- 0:08Speaker 1: Cowboys.
- 0:11Speaker 2: This is Cowboys Storyline presented by Gillette, the official shave
- 0:17Speaker 2: of the Dallas Cowboys.
- 0:19Speaker 1: Here's Nick Eatman. Good morning, Welcome to the Cowboys Storyline.
- 0:26Speaker 1: It is Thursday, September eighteenth. I'm Nick Heatman. Let's talk
- 0:31Speaker 1: cowboys and bears. That's what we're gonna do here. Uh,
- 0:35Speaker 1: We're gonna get right to the phone lines. I mean,
- 0:36Speaker 1: I'm gonna try to get as many calls as we can.
- 0:38Speaker 1: You guys know the number one eight eight eight A
- 0:41Speaker 1: five five two two nine seven. I believe that's the number. Yeah,
- 0:46Speaker 1: send us some text line questions as well. Eight one
- 0:49Speaker 1: seven two nine zero three two nine eight. We're starting
- 0:51Speaker 1: to hit those back again as well. All right, let's
- 0:55Speaker 1: go to a place that I've been several times before,
- 0:58Speaker 1: lived there for a few years. Is how about Dylan
- 1:01Speaker 1: and Wichita Falls, Texas?
- 1:04Speaker 3: Hey, Nick, first time caller. Hopefully I can get some
- 1:07Speaker 3: calls to him. Going forward? Quick today we go, quick
- 1:13Speaker 3: question going forward. I was reading an article last night
- 1:17Speaker 3: about Matt Eberslus potentially being on the hot seat after
- 1:21Speaker 3: two weeks. I can't remember who wrote the article. It
- 1:24Speaker 3: was based upon Shoddy's pressor, but I don't know. I
- 1:27Speaker 3: think that's a little unfair, just based on the injuries
- 1:29Speaker 3: we've had, and then you know the curveball of Mic
- 1:32Speaker 3: and everything, and I just think we need to give him.
- 1:34Speaker 3: I just give it time to develop, give him some
- 1:36Speaker 3: more time. And I know the Giants Nam was a
- 1:38Speaker 3: disaster for him, but I think going forward, you know,
- 1:41Speaker 3: I mean, there's a lot of stuff to look forward
- 1:42Speaker 3: to coming up. That's all I got for you today.
- 1:44Speaker 1: Make sure all right, thanks, Dylan's going to talk to
- 1:48Speaker 1: you about Wichstra Falls. What's going on there. Always good
- 1:52Speaker 1: to have first time caller to start the show, especially
- 1:54Speaker 1: a place with wich Straw Falls. Obviously you guys know,
- 1:56Speaker 1: or you should know. I'm sure I've told this soveral
- 2:00Speaker 1: times my story there, coming from went to college there
- 2:03Speaker 1: five years. Yes, I was on the five year plan,
- 2:05Speaker 1: but I'm glad it was because they helped me get
- 2:08Speaker 1: this job with the Cowboys and never looked back, except
- 2:12Speaker 1: for the times that have been back there several times.
- 2:15Speaker 1: Hot seat, Matt Eberflus, that's too early, and I'm not
- 2:21Speaker 1: trying to say that you know, we do it differently
- 2:26Speaker 1: than other people or this media person. I don't like
- 2:28Speaker 1: doing that media on media crime stuff because everyone kind
- 2:31Speaker 1: of does their own thing and everyone has their own
- 2:33Speaker 1: agenda obviously, But you know, call articles like that about
- 2:40Speaker 1: hot seat. You know, there's a lot of stuff out there.
- 2:42Speaker 1: There's a lot of bloggers, a lot of things like
- 2:44Speaker 1: that where people can say whatever they want and they're
- 2:46Speaker 1: not here. That's the thing. They're not walking around, They're
- 2:49Speaker 1: not going to that person that wrote wrote that I
- 2:51Speaker 1: doubt will be at Matt Eberflus's press conference today when
- 2:55Speaker 1: the coordinators talk. I just doubt it. So you got
- 2:58Speaker 1: to remember, you know who, who are these people and
- 3:01Speaker 1: are they around all the time? And the only reason
- 3:04Speaker 1: I say that, I'm not saying that people are better
- 3:06Speaker 1: than others. But it's a different ballgame when you're here
- 3:09Speaker 1: walking around and you ask the question the Shadi or
- 3:12Speaker 1: you you asked Ibra Flus a question, or your ship
- 3:15Speaker 1: for us? How about sharing you know, an airplane or
- 3:19Speaker 1: buses with some of these guys. So it's a different
- 3:22Speaker 1: game when you're talking the talk that you that you
- 3:25Speaker 1: say certain statements, certain things, and you really don't have
- 3:30Speaker 1: to back it up. So I don't believe any coaches
- 3:34Speaker 1: on the hot seat here. I don't think ibra Flus
- 3:37Speaker 1: is on the hot seat for the Giants for that game,
- 3:41Speaker 1: you know, going the way it did. I do think
- 3:43Speaker 1: games take on a life of their own and you know,
- 3:47Speaker 1: go up to the meadowlands win. Is this game when
- 3:49Speaker 1: the Cowboys play the Giants again, last game of the
- 3:52Speaker 1: year January third or fourth, it'll be like fourteen to
- 3:58Speaker 1: ten or something like that. I mean, whether will probably
- 4:00Speaker 1: play a factor there, and it'll be tough to move
- 4:02Speaker 1: the ball, but you know, it'll just it could be
- 4:04Speaker 1: a different game. So I wouldn't worry about that so much.
- 4:08Speaker 1: But but yeah, I mean, I agree. I agree with
- 4:10Speaker 1: the caller Joan. I agree with that that there's been
- 4:12Speaker 1: Kurt balls here. I I agree that, you know, injuries
- 4:14Speaker 1: have been have been tough, especially with you know, dorn
- 4:17Speaker 1: Bland's injury. So let's let's see he's been a good
- 4:21Speaker 1: coordinator everywhere he's been. Let's let's give it more than
- 4:24Speaker 1: two games. How about that? Daveyon and Illinois Davion? What's up?
- 4:29Speaker 4: But a dude, my guy, what's up up?
- 4:31Speaker 1: Nick? How you doing doing good?
- 4:34Speaker 4: Doing well, doing good man. I want to say thank
- 4:38Speaker 4: you very much for the shirt. I got it the
- 4:41Speaker 4: other day. I really, I really appreciate that and looking
- 4:43Speaker 4: out for looking out for little me Illinois.
- 4:47Speaker 1: Hey, I had one shirt left and I was like,
- 4:51Speaker 1: you know what I'm gonna I'm gonna give it to
- 4:53Speaker 1: a guy that that made the trip out there to
- 4:55Speaker 1: ox and Aard And you weren't on the team the
- 4:57Speaker 1: first time, but you probably should have been. You you
- 5:00Speaker 1: know what I mean. So, uh, it's like I'll throw
- 5:02Speaker 1: it out there. It's a great shirt and so but
- 5:05Speaker 1: I will say this, I do think, especially with the
- 5:08Speaker 1: Gillette now in the picture, I think we're gonna go
- 5:11Speaker 1: back to shirts for the third year. Got to those
- 5:14Speaker 1: shirts are too good, too comfortable. Everybody wants one. Yeti's
- 5:17Speaker 1: are great. Yetie, They're great. But I think we got
- 5:20Speaker 1: to go back to shirts. That's what I believe.
- 5:22Speaker 4: Oh yeah, Yea is with me at work every day,
- 5:25Speaker 4: and I think it's gonna prop with my game at
- 5:27Speaker 4: right here.
- 5:27Speaker 1: But but if you had two Yeties, three Yeties every year,
- 5:30Speaker 1: I mean like, okay, you know, because because they laugh,
- 5:33Speaker 1: it's so great about them, but shirts you need more
- 5:35Speaker 1: than one so that's what I'm thinking. All right, what
- 5:38Speaker 1: do you got David on are you going to the game?
- 5:41Speaker 4: Uh no, no, no, no, I gotta I gotta do a
- 5:46Speaker 4: Hugby duty this weekend. So now I won't bete to
- 5:48Speaker 4: get up there and hang out. I wanted to, though,
- 5:51Speaker 4: but I ain't gonna bed.
- 5:53Speaker 1: Yeah, well, when you made the trip to Oxnard, you
- 5:55Speaker 1: know it's that was a big one. I mean, that's
- 5:58Speaker 1: that's big. I get it. It's hard to do multiple
- 6:00Speaker 1: trips like that. All right, what do you Yeah?
- 6:04Speaker 4: And my wife and my wife claims that she's a
- 6:05Speaker 4: barrass fan, but she's not. But it's hilarious tals about it.
- 6:11Speaker 4: But no, I guess a couple of questions I was
- 6:14Speaker 4: gonna ask, what do you think is a good stat
- 6:16Speaker 4: line for Clowny this week? H And also the overreaction
- 6:24Speaker 4: of for two games against like easy Blues. I think
- 6:30Speaker 4: we need just you know, kind of kind of chill
- 6:33Speaker 4: for just a little bit and lets you let's look
- 6:35Speaker 4: cook a little bit. I think we I think we
- 6:37Speaker 4: owned something. I think fancy you really understand that, you know,
- 6:41Speaker 4: kind of give more of a sample side for you
- 6:43Speaker 4: start reading me joking on everything. It makes more sense
- 6:46Speaker 4: to kind of just let things play out just a
- 6:48Speaker 4: little bit before we be like, get rid of this guy,
- 6:50Speaker 4: do this, do that. But I do want to see blue.
- 6:53Speaker 4: But other than that, you know, that's kind of it's
- 6:55Speaker 4: kind of just let's love him cook for a little bit.
- 6:58Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, I agree with that. Okay, davey On, thanks,
- 7:04Speaker 1: thank you.
- 7:04Speaker 4: For the yeah we got. Also, we've got a space
- 7:06Speaker 4: tonight if everybody want to jump on and get out
- 7:09Speaker 4: of it. Okay, we'll be up every red road.
- 7:12Speaker 1: All right. That's on Twitter X. The Cowboys storyliners. I
- 7:19Speaker 1: think it's about I think I heard them say eight
- 7:21Speaker 1: o'clock a central time.
- 7:22Speaker 5: Uh.
- 7:23Speaker 1: But they're on it for a while, so I mean
- 7:24Speaker 1: just about any any time zone you want, it hits
- 7:28Speaker 1: them all, so you can basically you can safely say
- 7:31Speaker 1: about nine o'clock wherever you are, they'll be going, so
- 7:36Speaker 1: one way or another. I agree. I agree, dave On.
- 7:39Speaker 1: I mean with with a lot of that stuff about
- 7:41Speaker 1: you know, chilling out, but I mean, you know, you
- 7:44Speaker 1: wait so long in the off season to get to
- 7:47Speaker 1: the football season, you know, and you'll talk about the game,
- 7:50Speaker 1: and the schedule comes out and every single game is
- 7:52Speaker 1: and now you get here and they are big. I mean,
- 7:55Speaker 1: every every game is big. So I kind of I
- 7:57Speaker 1: understand where you have to have some patience, but at
- 8:00Speaker 1: the same time, you want you want to see it all.
- 8:01Speaker 1: You want to see results. And you asked about clowning
- 8:05Speaker 1: a good stat line. I don't know, two tackles one
- 8:11Speaker 1: maybe one tackle for loss and a pressure or two.
- 8:15Speaker 1: I mean, I'm you know whatever. I mean, just just
- 8:19Speaker 1: make a difference. Be disruptive. I mean it's easy to say,
- 8:22Speaker 1: well one sact. I'm this is different. I mean, this
- 8:25Speaker 1: isn't He's not replacing he said it. I mean not
- 8:27Speaker 1: replacing Mike Parsons. I mean that's not that's not what
- 8:31Speaker 1: his job is. But he's he's going to bring some
- 8:33Speaker 1: stability to the line. And what I think is that
- 8:36Speaker 1: I think he's going to be one of the more
- 8:38Speaker 1: complete defensive ends that you have, one that that can
- 8:43Speaker 1: can rush, can get to the quarterback, is also going
- 8:46Speaker 1: to be able to to hold his own and and
- 8:49Speaker 1: stop the run. So maybe one of your complete defensive ends.
- 8:52Speaker 1: But you know, just be disruptive and and and and
- 8:54Speaker 1: make some plays when they're there, and don't be the
- 8:56Speaker 1: weak link and things like that, and then as time
- 8:59Speaker 1: goes on, then I think you maybe can expect a
- 9:01Speaker 1: little bit more. But he's a guy that's been you know,
- 9:03Speaker 1: five six sacks every everywhere he goes, I mean, in
- 9:06Speaker 1: different schemes, and he's done really well, you know, And
- 9:10Speaker 1: so that's it's five or six sacks is solid. But
- 9:15Speaker 1: you hope that doesn't lead the team. But it looks
- 9:18Speaker 1: like it, you know, that's probably what it's going to
- 9:21Speaker 1: be unless someone just really emerges here. All right, let's
- 9:24Speaker 1: go to Brian in Kansas City.
- 9:26Speaker 6: Good morning, mister Evan.
- 9:28Speaker 1: Hey Brian, how are you?
- 9:29Speaker 6: I'm really good, sir, how are you great?
- 9:32Speaker 7: Hey?
- 9:32Speaker 6: Nice man? You know, I was thinking two things. One,
- 9:38Speaker 6: just curious and uh, if you have any updates for
- 9:42Speaker 6: us on on the injuries people that are, you know, borderline,
- 9:45Speaker 6: might you know, might play this week and that kind
- 9:48Speaker 6: of thing. And then for uh, and I'll give my
- 9:52Speaker 6: prediction real quick. I don't have a great feeling about
- 9:55Speaker 6: this game. I'm hoping we're gonna pull it out. I'm
- 9:59Speaker 6: gonna say twenty seven twenty let's say twenty seven to
- 10:03Speaker 6: twenty say that's that that that That's.
- 10:06Speaker 8: What I'm calling.
- 10:06Speaker 6: I think we're gonna pull it out. I think we're
- 10:08Speaker 6: I think it's gonna be a rough game, though, Yeah,
- 10:11Speaker 6: I think it's gonna be a rough game. Hey, you know,
- 10:14Speaker 6: we can all go visit the Windy City and then
- 10:16Speaker 6: I've been to Chicago. Actually, Navy, the Navy boot camp
- 10:21Speaker 6: is up there in Great Lakes and common to go
- 10:25Speaker 6: to the Navy Pier kind of towards the end of that,
- 10:28Speaker 6: and in Chicago. But what we can't do is go
- 10:32Speaker 6: to the press box and in Soldier Field and have
- 10:37Speaker 6: that experience. So maybe you just tell us a little
- 10:39Speaker 6: bit about what your experience is up there, brother, and
- 10:42Speaker 6: I'll listen to that one off air.
- 10:44Speaker 1: Okay, thank you man. I'm trying to think stories in Chicago.
- 10:52Speaker 1: You know, we just haven't gone a ton. I mean,
- 10:55Speaker 1: I got I've gone some two thousand and seven, maybe
- 10:58Speaker 1: two thousand and twelve, thirteen, sixteen, maybe, but I don't
- 11:08Speaker 1: remember a lot of things that now. The thing about
- 11:10Speaker 1: the press box, you know, it's an okay press box,
- 11:15Speaker 1: it's not really that, not much to it. However, in
- 11:19Speaker 1: twenty thirteen, when it's eight degrees or six degrees or
- 11:23Speaker 1: whatever it is, it's really nice. It's nice to be
- 11:27Speaker 1: in there. It's nice and warm, you know, as opposed
- 11:29Speaker 1: to the And I say that because you know, I
- 11:32Speaker 1: know some people that are actually on the field during
- 11:35Speaker 1: the game. I know one in particular. He does a
- 11:39Speaker 1: great job and he you know, he's the one that
- 11:44Speaker 1: knows if it's going to rain on Sunday and how
- 11:46Speaker 1: cold it's going to be and all that me it's
- 11:48Speaker 1: going to be seventy two degrees in the press box.
- 11:50Speaker 1: And I think Chris would chime in there. I can't
- 11:55Speaker 1: think of many stories, but really for me now in Chicago,
- 12:00Speaker 1: just in Chicago in general, I might be missing something,
- 12:02Speaker 1: but I mean it's a cool It's a cool place.
- 12:08Speaker 1: I wish no I like this, you know, being there,
- 12:12Speaker 1: you know earlier in the season where the weather is
- 12:15Speaker 1: you know, gonna be really nice, and uh, it's a
- 12:18Speaker 1: city I would like to kind of go and explore
- 12:20Speaker 1: a little bit. One day it's going to match up.
- 12:24Speaker 1: I want to go to Wrigley Field, like one day.
- 12:27Speaker 1: It's not going to be this this week, but I
- 12:29Speaker 1: would love, you know, be awesome if we were had
- 12:31Speaker 1: like a Sunday night game and we were able to
- 12:33Speaker 1: to do a one o'clock game or something like that
- 12:36Speaker 1: on a Wrigley, but I've never been. I want to
- 12:38Speaker 1: go to Wrigley. I want to go to Fenway.
- 12:40Speaker 4: By the way, Seventy eight is the high, sixty five's low,
- 12:43Speaker 4: and it's going to rain.
- 12:45Speaker 1: Yeah, so seventy two they'll have nachos lightings. Okay, probably
- 12:52Speaker 1: some brought worse up there, mane probably anyways, all right's nice? Yeah,
- 12:56Speaker 1: well yeah, yeah, I was gonna say something, but yeah,
- 13:00Speaker 1: it is, It is nice, all right, Lestern Minnesota is next?
- 13:05Speaker 5: Hey, what's up next? I don't know about anybody getting
- 13:09Speaker 5: fired or on the hot season. I have to do games.
- 13:12Speaker 5: I mean, I'm a defensive guy myself, but I mean
- 13:16Speaker 5: my guy, we got a lot of injury, a few injuries,
- 13:20Speaker 5: and uh, what I think they should do is like
- 13:23Speaker 5: mix up the coverages a little bit more, and I
- 13:25Speaker 5: think I think we'll be We'll do a lot better
- 13:28Speaker 5: that way. Playing one hundred percent something zone or ninety
- 13:31Speaker 5: eight percent zone or ninety percent zone, that's supredictable. Just
- 13:36Speaker 5: mix it up a little bit more. I know Clowney,
- 13:40Speaker 5: even if he has just ten snaps, he'll make a
- 13:43Speaker 5: difference because they people know who he is. They have
- 13:47Speaker 5: to on their respect him and I believe my score
- 13:52Speaker 5: for the game would be twenty four twelve. I think
- 13:58Speaker 5: I don't even think they'll score a touchdown, but I
- 14:00Speaker 5: feel'll be wrong, but twelve twenty four twelve is my predication.
- 14:04Speaker 5: What do you think?
- 14:05Speaker 1: Twenty four to twelve. I'm I'm really back and forth
- 14:11Speaker 1: on this one. I haven't. Thanks for the call, Lester,
- 14:13Speaker 1: I haven't. First all, nobody's getting fired. I mean that again,
- 14:17Speaker 1: that's that's that's an article. That's I mean again, find
- 14:20Speaker 1: the article and find the person who wrote it and
- 14:22Speaker 1: what platform it's on and all that. I mean, it's
- 14:25Speaker 1: it's really not I don't think that that that's the
- 14:27Speaker 1: any thing close that's gonna happen here. They're gonna have
- 14:29Speaker 1: a little more patience than that. And got to remember too,
- 14:31Speaker 1: Eberfleus is a guy that that the Cowboys, you know,
- 14:34Speaker 1: really like. They they've trusted him, they trust uh, you know,
- 14:38Speaker 1: he's been here before and he's he's done a good job,
- 14:41Speaker 1: and they're giving them the benefit of the doubt, especially
- 14:43Speaker 1: more than two games. Let's just stop with all that stuff.
- 14:45Speaker 1: That's not gonna happen right now, and nor should it.
- 14:50Speaker 1: I'm having a hard time with this one because I
- 14:52Speaker 1: see two things like these two like flashing lights. The
- 14:57Speaker 1: first one is when you win a game the way
- 15:00Speaker 1: the Cowboys did, I'm trying to kind of go back
- 15:03Speaker 1: and find other ones that were crazy like that and
- 15:06Speaker 1: like what happened the next week? And what I'm kind
- 15:10Speaker 1: of finding out is that it doesn't look good, you know,
- 15:14Speaker 1: after a game like that, when you're like, how did
- 15:17Speaker 1: they win that one? How did they win that game? Wow?
- 15:21Speaker 1: And then the next week it's not not so great.
- 15:25Speaker 1: But then again, every team's different, and so you know
- 15:28Speaker 1: that you can't go off off that. And then the
- 15:32Speaker 1: next thing that I'm thinking about is the Bears secondary
- 15:39Speaker 1: and the Bear's pass rush. I mean, it's the same
- 15:41Speaker 1: as the Cowboys when it comes down to like they
- 15:43Speaker 1: don't have a great pass rush and their secondary is very,
- 15:47Speaker 1: very inexperienced, and you know, Naseean Writ's one of their
- 15:51Speaker 1: starters over there. So you look at the matchups and
- 15:55Speaker 1: you're like, you know, I if it's going to be
- 15:58Speaker 1: a shootout back and forth, I like that. I like
- 16:01Speaker 1: Dak CD and Pickings in that group more than I
- 16:04Speaker 1: like Caleb Williams and Rome with Doonza. If I'm saying
- 16:09Speaker 1: that right, and Dj Moore, I mean, you know, but
- 16:12Speaker 1: Luther Burden that they've got guys, but comes down to
- 16:14Speaker 1: Dak and Caleb Williams, and I like, I like them.
- 16:17Speaker 1: I like the Cowboys more in that and and I
- 16:20Speaker 1: and I think the defense, I still think we'll bounce
- 16:23Speaker 1: back a little bit. I don't think the defense is great,
- 16:25Speaker 1: but I think they're gonna make enough changes. And so
- 16:27Speaker 1: when I think of it that way, I think, well,
- 16:30Speaker 1: this seems like one that the Cowboys would have a
- 16:32Speaker 1: hard time winning. But when you just really look at
- 16:35Speaker 1: the matchup and and don't take the weird NFL picture
- 16:39Speaker 1: part of it and say I think the cow I
- 16:42Speaker 1: think the how we will win. So I'm still kind
- 16:44Speaker 1: of back and forth with my gut feeling, but I
- 16:47Speaker 1: think it's gonna be a Cowboy win for me. For
- 16:49Speaker 1: the pick. Let's have a hard time thinking that Dak
- 16:52Speaker 1: and this offense is going to be outscored. That's that's
- 16:55Speaker 1: what I'm thinking. By bye, by the Bears, I mean
- 16:57Speaker 1: not that it can't happen, but by the Bears, and
- 16:59Speaker 1: this is situation. I don't know. I think I think
- 17:02Speaker 1: the Cowboys will will prevail, but it's going to be interesting.
- 17:05Speaker 1: It's gonna be a lot of points scored too. Somebody
- 17:07Speaker 1: that will be in Chicago, because all right, actually, no,
- 17:11Speaker 1: doesn't live in Chicago. Josh is from Chicago. Josh doing good?
- 17:17Speaker 1: How are you good?
- 17:18Speaker 9: Yeah?
- 17:18Speaker 10: I miss my city, the city beautiful.
- 17:20Speaker 11: I miss it.
- 17:20Speaker 10: So I gotta tell you though, if you go to Chicago,
- 17:23Speaker 10: don't sleep on the cell. You know, Socks have a
- 17:26Speaker 10: nice park down there in the South Side. Maybe that's
- 17:28Speaker 10: some good food.
- 17:28Speaker 3: At that park.
- 17:29Speaker 1: So that's my team, the White Sox. Oh, yes, sir,
- 17:32Speaker 1: they actually do play.
- 17:34Speaker 10: They play show up sometimes.
- 17:37Speaker 1: No, No, I mean they this weekend. I mean, like
- 17:39Speaker 1: of all the of all the games. Because when the
- 17:40Speaker 1: schedule comes out, you know Nick Harris, who used to
- 17:43Speaker 1: be with us and still does Media Master and all that,
- 17:45Speaker 1: he texted me and he looked through every single possible
- 17:49Speaker 1: scenario of every game on the schedule, whether it be
- 17:52Speaker 1: a college football game close or maybe you know, we
- 17:55Speaker 1: don't know the NBA yet, but but you know, just
- 17:58Speaker 1: any other sporting event, and the only thing remotely possible
- 18:02Speaker 1: was the White Sox this weekend. And it was kind
- 18:06Speaker 1: of like, oh well, so it's like it's not gonna
- 18:08Speaker 1: happen this year.
- 18:10Speaker 10: So I used to when I was in law school.
- 18:11Speaker 10: I'll tell you a quick story. I used to walk
- 18:13Speaker 10: to my train station and I there's days where it
- 18:15Speaker 10: was like Windshill was like negative, you know, thirty negative forty,
- 18:18Speaker 10: and it was rough. But I lived closer to Wrigley.
- 18:22Speaker 10: I never really liked going to Wrigley. I just don't
- 18:24Speaker 10: like the stadium as much. I'm a Socks fan too,
- 18:25Speaker 10: so there's obviously a bias. But the food at Socks
- 18:29Speaker 10: Park is they got some good food down there. Yeah,
- 18:32Speaker 10: so you know, if you can make it over there,
- 18:34Speaker 10: you should. But I just wanted to bring up a
- 18:36Speaker 10: point from what I called the other day with grades.
- 18:39Speaker 10: I look at that more as on our team, ourselves, right,
- 18:42Speaker 10: So I get what you're saying. I think the Giants
- 18:44Speaker 10: are actually a better team than people want to give
- 18:46Speaker 10: them credit for. But I look at like the discipline
- 18:49Speaker 10: of the Cowboys in that game, the discipline for not
- 18:52Speaker 10: just penalties, but you know, their assignments, And that's where
- 18:55Speaker 10: I think, like the great to me is a little
- 18:56Speaker 10: bit different for that because I'm looking at our team
- 19:00Speaker 10: or them the team that they're facing. But I get
- 19:02Speaker 10: your point as well. Yeah, regarding this game with the Bears,
- 19:07Speaker 10: I really think, especially with the way that the Cowboys
- 19:10Speaker 10: can run the ball right now, if they get a
- 19:12Speaker 10: chance to take the ball first like they did against
- 19:14Speaker 10: the Eagles, I kind of want to see that again
- 19:16Speaker 10: because I think Williams can really get the ground, you know,
- 19:19Speaker 10: get the ground game rolling, and if they do, I
- 19:21Speaker 10: think the Bears fighting from behind is where they really struggle. Yeah,
- 19:24Speaker 10: and if we can get up you know, seven or
- 19:26Speaker 10: fourteen on them, I don't think Caleb Williams has the
- 19:28Speaker 10: arm to really or the accuracy to put the ball
- 19:32Speaker 10: down the field for them like Russell Wilson could. So
- 19:34Speaker 10: that's kind of my thing. I think that we should
- 19:36Speaker 10: take the ball first if we can. I I'm not sure.
- 19:39Speaker 10: I three and oh and three start for the Bears
- 19:41Speaker 10: would be surprising, right, you know. I think they have
- 19:43Speaker 10: a lot of talent, but I just think that the
- 19:46Speaker 10: Cowboys got this one. I think that they're going to
- 19:48Speaker 10: start rolling here. I think we're gonna start seeing more
- 19:49Speaker 10: run game working, and I think that's going to be
- 19:52Speaker 10: a big key to success going forward. I'll take off there.
- 19:55Speaker 1: Thanks, Josh. You know, I'm the same way like it's
- 19:57Speaker 1: easy to say I just don't see them going on
- 19:59Speaker 1: in three. But that's the difference that you have to
- 20:02Speaker 1: remind yourself too. And I have to remind myself that,
- 20:04Speaker 1: like they don't have to go oh and three. You know,
- 20:08Speaker 1: they don't have to lose three games. They just have
- 20:09Speaker 1: to lose one. I mean, you know what I mean,
- 20:11Speaker 1: Like you that's a that's a statement you say in June,
- 20:14Speaker 1: like they're not gonna go oh in three. Now they're
- 20:16Speaker 1: gonna win one of the three. Okay, cool, that sounds good.
- 20:18Speaker 1: But now that when they're sitting at oh and two,
- 20:20Speaker 1: especially with the way that they lost and going up
- 20:23Speaker 1: you know, with with the depleted defense going up against
- 20:26Speaker 1: the Cowboys offense that can that could score, and you know,
- 20:30Speaker 1: it's kind of like, what what matchup do you like better?
- 20:34Speaker 1: You know, the Bears are gonna the Bears are gonna score.
- 20:36Speaker 1: I mean, we know that they're gonna score some points.
- 20:39Speaker 1: I trust that. You know, at some point, you know
- 20:42Speaker 1: they're gonna go make a play. You know, if someone
- 20:44Speaker 1: told me this other day and this is this is funny.
- 20:46Speaker 1: Russell Wilson's game, Russell Wilson's game was the Tony Romo
- 20:50Speaker 1: game against Denver back in what thirteen where it was
- 20:54Speaker 1: like perfect up until the very end and then you
- 20:59Speaker 1: throw an make a bad decision and throw an interception
- 21:02Speaker 1: and you lose. But that Russell Wilson game was kind
- 21:06Speaker 1: of like what Romo did when he was, you know,
- 21:08Speaker 1: going up against Peyton Manning and Denver and they lost
- 21:10Speaker 1: fifty one to forty eight. But I always said, if
- 21:13Speaker 1: Romo doesn't throw a pick, which he did, but if
- 21:16Speaker 1: they drive down the field and score a touchdown I
- 21:19Speaker 1: mean a kick a field goal and win the game
- 21:21Speaker 1: fifty one to forty eight, how different would we be
- 21:24Speaker 1: thinking of Tony Romo Because not only would he have
- 21:27Speaker 1: gone down the field and won the game, but he
- 21:30Speaker 1: was sitting I think at five oh six in that
- 21:32Speaker 1: game for passing yards and the record is still like
- 21:35Speaker 1: five forty. So to get down to field goal range.
- 21:38Speaker 1: They didn't have Randon Aubrey back then. I mean it
- 21:40Speaker 1: was Dan Bailey, but I mean he's not kicking it
- 21:42Speaker 1: that far. You're gonna have to pass the ball down there.
- 21:45Speaker 1: He's probably gonna set the record of passing yards and
- 21:47Speaker 1: beat Peyton Manning and win that game in dramatic fashion.
- 21:50Speaker 1: Might be thinking of him completely differently. But well, we
- 21:54Speaker 1: know the theory about ifs all right, let's go one
- 21:57Speaker 1: more Chris Saratoga Springs, New York before we go to break.
- 22:01Speaker 7: Hey, Nick, how are you good?
- 22:02Speaker 1: Are you?
- 22:03Speaker 7: I'm good? Excited to see Clowney rush the pastor for
- 22:07Speaker 7: the Cowboys, for sure. I'm definitely interested to see how
- 22:10Speaker 7: he does. I like his comment when he was talking
- 22:13Speaker 7: to one of the reporters saying, how you know, the
- 22:15Speaker 7: last team had him dropping back in coverage and he
- 22:17Speaker 7: was told by the Cowboys You're not going to be
- 22:19Speaker 7: dropping back. You're gonna be rushing the past or. So
- 22:21Speaker 7: I'm really excited to see him, you know, show up
- 22:25Speaker 7: on this week against the Chicago Bears. We need to
- 22:28Speaker 7: take care of business against the Bears. These are the
- 22:31Speaker 7: games we need to win. I mean, if you look
- 22:32Speaker 7: at our schedule, we have some tough games. We have
- 22:35Speaker 7: to win these winnable games against these lesser teams. So
- 22:39Speaker 7: we have to win this game. I think we'll win
- 22:41Speaker 7: it by a touchdown. And my only other question I
- 22:46Speaker 7: have for you is what do you think about our
- 22:50Speaker 7: special teams with all the I mean, it seems to
- 22:53Speaker 7: me like every time there's a special teams players of Pounty.
- 22:56Speaker 7: What are your thoughts and trying to get you know,
- 22:59Speaker 7: button that up a little because it's discouraging to see
- 23:02Speaker 7: every time where you just kick off return or kick
- 23:05Speaker 7: return or anything, we're getting a penalty on these special
- 23:08Speaker 7: teams where in the past we haven't really had that
- 23:10Speaker 7: issue with bones being here.
- 23:12Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, all right, thanks thanks for the call of Chris.
- 23:15Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, there's no doubt about it. The special
- 23:18Speaker 1: teams is I mean, there's especially in a game like
- 23:22Speaker 1: that where they're they're calling a lot of penalties, you're
- 23:25Speaker 1: gonna get a block in the back almost every time.
- 23:27Speaker 1: So you know, it's I don't know why teams would
- 23:31Speaker 1: ever kick the ball into the end zone because you're
- 23:36Speaker 1: put it in at the thirty five yard line if
- 23:38Speaker 1: you you know, pooch it up there to the two
- 23:43Speaker 1: five yard line whatever, and go down there and make
- 23:45Speaker 1: the tackle. And if you give up a big play,
- 23:48Speaker 1: you know what, that's on you. But go down there
- 23:50Speaker 1: and make the tackle, especially if you've angled the kick
- 23:51Speaker 1: into the like the side. So it's really tough to
- 23:54Speaker 1: kind of for them to make a play and not
- 23:57Speaker 1: half the time there's gonna be a block in the back.
- 23:59Speaker 1: So instead of just getting the ball to twenty five
- 24:02Speaker 1: or thirty, there could be a block in the back.
- 24:03Speaker 1: And now you're starting back to the twelve ten. So
- 24:07Speaker 1: it's not worth it to kick a deep. It's worth
- 24:09Speaker 1: it to go down there and make the tackle and
- 24:10Speaker 1: you might even get a penalty, especially the way the
- 24:12Speaker 1: Cowboys are And I get it young, you know, young
- 24:16Speaker 1: team with young players down there on special teams. I mean,
- 24:19Speaker 1: you don't really have many of those core veteran guys
- 24:21Speaker 1: that play a lot of special teams. This is a
- 24:24Speaker 1: relatively young team. So the backups, while they have some experience,
- 24:27Speaker 1: they're still kind of young and still not that experience
- 24:30Speaker 1: on special teams. But you know, you say that Marku's
- 24:33Speaker 1: Bell had two penalties, and Markus Bell's played a lot
- 24:35Speaker 1: of special teams. I think he led the team in
- 24:37Speaker 1: tackles one year a couple of years ago, So there's
- 24:40Speaker 1: no excuse for that. That's something that's got to get
- 24:43Speaker 1: cleaned up for sure. Let's go to break Cowboys storyline.

- 26:58Speaker 1: doctor Sunshine is going to be on a cruise to one.
- 27:00Speaker 1: If it's the same one, I doubt it. But yeah,
- 27:07Speaker 1: even though this segment is sponsored by Yetti, we are
- 27:12Speaker 1: thinking about the t shirts again next year because Yeti's
- 27:15Speaker 1: And that's why, because the yeties are so dependable, you
- 27:17Speaker 1: don't need one every year, maybe every other year or whatever.
- 27:20Speaker 1: All right, thanks for the text from sergeants. So let's
- 27:24Speaker 1: go back to the phone line. I got Brandon, Fresno, California.
- 27:28Speaker 9: What Meg, what's going on?
- 27:30Speaker 1: How are you?
- 27:31Speaker 9: I need? I need to get one of those jetties
- 27:32Speaker 9: and them cups.
- 27:33Speaker 1: Man, go keep calling. It's not it's you know what,
- 27:37Speaker 1: it's not even Just keep calling because I don't want
- 27:39Speaker 1: to say that. I want to discourage were people that
- 27:41Speaker 1: just can't call in all the time, you know, just
- 27:43Speaker 1: when you call in, when you get in, just be memorable.
- 27:47Speaker 1: You know.
- 27:48Speaker 9: I should have got I should have got it when
- 27:49Speaker 9: I seen you at Chenney camp that day.
- 27:51Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh right right right right.
- 27:53Speaker 9: Yeah good good. Uh So my question to you, Nick,
- 27:58Speaker 9: this is my question to you. You are Jerry Nick
- 28:01Speaker 9: Eamon Jones. Everybody's talking about trading our first round picks
- 28:05Speaker 9: and trade hendersons. I know you can't talk about players
- 28:08Speaker 9: in certain teams and stuff like that, but what position
- 28:11Speaker 9: would you give up a first round, a sector round,
- 28:13Speaker 9: or both first rounds?
- 28:15Speaker 4: Right now?
- 28:15Speaker 9: Because I mean you got rid of the pass rush obviously,
- 28:19Speaker 9: so that's gone. You go pick up clowning nothing, he's
- 28:22Speaker 9: replacement or whatever. But you have I think everything in place.
- 28:26Speaker 9: You have your offensive line, We found a gym and
- 28:29Speaker 9: Javonte Williams. You got the two receivers. You got a
- 28:32Speaker 9: good tight end. I think you look at that Eagles
- 28:37Speaker 9: game when we're rushing. You got Diggs on the blitz,
- 28:40Speaker 9: he misses, Jalen Hurts, you got Wilson on the blitz,
- 28:43Speaker 9: he misses. I think that's a different game. I think
- 28:45Speaker 9: we're talking about our defense a little bit after that game,
- 28:48Speaker 9: saying look at oh, look at we schemed up facts
- 28:51Speaker 9: and everything like that. So what would you give up?
- 28:53Speaker 9: Or do we even need to get up? And did
- 28:55Speaker 9: we get to steal maybe this draft from the next
- 28:58Speaker 9: one with these first round picks?
- 29:00Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 29:00Speaker 9: And my last thing to you, what game was it
- 29:03Speaker 9: where you were in the background and you're pointing. I
- 29:05Speaker 9: think it's that Jason Winton and he like called it
- 29:07Speaker 9: it was like game. I remember you're like pointing in
- 29:10Speaker 9: the background. I forgot what game it was and he
- 29:12Speaker 9: was against the Giants.
- 29:13Speaker 1: It was against the Eagles.
- 29:16Speaker 11: Yeah, in overtime.
- 29:19Speaker 1: And I'm in the back of the end zone and
- 29:21Speaker 1: literally Witten is this running right in front of us,
- 29:24Speaker 1: and it's and and Dak was kind spinning and so
- 29:27Speaker 1: he kind of turned and he was going to his left,
- 29:30Speaker 1: and Witton was right there, and I was just like,
- 29:32Speaker 1: there's Witting, there's Witting right there, Like throw it to Witting,
- 29:35Speaker 1: and it's like that. You actually see me pointing.
- 29:38Speaker 9: Yeah, I remember. I remember seeing that so awesome. And
- 29:41Speaker 9: then my prediction is we're gonna win this game. Honestly,
- 29:43Speaker 9: we're gonna win it. I think we're getting everything in place.
- 29:47Speaker 9: We figure everything out after that rain delay, we figured
- 29:49Speaker 9: our defense out, and you know, so I think we're
- 29:51Speaker 9: just we're getting there. Everything's just falling in place. Mante Williams, man,
- 29:55Speaker 9: he's just killing it. So I got us winning, uh
- 30:00Speaker 9: eight fourteen?
- 30:02Speaker 1: All right, thanks for the call, Brandon. I don't know
- 30:05Speaker 1: if you meant to say it just like that, after
- 30:07Speaker 1: the rain delay they figured it out. Not really, I mean,
- 30:13Speaker 1: because you know that was the Giants game was last week.
- 30:17Speaker 14: So.
- 30:18Speaker 1: There's things to still figure out for this defense. But
- 30:22Speaker 1: but that would be a great win if you could
- 30:24Speaker 1: go to Chicago and win twenty to fourteen Eberflues could
- 30:27Speaker 1: go and play, you know, have the defense playing well
- 30:30Speaker 1: and go win a game like that on the road. Yeah,
- 30:32Speaker 1: I mean I think that I think that would be
- 30:33Speaker 1: that'd be big, you know, to get to get to
- 30:36Speaker 1: this Packers game coming up next week. If you could
- 30:38Speaker 1: get to two and one, that would be that'd be
- 30:40Speaker 1: a really big accomplishment. However it's done, I think that
- 30:43Speaker 1: that would be huge. And you asked about trading what
- 30:46Speaker 1: position and all that, you know, it's it's your top spots.
- 30:50Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, I wouldn't necessarily consider a trade
- 30:54Speaker 1: unless it was somebody you know that was going to
- 30:58Speaker 1: get a big contract so you're gonna have to hate them.
- 31:01Speaker 1: But it's you know, it's somebody in the last year
- 31:03Speaker 1: of their deal and and that's relatively young that you're like,
- 31:07Speaker 1: we could resign him and keep him on our team.
- 31:10Speaker 1: And that position would have to be probably a corner
- 31:14Speaker 1: or a pass rusher, defensive end. Now that those those
- 31:16Speaker 1: would be the ones for me. But I don't know
- 31:20Speaker 1: if if that person's there, I don't know if there's
- 31:22Speaker 1: somebody that a team's like, wet's just trade him and
- 31:24Speaker 1: try to get a pick. But that probably would be
- 31:28Speaker 1: my route. All right, Jeremy and DC is next?
- 31:31Speaker 8: Hey your ni, how you doing? You're staying out of trouble, buddy?
- 31:37Speaker 1: Uh? Sure, I had to think about it, but I
- 31:41Speaker 1: mean for the moment is yeah, is.
- 31:45Speaker 8: You ain't hurt nobody? Then did you?
- 31:47Speaker 1: No?
- 31:48Speaker 8: No?
- 31:49Speaker 15: No.
- 31:50Speaker 1: But if my son doesn't doesn't move a little faster
- 31:52Speaker 1: in the mornings, he's gonna he's getting closer.
- 32:00Speaker 8: Feeling bad.
- 32:00Speaker 2: I know the feeling.
- 32:01Speaker 16: Well.
- 32:02Speaker 8: First I want to say congratulations to Shatty for his
- 32:04Speaker 8: first win. You know what I'm saying that the head coach,
- 32:07Speaker 8: that's that's that's what he needs, you know. And then
- 32:10Speaker 8: I just want to say I told you, man, don't
- 32:13Speaker 8: worry about the Lamborghini. He's gonna be okay. And now
- 32:17Speaker 8: you're getting CP GP three in the motion. Yeah it's
- 32:22Speaker 8: torpedo Okay, because I wasn't I'm not listening live right now. Yeah,
- 32:26Speaker 8: I just want to know is the torpedo okay? Uh?
- 32:30Speaker 1: He I think he has a shot to play. Was
- 32:33Speaker 1: on the field, he's he was limited in practice. I
- 32:37Speaker 1: have a feeling like he's gonna he's got a shot
- 32:39Speaker 1: to play in this game.
- 32:40Speaker 8: So yeah, okay, okay, because I I like, I like
- 32:45Speaker 8: the fact that they're getting him more involved because oh yeah,
- 32:49Speaker 8: he's a beast, you know, just especially when you use
- 32:52Speaker 8: him the right way. And then I just want to
- 32:54Speaker 8: ask this question and then I'll listen off here, But
- 32:58Speaker 8: do you think that they can get my man leasiulet
- 33:01Speaker 8: in the game? Man? Because he kind of remind me
- 33:05Speaker 8: of Kendricks mixed with a little bit of Troy Polamalu
- 33:08Speaker 8: with that hey out like that, you know what. I yeah,
- 33:12Speaker 8: And he's just be running around literally like his head
- 33:15Speaker 8: is on fire, you know. So I just think we
- 33:18Speaker 8: need that out there from some of them linebacker guys.
- 33:21Speaker 8: I like what the K nine is doing because without
- 33:24Speaker 8: there stopping from fourth down, we probably wouldn't have even
- 33:26Speaker 8: won that game. But you know, I just believe they
- 33:30Speaker 8: should probably uh like sub him and Samborn, you know
- 33:33Speaker 8: what I'm saying. Very now, all right, I don't really
- 33:37Speaker 8: have much, man. You enjoy your day and trying not
- 33:41Speaker 8: to get in too much.
- 33:41Speaker 1: I'll be fine. You stay out of trouble. You're the
- 33:44Speaker 1: one that probably needs Thanks for the call, Jeremy, appreciate it,
- 33:48Speaker 1: you know. So I rarely do this, but I saw
- 33:52Speaker 1: an opportunity yesterday. So this this really happened. So I
- 33:56Speaker 1: took the storyline and took it off the air and
- 34:01Speaker 1: actually took it to the training table where the players eat,
- 34:05Speaker 1: where we eat and all. That's what's called cafeteria, but
- 34:08Speaker 1: it's called the training table. And I actually saw lea
- 34:12Speaker 1: foul and I and I chatted with him for a second.
- 34:16Speaker 1: I said, I want you to know, like I do
- 34:18Speaker 1: a podcast, callers and fans call in, and there's not
- 34:23Speaker 1: one player that they want to see more. I could
- 34:26Speaker 1: have been Jayden Blue, but you know, for because I
- 34:28Speaker 1: was talking to Leafowl, I said, there's not a player
- 34:30Speaker 1: that they want to see more than then you. Now.
- 34:32Speaker 1: I mean, he goes, well, you can tell them that
- 34:36Speaker 1: I agree with them and I want to be out
- 34:39Speaker 1: there more as well. So he's very nice. I mean,
- 34:41Speaker 1: if you guys have seen videos of him, he's a
- 34:44Speaker 1: really really good good dude. Uh And I think he's
- 34:47Speaker 1: a good young player. But he was kind of, you know,
- 34:49Speaker 1: very respectful. But he was like, you can tell them
- 34:51Speaker 1: that I agree with them and I want to be
- 34:54Speaker 1: out there more. And that was that was kind of
- 34:56Speaker 1: the gist of it, you know, wasn't anything to it.
- 34:58Speaker 1: I didn't get in there and like, why aren't you
- 35:00Speaker 1: playing moron? But he was just like he feels it.
- 35:04Speaker 1: He feels the same pain. Okay, probably more than y'all actually,
- 35:07Speaker 1: because it's his career. Let's go to Travis and San Antonio.
- 35:13Speaker 17: Niah Cathy Thursday.
- 35:14Speaker 1: To you, man, what's going on?
- 35:17Speaker 17: I got a sent to Chicago and someone was talking
- 35:20Speaker 17: about the press box. I got a bad pun joke
- 35:22Speaker 17: for you. Okay, remember the original Twister with the Helen
- 35:25Speaker 17: Hunting Bill Paxton when their truck turns over. Yeah, it
- 35:27Speaker 17: deftly comes up to Helen hunt and he says, what
- 35:30Speaker 17: was it like? You remember her response?
- 35:33Speaker 1: Now windy? Oh did you? Did you?
- 35:39Speaker 17: Did you see just in honor of the Windy City?
- 35:41Speaker 1: Yeah? Did you see that? Do you know what yesterday's
- 35:43Speaker 1: show was titled?
- 35:45Speaker 17: I did not see it?
- 35:46Speaker 1: Now Windy Wednesday?
- 35:48Speaker 17: There you go.
- 35:49Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm trying to go. I'm there with you.
- 35:52Speaker 17: I dig it, I dig it?
- 35:53Speaker 1: All right? All right?
- 35:54Speaker 17: Well, I just wanted to call and say I wouldn't
- 35:56Speaker 17: give my score prediction, but also say I think people
- 35:59Speaker 17: have been talking about the clowny and I'm hoping obviously
- 36:01Speaker 17: I don't think you know he's going to be limited
- 36:03Speaker 17: as he rams up, but I'm kind of hoping that
- 36:05Speaker 17: the Clowney Again, no one's just expecting him to replace anybody,
- 36:10Speaker 17: but I'm hoping that Nick, like he has a similar
- 36:14Speaker 17: impact that Kenny Clark had, where Kenny Clark came in
- 36:17Speaker 17: and he sort of bumped everyone down to kind of
- 36:20Speaker 17: where they were supposed to be, you know what I mean,
- 36:21Speaker 17: from like from the expectation standpoint, So like maybe you know,
- 36:24Speaker 17: when Clowney does get ramped up, Yeah, I know everyone
- 36:27Speaker 17: wants to see as a rock who I still think
- 36:29Speaker 17: he's going to be a really good player, but maybe
- 36:31Speaker 17: it allows him to take a little pressure off himself,
- 36:33Speaker 17: take a little pressure off Fouler. So I'm hoping that
- 36:36Speaker 17: kind of has a similar calming effect everybody where it's like, okay,
- 36:39Speaker 17: we can all kind of settle into our roles and
- 36:41Speaker 17: just do our thing and go from there because maybe
- 36:44Speaker 17: we never know, maybe some of these guys are pressing
- 36:46Speaker 17: him a little bit, maybe as a rocker feels like
- 36:48Speaker 17: he has but he has to account for eleven and
- 36:51Speaker 17: we don't need you to be forty one, which is
- 36:53Speaker 17: a weird number. But I think Chris kind of got
- 36:59Speaker 17: me saying that it's gonna be rainy, but I'm still
- 37:00Speaker 17: gonna stick with my score. I'm gonna say Cowboys win
- 37:03Speaker 17: thirty four to twenty three, and then the last thing,
- 37:06Speaker 17: the whole fireingcluse. I don't think I think it's crazy,
- 37:09Speaker 17: but I think the only reason people are saying that
- 37:12Speaker 17: nick is because he hasn't tried to change it up yet,
- 37:15Speaker 17: So they're kind of like, wow, you're just sticking with
- 37:16Speaker 17: the same thing. But I'm kind of hoping that maybe
- 37:19Speaker 17: he peeks into what dan Quinn. Remember when dan Quinn used,
- 37:23Speaker 17: oh crap, I'm bugging on his name. Twenty seven down
- 37:27Speaker 17: by the line of scrimmage, he played like linebacker for
- 37:30Speaker 17: us basically no Marquo, no the other the other yes,
- 37:38Speaker 17: thank you, thank you, jay Ron curse. I'm hoping like
- 37:41Speaker 17: maybe on some third down stuff, maybe he looks at that,
- 37:44Speaker 17: because I know, you know, these coaches look at previous stuff.
- 37:46Speaker 17: Maybe you can use dona In in a similar role
- 37:49Speaker 17: like aet that linebacker position on some third down stuff
- 37:52Speaker 17: when you're dialing up and just utilize him that way
- 37:55Speaker 17: in some sub packages and stuff. So I kind of
- 37:57Speaker 17: hoping he makes that change and go cowboys, have a
- 38:00Speaker 17: great one.
- 38:01Speaker 1: All right, thanks Travis. All right, good call, let's keep
- 38:06Speaker 1: it going. Ali in Florida. It's not in Florida, Ali,
- 38:09Speaker 1: what's up?
- 38:11Speaker 15: Good morning, Syrup?
- 38:13Speaker 1: How are you pretty good?
- 38:15Speaker 12: Buddy?
- 38:15Speaker 15: I'm calling you probably the longest system so I ever
- 38:18Speaker 15: called the show. I mean a disco island in green.
- 38:22Speaker 1: Greenland, Greenland. Wow, what are you doing there?
- 38:26Speaker 15: Chasing a polar bear with the locals before they go
- 38:30Speaker 15: to hibernation?
- 38:31Speaker 1: You know, yeah, no, no, I don't know. But I
- 38:34Speaker 1: can't say, yeah, I know, I do not know anything
- 38:37Speaker 1: about chasing polar bears in the green in Greenland. But
- 38:40Speaker 1: the fact that I'm just gonna picture that and picture
- 38:43Speaker 1: you on the phone talking about the cowboys this week,
- 38:47Speaker 1: like that's awesome. That's that's that's great.
- 38:50Speaker 15: To be honest with you, I don't chase someone's sit
- 38:52Speaker 15: behind this snowmobile and the local natives they.
- 38:57Speaker 7: Drive and they find them.
- 38:58Speaker 15: Then I get off there snowmobile and photograph them a
- 39:02Speaker 15: couple of things.
- 39:04Speaker 1: But I will say there's some irony and that you're
- 39:06Speaker 1: chasing polar bears as these teams, these these defense is
- 39:09Speaker 1: going to be chasing just regular bears. I guess for
- 39:13Speaker 1: for for this game. But I love it. Yeah, I
- 39:15Speaker 1: love it. Go ahead, what do you go?
- 39:18Speaker 15: First of all, belated happy birthday to your mom. Okay,
- 39:24Speaker 15: So number one rules is because I love you like
- 39:28Speaker 15: my own son. You don't mention women's age on public podcasts.
- 39:36Speaker 15: Just live it at that. Always be some happy twenty
- 39:39Speaker 15: eighth birthday like that.
- 39:41Speaker 11: Better.
- 39:41Speaker 1: Now I disagree, I disagree. Mom My mom's seventy five
- 39:47Speaker 1: years old. She's proud of it. She's beautiful at seventy five.
- 39:52Speaker 1: I'm fine with that. I think she's fine with it too.
- 39:54Speaker 6: I really okay, she's okay.
- 39:56Speaker 1: I think I don't know Alie. I hope, I hope.
- 39:59Speaker 1: I I think I know her better than you a
- 40:01Speaker 1: little bit. But I understand. I understand that that theory.
- 40:04Speaker 1: For the most part, this one I felt good about. Okay,
- 40:08Speaker 1: So you know what, no, no, let me say this.
- 40:11Speaker 1: She called herself Jethrow Pew. Okay, Jethrow Pew who wore
- 40:15Speaker 1: number seventy five back in the day. My mom said,
- 40:20Speaker 1: Jethrow Pew. And she also said she had to get
- 40:22Speaker 1: up and the house was a mess. She has to
- 40:24Speaker 1: haul ass this morning and cleans us up. That came
- 40:26Speaker 1: from her, so you know what, like she's she's fine,
- 40:29Speaker 1: She's all good. Okay, let's move on.
- 40:32Speaker 15: So a couple of things. First of all, I noticed
- 40:37Speaker 15: since all the Captain and a couple of the storyliners
- 40:41Speaker 15: that visited you in ox Start, I realized Captain Rob
- 40:47Speaker 15: and you, when you talk to each other, is more most,
- 40:51Speaker 15: more respectful, and City lies, which is which is super nice.
- 40:56Speaker 7: You guys get it.
- 40:57Speaker 15: Along perfect right now, right, which is great. So a
- 41:02Speaker 15: couple of things. I was just thinking. First of all,
- 41:05Speaker 15: I haven't got a chance to watch the games, but
- 41:08Speaker 15: I heard about the Giants game. I watched the Eagles,
- 41:12Speaker 15: but I was wondering, if you have a choice to
- 41:18Speaker 15: see Eagle in the Super Bowl or Green Bay in
- 41:22Speaker 15: the Super Bowl this year. I hope none of them.
- 41:26Speaker 15: But I was just thinking what would bother me the most?
- 41:29Speaker 15: And I just want to let you know, love you.
- 41:31Speaker 15: I'm gonna hang up and listen.
- 41:33Speaker 1: All right, Well, I mean let's just say Green Bay
- 41:42Speaker 1: that because you're you're because your draft pick is tied
- 41:47Speaker 1: to that. So I mean you don't want thirty one
- 41:51Speaker 1: or thirty two. Yeah, it's gonna suck either way, it's
- 41:55Speaker 1: gonna suck. Either way if it's if it's the you know,
- 41:58Speaker 1: Eagles or the Packers. But you know you're going off
- 42:02Speaker 1: a draft pick here, so I would I would say,
- 42:06Speaker 1: you know, I guess Green Bay would would be the
- 42:08Speaker 1: worst part of it. If it wasn't that, then man,
- 42:11Speaker 1: you might you might go the other way. But yeah,
- 42:15Speaker 1: I mean, you don't. You don't want to make a
- 42:16Speaker 1: trade and and then you know, see them, you know,
- 42:20Speaker 1: just kind of thrive because of it. I mean, so far, yes,
- 42:23Speaker 1: green Bay has has done that, and I'm sure San
- 42:25Speaker 1: Francisco felt the same thing, you know, when they traded
- 42:28Speaker 1: Charles Haley and there they went to Super Bowls in
- 42:30Speaker 1: a row. But let's also remember the I mean, the
- 42:32Speaker 1: forty nine Ers were in the championship game both of
- 42:34Speaker 1: those years, and then they won it the next year,
- 42:36Speaker 1: and then they probably should have won it the next year.
- 42:38Speaker 1: So it's not like, you know, it's not like the
- 42:40Speaker 1: Cowboys flourished and they didn't. That's where the Cowboys have
- 42:45Speaker 1: got to make sure that they they stay at that
- 42:47Speaker 1: same level too. Let's go to one more break here
- 42:49Speaker 1: on Cowboys storyline. I'll be right back after this, all right,

- 44:12Speaker 1: get back to the phone lines. We've got Jeremy in
- 44:14Speaker 1: Salt Lake. What's up, Jeremy?
- 44:17Speaker 16: Hey, what's going on?
- 44:18Speaker 14: Nick?
- 44:18Speaker 1: How you doing?
- 44:19Speaker 16: I'm doing good? Man, doing good. Last week I was
- 44:23Speaker 16: a little over zelist to a pick. You know, we
- 44:26Speaker 16: did score forty points, but you yeah, we didn't keep
- 44:31Speaker 16: from nothing.
- 44:33Speaker 11: That's all right, so like forty yeah, yeah, so it's
- 44:36Speaker 11: half right, right, But yeah, this week's got me a
- 44:40Speaker 11: little perplexed, just because I don't know what team we're
- 44:43Speaker 11: going to see out there.
- 44:45Speaker 16: I'm with everybody, dude. The defense, oh man, it was
- 44:50Speaker 16: just a rough, rough going. I've said before, there's nothing
- 44:55Speaker 16: worse than watching your team get run on all the time.
- 44:58Speaker 16: But a close second to that is watching multiple bombs,
- 45:03Speaker 16: you know, get completed and watch your secondary get shredded
- 45:07Speaker 16: like that. So it was kind of a painful, ugly
- 45:10Speaker 16: game to watch. The officiating. Once again, I'm gonna say
- 45:14Speaker 16: it again that that was not an interception. I think
- 45:17Speaker 16: you alluded to something on a Monday, but like it
- 45:21Speaker 16: was weird because if you were watching from home, Nick
- 45:24Speaker 16: like it happened. They showed the replay, they showed the
- 45:28Speaker 16: ball get trapped and moved, and no one said anything.
- 45:33Speaker 16: They just moved on to the next thing. I was
- 45:35Speaker 16: sitting at the bar and everybody at the bar was like, Oh,
- 45:37Speaker 16: that's gonna get overturned. Everyone was looking at them, and
- 45:40Speaker 16: they just kind of ignored the whole thing. I know
- 45:43Speaker 16: they don't like to make the refs look bad, but man,
- 45:46Speaker 16: you got to say something at least. But anyway, besides that,
- 45:50Speaker 16: the big thing I want to talk about is everybody
- 45:52Speaker 16: talking about these draft picks. And we were on the
- 45:56Speaker 16: spaces last week and I kind of made the analogy that,
- 45:59Speaker 16: you know, Rob's kind of like a fourteen year old
- 46:02Speaker 16: kid that just got one hundred bucks in his pocket,
- 46:04Speaker 16: you know what I mean. He wants to go blow
- 46:06Speaker 16: it all in the first you know, first week he
- 46:10Speaker 16: has it Like I don't know what his obsession with
- 46:14Speaker 16: Trey Hendrickson is, but like I get that we need
- 46:19Speaker 16: a little bit more juice in the pass rush. But
- 46:22Speaker 16: let's see what Clowny does. Let's see what I mean
- 46:24Speaker 16: We're only two games in and we're already talking about
- 46:27Speaker 16: trading away the whole future. I would like for us
- 46:31Speaker 16: to sit there and take those picks, I think. I mean, obviously,
- 46:35Speaker 16: you know, if we can move up and get a
- 46:36Speaker 16: special player or whatever, but let's trust the front office.
- 46:41Speaker 16: They've actually done a really good job in the draft.
- 46:44Speaker 16: People don't give us enough credit. Even our own fans
- 46:47Speaker 16: don't give us enough credit for how well we draft.
- 46:50Speaker 16: And I want to see us just sit there and
- 46:53Speaker 16: take those picks, you know, and then we'll just cheer
- 46:56Speaker 16: against Green Bay all year and hope for him, you know,
- 46:59Speaker 16: to lose as many games as possible. But all right,
- 47:02Speaker 16: I just don't, Yeah, don't see the point and blowing
- 47:04Speaker 16: and blowing your whole wad first week? You got it,
- 47:07Speaker 16: you know what I mean?
- 47:07Speaker 1: So all right, sounds good, Thanks, thanks for the call,
- 47:10Speaker 1: you know, I I let's wait and see. I'm obviously
- 47:14Speaker 1: I'm not We're not there about draft stuff, but I mean,
- 47:16Speaker 1: I think we got to let a lot of things
- 47:18Speaker 1: play out. See what what you need and where you
- 47:22Speaker 1: might be picking, and where those picks are going to be.
- 47:24Speaker 1: But you know, if you see an option right now
- 47:27Speaker 1: to get a guy, that's probably going to be better,
- 47:30Speaker 1: you know. I think that's what happened with Mario Cooper
- 47:32Speaker 1: is they thought that receivers from the next class weren't
- 47:35Speaker 1: going to be that great, and they had a chance
- 47:36Speaker 1: to get one right then, and that it could help
- 47:38Speaker 1: the team, and it did. It sparked the team. Let's
- 47:40Speaker 1: go one more. Caller Irene in Falls Church, Virginia.
- 47:43Speaker 19: Hey, good morning, all right, real quick, I think this
- 47:46Speaker 19: game comes down to red zone efficiency and penalties. Uh,
- 47:49Speaker 19: They've been perfect on offense in the red zone. We've
- 47:52Speaker 19: been doing really well, doing great as well. Our red
- 47:56Speaker 19: zone defense stepped up last week but was aided by penalties.
- 47:59Speaker 19: So I looked the Bears.
- 48:00Speaker 7: They have twenty.
- 48:01Speaker 19: Accepted penalties first two games, so that bodes well. Give
- 48:04Speaker 19: me thirty seven thirty one Dallas.
- 48:06Speaker 1: All right, thanks, I mean ye captain uh, one of
- 48:10Speaker 1: our four captains from last year's storyline team. She's great.
- 48:14Speaker 1: Thanks for calling in and being quick about it. Thirty
- 48:17Speaker 1: seven to thirty one. But I could see something like that.
- 48:19Speaker 1: I could see a game back and forth. You know,
- 48:22Speaker 1: we'll see what the weather looks like and also what
- 48:24Speaker 1: the wins look like. As far as the kicking game goes,
- 48:28Speaker 1: you know, don't be surprised if it's not exactly the same.
- 48:32Speaker 1: I don't think a sixty four yarder is probably going
- 48:34Speaker 1: to go as well in Chicago. You know, look at
- 48:38Speaker 1: look at the sixty yard field goals in the NFL
- 48:40Speaker 1: history or even you know, with the range for fifty.
- 48:44Speaker 1: I just don't remember a ton of them happening in Chicago.
- 48:50Speaker 1: Not to say that that won't happen, but I'm just saying,
- 48:52Speaker 1: you know, the kicking game is going to be that's
- 48:54Speaker 1: going to be a challenge, field position, punts, things like that. Again,
- 48:59Speaker 1: I don't think the forecast calls for you know, like
- 49:02Speaker 1: wind gusts or anything like that, but that's kind of
- 49:05Speaker 1: what they're what they're known for. So but but throwing
- 49:09Speaker 1: the ball around, and I still think it's possible. I
- 49:11Speaker 1: think both teams are going to move the ball and score.
- 49:13Speaker 1: And I think looking at the scores, you guys have
- 49:16Speaker 1: predicting somewhat of a high scoring game with all of
- 49:20Speaker 1: these picks so far have the Cowboys winning, So hopefully
- 49:23Speaker 1: you guys are right. Let's talk about it again on Friday.
- 49:26Speaker 1: We'll do a little bit more predictions. We'll talk whatever
- 49:29Speaker 1: you guys want to chat about, and it'll be a
- 49:31Speaker 1: lot of fun. So for Chris Beam, I'm Nick eating.
- 49:33Speaker 1: We'll see tomorrow on Cowboys storyline.
- 49:35Speaker 2: This has been a production of dallascowboys dot Com and
- 49:38Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys Football Club
