- 0:02Speaker 1: The following.
- 0:03Speaker 2: He is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and
- 0:05Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
- 0:08Speaker 3: Cowboys.
- 0:11Speaker 2: This is Cowboys storyline presented by Gellette, the official shave
- 0:17Speaker 2: of the Dallas Cowboys.
- 0:19Speaker 1: Here's Nick Eatman. What's up? Welcome to Cowboys storyline presented
- 0:28Speaker 1: by Gellette. I'm Nick eat Min. It's Friday, October the third.
- 0:32Speaker 1: Let's go to New York tomorrow. Cowboys head up to
- 0:36Speaker 1: New York once again. It's time to face the Jets.
- 0:39Speaker 1: Don't have many games against the Jets. It was fun
- 0:42Speaker 1: to do the Cowboys trivia question if you've seen that
- 0:46Speaker 1: on the website. Twenty questions. Not easy. Kurt Daniels, he's
- 0:52Speaker 1: on hanging with the boys. He like does most of them.
- 0:55Speaker 1: I fill in with a few, but it's it's there's been,
- 1:00Speaker 1: there's been some interesting dynamics.
- 1:02Speaker 4: You know.
- 1:02Speaker 1: We just even with a few games with the Jets.
- 1:05Speaker 1: Just so if you haven't seen it, check it out.
- 1:07Speaker 1: Maybe maybe we'll get some trivia questions today. That's what
- 1:10Speaker 1: I should do. Every time I get one, I should
- 1:11Speaker 1: throw one back at these guys. Gary from New Mexico,
- 1:14Speaker 1: he does it. Who else? Steve from New York got
- 1:17Speaker 1: one yesterday to kind of a trivia type question. So
- 1:20Speaker 1: it's always fun, all right, A FI five to two
- 1:23Speaker 1: ninety seven. I'm sure we're gonna get a lot of picks.
- 1:26Speaker 1: I'm interesting interested to see if the anyone goes with
- 1:30Speaker 1: the Jets. I'm not even sure what my gut feeling
- 1:33Speaker 1: is gonna be. I don't feel great about this game.
- 1:36Speaker 1: This is kind of I wouldn't call it a trap
- 1:38Speaker 1: game because Cowboys I don't think are good enough to
- 1:41Speaker 1: be in the trap game. I just think it's a
- 1:44Speaker 1: game that they could lose, and I don't think that's
- 1:47Speaker 1: anything trap about it. I just think that this is
- 1:49Speaker 1: one where in the NFL you you kind of see
- 1:52Speaker 1: teams eventually win, and I think the Jets have enough
- 1:56Speaker 1: talent where that they could. So I don't know. I
- 1:58Speaker 1: don't know how I feel about this one yet. Will
- 2:00Speaker 1: probably come down to the injuries. A lot of question
- 2:02Speaker 1: marks there all across the board with injuries. All right,
- 2:05Speaker 1: let's go to the phone lines. Michael Bowling, Green, Kentucky.
- 2:09Speaker 5: Michael, all right, I'm gonna be quick, everybody getting your
- 2:13Speaker 5: picks and everything. I just got a question and a prediction.
- 2:16Speaker 5: My my question is, well, Blue is supposed to play.
- 2:21Speaker 5: How well do you think he's gonna do? And is
- 2:25Speaker 5: Tyler Smith gonna play?
- 2:27Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a great question. Okay, you got a prediction.
- 2:32Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go Dallas Cowboys Green
- 2:36Speaker 5: Bay Packers nineteen seventy eight, which was forty two to fourteen.
- 2:43Speaker 1: Doubts got it. Forty two to fourteen. Okay, all right,
- 2:49Speaker 1: thanks for the call. That's that's not what I'm what
- 2:52Speaker 1: I'm picking obviously. I just got to say. And I
- 2:55Speaker 1: just don't feel great about this game. I hope, I
- 2:58Speaker 1: hope you're right forty two fourteen. He would be a
- 3:00Speaker 1: lot of fun. How is Jaden Blue going to play?
- 3:03Speaker 1: I think he'll play like a like a rookie, like
- 3:08Speaker 1: like a rookie that people are excited about. So therefore
- 3:13Speaker 1: you'll you'll see some some things, you know, some some
- 3:17Speaker 1: speed elements, some flash plays, maybe catch the ball out
- 3:21Speaker 1: of the backfield. That he's gonna probably be the return guy.
- 3:23Speaker 1: I don't think Turpen's gonna play this week, so I
- 3:26Speaker 1: could see him getting some opportunities as a returner. I
- 3:29Speaker 1: think you'll see what what rookies do. They'll make some
- 3:32Speaker 1: nice plays. They'll make some that make you scratch your head.
- 3:35Speaker 1: But that's that's what he needs.
- 3:37Speaker 3: You know.
- 3:37Speaker 1: He's only played just a little bit in the preseason.
- 3:39Speaker 1: He's a guy that needed to play a little more
- 3:41Speaker 1: probably so, you know, but he was hurt, so it's
- 3:45Speaker 1: not like they didn't want to play him. He was
- 3:47Speaker 1: banged up some there. All right, let's go to Dylan
- 3:49Speaker 1: and Wichita Falls. He's next, Dylan.
- 3:51Speaker 5: What's up going on, Nick?
- 3:54Speaker 1: How's it going over there in Wichita Falls?
- 3:57Speaker 5: Pretty good?
- 3:58Speaker 6: Man, pretty good?
- 3:58Speaker 1: You watch any of the high games, I know, I
- 4:01Speaker 1: know it's all different since I was there. They got
- 4:04Speaker 1: no yeah, but.
- 4:05Speaker 6: Yeah, the roder Oldhah and hershey are all gone now.
- 4:08Speaker 6: Now it's a memorial and legacy high schools out here,
- 4:11Speaker 6: just the two big ones.
- 4:13Speaker 1: I mean, guys, if you think about that, like where
- 4:15Speaker 1: you're from, and like how they have two or three
- 4:18Speaker 1: high schools that you just grew up, you know, just
- 4:21Speaker 1: either you went to them or rivals, and they just
- 4:24Speaker 1: took them all away all over are gone and now
- 4:26Speaker 1: and now there's just two new high schools. It's it's crazy.
- 4:29Speaker 1: It's unbelievable that all right.
- 4:30Speaker 6: Sorry, yeah, it's crazy because old hig has been around
- 4:33Speaker 6: since you know, they were playing football back in the fifties,
- 4:35Speaker 6: you know.
- 4:35Speaker 1: Like unbelievable. All right, sorry, just venting here for it's
- 4:40Speaker 1: almost like it's like talking about the weather. We don't
- 4:43Speaker 1: do it, you know because most people, for ninety nine
- 4:45Speaker 1: percent of the people, they don't care. All right, Day one,
- 4:47Speaker 1: what's up.
- 4:49Speaker 6: This quick question today? It's about Marquise Bell. You know,
- 4:53Speaker 6: in den Quinn's defense when he was playing linebacker. I mean,
- 4:55Speaker 6: he showed us some good stuff. It was just the
- 4:57Speaker 6: running downs when the d line was letting often the
- 5:00Speaker 6: line getting to the second level and get everything getting
- 5:02Speaker 6: blown up. But with the level of defensive tackle play
- 5:04Speaker 6: we have now which our rotation might be one of
- 5:07Speaker 6: the best in the NFL right now, do you think
- 5:09Speaker 6: it would be beneficial to fail back in at rotation
- 5:11Speaker 6: at linebacker now that we're controlling the rundowns a little
- 5:14Speaker 6: bit better at the line of scrimmage?
- 5:17Speaker 1: Yellen, that might be the best question of the week.
- 5:19Speaker 1: That really is a good question. I mean, that's that's
- 5:22Speaker 1: next level stuff. I mean, and maybe it's not next level,
- 5:25Speaker 1: but I mean it's it's you're thinking that way of like, yeah,
- 5:29Speaker 1: you may maybe so because the defensive tackles could not
- 5:31Speaker 1: handle that, and it was just guards always hitting Marku's
- 5:34Speaker 1: bell and all that. But you're right that that is
- 5:37Speaker 1: something to think about, and and not even not all
- 5:40Speaker 1: the time, because they're still gonna get worn down. But
- 5:43Speaker 1: I think a speed element there, even Donovan Wilson closer
- 5:46Speaker 1: to the line of scrimmage, I think, I think that's
- 5:48Speaker 1: a very good option here. And then when you're in
- 5:50Speaker 1: the middle of the season and you're trying to tweak
- 5:52Speaker 1: things and how can we play to the personnel that
- 5:55Speaker 1: we have, that's that's I think it might be better suited.
- 5:59Speaker 1: I think it's a really good, good question. I know,
- 6:02Speaker 1: just like with anything with any mismatch, whether it be football, basketball, whatever,
- 6:07Speaker 1: any mismatch, it goes both ways, you know what I mean.
- 6:10Speaker 1: It's great down here and then be careful down here.
- 6:13Speaker 1: So you know, you want to put smaller linebackers, you know,
- 6:16Speaker 1: smaller like safeties to play linebacker. Sure they'll get to
- 6:21Speaker 1: the ball, but if the if the guards and tackles
- 6:23Speaker 1: get to them, different story. But I like it, and
- 6:27Speaker 1: I like it mixing it in at times because I
- 6:29Speaker 1: think you're right. I think the defensive tackles are playing
- 6:31Speaker 1: better than they have than we've seen. I mean, think
- 6:34Speaker 1: about your third tackle, Solomon Thomas. He's playing his ass
- 6:37Speaker 1: off right now, Solomon Thomas. I think the Cowboys have
- 6:40Speaker 1: done a nice job so far in what you've seen
- 6:43Speaker 1: from the offseason moves. I mean, Pickens has been great
- 6:47Speaker 1: and needed because of CD's injury too. Sanborn Murray not
- 6:53Speaker 1: so much so that we've seen there at linebacker. I
- 6:56Speaker 1: think Solomon Thomas move has been really really good one.
- 6:59Speaker 1: All right, Brian and Kansas Cities next, Brian? Are you there? Hello?
- 7:08Speaker 7: Hey, good morning, sir.
- 7:09Speaker 1: How are you.
- 7:11Speaker 8: I didn't hear the lead up, man, I'm sorry. Hey,
- 7:15Speaker 8: so hey, you know that was a really good question
- 7:18Speaker 8: about that. That is, you know now that we have
- 7:21Speaker 8: a high quality one tech and you know the thing
- 7:25Speaker 8: that he was good at was was playing the past.
- 7:29Speaker 8: That really was a good question. Hey, I was listening
- 7:32Speaker 8: to I don't remember what day it was, was it
- 7:34Speaker 8: Michael and Bowling. Green then asked the question about flu
- 7:38Speaker 8: saying his theory was that Flus was expecting Micah and
- 7:42Speaker 8: then you know they traded him the week before. Was
- 7:44Speaker 8: that he asked that question?
- 7:45Speaker 1: I don't remember that. I know exactly the question you're
- 7:48Speaker 1: talking about, but I can't remember, which was a great
- 7:51Speaker 1: question too.
- 7:53Speaker 8: Yeah, so you know, I did think that because I
- 7:56Speaker 8: think he goes even further than that. I think that's
- 7:58Speaker 8: why they hired Flu because in that in his system,
- 8:03Speaker 8: that's what works. Yeah, you can get pressure with a
- 8:06Speaker 8: four man front. That's system works phenomenal, right, right, right,
- 8:12Speaker 8: And I think that's I think it's a little more
- 8:15Speaker 8: than just Flues expected them. I think the Cowboys expected
- 8:19Speaker 8: that that's what they were going to have, and that's
- 8:21Speaker 8: why they even hired the guy. Hey, my pick for
- 8:24Speaker 8: this week, and any any stories you have about the
- 8:27Speaker 8: Metal Lands that you've been there a million times, you know,
- 8:30Speaker 8: any story you got about the Metal Lands or the
- 8:32Speaker 8: area or your favorite restaurant or whatever. I always love
- 8:35Speaker 8: to hear that oka my pick for this week. I
- 8:37Speaker 8: think it's going to be a rough game, all the injuries,
- 8:40Speaker 8: you know, I'm hoping we're going to pull it out.
- 8:42Speaker 8: Twenty one, I'll say twenty one seventeen. Thanks Nick, all right.
- 8:46Speaker 1: Thank you man. Hmm, I mean there, this is the
- 8:53Speaker 1: place I've been to the most. I mean, there's no
- 8:55Speaker 1: doubt about it. Maybe not, I guess I can't say
- 8:59Speaker 1: it's the stadium that I've been to the most because
- 9:02Speaker 1: they did split it and I went to the old
- 9:06Speaker 1: old Giants Stadium for a while. But you know, obviously
- 9:10Speaker 1: been here so many times with most of the Giants
- 9:13Speaker 1: and then some of the Jets. Yeah, I mean, I'm
- 9:16Speaker 1: sure there are some. I do remember one time I went.
- 9:23Speaker 1: It was it was New Year's Eve. We played on
- 9:27Speaker 1: I guess December the first, I mean January the first.
- 9:31Speaker 1: I can't remember exactly the year. I should know that,
- 9:34Speaker 1: but I but I know it was. It was New
- 9:36Speaker 1: Year's Eve on you know, the Saturday night before the game.
- 9:40Speaker 1: So we're trying to find some food and me and
- 9:43Speaker 1: a colleague from ESPN, Todd Archer, he might have been
- 9:47Speaker 1: on Dallas morn and News at the time, and we went.
- 9:49Speaker 1: He's like, there's this really good pizza place right here,
- 9:51Speaker 1: and it's some some you know, genos or I don't
- 9:55Speaker 1: even know. So I like, all right, we're going to
- 9:57Speaker 1: find and I swhere this place. I was. I was worried, man,
- 10:00Speaker 1: I was worried for my life. And I was also
- 10:04Speaker 1: it was one of those things where you knock on
- 10:05Speaker 1: the door and they just they just like opened the
- 10:07Speaker 1: little slit, They're like, can I help you? And it
- 10:09Speaker 1: was like I have a pizza, and I mean I
- 10:12Speaker 1: think there was more than pizza going on there. It
- 10:14Speaker 1: was crazy mind man, poker game like underneath it felt
- 10:16Speaker 1: like the movie Rounders. But the pizza was good. Pizza
- 10:19Speaker 1: was good. I don't know if that's a good story,
- 10:21Speaker 1: but that's what I remember. All right, Uh, what we got?
- 10:23Speaker 1: Who's next? I don't my screen froze, Chris throw it
- 10:26Speaker 1: in blind Jeremy and Salt like, all right, what's up Jeremy, Hey.
- 10:33Speaker 9: What's going on?
- 10:33Speaker 4: Nick?
- 10:33Speaker 1: How you doing?
- 10:35Speaker 9: I'm doing good. I'm doing good. How much self did.
- 10:37Speaker 1: You get on the spaces last night?
- 10:39Speaker 9: I sure did, I sure did.
- 10:41Speaker 1: Was it electric?
- 10:43Speaker 9: It was? It always is. We have a blast on
- 10:45Speaker 9: there man, you guys, I mean we work a little
- 10:48Speaker 9: blue on the space sometimes, but uh, it's it's it's
- 10:52Speaker 9: a fun time, man, It's always fun.
- 10:54Speaker 8: So you should check it out something I have.
- 10:56Speaker 1: I've checked it out. It's been it's fun. I heard
- 10:58Speaker 1: you were them. You were the one that's a little
- 11:00Speaker 1: bit feisty of the No, not not so much. Last night.
- 11:04Speaker 1: I don't know about last I didn't get any reports,
- 11:06Speaker 1: but I think overall you're the one that kind of
- 11:09Speaker 1: brings the brings the fire.
- 11:11Speaker 9: Well, I try to I you know, I just I'm
- 11:14Speaker 9: I'm passionate about my Cowboys. Man, That's just all it is.
- 11:17Speaker 3: Man.
- 11:17Speaker 9: I've loved this team since I was five years old
- 11:20Speaker 9: and now never stop loving them. And I'll never you know,
- 11:24Speaker 9: as much as some of the front office things, you
- 11:26Speaker 9: know take us off as fans and and uh upset us.
- 11:31Speaker 9: And boy, we talk about them all. At the end
- 11:33Speaker 9: of the day, man, we we all just love this
- 11:35Speaker 9: team and we and we want we won't want a
- 11:38Speaker 9: super Bowl, man, and we're passionate about it. But you know,
- 11:43Speaker 9: get into this week. You know, one of the things
- 11:46Speaker 9: we talked about, and I think you were touching on
- 11:49Speaker 9: earlier is getting some younger blood in there. And part
- 11:52Speaker 9: of the thing that we see as fans is like
- 11:55Speaker 9: some of these veteran players are, especially on defense. I mean,
- 11:59Speaker 9: if they're confus used and not in the right spot,
- 12:03Speaker 9: that's usually a knock towards like a younger player playing right.
- 12:06Speaker 9: So if it's our older players playing like that, why
- 12:09Speaker 9: not get some young bud in there and light a
- 12:11Speaker 9: fire under some of these younger, older guys too, and
- 12:13Speaker 9: it seems like for you know, to get specific, I mean,
- 12:17Speaker 9: we're all done on Sanborn. But as far as like
- 12:22Speaker 9: you know, for me, Dante Fowler always seems to play
- 12:25Speaker 9: better when he's got somebody lighting, you know, lighting a
- 12:28Speaker 9: fire under him or maybe playing above him. He seems
- 12:31Speaker 9: to do better coming off the bench, And so I
- 12:34Speaker 9: think maybe we need to put some new life into
- 12:36Speaker 9: there and maybe it'll light a fire under some of
- 12:40Speaker 9: these veterans rear ins, if you know.
- 12:42Speaker 10: What I mean.
- 12:43Speaker 9: Yeah, So, so I'm down with that. And then also,
- 12:46Speaker 9: we got to run the ball this week. Man, I'm
- 12:49Speaker 9: I'm hoping, I'm I'm wanting thirty five carries out of
- 12:51Speaker 9: our running backs. Man. I just I think that's that's
- 12:55Speaker 9: the way you get through this game, because it's gonna
- 12:56Speaker 9: be a tough one, always is, right when we play
- 12:59Speaker 9: that early game on the road back east. That's what
- 13:03Speaker 9: I just for some reason, this team always has problems
- 13:06Speaker 9: with that. And if you could talk to that dynamic,
- 13:09Speaker 9: that's what I kind of want to know your opinion on.
- 13:11Speaker 1: All right, Thanks, man, appreciate the call. Good stuff. Uh,
- 13:15Speaker 1: Dante Fowler is the backup? Yeah, I mean if you
- 13:19Speaker 1: had someone that that that can play on every down
- 13:23Speaker 1: and play it better. I think Sam Williams is kind
- 13:26Speaker 1: of better in that role as a rock who as
- 13:28Speaker 1: a rookie, he might be better, uh in that role.
- 13:32Speaker 1: I mean, that's it's kind of the problem. You know,
- 13:34Speaker 1: this seems like a basketball team that you got a
- 13:36Speaker 1: lot of guys that are good coming off the bench,
- 13:38Speaker 1: but someone needs to start, you know, someone needs to
- 13:41Speaker 1: get it, get it going here. You need you need
- 13:45Speaker 1: those lead dogs. And that's that's the one thing that
- 13:48Speaker 1: that is missing from this team more than any other,
- 13:51Speaker 1: is just that pre snap, Justin Fields goes to the line,
- 13:57Speaker 1: it gets under center and he's looking for Micah or
- 14:02Speaker 1: he's looking for who are you looking at? Who are
- 14:04Speaker 1: you saying? Where is so and so? And I don't
- 14:08Speaker 1: know if they don't have that guy, I know it's
- 14:09Speaker 1: not an I don't know they don't have that guy.
- 14:12Speaker 1: I don't think they have it at corner. I don't
- 14:14Speaker 1: think they have anyone that you're like, where where's Diggs?
- 14:16Speaker 1: You know, and there was a time he was playing
- 14:18Speaker 1: that way and Bland too, But even Bland's great year,
- 14:21Speaker 1: even Diggs is great year. The reason why you get
- 14:24Speaker 1: ten or eleven nine interceptions because they keep throwing at you.
- 14:28Speaker 1: So I mean Dion when he got here yet two.
- 14:31Speaker 1: I mean he might have had five one year, but
- 14:33Speaker 1: I mean they were scared of him. He didn't get
- 14:35Speaker 1: the ball much. So that that's the problem. Nobody scares
- 14:38Speaker 1: you on defense. On offense they do, they got a
- 14:42Speaker 1: few of them, but on defense they don't. And I
- 14:44Speaker 1: think that's the biggest problem here as far as the
- 14:47Speaker 1: giant early season games. And I don't know if there's
- 14:51Speaker 1: a trend to all that. I just think sometimes when
- 14:54Speaker 1: you're you know, like the Cowboys played the Jets a
- 14:57Speaker 1: few years ago, and you know that they were winless
- 15:00Speaker 1: and the Cowboys, who I think we had a nice record,
- 15:02Speaker 1: but they finished they think they finished with like, you know,
- 15:05Speaker 1: nine and seven. I think it was the last year
- 15:08Speaker 1: of the sixteen game schedule and they finished nine and seven.
- 15:11Speaker 1: That was Garrett's last game last season with the team.
- 15:15Speaker 1: But but you know, it's one of those where it's
- 15:17Speaker 1: still relatively early, so you think you know who's good
- 15:20Speaker 1: and who isn't good and all that kind of stuff,
- 15:22Speaker 1: but really we don't yet. I mean, the Jets are
- 15:25Speaker 1: zero and four, but I still think that they're they're
- 15:28Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna be there, They're gonna win some games.
- 15:30Speaker 1: I think their coach is good and and I think
- 15:32Speaker 1: they've got enough play you know, playmakers. So this is
- 15:35Speaker 1: a scary game, you know, scary game, especially with all
- 15:37Speaker 1: the injuries the Cowboys have. If they don't go and
- 15:39Speaker 1: match the intensity. That's what Dak said yesterday. If you
- 15:41Speaker 1: don't go and match their their intensity, then then it's
- 15:44Speaker 1: gonna be a long day. So, uh, thirty five carries
- 15:47Speaker 1: would be a great day for the Cowboys because that
- 15:49Speaker 1: means you're winning and you're running the ball and you
- 15:51Speaker 1: keep running and you're having success doing it. Yeah, thirty
- 15:54Speaker 1: five carries would be outstanding. Esteban and Austin is next. Esteban, Hey, buddy,
- 15:59Speaker 1: how you doing good? How are you?
- 16:00Speaker 3: I'm doing well? Hey.
- 16:02Speaker 1: I went back.
- 16:03Speaker 3: I know it's Friday and all, but I went back
- 16:05Speaker 3: and watched the Packers game and on that Tolbert toe
- 16:10Speaker 3: tap like after he caught the ball, I said, we're
- 16:13Speaker 3: going to win this game, right sure? And I had
- 16:17Speaker 3: two problems with everything that took place after that, one
- 16:21Speaker 3: of which was they took a time out. I don't
- 16:25Speaker 3: know if something happened with an injury or somebody got hurt.
- 16:29Speaker 3: But I was thinking, why would you take a time
- 16:32Speaker 3: out when you kind of got them surprised.
- 16:36Speaker 1: I don't time out, but I mean, I'm not saying
- 16:38Speaker 1: you're you're wrong. I just don't remember why they took it.
- 16:41Speaker 3: Right, And I'm thinking, here, you you just you got
- 16:45Speaker 3: him off guard. You don't give the defense a chance
- 16:48Speaker 3: to settle in that moment.
- 16:49Speaker 9: You just he tak.
- 16:51Speaker 3: But the other issue I had was I said, you know,
- 16:55Speaker 3: in that moment, I said, you you run it four
- 16:57Speaker 3: straight times, you run it down their throat and you
- 17:00Speaker 3: you win the game. You you they can't stop the run.
- 17:04Speaker 3: And after the first run that didn't go anywhere, I
- 17:09Speaker 3: was still compident. I said, just keep running it. You're
- 17:11Speaker 3: going to get in. There's no ends. Two plays later,
- 17:15Speaker 3: Micah takes out Dak and then it's a you kick
- 17:19Speaker 3: the field goal and lose a game, but get the time.
- 17:22Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, obviously I can tell how you feel about it,
- 17:25Speaker 1: about you know, whether it feels like a last and
- 17:28Speaker 1: you're right, I mean, it was. It was a moment there.
- 17:30Speaker 1: I've said it all week long. I hated the play
- 17:33Speaker 1: calls down there just for the same reason I'm I'm
- 17:37Speaker 1: you know, I'm running running the ball more I'm running
- 17:40Speaker 1: the clock. It's a it's a unique situation. I mean,
- 17:44Speaker 1: it's just as great as these these guys are. And
- 17:47Speaker 1: they've been around the league forever and coaches and all
- 17:50Speaker 1: that they haven't experienced that either, not not often, not
- 17:55Speaker 1: where you're playing two sides of this, where there's there's
- 17:59Speaker 1: a tie element, there's the clock running down. I mean,
- 18:04Speaker 1: you know, I saw it last last night too, watching
- 18:06Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers Rams game, and you know, and
- 18:11Speaker 1: I had a conversation with Steven Jones, and I asked Steven,
- 18:14Speaker 1: because I got asked a couple of times this week too,
- 18:17Speaker 1: what happens if the first team with the ball just
- 18:21Speaker 1: takes all ten minutes, and it can happen because the
- 18:23Speaker 1: Bears did it to the Cowboys this year. Takes all
- 18:26Speaker 1: of the time, and for whatever the reason, just keeps
- 18:30Speaker 1: getting third down, fourth downs, leads the entire clock, kicks
- 18:34Speaker 1: a field goal with two seconds and the game's over
- 18:37Speaker 1: because they keep saying everybody gets a possession, but that's
- 18:40Speaker 1: not true if you take all ten minutes. So anyways,
- 18:43Speaker 1: that's just an interesting element but he was saying, how
- 18:47Speaker 1: when you get to the playoffs maybe and with the
- 18:50Speaker 1: strategies and all that it it's different in the playoffs actually,
- 18:55Speaker 1: because the playoffs the time doesn't really matter because if
- 18:58Speaker 1: you're tied at the end of it, then you'll just
- 19:00Speaker 1: keep playing. But in a regular season, maybe you don't
- 19:04Speaker 1: take the ball second. You know, maybe there is there
- 19:07Speaker 1: is something to say, I'll take the ball first, we'll
- 19:11Speaker 1: drive down and we'll score, because if you score a
- 19:14Speaker 1: touchdown then you might be able to get that ball
- 19:17Speaker 1: the third time. That's what you want, is if they
- 19:20Speaker 1: go and score, at least you have a little bit
- 19:21Speaker 1: of time. So there's there's different ways to think about
- 19:24Speaker 1: it too. You know, if you drive the ball at
- 19:26Speaker 1: the end of regulation and you have a long drive
- 19:28Speaker 1: and the defense out there and you go and score
- 19:30Speaker 1: and tie the game, and then you get the ball
- 19:32Speaker 1: and you might want to go back out there again,
- 19:34Speaker 1: knowing that their defense is tired and and you have
- 19:37Speaker 1: a chance that you know you're you're real and so
- 19:39Speaker 1: a lot of different ways to play it, all right,
- 19:41Speaker 1: Mike and Birmingham, England is next.
- 19:43Speaker 11: Hello, Nick, how are you doing good?
- 19:45Speaker 1: How are you?
- 19:46Speaker 11: I'm really good thank you. It's fun to hear you're
- 19:49Speaker 11: not still talking about ties and no see writing a
- 19:52Speaker 11: whole piece about it. You really don't like it, do you?
- 19:56Speaker 1: No? No, I mean we're a result or intoed business.
- 20:00Speaker 1: I mean you just doing all these things you want
- 20:03Speaker 1: to you want to have something, I mean, you know,
- 20:05Speaker 1: and then inn't like just watching a movie for two
- 20:08Speaker 1: hours and at the end it says to be continued.
- 20:10Speaker 1: You're like, oh, there's no there's no finish.
- 20:14Speaker 11: Yeah, but then you watch the next one, you know,
- 20:18Speaker 11: I mean, would would you rather better?
- 20:20Speaker 1: That's actually better than than two teams playing I don't
- 20:24Speaker 1: even know. I'm you know, Swansea versus Norwich City and
- 20:29Speaker 1: you just sit out there and you got your tickets
- 20:31Speaker 1: and you have your face painted, and you're there for
- 20:33Speaker 1: two and a half three hours, all the chance, all
- 20:35Speaker 1: the stuff that y'all do, which is awesome, and then
- 20:37Speaker 1: it's a zero zero tie or is it nil? I
- 20:40Speaker 1: don't know. That's terrible.
- 20:43Speaker 11: That could be the one point that gets you into
- 20:45Speaker 11: the playoffs at the end of the year.
- 20:47Speaker 12: You know.
- 20:48Speaker 11: Anyway, I'm not going to win you over on that,
- 20:50Speaker 11: am I No?
- 20:52Speaker 7: Move on?
- 20:53Speaker 11: A lot of people talking about that rightly, So he's
- 20:57Speaker 11: he's doing a hell of a job. How much that
- 21:00Speaker 11: obviously a lot of that is down to Dak and
- 21:02Speaker 11: the hard work he puts in. How much do you
- 21:05Speaker 11: put it down to Javonte Williams as well? Because for
- 21:08Speaker 11: me the most pleasant surprise this year. I think the
- 21:13Speaker 11: guy is fantastic and I think I'm right in saying
- 21:15Speaker 11: he's on a one year deal and if though we
- 21:17Speaker 11: need to we need to get in signed. How much
- 21:21Speaker 11: would you put down to the fact that we've got
- 21:23Speaker 11: a viable running game now?
- 21:25Speaker 1: Well, I think that's huge. That's the reason why he's
- 21:28Speaker 1: playing at the highest level. Thanks for the call, Mike,
- 21:33Speaker 1: for sure. You know, when you think about the best
- 21:37Speaker 1: year that Romo had, you know, Romo's best season where
- 21:42Speaker 1: I think he would finish third in the AP in
- 21:44Speaker 1: the MVP voting I believe was twenty fourteen. Well, what
- 21:48Speaker 1: else happened in twenty fourteen? DeMarco Murray was Offensive Player
- 21:51Speaker 1: of the Year. He had eighteen hundred rushing yards and
- 21:53Speaker 1: Cowboys single season record. So you know that could be
- 21:58Speaker 1: your best friend. And that's what I think is happening here.
- 22:01Speaker 1: It's they go hand in hand. There's not a coincidence
- 22:04Speaker 1: that they're running the ball the way they are, and
- 22:07Speaker 1: then it's it's leading to Dak's having a great success.
- 22:11Speaker 1: What they want to do is play action. That's what
- 22:13Speaker 1: they do. That's what Dak does well, that's what this
- 22:15Speaker 1: offense is built around. And you can't run play action
- 22:18Speaker 1: if no one's scared of you're running. And when you
- 22:21Speaker 1: think about how they're running the ball, you know, Davonte
- 22:24Speaker 1: Williams is averaging it says he's averaging five point zero.
- 22:28Speaker 1: Because they got burned on this because I was talking
- 22:30Speaker 1: to our PR staff, I was like, how many back
- 22:33Speaker 1: how many teams have two running backs that have that
- 22:36Speaker 1: are averaging over five yards of carry and you got
- 22:40Speaker 1: to have at least twenty carries. Miles Sanders has twenty carries.
- 22:43Speaker 1: He's averaging five point nine. Davonte Williams has sixty three carries.
- 22:47Speaker 1: He's averaging says five point oh, when actually, when you
- 22:50Speaker 1: do the math, it's four point nine eight or something
- 22:54Speaker 1: like that. I'm like, seriously, it's a great stat and
- 22:57Speaker 1: actually he has one carry for six yards. So off
- 23:02Speaker 1: the three guys that are considered running backs here, Javonte Williams,
- 23:06Speaker 1: Miles Sanders Hunter Lipkey. They are averaging and that's about
- 23:09Speaker 1: eighty four carries. They are averaging over five yards of
- 23:14Speaker 1: carry every one of them, and that's impressive. And I
- 23:16Speaker 1: think that's what's leading to what Dak is doing. And
- 23:20Speaker 1: not taking anything away from Dak. He's playing great, but
- 23:22Speaker 1: he's getting the help that he needs here, that all
- 23:24Speaker 1: quarterbacks need, and it really is showing. All right, we'll
- 23:27Speaker 1: go to break care on Cowboys storyline. I'll be right back.

- 26:01Speaker 1: What's going on?
- 26:02Speaker 16: I'm on a night shift right now, so this is
- 26:05Speaker 16: like the middle of my day. It's kind of like
- 26:06Speaker 16: noon on my day. I thought i'd give a call.
- 26:09Speaker 1: All right, Well, this is I'm so glad you Did
- 26:11Speaker 1: you stationed over there? I assume?
- 26:13Speaker 11: Or no?
- 26:15Speaker 16: Actually, it's just it's different work, production work, and I'm
- 26:17Speaker 16: over here at three months at a time.
- 26:19Speaker 1: Okay, all right? Where where are you from from the States, though.
- 26:23Speaker 16: I'm originally from Washington State?
- 26:25Speaker 1: Okay, it's cool. All right, So thanks for the call.
- 26:30Speaker 1: I love we love having first time callers. And also,
- 26:33Speaker 1: how do you get to watch the games?
- 26:35Speaker 9: Is it?
- 26:36Speaker 1: Is it hard over there? Is it to watch it
- 26:37Speaker 1: or what?
- 26:38Speaker 5: Oh?
- 26:39Speaker 12: Yeah, it's a whole thing.
- 26:40Speaker 16: Every time the game, it's a panic up until it.
- 26:42Speaker 16: I'm running VPNs, I'm running trying to find different sites.
- 26:45Speaker 16: But I usually get it done. There's sometimes like this
- 26:49Speaker 16: last one was a little difficult to stay up and watch,
- 26:51Speaker 16: but man, was it worth it. I mean not really
- 26:53Speaker 16: for the tie. It was kind of rough, but yeah,
- 26:55Speaker 16: but it still was fun to watch.
- 26:57Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Well, so this week could be tough.
- 27:01Speaker 1: I mean it's a noon game for us. I don't
- 27:04Speaker 1: even know. I guess that would be. That's like it's
- 27:06Speaker 1: going to be two in the morning or something for you.
- 27:10Speaker 12: Yep, right in the middle of my day. It'll be
- 27:11Speaker 12: all right.
- 27:12Speaker 16: I can at least listen.
- 27:13Speaker 1: What are you seeing from this team?
- 27:16Speaker 16: So I'm a little bit of a younger Cowboys fan.
- 27:19Speaker 16: I'm thirty one, but it's so evident from me watching
- 27:23Speaker 16: on the TV and everything that Dak is the leader
- 27:26Speaker 16: of the offense and trying to be for the whole team.
- 27:29Speaker 16: I honestly think with the defense, we're just seeing a
- 27:32Speaker 16: lot of there's a lack of leadership from the player aspect,
- 27:36Speaker 16: but that will come. I think throughout the season someone
- 27:39Speaker 16: will emerge and it will get better. I know it's
- 27:41Speaker 16: frustrating sometimes, but like I said, I'm thirty, I haven't
- 27:45Speaker 16: got to see any Super Bowls. So I just enjoy
- 27:48Speaker 16: the ride throughout the season, and I think it will happen.
- 27:51Speaker 16: I think these guys will start working together and start
- 27:54Speaker 16: communicating better. It's just hard right at the beginning, especially
- 27:57Speaker 16: with injuries and training camp and everything, but I think
- 28:00Speaker 16: we'll be all right.
- 28:01Speaker 1: All right, all right, well you got a question or anything.
- 28:06Speaker 9: Not really.
- 28:06Speaker 16: I just really was excited to be able to call
- 28:08Speaker 16: and have the time too. And I enjoy the show.
- 28:10Speaker 16: I listen every day, and thank you Nick for all
- 28:13Speaker 16: you do.
- 28:13Speaker 1: Sure well, thank you, Steve. Appreciate the call and the commitment.
- 28:18Speaker 1: And I say it, I'll say it every time, and
- 28:21Speaker 1: I'll definitely say it here. We got our first first
- 28:23Speaker 1: time caller for you and from South Korea, and thanks
- 28:27Speaker 1: so much. But you know, it's just the commitment, the
- 28:29Speaker 1: commitment that I think is amazing. You guys. I mean,
- 28:34Speaker 1: it's twelve thirty on a Saturday morning for you know,
- 28:38Speaker 1: I know it's your work shift, but still, I mean,
- 28:40Speaker 1: you're supposed to be a work you know. We appreciate
- 28:42Speaker 1: that commitment there. And you know, now I'm like writing
- 28:45Speaker 1: down times. I think Jeremy called probably nine thirty in
- 28:49Speaker 1: the morning, and Mike is four thirty in the afternoon,
- 28:52Speaker 1: and maybe maybe Michael and Bowling Green, Kentucky that might
- 28:55Speaker 1: be eleven thirty. I'm not sure on the Eastern time,
- 28:58Speaker 1: but you know, it's still it's still pretty awesome. All right. Now,
- 29:01Speaker 1: this is a different time. This is what nine to
- 29:03Speaker 1: thirty for Las Vegas. Rob, Hey, Nick, how are you.
- 29:07Speaker 12: Doing a thirty eight thirty here? Oh?
- 29:10Speaker 1: Okay, Pacific over there in Vegas. Didn't know that.
- 29:12Speaker 7: Yeah, the best best time to watch sports, I mean
- 29:16Speaker 7: your first football game starts at ten am. Yeah, and
- 29:20Speaker 7: and oh yeah, you know the sun and night games
- 29:22Speaker 7: already thirty. So it's way better than when I lived
- 29:26Speaker 7: on the East Coast. Yeah, you know you're talking about coaching,
- 29:30Speaker 7: you know. Perfect example is that game last night McVeigh
- 29:34Speaker 7: that was like the worst play call I've ever seen
- 29:36Speaker 7: on fourth and one, right, has the best they.
- 29:39Speaker 1: Had plenty of time for it. I mean they tried
- 29:41Speaker 1: to offside. I mean they tried to draw.
- 29:43Speaker 7: I was like, I'm watching the game and obviously I'm
- 29:45Speaker 7: rooting against the forty nine ers and we're sitting man,
- 29:48Speaker 7: I'm like, that's the best you came up with. That
- 29:52Speaker 7: was that was just awful. So they all they all
- 29:54Speaker 7: kind of panic. I don't know what the deal is,
- 29:57Speaker 7: but to me, this is a big shoddy game. We're
- 29:59Speaker 7: going to see what kind of the coach is. And
- 30:01Speaker 7: what I mean by that is the two best games
- 30:04Speaker 7: they played. You didn't need any motivation. Let's be honest.
- 30:07Speaker 7: The first game is against your rival, it's the first
- 30:09Speaker 7: game of the season. If you ain't jacked up for
- 30:12Speaker 7: that one, I don't know.
- 30:14Speaker 10: What to tell you.
- 30:15Speaker 7: And then the revenge game with Micah. I mean, you
- 30:18Speaker 7: knew that was going to be. You know, they played
- 30:22Speaker 7: above and beyond we thought they would, and that worries
- 30:25Speaker 7: me because the Giants they kind of sleep walk, but
- 30:30Speaker 7: they always find a way to beat the Giants. And
- 30:32Speaker 7: then obviously Chicago they correct. So it's like now they're
- 30:37Speaker 7: beat up physically, they're beat up mentally, they've probably drained,
- 30:41Speaker 7: you know, you played an overtime game. I don't know
- 30:44Speaker 7: what the stats are of teams. The following week, Jeremy said,
- 30:49Speaker 7: they got to go back to the East Coast, and
- 30:52Speaker 7: I know they do when they play the Giants, but
- 30:54Speaker 7: they think that's affected. Yeah, you know, And you're right.
- 30:59Speaker 7: The jetsaw, I haven't won a game yet, but they
- 31:04Speaker 7: don't suck.
- 31:06Speaker 12: You know.
- 31:06Speaker 7: It's not like you watch some of these teams they're like,
- 31:08Speaker 7: oh my god, these guys are bad. They don't suck,
- 31:11Speaker 7: and I'm just worried.
- 31:15Speaker 10: It is.
- 31:16Speaker 12: You know.
- 31:16Speaker 7: It kind of reminds me of Chago game. When I
- 31:18Speaker 7: heard about Tyler Smith, I said, if he don't play,
- 31:21Speaker 7: I don't see us winning. Yeah, so with him playing,
- 31:24Speaker 7: I do like our chances better. And I heard something,
- 31:28Speaker 7: and I don't know if it's true, but Justin Fields
- 31:31Speaker 7: has never won a game that the defense has given
- 31:34Speaker 7: up twenty one points. More So, we have to we
- 31:40Speaker 7: have to score. This is a DAK game, you know,
- 31:43Speaker 7: it's a quarterbacks League.
- 31:45Speaker 15: DAK.
- 31:45Speaker 7: I feel is playing top five and Justin Fields is
- 31:50Speaker 7: nowhere close. But then again, you looked at the game
- 31:55Speaker 7: yesterday and Matt Jones looked like a top five quarterback.
- 31:59Speaker 7: I mean it was it was just crazy, how good
- 32:01Speaker 7: that guy look. But that's play calling. So I think
- 32:05Speaker 7: they pull it out. I like to say thirty twenty
- 32:10Speaker 7: something like that.
- 32:12Speaker 4: You know.
- 32:12Speaker 7: But that's my sec that's my fandom. But I have
- 32:16Speaker 7: a feeling it's going to be it's going to be
- 32:19Speaker 7: one of those tighter games that we expect, and it's
- 32:23Speaker 7: just going to it may be ugly at times, who knows,
- 32:26Speaker 7: but this is a must win. These games are must
- 32:28Speaker 7: win now. I said it before. If you could make
- 32:31Speaker 7: a run and stay in it, then maybe we make moves.
- 32:34Speaker 7: But if we can't win these games, yeah, then you
- 32:37Speaker 7: know the season is over.
- 32:40Speaker 1: Yeah all right, Rob, I appreciate it. I mean I
- 32:42Speaker 1: agree with you, but must win. I agree that. I mean,
- 32:47Speaker 1: is it possible to make the playoffs? Of course, I mean, yeah,
- 32:51Speaker 1: anything's possible. But I think we all know. You don't
- 32:54Speaker 1: beat the Jets, we don't win this game, you're not
- 32:58Speaker 1: going to be a playoff team. I mean you just
- 33:01Speaker 1: probably not. I mean it's it's not in the cards. Now.
- 33:05Speaker 1: You know. If you don't win this game, I mean
- 33:08Speaker 1: you'll you'll last Jerry Steven, Shotty, They'll they'll all point
- 33:11Speaker 1: to the fact that you know, we're gonna keep our
- 33:14Speaker 1: you know, we're gonna keep our heads up, We're gonna
- 33:15Speaker 1: get guys coming back from injury and all that, which
- 33:18Speaker 1: is which is true. I mean, that'll probably be a
- 33:21Speaker 1: big factor here. I think we'd feel better about this
- 33:23Speaker 1: game if the offensive line was intact, if CD was playing,
- 33:27Speaker 1: if Turpin was playing, you'd feel better about a lot
- 33:30Speaker 1: of things. But you know, Hooker is not gonna I
- 33:34Speaker 1: don't think he's gonna play either. So yeah, I mean,
- 33:36Speaker 1: they they're they're gonna have no problem putting out the
- 33:39Speaker 1: inactives for the for this game because they're all gonna
- 33:42Speaker 1: be guys on the roster. So it's it's a it's
- 33:45Speaker 1: a must win, I mean, for for me, I mean,
- 33:48Speaker 1: you've got to go, you know, go out and win
- 33:50Speaker 1: this game and and and show that that you can
- 33:53Speaker 1: get on a run. I mean, you know, the combined
- 33:55Speaker 1: records of these two teams are one six and one.
- 33:58Speaker 1: I mean, that's funny just just when you think of
- 34:03Speaker 1: it like that. I mean, I think it's going to
- 34:04Speaker 1: be a competitive game, a competitive game. Sergeant went for
- 34:08Speaker 1: Worth is next?
- 34:09Speaker 9: Eddie's everybody?
- 34:10Speaker 17: What's going on?
- 34:11Speaker 5: Nick?
- 34:12Speaker 17: Great brother.
- 34:12Speaker 12: Great.
- 34:13Speaker 9: Hey.
- 34:13Speaker 17: So Tuesday I called in and I just had to
- 34:15Speaker 17: you know, speak as fast as I could. I didn't
- 34:18Speaker 17: really get to talk about the game. I do want
- 34:20Speaker 17: to just point out some quickly that, like like other
- 34:22Speaker 17: people I pointed out, I like that everybody got involved.
- 34:24Speaker 17: A lot of people got involved. Helbert, A lot of
- 34:26Speaker 17: people have been hard on him, but you know, when
- 34:28Speaker 17: it was his, when his number was called, he stepped up.
- 34:31Speaker 17: He did what he needed to do on that though.
- 34:33Speaker 17: You know, I thought Fillinoyd did a good job as well.
- 34:35Speaker 17: He's somebody that a lot of people have been interested in,
- 34:37Speaker 17: including myself. So this is a this is a week
- 34:40Speaker 17: where both of them could get a lot of looks
- 34:42Speaker 17: and get a lot of opportunities. So for everybody who
- 34:44Speaker 17: was kind of wondering about that little position battle, like
- 34:47Speaker 17: I know, that's kind of like a story within the story,
- 34:49Speaker 17: but that's gonna be interesting this week. As far as
- 34:53Speaker 17: this week goes, I do feel like I'm hoping that
- 34:55Speaker 17: Dallas leans on the run a lot. You know, this
- 34:57Speaker 17: team is not very good at stopping the run, so
- 34:59Speaker 17: I'm hoping that leans on the run a lot. Javonte
- 35:02Speaker 17: has been great. I hope they keep feeding him so
- 35:05Speaker 17: Dak doesn't have to be as great as he's been.
- 35:07Speaker 17: Like it's great that he's getting all the accolades and
- 35:09Speaker 17: everybody's you know, raising him right now, but you know
- 35:12Speaker 17: that's just setting him up because the one game that
- 35:14Speaker 17: he's not that is when everybody starts to come down
- 35:17Speaker 17: on him and everybody says that he's this and he's that.
- 35:18Speaker 8: Let's save that.
- 35:20Speaker 17: If he's got the magic juice, I'd rather save that
- 35:22Speaker 17: magic juice for later on down in the in the season.
- 35:24Speaker 17: I'm hoping that he doesn't have to be hero Ball
- 35:27Speaker 17: every single week. I do think that this week is
- 35:29Speaker 17: going to be tough. Defense hasn't really shown that they
- 35:33Speaker 17: can stop anybody. I do think this is one of
- 35:35Speaker 17: those weeks where there's gonna be a lot of those
- 35:37Speaker 17: frustrating third down conversions where it's like third and nine
- 35:40Speaker 17: and Field somehow runs and picks up the ball a
- 35:43Speaker 17: lot like that first half against the Eagles, and until
- 35:46Speaker 17: the defense can really show that they're fixing the communication
- 35:50Speaker 17: issues or maybe they're making little scheme changes or whatever
- 35:52Speaker 17: the case may be, I still think that they're gonna
- 35:55Speaker 17: put up a bunch of points against Dallas, but I
- 35:57Speaker 17: am never ever going to pick against the Cowboys, at
- 35:59Speaker 17: least on air. So I'm gonna say it's gonna be
- 36:01Speaker 17: forty one thirty eight, Dallas Cowboys.
- 36:03Speaker 1: Thanks for taking my calls, all right, thank you. Forty
- 36:05Speaker 1: one thirty eight. By the way, I'm you know, these
- 36:09Speaker 1: scorts that come in and I always always try to
- 36:13Speaker 1: think of a Cowboy game just through off the top
- 36:15Speaker 1: of my head, and uh, I know forty one thirty
- 36:18Speaker 1: eight is one. But when Rob said thirty to twenty,
- 36:20Speaker 1: I mean that that's an easy one because that's the
- 36:22Speaker 1: NFC championship game in nineteen ninety two Cowboys forty nine
- 36:26Speaker 1: or so. That's that's, you know, probably my favorite game
- 36:28Speaker 1: of all time. So that was easy. But yeah, some
- 36:31Speaker 1: of these other ones, uh, not so easy. But uh,
- 36:35Speaker 1: I don't know if I see it that high scoring,
- 36:37Speaker 1: uh forty one thirty eight, I mean, I see it
- 36:39Speaker 1: being close. But yeah, I understand the Cowboys defenses has
- 36:44Speaker 1: not been good at all, and they've they've let Russell
- 36:48Speaker 1: Wilson go crazy and Caleb Williams go crazy and all that,
- 36:53Speaker 1: but I I still feel like that, you know, I
- 36:58Speaker 1: think Diggs is going to play I think you'll start
- 37:01Speaker 1: digs and Bland and Elam. Now, this will be the
- 37:07Speaker 1: second week in a row that it's been a while
- 37:09Speaker 1: since they've played together two games in a row, so
- 37:15Speaker 1: I have a feeling that they'll play better. Yes, Garrett
- 37:18Speaker 1: Wilson's a really, really good player. I think that they'll
- 37:21Speaker 1: figure it out. I think this is gonna be the
- 37:23Speaker 1: best game that the defense has played to this point.
- 37:26Speaker 1: That's not saying a lot. You know, they're averaging three
- 37:28Speaker 1: hundred yards a game against them, so I think it's
- 37:33Speaker 1: a low bar right now. But I think that they'll
- 37:35Speaker 1: be better than that. But we'll see. All right, let's
- 37:37Speaker 1: go to break on Cowboys storyline. We'll be right back.

- 39:12Speaker 1: presented by Jillette got about ten more minutes of this show. Jr.
- 39:16Speaker 1: Navindale Arizona Jr.
- 39:20Speaker 12: More than neck House. Everything in Dallas.
- 39:22Speaker 1: Consistency got a streak going, right.
- 39:25Speaker 12: Yeah, I think I'm six days in a row. So
- 39:28Speaker 12: yesterday I got in on two calls. Today it took
- 39:30Speaker 12: me one hundred and ninety eight, but got in.
- 39:32Speaker 1: But wait on, hold on, that's two hundred calls. Yeah.
- 39:39Speaker 1: I did the math on that one. Two hundred calls
- 39:41Speaker 1: between the two. That's a good average, right.
- 39:44Speaker 12: I guess I like the two calls way better than
- 39:47Speaker 12: I liked that ninety eight calls.
- 39:49Speaker 1: I understand, and I appreciate both of them. I appreciate
- 39:54Speaker 1: the two because that means you're timing it perfectly. I
- 39:57Speaker 1: appreciate the one ninety eight because you're just damn committed.
- 40:00Speaker 12: Well. For a long time, I thought there was truly
- 40:02Speaker 12: a bat phone number because people got in every day
- 40:05Speaker 12: and I could never get in. But I guess it's
- 40:08Speaker 12: just keep dyling. But anyway, back to football, So I
- 40:12Speaker 12: think it's a crazy year. I think now that this
- 40:15Speaker 12: is what we're going to see in the NFL is
- 40:17Speaker 12: the month of September is just weird things happen, and
- 40:21Speaker 12: I think it's everything's going to kind of settle in
- 40:23Speaker 12: the way it's going to be in the month of October.
- 40:25Speaker 12: That's why in the next three games for the Cowboys
- 40:28Speaker 12: are critical. Got to win these next three games. I mean,
- 40:32Speaker 12: the Packers lose to the Browns, the Chargers lose to
- 40:35Speaker 12: the Giants, and the Ravens. I thought they were going
- 40:38Speaker 12: to be a super Bowl team and they're just not there.
- 40:41Speaker 12: And I just think that anything can happen. Really, the
- 40:45Speaker 12: Eagles a few plays and they have three losses or
- 40:48Speaker 12: two losses, sure.
- 40:49Speaker 1: Right, yeah, give them one, give them credit one.
- 40:52Speaker 12: Yeah, they're one hit away. Yeah, I got you. But
- 40:56Speaker 12: they're one hit away from Tanner McGee being the quarterback.
- 40:59Speaker 12: But anyway, I think the Cowboys are going to win
- 41:03Speaker 12: this game. I think, and I don't know why. I
- 41:06Speaker 12: think that. The thirty eight to seventeen is just stuck
- 41:10Speaker 12: in my head. And last thing, I know, everybody appreciates
- 41:14Speaker 12: Brandon Aubrey and how consistent he is and just how
- 41:17Speaker 12: good he is. But Watson the Rams. The Rams have
- 41:20Speaker 12: lost two games in a row because of the chicker
- 41:24Speaker 12: and they lost to the Eagles, and they should not
- 41:28Speaker 12: have been tied last night. If they can make extra
- 41:30Speaker 12: points and field goals so anyway, that's all I got. Hey, man,
- 41:34Speaker 12: have a great weekend and go Cowboys.
- 41:37Speaker 1: All right, thanks appreciate that, Jr. You know, I think
- 41:42Speaker 1: I agree with most of what you're saying about how
- 41:44Speaker 1: first month of the season the East, weird stuff happens.
- 41:48Speaker 1: You know, I think weird stuff happens throughout the year,
- 41:53Speaker 1: and I think it's just that's just the nature of
- 41:55Speaker 1: the league where you know, everybody on any given Sunday
- 41:59Speaker 1: can can win, or Monday or Thursday, year well, Friday
- 42:01Speaker 1: or whatever. They play games every every night pretty much.
- 42:06Speaker 1: But I just you know, I think you're just not
- 42:08Speaker 1: as surprised as much. But still it's the element is
- 42:12Speaker 1: still there. We're in on any any week, you can't
- 42:15Speaker 1: see someone kind of sneak up on you. You're just not
- 42:18Speaker 1: as surprised as much because you kind of know now,
- 42:21Speaker 1: you know, if anybody beats the Ravens, you're you're gonna
- 42:23Speaker 1: be like, oh, you know, you're not gonna be surprised
- 42:25Speaker 1: as much now because we've kind of seen it happen.
- 42:29Speaker 1: The Eagles, you know they're gonna lose here. I mean
- 42:32Speaker 1: at some point, I mean they're they're they are winning
- 42:34Speaker 1: games and and this is a sign of a really
- 42:37Speaker 1: good football team. I don't they're not dominant, but they're
- 42:40Speaker 1: a really good football team. And and they they play,
- 42:43Speaker 1: they they you know, they make the winning plays at
- 42:46Speaker 1: the end. They'll they'll lose some games, but I think,
- 42:49Speaker 1: you know, because of how they know how to win,
- 42:52Speaker 1: they'll they'll be fine. And and going back to I
- 42:55Speaker 1: don't remember was there. I think it was Rob that
- 42:57Speaker 1: was talking about the Jets, and everyone sort of talked
- 43:00Speaker 1: about the Jets. But I think when you look at
- 43:03Speaker 1: what they are, I think Aaron Glenn is very you know,
- 43:06Speaker 1: he's obviously he was on Dan Campbell's staff. And you know,
- 43:10Speaker 1: speaking of coaches, I mean, we want to bring some
- 43:12Speaker 1: coaches in, maybe a guy that coached Aaron Glenn. I mean,
- 43:15Speaker 1: does want to bring in Dave Campo? You want to
- 43:17Speaker 1: come in here? I mean, I mean, Dave Campbell is
- 43:20Speaker 1: sitting around out here. I'm not just going to sit
- 43:21Speaker 1: here and talk about coaches. If Dave Campbo's here, camps,
- 43:25Speaker 1: what's up? This is live? We're live, man. How you
- 43:28Speaker 1: you want to join us for a second?
- 43:30Speaker 4: Well, I got what We're doing a tour?
- 43:32Speaker 1: Doing a tour? All right? Well, well just for a second,
- 43:35Speaker 1: just for one second here, Dave Campo, you never know
- 43:40Speaker 1: what you're going to get here on Friday camps. What
- 43:43Speaker 1: we're talking about is culture, and obviously and you've you've
- 43:47Speaker 1: met Brian Schottenheimer and all that. So what do you
- 43:49Speaker 1: think about it the culture that he's creating.
- 43:50Speaker 20: Listen, I'm all for him when we came back here.
- 43:53Speaker 20: You know, we came back here for an alumni event
- 43:55Speaker 20: back during training camp, right, And I'll tell you to
- 43:59Speaker 20: be honest with you, he earned it. You know, there's
- 44:03Speaker 20: a lot of media yeah, driven head coaches. He's one
- 44:09Speaker 20: that earned it. And I like what he's doing. I
- 44:12Speaker 20: like the way he brought the alumni guys in and
- 44:15Speaker 20: the way he treated you know, he talked about Bob
- 44:17Speaker 20: Lily how important he was, and Randy White bringing him
- 44:22Speaker 20: to the deal. I mean, those are the kind of
- 44:24Speaker 20: things I think that resonate with players real quick.
- 44:27Speaker 1: I know, you got to go on the tour. What
- 44:28Speaker 1: you like about what you're seeing from the cow was
- 44:30Speaker 1: obviously their defense. You're defensive coach, so you can't love
- 44:33Speaker 1: what you're seeing there. But do you think this team
- 44:36Speaker 1: has a chance to kind of get on a run.
- 44:38Speaker 20: Absolutely, Listen, the fans should be somewhat excited. And when
- 44:42Speaker 20: I say somewhat, obviously the season hasn't gone exactly where
- 44:45Speaker 20: everybody would like to see it, but they should be
- 44:48Speaker 20: someone excited. Green Bay's defense is one of the best
- 44:53Speaker 20: in the league, and to score forty points on them,
- 44:56Speaker 20: you got to be excited about that.
- 44:58Speaker 4: Now.
- 44:58Speaker 20: Defensively, I know Matt Eberflus well. I actually coached with
- 45:01Speaker 20: him here i returned, and Matt's a good football coach.
- 45:05Speaker 20: He understands, Uh, it's going to take a little time.
- 45:08Speaker 20: He'll figure some things out. I think it takes a
- 45:10Speaker 20: little while to you know your players or what you
- 45:13Speaker 20: can get out of them. It's one thing in training
- 45:15Speaker 20: camp and OTAs, but when it gets to the season,
- 45:18Speaker 20: you really find out what guys can do and what
- 45:20Speaker 20: they can't do. So I think it's just a matter
- 45:22Speaker 20: of time before he gets it going.
- 45:24Speaker 1: Oh he just comes right and he thinks he's going
- 45:26Speaker 1: to be on a tour and we got him doing
- 45:27Speaker 1: the interviews.
- 45:28Speaker 20: Listen, firepowers what you need in this league, and we
- 45:31Speaker 20: got some firepower here.
- 45:32Speaker 4: Hopefully c D will be back and rolling.
- 45:35Speaker 1: So he got like a visitors bad you you were
- 45:37Speaker 1: a head coach and you need a visitors bag.
- 45:39Speaker 4: Well you know what I mean. I listen. I don't
- 45:41Speaker 4: flaw on it. I just enjoy being back.
- 45:43Speaker 12: You know.
- 45:43Speaker 1: Darren Woodson does the same thing. He wears a badge
- 45:45Speaker 1: over there. He's not a visitor, but he goes by
- 45:48Speaker 1: the rules.
- 45:48Speaker 20: I love it absolutely. And we moved back here, by
- 45:51Speaker 20: the way, I don't know if you know that. Back
- 45:53Speaker 20: you were in Jacksonville, right, yes, for three years, five
- 45:56Speaker 20: years actually, and we just moved back.
- 45:59Speaker 4: All our kids are grant kids are here.
- 46:00Speaker 1: So welcome anytime to come by the show anytime, and
- 46:03Speaker 1: we could do a more scheduled thing if you want.
- 46:05Speaker 1: But yeah, I love to hear from no problem.
- 46:07Speaker 4: I'm available, all right. Great to see you appreciate it,
- 46:10Speaker 4: all right, go call there we go.
- 46:12Speaker 1: Dave Campo just joins the show and love it. Love
- 46:15Speaker 1: to hear from him. Thanks to the guys that were
- 46:18Speaker 1: there walking him around.
- 46:20Speaker 4: All right.
- 46:21Speaker 1: I know we had a caller, uh we don't. We
- 46:23Speaker 1: got a few moments, so Randy, Randy, good night, you
- 46:28Speaker 1: might what's up man?
- 46:31Speaker 10: How you I'm all right, hey, out of surgery. Every
- 46:35Speaker 10: thing's looking good. They super glued me back together and uh,
- 46:38Speaker 10: it's all about the healing part.
- 46:39Speaker 9: Now.
- 46:40Speaker 1: Nice, that's great.
- 46:41Speaker 10: Sorry, he actually covered what I was talking about because
- 46:47Speaker 10: I was wanting to know what the feeling in the
- 46:49Speaker 10: room was about averplace, but he covered it, So we'll
- 46:51Speaker 10: move on something different.
- 46:52Speaker 1: There you go. I mean, you know, I I think
- 46:54Speaker 1: he's it's still it's still early. But I mean they
- 46:58Speaker 1: have to figure it out, and they I think, I
- 47:00Speaker 1: think Randy, that they have to come to figure out
- 47:03Speaker 1: like what the players are do best, what these guys.
- 47:06Speaker 1: You have to know your football team and and that's
- 47:08Speaker 1: something that that you know. I don't think that you
- 47:10Speaker 1: know what Diggs wasn't here, you know so as much,
- 47:13Speaker 1: and that's another part of it. So I think they're
- 47:15Speaker 1: still kind of learning about each other.
- 47:18Speaker 10: Got you a half off to Brian in Kansas City
- 47:23Speaker 10: for the fleet liquor question. That was that was my question.
- 47:25Speaker 10: I'm glad he answered it now, So you can just
- 47:27Speaker 10: figure out why they call it the tutish push will
- 47:29Speaker 10: be good.
- 47:30Speaker 1: You need to figure that out about it. It's the
- 47:35Speaker 1: most self explanatory.
- 47:37Speaker 10: Right, Well, I just want to hear somebody give their
- 47:40Speaker 10: definition of it. But no, what I was calling I'm
- 47:43Speaker 10: gonna run real fast because I'm actually fixing a walk
- 47:46Speaker 10: into the doctor's office to let them poke me and
- 47:48Speaker 10: get some more blood real quick. Well, yeah, one of
- 47:52Speaker 10: the things I want to talk about, man, yesterday, when
- 47:55Speaker 10: I we talked about the captains and you said there
- 47:57Speaker 10: was no way you'd take me out the team. That
- 47:59Speaker 10: felt all to hear you say that, and I loved it.
- 48:03Speaker 10: And because you said that, I feel like maybe I
- 48:07Speaker 10: should say that if you need a spot for new captains,
- 48:11Speaker 10: because there's a lot of good callers that call in
- 48:13Speaker 10: a lot more than I do, I will volunteer my
- 48:16Speaker 10: spot to give somebody else a year of glory, you
- 48:20Speaker 10: know what I mean. So that's out there, And then
- 48:22Speaker 10: real quick on my question, and I'll just let y'all
- 48:25Speaker 10: debate it. And I know it's been covered a million times,
- 48:27Speaker 10: but I kind of want to dig into it. I'm
- 48:29Speaker 10: back and forth on these number one picks on what
- 48:32Speaker 10: I'd rather do, hold them for the draft or go
- 48:35Speaker 10: after somebody. And my feeling is if it's a crapshoot
- 48:39Speaker 10: with the draft, You've seen it with our own number
- 48:41Speaker 10: one picks, Mazzi and just stuff like that, wouldn't we
- 48:45Speaker 10: be better off if we can lock them down to
- 48:48Speaker 10: a four or five year contract to go after people
- 48:51Speaker 10: that are known to be.
- 48:53Speaker 12: Ready to roll right away.
- 48:55Speaker 10: And if so, I think Jerry needs to be aggressive.
- 48:58Speaker 10: Don't sit back and try to be a salesman. And hey,
- 49:01Speaker 10: we're open for business if anybody's call. Sometimes you can't
- 49:04Speaker 10: wait on call. Sometimes you have to pick up the
- 49:06Speaker 10: phone and make the call. So if that would be
- 49:09Speaker 10: the plan, I really wish you wouldn't wait till the deadline.
- 49:13Speaker 10: Just go ahead and start doing it now so we
- 49:15Speaker 10: can get get the team rolling, you know what I mean.
- 49:18Speaker 10: And with that being said, love you guys, and uh
- 49:21Speaker 10: got to get in here and get poked on. All right,
- 49:23Speaker 10: We'll see you.
- 49:24Speaker 1: Thanks, Andy, appreciate that. Uh yeah, let's let's uh we'll
- 49:27Speaker 1: figure out the captain's stuff later. That's a that's a
- 49:30Speaker 1: great gesture. I can promise you this though. Whether that
- 49:36Speaker 1: happens or not, whatever we call it, we're you know,
- 49:39Speaker 1: you're going to have a spot on the team on something.
- 49:43Speaker 1: Whatever we're giving out T shirts or these or both, whatever,
- 49:48Speaker 1: you're gonna have the best one. We'll we'll we'll see,
- 49:51Speaker 1: Uh you you call enough, but you're right, we've got
- 49:54Speaker 1: a lot of great callers and we had some today.
- 49:56Speaker 1: We had some of all different time zones. It was
- 49:59Speaker 1: awesome as for me in that trade or trades and
- 50:01Speaker 1: all that. You know what this game I mean not
- 50:05Speaker 1: to not to just take it back to this game,
- 50:07Speaker 1: but but this is the type of game that kind
- 50:09Speaker 1: of shows what you can do. You don't go win
- 50:12Speaker 1: this game against the Jets that you're not gonna make trades,
- 50:14Speaker 1: You're not gonna go and you know, try to help
- 50:16Speaker 1: this season. I don't believe. I think that you've got
- 50:19Speaker 1: to win games like this one wins like you know,
- 50:21Speaker 1: next week against Carolina, then you kind of see where
- 50:24Speaker 1: you are, what type of move that you need to make.
- 50:27Speaker 1: But I mean it's still relatively early. There's got injuries
- 50:30Speaker 1: and stuff like that. But still I think we're gonna
- 50:33Speaker 1: find out a lot about the team. I love what
- 50:35Speaker 1: Rob said about Shoddy, Like you know, it's easy to
- 50:37Speaker 1: get the get them up for the Eagles game and
- 50:39Speaker 1: then the home opener against the Giants and then you
- 50:41Speaker 1: know and obviously the Packers, but they didn't get them
- 50:43Speaker 1: up for the for the Bears game, and it showed
- 50:45Speaker 1: you got to get them up for this game against
- 50:47Speaker 1: the Jets. See what happens. It's gonna be a lot
- 50:49Speaker 1: of fun to talk about. We'll do it again on Monday.
- 50:52Speaker 1: So for Chris Beam, I'm Nick Eatman. See you Monday
- 50:54Speaker 1: on Cowboys Storyline.
