mean, sometimes you just need a fresh
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: start again. I this is not a second round pick.
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: You know, as far as the Cowboys are giving second
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: round pick, they're giving next year's fourth. And you know
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: the fourth round pick has been interesting. I'll talk about
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: that when we come back after our next break. But
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: before we do that, let's go to Rob in Vegas.
• 24:02
  Speaker 4: Rob.
• 24:02
  Speaker 12: What's up, hey, Nick?
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: How you doing?
• 24:06
  Speaker 12: I'm doing good? How are you good?
• 24:07
  Speaker 4: Good?
• 24:10
  Speaker 12: I mean this this pick is I don't know, it's nothing.
• 24:14
  Speaker 12: It's it's a guy.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 24:17
  Speaker 12: I think a fourth is way too high for somebody
• 24:21
  Speaker 12: like this, But I get it. They paid extra because
• 24:24
  Speaker 12: he's cheap. But you said something about he fits the system,
• 24:29
  Speaker 12: the system.
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: I don't know. I didn't. I don't think I said
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: he fits the system. I think he would know the system.
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: He would know.
• 24:36
  Speaker 12: But the problem with that is that system is going.
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: By he'll know that then. I mean, I get what
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: you're saying. I get what you're saying. He'll he'll know,
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: he'll know.
• 24:46
  Speaker 12: The players don't build around this coaching staff. They're gone.
• 24:50
  Speaker 12: And that's why don't invest any capital until you hire
• 24:55
  Speaker 12: a new coach. Let him have a say on who's
• 24:59
  Speaker 12: he want, what his vision of this team is. I
• 25:03
  Speaker 12: don't want Jerry's vision. That vision is bad. I want
• 25:07
  Speaker 12: a new head coach's vision and save this draft capital.
• 25:12
  Speaker 12: Flip round pick is big. Now you want to go
• 25:17
  Speaker 12: trade Cooks today and maybe get back a fifth I
• 25:22
  Speaker 12: think that would be a great move. You want to
• 25:24
  Speaker 12: put the Land or Digs up for trade because the
• 25:28
  Speaker 12: land has got one more year left. I doubt you're
• 25:31
  Speaker 12: going to sign him to twenty five million plus, So
• 25:36
  Speaker 12: you want to make a move like that for the
• 25:38
  Speaker 12: future and get a high draft pick. I think that's
• 25:41
  Speaker 12: that's great. We know this team doesn't use free agency, though,
• 25:45
  Speaker 12: so they're going to need as many picks as they
• 25:48
  Speaker 12: can because they're about six players away. Now you've got
• 25:54
  Speaker 12: to replace Zach Martin. You may have to replace parents Steel,
• 26:00
  Speaker 12: two guys that maybe you weren't sure. You know, you
• 26:02
  Speaker 12: didn't think give may have to replace. So I don't
• 26:05
  Speaker 12: want them to make any moves. You're not saving Mike
• 26:09
  Speaker 12: McCarthy's job. I don't like. I can't believe Jerry comes
• 26:13
  Speaker 12: out and says I have full confidence. No, you don't
• 26:16
  Speaker 12: because you didn't pay them, so you don't have full
• 26:19
  Speaker 12: confidence in them. So stuck with that, let's just let
• 26:23
  Speaker 12: it ride. Being a fan. Now, you know, I think
• 26:27
  Speaker 12: I said I used to watch the games, and you
• 26:29
  Speaker 12: know I wouldn't even eat because I'd be all Now
• 26:31
  Speaker 12: you watch these games like why you're doing something else
• 26:34
  Speaker 12: because unfortunately they're easy. They're easy to watch. Now you
• 26:38
  Speaker 12: don't expect much, all right, Well, it's when you when
• 26:45
  Speaker 12: you're when you want the Cowboys, when you expect the
• 26:48
  Speaker 12: Cowboys to be good every game, you're into it because
• 26:50
  Speaker 12: you're expecting something bigger, Playoff, super Bowl. Now you're going
• 26:55
  Speaker 12: to be watching players you're gonna be seeing looking at
• 26:58
  Speaker 12: this guy. Oh, let's see how you know? Gite you
• 27:00
  Speaker 12: getting any better? Yeah? You know, you start looking at
• 27:03
  Speaker 12: it totally different. I don't expect this team to go
• 27:06
  Speaker 12: on any kind of winning spree with Cooper Rush. Okay,
• 27:11
  Speaker 12: weren't good with with with sixty million dollars quarterbacks. So
• 27:16
  Speaker 12: to me, let's see what happens. It's kind of relaxing, unfortunately,
• 27:20
  Speaker 12: and if you're a fan that's relaxed, I mean you
• 27:22
  Speaker 12: seem it's pretty bad.
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah all right, thanks Rob, thanks for the call. I
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: you know, I'll never tell anybody how to a fan.
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: You know, you fan however you want, so you watch
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: the games with ever and believe me. And like I
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: I watch the games, you know, when I'm a fan
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: of a team, I watched the games differently. I got
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: my own kind of ritual. I do things. I turn
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: it off, I will I'll go outside, I'll walk, I'll
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: do whatever I need to do to kind of to
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: what I think might might work in this situation and
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: kind of trick yourself into I don't care, I don't
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: care that kind of stuff. I've tried that once before,
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: and you know I've tried that several times before.
• 28:02
  Speaker 4: It doesn't always work. You can't. You can kind of
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: change your heart on what you believe. So I get it.
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: Like you know, you're not as invested or some of
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: the players, some of the fans won't be. But we'll say,
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: though it's kind of hard to get that out of
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: your system. When they kick off, you still kind of
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: I think you revert back to it. And that's what's
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: being a fans all about. All right, let's go take
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: our break here on Cowboys storyline. We'll be right back
• 28:25

• 30:29
  Speaker 4: How you doing?
• 30:30
  Speaker 6: All right?
• 30:32
  Speaker 15: Just quick point and of course of trivia. I'm I'm
• 30:35
  Speaker 15: staying positive. I just too much negativity. I hear you
• 30:39
  Speaker 15: three and five. But you know, Dak made a comment
• 30:44
  Speaker 15: earlier in the year. I don't know what game it
• 30:45
  Speaker 15: was after be a fan, Just be a fan. And
• 30:48
  Speaker 15: as to the previous caller. I'm never relaxed watching a
• 30:52
  Speaker 15: Cowboy game, Okay, I mean eighty eight, eighty nine, the
• 30:56
  Speaker 15: worst years, I'm never I'm never relaxed. That's what.
• 31:00
  Speaker 9: That's what being a fan is.
• 31:02
  Speaker 15: Just And the other thing I don't like, and I
• 31:05
  Speaker 15: know you don't do this either, but the people who
• 31:06
  Speaker 15: are saying to and I don't even use the word tank,
• 31:09
  Speaker 15: you know, lose for the draft pick. No, I don't
• 31:12
  Speaker 15: even care when they're eliminated. I Am never going to
• 31:16
  Speaker 15: root or hope that they don't win a game.
• 31:20
  Speaker 8: I just that's not that's not my uh, that's.
• 31:22
  Speaker 15: Not the pan I am. And I hope, I hope
• 31:24
  Speaker 15: most people are like that, you know, who will watch it.
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the way I that's the way I feel
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: about it as well. But you know, I understand that,
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: you know, you do understand where like, man, if they
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: won the game, they'll you know, they'll pick fifteenth. If
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: they lose, they they'll pick tenth. I get that, but
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: I just look at it, like, just just tell me
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: where you're picking. And and it's fine, but I mean,
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: I'm going I'm going to try to win the game.
• 31:49
  Speaker 15: That's I'll just say this I remember last game of
• 31:52
  Speaker 15: the eighty eight season. I remember because Aikman. I'm pretty
• 31:56
  Speaker 15: sure UCLA was in the cotton bowlly because I remember
• 31:59
  Speaker 15: Aikman talking to Landry actually prior to that, and it
• 32:03
  Speaker 15: was pretty much a foregone conclusion that they were drafting
• 32:05
  Speaker 15: eighth and if they had the number one pick, and
• 32:08
  Speaker 15: they had to lose to Philly that day, and even
• 32:10
  Speaker 15: at that I was like, I wasn't looting against them.
• 32:12
  Speaker 15: And they actually did lose on the left the last
• 32:15
  Speaker 15: day and did get that pick, and real quick to
• 32:19
  Speaker 15: trivia now, believe it or not, thirty five years ago
• 32:22
  Speaker 15: today RFK Stadium, nineteen eighty nine Cowboys got They're only
• 32:27
  Speaker 15: one of the one in fifteen season. Now we know
• 32:31
  Speaker 15: who the quarterback was in Walsh. Do you remember who
• 32:34
  Speaker 15: the leading rusher was who scored the only touchdown that game?
• 32:38
  Speaker 4: I know you do, Yeah, you know idea, Yeah, Paul Palmer.
• 32:42
  Speaker 14: Paul Palm, number twenty six.
• 32:44
  Speaker 3: Out of Temple. It was a great college player. And
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: I bounced around a little bit some other teams, but yeah,
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: Paul Palmer scored Steve Walls yep, thirteen to three.
• 32:53
  Speaker 15: Yeah, you know, I'm sorry, what.
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: What I loved about that is in the newspaper the
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: next day. If you're an older if you're an old
• 33:00
  Speaker 3: person like me, you remember this old TV show called
• 33:02
  Speaker 3: eight is Enough, and that was that was the headline
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: because they were owing eight and they won that game there,
• 33:07
  Speaker 3: so eight is enough. They finally won a game. I'll
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: never forget that. I actually used that. I stole that
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: headline for my college paper when our team was oing
• 33:15
  Speaker 3: eight and one. I stole that like ten years later,
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: but whatever, that's what I remember out of that game.
• 33:20
  Speaker 4: But yeah, Paul Palmer, Yeah.
• 33:22
  Speaker 15: And I don't I'm not a big stat person, but
• 33:25
  Speaker 15: that number. I think he led the team with four
• 33:28
  Speaker 15: hundred and some odd yards rushing.
• 33:30
  Speaker 12: For the year.
• 33:31
  Speaker 15: We are going to beat that this year, right because
• 33:33
  Speaker 15: I think he led the team with four hundred was
• 33:36
  Speaker 15: the leading rush for bout four hundred.
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: I'm gonta find that for you here real quick.
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: For Palmer, Oh my god, wow, Holy, how about this one?
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: You know who was second with three hundred and two
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: rushing yards.
• 33:48
  Speaker 15: It's got to be like the quarterback or something eaten.
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: He only played three hundred yards. He was rushing, probably
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: got sacked eighty times.
• 33:56
  Speaker 15: But yeah, I have a go one next.
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: All right, thanks, have a good good day, Steve, appreciate that.
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: I always like to look back Lester and Minnesota's next.
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: Leicester, what's up?
• 34:10
  Speaker 11: Hello?
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: What's up?
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: You're on?
• 34:13
  Speaker 4: You're on? What's up?
• 34:14
  Speaker 12: Man? Hey?
• 34:15
  Speaker 11: Hey, I'm gonna be positive as well. I think that
• 34:21
  Speaker 11: Cooper Rush. I mean, he came in a couple of
• 34:24
  Speaker 11: three years ago and he won. We went four and one,
• 34:28
  Speaker 11: and he could have easily went five and zero, but
• 34:30
  Speaker 11: Philadelphia spoiled us right there. And I'm not a component
• 34:35
  Speaker 11: of selling either. I understand what Rob was saying. But we,
• 34:41
  Speaker 11: as I always say, we need to have an offensive
• 34:45
  Speaker 11: and defensive line good to very good at the same time.
• 34:49
  Speaker 11: So I feel like we're we have a glaring need
• 34:53
  Speaker 11: on the defensive line. So maybe if we're still going
• 34:55
  Speaker 11: to be trading today or whatever we're gonna do, maybe
• 34:58
  Speaker 11: we should look at that part. I still think we
• 35:02
  Speaker 11: could be Philly. I'm on the hope, So I think
• 35:08
  Speaker 11: the score, if we keep it low, I'm gonna go
• 35:12
  Speaker 11: fourteen to ten, all right, That's all I got.
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: All right, man, I see that being the score in
• 35:20
  Speaker 3: the second quarter of the game, fourteen to ten. I
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: think it's gonna be hard for the Cowboys to keep
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: that offense to low scoring. I mean, a high scoring
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: game I don't think bodes well for the Cowboys either,
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: So probably for.
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: Me somewhere in the middle.
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: But you know, it's gonna have to take turnovers and
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: weird plays, floky plays like that. I think Philadelphia, you know,
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: like I said before, I mean their defense looks like
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: it's a little bit vulnerable this year. You're seeing some
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: teams score on them, but you're also seeing their offense,
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: you know, kind of get it together too. And so
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: they've been they've been kind of tough to figure out,
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: you know. But I know that they did have an
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: injury there in aj Brown. I know he left the game.
• 36:03
  Speaker 3: I don't know if he came back. I know he
• 36:05
  Speaker 3: did not come back. I'm not sure what his status is,
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: but you know, it hurts is a is a tough dynamic.
• 36:11
  Speaker 3: And then Barkley and I still can't believe that played,
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: Like did that really happen? That highlight that I saw
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: that that almost looked like like fake, like you see
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: that in the movies, Like he really jumped over someone
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: backwards like that. Maybe I dreamt that that was like
• 36:27
  Speaker 3: the craziest way I've ever seen. I need to check
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: that out again. Let's go to another phone call though,
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: Josh in Chicago.
• 36:34
  Speaker 4: Josh, what's up, hey, Nick?
• 36:35
  Speaker 18: How you doing today?
• 36:36
  Speaker 6: How are you not bad?
• 36:38
  Speaker 18: I know it's been said the man, your show is
• 36:40
  Speaker 18: tough to get into the past few weeks.
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: Thank you.
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: I guess it's a thank you. I mean, I thanks
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: to the fans, is what it is. Thank you to
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: the fans that keep calling. And you know, I think
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: they like to get in here and have fun and
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: then talk about the team, vent whatever it is. So
• 36:55
  Speaker 3: I like it and I appreciate you know that it's
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: it's a it's popular and tough to get in.
• 36:59
  Speaker 4: I think that's a good thing.
• 37:00
  Speaker 18: Oh yeah, I think some of the other shows are
• 37:02
  Speaker 18: jealous because they keep trying to do fans calls on
• 37:04
  Speaker 18: you know, the Break or See That or talking or
• 37:06
  Speaker 18: other shows.
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: So, you know what, I'm fine with that too, because,
• 37:10
  Speaker 3: like you just said, not everybody can get in, you know, everybody,
• 37:14
  Speaker 3: you know, like, oh I want to hear I got
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: some points too, And whether it's this show, maybe it's
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: another show, you know, like, that's that's fine too. At
• 37:21
  Speaker 3: leasty you know, have an opportunity to get in and
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: some I see some other shows taking calls.
• 37:25
  Speaker 4: I think that's a good thing, honestly.
• 37:27
  Speaker 18: Oh yeah, definitely. So the point I was going to
• 37:29
  Speaker 18: make really quick, you know, I just wanted to say,
• 37:32
  Speaker 18: especially with back possibly head into the IR, they really
• 37:34
  Speaker 18: need somebody to step up and be a leader. I
• 37:36
  Speaker 18: think what Trayvon did last week after the incident with
• 37:40
  Speaker 18: Mike Leslie, you know, bearing the hatch and stuff, really
• 37:42
  Speaker 18: showed his leadership. And hopefully Mike can come back and
• 37:46
  Speaker 18: kind of show his leadership and his value in that realm,
• 37:48
  Speaker 18: and maybe even Zeke needs to say something not to
• 37:51
  Speaker 18: the team to address what happened, and possibly, you know,
• 37:54
  Speaker 18: one of those guys stepping up and saying like, hey,
• 37:56
  Speaker 18: that's going to be down for a while. I'm going
• 37:57
  Speaker 18: to be the leader of this team and kind of
• 37:59
  Speaker 18: put it on the back because we still have a
• 38:01
  Speaker 18: lot of season to go. And you know, I know
• 38:02
  Speaker 18: some people are giving up and whatever, you know that
• 38:04
  Speaker 18: fan how you want a fan, But there's still a
• 38:06
  Speaker 18: lot of season left to be played, a lot of games,
• 38:08
  Speaker 18: a lot of division games left to be played, so
• 38:10
  Speaker 18: it's not over yet. And uh, you know, hopefully we
• 38:13
  Speaker 18: can pull out some wins.
• 38:14
  Speaker 12: Here a go Cowboys.
• 38:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, I appreciate the call there, Josha. Good
• 38:19
  Speaker 3: stuff for sure. And and you know, leadership is always
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: a tough thing. It's tough to qualify and you kind
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: of have to it's got to be in your DNA
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: to to to be that that type of guy, you know.
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: I think I think there's some some there. There's there's
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: guys that that can do it and step up. I
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: think more than anything, the leadership that it's got to
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: happen out here at practice. It's got to happen in
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: the middle of the week. It's got to happen, you know,
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: when when they're preparing for games and and uh, you
• 38:50
  Speaker 3: know whatever wherever that's coming from. They've got to be
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: a better team to to prepare, uh, and they got
• 38:57
  Speaker 3: to be ready for the for the Eagles or any
• 38:58
  Speaker 3: team that they're facing. And that's just what hasn't been
• 39:01
  Speaker 3: happening is that this team doesn't look prepared and they're
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: not coming out and they're not playing well to start
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: a game. So and it's obviously you know now, and
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: they're not really good enough to play from behind. Let
• 39:13
  Speaker 3: me take one more break here on the Cowboys storyline.

• 41:06
  Speaker 13: couple of boys. We actually started our own podcast about
• 41:09
  Speaker 13: the Cowboys and just wanted to give a huge shout
• 41:11
  Speaker 13: out to you. You were a huge inspiration behind us
• 41:14
  Speaker 13: kind of We listened to the storyline all the time
• 41:18
  Speaker 13: and we just wanted to, you know, give you a
• 41:20
  Speaker 13: shout out, say thanks for the motivation and you know,
• 41:22
  Speaker 13: the inspiration. We've learned a lot from you.
• 41:25
  Speaker 4: Thank you.
• 41:25
  Speaker 6: Just tuning in down.
• 41:27
  Speaker 13: I'm not sure if you go already answered this question,
• 41:29
  Speaker 13: but what is a realistic expectation for this Dallas Cowboys offense?
• 41:34
  Speaker 13: With seems like Cooper Rush at the helm of things?
• 41:38
  Speaker 13: Like what should we be expecting as Cowboys fans? That
• 41:41
  Speaker 13: that's all I got for you today.
• 41:42
  Speaker 4: Nick, what's the name of your podcasts?
• 41:45
  Speaker 13: Our podcast is We Them Boys with.
• 41:48
  Speaker 4: A Z nice.
• 41:51
  Speaker 3: I feel like I'm honestly a little bit surprised that
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: that that's the name of it, Like there isn't another
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: one already that that's been developed on that cool We
• 41:59
  Speaker 3: didn't boys are right? Well, good luck with your podcast
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: for sure. Thanks for the for the call and the question.
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: Realistic realistic expectations for the Cowboys offense? I think it's
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: if if the the defensive guys weren't coming back, this
• 42:17
  Speaker 3: was gonna be.
• 42:19
  Speaker 4: Really, really tough.
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: It's already gonna be tough, But I do think the
• 42:24
  Speaker 3: defense should be better, and they're playing a little bit better.
• 42:28
  Speaker 3: You know, you're starting to see some guy's place better.
• 42:31
  Speaker 3: I like, I like what I'm seeing at a Lawson,
• 42:33
  Speaker 3: you know, uh, and he doesn't have a real defensive
• 42:37
  Speaker 3: end pass rusher on the other side of Goalston. I
• 42:40
  Speaker 3: still think is kind of playing out of position. So
• 42:42
  Speaker 3: I'd like to see what Lawson's doing. Now you get
• 42:44
  Speaker 3: Micah coming back. I want to see Digs and Bland
• 42:47
  Speaker 3: together like once. That'd be nice. I want to see
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: what the safeties look like when you have those corners
• 42:54
  Speaker 3: in the pass rusher there. So I say all that
• 42:56
  Speaker 3: to answer you the offensive question. I think if the
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: defense can be better, I don't think that they can
• 43:02
  Speaker 3: just you know, shut it down and and the Cowboys
• 43:05
  Speaker 3: score fifteen points, seventeen points to win a game, They're
• 43:08
  Speaker 3: gonna have to score, you know, some points. But I
• 43:10
  Speaker 3: think you'll see a little bit more ball control, uh
• 43:13
  Speaker 3: you know. And what's interesting is is you'll probably see
• 43:18
  Speaker 3: more shots down the field. I think that is something
• 43:21
  Speaker 3: that that Cooper rush does well. And I but you
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: have to run the ball a little bit to get
• 43:26
  Speaker 3: some of that play action. But I will I will say,
• 43:29
  Speaker 3: I think you're gonna see some more some more deep shots,
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: you know. And that's where I think Tolbert can can
• 43:34
  Speaker 3: come into play. Obviously, CD maybe Jalen Brooks, who knows,
• 43:38
  Speaker 3: if he goes ready to go, I don't know, he
• 43:43
  Speaker 3: could be.
• 43:44
  Speaker 4: All right, let's go to Pastor Tolls he's in Montgomery, Alabama. Pastor,
• 43:51
  Speaker 4: what's up?
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: How you doing there?
• 43:53
  Speaker 4: I'm good? How are you?
• 43:54
  Speaker 11: Oh?
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: I'm doing pretty good.
• 43:56
  Speaker 12: Listen.
• 43:58
  Speaker 6: Before you know, I've.
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: Better Cowboys fan ever since I was twelve years old.
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: But anyway, to make a long story short, I wouldn't
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: be not I wouldn't be surprised if the Cowboys would
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: string up three or four games in a row now.
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: And it's not because I know people love controversions that
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: the quarterback that they will put in would be so
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: much better than that. I just think that the play
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: calling is going to change. I think they're gonna govern
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: it down a little bit and run the ball and
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: stick to it. And then I think that quarterback he
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: has a good beet ball, he can throw some good shot.
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: And I just think that's what's going to happen. Now.
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: There's always something going on around around Dallas, and so
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: that would be a good controversy. People love that. So
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: it just seems like it's set up to happen. So
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: but I'm a fan, So let it happen. Let's just
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: win three or four games, and I'll be okay, all right.
• 44:51
  Speaker 3: All right, I like it. I mean, Lord knows, we
• 44:54
  Speaker 3: need we need. I'll take one game right now, much
• 44:57
  Speaker 3: less than two or three or four. But I like it, uh,
• 45:00
  Speaker 3: And I think I think it. You know, I don't
• 45:03
  Speaker 3: know how realistic that is right now. I mean, but
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: but I do think. You know, you can't win three
• 45:09
  Speaker 3: without winning one, and I think I think they're all winnable.
• 45:13
  Speaker 4: But I don't.
• 45:13
  Speaker 3: I just don't think this team is showing enough consistency
• 45:16
  Speaker 3: to like string two or three together. I mean, they
• 45:19
  Speaker 3: had a game against Pittsburgh. They played really well against
• 45:22
  Speaker 3: the good football team on the road, dramatic win, and
• 45:25
  Speaker 3: then come back and lose forty with forty seven to nine.
• 45:28
  Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, that ridiculous loss against the against the Lions.
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: The Lions are playing great football. The Lions probably are
• 45:35
  Speaker 3: the best football team in the NFL right now. I
• 45:38
  Speaker 3: would think so, I would. I would think they would
• 45:42
  Speaker 3: be maybe even favored to beat the Chiefs if they
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: were to play. I think they're that good. But you know,
• 45:49
  Speaker 3: you still, that was it was a horrific loss. And
• 45:52
  Speaker 3: so for the Cowboys to play the way they did
• 45:54
  Speaker 3: in that game coming off of win, that just shows
• 45:57
  Speaker 3: their lack of consistency right now. And they don't even
• 46:00
  Speaker 3: they can't even string together a drive here. They can't
• 46:03
  Speaker 3: even get the ball go down the field. I mean,
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: you saw the first first drive of the game the
• 46:08
  Speaker 3: other day. Nice, wow, Jake Ferguson up the middle. You know,
• 46:11
  Speaker 3: thought he might score for a second, but great play.
• 46:13
  Speaker 3: And then here comes Rico and then he makes a
• 46:16
  Speaker 3: guy miss, and then another playss to Ferguson's boom boom
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: boom down into the red zone, and then they can't
• 46:23
  Speaker 3: do anything. And then they kick a field goal, and
• 46:26
  Speaker 3: then it kind of you know, like like at that
• 46:28
  Speaker 3: point you're like, wow, the defense got to stop. The
• 46:30
  Speaker 3: offense goes and does that. It's looking good. And then
• 46:34
  Speaker 3: they and then they kick a field goal and then
• 46:36
  Speaker 3: they go score and it's kind of like, yeah, this
• 46:37
  Speaker 3: is the game I remember. And so that's that's just
• 46:40
  Speaker 3: what I'm trying to say, is is you know, it's
• 46:42
  Speaker 3: just been kind of hard for them to build any
• 46:45
  Speaker 3: kind of consistency. All right, Well, we we built a
• 46:49
  Speaker 3: pretty good show today. I appreciate everybody calling in and
• 46:52
  Speaker 3: and and their perspectives, and you know, it's it's different,
• 46:55
  Speaker 3: but that's fine. I Mean, we're all different in the
• 46:57
  Speaker 3: way we think on stuff like that up to kind
• 47:02
  Speaker 3: of reset a little bit. The Cowboys did make a trade,
• 47:06
  Speaker 3: or they're finalizing the trade, should be done maybe by now,
• 47:09
  Speaker 3: but they've traded for wide receiver Jonathan Mingo from the
• 47:12
  Speaker 3: Carolina Panthers. They'll send a fourth round pick next year
• 47:15
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty five for him, and they'll get a seventh
• 47:19
  Speaker 3: round pick in return. Remember, they're gonna get about four
• 47:22
  Speaker 3: comp picks next year, and maybe even as high as
• 47:25
  Speaker 3: a fourth rounder for one of them with some of
• 47:28
  Speaker 3: these free agencies that they lost. So we're talking about
• 47:31
  Speaker 3: starting running back Tony Pollard and things like that. So
• 47:34
  Speaker 3: they might have a fourth round pick also there as well.
• 47:38
  Speaker 3: So still they're gonna get a guy on Jonathan Mingo
• 47:40
  Speaker 3: who's got two years left on this contract. So I
• 47:42
  Speaker 3: think that's probably the upside of what they like out
• 47:45
  Speaker 3: of that move. All right, we'll talk about it all tomorrow.
• 47:47
  Speaker 3: I'll see if the Cowboys make some more moves here.
• 47:50
  Speaker 3: We'll see you tomorrow on Cowboys Storyline. See you.
