Transcript
- 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 Cowboys.
- 0:12Speaker 3: This is He's Cowboys.
- 0:14Speaker 1: Storyline with Nick Eatman. By my count, I've got five
- 0:23Speaker 1: hundred and thirty games that I've watched for the Dallas Cowboys.
- 0:27Speaker 1: Five hundred and thirty. It's a lot. I don't think
- 0:30Speaker 1: I've seen one crazier than that. I know I haven't.
- 0:34Speaker 1: Cowboys thirty four Washington twenty six. Remember three to three
- 0:40Speaker 1: at the half? What an insane football game that was?
- 0:44Speaker 1: I'm Nick Eatman. Cowboys storyline. Oh yeah, we'll get to
- 0:46Speaker 1: all that Cowboys storyline. We're here. We want to talk
- 0:49Speaker 1: about this game. I woke up this morning and I
- 0:54Speaker 1: really was like, wait, was that a dream or did that? No? No, no,
- 0:58Speaker 1: that happened. Turpin' hm. You know Josh Rodriguez, he does
- 1:03Speaker 1: the Talking Cowboys and he's in the back. He came
- 1:06Speaker 1: up with a nickname Turpy Turpy Speed Speed, and we thought, okay,
- 1:12Speaker 1: he liked it. Though h Turpin liked it, I wasn't
- 1:16Speaker 1: sure what I thought about it. It was very appropriate
- 1:18Speaker 1: on that on that kickoff return. I mean that that's
- 1:21Speaker 1: what that was. It was just you just gotta have
- 1:24Speaker 1: like noises. I mean, he just makes the ball like,
- 1:25Speaker 1: oh God, fumbled it, Like what do you And then
- 1:28Speaker 1: he's like I think I'm in the press Bible. What
- 1:29Speaker 1: are you doing? Like what is he doing? And then
- 1:32Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you know, he does hits the
- 1:35Speaker 1: He hits the spin move, hits the speed burst touchdown. Unbelievable.
- 1:43Speaker 1: Cowboys thirty four Washington twenty six, and still speechless. I can't.
- 1:46Speaker 1: I still can't believe that that game went down like that.
- 1:48Speaker 1: Missed extra point by Washington. Maybe they should have gone
- 1:52Speaker 1: for two, probably, I mean, obviously they should have gone
- 1:54Speaker 1: for two if your kid, if your kicker is gonna
- 1:56Speaker 1: miss it, because I don't think Cowboys could tackle J. J.
- 2:00Speaker 1: Daniels if he was just trying to run around the edge.
- 2:02Speaker 1: I mean, he's gonna get two yards. But Washington decides
- 2:07Speaker 1: to kick an extra point to tie the game, misses it.
- 2:13Speaker 1: Kyle was getting another kickoff return for a touchdown one
- 2:15Speaker 1: Yer Thomas and they went at thirty four, twenty six,
- 2:20Speaker 1: just like everyone drew it up. All right, let's talk
- 2:23Speaker 1: about it. Eric in Klleen, Texas is our first caller. Eric,
- 2:27Speaker 1: what's up? Eric, what's up?
- 2:32Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 2:32Speaker 4: Hey, hey Nick?
- 2:33Speaker 1: You good? How you doing awesome?
- 2:36Speaker 4: So I'm a school teacher and I usually have a
- 2:39Speaker 4: really hard time getting in, so I can't believe I'm
- 2:41Speaker 4: the leadoff guy today.
- 2:43Speaker 1: You got us, You're the first nice.
- 2:46Speaker 4: So anyway, last week, you guys were doing a lot
- 2:48Speaker 4: of talking about you know, am I a fan if
- 2:51Speaker 4: I want to lose and get a draff pick or
- 2:53Speaker 4: so I want to win? And I don't know, man,
- 2:57Speaker 4: I was both of those people. Yesterday. I was dropping
- 3:01Speaker 4: back from Dallas during the first half, so I was
- 3:03Speaker 4: kind of splittening and watching but not really paying my detention.
- 3:08Speaker 4: And then when I got oh, I got to watch
- 3:09Speaker 4: the second have and when we went up, I was like,
- 3:13Speaker 4: oh yeah, like Ken like, at least it's the Commanders,
- 3:15Speaker 4: you know, we get one. At least it's them. And
- 3:19Speaker 4: then they get that that that's done. I'm like, oh,
- 3:21Speaker 4: of course, cowboys back like we're not gonna win. Oh well,
- 3:24Speaker 4: at least we get a decent draft taker. I'm not
- 3:27Speaker 4: going to ruin my day. But then when they missed
- 3:30Speaker 4: the extra point, I went back to elation over the win.
- 3:34Speaker 4: And I have your answer. The answer is you want
- 3:36Speaker 4: to win the game no matter what.
- 3:40Speaker 1: Of course, I mean, yeah, you want to win. Well
- 3:44Speaker 1: that what had just described was what I keep talking
- 3:46Speaker 1: about about the roller coaster. That's the roller coaster of emotions.
- 3:51Speaker 1: Is what is what that that was? So yeah, I
- 3:54Speaker 1: mean but but I think ultimately you want to win
- 3:57Speaker 1: the game. I mean, that's that's just kind of the
- 3:59Speaker 1: way it is. You want you want to win, especially
- 4:02Speaker 1: when you're going up against you know, a team like Washington,
- 4:06Speaker 1: and you always want to win the game. So I
- 4:09Speaker 1: think so, But I do see.
- 4:12Speaker 4: What they were saying. When I thought we were going
- 4:14Speaker 4: to fall into old habit. It wasn't like the end
- 4:16Speaker 4: of the world like it usually feels. Running that playoff rush.
- 4:19Speaker 1: It was like, oh well, at least yeah, It's just
- 4:22Speaker 1: that's just a silver lining. That's why I look at it,
- 4:25Speaker 1: the draft pick stuff. It's just kind of the silver
- 4:28Speaker 1: lining to it all. But I mean, no, it's you know,
- 4:31Speaker 1: you're you're I think I think that people that are
- 4:34Speaker 1: on this show that call in, you know and listen,
- 4:37Speaker 1: they they they want to win their diehards. They want
- 4:40Speaker 1: to win these games. All right, Eric, you got anything else?
- 4:48Speaker 1: Thank you appreciate it. All right, Let's keep this thing going.
- 4:52Speaker 1: I think we all well, you know, if anyone really
- 4:57Speaker 1: was like I don't want them to win, I really
- 5:00Speaker 1: just don't think that it like this doesn't hit the
- 5:05Speaker 1: same you know, as a Cowboy fan. I mean, it's
- 5:07Speaker 1: just not I don't think people are just totally invested.
- 5:11Speaker 1: That's why we don't get a lot of those guys
- 5:13Speaker 1: on these shows, because on this show, I mean, people
- 5:16Speaker 1: are just are all in. I think that the casual
- 5:18Speaker 1: fan that wants them to do well and thinks, well,
- 5:21Speaker 1: I'm okay if they lose some of these games, because
- 5:23Speaker 1: I hopefully maybe next year will be the year. But
- 5:26Speaker 1: you know, the way they played that game, I mean
- 5:29Speaker 1: they should get credit for the way they fought. Listen,
- 5:34Speaker 1: they're four and seven, okay, and Washington is I don't know,
- 5:38Speaker 1: seven and five. Now, Dallas was the better football team.
- 5:42Speaker 1: Dallas was the better team. I'm not talking about who's
- 5:44Speaker 1: the better team overall and who's going to have a
- 5:47Speaker 1: better record, but when they lined up from the start
- 5:49Speaker 1: of the game to the end of the game, the
- 5:52Speaker 1: Cowboys were the better team. They were they They had
- 5:56Speaker 1: mistakes that game should have you know, Washington had mistakes too.
- 5:59Speaker 1: There was the Cowboys were absolutely you know not they
- 6:03Speaker 1: were fortunate that the guy missed. But I mean, okay,
- 6:07Speaker 1: goes in, goes into overtime. Who do you like to
- 6:10Speaker 1: win that game? I mean, what if the Cowboys win
- 6:12Speaker 1: the toss, You're gonna kick it off to Turpin? Good
- 6:14Speaker 1: luck with that. Are they gonna make a field goal?
- 6:17Speaker 1: Are they you know the kicker? I mean, you got
- 6:20Speaker 1: Aubrey over here. I think I'll take the Cowboys chances there.
- 6:23Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys, you know, had a better chance
- 6:26Speaker 1: to win if it went overtime. That's why if I
- 6:27Speaker 1: was dan Quinn would have gone for two. But you know,
- 6:31Speaker 1: you're not necessarily thinking he had a lot. He thought
- 6:33Speaker 1: he had a little bit more time to figure that out,
- 6:35Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, it's an eighty six
- 6:37Speaker 1: yard touchdown and he's got to He's gotta make a
- 6:39Speaker 1: decision on the fly there. But I just thought the
- 6:41Speaker 1: Cowboys were the better team. I thought they did. I
- 6:43Speaker 1: thought the coaching did a really nice job with the
- 6:46Speaker 1: game plan offense and defense, and I just I thought
- 6:50Speaker 1: the Cowboys outplayed them. They were physical, they they weren't
- 6:53Speaker 1: getting they weren't getting pushed around in this game. It
- 6:56Speaker 1: was a very very good effort. I thought for the
- 6:59Speaker 1: Cowboys from start hard to finish, and I thought they
- 7:01Speaker 1: were the better team. I thought they deserved to win
- 7:03Speaker 1: and they did all right. Next callers Albert and Tucson, Arizona.
- 7:08Speaker 5: Hey, good morning, Eh my man, how are you?
- 7:10Speaker 1: How are you doing?
- 7:11Speaker 6: You know what?
- 7:12Speaker 5: I just gained about ten years of my life back,
- 7:17Speaker 5: you know, and you're you're about one thousand percent right?
- 7:20Speaker 5: You know they are the better team because you know,
- 7:26Speaker 5: from start to finish, you can I was more not
- 7:30Speaker 5: because I'm a fan, but I was more checking out
- 7:33Speaker 5: the boxes on my team than I was them. And
- 7:38Speaker 5: the one question I do have is our offensive line
- 7:43Speaker 5: paid played awesome? You know, yeah they you know you
- 7:48Speaker 5: couldn't I mean get any the way we played. You
- 7:52Speaker 5: couldn't get it any better. What do you think the
- 7:55Speaker 5: possibility of us staying with those two guys the rest
- 7:59Speaker 5: of the season? Uh is you know, Uh, it's going
- 8:03Speaker 5: to happen. And one more question, what do you think
- 8:07Speaker 5: we get? You know, if we continue we stack on
- 8:10Speaker 5: the Giants Thanksgiving, we start up these games, how dangerous
- 8:15Speaker 5: would we be?
- 8:16Speaker 6: Say?
- 8:17Speaker 7: You know, we do?
- 8:18Speaker 5: We do win out? So anyway go Cowboys. Thank you
- 8:21Speaker 5: for everything you're doing and God bless everybody.
- 8:25Speaker 1: All right, thank you. I appreciate the call. Let's get
- 8:29Speaker 1: someone get cared away about winning out. It's a level
- 8:33Speaker 1: of consistency that that we just haven't seen from from
- 8:36Speaker 1: this team at all. I mean, we were asking them
- 8:39Speaker 1: to put four quarters together. They almost did not do that,
- 8:46Speaker 1: but but it was it was a challenge to get
- 8:48Speaker 1: four quarters of good football together. I mean, you know,
- 8:52Speaker 1: stop the presses here. The Cowboys outscored Washington seven to
- 8:56Speaker 1: six in the third quarter. They actually scored someone in
- 9:00Speaker 1: the third quarter. I mean, wow, Well, Washington didn't take
- 9:04Speaker 1: that ball to start the started and went right down
- 9:06Speaker 1: the field and scored. But what did the Cowboys do
- 9:09Speaker 1: For the first time all season, they went and scored
- 9:14Speaker 1: on the first possession of the third quarter, first time
- 9:17Speaker 1: out of the blocks went down there scored. I thought
- 9:20Speaker 1: the miss extra point, not the second one, the first one.
- 9:23Speaker 1: I thought the first one was really big, because yeah, okay,
- 9:26Speaker 1: Washington goes in scores, but it's nine to three, and
- 9:28Speaker 1: I thought that just kind of took a little bit
- 9:31Speaker 1: of the wind out of the sALS just a little bit.
- 9:33Speaker 1: Cowboys took the ball had a really nice drive down
- 9:37Speaker 1: the field, scored, got their extra point, took the lead,
- 9:39Speaker 1: and I think from a confidence standpoint, they really were
- 9:43Speaker 1: able to carry carry that through, you know, for the
- 9:46Speaker 1: rest of the rest of the game. To answer your
- 9:47Speaker 1: question about the offensive line, huge huge props for brock
- 9:51Speaker 1: K Hoffman and TJ. Bass to play with Cooper beb
- 9:54Speaker 1: there and it was weird. Bbi's the guy that's been
- 9:57Speaker 1: starting those snaps now, I mean, they were all over
- 10:01Speaker 1: the place, and Cooper Rusher is a solid, solid backup. Okay,
- 10:07Speaker 1: but you see a lot of the differences too with
- 10:11Speaker 1: just catching the ball. You take that for granted, you know, Dak,
- 10:14Speaker 1: I think it has got really good you know hands,
- 10:16Speaker 1: he catches it, you don't even think about it. Sometimes
- 10:18Speaker 1: it's a little bit more of a challenge there for
- 10:20Speaker 1: Cooper Rusher if it's not like right there. But but
- 10:24Speaker 1: I thought the way the line blocked was really really impressive.
- 10:28Speaker 1: I think you I mean, I've always said this about
- 10:31Speaker 1: Bass and Hoffman, Okay, if there was money to be
- 10:34Speaker 1: made in this, and you know, equal to what the
- 10:38Speaker 1: NFL players make, these guys they should be wearing T
- 10:42Speaker 1: shirts that say staff on the back. They're bouncers. They'd
- 10:45Speaker 1: be in the club.
- 10:46Speaker 8: They can.
- 10:46Speaker 1: They take care of business. That's what they are. They're
- 10:49Speaker 1: like brawlers. And they, especially Hoffman. Hoffman's trying to get
- 10:54Speaker 1: in a fight every play, almost every single play. Once
- 10:56Speaker 1: they get into into a fight, he did a couple
- 10:58Speaker 1: of times. That's just kind of the way they are,
- 11:01Speaker 1: the way they play, and and they're scrappy. I mean,
- 11:04Speaker 1: tell them, tell them they're not good enough, tell them
- 11:06Speaker 1: they're backups. Tell them that Zach Martin and Tyler Smith
- 11:10Speaker 1: are out and they have no chance to win. I
- 11:13Speaker 1: mean Hoffins Hoffins started two games in the last like
- 11:17Speaker 1: two games in the calendar year of twenty twenty four,
- 11:21Speaker 1: both of them in Washington, and they and they've won
- 11:24Speaker 1: both of them. I mean, that's just now do you
- 11:27Speaker 1: want to do you want to just go back to
- 11:29Speaker 1: them and just say, I'm sorry, Zach Martin, it's been
- 11:31Speaker 1: a nice run. I don't think that's happening. If Zach's
- 11:34Speaker 1: coming back, he comes back, and if Tyler's coming, Tyler
- 11:37Speaker 1: will be back. He should maybe even play this game.
- 11:39Speaker 1: I think from what I heard, the thought of him
- 11:41Speaker 1: not playing this game was so he could play this game.
- 11:44Speaker 1: Against the Giants. Just gonna be a really tough turnaround
- 11:46Speaker 1: for him. Give him some rest. That's kind of the
- 11:49Speaker 1: same way for Brandon Cooks as well. Robbie Koco Beach,
- 11:53Speaker 1: Florida's next.
- 11:55Speaker 8: What's up, Nick? How are you today?
- 11:57Speaker 1: I'm good? How are you?
- 11:59Speaker 8: I am awesome. I'm always awesome. Life' is always good.
- 12:03Speaker 8: I got great things just like you. Good family, good friends,
- 12:06Speaker 8: good job. It's always better when the Cowboys win. How
- 12:09Speaker 8: about them boys?
- 12:10Speaker 9: Baby?
- 12:10Speaker 1: How about it? How about it always going positive? And
- 12:14Speaker 1: I'm glad they were able to do that, you guys.
- 12:16Speaker 1: I mean really, games like that are for are for
- 12:20Speaker 1: fans like you, Robbie, honestly because you got you you
- 12:22Speaker 1: you keep a positive attitude throughout the thing. But you
- 12:25Speaker 1: know what, everyone deserves to win. Everyone deserves it a
- 12:28Speaker 1: good moment, and so so I'm proud of I'm proud
- 12:30Speaker 1: of it for for for you guys, because I have
- 12:33Speaker 1: a personal connection to a lot of you guys that
- 12:35Speaker 1: call in, and I mean I don't sometimes I'm like,
- 12:38Speaker 1: how do you guys keep doing it? How do you
- 12:40Speaker 1: guys keep bringing the positive energy? So I'm glad when
- 12:42Speaker 1: they win, you know, just even if it's one day.
- 12:44Speaker 8: This is how this is how we keep That's how
- 12:47Speaker 8: I keep the positive energy because you know we're okay,
- 12:51Speaker 8: call me crazy. We're still in the playoff hunt, barely
- 12:53Speaker 8: but possible.
- 12:55Speaker 10: Hey, does that some root for?
- 12:57Speaker 1: Why?
- 12:58Speaker 8: And what did Bill Parcells always say the season starts
- 13:01Speaker 8: a new if you make the playoffs.
- 13:02Speaker 1: Yeah, well he always says, talk to me at Thanksgiving.
- 13:06Speaker 1: That's really what he said. Talk to me with Thanksgiving.
- 13:08Speaker 1: We'll see. I'll be honest, I'm a little worried about
- 13:13Speaker 1: this game coming up. There's something about Yes, yes, I'm
- 13:19Speaker 1: telling you. I'm telling you, there's something about I've been reading.
- 13:21Speaker 1: I was reading up on this and I was reading
- 13:23Speaker 1: about this uff that they're saying. They sound disfunctional as
- 13:27Speaker 1: you know what. Okay, they they are talking bad. I mean,
- 13:30Speaker 1: we've got a rookie receiver. You're talking about why I
- 13:32Speaker 1: don't get the ball? Go ask the coach about I
- 13:35Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, something's not right. They're they're calling
- 13:38Speaker 1: each other out that they're soft. I've seen this too
- 13:41Speaker 1: many times. They get on a plane short week, world
- 13:45Speaker 1: stacked against them. The Cowboys gotta win. They're gonna go
- 13:47Speaker 1: to the giants. They're gonna go to Thanksgiving. Just be
- 13:50Speaker 1: careful this, This to me, could be a tough game.
- 13:54Speaker 8: I really think that stupid Eli right on our wall
- 13:57Speaker 8: first win Cowboys Stadium that.
- 14:00Speaker 1: Got painted over in like thirty seconds.
- 14:02Speaker 8: I know, I love it. I knew it happened, but
- 14:04Speaker 8: still it's still frustrated. Yeah, hey man, listen, what a
- 14:09Speaker 8: great game though, vont turpins like a human joystick. Holy smokes.
- 14:13Speaker 8: They don't even do that in the Madden Games.
- 14:15Speaker 1: Man, Yeah, you know what, I want to see that,
- 14:18Speaker 1: just like the sakuon Barkley that you know, it took
- 14:20Speaker 1: like an hour, and they put that backwards flip. They
- 14:24Speaker 1: put that in the in the Madden game. I mean,
- 14:27Speaker 1: I think they do have that that that spin move.
- 14:29Speaker 1: I'm sure while upgrading it. But the thing about it
- 14:34Speaker 1: is is, and he's frustrating for somebody like me. It's
- 14:39Speaker 1: frustrating to be like because you just want to say run.
- 14:41Speaker 1: If you just run, you're you. You become even faster
- 14:45Speaker 1: to the guys that are going full speed. Now, if
- 14:48Speaker 1: you get hit, you get hurt. But but we take
- 14:51Speaker 1: for granted of how quickly these got him, how quickly
- 14:55Speaker 1: he can accelerate he.
- 14:57Speaker 8: And he sure did. It went from like zero with
- 14:59Speaker 8: that sind to full speed.
- 15:01Speaker 1: Yeah, it was.
- 15:02Speaker 8: It really was incredible.
- 15:03Speaker 1: It's it's not the Woody Danceler return because Woody dances
- 15:08Speaker 1: return against this forty nine Ers two thousand and two
- 15:10Speaker 1: that had everything you want, But it's it's probably second.
- 15:14Speaker 1: It's my second favorite kick return in Cowboys history.
- 15:17Speaker 6: It was.
- 15:17Speaker 8: I'll take that agree with that.
- 15:19Speaker 1: It was. It was amazing. And I didn't see the
- 15:21Speaker 1: Hollywood Henderson reverse when he was a line a linebacker
- 15:26Speaker 1: taking a reverse all the ways for a touchdown. That
- 15:29Speaker 1: that was probably.
- 15:30Speaker 8: Pretty pretty awesome.
- 15:31Speaker 1: Yeah, that's prebby pretty awesome though. I mean, but just
- 15:34Speaker 1: think about just think about it. If they gave it
- 15:36Speaker 1: to Eric Kendricks around the edge and Eric Kendricks went
- 15:38Speaker 1: ninety five yards like that would be impressive. That would
- 15:41Speaker 1: be pretty all right. All right.
- 15:43Speaker 8: So last week on Friday, you said give us one game.
- 15:46Speaker 8: I'll give you one game that you could depict a win,
- 15:48Speaker 8: and you're gonna win no matter what. I didn't fully understand,
- 15:51Speaker 8: but picked this game because I always want to beat
- 15:54Speaker 8: the Reds the Commander, sure, but I always want to
- 15:59Speaker 8: beat the Eagles too.
- 16:00Speaker 1: Yeah, the Eagles started to pick up some life there
- 16:02Speaker 1: as I think as people started to really understand what
- 16:05Speaker 1: we were saying. Yeah, Eagles.
- 16:08Speaker 8: So if I'll take that, I'll take a redo and
- 16:11Speaker 8: say I want to beat the Eagles at the end
- 16:13Speaker 8: of the year, of the second last game and you know,
- 16:17Speaker 8: make their jobs to the playoffs harder and maybe get
- 16:20Speaker 8: us in. Maybe gonna be positive. I'm going to keep
- 16:24Speaker 8: rooting for our Cowboys and keep rooting that we make
- 16:26Speaker 8: the playoffs and somehow go on a crazy run and
- 16:30Speaker 8: win the Super Bowl.
- 16:30Speaker 1: I love it.
- 16:31Speaker 8: That's what we all want, right, brother.
- 16:33Speaker 1: That's right, that's what we want, all right.
- 16:35Speaker 8: I know I've taken a long time. I'll talk to you, man.
- 16:37Speaker 1: Yeah, you deserve it.
- 16:38Speaker 6: You.
- 16:39Speaker 1: I appreciate that. You know they'll be they'll be favored
- 16:44Speaker 1: to beat the Giants. I mean, I'm sure that line's
- 16:46Speaker 1: already out. I don't know about Cincinnati. Cincinnati is tough
- 16:51Speaker 1: to figure out too. I mean, like, like we all,
- 16:54Speaker 1: you know, we know how good Burrow is and they
- 16:56Speaker 1: have Jamar Chase and all that, but you know they
- 16:59Speaker 1: do They're not They're not a great now at Carolina.
- 17:03Speaker 1: I mean, Carolina's over here, given the Chiefs a game,
- 17:07Speaker 1: almost winning that game Tampa Bay at home. I mean
- 17:10Speaker 1: Tampa Bay. They they needed the Giants to stop there
- 17:14Speaker 1: for four game losing streak. So then these next four
- 17:17Speaker 1: games are certainly winnable. I think they'll be favored in
- 17:21Speaker 1: some of them. But you know, just like the game,
- 17:23Speaker 1: how insane the game was yesterday? It's what I mean, Look,
- 17:28Speaker 1: look at the Cowboys. They're four and two on the road.
- 17:31Speaker 1: Four and two's there's a lot of good football teams
- 17:34Speaker 1: out there that probably aren't four and two on the road.
- 17:37Speaker 1: This team's zero to five at home. I mean, if
- 17:42Speaker 1: that's not just weird football, then then nothing else is.
- 17:45Speaker 1: So so you can say, yeah, they got the Giants
- 17:47Speaker 1: and Bengals at home, and then at Carolina, then at
- 17:49Speaker 1: the Bucks. Okay, but what does home mean? Does it
- 17:52Speaker 1: mean to win? It hasn't yet, all right. I don't
- 17:55Speaker 1: know what's going on in Tucson, Arizona, but we're going
- 17:57Speaker 1: back there for the second time. Steve and two Son, Hey.
- 18:01Speaker 11: Hey, how's it going?
- 18:02Speaker 6: Man?
- 18:02Speaker 11: It's fifty nine degrees and sunny?
- 18:04Speaker 1: All right? All right?
- 18:07Speaker 11: Victory Monday. You know, I would just want to get
- 18:10Speaker 11: your your take on this. My son was very happy
- 18:14Speaker 11: that they won. But obviously the losses that we've had,
- 18:17Speaker 11: My seventeen year old take those losses a lot harder
- 18:19Speaker 11: than I have. And you did touch on the subject of, like,
- 18:22Speaker 11: you know, let's not get too excited. It was just
- 18:24Speaker 11: a win. But I wanted to ask you and your
- 18:28Speaker 11: take on was the route better ran on this game?
- 18:32Speaker 11: Is it that Rush has had some time with practice,
- 18:35Speaker 11: you know, and having actual you know, time to to
- 18:39Speaker 11: to you know, with wide receiver one and RB one
- 18:43Speaker 11: and whatever it is. I don't know what your take
- 18:45Speaker 11: was on that, but it just seemed different to me
- 18:48Speaker 11: came around. So I blame a little bit more on
- 18:52Speaker 11: Washington's coverage or you know, them them coming off of
- 18:55Speaker 11: a couple of losses. But yeah, you're right, I know
- 18:58Speaker 11: that we have giants coming up, but with that QB change,
- 19:03Speaker 11: I'm not sure you know how that's going to go
- 19:04Speaker 11: downtown skaming weekend. But you know, I think after thirty years,
- 19:08Speaker 11: we have to have some hope. I know that it's
- 19:11Speaker 11: not even possible to you know, to think of us
- 19:14Speaker 11: in the playoffs, but we have to have some hope.
- 19:17Speaker 11: And that's that's why I bring up my seventy yer old.
- 19:19Speaker 11: Sometimes you tell me, Dad, why did you make me
- 19:21Speaker 11: a cowboy fan? I didn't make your sign on your own.
- 19:24Speaker 11: But it's been thirty years for me, it's been only
- 19:27Speaker 11: seventeens for you. But you know, I just wanted to
- 19:29Speaker 11: take your your, your, your your thoughts on that because
- 19:31Speaker 11: it did seem different on the field. Yeah, this game,
- 19:34Speaker 11: I don't know what it was, but the blocking, obviously
- 19:37Speaker 11: you guys touched on that. It was a lot better.
- 19:39Speaker 11: I don't know if we I doubt we do. You
- 19:41Speaker 11: also touched on it. I doubt that they stay in,
- 19:44Speaker 11: but it just seemed like coverage and the time, and
- 19:47Speaker 11: there was some throws, some passes by by Rush that
- 19:50Speaker 11: were about to get you know, tipped or he was
- 19:53Speaker 11: about to get hit or sacked, but he got the
- 19:56Speaker 11: ball away. And that's all we've been wanting all here,
- 19:58Speaker 11: even when Dak was in. So, you know, events for
- 20:00Speaker 11: the car really appreciated and uh god, bless everyone.
- 20:04Speaker 1: Well, thank you, thank you for the call. Steve Chris
- 20:09Speaker 1: was that first time caller Steve Steve in Tucson. No,
- 20:12Speaker 1: he's called before. Okay, sorry, but still, you know what
- 20:15Speaker 1: we can give it here we go there we give
- 20:17Speaker 1: it here, we go to Steve because uh, you know
- 20:20Speaker 1: he he hit on a couple of things there. It did.
- 20:24Speaker 1: You look at the stats and you see eighty eighty
- 20:27Speaker 1: seven yards rushing. I think for Rico Daddle four point
- 20:31Speaker 1: five yard average. Okay, I mean that that's that's that's
- 20:35Speaker 1: good numbers for this team. It's it's really good numbers.
- 20:38Speaker 1: But it did feel different, and I think that's and
- 20:42Speaker 1: I want to want to come back from the break,
- 20:43Speaker 1: I'll have a better stat It's something I've been wanting
- 20:46Speaker 1: to to look at. Anyways, it just felt like on
- 20:48Speaker 1: first down they had a lot more success his first
- 20:52Speaker 1: down running, it felt like there were six seven every time.
- 20:57Speaker 1: Now I'm doing some of the stats here, I don't
- 20:59Speaker 1: even see that many. It's three six, it's four, but
- 21:02Speaker 1: but still not a lot of negative ones, not not
- 21:06Speaker 1: a lot of zero. I mean, they ran the ball well.
- 21:09Speaker 1: Now I'm not talking about that last drive. And even
- 21:11Speaker 1: on that last drive where they were trying to run
- 21:14Speaker 1: out the clock, the way they were running it, I
- 21:18Speaker 1: would have gone I would have gone with Daddle three times.
- 21:21Speaker 1: I think Daddle could have got it three times the
- 21:23Speaker 1: way he was running the way they were blocking I
- 21:26Speaker 1: think they could have done it.
- 21:26Speaker 6: Now.
- 21:27Speaker 1: I think that they tried Cooper Rush a couple of times,
- 21:29Speaker 1: and I think what he was trying to do was
- 21:31Speaker 1: also get some plays that weren't just two seconds, just
- 21:33Speaker 1: one two, you know. But I think I think he
- 21:37Speaker 1: could have run it. I mean, and even even if
- 21:40Speaker 1: it's not a first down, may have been a territory
- 21:44Speaker 1: where it's four down. You know where you were, you
- 21:46Speaker 1: run it four times? Who knows? But I just that
- 21:49Speaker 1: they ran the ball well and Cooper Rush, they did
- 21:51Speaker 1: a nice job of getting the ball out of his
- 21:52Speaker 1: hands quickly. A little bit more motion, a little bit
- 21:56Speaker 1: more creativity. Uh, it was. It was definitely impressive. Let's
- 21:59Speaker 1: go to Brian, Kansas City before we go to break Brian.
- 22:02Speaker 1: What's up man?
- 22:03Speaker 6: Hey, good morning sir.
- 22:04Speaker 1: How are you man?
- 22:06Speaker 6: This is the one that when you asked me that
- 22:08Speaker 6: last week, this is the one I asked for.
- 22:10Speaker 1: Yep, oh yeah, you did. You did say that, that's right?
- 22:13Speaker 6: I said, oh yeah, I just I want to go
- 22:15Speaker 6: to Washington and get a win in their house.
- 22:19Speaker 1: You got it, You definitely got it. Piss them off.
- 22:23Speaker 6: Did you do any hollering in the press booths that
- 22:25Speaker 6: you're not allowed to do during the fourth quarter.
- 22:28Speaker 1: No, No, it wasn't a lot of hollering. But uh,
- 22:32Speaker 1: I tell you, I've been so trained I guess over
- 22:35Speaker 1: the years that just I mean, you just have to
- 22:38Speaker 1: just be chilling. Now. Of all press boxes though, that
- 22:42Speaker 1: you could get away with it, it would be Washington.
- 22:44Speaker 1: I've always said that that there's the only press box
- 22:47Speaker 1: I've ever seen where they have foam fingers up there.
- 22:49Speaker 1: I mean, there's cheering in the press boxes that goes
- 22:52Speaker 1: on in Washington more than ever. But you know, they
- 22:54Speaker 1: don't get to do it that often. But yeah, when
- 22:57Speaker 1: they when they were scoring that touchdown, when that guy
- 23:00Speaker 1: when when McLaren went, yeah it was it was getting
- 23:03Speaker 1: pretty pretty loud in there. So but yeah, it was.
- 23:06Speaker 1: It was not but when they missed and I honestly
- 23:09Speaker 1: had a feel and he was gonna miss I really did.
- 23:12Speaker 1: I was just like, just just because how crazy would
- 23:15Speaker 1: it be if he misses again? You know, and the
- 23:18Speaker 1: snap was way in the in the grass, and you
- 23:21Speaker 1: know they kind of messed the whole operation up.
- 23:25Speaker 6: Yeah, it was. It was a really weird special teams game.
- 23:30Speaker 1: Yeah, like very weird.
- 23:33Speaker 6: That's all that. You know. The announcers just kept saying
- 23:35Speaker 6: like this is maybe you know, up until Urp scored
- 23:38Speaker 6: that they were saying, this is maybe the worst special
- 23:41Speaker 6: teams game we've ever seen, you know, and then you know,
- 23:45Speaker 6: Turp scored, and you know, it just turns into maybe
- 23:47Speaker 6: the strangest special teams game you ever saw.
- 23:50Speaker 1: I thought that was weird that they that the play
- 23:52Speaker 1: by play announcer said that it looks like he's twenty
- 23:56Speaker 1: eight years old. This is the worst game that's ever
- 23:58Speaker 1: been played, Like okay, but you know, but but it
- 24:02Speaker 1: but it's not. I mean, like, yeah, there was some
- 24:05Speaker 1: there was just some odd plays on it. But but
- 24:08Speaker 1: it's from what perspective, you know, is a blocked field
- 24:11Speaker 1: goal a bad play? I mean, sure is if you're
- 24:15Speaker 1: if you're the if you're the team that's kicking the
- 24:17Speaker 1: field goal, But if if you're the team that's blocking it,
- 24:19Speaker 1: then you did a great job. So I mean, it
- 24:21Speaker 1: was it was. It was just a lot of plays
- 24:23Speaker 1: that happened in the game. I mean, did did Cavante
- 24:27Speaker 1: turpin And was that a great play? Yeah, it was
- 24:29Speaker 1: one of the greatest you've ever seen. But somebody had
- 24:31Speaker 1: a breakdown for Washington just like in any play, you know.
- 24:34Speaker 1: So so, yes, there were some. There was just a
- 24:37Speaker 1: lot of plays that happened in the game. There were
- 24:39Speaker 1: some that were really good, some that that were that
- 24:41Speaker 1: were not so good. It balances out. I don't think
- 24:43Speaker 1: it's the worst game that's ever been played in Special teams.
- 24:46Speaker 1: I thought there were some guys making plays on special teams.
- 24:50Speaker 6: Yeah, it really was. It was. It was just it
- 24:54Speaker 6: was just one of the stranger games because you wouldn't
- 24:56Speaker 6: see that that group of events all you know, that
- 25:00Speaker 6: many misses, blocks, you know, a return for a time.
- 25:04Speaker 6: You just wouldn't see that many things all in the
- 25:07Speaker 6: same game. You might not see that many over the
- 25:10Speaker 6: course of an entire season following just one team. Yeah,
- 25:15Speaker 6: you know, that was just really it was a Special
- 25:17Speaker 6: Teams just absolute buffet of of plays that you wouldn't expect.
- 25:25Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 25:26Speaker 6: So hey, I just instead of doing a player today,
- 25:29Speaker 6: I thought maybe you could give us an update of
- 25:31Speaker 6: the people I thought Brooks are not Brooks Cooks was
- 25:34Speaker 6: gonna play yesterday, you know, and Tyler Smith and the
- 25:39Speaker 6: President and just some of the people that you know
- 25:41Speaker 6: that that end up getting held out. Hey have a
- 25:44Speaker 6: great day, man, all.

- 27:41Speaker 1: Thursday against the Giants. Salvation Armies Annual Red Kettle Kickoff
- 27:46Speaker 1: halftime Show presents Landy Wilson in a special guest. You
- 27:50Speaker 1: can watch the Cowboys the Giants Laney Wilson this Thanksgiving
- 27:53Speaker 1: given today at Salvation ARMYUSA dot org. All right, the
- 27:58Speaker 1: last caller we had was Brian and Kansas City was
- 28:00Speaker 1: asking about some injuries. And I did think, and I
- 28:04Speaker 1: said it earlier a little bit about Tyler Smith. I
- 28:07Speaker 1: thought Tyler Smith had a chance to play. I looked
- 28:10Speaker 1: it was kind of a surprise when they said that
- 28:12Speaker 1: he wasn't really more about It's gonna be a tough
- 28:16Speaker 1: turnaround for him. I'll give him a little bit more rest.
- 28:18Speaker 1: He should be able to play this game coming up.
- 28:20Speaker 1: As for Zach Martin, what I was told was after
- 28:25Speaker 1: these two games which Washington Giants long break Monday night
- 28:30Speaker 1: game Cincinnati, I would imagine he plays for that game.
- 28:34Speaker 1: But interesting question would be who starts if it's just
- 28:39Speaker 1: one of them, And so if Tyler Smith does come
- 28:43Speaker 1: back play left guard, I think they stay with Hoffman.
- 28:47Speaker 1: I think Hoffman was going to get the start over TJ. Bass,
- 28:51Speaker 1: and so I think Hoffman would be would be the one. Now.
- 28:54Speaker 1: Not sure how they grade out and who played better
- 28:57Speaker 1: and all that kind of stuff, but you know this
- 28:59Speaker 1: is gonna be a matchup though. I mean Dexter Lawrence
- 29:02Speaker 1: in the middle. Uh, he's their best player I think
- 29:04Speaker 1: for the Giants. Again, I can't say it enough. There's
- 29:07Speaker 1: just something I have this weird feeling about this game.
- 29:10Speaker 1: Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe Tommy DeVito and the Giant they
- 29:13Speaker 1: just don't have the firepower.
- 29:15Speaker 7: Uh.
- 29:15Speaker 1: And if the Cowboys can get some more players back,
- 29:17Speaker 1: I mean I say that, like Tyler Smith could come back,
- 29:20Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks, you know that that would be that would
- 29:24Speaker 1: be a big, a big plus for them. You know,
- 29:27Speaker 1: remember it was it was Cooks that had one one
- 29:31Speaker 1: sixty maybe one seventy last year against the Giants. I
- 29:35Speaker 1: mean maybe not one seventy, but he had a huge
- 29:37Speaker 1: game against the Giants at home when he was really rolling.
- 29:41Speaker 1: They had no answer for him. So, you know, Ceedee Lamb.
- 29:45Speaker 1: Let me say this about Ceedee Lamb. He he had
- 29:48Speaker 1: ten catches yesterday, set an NFL record. I thought, I thought,
- 29:52Speaker 1: this is impressive. Set an NFL record for the most
- 29:54Speaker 1: consecutive games with four catches or more. And and you
- 29:58Speaker 1: can roll your eyes if you want, Oh, well, four catches,
- 30:01Speaker 1: that's nothing. Cool. Well he did it forty four times
- 30:03Speaker 1: in a row, and no one else has done that.
- 30:06Speaker 1: So if it was that cool, Jerry Rice would have
- 30:07Speaker 1: done it every time. You would have thought he would,
- 30:10Speaker 1: but they did. Michael Thomas from the Saints did it
- 30:13Speaker 1: forty three times and now CD forty four. Now he
- 30:17Speaker 1: did catch ten passes, also set a Cowboys record of
- 30:21Speaker 1: the most ten catch games in his career. Jason Witten
- 30:25Speaker 1: had eleven. Now that was his twelfth, so he's doing
- 30:29Speaker 1: a good job. Let me say this about CD last
- 30:31Speaker 1: the touchdown against Turpin had last week against Houston, safety's
- 30:37Speaker 1: rolling over to CD middles wide open slant touchdown. Look
- 30:42Speaker 1: at the touchdown that Schoonmaker caught against Washington. Right before
- 30:45Speaker 1: the snap, the safety just cheats over a little bit,
- 30:49Speaker 1: tries to give a different look. Who's he going to
- 30:51Speaker 1: try to cover? Of course, CD wide open. Not sure
- 30:54Speaker 1: what coverage they were doing there. Schoonmaker with a really
- 30:57Speaker 1: nice catch. That was a great a great threat, great read,
- 31:00Speaker 1: bye bye rush put it back there. I thought I
- 31:03Speaker 1: thought maybe he was gonna be too far, but I'm
- 31:05Speaker 1: really a nice catch by Schoonmaker for the score, the
- 31:10Speaker 1: first of five in the final six minutes. You thought
- 31:13Speaker 1: that would be the nail in the coffin there for
- 31:15Speaker 1: a touchdown. Twenty to nine is like, oh yeah, there's
- 31:17Speaker 1: gonna be four more touchdowns in this game. All right,
- 31:20Speaker 1: Let's go back to the phone line. Chris, who we got?
- 31:24Speaker 1: I can't, My thing's not pulling out. Who we got?
- 31:27Speaker 1: We got? Travis and Santa Travis what's that mean?
- 31:30Speaker 10: What's going on? Happy Victory Monday?
- 31:32Speaker 1: Yeah, how are you doing?
- 31:34Speaker 10: Doing pretty good? It's Thanksgiving week, so it's getting ready
- 31:38Speaker 10: for that. But it's nice. Nice to say Happy Victory Monday.
- 31:41Speaker 10: And I don't know if we can get Chris the
- 31:43Speaker 10: Fifty's on the phone, but if we could get the
- 31:46Speaker 10: Jimmy Johnson drop, I'm sure all the Cowboys fans in
- 31:48Speaker 10: the Cowboys Nation would appreciate that one. We haven't had
- 31:51Speaker 10: that one in a while.
- 31:52Speaker 1: Yeah, I think the only thing other than that, I've
- 31:55Speaker 1: got to say.
- 31:57Speaker 3: How about.
- 32:02Speaker 10: Awesome?
- 32:04Speaker 1: I haven't won a game since then.
- 32:06Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, So I don't know that's true, that's true,
- 32:12Speaker 10: but yeah, I was so. I'm sure everyone appreciated that.
- 32:14Speaker 10: So let that play. That was good. I wanted to
- 32:17Speaker 10: hit you kind of hit one of the I guess
- 32:19Speaker 10: there's three years that I want to talk about one.
- 32:21Speaker 10: Obviously we got talked about. I still know what I watched, Nick,
- 32:23Speaker 10: and I'm sure you may have said something like that
- 32:25Speaker 10: already because I missed the first half of the show.
- 32:27Speaker 10: I still know what I watched for that game. But
- 32:29Speaker 10: it was fun, I know that, and I'm glad they won.
- 32:32Speaker 10: So but Turpin. I've been I've been saying this with people,
- 32:37Speaker 10: like I know he's and I wonder he's a special
- 32:41Speaker 10: team stand out, right. I mean he's a Pro Bowl
- 32:43Speaker 10: special team guy. We know that. But I wonder Nick
- 32:45Speaker 10: at some point if some people's opinion of him gets
- 32:48Speaker 10: clouded because of the special team stuff. But I really think,
- 32:51Speaker 10: and I know this is future stuff, but so you
- 32:53Speaker 10: can just gloss over it. But I think the next
- 32:55Speaker 10: person that comes in here, like, I think they've got
- 32:57Speaker 10: to make him. I think two point three targets a
- 32:59Speaker 10: game for him is just not enough. With his with
- 33:02Speaker 10: what he can do, like his that that game changing speed.
- 33:05Speaker 10: He's kind of the guy you've been asking for for years,
- 33:07Speaker 10: you know, I take a top off of defense, Like
- 33:09Speaker 10: I just feel like, uh, he's a guy that needs
- 33:11Speaker 10: to be featured more going forward. I was very happy,
- 33:16Speaker 10: and I think one of the callers, I think it
- 33:17Speaker 10: was uh I get his name from from Arizona, when
- 33:19Speaker 10: he was talking about like what was different, I gotta
- 33:22Speaker 10: say the protection was different, Like the amount of time.
- 33:26Speaker 10: I mean Greg Golsen mentioned it several times about like
- 33:29Speaker 10: Washington has a pretty good front and they were not
- 33:30Speaker 10: getting pressure. So shout out to brock Hoffman for stepping
- 33:35Speaker 10: in there and being ready to go right. That's the thing.
- 33:38Speaker 10: And TJ. Bass had a good game and Awesome look
- 33:41Speaker 10: at they had a little rotation going, but Awesome looked
- 33:43Speaker 10: good when he was in there. So, uh, the offensive line,
- 33:48Speaker 10: I was very surprised at how well they protected. So
- 33:51Speaker 10: that and then the last thing, I'll let you go
- 33:53Speaker 10: and see which one you want to hit on. But
- 33:55Speaker 10: scoon Maker, I think we talked with this on my
- 33:57Speaker 10: last call is I'm obviously again everyone knows I'm the
- 34:01Speaker 10: Michian guy, but I think confidence Nick plays a big
- 34:03Speaker 10: part in these guys. And he had that pretty good
- 34:06Speaker 10: game last week which kind of the busting the guys
- 34:09Speaker 10: with Jake out and I mentioned, you know, maybe he
- 34:11Speaker 10: could build on that, and now that he's got a touchdown,
- 34:13Speaker 10: even I'm gonna put Dylan under the bus for a seconds,
- 34:16Speaker 10: hopefully Dylan with them. But Dylan in the chat was like,
- 34:18Speaker 10: I thought he was going to drop that ball, and
- 34:19Speaker 10: I was like, well, you know that that might have been,
- 34:22Speaker 10: but I think that confidence now Nick just starts, you know,
- 34:24Speaker 10: confidence is a big thing, and if he has that confidence,
- 34:26Speaker 10: he catches that ball. So I just wanted to throw
- 34:28Speaker 10: that out there and see what you thought and hopefully
- 34:31Speaker 10: you guys have a great Thanksgiving week, a good one.
- 34:34Speaker 1: All right, thank you. You know, I agree, And that's
- 34:37Speaker 1: one of those you know, we have a we don't
- 34:39Speaker 1: have a great view in the press box. It's low
- 34:41Speaker 1: and as we're in the corner, end zone, corner, so
- 34:43Speaker 1: when when everything's away from us, it's hard to see anything.
- 34:46Speaker 1: But when they're coming right there and that end zone,
- 34:49Speaker 1: you can you know, and which they were on the
- 34:51Speaker 1: the Scoon Maker touchdown, you got a really good view.
- 34:54Speaker 1: I thought he was gonna I thought. I didn't think
- 34:56Speaker 1: he was going to get there. I didn't know if
- 34:57Speaker 1: he was good. I didn't think he was going to
- 34:59Speaker 1: be able to get to that ball. And it wasn't
- 35:01Speaker 1: an easy catch. I mean usually you want to catch
- 35:04Speaker 1: it over your shoulder. That one seemed like it had
- 35:07Speaker 1: some Willie Mays to it. I mean it seemed like
- 35:09Speaker 1: it was kind of right over him. Made a really nice,
- 35:12Speaker 1: nice play. Uh, we just don't see that out of him.
- 35:15Speaker 1: We see him not being as agile. But yeah, confidence
- 35:21Speaker 1: is definitely big there. And you know, if if he
- 35:24Speaker 1: can Ferguson could come back and these two guys, and
- 35:27Speaker 1: you know, I think span Ford has done a really
- 35:29Speaker 1: nice job too. You know, I'm starting to like his
- 35:32Speaker 1: game a lot more confidence as well. You're right when
- 35:36Speaker 1: you say that about Turpin. I believe that Turpin has
- 35:41Speaker 1: to also take that next level too. I mean, Turpin
- 35:45Speaker 1: catch the ball on a kick return, go, you know,
- 35:50Speaker 1: and use your speed on offense. It's been a little
- 35:53Speaker 1: bit different. It's not just about it's not just the coaches. Okay,
- 35:57Speaker 1: he's got to make sure he's more system as well.
- 36:02Speaker 1: Some of the packages, some of the roles. He's got
- 36:04Speaker 1: to learn different positions because they're playing him in different spots.
- 36:08Speaker 1: He's got to catch the football too. I mean, there's
- 36:11Speaker 1: been some times that they throw them the ball. He's
- 36:13Speaker 1: got to be able to catch it. But you're right,
- 36:17Speaker 1: they've got to get creative and figure out ways to
- 36:19Speaker 1: get the ball in his hands. He's just too dangerous.
- 36:21Speaker 1: He's just too dangerous. And even if he's a decoy,
- 36:26Speaker 1: his speed is a weapon. His speed on the outside.
- 36:29Speaker 1: Run him deep, just show that safety. Hello, I'm here,
- 36:34Speaker 1: so you better, you better back off. What is that
- 36:36Speaker 1: going to do for Ferguson over the middle? Or CD
- 36:39Speaker 1: or any of these guys. Use that speed to your advantage.
- 36:42Speaker 1: When Deon Sanders played in nineteen ninety six at wide receiver,
- 36:45Speaker 1: he scared those guys to death because of his speed,
- 36:48Speaker 1: you know, so sometimes not even throwing him the ball
- 36:52Speaker 1: that speeds out there. Everyone knows it now and they
- 36:54Speaker 1: know he could run. That speeds out there. It can
- 36:57Speaker 1: open up things for other people. All right, let's go
- 37:00Speaker 1: to Dylan in Northport, Florida.
- 37:03Speaker 12: Hey, Nick, Yeah, I did think Scoomaker was going to
- 37:05Speaker 12: drop that ball because it just it would have made
- 37:06Speaker 12: so much sense from to do with the way the
- 37:08Speaker 12: game had been going to the blockfield goal, miss field goal.
- 37:11Speaker 12: You know, they had a first and five at one point,
- 37:13Speaker 12: runn a reverse after getting four and first down, they
- 37:15Speaker 12: lose yards, they have a third down drop. It just
- 37:17Speaker 12: would have made too much sense with the way that
- 37:18Speaker 12: game and the season had been going for Schoomaker to
- 37:21Speaker 12: drop it, and not even drop it just from him
- 37:23Speaker 12: being a you know, not good or whatever. But just
- 37:25Speaker 12: the ball was just a little bit far out there, right,
- 37:27Speaker 12: I thought it was in the gloss of his fingertips.
- 37:28Speaker 6: You know.
- 37:29Speaker 12: So how many times in one game can you say
- 37:33Speaker 12: what the hell is going on here? I mean in
- 37:36Speaker 12: the last six minutes, I think it was the last
- 37:39Speaker 12: five and a half minutes. Thirty eight points score. Yeah,
- 37:41Speaker 12: that's got to be some sort of record.
- 37:43Speaker 1: It's gotta be something, right, thirty eight points and five
- 37:45Speaker 1: and a half minutes.
- 37:47Speaker 12: Yeah, yeah, five, I mean wow.
- 37:49Speaker 1: A field goal going for two. There was a missed
- 37:53Speaker 1: extra point in there. I don't know if you if
- 37:55Speaker 1: you caught that, but Washington did miss an extra point.
- 37:58Speaker 1: I'm kidding, but yeah, I mean thirty thirty eight points. Unbelievable.
- 38:03Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean unreal.
- 38:05Speaker 12: That b button, that turping hit on that down the
- 38:07Speaker 12: pump return or kick return, just absolutely outstanding. I've never
- 38:11Speaker 12: seen a spin move like that in my life, the
- 38:12Speaker 12: way he I don't know if I've ever seen The
- 38:14Speaker 12: Hangover man, but when they have you ever seen The
- 38:16Speaker 12: Hangover to the movie?
- 38:18Speaker 1: Not today, bro, not today?
- 38:20Speaker 12: But you've seen it?
- 38:21Speaker 1: Yeah? Not today? It's ear that's it. But I'm yes, yes,
- 38:27Speaker 1: I've seen. It's one of the it's one of the
- 38:28Speaker 1: best of all time. It's a top five all time movie.
- 38:31Speaker 1: It's it's outstanding. Yes, Well, where are we going from?
- 38:34Speaker 12: Well, I've called in twice before and I struck out
- 38:36Speaker 12: both times in my references. So I'm glad this one's
- 38:38Speaker 12: gonna hit. But when Zach allison Akis is going down
- 38:41Speaker 12: the escalator to count the cards and he gets there
- 38:43Speaker 12: and he starts counting, and you see the mask and
- 38:45Speaker 12: screening from.
- 38:45Speaker 8: His face track, that was terurfing.
- 38:47Speaker 12: You can see him slowly calculating when do I hit
- 38:49Speaker 12: the B button now? And then you know go. That
- 38:52Speaker 12: was him and that was the most amazing spin move
- 38:54Speaker 12: I've ever witnessed in my life.
- 38:55Speaker 1: Yeah, I wouldn't have gone there with the calculations and
- 38:58Speaker 1: all that. I I you know, let's don't put that
- 39:01Speaker 1: on him here. I don't think he's counting cards. I
- 39:03Speaker 1: think I think he just got the ball. And it
- 39:04Speaker 1: was just to me. Now, you gotta remember, like my
- 39:08Speaker 1: son is nine years old. He is he cannot wait
- 39:11Speaker 1: for the movie Sonic the Hedgehog three to come out,
- 39:13Speaker 1: I mean all the time. And that's what it seemed
- 39:16Speaker 1: like to me, was that kind of just speed of
- 39:18Speaker 1: just like slow slow then spin and I mean you
- 39:21Speaker 1: gotta have some noise, like I mean, what was going
- 39:25Speaker 1: on here? I mean John Madden would have loved that.
- 39:27Speaker 12: I think, uh.
- 39:30Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. That's what it was. Yeah, now I will
- 39:32Speaker 1: say that you said that about Berman. I did have one.
- 39:35Speaker 1: One caller asked about that if I had an outburst
- 39:37Speaker 1: in the press box. I did have one three four
- 39:41Speaker 1: weeks ago. Whenever Lipkey it was Pittsburgh. Lipkey went for
- 39:45Speaker 1: like twenty yards. He caught a screen. He was going.
- 39:48Speaker 1: Every time Lipkey gets the ball, I feel like like
- 39:51Speaker 1: when Mike Alstott used to get it and he'll be
- 39:53Speaker 1: rumbling and uh and Berman would be like, I did
- 39:57Speaker 1: that in the press box. I don't think anyone saw
- 39:59Speaker 1: h heard that. It was me, but yeah, so sometimes Albert,
- 40:03Speaker 1: but yeah, you gotta that that has to have some
- 40:05Speaker 1: sound effects there, just something like whoop, turpy Turpey speeds. Yeah,
- 40:09Speaker 1: that's what Josh says. That's what it was.
- 40:11Speaker 12: Tur Turkey speed. Now he's like Sonic. He's a little
- 40:14Speaker 12: better shape than Zach Alfanakis too, So maybe I missed
- 40:16Speaker 12: there too, but a little yeah, just to get a
- 40:20Speaker 12: little bit of philosophical here, and then I'll let you
- 40:22Speaker 12: go ucause I know I'm sure you're run up against
- 40:23Speaker 12: the clacker.
- 40:24Speaker 7: I got people call.
- 40:26Speaker 12: There's been a cloud over this team since January what
- 40:29Speaker 12: was the fourteenth against Screen Bay, Right, Yeah, it's like
- 40:32Speaker 12: there's demons chasing them. And from a fan standpoint, definitely,
- 40:36Speaker 12: I don't know if that hass a shadow over these
- 40:39Speaker 12: players or what, but it just seems like everything's been
- 40:41Speaker 12: wrong since then, from ownership, coaching, fans, just everything's been
- 40:46Speaker 12: wrong and that you haven't really had like a signature
- 40:49Speaker 12: win this year where it's like, Wow, it's time to
- 40:52Speaker 12: like move on and kind of exercise these demons. And
- 40:54Speaker 12: I think this is a great first step, not just
- 40:55Speaker 12: for twenty twenty four, but for this core group that's
- 40:58Speaker 12: going to stick around in twenty twenty five and beyond.
- 41:00Speaker 12: This is I think it's a great first step to
- 41:01Speaker 12: really kind of moving on from that that ghost that
- 41:05Speaker 12: seems to have been chasing them this whole season. So
- 41:07Speaker 12: I want to get your thoughts on that, man, and listen.
- 41:09Speaker 12: If I don't call again this week, I'm going to
- 41:11Speaker 12: try to call Wednesday if you're there. But I have
- 41:13Speaker 12: a happy thanks sheh having to you and your family
- 41:14Speaker 12: and and take it easy all right with you, Chris.
- 41:16Speaker 1: Appreciate it. Thank you so much. You know, I don't
- 41:19Speaker 1: know about chasing the ghosts, and that's I hear what
- 41:23Speaker 1: you're saying. What I say is is is this is
- 41:29Speaker 1: the epitome of what you know what Brian brought us
- 41:32Speaker 1: this famous line that he always says, the NFL is
- 41:35Speaker 1: a strange lady. She's weird, she does weird things. Well,
- 41:40Speaker 1: it couldn't have been stranger in that game. And I
- 41:43Speaker 1: just think that's kind of what happens. It's just the
- 41:45Speaker 1: ebbs and the flows of the game. You know. I
- 41:49Speaker 1: don't know if there's a curse against the Cowboys. I
- 41:52Speaker 1: don't believe in all that. I really don't. I just
- 41:54Speaker 1: I think that they haven't been good enough. They just
- 41:56Speaker 1: haven't been good enough. They were good to get to
- 41:58Speaker 1: the playoffs. They were good to get there. They haven't
- 42:01Speaker 1: but but the matchups weren't good in the playoffs and
- 42:04Speaker 1: they're not. They weren't as complete as we thought, and
- 42:08Speaker 1: so that's kind of been the problem of this team.
- 42:11Speaker 1: They're just not complete. Now we were talking about complete
- 42:15Speaker 1: games and complete you know, seasons, and from last year
- 42:20Speaker 1: this year, they just need to complete a drive. How
- 42:23Speaker 1: many times have we seen the first drive of the
- 42:25Speaker 1: games boom boom, boom, boom boom, and then oh incomplete,
- 42:28Speaker 1: bad throw bad play, field goal block, and then you're
- 42:32Speaker 1: you know, and that's just kind of been the story
- 42:34Speaker 1: of the game. So they were able to complete drives,
- 42:37Speaker 1: pretty much have a complete game, and they got the win.
- 42:41Speaker 1: But now start stacking stack these together. Now the schedule.
- 42:46Speaker 1: I said this when the schedule came out. Just keep
- 42:48Speaker 1: your head above water, and there's gonna be a time
- 42:52Speaker 1: where you should start stacking some wins. I thought Atlanta, Philly, Houston.
- 42:56Speaker 1: I thought they'd have a chance to win. You know,
- 42:58Speaker 1: this was before. This is way back when he thought
- 43:00Speaker 1: they would be a lot healthier. But this stretch right here,
- 43:03Speaker 1: Washington Giants, Bengals, Panthers, Bucks, Yeah, take it. You gotta
- 43:09Speaker 1: take it right here. I mean, and start getting consistent,
- 43:13Speaker 1: start playing, Start leaning on that defense. I think the
- 43:16Speaker 1: defense you can lean on, and then I think they
- 43:19Speaker 1: have a chance to do something. Let go to quick
- 43:21Speaker 1: break here, We're gonna go to break Cowboys storyline. Come

- 44:49Speaker 1: All right, let's go to Zach in Atlanta. Zach, you
- 44:53Speaker 1: been holding what's up man?
- 44:55Speaker 9: Nick?
- 44:56Speaker 7: A win is a win is a win, and that's
- 44:59Speaker 7: why we play the game and watch the games, right right.
- 45:02Speaker 1: I haven't haven't been able to say that since uh.
- 45:06Speaker 12: October, yeah, October.
- 45:10Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 45:10Speaker 7: It feels good, man, it feels really good and a
- 45:13Speaker 7: fun win at that. It feels like the rivalry has
- 45:17Speaker 7: got some juice again with the Commanders because obviously they're young,
- 45:20Speaker 7: they're still putting it together, but it looks like they're
- 45:23Speaker 7: going to be pretty good in the next couple of years.
- 45:27Speaker 1: Solid.
- 45:28Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, And so I mean usually the past ten
- 45:33Speaker 7: ten or so years, the schedule comes out and the
- 45:35Speaker 7: Commanders that kind of chalk up to a win easily.
- 45:40Speaker 7: It's just because they have they've been irrelevant. But uh,
- 45:43Speaker 7: yeah that was Let.
- 45:45Speaker 1: Me stop you here. The Cowboys have been better than
- 45:48Speaker 1: Washington for those every time you've done it, because they've
- 45:50Speaker 1: been a better football team. And I'm telling you, from
- 45:53Speaker 1: what I saw, nothing has changed, nothing has changed. Yeah,
- 45:56Speaker 1: that's the truth. Look at the schedule they've played, and
- 46:00Speaker 1: look at the schedule of the Cowboys have played. It's
- 46:02Speaker 1: starting to even out a little bit, like and they're
- 46:05Speaker 1: starting to get figured out. That offensive coordinator's he gets
- 46:08Speaker 1: figured out. Okay, suppsed to be honest about that, and
- 46:13Speaker 1: they've kind of figured out how to play Jay and
- 46:14Speaker 1: Daniels a little bit. I still think he's a great player,
- 46:17Speaker 1: But right now, I mean, I don't think Washington's a
- 46:19Speaker 1: better team than the Cowboy They weren't yesterday. They weren't
- 46:21Speaker 1: at all.
- 46:22Speaker 7: So anyway, No, definitely not so good to know that
- 46:26Speaker 7: we still have a little brother. Yeah, even though they're
- 46:30Speaker 7: a little fistier this year. But yeah, man, I so
- 46:34Speaker 7: as we think about what's remaining in front of us
- 46:38Speaker 7: and what we want to see, you know, and draft
- 46:41Speaker 7: status comes spring, whatever that looks like. Man, our last
- 46:45Speaker 7: two drafts so far really haven't been amazing. And so
- 46:51Speaker 7: if the team is not good and doesn't show anything,
- 46:55Speaker 7: and then we're counting on this coming draft to kind
- 46:58Speaker 7: of rescue everything in one season, I mean, we're kind
- 47:01Speaker 7: of behind the whole two drafts. If our players aren't
- 47:05Speaker 7: showing up, we don't see anything from Massie, some of
- 47:08Speaker 7: the younger guys but but the past couple of weeks,
- 47:12Speaker 7: I've seen some targeted tape on Mazzi and other guys. Obviously,
- 47:16Speaker 7: Overshown is just a Tasmanian devil is the man. I mean,
- 47:23Speaker 7: we got to keep him. But I think if if
- 47:25Speaker 7: if our down roster guys, they're not world beaters, but
- 47:28Speaker 7: all of our depth hemorrhaged in the off season to Washington, right,
- 47:33Speaker 7: and so we just need to have the roster built
- 47:36Speaker 7: out a little bit, show some promise, schoon maker is
- 47:40Speaker 7: making the most of his opportunities, and then yeah, you know,
- 47:45Speaker 7: we see the past couple of drafts start to show
- 47:49Speaker 7: some life. Whatever our draft status is in the spring,
- 47:52Speaker 7: if it's a top five or top twenty pick, whatever,
- 47:57Speaker 7: you know, we just have to see some life. And
