- 2:50Speaker 7: So I don't want to take up too much of
- 2:52Speaker 7: your time. I know you have a bunch of callers.
- 2:53Speaker 8: You're good.
- 2:54Speaker 7: I just wanted to talk about even though our Thanksgiving
- 2:57Speaker 7: here in Canada is at the same time, I wanted
- 2:59Speaker 7: to talk about my best Thanksgiving memory. I know it's
- 3:02Speaker 7: a couple of weeks late, but I've been to a
- 3:04Speaker 7: couple of games down down in Dallas, and in twenty ten,
- 3:09Speaker 7: I went to the New Orleans Thanksgiving game, and the
- 3:13Speaker 7: memory I had was actually the night before I actually
- 3:15Speaker 7: got to meet you and Derek and da Wall at
- 3:19Speaker 7: one of those autographs signing things there.
- 3:22Speaker 2: Yeah, oh yeah, that was yeah, that was pretty cool.
- 3:26Speaker 7: And you even told me. I came up and I
- 3:27Speaker 7: spoke to you, and you even told me that you
- 3:29Speaker 7: hardly did those anymore, and you just happened to do
- 3:32Speaker 7: it that day. So I was looking to meet you.
- 3:35Speaker 2: What city was that in?
- 3:38Speaker 4: That was in Dallas?
- 3:39Speaker 7: That was okay, Dallas?
- 3:41Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, I got you.
- 3:42Speaker 7: I think it was twenty ten against the Saints.
- 3:44Speaker 2: Okay, yep, yeah we did. We don't do that a
- 3:47Speaker 2: whole lot. I mean I know that they still do that,
- 3:49Speaker 2: but not not a ton. So yeah, that's awesome.
- 3:53Speaker 7: And I have I have a player that I want
- 3:57Speaker 7: to know if you will remember, I've been hoping no
- 3:59Speaker 7: one said end up trying to stump you a little bit,
- 4:01Speaker 7: which might be impossible, but r V Irvin.
- 4:06Speaker 2: Corey Irvin or v Corvy Irvin. Yeah, yeah, that's a stumper.
- 4:13Speaker 2: I want to say. I want to say defensive tackle,
- 4:18Speaker 2: but I don't. Was he the beauty got up? I
- 4:22Speaker 2: remember him sort of but not not not really what
- 4:27Speaker 2: I couldn't I couldn't tell you much about him. Did
- 4:29Speaker 2: he play much?
- 4:30Speaker 7: No, it was a year obviously a lot of injuries
- 4:33Speaker 7: that he got. He got signed, oh hopefully too much.
- 4:37Speaker 2: Was that that was the year that they just signed
- 4:39Speaker 2: like one hundred defensive tackles, like they just guess that
- 4:42Speaker 2: was two thousand and thirteen, something like that something like that.
- 4:47Speaker 7: Yeah, or why why why I know him is that
- 4:50Speaker 7: I actually met him because now he coaches for the
- 4:54Speaker 7: Montreal Alouettes, and I met him and we actually kind
- 4:57Speaker 7: of became friends. And actually they just want the Great
- 5:00Speaker 7: Cup up here this year.
- 5:01Speaker 2: So nice thought, Corvy. You're right, Corvy Irvin defensive tackle,
- 5:06Speaker 2: Georgia twenty thirteen. Yeah, those a year. They just had
- 5:09Speaker 2: so many injuries and they kept just bringing them, bringing
- 5:11Speaker 2: them through. And yeah, all right, you got me on
- 5:13Speaker 2: that one. I mean I kind of remember, but not much.
- 5:15Speaker 2: But then again, but you got it. He didn't he
- 5:17Speaker 2: didn't say he wouldn't hear that long, So awesome.
- 5:21Speaker 7: Okay, So I'll get to my question for you. Obviously,
- 5:24Speaker 7: this is a big game coming up this week, and
- 5:27Speaker 7: with everything that happened last night, I saw in the
- 5:31Speaker 7: Seattle game, I'm not sure if Gilmore and Bland switch
- 5:37Speaker 7: sides or if they were traveling, if Gilmour was traveling
- 5:42Speaker 7: with DK Metcalf. And since DK Metcalf and AJ Brown
- 5:46Speaker 7: are kind of similar size receivers, do you think that
- 5:48Speaker 7: they might do that again this week?
- 5:50Speaker 2: Well, I think whatever they did against Seattle, I think
- 5:53Speaker 2: you need to throw that away. I mean, like, I.
- 5:56Speaker 7: Not necessarily in the second half because they kind.
- 5:59Speaker 2: Of true and half, yeah, they got better on it,
- 6:02Speaker 2: but but I mean also Seattle sort of changed their
- 6:04Speaker 2: game plan a little bit. But here's the thing, dan
- 6:06Speaker 2: Quinn doesn't really do that that whole lot. He's gonna
- 6:09Speaker 2: switch around what he does even within the game. I
- 6:12Speaker 2: think there's times where you did see Gilmore travel, you
- 6:15Speaker 2: did see Bland kind of move around. But that's they're interchangeable.
- 6:18Speaker 2: They can do that, and I don't think dan Quinn
- 6:20Speaker 2: wants to get, you know, anyone to have a beat
- 6:22Speaker 2: on what they're actually doing. So there's not gonna be
- 6:25Speaker 2: like one way like he's got him and you know,
- 6:29Speaker 2: and that's the way it is. I don't think that
- 6:30Speaker 2: that's the way they're gonna handle it, because how can
- 6:33Speaker 2: you do that when when you have DeVante Smith on
- 6:36Speaker 2: the other side, I mean, he could he could hurt
- 6:38Speaker 2: you too. That's what makes Philly so good anytime you
- 6:41Speaker 2: have multiple receivers like that.
- 6:43Speaker 7: But that's why I kind of felt Seattle's receivers are
- 6:46Speaker 7: close to They're close the same instence of they have
- 6:50Speaker 7: the dj DK metcalf with the side and then you
- 6:52Speaker 7: have in Jigba. Yeah, and then you have Locker that are,
- 6:55Speaker 7: i mean, not quite as fast as Smith, but they're
- 6:57Speaker 7: still kind of speedy receivers. So I'm wondering if they
- 7:00Speaker 7: might make that approach. But either way, it's a big game. Sure,
- 7:03Speaker 7: hopefully we get it done and get tied for first place.
- 7:07Speaker 2: That's right, all right, thanks for the call there. I'll
- 7:09Speaker 2: appreciate that good stuff. All right, let's get moving here.
- 7:12Speaker 2: Michaels in Colton, California. It sounds like a familiar our
- 7:16Speaker 2: new new name, Michael, Colton, California.
- 7:20Speaker 9: No, it's just the same name. Nick. I'm a repeat caller.
- 7:23Speaker 9: Ah yeah, yes, sir, I'm yeah.
- 7:27Speaker 2: But you know what, you still get it. Here we go,
- 7:29Speaker 2: you still get Mike. There we go. What's that Mike?
- 7:35Speaker 9: Hey, Nick, I just want to say something real quick
- 7:38Speaker 9: and then ask you a question. I just want to say,
- 7:41Speaker 9: you know, I think that right now we're actually starting
- 7:43Speaker 9: to click on all cylinders, and hopefully you know that
- 7:47Speaker 9: says a sense of this playoff run, you know what
- 7:49Speaker 9: I mean, and we could actually do something instead of
- 7:52Speaker 9: you know, the repeat history that's been going on for
- 7:55Speaker 9: the last almost thirty years or so. But anyways, Also
- 7:59Speaker 9: my question you is I was on the RJ and
- 8:03Speaker 9: Everybody Else show the other day in the morning.
- 8:06Speaker 10: I love that show.
- 8:06Speaker 9: By the way, I'm just kiddous when I'll treat a
- 8:08Speaker 9: fan and I pose a question to them, but I
- 8:12Speaker 9: didn't get an answer. But I would like to hear
- 8:14Speaker 9: your opinion. I think, when it's all said and done,
- 8:17Speaker 9: I think CD Lamb had the potential to be the
- 8:19Speaker 9: best receiver to ever wear the eighty eight. And I
- 8:23Speaker 9: don't say that lightly because I seen Michael Irvin playing.
- 8:26Speaker 9: He was a man, he was a beast. He was
- 8:28Speaker 9: like Deon Sanders says, he was a dog straight up,
- 8:30Speaker 9: you know. And Jed Bryant, man, he was awesome, but
- 8:33Speaker 9: he was but he was also kind of one dimensional.
- 8:35Speaker 9: And I mean no disrespect at all, because Jaz Bryant
- 8:37Speaker 9: was awesome man, you know, with them back shoulder face.
- 8:40Speaker 9: But I think CD Lamb is complete all the way around.
- 8:43Speaker 9: You know, he's a route runner, he's a technician, he
- 8:47Speaker 9: got hands.
- 8:47Speaker 2: Let me ask you this. Let me ask you this,
- 8:49Speaker 2: real quick, real quick. Who's the best quarterback in Cowboys history?
- 8:54Speaker 11: Oh?
- 8:54Speaker 5: Aikman's say why?
- 8:57Speaker 9: I mean, just the winners win, you know what he he.
- 9:01Speaker 2: Okay, there you go, and then and there it is.
- 9:04Speaker 2: I just kind of set you up for that. That's
- 9:06Speaker 2: the thing because Romo Romo's got better stats. Danny White
- 9:09Speaker 2: had better stats, but they didn't win championships. And that's
- 9:12Speaker 2: all I'm saying. You are right. Talent wise, Ceedee Lamb
- 9:15Speaker 2: might might be the best, he might end up having
- 9:17Speaker 2: the best stats, but if he doesn't lead them, he
- 9:20Speaker 2: if he's not the heart and soul on three championship teams,
- 9:24Speaker 2: it's gonna be hard to beat Michael Irvin. You know
- 9:26Speaker 2: what I'm saying. No, I'm not trying to get you.
- 9:29Speaker 2: I'm just trying to to say that's that's how we
- 9:32Speaker 2: qualify things. And if eight men installed back do it
- 9:34Speaker 2: for you because of the Super Bowls, then it's hard
- 9:37Speaker 2: to beat Pearson and Irvin just with stats alone. You
- 9:40Speaker 2: gotta be like head and shoulders above the rest. So
- 9:43Speaker 2: he's got a challenge there, you know. But but but
- 9:46Speaker 2: but for what you're saying about just an absolute playmaker. Sorry,
- 9:51Speaker 2: I don't really want to steal Michael's term like that,
- 9:53Speaker 2: but but that's what ced is. You're not wrong there,
- 9:57Speaker 2: It's just that how we view players is going to
- 9:59Speaker 2: be hard to to, you know, to unseat them at
- 10:03Speaker 2: the top, because they have those shiny fingers that these
- 10:07Speaker 2: current players do not have.
- 10:09Speaker 9: So that that was a great answer, Nickname. Hey, one
- 10:12Speaker 9: more thing, please, I want to send a shout out
- 10:15Speaker 9: to my son Eli. Today's birthday. He's a huge Cowboys fan. Man,
- 10:19Speaker 9: he watches the game with me every weekend, and I
- 10:21Speaker 9: just want to say, Happy birthday to Eli.
- 10:22Speaker 2: That's awesome. Happy birthday to Eli. Good good stuff. All right, Michael,
- 10:28Speaker 2: all right, man, that's pretty that's uh yeah, I mean
- 10:33Speaker 2: Michael naming his kid Eli obviously going up against you know,
- 10:37Speaker 2: the Giants so many times, Eli Manning. I'm just kidding.
- 10:41Speaker 2: I love that. Happy birthday to Eli. All right, Let's
- 10:44Speaker 2: roll to Brian in Pennsylvania. Brian, Hey, how you doing.
- 10:48Speaker 2: How's everyone in Pennsylvania today?
- 10:51Speaker 4: I'll tell you what darness thing happened. I woke up
- 10:53Speaker 4: this morning and the no birch turping outside, no, none
- 10:57Speaker 4: of that noise that I usually hear on a Monday.
- 11:00Speaker 2: Wow.
- 11:00Speaker 4: They hate It's been real quiet. I hate that wondering
- 11:03Speaker 4: if everyone's okay.
- 11:04Speaker 12: You know.
- 11:04Speaker 2: The thing about it is, it's like the Cowboys aren't
- 11:06Speaker 2: sitting around gloating because they're like, yeah, been there, done that.
- 11:10Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's the thing. It's good and bad
- 11:13Speaker 2: because it's like, uh, nice to see the Eagles kind
- 11:15Speaker 2: of get it handed to them, but also it's like, well, yeah,
- 11:18Speaker 2: they did it to you as well, and so now
- 11:20Speaker 2: we know who. Now we know who the cream of
- 11:22Speaker 2: the crop is right now in the NFC. I mean
- 11:24Speaker 2: there's no there's no doubt about it. And when they
- 11:27Speaker 2: want to play, you know, they turn it into a fight,
- 11:31Speaker 2: and they did, and you know the Eagles couldn't handle it.
- 11:34Speaker 2: Of course the Cowboys couldn't either.
- 11:35Speaker 4: So yeah, well, I think the Eagles might be catching
- 11:38Speaker 4: the bug where they've got a lot of talent, but
- 11:40Speaker 4: they're not. I mean, like, even all the games they've
- 11:42Speaker 4: won this year been really ugly. They haven't really been
- 11:44Speaker 4: living up to it that old Cowboys adage of you know,
- 11:47Speaker 4: play good with good teams but then just barely squeak
- 11:50Speaker 4: by other team playing down to their competition. But it
- 11:52Speaker 4: isn't an Eagles show. This is a Cowboys show, that's right.
- 11:55Speaker 2: That's right.
- 11:57Speaker 4: What I wanted to call and talk about today was
- 12:00Speaker 4: I think that everybody staff Ryders, fans, everybody included, needs
- 12:04Speaker 4: to stop and say, I'm sorry, Tyrone, he's still the man,
- 12:09Speaker 4: you know what I mean, Like, yeah, actually, the whole
- 12:12Speaker 4: offensive line. I'm sorry, guys, we doubted you. At the
- 12:15Speaker 4: beginning of the season. We kept saying, y'all are holding
- 12:17Speaker 4: us back.
- 12:18Speaker 13: My bad.
- 12:19Speaker 4: Well, you know, because that's been pretty clean and even
- 12:23Speaker 4: with the runs, the run has been opening up these
- 12:26Speaker 4: lanes for Tony Pollard. They're just progressively getting better and
- 12:28Speaker 4: better and better each week as a unit.
- 12:31Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, here's the thing about that, Like, I
- 12:34Speaker 2: don't know if you could just say, well, my bad, guys,
- 12:37Speaker 2: you know, we were wrong, I don't think so. I mean,
- 12:40Speaker 2: they weren't playing well and they were not all healthy either.
- 12:43Speaker 2: I mean that was part of it too. So I
- 12:46Speaker 2: think where you can say my bad would be like
- 12:49Speaker 2: because a lot of times we like to just put
- 12:51Speaker 2: everything into big picture, like if a guy makes a
- 12:54Speaker 2: bad play, it's like he's not any good or he's
- 12:56Speaker 2: lost it. Tyron doesn't have it anymore. Like there's a
- 12:59Speaker 2: difference of saying saying, hey, he's just not himself, or
- 13:03Speaker 2: you know, hopefully he can get back to that point
- 13:05Speaker 2: and That's what a lot of people do. They kind
- 13:06Speaker 2: of just write them off and say, all right, they're
- 13:08Speaker 2: never going to be good. You know, Terrence Field is
- 13:11Speaker 2: never going to get back to one hundred percent again,
- 13:13Speaker 2: and that's that's not the case. And so I think
- 13:16Speaker 2: maybe that's what happened, is they kind of wrote this
- 13:17Speaker 2: offensive line off as being a really good line, and
- 13:21Speaker 2: right now they're playing like a really good line. But
- 13:23Speaker 2: you know what I mean, think about the games they
- 13:25Speaker 2: didn't play so well forty nine Ers Eagles. I mean,
- 13:29Speaker 2: it's a little different, so you know, they kind of
- 13:32Speaker 2: still have to prove that a little bit as well.
- 13:34Speaker 11: Well.
- 13:35Speaker 4: One thing I've noticed that I've been really interested in
- 13:39Speaker 4: is the coaches this year, you know, like the assistant coaches, yeah,
- 13:44Speaker 4: and everybody. The game preparation, I guess, because ever since
- 13:50Speaker 4: the San Francisco game, it seems like every game the
- 13:54Speaker 4: preparation is just up. Where Actually I used to call
- 13:58Speaker 4: earlier and talked about the problems with the team not
- 14:00Speaker 4: being able to adjust, and it seems like, I guess
- 14:03Speaker 4: Dak has a better grass to the offense and the
- 14:06Speaker 4: defense understands what their goals are. So it just seems
- 14:09Speaker 4: like we're able to adjust in games. The one thing
- 14:11Speaker 4: I saw in the Seahawks game was we started to
- 14:14Speaker 4: get some adversity. I'm like, oh, here we go, same
- 14:16Speaker 4: old cowboys. But I saw them adjust and keep fighting.
- 14:20Speaker 4: And I saw this attitude like you're not going to
- 14:22Speaker 4: beat me, or I'm not going to let you win.
- 14:24Speaker 4: You're gonna have to beat me, and that attitude with
- 14:27Speaker 4: like CD and Micah, a lot of people call them arrogant.
- 14:31Speaker 4: I call them both obsessed. They're obsessed with being the
- 14:35Speaker 4: best they can be and they want the opportunity to
- 14:37Speaker 4: help their team out. And that was just something I
- 14:40Speaker 4: was encouraged to see because I don't think we had that.
- 14:43Speaker 4: You know, every once in a while, you get that
- 14:45Speaker 4: bad play and you see Dak just trot off the
- 14:48Speaker 4: field and you're like, oh, same old cowboys, but this
- 14:50Speaker 4: energy and like the way our team is coming together. Yeah,
- 14:55Speaker 4: and played the Seahawks. It was more about the way
- 14:58Speaker 4: they played than the fact that it was the Seahawks.
- 15:00Speaker 4: I know they're a winning team and we needed that
- 15:03Speaker 4: playoff caliber team victory with a hard battles, But something
- 15:06Speaker 4: about this team, you know, I've been trying not say
- 15:10Speaker 4: it all year but something is different. I don't know
- 15:13Speaker 4: who's putting what in the gatorade, but give them a
- 15:16Speaker 4: raise and make sure that they're there, you know.
- 15:18Speaker 2: Yeah, well I appreciate it, thanks for the call. And
- 15:21Speaker 2: you're right, I mean something is different. I mean you
- 15:23Speaker 2: could say what you want about, well, what happens in
- 15:25Speaker 2: the playoffs, and that's what people do. But I mean
- 15:28Speaker 2: I think you have to get there and you can
- 15:30Speaker 2: still say something is different because I mean winning these
- 15:34Speaker 2: games at home like that, I mean blowing blowing teams out.
- 15:38Speaker 2: They've won six games at home and they've scored at
- 15:41Speaker 2: least thirty points in every one of them, and forty
- 15:44Speaker 2: points I think in half of them. So that's a
- 15:48Speaker 2: lot of it's a lot of points that you know,
- 15:50Speaker 2: they're really taking care of business on teams that they
- 15:52Speaker 2: should beat. Aside from the from the Arizona game. But
- 15:56Speaker 2: like like you'd said before, I mean that offensive line
- 15:59Speaker 2: is now coming together. That offensive line wasn't even you know,
- 16:02Speaker 2: existing in that game. So that wasn't even close to
- 16:05Speaker 2: what we're used to seeing here. So all right, let's uh,
- 16:09Speaker 2: let's keep it rolling here. We've got Allen. He's in
- 16:11Speaker 2: Long Island, New York Alan.
- 16:13Speaker 14: Hey, Nick, good morning. Second, all right, how you doing
- 16:18Speaker 14: doing well? Doing well? Just a quick question about Shack Leonard.
- 16:21Speaker 14: I'm not sure if you're sick of hearing his name
- 16:23Speaker 14: or like that, but uh, I just want to know
- 16:26Speaker 14: what's the vibe in the building.
- 16:27Speaker 5: What are you hearing? I think if you if you're.
- 16:31Speaker 2: Allowed to tell us, well, I mean, the vibe is
- 16:34Speaker 2: that it would be nice to have him. That would
- 16:36Speaker 2: be that that they want him. It'd be nice to
- 16:39Speaker 2: have him. This isn't this isn't going. This isn't the
- 16:42Speaker 2: Charles Haley move that that put the Cowboys over the top.
- 16:44Speaker 2: You know, it's it's not that they they recognize what
- 16:49Speaker 2: you know, everyone can see, you know, the same stuff
- 16:52Speaker 2: from the medical you know, he's got some back surgery,
- 16:56Speaker 2: his knees aren't the best, He's had concussions. I mean,
- 16:59Speaker 2: he's this guy's beat up a little bit. But they
- 17:01Speaker 2: still feel like he's a talented player that can help
- 17:04Speaker 2: on a position. You know, a team that that that
- 17:06Speaker 2: could use him. You know, both the Cowboys and the
- 17:09Speaker 2: Eagles have you know, some some depth issues at linebacker,
- 17:14Speaker 2: and so that's kind of why this is where it's
- 17:16Speaker 2: not one of those things where I got to beat you.
- 17:18Speaker 2: So if you want him, then I want him. It's
- 17:20Speaker 2: just one of those things where here's two teams that
- 17:22Speaker 2: are fighting each other this week, but they both need
- 17:25Speaker 2: some help at linebacker. But I don't think either one
- 17:28Speaker 2: of them is going to break the bank to get him, honestly.
- 17:30Speaker 14: Got now, what do you what do you like? Obviously
- 17:32Speaker 14: it's between us and the Eagles. What would in your
- 17:37Speaker 14: professional opinion, what would make him choose the Eagles over us?
- 17:40Speaker 14: I mean, obviously we have the better facility. We have,
- 17:42Speaker 14: you know, the Jones family as our own, as the
- 17:44Speaker 14: owners we have, you know, Michael Parsons, we have, you know,
- 17:48Speaker 14: Stefan Fillmore, et cetera. The only thing I'd be concerned
- 17:51Speaker 14: about is is he concerned that, you know, dan Quinn
- 17:53Speaker 14: would leave after this season if if we even sign
- 17:55Speaker 14: him pack past the season? But what do you think
- 17:57Speaker 14: about that?
- 17:57Speaker 2: Like I would, it would be somewhat the two vegles. Well,
- 18:01Speaker 2: I mean some some long term stability as well, you know,
- 18:04Speaker 2: like what what what kind of deal is it? Is
- 18:06Speaker 2: it a deal that would you know help me?
- 18:08Speaker 5: You know?
- 18:08Speaker 2: Long term? You know, do you have money next year
- 18:12Speaker 2: that that you can pay, maybe not so much this year,
- 18:14Speaker 2: but maybe some next year. Also, defensive tackles, he could
- 18:17Speaker 2: look at the guys in front of them. Every linebacker
- 18:19Speaker 2: that's ever been great has probably had some really good
- 18:21Speaker 2: defensive tackles in front of him that kind of can
- 18:23Speaker 2: keep the trash off of them. So maybe maybe that
- 18:26Speaker 2: is something he would look at too. They got some
- 18:28Speaker 2: big boys over there in the middle, sort of the Cowboys,
- 18:30Speaker 2: I mean, just don't act like Hankins and Osa and
- 18:33Speaker 2: Mozzi and these guys. I mean, they got strength, They
- 18:35Speaker 2: got big guys as well. But I mean Philly, Philly
- 18:37Speaker 2: definitely does with those players and Fletcher Cox of course,
- 18:41Speaker 2: but also with Jordan Davis and I know, I know
- 18:44Speaker 2: miss Jalen Carter. I mean, like they have some so
- 18:47Speaker 2: that that could be part of it as well. I mean,
- 18:49Speaker 2: there's just a lot of different factors there. And they're
- 18:52Speaker 2: a really good team as well. I mean they're they're
- 18:54Speaker 2: they're a little bit ahead of the Cowboys right now.
- 18:56Speaker 2: So you know, if he decides he wants to go there,
- 18:59Speaker 2: I know he knows Nick. He's just like he has
- 19:01Speaker 2: some people that he knows here. So at the end
- 19:04Speaker 2: of the day, he's gonna have to make that decision,
- 19:05Speaker 2: and you know, if they make it, it's good. If
- 19:08Speaker 2: the Cowboys get them, that'll be a good thing. I'm
- 19:10Speaker 2: not saying it wouldn't be I think because they want him,
- 19:12Speaker 2: it would be a good thing. But also won't be
- 19:14Speaker 2: the end of the world if if he doesn't go here,
- 19:15Speaker 2: and if he signs with Philly. I don't think anyone's
- 19:17Speaker 2: going to be too heartbroken on either side of this.
- 19:20Speaker 2: This is a player that you know, he needs to
- 19:22Speaker 2: kind of come in and and and help with the
- 19:24Speaker 2: run defense. All right, good stuff there, Thanks for the call, Allen.
- 19:29Speaker 2: I've got a text question here from five to one
- 19:32Speaker 2: six number, no name, But he says, I remember the
- 19:34Speaker 2: narrative that we can't pay Dak because he needs great
- 19:37Speaker 2: players around him to be successful. Can we put that
- 19:40Speaker 2: to bed now? After watching the homes and then in
- 19:43Speaker 2: the past few weeks, Yeah, I mean they they they've
- 19:46Speaker 2: struggled some as well, and they they've kind of thrown
- 19:49Speaker 2: different players at it, and you know, they're still really
- 19:52Speaker 2: good though. I mean, I mean, they're still a really
- 19:54Speaker 2: good team. That wouldn't be a team I would want
- 19:57Speaker 2: to face, you know, if I was in the AFC,
- 19:59Speaker 2: So let's not say that that's you know, the issue.
- 20:02Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean all all quarterbacks need need some help.
- 20:06Speaker 2: I mean, and and Mahomes has always had it. Now,
- 20:08Speaker 2: I mean he's got one of the greatest tight ends
- 20:10Speaker 2: to ever play, so I mean he does have I mean,
- 20:13Speaker 2: Mahomes has help for sure. So anyways, but yeah, I
- 20:17Speaker 2: mean I think they want to keep back and they
- 20:19Speaker 2: want to keep the great players around him. And who
- 20:22Speaker 2: cares if it's well that he needs him to help
- 20:24Speaker 2: him or doesn't matter. Get them both in there, all right, Sam?
- 20:28Speaker 2: And Seattle's our next caller, Sam, what's up?
- 20:32Speaker 15: And how's it going good?
- 20:34Speaker 2: How are you pretty good?
- 20:36Speaker 15: Up here in Seattle? The NFL has made it clear
- 20:40Speaker 15: for me to watch more Cowboys with flexing the the
- 20:43Speaker 15: Seahawks Eagles to Monday night so I don't have to
- 20:46Speaker 15: worry about them getting in the way of Buffalo, and
- 20:48Speaker 15: yeah Sunday and putting Seattle in Dallas on Thursday night
- 20:54Speaker 15: so I.
- 20:54Speaker 16: Can watch it on local TV, all right.
- 20:56Speaker 15: Yeah, yeah, and you know about Seattle, I kind of
- 21:00Speaker 15: want them to go on a run now.
- 21:01Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, you know I thought that too.
- 21:04Speaker 2: Of Hey, don't don't you know, keep your head up,
- 21:07Speaker 2: keep your head up over there, Gino, like, you know,
- 21:09Speaker 2: want you to play well against the forty nine ers.
- 21:11Speaker 2: Of course the Eagles, you know, I mean, like do
- 21:14Speaker 2: that and just make a few more plays. I mean, yeah,
- 21:16Speaker 2: everybody's kind of thinking the same way about Seattle go win.
- 21:21Speaker 15: Yeah yeah, and so, uh just want to add it
- 21:26Speaker 15: seems like, you know, just how different it is now
- 21:30Speaker 15: versus the first four games of the year when we
- 21:33Speaker 15: were talking about tennis coast offense and then oh, tight
- 21:37Speaker 15: ends aren't catching balls? Oh red zone offense so great,
- 21:42Speaker 15: you know, now we're just like, oh, first play, first
- 21:45Speaker 15: drive of.
- 21:46Speaker 10: The game, deep ball, deep ball, right?
- 21:48Speaker 15: Not so to me, this is like a DAK coast
- 21:51Speaker 15: offense now.
- 21:53Speaker 2: That coast I like it. Uh, And it's definitely remember
- 21:57Speaker 2: the term DAK friendly. I mean it definitely has been that.
- 22:00Speaker 2: And there's a lot of things. There is a lot
- 22:03Speaker 2: of chicken and egg type theories, you know, Or is
- 22:06Speaker 2: Ferguson playing better because CD is a CD playing better
- 22:11Speaker 2: because they has more weapons around him? It doesn't matter,
- 22:14Speaker 2: I mean either way. I mean, Dak is continuing to
- 22:18Speaker 2: throw it to who is open, I mean, scoonmaker, He'll
- 22:20Speaker 2: still throw it to him. He throws it to Jalen Tolber,
- 22:23Speaker 2: he throws it to Rico Dad all out of the backfield.
- 22:25Speaker 2: I mean, he throws it to the guys that are open.
- 22:28Speaker 2: So and the thing is is they're getting more plays,
- 22:31Speaker 2: and then CD is still getting twelve catches, ten catches,
- 22:34Speaker 2: leven catches. I mean, it's unbelievable. I counted. I think
- 22:36Speaker 2: he's got forty four catches in the month of November.
- 22:40Speaker 2: I need to go talk to our pr staff about
- 22:41Speaker 2: that and see is that the most I mean, forty
- 22:44Speaker 2: four catches in one month, and I did have the
- 22:46Speaker 2: extra game by playing on that Thursday night. That's a
- 22:49Speaker 2: lot of catches though, in one month. So I mean,
- 22:52Speaker 2: that's that's been. It's been a really good thing. But
- 22:54Speaker 2: not to the detriment of other players. I guess you
- 22:57Speaker 2: could say Michael Gallup, Michael Gallup really just doesn't have
- 22:59Speaker 2: a whole lot of stats. But that's that's it.
- 23:02Speaker 15: Really, Yeah, Michael Gallup's really the one thing from the
- 23:06Speaker 15: beginning of the year. That's still a question now.
- 23:09Speaker 2: But but he's the perfect guy for that role. If
- 23:15Speaker 2: if you think about to cover him right right, and
- 23:18Speaker 2: if you think about wide receivers that have had success,
- 23:21Speaker 2: and he's had some success one thousand yards in his career,
- 23:25Speaker 2: I mean, I mean in the thousand yards season. But
- 23:27Speaker 2: the fact that he's not getting a lot of you know,
- 23:29Speaker 2: balls his way and all that stuff. He's still though.
- 23:32Speaker 2: He's not a guy that's gonna sit and pout. He's
- 23:34Speaker 2: gonna be he's going to make a play for you,
- 23:36Speaker 2: like like he is. He's not going to be a
- 23:38Speaker 2: problem in the locker room. And that's a good thing.
- 23:40Speaker 2: Maybe he's making more money than you would want that
- 23:42Speaker 2: guy to be, but I'm saying, you're going to need
- 23:45Speaker 2: a play for Michael Gallup and and he'll deliver it
- 23:48Speaker 2: for you. So it's not the worst thing in the
- 23:50Speaker 2: world to have him kind of you know, kind of
- 23:52Speaker 2: just lurking back a little bit. He'll make a big play.
- 23:55Speaker 2: So all right, appreciate the call. Thanks Sam. Good stuff.
- 24:00Speaker 5: Here.
- 24:00Speaker 2: Let's see, uh got another question here. This is from
- 24:05Speaker 2: Dan and Philly. He says, not all people from Philly.
- 24:10Speaker 2: I'm gonna read it. I don't care. Not all people
- 24:13Speaker 2: from Philly are ass hats like the Eagles fans at
- 24:15Speaker 2: the games. They give the city a bad name. This
- 24:18Speaker 2: is gonna be a crazy week here. That's it. That's it.
- 24:22Speaker 2: I love it. Yeah, I mean one hundred percent. I
- 24:26Speaker 2: remember I remember one of the first jokes I ever got.
- 24:29Speaker 2: It was like reading in the newspaper. I was like,
- 24:31Speaker 2: I don't know, eleven or twelve years old, and it
- 24:33Speaker 2: said like a Christmas lish a Christmas like list, you know,
- 24:37Speaker 2: for everybody at eight men needs more blockers for Christmas
- 24:41Speaker 2: and whatever, and Jerry Jones needs whatever. And it was
- 24:44Speaker 2: like the Eagles need to see in the l back
- 24:46Speaker 2: in class. And it was one of the first jokes
- 24:48Speaker 2: I ever gotten. I loved it, and it's it's so true.
- 24:51Speaker 2: So there you go. All right, let's go to Dylan Northport, Florida.
- 24:57Speaker 7: What's up, hey, dude, how's it?
- 24:59Speaker 16: Gun good?
- 25:00Speaker 2: How are you?
- 25:01Speaker 16: I'm good, I'm good.
- 25:02Speaker 17: It's a funny story here for I could go. And
- 25:04Speaker 17: I was at a hunting trip this last week and
- 25:07Speaker 17: we're up in the cabin up and upstate New York
- 25:09Speaker 17: and it's my brothers. He doesn't have cable TV or
- 25:13Speaker 17: anything up there, right, So I brought this little gizmo
- 25:15Speaker 17: to hook my phone up to the TV. And I'm hoping,
- 25:17Speaker 17: I'm praying I got cell service because I haven't missed
- 25:19Speaker 17: the game in twenty years, you know. So I plugging in,
- 25:21Speaker 17: plugging in the TV. There's nothing, man, nothing at all.
- 25:24Speaker 17: It's like there's no data signal. Nothing don't work. So
- 25:27Speaker 17: I'm like, I'm hoping, I'm praying I can put it
- 25:29Speaker 17: as high as I can up in that cabin. Man
- 25:31Speaker 17: gets some sort of signal. We got We got to
- 25:33Speaker 17: watch the game. We got to watch it with my parents,
- 25:35Speaker 17: my brother, the kids, and on the whole weekend, all
- 25:37Speaker 17: we did. Every single thing we did, it was here
- 25:40Speaker 17: we go, tying our shoes, here we go.
- 25:42Speaker 13: You know.
- 25:43Speaker 17: You guys got to make like some sort of you know,
- 25:45Speaker 17: you guys did a couple of years ago, is Zeke
- 25:47Speaker 17: and then that funny video eating the cereal all that. Yeah,
- 25:49Speaker 17: I gotta do something with Dak and here we go
- 25:51Speaker 17: is just doing little tasks and stuff.
- 25:53Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's true. We Yeah, we've done a couple
- 25:56Speaker 2: of things. And there's been a couple of videos you
- 26:00Speaker 2: might have seen in social media wise. One of them
- 26:02Speaker 2: was the all the players kind of going around doing it,
- 26:05Speaker 2: you know, and then of course that act doesn't even
- 26:07Speaker 2: get into it. And then there's another one that we
- 26:11Speaker 2: put out that was really really good as well. So yeah,
- 26:14Speaker 2: we've done some things, but yeah, maybe you know the
- 26:17Speaker 2: problem is is that he's not cooperative about it. I mean,
- 26:20Speaker 2: I don't know if you remember, and I probably don't,
- 26:23Speaker 2: but way back in training camp we got you know,
- 26:26Speaker 2: we weren't getting callers, we were just getting players to
- 26:30Speaker 2: come in. And the last one of the last days
- 26:32Speaker 2: of training camp, I think it was the very last
- 26:34Speaker 2: day that came in and I asked him right off
- 26:37Speaker 2: the bat. I was just like, let's get started here
- 26:39Speaker 2: or should I say?
- 26:39Speaker 5: Here we go?
- 26:40Speaker 2: And he looked at me. He was like, you what
- 26:42Speaker 2: are you talking about? And I was like, what do
- 26:43Speaker 2: you mean, what are you talking about? And you said
- 26:44Speaker 2: it for three weeks out here? Here we go and
- 26:46Speaker 2: he was like, no, that's not something we talked about.
- 26:49Speaker 2: It was really awkward. I was like, oh, okay, sorry,
- 26:52Speaker 2: moving on and now and now look at it now,
- 26:54Speaker 2: you know, once Aaron Rodgers said it, it's like, oh
- 26:57Speaker 2: now you know of course, because there's meaning behind it too.
- 27:00Speaker 2: It's not just him just saying that. It's it's the
- 27:03Speaker 2: cadence is kind of helping with with you know, with everything, uh,
- 27:07Speaker 2: with with that offense and how how they get how
- 27:09Speaker 2: they get to play started.
- 27:11Speaker 17: Yeah, it's such a unique thing. He's got to trademark
- 27:13Speaker 17: that or something. I'm sure with docent commercials with that
- 27:15Speaker 17: in the off season. But he seems locked in right now.
- 27:17Speaker 5: So I like that.
- 27:20Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 27:21Speaker 17: So Friday, some of the callers they were disappointed with,
- 27:23Speaker 17: you know, the defense and the pass rush. But uh,
- 27:26Speaker 17: just a couple of things about that. The pass rush
- 27:28Speaker 17: was getting there all night. The problem is that Gino
- 27:30Speaker 17: was taking three steps and throwing.
- 27:31Speaker 13: The ball too.
- 27:33Speaker 17: Yeah, and the report, it's funny the report on Gino
- 27:35Speaker 17: all seasons. He holds the ball like all day, way
- 27:37Speaker 17: too long. That he's done an all season And I
- 27:40Speaker 17: said this a couple of weeks ago. I get the Giants.
- 27:41Speaker 17: I'm like, you know, there's teams every year it's bad
- 27:45Speaker 17: teams or teams maybe not bad, but they're not as
- 27:47Speaker 17: good as the Cowboys. And they step up and play
- 27:49Speaker 17: good games against Dallas for multitude of reasons. One is
- 27:51Speaker 17: it the Cowboys. And now you got to see how
- 27:53Speaker 17: it's playing for their their playoff life. And it's like
- 27:56Speaker 17: these guys formulated a game plan specifically to negate the
- 27:59Speaker 17: best part of this defense, and they did it, but
- 28:01Speaker 17: I mean the pass rush was still it was still
- 28:02Speaker 17: getting there. They threw it from sat on the TV.
- 28:04Speaker 17: It's like the pass rush was getting it faster than
- 28:06Speaker 17: any team's gotten after any quarterback all season. But the
- 28:09Speaker 17: problem was that the throws were still quick. Either throw
- 28:11Speaker 17: it incomplete or get it out quick on a slant
- 28:14Speaker 17: or in route or something like that. And you know,
- 28:16Speaker 17: people were upset with Bland for having a rough game,
- 28:20Speaker 17: but it's like, there's no blueprint. He didn't get exposed.
- 28:22Speaker 17: The blueprint is to have like some genetic freak at
- 28:24Speaker 17: water receiver that was built in a lab.
- 28:26Speaker 6: The dude DK.
- 28:27Speaker 17: He runs like a small guy, like he's quick, he's fast,
- 28:30Speaker 17: but he's built like a Transformer. He's built like Megatron,
- 28:32Speaker 17: like he's he's insane. And Bland's this. He has the speed,
- 28:36Speaker 17: but he's too short. And he saw it on that
- 28:37Speaker 17: one incut.
- 28:38Speaker 7: That DK took to the house.
- 28:40Speaker 17: Blaine was playing underneath leverage, which is dangerous, but if
- 28:43Speaker 17: you want to pick, that's what you got to do.
- 28:44Speaker 17: But the guy catches it. You know, it's the house
- 28:46Speaker 17: called there's no safety, which there wasn't. And that was
- 28:49Speaker 17: just a well thrown ball kind of up and away,
- 28:51Speaker 17: and Bland missed it by a fingernail. He's just too
- 28:53Speaker 17: too short. So I'm not worried about it. Pass Rush
- 28:57Speaker 17: is fine, Bland's fine, and we'll see what happens there,
- 28:59Speaker 17: all right.
- 29:00Speaker 2: Well, I appreciate the call, Dylan, and and and and
- 29:02Speaker 2: you're not wrong on that. I mean, Gina was getting
- 29:04Speaker 2: the ball out really quick. The issue I had was
- 29:06Speaker 2: that usually when you get the ball out super quick
- 29:09Speaker 2: like that, the guys aren't already open. And and that's
- 29:11Speaker 2: the thing that they had it schemed up really well.
- 29:14Speaker 2: It was one of the tougher, tougher matchups just because
- 29:17Speaker 2: they have they have three receivers that that are really good.
- 29:21Speaker 2: I mean, the Eagles, I think have a better receiver
- 29:25Speaker 2: at number one in aj Brown. They have two better
- 29:27Speaker 2: receivers in Brown and Devon day Smith. But when you
- 29:30Speaker 2: talk about three, I think Seattle has you know that
- 29:32Speaker 2: their their third receiver is better than what I think
- 29:35Speaker 2: what the Eagles throw out. So that's that's that's the
- 29:38Speaker 2: thing about them, that they don't have the best in
- 29:40Speaker 2: the game, but they have maybe the best trio. And
- 29:43Speaker 2: that's that's really good. And and and that hurt the
- 29:45Speaker 2: Cowboys all night long. And but got to give Dallas
- 29:48Speaker 2: credit to the last three drives they got off the field.
- 29:51Speaker 2: I mean, they hadn't forced them to punt at all,
- 29:54Speaker 2: and nobody punted in the game. But they couldn't get
- 29:56Speaker 2: off the field, couldn't get a stop until the last
- 29:58Speaker 2: three drives of the game. They did. They got an interception,
- 30:02Speaker 2: then they got the fourth down stop, and they got
- 30:04Speaker 2: another fourth down stop as well. So actually I guess
- 30:08Speaker 2: it was three. No, they didn't get the interception. That
- 30:10Speaker 2: wasn't the last three drives. It was like four out
- 30:12Speaker 2: of five because they did give up a touchdown after
- 30:14Speaker 2: that pick. But the last three drives of the game,
- 30:17Speaker 2: the Cowboys did get off the field. All right, let's
- 30:19Speaker 2: go to text message from Dallas. He's in South Jersey
- 30:25Speaker 2: named Dallas. So do you think we continue to see
- 30:27Speaker 2: Tolbert Turpin increase their snaps in less of Gallup? Probably?
- 30:33Speaker 2: I mean that's I mean, they're all gonna play. I
- 30:36Speaker 2: think Gallup will still get out there and in play.
- 30:39Speaker 2: But but I think Turpin has shown that, you know,
- 30:42Speaker 2: he can he can make some plays for you. I mean,
- 30:44Speaker 2: it's not just deep balls. And we've seen one with
- 30:46Speaker 2: him kind of down the field in Washington. But he's
- 30:49Speaker 2: had a couple of catches there, you know, like inside
- 30:52Speaker 2: the red zone. One for a touchdown against Philly. I
- 30:55Speaker 2: believe that was Philly had a touchdown. It wasn't as
- 30:59Speaker 2: outside of the red zone against the forty nine ers.
- 31:01Speaker 2: But he you know, he's made some plays. He made
- 31:03Speaker 2: something nice catch to the one yard line the other
- 31:06Speaker 2: day at two yard line, so he's he's really he's
- 31:10Speaker 2: really made a lot of strides at offense. And Tolbert
- 31:13Speaker 2: has as well. So yeah, I mean, I think that
- 31:16Speaker 2: they won't say it that way. They'll say it we've
- 31:18Speaker 2: got just we got more weapons that we can throw
- 31:20Speaker 2: out there. All right, let's go to our next caller.
- 31:24Speaker 2: We got Ryan in Tulsa. Ryan.
- 31:27Speaker 4: What's up, Hey, Nick?
- 31:29Speaker 18: How's it going?
- 31:29Speaker 8: Man?
- 31:29Speaker 19: Love your show.
- 31:30Speaker 2: I appreciate it. How are you doing.
- 31:32Speaker 19: I'm doing well?
- 31:33Speaker 5: Hey.
- 31:33Speaker 19: You know, watching in San Francisco yesterday, it struck me
- 31:37Speaker 19: that this is something that needs to be planned out
- 31:40Speaker 19: over not not four or five days, but four or
- 31:43Speaker 19: five weeks, and with that much time remaining until we
- 31:45Speaker 19: might have to face them again. You know a little
- 31:48Speaker 19: more about the inner workings. Do our coaches look ahead
- 31:52Speaker 19: and start planning on how we're going to attack these
- 31:54Speaker 19: guys and how we're going to defend them. And then
- 31:57Speaker 19: my second part was it heard Glazer mentioned Shaq Leonard
- 32:02Speaker 19: was waiting to see kind of what the outcome of
- 32:04Speaker 19: yesterday's game was for the Eagles and if that's the case,
- 32:08Speaker 19: that maybe you'll help us short our our middle because
- 32:12Speaker 19: that seems to be what they attacked and Francisco. But
- 32:16Speaker 19: but it looks like they played way far ahead. They
- 32:20Speaker 19: knew exactly who to attack with the Eagles yesterday.
- 32:23Speaker 2: Yeah, what are.
- 32:24Speaker 19: Your thoughts on that?
- 32:25Speaker 2: Well? Yeah, I think everybody looks ahead. I mean that's
- 32:27Speaker 2: why you have you know, thirty thirty coaches and analytics
- 32:31Speaker 2: and all that. I mean, you you're already scouting ahead.
- 32:34Speaker 2: Now whatever they were doing to scout the forty nine
- 32:37Speaker 2: ers the first time around, maybe maybe you mix that
- 32:39Speaker 2: up because I didn't. That didn't work out so much.
- 32:42Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean I think, and I don't know,
- 32:45Speaker 2: what what does that mean? If Shaq Lenard was waiting
- 32:47Speaker 2: for the weekend, what does that mean? I'm going for
- 32:51Speaker 2: the team that wins. I'm going for the team that
- 32:53Speaker 2: needs me the most. I mean, think about it. The
- 32:57Speaker 2: forty nine ers just smacked the Eagles right in the mouth,
- 33:00Speaker 2: just like they did to Dallas, same thing. And so
- 33:04Speaker 2: it showed right then and there that if this thing,
- 33:06Speaker 2: if this game gets really physical and it becomes a
- 33:09Speaker 2: war in the trenches like that, that San Francisco is
- 33:13Speaker 2: built for it. And you know, the Eagles couldn't handle that.
- 33:16Speaker 2: The Cowboys could not handle it either. Cowboys haven't handled
- 33:18Speaker 2: that in three years. Just kind of taking the fight
- 33:21Speaker 2: like that to you know, to to the to the opponent,
- 33:25Speaker 2: just like the forty nine ers do. So maybe maybe,
- 33:30Speaker 2: you know, maybe the Eagles found out they needed him
- 33:32Speaker 2: a lot more and that's the type of player they want.
- 33:35Speaker 2: Maybe they they up the offer. I don't know. I
- 33:38Speaker 2: don't know what that kind of means. As far as
- 33:40Speaker 2: waiting for the weekend. I think he's just waiting for
- 33:42Speaker 2: the weekend just to kind of make a decision. So
- 33:45Speaker 2: I don't know necessarily what a win or loss does.
- 33:48Speaker 2: So all right, appreciate the call, Ryan. I think the
- 33:52Speaker 2: phone lines are open right now. Eight eight eight eight
- 33:54Speaker 2: five five two two nine seven. This is usually right
- 33:57Speaker 2: when we start the show. We added an extra thirty
- 34:01Speaker 2: minutes if you're just joining us now, we we we
- 34:03Speaker 2: started at nine thirty. There's no talking cowboys this morning.
- 34:06Speaker 2: They will be back tomorrow. Nothing nothing changing for them.
- 34:09Speaker 2: They just had a little bit of scheduling conflicts. Today's
- 34:12Speaker 2: the day that the players go to the hospital visits
- 34:17Speaker 2: around town and around Dallas and Fort Worth. Three three
- 34:20Speaker 2: hospitals in Dallas, one in Fort Worth. They spread the
- 34:22Speaker 2: players around. We've got a couple of our our crew there.
- 34:26Speaker 2: We've got some we've got our some staff riders that
- 34:28Speaker 2: are there. We've got some videographers also there. It's a
- 34:34Speaker 2: it's a it's a special special day. I don't know
- 34:37Speaker 2: how to say. I don't I don't want to say
- 34:39Speaker 2: it's awesome because it's seeing kids in the hospitals. Not awesome,
- 34:43Speaker 2: especially if you have some like I do. But it's
- 34:47Speaker 2: it's something. It is just when you see a kid
- 34:52Speaker 2: light up. Because Eric Scott Junior shows up with his
- 34:57Speaker 2: jersey on, and that's nothing, no offense that Eric Scott Junior.
- 35:00Speaker 2: But he's just he's a guy that he's just a
- 35:02Speaker 2: young player, hasn't played yet. It doesn't matter. He's got
- 35:04Speaker 2: that jersey on, he's got that star. He's got a
- 35:06Speaker 2: Santa hat on, and a player like that walks in
- 35:09Speaker 2: there and just see how the kids and the parents
- 35:12Speaker 2: light up. It's pretty awesome. I've seen Tank Lawrence just
- 35:16Speaker 2: just send someone to the to the nearby store and say, hey,
- 35:20Speaker 2: they want this toy. Let's go get it for him,
- 35:22Speaker 2: and let's bring it to him, you know, here in
- 35:23Speaker 2: the next hour or so. I've seen that happen. It's
- 35:26Speaker 2: pretty it's pretty special. So it's a really great thing
- 35:28Speaker 2: the Cowboys have done for a long time. They go
- 35:31Speaker 2: all over to these children's hospitals and visit and it's
- 35:35Speaker 2: pretty cool. So you'll probably get a chance to see
- 35:37Speaker 2: that later today, some videos and some stories that come
- 35:41Speaker 2: out of that event. All right, let's go to Seth
- 35:43Speaker 2: in New York. It's our next caller, Seth.
- 35:46Speaker 16: Good morning, Nick, how are you?
- 35:48Speaker 2: Good morning? How are you doing good?
- 35:50Speaker 5: Thank you?
- 35:50Speaker 20: Happy victory Monday?
- 35:51Speaker 2: All right, okay, sounds good.
- 35:58Speaker 20: So my question so really I want to I want
- 36:01Speaker 20: I just want somebody to speak on this because I
- 36:04Speaker 20: found it to be absolutely phone aheaded analysis that came
- 36:07Speaker 20: out of one of the national media places over the weekend.
- 36:11Speaker 17: I know, I know what you say, exactly.
- 36:14Speaker 21: How is it that Dak Prescott can't be elite unless
- 36:17Speaker 21: he's throwing interceptions and plumbling the football and then you know,
- 36:22Speaker 21: having to play hero and come back and wain football.
- 36:25Speaker 21: And we all know that he put that team on
- 36:26Speaker 21: his back on Thursday.
- 36:29Speaker 2: I don't understand that you're you're talking about Leshaun McCoy
- 36:33Speaker 2: that that made that statement that he needs to see
- 36:36Speaker 2: Dak throw interceptions and come back from that, even though
- 36:40Speaker 2: when he did throw some interceptions in games, then that
- 36:43Speaker 2: whole crew roasted him and all that. Hey put David
- 36:46Speaker 2: help On back on the show. I'm sorry, David Hellman
- 36:48Speaker 2: needs to be on that show. It was a better
- 36:51Speaker 2: show when he was on it. And I'm not saying
- 36:54Speaker 2: that just because he's here. Maybe I am, but I
- 36:56Speaker 2: mean it's he he He actually brings a little bit
- 36:59Speaker 2: more rationale into things like that. So I don't know,
- 37:03Speaker 2: I thought that was you know, I say it all
- 37:05Speaker 2: the time, nobody's take is wrong as long as it's genuine,
- 37:09Speaker 2: as long as it's a real take, it's what you
- 37:11Speaker 2: really believe. You're not just saying that to kind of,
- 37:14Speaker 2: you know, just to get ratings and stuff like that.
- 37:16Speaker 2: I just don't understand how that that makes any sense
- 37:18Speaker 2: to me about I mean, he has done that, he's kind,
- 37:21Speaker 2: he's led the team back, he did it against Seattle.
- 37:23Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 37:24Speaker 2: I don't know what else he needed to do.
- 37:27Speaker 21: So yeah, it was just a blind take from a
- 37:31Speaker 21: guy who wears the Philly Green and I guess leeds
- 37:34Speaker 21: green and white.
- 37:35Speaker 2: So yeah, he's afraid that if he if he says
- 37:38Speaker 2: anything positive with the Cowboys, he's gonna lose his Philly
- 37:41Speaker 2: guard or whatever. I don't know. I don't, Hey, it is,
- 37:45Speaker 2: it is what it is. I don't I don't necessarily
- 37:47Speaker 2: that's not one that I ever Really, that's not a
- 37:50Speaker 2: take that I ever really throw a lot of validility
- 37:53Speaker 2: in because he's he is what he is, you know,
- 37:56Speaker 2: and that's and that's fine. I mean, he was a good,
- 37:57Speaker 2: good football player and all that. But it's clear that
- 38:00Speaker 2: he does not like the Cowboys, and you know, it's
- 38:05Speaker 2: I think it's a I think it's an unbiased take,
- 38:08Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Just like when Michael Ever
- 38:10Speaker 2: goes up there and says, you know, stuff about the Cowboys,
- 38:13Speaker 2: you look at it like, all right, Mike, you know,
- 38:14Speaker 2: of course, of course you're gonna say that, you know,
- 38:16Speaker 2: because you're a cowboy, and it's the same with the
- 38:18Speaker 2: people that are the other way around. So it is,
- 38:20Speaker 2: it is what it is. I didn't understand the take.
- 38:22Speaker 2: Maybe there was more to it. I think Dak has
- 38:25Speaker 2: shown that he could bring the team back, But you know,
- 38:29Speaker 2: it's not it's not a recipe that you want your
- 38:31Speaker 2: quarterback to do, you know. I mean, you know, Jalen
- 38:34Speaker 2: Hurts did it a few times. You know, get some
- 38:37Speaker 2: some bads and mediocre teams. He brought their team back.
- 38:40Speaker 2: They did it. They tried that thing yesterday against the
- 38:42Speaker 2: forty nine ers and that didn't work and it went
- 38:43Speaker 2: the other way. So that's not It's not something that
- 38:46Speaker 2: you want to go into the game saying, I just
- 38:48Speaker 2: hope my team can can rally and bring them back.
- 38:50Speaker 2: So all right, let's go to Reggie in Germany. Reggie
- 38:56Speaker 2: are you there? Hello?
- 39:01Speaker 6: Hey Nick? How you doing is Reggie?
- 39:03Speaker 2: Hey? Reggie? How's it going over there?
- 39:05Speaker 6: It's been a minute. It's been good man, everything's good.
- 39:07Speaker 6: Hope you guys had nice holidays as well. Listen, I
- 39:10Speaker 6: know another guys are trying to get through to you.
- 39:12Speaker 6: So I don't want to take up a lot of
- 39:13Speaker 6: your time.
- 39:14Speaker 2: You're in you're in Germany. You can do you got a.
- 39:16Speaker 6: Little bit, thanks man, I appreciate it. Listen, real quick question.
- 39:21Speaker 6: Have you checked out any of the keys to the
- 39:24Speaker 6: game as far as what San Francisco was doing to
- 39:26Speaker 6: the to the Philly defense. I was observing the game
- 39:30Speaker 6: and I noticed that they were running a lot of
- 39:34Speaker 6: stunts to the to the left side of the offense.
- 39:38Speaker 6: And that's our strength, that's that's Tyler and Tyrant. You
- 39:43Speaker 6: think that's something that they're paying attention to that we
- 39:46Speaker 6: might work some of that. And I haven't seen a
- 39:47Speaker 6: lot of left hand running as far as our offense
- 39:52Speaker 6: is concerned, and not running off tacklele between the tackling guard.
- 39:56Speaker 6: I think that's something that would be playing to the
- 39:57Speaker 6: strength of TP and might help him out a little bit.
- 40:02Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, he's you know that that's one of
- 40:05Speaker 2: those things too, Like it's hard to do what the
- 40:07Speaker 2: forty nine ers do, you know? I mean, yeah, they're
- 40:10Speaker 2: running to their left side. I don't think it's because
- 40:12Speaker 2: they found something on the Eagles right side of their
- 40:14Speaker 2: defensive end. I think it's because they've got an all
- 40:16Speaker 2: Pro tackle over there. Trent Williams. True, I'm not saying
- 40:23Speaker 2: we don't Trent Williams, I think is a little bit
- 40:25Speaker 2: different and he plays in that style. But more than
- 40:28Speaker 2: that is it's who's the debo? I mean, like, do
- 40:32Speaker 2: you have a Debode, you have a McCaffrey. I mean,
- 40:34Speaker 2: the forty nine ers are really good at what they
- 40:37Speaker 2: do because they have weapons that they can line up everywhere.
- 40:41Speaker 2: They can line up a wide receiver at running back
- 40:44Speaker 2: and run them the ball. They can line up the
- 40:45Speaker 2: running back McCaffrey at receiver and throw him the ball.
- 40:48Speaker 2: So it's really it's really a tough I mean tough
- 40:51Speaker 2: offense to try to copy, I mean, because you just
- 40:56Speaker 2: don't have those pieces in place. But they ran Philly
- 41:00Speaker 2: all over the place, and they did a really good
- 41:02Speaker 2: job in party. I mean, he just makes really really
- 41:04Speaker 2: good decisions. So they they took it to the forty
- 41:07Speaker 2: nine ers. I mean it was one of those games,
- 41:09Speaker 2: got your you know, real chippy there with the with
- 41:11Speaker 2: the fighting and security guard and all that kind of mess.
- 41:14Speaker 2: Uh yeah, I mean I don't know what was going
- 41:17Speaker 2: on there, but you know, you know, it happens, it happened.
- 41:23Speaker 6: It's going on, It was going on right.
- 41:26Speaker 2: And Philly. Philly took that. They needed a spark, they
- 41:29Speaker 2: took it and they went and scored a touchdown. And
- 41:31Speaker 2: that's when you're like, all this game might have just changed.
- 41:34Speaker 2: I mean, the forty nine ers lost one of their
- 41:36Speaker 2: best linebackers in green Law, and the Eagles lost their
- 41:40Speaker 2: security guard. Like like, okay, that's fair. And then what
- 41:43Speaker 2: the forty nine ers did. They took it right down
- 41:45Speaker 2: there and scored and said, now you know we we
- 41:47Speaker 2: could play with an edge as well, and so you know,
- 41:50Speaker 2: that was that was it.
- 41:52Speaker 6: Yeah, that was that was a good trade for the
- 41:54Speaker 6: for the Eagles. I mean, you know, they lost the
- 41:57Speaker 6: security person.
- 41:58Speaker 2: Well maybe maybe it wasn't because after that they couldn't
- 42:00Speaker 2: stop anyone. I don't know, I don't know. I never
- 42:03Speaker 2: heard of that guy. I mean I didn't, Yeah, I mean,
- 42:06Speaker 2: what is it with security guys? I mean seriously, I mean,
- 42:08Speaker 2: I know the cowboys, the cowboys got to go. But
- 42:11Speaker 2: you know, and I said this before, you know, you're
- 42:13Speaker 2: supposed to be breaking up the fight, and I went
- 42:15Speaker 2: and just looked at it again. He was doing that.
- 42:17Speaker 2: He was trying to do that. Now he was throwing
- 42:19Speaker 2: some f bombs in there. You know, he was a
- 42:21Speaker 2: big tough guy, but I mean he was trying to
- 42:23Speaker 2: kind of break that up. And and to be fair,
- 42:25Speaker 2: the Cowboys security director of security, he's down there on
- 42:28Speaker 2: the field too, he breaks up fights like that, like
- 42:30Speaker 2: that's that's kind of what happens. But there was just
- 42:33Speaker 2: an odd, odd thing that happened. And I'm really surprised
- 42:38Speaker 2: that they that they got him out of the game
- 42:40Speaker 2: for that.
- 42:42Speaker 6: Yeah, I wasn't sure about that, Carl Eive I mean,
- 42:44Speaker 6: how did they come back to it? And they circled
- 42:46Speaker 6: back to it. They didn't even call it initially they
- 42:48Speaker 6: did and then they came back to it.
- 42:50Speaker 10: Thing.
- 42:51Speaker 2: The only thing I could think of, The only thing
- 42:53Speaker 2: I could think of is because he already had the
- 42:54Speaker 2: penalty for the for the throwing him down the ground,
- 42:57Speaker 2: and then if he's a swipe like that, if that's
- 42:59Speaker 2: another penalty, I guess that's a fifteen yard I guess
- 43:03Speaker 2: you get two, you're out. I don't know, I'm getting
- 43:05Speaker 2: my college football rules mixed up there.
- 43:09Speaker 6: But anyway, he's a security guy's not even a player,
- 43:12Speaker 6: so how do you call that?
- 43:13Speaker 2: But but I'm glad that they got him out of
- 43:16Speaker 2: the game. I mean, whatever his role is. I mean,
- 43:18Speaker 2: you're you're on the sideline and you can't you can't.
- 43:20Speaker 2: I mean you need to be out of the game
- 43:22Speaker 2: as well. So who knows? Who knows what that effect?
- 43:25Speaker 2: It was just kind of a weird, weird game. You know,
- 43:27Speaker 2: who knows? Does he have to sit out the first
- 43:29Speaker 2: half of the Cowboys game? Again? Sorry, that's another Cowboys thing,
- 43:32Speaker 2: another college.
- 43:33Speaker 6: Football What happens after?
- 43:35Speaker 2: Who knows? Who knows. I'm sure that people in Philly
- 43:38Speaker 2: would pay it so for him. They love that guy.
- 43:42Speaker 2: You gotta yeah, I've never heard of him. All right,
- 43:44Speaker 2: anything else, reg No, that's it.
- 43:46Speaker 6: I just wanted to hear your pin on.
- 43:48Speaker 2: It, all right, appreciate that. Thank you for the call.
- 43:51Speaker 2: Got another call from outside the US, Canada and now Germany.
- 43:55Speaker 2: That's awesome. Uh, we're gonna go. We'll go one more
- 43:58Speaker 2: call and we're gonna take a break.
- 43:59Speaker 13: Here.
- 43:59Speaker 2: We got Russ in New York.
- 44:02Speaker 11: Hey, Nick, how's it going? First time caller?
- 44:04Speaker 2: Oh, hey, Russ, there you go, there you go, Here
- 44:09Speaker 2: we go.
- 44:10Speaker 11: I just heard the last caller about the one before that,
- 44:12Speaker 11: about the narrative on the national TV would shaded everything.
- 44:16Speaker 11: I just think it's humorous.
- 44:18Speaker 13: Yeah.
- 44:18Speaker 11: I mean last year, if you watched the Cowboys Eagles
- 44:21Speaker 11: game in December, that there was a pick six like
- 44:24Speaker 11: on like the first play of the game, almost right,
- 44:26Speaker 11: and then he comes back and beats them to scores
- 44:28Speaker 11: thirty something points on him. So I mean, yeah, his
- 44:31Speaker 11: ability to come back from starting a game wrong. I mean,
- 44:34Speaker 11: he's done it plenty of times in his career.
- 44:36Speaker 2: True.
- 44:36Speaker 11: And I remember remember when we used to play Carson Wentz.
- 44:39Speaker 11: We had some battles and those games are we started
- 44:42Speaker 11: off pretty rough.
- 44:43Speaker 2: So yeah, that's good. Point is crazy? Ten nothing that
- 44:48Speaker 2: Eagle game last year against Gardner, Make sure you're exactly right.
- 44:50Speaker 2: It was ten nothing and that pick and yeah, they
- 44:53Speaker 2: came back and that was a great game. Of course,
- 44:55Speaker 2: of course that game pie doesn't count because it didn't
- 44:57Speaker 2: have Jalen Hurts in it. You know, I mean, like
- 44:59Speaker 2: there's always he's gonna be that that kind of narrative.
- 45:02Speaker 11: But it's okay, Yeah, like Dak plays against Jalen Hurts
- 45:06Speaker 11: on defense, right, not like.
- 45:08Speaker 5: That's the Eagle's defense.
- 45:09Speaker 11: Right, go ahead, So just real quick, what do you
- 45:14Speaker 11: think we're gonna do this week? If we have some
- 45:16Speaker 11: trouble again on the right tackle side with steel or
- 45:19Speaker 11: we're going to try to help out a little bit
- 45:21Speaker 11: more than we did last time.
- 45:23Speaker 2: Yeah, I would imagine. I would imagine that.
- 45:26Speaker 5: You know.
- 45:26Speaker 2: That's why, that's why having the tight ends out here,
- 45:28Speaker 2: you know, are really really helpful. That's why you want
- 45:32Speaker 2: them to make plays. You want Schoonmaker to make some plays,
- 45:36Speaker 2: you want Ferguson to make plays because having them on
- 45:39Speaker 2: the field can help in so many different areas. You
- 45:41Speaker 2: can help keep them inside and block those guys when
- 45:45Speaker 2: you need them. If you feel like you've got it covered,
- 45:47Speaker 2: they can leak out and make plays as well, especially
- 45:49Speaker 2: Ferguson who's making some catches and getting yards up the field.
- 45:52Speaker 2: So having good tight end play is helpful because those
- 45:58Speaker 2: are the guys that will help chip like you're talking
- 46:00Speaker 2: about on certain plays and then certain plays you can
- 46:02Speaker 2: chip like we saw Ferguson had one in the game
- 46:05Speaker 2: the other day, and if you guys saw it where
- 46:06Speaker 2: he was supposed to just help Tyron with a chip
- 46:09Speaker 2: on the left side and then leak out, but he
- 46:12Speaker 2: knocked him on his ass and Tyron's sitting there like
- 46:15Speaker 2: what do I do now? You know, I mean he
- 46:17Speaker 2: kind of blocked over here. So it just it was
- 46:19Speaker 2: one of those Ferguson had a lot of great plays,
- 46:21Speaker 2: but but that one was a big one. But to
- 46:23Speaker 2: your to your point, tight ends will help with the
- 46:25Speaker 2: chips and having them on the fields to be versatile
- 46:28Speaker 2: is really really important.
- 46:31Speaker 11: Awesome, thanks all right, so much. Appreciate all the work
- 46:33Speaker 11: in all the years.

- 49:04Speaker 2: longer show today. If you just joining us, and this
- 49:07Speaker 2: is the second time I've said it, but if you
- 49:08Speaker 2: just joined us, just just talking. Cowboys did not have
- 49:11Speaker 2: a show this morning. They will pick back up tomorrow,
- 49:14Speaker 2: and this is that's really the only change of the
- 49:17Speaker 2: schedule today. We just went a little bit longer. Wanted
- 49:19Speaker 2: to give you guys a chance to get some more
- 49:21Speaker 2: calls in. Maybe we can set our personal record, which
- 49:25Speaker 2: I believe sixteen. So we're sitting at eleven right now,
- 49:29Speaker 2: so hopefully we can get there. We've got a few
- 49:31Speaker 2: more minutes here. We're going to go to the normal
- 49:34Speaker 2: time about ten fifty, and then right for that it'll
- 49:37Speaker 2: be just like a regular Monday Cowboys break and then
- 49:40Speaker 2: all the other shows after that. All right, let's go
- 49:42Speaker 2: to Steve in New York. It's our next caller. Hey, Steve,
- 49:47Speaker 2: how are you doing all right?
- 49:49Speaker 8: I have to call because I heard a call or
- 49:53Speaker 8: two ago, the boneheaded observation from national media. I'm shocked,
- 49:57Speaker 8: absolutely so far.
- 49:58Speaker 2: Yeah, I've been.
- 50:01Speaker 8: A fan forty five plus years. I will watch replays
- 50:05Speaker 8: of the eighty one championship games on a roll, Okay,
- 50:09Speaker 8: before I ever watch any of those shows. I mean,
- 50:13Speaker 8: come on, anos.
- 50:15Speaker 2: Hey, let me ask you this. Of all the replays,
- 50:19Speaker 2: does Dwight Clark ever drop it or does he just
- 50:21Speaker 2: catch it every time.
- 50:23Speaker 8: Well, I'm hoping one sales into the crowd like it
- 50:25Speaker 8: was supposed to, right.
- 50:26Speaker 2: Yeah, just one time to throw it in there.
- 50:28Speaker 5: I know.
- 50:29Speaker 8: Well, like with the Metcalf touchdown the other night. Maybe
- 50:32Speaker 8: it's because I'm watching at home.
- 50:33Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 50:34Speaker 8: I thought that was going in the third row. Yeah yeah,
- 50:36Speaker 8: I mean, oh.
- 50:37Speaker 2: God, oh yeah, the one the one that really high Yeah,
- 50:40Speaker 2: same way, right, Yeah, I thought that was I thought
- 50:43Speaker 2: I thought Chris Bean was going to catch that. I
- 50:44Speaker 2: thought he was back there he was going to make
- 50:46Speaker 2: that catch. And he did not, but he was right there.
- 50:48Speaker 2: So what else you got?
- 50:52Speaker 8: Yeah, just real quick, because you know, I'm a I'm
- 50:54Speaker 8: a big there's two guys Cowboy players Hall of Fame
- 50:58Speaker 8: that obviously, Woodson's one of them. So you know that
- 51:00Speaker 8: bothers me every year and Neverson Walls is the other one.
- 51:03Speaker 8: I'm speaking of the catch, but you know it was
- 51:06Speaker 8: I was just thinking that it was because I was
- 51:09Speaker 8: you know, it's it's Monday, I have a little time
- 51:11Speaker 8: to play with. You know, it was twenty nine years
- 51:14Speaker 8: ago today that game. Because I know you have mentioned
- 51:17Speaker 8: it on your show. When Woody intercepted that pass, in Philly.
- 51:20Speaker 8: Remember they were wearing their double stars.
- 51:22Speaker 2: That day, the blue double stirs.
- 51:24Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, and I think it was ninety something yards
- 51:28Speaker 8: maybe sure, Yeah, that was toy. I can imagine that
- 51:31Speaker 8: was twenty nine years ago. Man, that's that's crazy. And
- 51:35Speaker 8: I just wish and I'll say it. I know it's
- 51:37Speaker 8: been said a hundred times, Darren Woodson Hall of Fame.
- 51:39Speaker 13: Enough.
- 51:40Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, let's enough is enough? Thanks for the
- 51:44Speaker 2: calls deve. I mean, like, and you know, I looked
- 51:46Speaker 2: at the class recently. Darren Woodson got put in the
- 51:49Speaker 2: semifinalists around of twenty five. He's been there before. He
- 51:54Speaker 2: needs to make it to the finalist of fifteen. If
- 51:57Speaker 2: you look at the class, I mean, I don't don't
- 52:00Speaker 2: know who who would be. I mean you say that,
- 52:03Speaker 2: who would be ahead of him? I mean, it just
- 52:04Speaker 2: it's got to go. It's got to be his turn,
- 52:07Speaker 2: and I don't know who all has has waited a
- 52:10Speaker 2: long long time. I think I think Woodson is there though,
- 52:12Speaker 2: I mean, I don't see why he wouldn't make it
- 52:15Speaker 2: this year. But there's a lot of politics involved there.
- 52:18Speaker 2: But I do know this that the people that I've
- 52:22Speaker 2: talked to that are on the committee. They think he's
- 52:25Speaker 2: going to get in. They know how this works, they
- 52:27Speaker 2: know how the process is and how you kind of
- 52:29Speaker 2: have to wait your turn in you wait a long time.
- 52:31Speaker 2: It's not like, you know, he hasn't waited a long time.
- 52:34Speaker 2: They think he's going to get in sooner than later.
- 52:37Speaker 2: And they've tried, they've really tried to do some things.
- 52:41Speaker 2: I mean, I had somebody ask me to call Bill
- 52:43Speaker 2: Parcells and ask him about Darren Woodson. And I got
- 52:47Speaker 2: to talk to him about it, and he said he's
- 52:49Speaker 2: one of the top five players he's ever coached. And
- 52:51Speaker 2: he coached him for one year, one year, and he said,
- 52:54Speaker 2: he's one of the top five players I've ever coached,
- 52:57Speaker 2: you know, and I don't know who the other three are.
- 53:00Speaker 2: Ask him. I mean, I can imagine Lawrence Taylor would
- 53:02Speaker 2: be one. I don't know some of the others. But
- 53:05Speaker 2: he said Darren Woodson. He goes, I wish if I
- 53:07Speaker 2: would have had Darren Woodson longer than this, he'd already have,
- 53:10Speaker 2: you know, a Hall of Fame jacket. And that's pretty
- 53:13Speaker 2: egotistical to say, But who's who disagrees for sure? All right,
- 53:18Speaker 2: all right, let's go back to the line here I've
- 53:22Speaker 2: got to repeat here or this is Dylan is called back.
- 53:25Speaker 17: Dylan, Hey dude, thanks for having me back. I wasn't
- 53:29Speaker 17: sure if I was able to look at that gun
- 53:30Speaker 17: or not.
- 53:30Speaker 2: But you know, I feel like if you get through,
- 53:33Speaker 2: you get through. You know, I mean, if you know,
- 53:35Speaker 2: if you maybe had something you forgot to say or whatever.
- 53:39Speaker 2: So if you get through the second time, We've never
- 53:40Speaker 2: had a third caller, but let's not try it today.
- 53:42Speaker 2: Let's try try it.
- 53:43Speaker 17: Yeah, I figured you guys had a little longer for mat.
- 53:45Speaker 2: That's okay, that's all right. I'm still counting it as
- 53:48Speaker 2: another call because you got through.
- 53:49Speaker 5: What's up?
- 53:50Speaker 17: I'll go quick so we can get the sixteen callers
- 53:52Speaker 17: in here record.
- 53:53Speaker 2: I appreciate that.
- 53:54Speaker 25: Yeah.
- 53:54Speaker 17: Man, the Eagles, dude, they don't scare me like at all.
- 53:57Speaker 17: You look at the last like three four weeks that
- 54:00Speaker 17: they've been knocking on the doorstep of these losses. And
- 54:03Speaker 17: I called it on Twitter before the game, I'm like,
- 54:05Speaker 17: you know, this is the week the horseshoe falls out
- 54:08Speaker 17: of the Eagles.
- 54:09Speaker 13: Ass.
- 54:09Speaker 17: I'm like, this is the foreign nine Ers are a
- 54:10Speaker 17: vastly superior team. They don't play around either, they don't
- 54:13Speaker 17: let teams hang around when they're playing their a game.
- 54:16Speaker 17: They're they're well coached, they're disciplined, and except for green
- 54:19Speaker 17: Law apparently, and I mean, they're just a monster team
- 54:23Speaker 17: with I don't mind, I don't know what the weaknesses.
- 54:24Speaker 17: They don't have any weaknesses, it seems like and they
- 54:26Speaker 17: scared the absolute hell on me. But the Eagles, they
- 54:29Speaker 17: can be picked on. Their secondary is trash Hers has
- 54:32Speaker 17: played not great this year. I mean, he's been clutch, right,
- 54:37Speaker 17: but his stats are mediocre. He doesn't pass the ball
- 54:40Speaker 17: well this year. It's like middle of the pack. I'm
- 54:42Speaker 17: not even sure I was an MVP conversation outside of
- 54:44Speaker 17: team record when you compare them with the other guys
- 54:46Speaker 17: like Party and Dak and it's just I think the
- 54:49Speaker 17: Eagles are going to lose a few more games for
- 54:51Speaker 17: at the end of the year, I think we're still
- 54:52Speaker 17: going to get screwed. I think the Niners probably went
- 54:54Speaker 17: out so we don't get the one seed. But I
- 54:56Speaker 17: think there's a good chance now that we could take
- 54:58Speaker 17: the division.
- 54:59Speaker 2: Well see, I mean, yeah, you're right, And I think
- 55:02Speaker 2: Hurts is pretty good. I mean I do. I would
- 55:04Speaker 2: I would have put him up there in the MVP category,
- 55:07Speaker 2: not that I vote, and we still got a lot
- 55:09Speaker 2: a lot to you know, to go here. I think
- 55:12Speaker 2: he's played really well. The thing that I think San
- 55:14Speaker 2: Francisco did really well in the game is on third down.
- 55:18Speaker 2: I mean they got it out of fourth and one
- 55:20Speaker 2: and two. They that you didn't see them have the
- 55:23Speaker 2: ability to do the toush push that much. And so
- 55:26Speaker 2: that's the key is that I want to I think
- 55:28Speaker 2: Greg Olsen said it on the air, which is a
- 55:30Speaker 2: great point, is that they have a fourth play. They
- 55:32Speaker 2: have an I mean, they have an extra snap every
- 55:34Speaker 2: time in their back pocket that other teams really don't
- 55:37Speaker 2: because of because of their ability to get that fourth
- 55:40Speaker 2: and one or fourth and two. And the forty nine
- 55:42Speaker 2: ers really they did a nice job of kind of
- 55:44Speaker 2: not getting there. The weakness I would say the forty
- 55:47Speaker 2: nine ers have, and it's not really a big one,
- 55:49Speaker 2: it's just that the way they like to play, if
- 55:52Speaker 2: you can get on them early and then force them
- 55:54Speaker 2: to have to throw their way back into the game,
- 55:57Speaker 2: I think that that that's that's kind of a problem
- 55:59Speaker 2: for them because if they can run Debo and they
- 56:02Speaker 2: can run McCaffrey and do all these you know, cool things.
- 56:06Speaker 2: The way that they run east to west and all that,
- 56:08Speaker 2: that that makes it tough. But if they have to
- 56:10Speaker 2: sit back and throw and say, all right, we got
- 56:12Speaker 2: to hurry and get back in this game, that's probably
- 56:14Speaker 2: where they're not at their best. Of course, with the
- 56:16Speaker 2: Eagles they got up, and of course the Cowboys they
- 56:18Speaker 2: were up as well. So that's that's the key is
- 56:21Speaker 2: I think you got to get them in a situation
- 56:23Speaker 2: where you really have to force party to make make
- 56:26Speaker 2: these throws. All right, let's go to Arthur in Spring Texas.
- 56:30Speaker 5: Arthur, good morning, Nick. How you doing?
- 56:32Speaker 2: Good morning? How you doing?
- 56:34Speaker 5: I'm doing well. You know, there's another langage that goes
- 56:40Speaker 5: when somebody you do tells you or shows you who
- 56:44Speaker 5: they really are. Believe. I was glad to say green
- 56:49Speaker 5: Law get thrown at the game. Green Law was the
- 56:51Speaker 5: one responsible for backing Palmer's leg Yeah, when we say
- 56:55Speaker 5: them last year, Greenlaw tried to do that same nonsense
- 57:00Speaker 5: when we played them this year when he tried to
- 57:04Speaker 5: body slam. As a matter of think, I'm thinking it
- 57:07Speaker 5: was probably that he didn't to them, So I was
- 57:10Speaker 5: I was very happy to see him get thrown out
- 57:13Speaker 5: the game. I don't have a problem with a player
- 57:17Speaker 5: being tough. I have a problem with a player being
- 57:20Speaker 5: dirty because you're you're trying to interrupt this man's lively
- 57:26Speaker 5: when you when you make plays or uh make those
- 57:29Speaker 5: kind of tackles on people. I don't have any respect
- 57:32Speaker 5: for a player that tries to take take people out
- 57:35Speaker 5: like that. I noticed, like Fletcher Cox, Fletcher Cox is
- 57:39Speaker 5: just a good you can tell he's a he's a
- 57:43Speaker 5: good hearted person with that doesn't have any ill intention
- 57:47Speaker 5: when he tackles tackles you. It's just because he's just
- 57:50Speaker 5: manhandle whoever it was to get to you. So I
- 57:54Speaker 5: have great respect for people like that. I have great
- 57:57Speaker 5: respect for people like d Law that you know, aggressive
- 58:01Speaker 5: player and he just knows how to bring, you know,
- 58:04Speaker 5: step the level of the game up to get to
- 58:06Speaker 5: people beyond beyond that. You know, those those haters are
- 58:14Speaker 5: going to continue to hate and say that, oh, well,
- 58:16Speaker 5: the Cowboys managed to pull off one win against uh
- 58:21Speaker 5: against the winning team. But you know, I'm each each game,
- 58:25Speaker 5: take it each one game at a time, and the
- 58:29Speaker 5: cream always rises to the town. Yeah, that's right, we'll
- 58:33Speaker 5: get We'll get a chance to see a playoffs.
- 58:36Speaker 2: All right, Well, I appreciate that, thanks for the call,
- 58:40Speaker 2: And you're right, you know, you start you see a
- 58:41Speaker 2: pattern with certain players. You guys know, I'm an Arkansas guy,
- 58:46Speaker 2: so I mean Drake, Drake Greenlaw was a player at Arkansas.
- 58:49Speaker 2: He was a good player, and uh, you drafted maybe
- 58:52Speaker 2: the seventh round and he's been he's had a really
- 58:54Speaker 2: good career, uh for the forty nine ers. But you know,
- 58:57Speaker 2: you do see a pattern with players like that, with
- 59:00Speaker 2: injuries and just and just playing with an edge, playing
- 59:04Speaker 2: that way, playing kind of reckless and whatever happens happens,
- 59:08Speaker 2: and uh, you know, you it's it's unfortunate, especially when
- 59:11Speaker 2: you get into two injuries that that can be you know,
- 59:14Speaker 2: season ending, career ending even at that. But but that's
- 59:18Speaker 2: you know, there's always that tough that fine line for
- 59:22Speaker 2: those defensive players like where can you be the most
- 59:25Speaker 2: aggressive you can be and kind of have an edge
- 59:28Speaker 2: for yourself and for your whole team and play with
- 59:32Speaker 2: that intensity without maybe going over the line. And that's
- 59:37Speaker 2: that's always tough, you know, because where is the line?
- 59:40Speaker 2: You can't even see it. And so I'll just leave
- 59:45Speaker 2: it at that because I haven't seen a ton of
- 59:47Speaker 2: their games and watch him. But yeah, when you see
- 59:49Speaker 2: kind of the same player that do that. But that's
- 59:52Speaker 2: also you know, that's a seventh round pick that that's
- 59:55Speaker 2: probably supposed to be in the league for a year
- 59:57Speaker 2: if that, and and he's turned into a you know,
- 1:00:00Speaker 2: really good player, and and how that's how you do
- 1:00:02Speaker 2: that is you sort of play with an edge. But yeah,
- 1:00:04Speaker 2: it could definitely be over aggressive at times, and uh,
- 1:00:07Speaker 2: you know that could have hurt his team. But but
- 1:00:09Speaker 2: but San Francisco, you know, responded the right way and
- 1:00:12Speaker 2: and and you know, Philly really couldn't stop him. All right,
- 1:00:15Speaker 2: let's go to Mike in West Virginia.
- 1:00:18Speaker 25: Mike Nick, how are you good?
- 1:00:20Speaker 2: How are you doing?
- 1:00:21Speaker 25: Mike doing good? Sir, appreciate you all your work and
- 1:00:25Speaker 25: longtime listener, All.
- 1:00:26Speaker 2: Right, appreciate that. What do you got for us?
- 1:00:29Speaker 10: Well?
- 1:00:29Speaker 25: I got kind of a funny question I've been thinking about. Okay, Mike,
- 1:00:34Speaker 25: Michael Parsons UH has come up for a contract and
- 1:00:39Speaker 25: he's gonna want defensive end money.
- 1:00:43Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
- 1:00:44Speaker 25: He wears number eleven if he if he is on
- 1:00:47Speaker 25: the defensive line, what's the NFL's rules regarding him still
- 1:00:51Speaker 25: keeping that eleven if he is if he's designated as
- 1:00:55Speaker 25: a defensive line then I wondered about that. And uh
- 1:01:00Speaker 25: just also wanted to say really happy about Aubrey kicking
- 1:01:04Speaker 25: the ball, Tope Ferguson can tie up Old Billy Joe Prie,
- 1:01:09Speaker 25: and Hollywood Henderson was ahead of his time Duncan over
- 1:01:13Speaker 25: the goal post on his pick sixes. Just like to
- 1:01:17Speaker 25: hear your thoughts on any of those. Okay, thanks again, man,
- 1:01:21Speaker 25: I don't hang out and listen, you.
- 1:01:23Speaker 2: Know, Hollywood, there we go. I'm not sure his first
- 1:01:27Speaker 2: time caller or not, but but Chris I love it.
- 1:01:29Speaker 2: He just threw it in there for the first time. Okay. Yeah,
- 1:01:32Speaker 2: I hadn't remember that one as well, but I wasn't
- 1:01:34Speaker 2: going to do it ask again and be like, you know,
- 1:01:36Speaker 2: it's like, hey are you yeah? You know that's kind
- 1:01:39Speaker 2: of like when someone says, hey, hey, I'm Nick, nice
- 1:01:41Speaker 2: to meet you, Like, oh, I've met you six times.
- 1:01:43Speaker 2: You're like, okay, sorry, Hollywood Henderson. I've mentioned him a
- 1:01:48Speaker 2: little bit lately with Sam Williams. As far as not
- 1:01:51Speaker 2: off the field, I'm talking about just linebacker that can
- 1:01:54Speaker 2: play like ahead of his time that way. I mean
- 1:01:57Speaker 2: a gunner, he plays it, he's on the gunner. I mean,
- 1:01:59Speaker 2: it's unbelievab. He could probably return a kick if if
- 1:02:02Speaker 2: you wanted him to. So, Yeah, Hollywood, Henderson was that
- 1:02:06Speaker 2: type of guy, uh, for sure. And Micah Parsons, the
- 1:02:11Speaker 2: defensive ends can wear defensivends can wear a single digits.
- 1:02:15Speaker 2: I think Randy Gregory wears a five for the for
- 1:02:18Speaker 2: the for the Niners. And you definitely can I mean
- 1:02:22Speaker 2: you you can switch around, so linebacker, defensive end, corner,
- 1:02:26Speaker 2: any defensive player I think can wear uh numbers that
- 1:02:29Speaker 2: are that are in single digits. And who knows. Michael Parsons,
- 1:02:34Speaker 2: we'll see if he wears eleven for the rest for
- 1:02:36Speaker 2: his whole career. I don't know. There's a lot of
- 1:02:38Speaker 2: eleven jerseys out there. He's one of the he's one
- 1:02:40Speaker 2: of the fan favorites for sure. Maybe there have been
- 1:02:43Speaker 2: some talk maybe he might want to change numbers if
- 1:02:46Speaker 2: if he ever, if he can afford it. But you're right,
- 1:02:48Speaker 2: he's going to definitely get a lot of money, uh
- 1:02:51Speaker 2: with his contract coming up whenever that is, the Cowboys
- 1:02:53Speaker 2: can negotiate starting next year after his third year. Of course,
- 1:02:57Speaker 2: they got to get C D. Paid as well. But
- 1:03:00Speaker 2: but yeah, they can, they can start to do that,
- 1:03:02Speaker 2: and he's gonna want the defensive end money because that's
- 1:03:04Speaker 2: that's what makes him what he is. He's a pass
- 1:03:07Speaker 2: rusher and he's played some linebacker, but but you know
- 1:03:10Speaker 2: where he's been, where he's been at his best is
- 1:03:12Speaker 2: when he's he's getting after the quarterback and he's got
- 1:03:15Speaker 2: more pressures than anybody in the league. So that's certainly
- 1:03:17Speaker 2: a pass rusher. All right, all right, let's go to
- 1:03:20Speaker 2: Michaels in Bowling Green, Kentucky.
- 1:03:22Speaker 5: Michael, there we go.
- 1:03:25Speaker 2: That's up man.
- 1:03:26Speaker 13: All right.
- 1:03:27Speaker 18: So I quit Twitter years ago and I recently rejoined
- 1:03:33Speaker 18: it just to follow follow the Cowboys stuff and everything.
- 1:03:37Speaker 18: And I think I've decided we could win out, which
- 1:03:41Speaker 18: I think we will. Uh, the Eagles could lose the
- 1:03:45Speaker 18: Seattle we could be the number one seed, get to
- 1:03:49Speaker 18: the Super Bowl and blow out the AFC team, and
- 1:03:53Speaker 18: people would still talk trash about dak president.
- 1:03:57Speaker 2: No no, no, no, no. Now, if he wins the
- 1:03:59Speaker 2: Super Bowl, there'll still be well but okay, the refs
- 1:04:05Speaker 2: cheated us or something. They'll be Yeah, but you win
- 1:04:08Speaker 2: a Super Bowl for the Cowboys, I can't. I would
- 1:04:11Speaker 2: think that they would say he's the best player in football.
- 1:04:14Speaker 2: I always thought that about Romo. If Romo could ever
- 1:04:16Speaker 2: get one, he would be considered the best quarterback in
- 1:04:19Speaker 2: the NFL, just like Aaron Rodgers was at sometimes, just
- 1:04:22Speaker 2: like Drew Brees probably was at one time. I think,
- 1:04:25Speaker 2: if you win a Super Bowl for the Cowboys, you're
- 1:04:28Speaker 2: going to be put on a very very high pedestal.
- 1:04:31Speaker 2: So I don't think there's gonna be a lot of
- 1:04:32Speaker 2: people talking dress if that happens. Who knows. I don't.
- 1:04:35Speaker 2: I've never experienced that, so I wouldn't know.
- 1:04:38Speaker 18: I remember in ninety two and all. Yeah, I mean
- 1:04:41Speaker 18: all of a sudden, everybody was the Cowboys faying for
- 1:04:43Speaker 18: for a while. But one thing, if we beat the Eagles,
- 1:04:49Speaker 18: which I'm hoping we do. Look, they were talking about
- 1:04:52Speaker 18: the Eagles starting nine and one so many years in
- 1:04:55Speaker 18: a row, and we'll already be all called up with them.
- 1:04:58Speaker 2: Yeah, that would be huge. This game is as big
- 1:05:01Speaker 2: as it gets right now, because if you don't win,
- 1:05:03Speaker 2: I mean pretty much wraps up the division. I think
- 1:05:06Speaker 2: for the Eagles. I mean it would have to be
- 1:05:08Speaker 2: it would It would take losses. I mean, who's going
- 1:05:10Speaker 2: to lose to the Cardinals, right, I mean, sorry.
- 1:05:13Speaker 18: Maybe they lose to the Giants twice.
- 1:05:15Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, if that happens, you know, then then I hope,
- 1:05:18Speaker 2: I hope everybody over there is okay, you know, because
- 1:05:21Speaker 2: they've certainly had a lot of injuries at that point.
- 1:05:23Speaker 2: If that happens, those, if those are the Cardinals of
- 1:05:26Speaker 2: the Giants, that's what makes this game so big. And
- 1:05:28Speaker 2: then then after that they got to play you know,
- 1:05:30Speaker 2: Seattle on Monday night, so this is this is a
- 1:05:34Speaker 2: big stretch for them, you know.
- 1:05:36Speaker 18: Yeah. Well, I'm keeping my eye on the shack news.
- 1:05:39Speaker 18: That's what I'm waiting. All right, all right, he appreciate it.
- 1:05:42Speaker 2: Thanks, thanks for the call. Michael Bowling, Green, Kentucky. All right,
- 1:05:46Speaker 2: let's move to James. He's in New Jersey. James. I'm good.
- 1:05:51Speaker 2: How are you, James?
- 1:05:55Speaker 13: But I said I'm from Originally I've been a Fantasy
- 1:05:59Speaker 13: sixty five for the Cowboys. Yeah, one point about the
- 1:06:05Speaker 13: Nineers and one about the Eagles was pertaining to the Cowboys, right.
- 1:06:08Speaker 13: I noticed. I couldn't help but noticed in the game
- 1:06:11Speaker 13: last night that the Niners only had two penalties I believe, right,
- 1:06:17Speaker 13: and one was and one was overruled by UH personal
- 1:06:21Speaker 13: foul against the Eagles. So in other words, the penalty
- 1:06:26Speaker 13: situation with the Cowboys are under twenty seven yard. That's ridiculous.
- 1:06:30Speaker 13: I think it got to the point to the point
- 1:06:32Speaker 13: now where they need to start policing themselves and had
- 1:06:35Speaker 13: like a kangaroo court type thing and anybody that had
- 1:06:38Speaker 13: a pre snap foul put a thousand dollars in the
- 1:06:41Speaker 13: catch and that money goes to charity at the end
- 1:06:43Speaker 13: of this eaves that was And there's some kind of
- 1:06:46Speaker 13: way they can discipline themselves. I don't know whether it'll work,
- 1:06:49Speaker 13: but it can't hurt, you know what I'm saying.
- 1:06:52Speaker 5: You know, and the penalty is just totally out.
- 1:06:54Speaker 13: Of control because you can't beat yourself against teams like
- 1:06:58Speaker 13: phill Loxias.
- 1:07:00Speaker 2: Yeah, especially when when they can get two to three
- 1:07:03Speaker 2: yards on any time they want if you make it
- 1:07:06Speaker 2: first and five. I mean, stay on sides.
- 1:07:09Speaker 5: I don't.
- 1:07:09Speaker 2: I don't, I don't. I mean I understand the jump
- 1:07:12Speaker 2: on the cadence, but don't understand the lining up all
- 1:07:15Speaker 2: sides like I just don't. I mean, you can you can.
- 1:07:18Speaker 2: I know there's not a line there like there is
- 1:07:20Speaker 2: on TV, but you can see the ball right, you
- 1:07:23Speaker 2: can see.
- 1:07:23Speaker 6: The ball exactly.
- 1:07:24Speaker 13: Stop because then as far as the Eagles looks returned
- 1:07:28Speaker 13: and that push thing in the middle of the field,
- 1:07:32Speaker 13: and you wouldn't need to do it just one time
- 1:07:34Speaker 13: the first time they try it, when the center goes
- 1:07:37Speaker 13: to get the ball, push them right on top of
- 1:07:39Speaker 13: it back in. Okay, Now when they're on the goal line,
- 1:07:44Speaker 13: you're not going to stop that play. So you do
- 1:07:47Speaker 13: the same thing as many times they try to do it.
- 1:07:50Speaker 13: When he goes to bend over to get the ball,
- 1:07:52Speaker 13: you push him the three guys in the middle, push
- 1:07:55Speaker 13: them right on top of the cornerback or right on
- 1:07:57Speaker 13: back into the backfield, because then you're not they're going
- 1:08:00Speaker 13: to make that touchdown of it. But you have to
- 1:08:02Speaker 13: make them stop that place. And the only way you're
- 1:08:06Speaker 13: going to stop it is to take that old behind
- 1:08:09Speaker 13: center and push him before he even touches that ball.
- 1:08:13Speaker 2: Oh, just just just a fall start, just I mean,
- 1:08:15Speaker 2: just an off sides.
- 1:08:17Speaker 13: Blow him up. Yes, the three guys blow him up
- 1:08:20Speaker 13: because it's an off side anyway, Well, halfoid, you're the
- 1:08:23Speaker 13: one yard line, how far are you going to go?
- 1:08:25Speaker 13: They're going to get in?
- 1:08:27Speaker 2: You just do that like two three times, keep the take.
- 1:08:30Speaker 13: Before they need to stop it. But it's not rugby.
- 1:08:35Speaker 13: It is football.
- 1:08:38Speaker 2: I've heard. I've heard a lot of things about that,
- 1:08:40Speaker 2: and uh, I've heard different, you know, different ways to
- 1:08:42Speaker 2: stop it. And I mean, it's funny because now you're
- 1:08:45Speaker 2: at a point where the things that are being said
- 1:08:48Speaker 2: are against the rules, and one of them not heards
- 1:08:50Speaker 2: against the law. But you know, it's funny. I think
- 1:08:53Speaker 2: I think, like I said before, the person that's going
- 1:08:55Speaker 2: to stop it is Roger Goodell, and it sounds like
- 1:08:57Speaker 2: that they're actually moving forward with that. And again I've
- 1:09:02Speaker 2: said this before. This is not like, oh, no one
- 1:09:05Speaker 2: can stop it, so don't do it. It's it's not
- 1:09:08Speaker 2: the it's not football. It's not the way you play
- 1:09:11Speaker 2: other positions. You don't get to do that. You don't
- 1:09:14Speaker 2: put someone on there on your shoulders and go block
- 1:09:17Speaker 2: a field goal. You don't do that. You can't leverage.
- 1:09:20Speaker 2: So why are you making yourself stronger by pushing people
- 1:09:22Speaker 2: in the back. I don't understand it. Now. The key
- 1:09:25Speaker 2: that they're going to have to figure out is do
- 1:09:27Speaker 2: they want to take that out? Are you also going
- 1:09:30Speaker 2: to take out the run? I think I think the
- 1:09:32Speaker 2: forty nine ers had one the other day where they
- 1:09:34Speaker 2: got stopped at the eight and they pushed them all
- 1:09:37Speaker 2: the way to the one. Are you going to stop that?
- 1:09:40Speaker 13: Like?
- 1:09:40Speaker 2: Down the field plays as well, So that's probably what
- 1:09:43Speaker 2: they have to figure out too, because because that happens too,
- 1:09:45Speaker 2: I mean, they just push people. And I can't stand
- 1:09:48Speaker 2: that either. So all right, but that's we'll figure out
- 1:09:52Speaker 2: how to We'll see what the NFL does with that.
- 1:09:54Speaker 2: It'll be interesting. But uh, it's it's an advantage for
- 1:09:57Speaker 2: Philly and and it and it starts with Kelsey. I mean,
- 1:09:59Speaker 2: it really does. I mean that he's I'm not saying
- 1:10:02Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts isn't a part of it, but I mean
- 1:10:03Speaker 2: they have a center that that really understands that that
- 1:10:07Speaker 2: part of it and that play and does a great
- 1:10:09Speaker 2: job with it. All Right, we were I've never said
- 1:10:12Speaker 2: this before, so I'm gonna say it right now. Our
- 1:10:15Speaker 2: seventeenth caller of the day is Alan in Korea.
- 1:10:21Speaker 10: Alan, I'm going there.
- 1:10:24Speaker 5: Good.
- 1:10:24Speaker 10: How are you doing good? It's one forty three am.
- 1:10:28Speaker 10: You're in Korea?
- 1:10:30Speaker 2: Wow, one forty three Huh.
- 1:10:34Speaker 5: What are you doing?
- 1:10:34Speaker 2: What are you doing up so late?
- 1:10:38Speaker 10: I won't set my alarm to call in.
- 1:10:41Speaker 2: Awesome. Awesome, Well I think I think not only first
- 1:10:45Speaker 2: time caller, but uh also I mean we I mean
- 1:10:49Speaker 2: this is our this this is our seventeenth call. So
- 1:10:52Speaker 2: here we go, Here we go. What's up?
- 1:10:53Speaker 3: Man?
- 1:10:54Speaker 10: Right up? I just wanted to mention something that I saw.
- 1:10:58Speaker 10: There was a third and sixteen and this was something
- 1:11:03Speaker 10: I hopefully use team in this game of gets Eagles.
- 1:11:06Speaker 10: But you had Ferguson and Tony Pollard both in chip
- 1:11:12Speaker 10: blocks on a defensive end. Ferguson puts sud Guy on
- 1:11:16Speaker 10: butt yep, and then Tony Pollard knocks sud Guy into
- 1:11:21Speaker 10: uri and then Jake Ferguson goes and gets the first down.
- 1:11:26Speaker 10: So I think stuff like that, disrupting the pass rushers
- 1:11:30Speaker 10: is going to be is gonna be what needed yep.
- 1:11:33Speaker 10: And then just dominates from Terren Smith blocking two rushers.
- 1:11:38Speaker 10: That's just crazy, right, So yeah, that's all I got.
- 1:11:41Speaker 10: Just hopefully get to see more of that disrupting those
- 1:11:44Speaker 10: pass rushers.
- 1:11:45Speaker 2: Sure, it's the timing of everything. Thanks for the call,
- 1:11:48Speaker 2: ALAN appreciate that. Get some sleep here. It's almost two
- 1:11:51Speaker 2: o'clock in the morning over there. I appreciate that of
- 1:11:55Speaker 2: course that's our third caller here from outside the country.
- 1:11:58Speaker 2: So that's awesome. And obviously, like I said, the most
- 1:12:01Speaker 2: we've ever had. Of course, adding an extra thirty minutes
- 1:12:04Speaker 2: helps with that, and so that's why I figured we
- 1:12:06Speaker 2: would do that. But yeah, as for the tight ends,
- 1:12:08Speaker 2: I think for sure the timing of chipping these these
- 1:12:13Speaker 2: defensive ends just kind of throwing things off a little bit. Obviously,
- 1:12:16Speaker 2: you want to get to a point where you know
- 1:12:18Speaker 2: you wouldn't need the help. Tyron hasn't needed a lot
- 1:12:20Speaker 2: of help in his career, and you know, Terrence Steele,
- 1:12:24Speaker 2: you know, you want to get to that point where
- 1:12:25Speaker 2: where you don't have to stay in there. But but
- 1:12:28Speaker 2: you know, if they can make some plays, especially if
- 1:12:30Speaker 2: you have tight ends that can that can get up
- 1:12:32Speaker 2: the field. That third and sixteen play, I mean that
- 1:12:35Speaker 2: was huge. That was a big play in the game
- 1:12:36Speaker 2: early on to Ferguson, and he caught it and needed
- 1:12:40Speaker 2: what still needed fifteen yards or so to get the
- 1:12:43Speaker 2: first and so he's got the ability to do that
- 1:12:45Speaker 2: and and he's really he's really becoming a playmaking tight end.
- 1:12:50Speaker 2: And if you have that on this team with CD
- 1:12:53Speaker 2: and Cooks and of course the you know Pollard and
- 1:12:56Speaker 2: all that. If you you have a playmaking tight end
- 1:12:58Speaker 2: that you can throw into the mix here, that that
- 1:13:01Speaker 2: changes a lot of things. And we see that in
- 1:13:03Speaker 2: Kansas City because Kelsey absolutely can make plays in the
- 1:13:08Speaker 2: tackles and all that stuff. All right, let's go to
- 1:13:10Speaker 2: our next caller here, Diego in the Bronx. What's up, Hey,
- 1:13:15Speaker 2: what's up?
- 1:13:16Speaker 13: Nick?
- 1:13:16Speaker 12: How you doing?
- 1:13:16Speaker 2: I'm good?
- 1:13:18Speaker 12: All right, I just got two things I want to
- 1:13:20Speaker 12: speak on. So the first is actually about Dak Prescott.
- 1:13:24Speaker 12: I know, a few weeks ago he spoke to the
- 1:13:26Speaker 12: media about like speaking on an angry fans kind of thing.
- 1:13:30Speaker 12: A few years ago, back in twenty eighteen, he had
- 1:13:33Speaker 12: blocked me on Twitter. Yeah, but I was just so
- 1:13:38Speaker 12: upset about us losing our twenty year roll more like
- 1:13:40Speaker 12: the year prior, and then Dez Bryan was heading out there.
- 1:13:43Speaker 13: Yeah, I was really emotional. I was a big dead guy.
- 1:13:46Speaker 12: I wasn't on the Dak train yet. But I'm the
- 1:13:49Speaker 12: same guy in twenty twenty when he got injured. I
- 1:13:52Speaker 12: even popped a tear for the guy when he got
- 1:13:54Speaker 12: hurt and stuff like that. Yeah, So if I could
- 1:13:58Speaker 12: ever get him the unblood gut some point, man, that
- 1:14:01Speaker 12: that would be great.
- 1:14:02Speaker 13: You know.
- 1:14:03Speaker 12: The second thing was, I took a trip to Philadelphia
- 1:14:07Speaker 12: week nine by myself, and I sat and sat in
- 1:14:10Speaker 12: the stance by myself, and man, I tell you, those
- 1:14:13Speaker 12: fans they did me bad man. Every time up and
- 1:14:17Speaker 12: down the aisle. They just kept coming after me with
- 1:14:19Speaker 12: the booze. So Cowboys fans next week at the cadium,
- 1:14:23Speaker 12: up and down the isle, please give him hell. That'd
- 1:14:26Speaker 12: be great.
- 1:14:27Speaker 2: Was that all that it was was just the booze?
- 1:14:29Speaker 2: I mean, I know, I know that. I mean that's
- 1:14:31Speaker 2: not fun. But as long as it wasn't like physical
- 1:14:33Speaker 2: or anything.
- 1:14:34Speaker 12: Oh no, no, they couldn't. People know who to mess with.
- 1:14:37Speaker 12: I'm like a big guy, I played football myself, I'm
- 1:14:39Speaker 12: older in New York City, so the people know who
- 1:14:42Speaker 12: the mess with.
- 1:14:42Speaker 7: I gave it.
- 1:14:43Speaker 12: I gave them for fair share as well.
- 1:14:45Speaker 2: So well you almost you almost got the last laugh there.
- 1:14:48Speaker 2: So uh but uh now I appreciate, you know, I
- 1:14:52Speaker 2: applaud you going up there with you know, by yourself
- 1:14:54Speaker 2: and saying, yeah, you know, what are they gonna do?
- 1:14:57Speaker 2: But uh yeah, I mean it's you know, they're they're
- 1:15:00Speaker 2: obviously they're passionate about their team and all that, and
- 1:15:03Speaker 2: it's an experience. But I'm sure there wasn't a lot
- 1:15:06Speaker 2: of that going on yesterday. And I bet you there
- 1:15:08Speaker 2: there was a lot of forty nine er fans there.
- 1:15:09Speaker 2: Forty nine ers are they travel well to every place,
- 1:15:12Speaker 2: So I bet that was interesting. I won't be surprised
- 1:15:14Speaker 2: if you see that.
- 1:15:15Speaker 12: Go ahead, one more thing, one more thing, so I
- 1:15:18Speaker 12: have the Cowboys beating in footy by ten oh better
- 1:15:21Speaker 12: next week, guys, don't worry, We're gonna win.
- 1:15:23Speaker 2: All right, sounds good. I don't think you're missing a
- 1:15:25Speaker 2: whole lot on Dak on Twitter. I don't think he
- 1:15:27Speaker 2: does a whole lot there.
- 1:15:28Speaker 5: Uh.
- 1:15:29Speaker 2: He did young, you know, when he was younger. Of course,
- 1:15:31Speaker 2: there's a lot of history on that where he was
- 1:15:34Speaker 2: when he was in what high school or college when
- 1:15:36Speaker 2: he tweeted out about Romo, about being done with Romo
- 1:15:39Speaker 2: and then he ends up playing with him. Uh, he
- 1:15:41Speaker 2: was a little bit more active on Twitter than he
- 1:15:42Speaker 2: is now. I don't think he does a whole lot
- 1:15:44Speaker 2: other than like community type things and stuff. All right,
- 1:15:47Speaker 2: let's go to one more calling here Alan in Idaho.
- 1:15:51Speaker 16: Hey, Nick, how are you doing?
- 1:15:52Speaker 2: How good?
- 1:15:52Speaker 12: How are you?
- 1:15:53Speaker 16: Hey? Awesome, Hey, thanks for taking my call. Love the show.
- 1:15:57Speaker 16: Probably it just had a quick observation. It's kind of
- 1:16:00Speaker 16: in the games that I have seen with the Eagles,
- 1:16:03Speaker 16: looks like Lane Johnson, every single play is early, but
- 1:16:07Speaker 16: they're never calling it. What are your takes on that?
- 1:16:09Speaker 2: Hate it? I see? I paused it actually one time
- 1:16:13Speaker 2: in the game. I paused it like perfectly, and it
- 1:16:15Speaker 2: was like he was out ready to block two other
- 1:16:19Speaker 2: linemen still touching the ground with their with their hands
- 1:16:22Speaker 2: like now. I've heard people say he actually gets out
- 1:16:26Speaker 2: faster than the other guys, but I don't know, man,
- 1:16:30Speaker 2: it looks very early to me. And not only that,
- 1:16:32Speaker 2: he's lined up like three yards off the ball. So
- 1:16:35Speaker 2: that's another thing I hate is that they're so nitpicky
- 1:16:38Speaker 2: when it comes to like a helmet being across the
- 1:16:40Speaker 2: ball on the off or off sides, But yet you're
- 1:16:44Speaker 2: right tackle is pretty much, you know, even with a
- 1:16:47Speaker 2: quarterback and the shotgun. So I don't know, it's it's
- 1:16:51Speaker 2: but they don't ever call it.
- 1:16:54Speaker 16: I tried it last night too. There was one play
- 1:16:56Speaker 16: where it looks like both tackles like before the ball
- 1:16:58Speaker 16: was even snapped, they were both move and yeah, and
- 1:17:01Speaker 16: then then the ball comes out and of course nothing's
- 1:17:04Speaker 16: called and they get to play. But just frustrating because
- 1:17:07Speaker 16: we can't ever get anything like that really packing now.
- 1:17:10Speaker 2: It was frustrating that that happened in the Cowboys game
- 1:17:13Speaker 2: over and over and over and they ended up losing
- 1:17:16Speaker 2: the game because on the six yard line at the
- 1:17:18Speaker 2: end of the game, Tyler Smith gets a fall start
- 1:17:20Speaker 2: which was pretty you know, it was pretty questionable as well,
- 1:17:23Speaker 2: gets a fall start call and moves them back to
- 1:17:25Speaker 2: the eleven and then they get a sack, but you
- 1:17:27Speaker 2: don't get that fall start call call. I think the
- 1:17:29Speaker 2: Cowboys throw it four times from the six. I think
- 1:17:31Speaker 2: they score, but you know, it's just that's the way
- 1:17:35Speaker 2: that it goes. But you know, the Eagles finally got
- 1:17:37Speaker 2: some calls against them in that game because they hadn't
- 1:17:39Speaker 2: been getting a whole lot, but they did in that game.
- 1:17:43Speaker 16: Yeah, no, I agree, appreciate it.
- 1:17:45Speaker 2: All right, thank you for the call. That's Alan and Idaho.
- 1:17:48Speaker 2: That's our nineteenth caller, and I think that's going to
- 1:17:51Speaker 2: be it for us. Twenty would have been nice, but
- 1:17:54Speaker 2: something to shoot for, unless Chris, unless there's somebody calling
- 1:17:58Speaker 2: right now. We can maybe do that. I don't think so.
- 1:18:00Speaker 2: No one, no one. So that's it. We're gonna end
- 1:18:03Speaker 2: it with nineteen. It was a lot of fun. I
- 1:18:05Speaker 2: had a great time. I appreciate the you guys calling.
- 1:18:08Speaker 2: We got three from outside the US, New York with
- 1:18:12Speaker 2: the win New York. I mean a lot of calls
- 1:18:14Speaker 2: from New York here, from the Bronx and from Long Island.
- 1:18:18Speaker 2: We had we had five different calls from from the
- 1:18:21Speaker 2: state of New York. That was the winner of our
- 1:18:24Speaker 2: America's Team Challenge. I just made that up, but all right,
- 1:18:27Speaker 2: sounds good. This was great. Tomorrow back to normal time,
- 1:18:31Speaker 2: though it'll be ten am Central time. The Cowboys break
- 1:18:34Speaker 2: will be following us right now. So appreciate you guys.
- 1:18:37Speaker 2: For Chrisby, I'm nick Yatman. We'll see tomorrow on Cowboys storyline.
- 1:18:40Speaker 2: See you.
- 1:18:41Speaker 1: This has been a production of Dallascowboys dot Com and
- 1:18:44Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
