  Speaker 1: The following.

  Speaker 2: He is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: Cowboys.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: This is Cowboys Storyline with Nick Eatman.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: Good morning and welcome to Cowboys Storylines. Friday, September the
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: twenty seventh, and the Cowboys had a big win I
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: would say against the Giants last night, a few hours ago,
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: whatever it was. It was Thursday night. Cowboys defeat the
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Giants twenty to fifteen. I call it a big win
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: because they're one and two. They're one and two and
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: struggling to figure out what this team is, what this
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: defense looks like. Can they score? Can they run the ball?
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: Can they play together? Can they come together as a team.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: And the fact that they were able to do that
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: get the win, do it in the fashion that they did? Uh?
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: It was it was a big win. I mean to
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: get to this mini bye, it would you know, ten
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: days off at two and two. Way better than the alternative, obviously,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: and and you know it was it was not always pretty, uh,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: except for the win. Uh, and that that that counts
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: the most. So good good job for this team kind
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: of you know, figuring it out on the run. I
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: call it a very long short week, because that's that's
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: what it felt like. I mean, this team kind of
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: you know, pointing fingers at each other, bickering that they
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: need to do this details, we need to get all
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: these accountability leadership practice better, all these habits, you know,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: and they they figured out a way to get on
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: the road and be the Giants team. That's, you know,
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: thats not I don't the Giants aren't very good. They're
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: probably not going to be good. But I think this
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: is what what we can expect for the for the
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Cowboys team. These these games are going to be grinded
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: out games. I don't think the offense is good enough
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: to pull away. The defense is, you know, just good
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: enough to kind of bend but don't break. That's exactly
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: what they were last night. They they they bent a lot,
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: but they they never broke. They never gave up a touchdown.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: You're not gonna lose a lot of games if you
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: don't give up a touchdown. So it was just one
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: of those those hard fought NFC East type of games
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys. I credit the Cowboys for showing a lot
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: of fight, lot of grit, especially on defense, to battle
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: through the stuff that they had to battle to win
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: that game, So good job for them, and I know
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: everybody's a little bit relieved for to get a game
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: like that. All right, eight A eight eight five five
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: two two ninety seven is the number to call. Let's
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: go to the phone lines. Let's go to Brian in
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Kansas City.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: Good morning, next morning. Well that was a It's so
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: much easier to call in after a win.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: Man agreed, it's nicer to talk about it.
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, so, First I want to ask before I forget,
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: how do we the young man that had the game
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: winning interception? How do you pronounce it?
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: Amani?
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: Okay, I wasn't sure.
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: Al Michaels was trying to you know how like you
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: sometimes you mumble a little bit if you're not sure
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: where you're going with a name. Yeah, that's kind of
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: what I got from the national broadcast. I was like,
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: I wonder if that's really how that is. So I
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: appreciate it, and you know, I thought, you know, of
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: course Jim hasn't called to ask me my opinion yet,
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: but I thought he did enough to maybe get himself
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: above Booth in the in the depth chart. I mean,
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: you know, he had to tackle for a loss. You know,
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: he looked a little bit better than Booth out there.
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: And you know, Booth of course has got all the
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: pedigree with where he was drafted and everything, but just
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: he just looked a little bit better in the second
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: half than Booth did in the first half.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: There's no doubt about that. And they knew that going in.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: I mean they that's why they they promoted him at halftime.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: You know, uh a Rear gets gets the call at
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: the half, and you know, he's played a lot more football,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: and you know, this is a guy that got six
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: interceptions in a season with the Lions a couple of
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: years ago, so he can play. Had some injury issues
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: last year, but uh no, he looked he looked a
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: lot better as the game went on, and and uh yeah,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: without a doubt, I'm that's that's something I think you
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: gotta you gotta move him up now. I wouldn't. I
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: wouldn't put him on the practice squad again. I mean,
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: I don't know how all that would work specifically, but
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: I'm not putting him back on the practice squad. Might
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: poach him, you know, well, teams need corners all the time.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: I mean I would, I would flip that and he
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: can put Booth there if you want, teams can take him.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I would make that that flip for sure.
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Now, Booth Booth is a pretty good tackler. That's one
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: thing I have noticed about him. He's not a bad
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: tackler for the cornerback position. But uh yeah, he does
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: struggle to give up some plays and he did early
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: on in the game.
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: Cool. Yeah, I agree. Man.
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: Well, and I'm not gonna throw out an old time
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: player this week because I was gonna ask your opinion,
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: you know, if you could give us just a quick
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: update on whatever you know about injury status for everybody, Plan, Carson, Tank, Parsons, whatever,
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: whatever you know, you know, maybe feel it all up
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: in one little blurb here.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Thanks man, Thank you appreciate that. Thanks for the awareness
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: of the day and the call and all that stuff.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: I appreciate that. Brian injuries big part of I'll start
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: with with Parsons. I mean again, it's it's as we
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: take this. It's early on Friday. Guys are just kind
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: of getting back and a lot of the guys haven't
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: even come into the facility yet. My understanding, X rays
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: were negative on his ankle. They're hoping it's not a
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: high ankle sprain, of course, hoping against that. Just the
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: sound of Micah talking, it sounded like it wasn't going
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: to be too bad. I would be surprised if he
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: doesn't play against Pittsburgh. I'll be surprised if he misses
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: a game. I think if I had to put money
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: on it, I would say maybe he has a better
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: shot to play than Tank. But then again, Tank also
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: talked to in the locker room. Felt like he said
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: told me specifically, be fine he goes, I'll be fine
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: to spraying foot. We'll see how it goes with him. Carson,
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: you know, if you're doubtful for the last game, ten
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: days later, I would I would think you have a
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: shot to play. So that's that's where I think about Carson,
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: and then I'm missing in any other injury. But Bland,
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: you said dorn Bland, he's eligible to come back after
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, he's eligible to come back and be on
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: the roster this week. I have a hard time thinking
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: that's going to happen. Remember, this is a six to
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: eight week injury. This is it's been six weeks, so
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: this would be on the front end. Just because of
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: what we haven't seen yet I haven't seen him on
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: the cords a ton. He is getting back into it,
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: and we see some of the rehab, but not to
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: the point where you would think he's ready to go.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: I'll be surprised if he's ready for Pittsburgh on that one.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: But all right, let's go to Irene in Falls Church, Virginia.
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: Hey, good morning, next morning, Chris, Hey tough win. Our
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: offense really needs to get it going. But hey, props
• 7:28
  Speaker 5: to the defense. They made me look stupid playing Devin Singletary.
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: I thought he was going to crush it. But I
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: am happy for that.
• 7:34
  Speaker 6: One thing.
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: I gotta say, Washington. I live outside Washington, and were
• 7:39
  Speaker 5: they where everyone was ready to crown them as you know,
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: maybe even winning the division after beating the O and
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: two Bengals and now in now Oho and three They
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: only beat the Giants on the strength of seven field
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: goals twenty one to eighteen. I don't think a lot
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: of people realize that. So let's pump the brakes. Maybe
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: the Giants defense is better than we are giving him
• 7:59
  Speaker 5: credit for. And I don't know, just let's pump the
• 8:02
  Speaker 5: brakes and give them some credit. Or hey, I have
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: a pronunciation, right, when I called in, I was excited
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: about that signing. Uh, glad you asked to clarify that
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: it felt good to hear it.
• 8:16
  Speaker 7: I'd like to.
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: See him definitely above booth going forward. My poor man,
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: he's still really great at tackling, but he shouldn't have
• 8:23
  Speaker 5: so much.
• 8:24
  Speaker 7: Practice of tackling, right.
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: And then my one, my one question is why is
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: Israel mcwalmoo like cornerback six or seven on this geame?
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: All right, that's it.
• 8:33
  Speaker 7: Happy for the win, but it's rough.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: I guess being in Virginia, I guess people are talking
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: a lot about Washington. I haven't heard that that they
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: there's that they needed to pump the brakes on that.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, I get it. They've won a couple of games,
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: but I don't know who I mean. I guess I
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: guess there's people that are excited about it, but you know,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: it's still it's a lot. It's a long season. They
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: there is some good excitement. I'm sure there should be.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: I mean, dan Quinn, he's he's done a good job
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: at places he's been and and they have a quarterback
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: that seems you know, he's fun to watch. He's a
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: rookie he's gonna have some issues too, but uh, you know,
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Cowboys will face him when they face him. But yeah,
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, you're right. The Giants defense was it. They're
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: they're they're tough. You know, they're tough to score against.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: They play a bin but don't break style as well.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: But but they did have a couple, you know, there
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: was a couple of big plays, especially the one to
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: CD for the touchdown that that opened the things up.
• 9:33
  Speaker 8: Uh.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: To answer your question on the Kwamu, because he's the
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: sixth seventh, because he because he's really a safety, you know,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: he's he's that in between safety corner, special teams guy.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: So you know, we'll see when Bland comes back and
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: how how that changes things. But yeah, I'd put over
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: a boy had it going and then it's every once
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: in a while you just kind of mess it up. Uh.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: Jorge Lewis calls him Ao. Sounds good to me. I like,
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: I like that Ao.
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: He.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: I'd put him on the team though, I mean I'm
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: not I'm not messing around with corners.
• 10:10
  Speaker 9: Uh.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: On the practice squad. I mean you're gonna go in
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: and you know, without really practicing a whole lot and
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: and and play half of football and play pretty well.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: I'm fine with that. I'd put him on the team,
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: all right. Rob in Vegas, Hey, Nick, Hey, good morning.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: How you doing.
• 10:30
  Speaker 10: I'm good. I mean, listen like somebody who you don't
• 10:33
  Speaker 10: apologize for a win. But it was it was ugly.
• 10:36
  Speaker 10: I mean the refs had a lot to do with
• 10:38
  Speaker 10: it too. I mean, trying to watch that game, the
• 10:40
  Speaker 10: flow is just awful.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right.
• 10:45
  Speaker 10: It's the guys that they lost is really affecting this team.
• 10:49
  Speaker 10: You know, you don't realize how good these guys are.
• 10:52
  Speaker 10: Title God Fowler, Armstrong and Hankins. Leaving has wrecked this
• 10:57
  Speaker 10: defensive line. Those were good pass rushers they you know,
• 11:00
  Speaker 10: Armstrong your pencil in for six seven stacks. We have
• 11:03
  Speaker 10: no pass rush. And Micah is getting beat up. I
• 11:07
  Speaker 10: thought Michael said to himself yesterday, I'm gonna play the round.
• 11:10
  Speaker 10: If you notice, the RPO never happened because Micah stayed
• 11:14
  Speaker 10: home and and but what's happening now is he's getting
• 11:18
  Speaker 10: worn down. You know I always said he was too small.
• 11:21
  Speaker 10: He's getting beat up, and then when it is time
• 11:24
  Speaker 10: to rush to pass it, he's not explosive. And they
• 11:27
  Speaker 10: have nobody else DeMarcus Lawrence, he looks he doesn't look
• 11:31
  Speaker 10: the same. And Neiland is not a pass rusher, and
• 11:35
  Speaker 10: that's what's I mean. I never seen Daniel Jones had
• 11:38
  Speaker 10: just way too much time. That's what really affected the
• 11:42
  Speaker 10: defense against the run. They were excellent, but when you
• 11:45
  Speaker 10: when you try to stop the run that much, you're gonna,
• 11:48
  Speaker 10: you know, put guys offensively. Guidon was killing us. I mean,
• 11:53
  Speaker 10: I think this kid, when you watch him, and it's
• 11:56
  Speaker 10: taught to just watch him, I think next year he'll
• 12:00
  Speaker 10: be good. But this year now he's he looked slow
• 12:04
  Speaker 10: and speed rushes are going to dominate him. And I
• 12:08
  Speaker 10: just think that's how nice would it be to have
• 12:10
  Speaker 10: Tyron Smith because I think that would be a huge
• 12:13
  Speaker 10: or even on any left tackle that is a veteran,
• 12:17
  Speaker 10: I think would really help this team. And I don't
• 12:19
  Speaker 10: see you getting one of them. I thought Mike McCarthy again,
• 12:23
  Speaker 10: I just don't. First of all his offenses is there's
• 12:28
  Speaker 10: no motion at all. It's like he totally took it
• 12:31
  Speaker 10: out of the offense. And why I don't know, But
• 12:33
  Speaker 10: I actually thought Dallas was running the ball the best
• 12:37
  Speaker 10: last night than all year, and then when we needed
• 12:40
  Speaker 10: it on third and one, when we could have put
• 12:42
  Speaker 10: this game away. He tries to reverse and it's like
• 12:47
  Speaker 10: you went for it on fourt in one with Lipkey.
• 12:49
  Speaker 10: Lipkey made a great play or he was going to
• 12:51
  Speaker 10: be short. I just I don't know.
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: I don't know that.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: I don't know what that play you're talking about on reverse.
• 12:57
  Speaker 10: So when when we held them to foot down, then
• 13:03
  Speaker 10: we get the ball back. It was third and one,
• 13:05
  Speaker 10: It was about four minutes left. It was the series
• 13:09
  Speaker 10: before the the Giants were on fourth down and Neighbors
• 13:14
  Speaker 10: dropped it on the sideline and then it looked like
• 13:16
  Speaker 10: he was laid out on the sideline, so you could
• 13:20
  Speaker 10: you could have put the game where you score a
• 13:22
  Speaker 10: touchdown there, this game's over. Yeah, And on third and
• 13:25
  Speaker 10: one he runs the reverse. It we lose, and that's
• 13:27
  Speaker 10: when I believe Aubrey showed that he was he was
• 13:34
  Speaker 10: human and he missed the field goal.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, I don't I don't see that there was
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: a reverse. That's a CD in the third in the
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: fourth quarter on second and sixth at the Giant twenty
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: one and he lost our yard that I thought that
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: that was that might be the one you're talking.
• 13:51
  Speaker 10: About, But no, no, No, I'm talking about the one.
• 13:54
  Speaker 10: There was one after that, Okay, there was one that.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: All right, yeah, we don't need to go through all that.
• 13:58
  Speaker 10: I just don't. I just know how you Unfortunately a
• 14:01
  Speaker 10: lot of these things. You can't fix it this year.
• 14:05
  Speaker 10: You can't fix your left tackle, you can't get past rushes,
• 14:08
  Speaker 10: nobody's giving those up running. Like I said, Zeke actually
• 14:13
  Speaker 10: looked pretty good. Yeah, but this is this is not
• 14:19
  Speaker 10: a good team. It's it's too much of a struggle,
• 14:22
  Speaker 10: uh to do what they have to do. And unfortunately,
• 14:27
  Speaker 10: I think next year, hopefully.
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: It'll be better.
• 14:30
  Speaker 10: But I just thought the fair issues, I don't see
• 14:33
  Speaker 10: them being fixed this year.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, well I I don't agree, and thank
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: thanks Rob. I mean again, whether or not they're going
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: to get fixed this year or not or whatever, like
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: it's irrelevant to me when when we haven't even hit October.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: So I know, I know I took some some flak
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: for for the last what day was that Tuesday? We
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: got a call and the guy said it wasn't gonna
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: get fixed and we moved on. I mean, there's enough
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: people that want to get in on the shows that
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: want to talk about this game and the next game
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: and then in this month and all that. So that's fine, Rob,
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: I know you'll you'll call back, you'll be there, like
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: if that's how you feel, that's how you feel that,
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: that's fine. It may not get fixed this year or
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: or I don't know what fixed is. I don't know
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: what the expectations are. This is what the season is
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: probably gonna be. It's gonna be this type of game,
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: this type of season. You know, they're gonna have to
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: to battle out these games. It's gonna be fun. I mean,
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: that's why I look at it. I mean, it's it's
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: it's not probably not a twelve and five type of season.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: But you know, I give them a lot of credit
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: for how they how they won that game, you know.
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: And that's why I live in the moment the guys.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: I've said it a billion times. That's why I don't
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: look ahead and try to say they're gonna be in
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: the playoffs, are gonna have a buye, They're gonna do this.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: They're gonna go to New York and play and and
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: and they're gonna try to win. And they did, and
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: next week they're going to Pittsburgh and uh, we'll see
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: I hope Pittsburgh wins this week whoever they play, because
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: I don't think they're they're anywhere close to as good
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: as their record, so it'd be nice if they are
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: for now. I think that would be good for the
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: Cowboys to go up there and play them. But a
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: lot of stuff mentioned there. You know, I don't think
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: anybody was saying, you know, Darren's Armstrong down, Dante Fowler
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: and Hankins. I mean, losing them was going to hurt
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: the team. I'm sure it's hurt some, but but don't forget.
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: I mean, Sam Williams was supposed to be a really
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: really big part of this pass rush and he got
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: hurt in training camp. I mean, that's that that was
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: very unfortunate. But Sam Williams, the juice that he brings
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: off the edge, they certainly certainly missed that. All right,
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: let's go to Lewis and Langston, Oklahoma.
• 16:47
  Speaker 11: Hey, what's going on?
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: Hey? Are you not much?
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: Man?
• 16:51
  Speaker 7: I always call I'll be talking about the linebackers and
• 16:55
  Speaker 7: the big boys up front. And I wanted to give
• 16:58
  Speaker 7: a shout out to Mazi because he looked like he
• 17:01
  Speaker 7: was he had a chip on the shoulder and he
• 17:02
  Speaker 7: was playing as hard as possible, So I give a
• 17:05
  Speaker 7: big shout out to him and all over shown and
• 17:08
  Speaker 7: the linebackers behind him. Hopefully we can build off of
• 17:11
  Speaker 7: that and make something happen because he showed a lot of.
• 17:15
  Speaker 12: Fight and outside of that.
• 17:17
  Speaker 7: You know, I hope Lawrence is okay, and I hope
• 17:19
  Speaker 7: the laws I mean, Parsons is okay. But I stay
• 17:23
  Speaker 7: too long. I want to give a shout out to
• 17:24
  Speaker 7: the office. I'm starting to irritate watching them get balked
• 17:28
  Speaker 7: down in the second half. It's almost like those that
• 17:32
  Speaker 7: first half they kind of got a planing, and then
• 17:34
  Speaker 7: the second half is like they don't. It's almost watching
• 17:37
  Speaker 7: them like they don't have any adjustments and they get
• 17:40
  Speaker 7: balked down too much. But I mean, hey, we've got
• 17:43
  Speaker 7: a couple of scores out of it. The defense stood
• 17:45
  Speaker 7: up tall, and we're not talking about three hundred yards
• 17:47
  Speaker 7: worth of rushing, So I'm cool with that. Like you
• 17:50
  Speaker 7: said earlier, I'll take this win even if it was ugly.
• 17:53
  Speaker 7: We could look at the film, learn from it, and
• 17:56
  Speaker 7: get ready for Pittsburgh.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: So I thank you. You know, Mazzi did play well.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's what you're supposed to do at that
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: position is push, push people back, make plays, run to
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: the ball, uh, clog up lanes, take take on double teams,
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: and and and win some battles. He did, and the
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: linebackers played better. Let me think about it. He Mazzi
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: and Iosa played better. Overshowing Kendricks flying around making all
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: kinds of plays to the ball. I think overshown I
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: had nine Kendricks had thirteen tackles. That's a product of
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: your defensive tackles doing, doing a good job. All right,

• 19:56
  Speaker 1: Rio Grand Valley's our next caller. Bob, what's up?
• 20:01
  Speaker 12: Warner? Nick?
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: I'm good.
• 20:04
  Speaker 12: I'm I'm a little encouraged after what I saw last night.
• 20:09
  Speaker 12: If you remember a few weeks ago, I said that
• 20:12
  Speaker 12: this was a young team, uh and it was going
• 20:17
  Speaker 12: to take a while. With all the time to get
• 20:18
  Speaker 12: her uh. And I see some improvements in some of
• 20:25
  Speaker 12: the players. I see some backsliding in some of the players,
• 20:30
  Speaker 12: not necessarily backsliding, but having a hard time learning all
• 20:36
  Speaker 12: the intropucees of what what they're expected to do, like
• 20:42
  Speaker 12: Tyler guiding that he did not have a good night
• 20:45
  Speaker 12: if he didn't. But I think the coaching staff will
• 20:48
  Speaker 12: keep working with him and work that out. What encouraged
• 20:51
  Speaker 12: me last night was the way we stopped and run,
• 20:55
  Speaker 12: and I was also encouraged with this piecemeal running game
• 21:00
  Speaker 12: that we've got.
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: Uh.
• 21:03
  Speaker 12: We made Danny Dimes look too good a few times,
• 21:06
  Speaker 12: but as we all know, and you give him enough time,
• 21:10
  Speaker 12: if he has throw it, if he has to throw
• 21:12
  Speaker 12: the ball enough, he's come through it to you. And
• 21:14
  Speaker 12: he sure did. Yeah, I think I'm still the opinion Nick,
• 21:21
  Speaker 12: and I don't know what you think, but this is
• 21:24
  Speaker 12: almost like a rebuild. We lost so much talent to
• 21:27
  Speaker 12: free agency because of mismanagement of funds, and that's on
• 21:31
  Speaker 12: the that's on the front office, that's not on the team,
• 21:35
  Speaker 12: and it's going to take a while for these boys
• 21:37
  Speaker 12: to jail and come together. But I'm encouraged and I'm
• 21:41
  Speaker 12: I'm I'm curious as to what you think, Well.
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: I mean the mismanagement of funds, like in what way
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: that that we kicked.
• 21:51
  Speaker 12: The can down the road to them many times and
• 21:53
  Speaker 12: we run out of money, We couldn't keep all that
• 21:56
  Speaker 12: talent that we had it and they became free agents
• 22:00
  Speaker 12: and now they're playing for somebody else and playing against us.
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: So you're you're saying, just like, finish like nine and eight,
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: and don't finish twelve and five, like finish like nine
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: and eight, nine and eight and so so, so you
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: wouldn't have success then, so you'd be better now. I mean,
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: that's that's what's kind of weird about about that, that statement,
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: is that, I mean the mismanaged it. They they they
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: went for it. That's what happened, is they they they
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: went for it and they missed. They got closed, but
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: they missed. But if that's mismanagement, then then that's that's
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: what is. I don't look at it that way. I
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: look at it that they they tried, that they put in,
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: they tried to get, you know, and they're also signing
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: these players to long term to keep the core. But
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: that that's that's the way I see it, is they
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: went for it, and that all this all in stuff,
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: that's what Jerry has been in his mind, kicking the can.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: That's what it's been. And it's all led to kind
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: of right here. And you know, it doesn't.
• 22:59
  Speaker 12: Look like it's gonna we're gonna have to pay the
• 23:01
  Speaker 12: price for it.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 23:02
  Speaker 12: Yeah, And and and we're doing that.
• 23:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 23:07
  Speaker 12: And if we'll just keep our keep our cool, keep
• 23:10
  Speaker 12: our heads together, stay behind her Cowboys. Eventually, if if
• 23:15
  Speaker 12: he leaves his coaching staff that he's got intact, they
• 23:18
  Speaker 12: will turn this this group of young men into a
• 23:21
  Speaker 12: during good team. I'm very very confident of that.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you know, I I think so too.
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: Things thanks Bob. I mean, and and again, if if
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: you have cat problems you I mean, you can say
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: it's mismanagement of cap. I mean, if if you don't win,
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: then you didn't manage it the right way. I mean
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: that you could always make that statement. But I mean
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: I don't I don't know if was there a ton
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: of contracts that you look at and go, I shouldn't
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: have paid him, shouldn't have paid him, shouldn't have done that.
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I think the Cowboys are doing
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: what they what they had to do to try to
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: you know, try to try to win, and there hadn't
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: been a lot of guys that have just left it.
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: You're like, man, that that was a bad move, and
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: you can you can make that argument with Amari, but
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: you know, they they they re signed a few players,
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: a few core players in in the absence of getting
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: rid of him with that money. All right, let's go
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: to Mike in a Popka, Florida. Mike, what's up, Bud?
• 24:19
  Speaker 6: Hey Man?
• 24:20
  Speaker 14: Good?
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: How are you? First caller ever on the show? On
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: the Cowboy Story? First? He's like, he's the trivia question answer,
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: first question, first caller ever.
• 24:29
  Speaker 6: I appreciate that. Listen, I want to thank you in
• 24:31
  Speaker 6: persons you guys, I know, late late night, early early morning,
• 24:35
  Speaker 6: and you're right here on the show, you know, letting
• 24:38
  Speaker 6: the fans have a voice. And I know you probably
• 24:42
  Speaker 6: are liking sleep, but I like the want to let
• 24:44
  Speaker 6: you guys know, I appreciate.
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: You, and I appreciate you saying that because I'm working
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: on about two hours beam I don't even know, probably
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: about the same. Because you know, the thing is, the kids,
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: their schools don't change, the hours don't change. When when
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: they're when the dads come in time in the morning.
• 25:02
  Speaker 6: You guys, you know, listen windows or drill. You guys
• 25:04
  Speaker 6: are there for us. I appreciate you, man. So a
• 25:07
  Speaker 6: couple of quick things I had to listen to wains
• 25:09
  Speaker 6: to win. I'll take it. I really feel like from
• 25:14
  Speaker 6: a defensive standpoint, we have to improve our safety play.
• 25:19
  Speaker 6: Donovan Wilson is is not good. He misses too many tackles,
• 25:22
  Speaker 6: takes some bad angles, doesn't isn't great in coverage. I mean,
• 25:26
  Speaker 6: I feel like if he had tackles Singletary yesterday or
• 25:30
  Speaker 6: last night, that game would have been over.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: And I believe I believe that too. I believe that
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: was the biggest play for that game to change the
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: course of the game because I think the cop was
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: win by three touchdowns. If he's if he makes that tackle.
• 25:45
  Speaker 6: As a safety, that's that's you got.
• 25:48
  Speaker 12: To make that.
• 25:49
  Speaker 6: I mean, yeah, they didn't even block them.
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: It was perfectly called play, and I think wasn't wasn't
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: the broadcast circling him like before the like was that
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: Herb Street or whatever. I don't know why they were
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: circling him, like watch out for him, And it was
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: all it was executed perfectly and and he just missed it.
• 26:11
  Speaker 6: Yeah, he's just too undisciplined for me. I would put
• 26:14
  Speaker 6: Thomas in there because I think he's a better tackler
• 26:17
  Speaker 6: and I think he can do all the same things.
• 26:21
  Speaker 6: Just my opinion. A couple of a couple of other things.
• 26:23
  Speaker 6: I think the rookies. Listen, when you play all these rookies,
• 26:28
  Speaker 6: you know, lega foul and DBI and and guys, these
• 26:31
  Speaker 6: guys are going to have bumps and bruises. You got
• 26:33
  Speaker 6: to stick with them and you got to support them.
• 26:35
  Speaker 6: And hopefully as the year progresses, they get better and
• 26:38
  Speaker 6: better and better. And and that should that should be
• 26:41
  Speaker 6: you know, even overshown to me a rookie still, Yeah,
• 26:45
  Speaker 6: so we should see an improvement there. The last thing
• 26:48
  Speaker 6: I think with this offense, these defenses are just they're
• 26:54
  Speaker 6: not like worried about the run, so they're they're stifling
• 26:57
  Speaker 6: the passing game. And I think that's there's not a
• 27:00
  Speaker 6: lot of shots downfield. And I think like Cooks is
• 27:05
  Speaker 6: just not that guy anymore. I think we almost either
• 27:09
  Speaker 6: have to trade for a wide receiver or trade for
• 27:11
  Speaker 6: a running back with some speed that can just you know,
• 27:16
  Speaker 6: oh crap. The defense, the defense is an open up
• 27:19
  Speaker 6: the field for the for the CD and ferguson the work.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: All right, all right, thanks Mike, appreciate the call. Yeah,
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: I don't know if they're gonna be making trades for
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: the definitely gonna be making trade for a receiver. I
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: can't see that, but I mean maybe maybe a running back.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: They did piece it together a little bit. I thought
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: one of the most impressive runs was a seven yard
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: run by Zeke at the end of the game. I thought,
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: you know, and now he's he's fresh, of course, but
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: you know, three twenty one to go, you take over
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: and at the Giants forty five yard line and on
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: first down you get seven yards. That that that really
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: led to the Giant and it's getting the ball back
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: with twenty eight seconds to go. You know, you get
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: two yards there, you're going to have to punt and
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: then try to pin them down there or maybe take
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: a long field goal or whatever. But getting seven yards there,
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, that was able to talk to take it
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: off from three to twenty one all the way down
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: to twenty eight seconds. So big, big kudos to that
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: play right there, because it's hard to run the ball
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: in general, especially when they know you're going to run
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: for this team. It's a nice play there. All right,
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: let's keep it going. Rick in Massachusetts, Hey.
• 28:35
  Speaker 8: Chris Nick, how you doing good? How are you all right?
• 28:40
  Speaker 8: I'm more of you know, like even kill a positive
• 28:43
  Speaker 8: guy at the game. You know, it's a good win,
• 28:47
  Speaker 8: even though we had our issues with a few people.
• 28:50
  Speaker 8: But I thought to you the the using of the
• 28:54
  Speaker 8: running backs the way they did with the rico first
• 28:57
  Speaker 8: and then throwing in ziki hearing and use the lift
• 29:01
  Speaker 8: key uncertain, I think that was good. Mazzie looked well,
• 29:05
  Speaker 8: look good to that looked good and I like a
• 29:10
  Speaker 8: booth of I think he's probably will probably be as
• 29:15
  Speaker 8: him or mcwomills should take his spot. But that well,
• 29:20
  Speaker 8: I think we did goodwill. This was for two with
• 29:22
  Speaker 8: Princeburgh brings hopefully Mike the part and Dila will be
• 29:27
  Speaker 8: back to help out that.
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: But all right, yeah, thanks thanks for the call, Rick,
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: I mean kind of summed it up really quickly there.
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: Appreciate that, and I don't disagree with any of that.
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: You know, obviously you hope the guys get get back
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: healthy and they need their pass rushers for sure, everybody does,
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: and they certainly need theirs. It's impressive. I just I
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: like the way he came in and played. I mean,
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: he's professional, the way you know he's he looked like
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: a guy that's played in this league four or five years.
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: He did a nice job, and I could see, you know,
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: they're gonna have to do something when Blaine comes back again.
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: I don't know if it's this week, but it'll be.
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: It'll be sooner than later. All right, let's go Rex
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: in Frisco, Texas. Rex, how are we doing right down
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: the street?
• 30:18
  Speaker 15: Yes, sir, I was just gonna three quick hits and
• 30:22
  Speaker 15: then I'll hang up and listen.
• 30:24
  Speaker 14: Uh.
• 30:24
  Speaker 15: First, let's not forget Ao was a starter with Detroit
• 30:28
  Speaker 15: and had six interceptions only two years ago, so he's
• 30:31
  Speaker 15: not just some guy off the street. He's a decent
• 30:33
  Speaker 15: cornerback in the league. You know, we'll we'll see where
• 30:36
  Speaker 15: he goes from here, but definitely a solid backup second Zeke.
• 30:41
  Speaker 15: He also had a nine yard run washed away by
• 30:43
  Speaker 15: a penalty, and his numbers wouldn't be awful as a
• 30:47
  Speaker 15: as a role player runner if it wasn't for that
• 30:50
  Speaker 15: four yard loss on this basically second to last carry
• 30:54
  Speaker 15: that they had a run. Blitz on and then third,
• 30:58
  Speaker 15: Tyler Geyton has three holding penalty is where he's been
• 31:01
  Speaker 15: beaten to the inside. I'm sure solari Is is well
• 31:05
  Speaker 15: aware of that.
• 31:06
  Speaker 11: But how how easy this is?
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: Really?
• 31:07
  Speaker 15: Where my question is how easy of a fix is
• 31:09
  Speaker 15: that when the holding penalties come from being beat on
• 31:12
  Speaker 15: the inside. What's the adjustment? How quick is it to say,
• 31:15
  Speaker 15: don't get beat inside? Love what you're doing, Nick, take
• 31:19
  Speaker 15: it easy, I'll talk you or listen.
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: All right, thank you, Rick appreciate that. Yeah, I mean
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: that's that's a good that's a good observation in there
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: about getting beat on the on the inside. Uh, you know,
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: that's he's just he's just got to learn, Tyler Guitton,
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: he's got to learn how to play in the NFL,
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: simple as that. And what that means is learn what
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: these these guys are trying to do to him. Learn
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: the moves. Everybody's got their own past past rush moves.
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: Learn how the officials call the games, Learn how to
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: hold everybody holds. You do it better where you don't
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: get called. I mean that it's simple. Well it's not
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: simple as that, but I mean that's that's part of it.
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: And when you draft a first round pick late in
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: the first you know, first round tackles. He's not top five,
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: not top ten. He's he's where he you know, drafted
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: where he is. He's a pre he's a project. And uh,
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: he's he's going to have to get better and learn
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: on the run and not get super frustrated. I know
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: that he did. It was a frustrating game for him. Uh,
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: they can't help at every play, but they're going to
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: leave him out there. Something he's going to have to
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: just learn on the run. This is this is what
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: it is. I mean at left tackle. There's no bringing
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: too many doga back when he's you know, healthy again
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: and doing no Guidan's the guy, and he's got to
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: keep playing and and get better and I think you will.
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: All right, let's go to Tim and Winston Salem, North Carolina.
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: Hey, Nick, how you doing good?
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: How are you?
• 32:53
  Speaker 4: I'm doing good? Good victory, not a great victory, but
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: a but victory is a victory, and they're hard to
• 33:04
  Speaker 4: come by in the NFL. I love the fact that
• 33:08
  Speaker 4: we competed in this game. I always as a coach,
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: I've always taught my kids one word that's competing. And
• 33:19
  Speaker 4: while I do not want to see anybody heart an engine.
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: I love the fact that some of our twos threes,
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: even our fours, stepped up and made contributions. I was
• 33:34
  Speaker 4: really impressed with that. And I was really impressed with
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: we had an uptick in our run defense and our
• 33:46
  Speaker 4: running game. Although I would have loved to have seen us,
• 33:50
  Speaker 4: you know, try and stick with the run a little more.
• 33:54
  Speaker 4: That's just my opinion of that. And Overshown really impressed
• 34:01
  Speaker 4: me last night. Yeah, I mean the kid was everywhere. Yeah, yeah,
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: but that's all I got there.
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, thank thank you, Tim. You know, I Overshow I
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: thought one of the key plays. You know, I write
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: the article five plays, don't forget these five. I thought
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: one tackle that he made at the three yard line
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: that I think it led to their fourth field goal.
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: It was, you know, they got to twelve at that point,
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: and it was a great play. It was he made
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: the tackle there because I think it was on one
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: Dale Robinson, who caught forty seven passes in the game
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: for like fifty yards. I mean, he caught just enough passes,
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: but yeah, he caught a pass there on the left
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: side line and Overshown made the tackle the three yard
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: line and it didn't he didn't drive, you know, drag
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: him to the one. Okay, it was Boom hit him
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: at the three down and the Giants had no choice
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: but to kickfield goal. I think if it's a little closer,
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: maybe they go for it, maybe they grabbed, you know,
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: the lead at that point. But I thought that was
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: a big, big tackle and the Cowboys just kept bending,
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: never broke. Overshowns a big reason for that. Let's go
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: take our last break here on the storyline. We'll be
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: right back. Let's take a few more calls Cowboys fans.

  Speaker 1: what's up, hy Mack?
• 36:38
  Speaker 4: How's it going?
• 36:39
  Speaker 8: Man?
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: Well, I'm tired.
• 36:41
  Speaker 16: I bet after all that traveling, I don't think it
• 36:45
  Speaker 16: has been at least somewhat positive.
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean got that w I mean that's got
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: you got that win. I mean, it's it's gonna be.
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: It's gonna be that kind of year. I really believe
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: that it's it's is. You know, I thought they were
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: gonna blow out the Giants. They probably should have, they didn't.
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: That's you know, there's gonna be some games we thought
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: that that they would win they don't, and maybe flip flip,
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: you know the other way too. That's what the beauty
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: of the NFL is. It's gonna be that kind of season,
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: I think, right.
• 37:14
  Speaker 16: And you know, not everything in life comes pretty, I guess.
• 37:18
  Speaker 16: But I love my boys, and I love when they win,
• 37:20
  Speaker 16: and I'm gonna enjoy the season regardless. I don't care
• 37:23
  Speaker 16: if we lose every damn game. Yeah, turn my TV
• 37:27
  Speaker 16: on and enjoyed being a fan. That's just me. But
• 37:30
  Speaker 16: here's a few things I got for you. So a
• 37:33
  Speaker 16: couple of player questions. Do you think maybe a light
• 37:36
  Speaker 16: bulb Moody flipped in Mazi's mind?
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: I think so.
• 37:41
  Speaker 16: On top of that, I wanted to ask you, do
• 37:43
  Speaker 16: you think Brandon Cooks might be deteriorating a little bit
• 37:46
  Speaker 16: or maybe he's just having a slow start. I just
• 37:49
  Speaker 16: I love Brandon Cooks, but I just haven't seen, you know,
• 37:52
  Speaker 16: what I expected to see so far. And my other
• 37:55
  Speaker 16: question is what do you think about the opening script
• 37:58
  Speaker 16: and the closing play call because personally, I haven't been
• 38:01
  Speaker 16: a fan. But it's hard for me to gauge. I'm not,
• 38:03
  Speaker 16: by any means a coach. I'm sitting looking at my
• 38:06
  Speaker 16: TV saying.
• 38:08
  Speaker 11: I wish we do this, I wish we'd do that.
• 38:09
  Speaker 16: But you know, at the end of the day, I'm
• 38:11
  Speaker 16: just a fan on the count. So I want to
• 38:14
  Speaker 16: hear your perspective. And I wasn't a fan of the
• 38:17
  Speaker 16: conservative play calls. At the end, you might have been
• 38:21
  Speaker 16: a fan of it because it wasn't necessarily wrong. It's
• 38:23
  Speaker 16: just like I think, if you're paying your QB sixty
• 38:27
  Speaker 16: million dollars and I'm a fan of him getting that money,
• 38:29
  Speaker 16: I'm a boy. No me saying he doesn't deserve it.
• 38:31
  Speaker 16: I'm just saying, if you're gonna pay him that much money,
• 38:34
  Speaker 16: then I want to put the game in my QB's
• 38:36
  Speaker 16: hands to go get a first down and take a knee.
• 38:38
  Speaker 16: That's just me.
• 38:39
  Speaker 4: But I'll get off of here.
• 38:40
  Speaker 16: And thanks for taking my call.
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, not me, not me at all. We've done that.
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: We've seen that Seattle game last year, We've seen it
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: in Detroit game last year. It's not just about sixty
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: million dollars quarterback. It's the receivers and whoever's open to
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: make the catch, make the play. You know, it's about
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: forty seconds off the clock. That's what you've got to do.
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: You got to take forty second. Forty seconds is more important.
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: And because it's a risk reward, yeah yeah, pass the ball,
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: catch it, make the play, game over. Doesn't happen that
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: that way. You know, it's a tight coverage. They're not
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: gonna call p I like that. They weren't calling pass
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: interference really, so they're not gonna call it there at
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: the very end of the game. So you're not gonna
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: get the benefit of the doubt there. You've got to
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: be perfect and to make this throw, make this catch,
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: and the smart play is to run the ball and
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: try to get the first down, try to get you know,
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: and Aubrey makes the field goal, and Aubrey didn't where
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: I think McCarthy made a mistake. Call a timeout with
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: one second to go, one second on the play clock.
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: Don't don't let it run out there and then the
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: clock's running down and then they're having to try to
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: bleed the clock and then kick it with four or
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: five seconds. Just call a timeout. With one second to go.
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: Kickers don't. You're not You're not gonna like free freeze
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: your own kicker. Kickers don't. They're sitting there all day
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: long and so they can wait a few more minutes.
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: It's not a big deal. What's a big deal is
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: rush out there, rush out there, having the type the
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: climb the clock rolled down and then try to kick.
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: Just just just bleed it all the way down to
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: one call timeout and think about that. I think he
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: makes the kick. If you do that, he's calm, he's
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: under pressure. You go, he kicks the kick, They go
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: up eight. Even if you don't, you would have saved
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: five more seconds. And I know that you don't think
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: that's a big deal, but imagine the difference between twenty
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: eight seconds and twenty three seconds with the team has
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: no timeouts. I mean, personally, I would just do that.
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: I don't know why they didn't. They didn't just just
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: bleed the clock to one second, call timeout and then
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: then kick the field goal. But that's the only thing.
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: I mean. I had no problem with the way they
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: ran the ball and ran that clock out. Thought they
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: did a nice job of, you know, taking about two
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: and a half minutes off. All right, let's go. Oh,
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: we got a couple more calls. We gotta do these quick.
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: Jason in New Jersey, Jason, what's up?
• 41:05
  Speaker 11: Yo? Nick? What's up?
• 41:06
  Speaker 8: Man?
• 41:07
  Speaker 11: Good to hear you man too. Yeah, man, thanks thanks
• 41:10
  Speaker 11: again for all that you do. Appreciate you definitely, Yeah, absolutely, man.
• 41:14
  Speaker 11: I mean, you know, some of your you know, some
• 41:17
  Speaker 11: of your feedback just makes it sound like you belong
• 41:19
  Speaker 11: on the sideline, to be honest with you, because I
• 41:23
  Speaker 11: totally agree with them. Yeah, of course, man, I I
• 41:25
  Speaker 11: completely agree with you on the uh on the clock
• 41:28
  Speaker 11: management hasn't quite been McCarthy's like strong suit like he's
• 41:31
  Speaker 11: been good at times, but it's been it's been a
• 41:34
  Speaker 11: little shaky, and I definitely agree with bleeding the clock
• 41:36
  Speaker 11: down on that. Here's this first time. I don't call
• 41:43
  Speaker 11: that much. I did call once last year. This is like, yeah,
• 41:50
  Speaker 11: this is my first time.
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: Here, here we go, here we go, here we go.
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: We needed one for the show. Anyways, they got the win.
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: We need at least a one. Here we go. All right, Sorry,
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: your question, No, you're good man.
• 42:03
  Speaker 11: You know question comment you know basically the you know,
• 42:07
  Speaker 11: the main thing, the glaring thing to me last night.
• 42:10
  Speaker 11: First of all the positives. Yes, great, I'm glad we
• 42:12
  Speaker 11: got our running game up and gone. That was good.
• 42:15
  Speaker 11: Good to see. I think, uh, you know, I think
• 42:17
  Speaker 11: Zeke's gonna be fine this year. And I was very
• 42:21
  Speaker 11: happy to see that we stopped the run.
• 42:22
  Speaker 4: That's huge.
• 42:24
  Speaker 11: Albeit it's the Giants, but just take that energy, move
• 42:27
  Speaker 11: it forward. I would love to see our guys continue
• 42:29
  Speaker 11: to do that because we're gonna need it for sure.
• 42:32
  Speaker 11: I was very concerned with the cornerbacks, Nick, I'm not
• 42:34
  Speaker 11: gonna lie to you, dude, like to like so much
• 42:38
  Speaker 11: space off the ball, like they were playing off these guys.
• 42:42
  Speaker 11: They made neighbors and the rest of those guys look
• 42:44
  Speaker 11: like like three time pros. Like it was crazy. I
• 42:50
  Speaker 11: like every time Daniel Jones released the ball, I felt
• 42:53
  Speaker 11: as though he was going to make a play and
• 42:55
  Speaker 11: he did. You know, he got a lot of yards
• 42:59
  Speaker 11: and that's what they got. And I get it. You know,
• 43:01
  Speaker 11: you got to give him something where we take away
• 43:04
  Speaker 11: to run. They got to have the you know, they
• 43:05
  Speaker 11: have to have the pat pass. I think last night
• 43:08
  Speaker 11: I was missing to Ron Bland. And I don't know
• 43:11
  Speaker 11: if that is the case or not, because last year
• 43:14
  Speaker 11: in Quinn's system. Even when we didn't have digs, we
• 43:17
  Speaker 11: were still doing great. So I don't know if that's
• 43:20
  Speaker 11: a Zimmer system thing or if that's a we really
• 43:23
  Speaker 11: need bland back, but that was the biggest thing that
• 43:27
  Speaker 11: really stuck out to me, Like every time Daniel Jones
• 43:29
  Speaker 11: had time in the pocket, like any quarterback would make
• 43:32
  Speaker 11: a play, but it just seemed like every time he
• 43:34
  Speaker 11: threw the ball he made a connection. I didn't like
• 43:37
  Speaker 11: that at all.
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: You know, yeah, I appreciate the calls. Are we're going
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: to have to move on. You got it, thank you,
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: Thank you for the call. No, I hate to rush that,
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: but but we got we got to hit one more
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: caller before we got Cowboys break coming up here in
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: a few seconds. I'll say this. It was Ben, but
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: don't break. I mean I'm not I'm not worried. I mean,
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: you can't be over worried about a team that that
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: never scored a touchdown. You know, like you said, he
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: made a lot of plays. He made some plays. They
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: they they stopped the run. You got to do that.
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: They gave up, are they? They pretty much eliminated the
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: big plays. I mean, Booth fell down on a double
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: move and and then Neighbors got deep for you know,
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: early in the game. They really didn't do that again
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: as far as deep balls.
• 44:24
  Speaker 11: Uh.
• 44:24

  Speaker 1: They're like, I mean, he can't he can't handle it.
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: He can't, he can't do they can't stay on his feet.
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: And so that's that's pretty much what happened there. And yeah,
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: the quarnerbacks were you know, it was it was tough.
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: And they're gonna face better quarterbacks than Daniel Jones. We
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: know that they'll face better receivers than Elie Neighbors, even
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: though he is really really damn good. I mean, that's
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: that's a that's a great player.
• 44:46
  Speaker 16: Uh.
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: And there's no other college that that that is the
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: best you know that that could be receiver you I mean,
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: are you are you serious? I mean, they they have
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: to the two best, you know, two of the best
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: right now, uh, with with tase and and Jefferson there
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: and then of course Neighbors, Wow, I mean and then
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: that they've had Beckham and Landry you know in the
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: previous decades. So uh, that's that's where the that's where
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: the receivers come from. It seems like and Oklahoma. Sorry, CD,
• 45:14

• 45:29
  Speaker 17: like you always say, we got to live in the
• 45:30
  Speaker 17: moment and enjoy the ride.
• 45:32
  Speaker 4: We won the game.
• 45:33
  Speaker 17: People are all down and out about our about our
• 45:35
  Speaker 17: offensive linemans and our run games. So I know I
• 45:38
  Speaker 17: talked about about the run game.
• 45:41
  Speaker 8: It was enough.
• 45:42
  Speaker 17: It wasn't it was enough.
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: It wasn't enough. It was enough, but it needs to
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: be better. There's no doubt about it. They've got to
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: run the ball better than that.
• 45:50
  Speaker 4: I agree.
• 45:50
  Speaker 17: I've been saying it for the last six weeks or
• 45:52
  Speaker 17: so when I talked to you. But other than that, man,
• 45:55
  Speaker 17: enjoy the ride.
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: A good night, right, yeah, definitely, yeah, yeah, a couple
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: hours sleep. But he got another question? Is that it.
• 46:07
  Speaker 17: The same question I got every time? Do you think
• 46:09
  Speaker 17: we're gonna do anything with our running back position?
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: Okay? Thank you? You know they they said it was
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: short week, wasn't It wasn't the time to bring up
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook. It's not a short week next week. I mean,
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: it's it's it would be it would make sense to
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: do that. I you know, I would. I would like
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: to see it. I don't know exactly how the dynamic
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: would be. I'm Rico did a nice job. Everyone did
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: did Okay.
• 46:36
  Speaker 12: You know.
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: They've they've found something in Lipkey. They they found something.
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: I got to give it up to Nick Harris. He's
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: been on the Lipkey train, uh since he got here,
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: and he's he's something. You know, I think he's I
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: think he's Kyle used Check from the from the forty
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: nine ers, a tight end slash fullback, h back, but
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: he runs the ball better. And you know, don't forget
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: if he led the team in special teams tackles with
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: two that that was impressive, just just his overall game.
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: So they've got something there. Deuce, you know that. I
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: think Cook probably comes up for Deuce or Zeke. I mean,
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: you don't how many backup I mean, how many veteran
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: running backs do you need that aren't gonna play special teams?
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: So I don't know if you need that that. I mean,
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: I still think Deuce needs to return kickoffs. I'm not
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: I'm not a fan of the one Nie Thomas back there.
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: But of course last week they just boomed it out
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: of the end zone. But that's gonna change. As the
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: season goes on, the weather will change. You'll see more
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: kickoff returns. So that's gonna you can't just you can't
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: just say, oh, kick it out of the end zone.
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: You get to some of these games swirling wins, they're
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: not gonna be able to kick it as far out there.
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: So it's gonna I think the kickoff rule is still
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: to be determined. It's still going to be something to
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: watch and Turpin maybe Deuce, juanier Tho, those guys are
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: gonna get a lot more returns. So all right, great show, guys,
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: twelve twelve callers. I know you guys had a lot
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: to say. You know, it was it was a win.

• 48:04
