The following is a production of dallascowboys.com and the dallascowboys football club how about them cowbo Cowboys this is Media match a round table of cowboys insiders dropping wisdom and offering sizzling Tes on the current state of your Dallas Cowboys now your host NE e scrubs all right baby Happy New Year

Media Mash coming back at your cowboy insiders information all of stuff happening today we got jacqu Taylor here got Nick Harris here hey there’s Clarence Hill in the house I’m new he Scruggs so locker room jumping today first off though there’s a guy I follow on Instagram looks like you uh oh that’s

Not good no it’s good because I love his Instagram dude is uh calls himself Mr make it happen Okay and Mr Make It Happen comes up with the best unbelievable recipes man this D Cooks up stuff and and and hey now it’s your turn to make it happen telling you you look

Like Mr Make It Happen man noted noted that’s funny that’s funny telling you man just like I saw I got the cookbook for for my birthday like I thought you I thought you were about to like spin this into a joke cuz I have a friend that

Calls me Mr make it happen I was like how do you know this person I was like I was trying to put the two two together in my head Mr make that’s good you don’t need to know you don’t need to know nobody speaking of Mr make it happened I

Was in the locker room a little bit earlier um had to Jet out early what else did you glean from today’s locker room sessions Cowboys getting ready to face the uh Washington commanders yeah I would say one of the biggest things for me was Tony Pard kind of talking about

His season you know you only got one game left in the year and he’s he’s starting to look into that reflecting mode I mean you look up 17 games in 935 yards I don’t think that’s a production anybody would have wanted out of Tony Pard going into the year and he was he

Was pretty self- admittedly saying the same thing about himself saying uh you know this is not the year I anticipated but you know there’s still an opportunity in front of us in the in the playoffs and still an opportunity in front of the uh in front of him for the

Playoffs as well so I would say that’s probably the biggest saying he was self-critical um and he’s always been good about being able to kind of look himself in the mirror and realize those problems and um he’s taken it upon himself he’s taken a lot of that a lot

Of that brunt in the running game CL you had asked him several pointed questions too when I was there yeah I mean because that that’s the thing you know because you look at the numbers because the fact that he has 935 yards and really 65 away from a th surprising because it looked

Like he had just watching the games he got like 6 700 you know what I’m saying you don’t really think he is that close even to a thousand not what it used to be close to what it used to be I know that but I just said that anyway I was

Just emphasizing the point but he’s averaging four yards a carry I mean we used to kick Zeke’s book the last three years cuz he wasn’t averaging four yards a carry the difference is Pard has averaged five or more you know when he was hiding when he was a backup

He was a five yards and he had those long touchdown runs he only has 100 yard game it’s funny because I looked it up yesterday it came against the Cardinals with like they got be by double digit points you know he has 120 something yards against is the Cardinals that’s

His only 100 yard game that’s like how do you get 100 yards in that game yeah you know what I’m saying with three offensive lineman out with three offensive lineman out all but that’s his been his best game of the season is probably the most embarrassing game for

The team but other than that it’s been 60 70 50 you know there been some some Clunkers in there uh and so the difference is the big play has not been you look even he just don’t look as explosive he says he he’s physically fine uh which I wanted to follow up

Because he said I’m physically fine I don’t know if you heard today yes are you mentally fine what’s going on because cuz he he emphasized them physically fine them health is good talked about prayer and talking to family to get through so that that leaves some other things there the other

Questions to ask but what’s the other question about and we and came it’s come up a lot lately the last two days because I’ll talk about D and cook and whatever well they ran a lot outside Zone last year they’re not running it nearly as much this year so are they

Really playing to his strength yeah that’s a good point they’re 28th in outside Zone usage this season and when you think back to what Tony Pard really did well in the Run game these last two seasons it was getting out in space and getting out one-onone with a DB you know

So I feel you you know two things we we talk about he’s better on outside let’s go back to Miami why you go outside okay that’s one play but I’m saying it’s a mentality you looking you taking a micro look and I’m looking for a micro look I know but that micro look

MC go hand in hand he doesn’t trust his speed there there’s no question that that doesn’t that doesn’t speak to philos or maybe it does philosophically why the team doesn’t doesn’t use he don’t trust the speed I mean and he’s not and and when he’s got an open field

We have not seen that gear okay we have not seen that gear and I’m glad you brought D cook because you know the Cowboys obviously are looking to upgrade for the playoffs and they worked out L Collins there’s some contract snafu with his departure from the Bengals that is

Held that up nothing else you know there’s some language in his his Bengals contract they’re working out that should happen tomorrow the time in the practice squad look at the Damen Wilson upgrade the linebacker position you know there’s some things that that could happen tomorrow as well but they’re also and I

Wrote the deal they need to be looking at the running back position because of all the things we not just about polish the running game has not been there they cannot finish games they cannot uh run when they want to they are looking at dvin Cook not saying they going to sign

Him not saying he’s the back he used to be but but you should kick the tires on dvin cook a four-time pro bowler he don’t have to be the back he just got to be better than what you got exactly so they are they are is something they’re looking at for sure

So I’ll ask you guys the question because I asked it on the players L yesterday dvin cook would you do it yes or no CH I mean I don’t know cuz I ain’t no Scout and what I’m saying is everybody says he doesn’t fit the schin people who you

Respect say he doesn’t fit the scheme and so and I haven’t talked to anybody yet just but I mean I don’t know I I’ve been on the no train I’m going to stick on the no train uh what he’s best utilized with is not what this offense

Best runs in my opinion um and what he’s put together this year I know it was with the Jets it’s a tough offense to succeed in but if you’re looking for a rental to boost your running game at this point you’re not going to find it

And I don’t I don’t believe it’s that may be the question I’m used to bees don’t make no honey he used to be a really good be okay but what no what no Market when he was okay okay let’s I mean I I love all of you you guys scheme

And all this what scheme does deuce fit yeah not this one okay I’m just I’m just what scheme does dude fit and he was out there playing last week okay now all of a sudden he’s on injur reserve what scheme does dude fit DAV cook is a

Proven back he had 1173 yard 4.4 yards he’s had the last four years I’m talking about last year every he’s not coming off injury he had eight touchdowns maybe that it was a mess in New York to sit up here and say he is not better than what

You have and we shouldn’t kick the tires on him based on scheme fit come on we can’t do that you still caught up in TJ what I’m not caught up in anything I’m caught up in the man is a for is a proven back you don’t have you don’t

Have proven backs I get where you’re coming from we he offse shoulders we spoke a little bit about they do the legs and for me five yards in this this offense has got an issue with the running back position yall hear you you saw desperate you giving the ball the hunter liy can

You give it to D dvin cook I mean from that’s all I’m thinking about here you you inside the five go give the ball to dvin cook I’d like to see what they could do if that’s the case had to get a different number but hey I’d like to see

Let’s entertain that possibility for a second it I I don’t think you could get him on a rental I don’t think you can just sign him to a oneye finish you talk about why he left New York he he left New York because he because he wants to

Get on a chance for he left New York this yeah to get on a chance for a playoff team that’s all he wants if he’s dvin cook and there’s going to be other suitors out there for him there weren’t other suit was free the Ravens have talked about possibly adding himed about

My point is ain’t nobody G to give him no multi-year deal just saying if if it becomes that type of discussion okay see Ste stepen Jones stop I need you to stop I need you woring about stuff that’s not on the table you worried about stuff that’s not on the table

Talking about can he help you yes now it takes two to tango both sides got to agree we understand that okay it you know I’m not saying it’s a done deal just because you’re interested in make a play for him that’s a whole another conversation but should you make a play

For was the question on the table should you pick up the phone call and make the call see I would say the answer to that would be yes that’s that’s what we talking about here and and for me I would not only pick up the phone I would

Sign the player and see and so and I hear what you’re saying because I I get listen I love St love what he’s done I get tired of worrying about 2025 and 2026 decisions when you’re trying to win a championship right now yeah I I I get

Tired of that you know all that I mean you you you worrying about this stuff down the road with all we know the Cap’s going up you’re trying to win now the goal is not to balance the checkbook the goal is to win a title out of 28 years I

I do know balancing the checkbook is going to be a big Tas this checkbook been balancing like a mofo for a long time it’s the richest franchise in all of sports okay if they take a little L they okay it’s the same ain’t nobody the light same cutting off the lights is not

Cutting off at AT&T ST it’s not a check it’s a credit card it’s a black card you titanium C dropping the lights are not cutting off atnt 37% interest but it’s all right they win the division okay I’m assuming they win the division and right

Now you’d be hosting Green Bay you got a first and four from the four giving the ball to dvin cook Rico D Tony po CD lamb on the end the round that worked that don’t work at the four that worked back Hunter licky baby it’s cheap no Hunter licky only get one

At a time first of all he he might not hold on the ball he might know he getting the ball okay so let’s do let’s I start thinking that that to me is where I look for d i I’m not looking for dvin Cook to come in here and come give

You you know 75 yards and C catch you know three passes for 12 I’m not even looking I’m just looking at hey you got the ball inside the five because they have Red Zone issues yeah and they haven’t fix them and I don’t think this group of running backs they have are

Going to fix it Dalvin cook in my opinion is just a chance I would take looking at okay hey Mike can you dial up something for for this guy in the playoffs yard and pick it back I know you talking macro and micro that’s that’s why they play against Miami was

So important it’s a mentality you know you you the one if you don’t go wide lower your shoulders get into the end zone dvin cook the last four years eight touchdowns six touchdowns 16 touchdown he 13 touchdowns on the ground he knows how to get into the end

Zone that’s what we’re talking about that’s that for me that that’s that’s how I see K go deeper where them touchdowns come from and were the Red Zone touchdowns where they touchdowns baby they touchdowns they touchdowns they I mean Tony probably had like 10 them last year next Jo trying to see how

Far they came out I’m talking about I’m trying to see how they go one two three four I’m talking about five years I ain’t talking about one year in one year okay I’m talking about fivey year history I guess I got to go do my own research I’m talking about five years

You how many how many P got this year used to be don’t make no money man exactly hey yeah Tony used to be a guy that could convert that’s what I said no he’s he’s converted from distance that’s that’s the issue he wasn’t converting short touch down from one yard line last

Year that’s what he was conver distance okay but I mean again it’s no one said he’s drawn better so he’s going to be that guy but he is a guy who has known has a knack for getting to the end zone he has a knack for being productive and he’s better than

Again they ran out Deuce last week okay that’s that’s that’s the option they have Rico’s been batt ankle injury they don’t have any more uh practice squ elevation for Malik Davis they need help in the back field so last year and it’s glad you guys brought maybe think of the

The receiver from the Colts last year who they brought in and end he helped Ty Y Hilton helped to me this is like a Ty situation that’s fair hey man we’re desperate something so so come on and you weren’t asking Ty to lead the team

But hey can you help us he made a play and make a play that’s All mein cook thing that’s the same thing you’re asking of Leo Collins K not coming to the start okay he’s coming to his insurance you know if tyron’s back flares up you know cuz we are tired of

The chuma do experiment experience experiment both of them you know what I’m talking about you know so you you you need an option there you know same thing with Damen Wilson he’s a guy that’s that’s a veteran he’s not played in the scheme but he’s a veteran linebacker it’s just an option because

There’s an issue at linebacker okay you’re plugging and and that’s you know and so this is a plug opportunity that’s all whether he had 10 one yard runs a I did my own research so he got a lot from the one and from the two three just say

I just like all the facts man that’s the facts I’m a prosecut attorney I just like all the facts the facts are he’s a proven veteran back who’s better than what you got listen to the cues you’ll be okay normally yeah normally you already yeah I’m glad I’m glad you

Acknowledge that normally we talk about the chapter a really all of that yeah see you you see how you do you see how the perception you put out there divisive oh it’s a new man new birthday man so I will look on y’all side of the coin

For a little bit here though if you look in the playoffs and you got Tony Pard Ric D’s battling his ankle injury and he has to miss a game again Deuce is already on the IR then you’re looking at Tony Pard Malik Davis because he’ll be

Able to be elevated in the playoffs and Hunter liy those are your options in the back field so I I I get where you need you you would like an extra body can I ask you a question yeah when the dudes get hurt he cared about twice the

Same I just saw him walking through looking samej same thing what it is what it is I don’t know why you’re asking me I just report the News That’s this a great time for a break right here Med man here on dallascowboys.com radio Todd thought it would be secure to

Thought he said I was in my library put a smoking jacket ony he not say that a library lighting up his cigar now he got enough paper to have a library yeah he secured the bag over the years he ain’t said nothing sing on some knac looking at my smoking jacket look

At my book collection with the pink in there listen to some soft Library listen some soft listen to some soft music in the background I do have a study I do have a library yes I do John but as I tweeted there at as I was in public library I

Tweeted was in my local library okay and then when I was in the bars Noble will put out the book so I’m out here I’m out here in the public trying to make sure my man’s work is out and I appreciate that very much and your book is also in

My library in my library yes my library sniff sniff on outside overlooking the pool we got to do a special episode from the library one day cribs cribs with newest crib 2024 I’m trying to be a different guy trying to be Chris put it on Chris don’t don’t come here I know

Chris Chris Chris did come out here wrong came out here wrong violate 2025 I’m trying to change man trying to change um Dak Prescott comes into the final week with the ability to maintain his lead as the NFL’s leading touchdown passer you got 32 touchdowns the most in

The league P’s at 31 then you got Jordan love the Packers at 30 what would the significance mean uh Clarence if he led the league in touchdown pass I I think it’ll be a significance I think he’s already proven uh enough this year you know with his touchdown interception

Ratio especially after last year I don’t I don’t I I don’t I don’t think he needs to prove anything by Leading Le it’d be cute it’d be nice you know uh you you put his whole game I think there’s no question that Dak Prescott has been the

Best quarterback in the NFC this year there’s no question about that and you know you know if over py yes over py I agree yeah he’s been the best quarterback I think there’s no no question about he’s the best quarter NFC this year what he’s had to do what he’s

Had to work with uh how he’s had to win games uh I think he’s proven that and so I I don’t think that one stat of lead the league a touchdown changes any of that you know and I’m sure he’ll finish second or third in MVP voting behind

Lamar Jackson you know and game here game there we might have be talking about a different story because his numbers compare very favorably uh in most situations better than Lamar Jackson well quarterbacking quarterbacking his quarterbacking numbers and his quarterbacking numbers and his quarter blacking numbers they all work they all

Go hand in hand and they compare very favorably Lamar Jacks Lamar Jacks is the number one defensive League they don’t give up nothing yeah I I don’t think if you’re if you’re going into the season and you’re looking at Dak supporters and you’re looking at Dak haters I don’t

Think anyone’s checking for him leading the league in touchdown passes so unfortunately I can’t sit here and say that that would move the needle as far as you know where where you look at with dax’s trajectory I he’s got to go win that’s that’s the biggest thing he’s got

To win in the playf he’s got to get that that demon off his back I think if he can get to the NFC championship at least this year then then yeah that would be Monumental I think that would be bigger than touchdown passes yeah I think that

His is about winning but Dak haters you’re not changing their mind nothing changes their mind except a Super Bowl and even then that might not change their mind because they would get the credit to somebody else so Dak haters I mean just like Dak lovers I mean but

People still have a narrative on Dak I mean I I guys he’s not accurate he’s not accurate I’m like look at his completion percent he’s not accurate look at that I mean act like if if one ball is is a away then he that’s exam he he’s 18 or

22 but he haded one ball let’s show he’s not accurate okay you know like it’s people have this mindset that he’s not accurate that he’s still turnover prone which he has not been so it’s interesting you say that talking about the accuracy I’m sitting in the Press

Box at the game Saturday and then he missed Brandon Cooks right and then he threw the pick and the person next to me says $60 million a year for that that that was telling me but then he made the third down throw to Brandon and then the

Next play there was nothing said that very person didn’t say the 92 yeah and so and and so it what make you laugh he make a crowd the same thing he did on the interception was the same thing he did on the touchdown he made somebody

Miss and he tried to make a play to CD you know obviously he was a low late throw to the sideline that got picked the touchdown perfect throw down the field defense back fell down 92 yard touchdown see it was the same process you know he made a play with his feet

And and and he’s had and people don’t understand the offens line has been solid but Dak has had to do a lot with his feet in the pocket to create plays you know that’s what people talk about somebody asked me other day should CD be

Um MVP or over Dak and I’m saying look I love CD and I love Tyreek Hill uh and their numbers are great but there’s a category for them it’s called offensive player of the year okay but because what the quarterback has to do to make a play it’s why it’s the most important

Position in the league unless you’re going for 25 200 yards you you you’re not more important than what the quarterback has to do to make this team win game in game out play in and play out all right so Pro Bowl is going to be

Uh coming out today so um who are the guys you think going to make it for the Cowboys talk to you John got your quarterback you got CD uh who else you got you got Zach he’s a reputation guy now he’s still good but he not what he was it’s three three you

Got Micah four four you got uh I think Bland get there five you got I think tanks got a shot yeah tanks got a shot and I think I think Tyler Smith and and I’m sorry I neglected Tyler so yeah and and and and and Tyler Smith May CU when

He’s been on the field he’s been last out except except at Detroit game Smith Brothers Mak seven and we got for got Brandon Aubrey oh Brandon auy yeah that is yeah you so uh Trent Sig brand AR so that that’s eight Trent Sig was third in the like

The first go around or whatever whenever they checked the numbers he was like third in the checkpoint so he might have a shot so potential eight Pro bowls for the Cowboys that’s about right with a chance to finish with a 12 and five record East you number two seed in the

In the East if you take care of business you win 12 games those are the rewards that they get reached you didn’t win them 12 by yourself so I mean somebody had to be putting in work to win those 12 uh let’s go back to Saturday night it was a good night first

Off think you were born but I was there the last time they put a head coach in the Ring of Honor you were probably there too when Tom Landry went in for the Cowboys oh no I probably wasn’t sorry I’m so sorry okay Clarence were

You there no I was not there okay I was there that day so I was working at Austin we came up for the game so uh Jimmy Johnson going into the Ring of Honor your thoughts on the ceremony Nick yeah it was super cool I think the

Halftime speech kind of ignited a little bit of a fire too everybody in the in the St Stadium I didn’t expect that type of fire from Jimmy come coming into halftime and having that kind of speech so that was a really cool moment obviously like I wasn’t there for those

Days so y’all would be able to speak a lot more on the impact of that moment but uh it was pretty cool just kind of seeing that full circle and seeing the press conference beforehand with Jerry and Jimmy and Jerry he just kept saying it’s the right thing to do it’s the

Right thing to do and um he’s right at the end of the day it kind of felt right you know I think it put a bow in the 90s and you finally were able to bury the 90s because you know obviously it’s been gone a long time but the family wasn’t

Together cuz Jimmy wasn’t here and and you you finally put the family back together you can put put that to bed and you know Jimmy’s speech was awesome you know the way ended the speech was so classic and you it’s like it’s like you know you go to those concerts you know

The words to the song and you sing it anyway you know you have you know those those great words everybody knew what was coming they were ready for it and they and he did he said the words and you’ve heard it aund times but it felt

So good here it again and you it just and you enjoyed every minute of it and and it was just Classic photos just tweeted EMT and Michael and Jimmy going crazy and mouth Michael’s mouth wide open and Troy sto just looking at them you know just like that’s the 90s you

Know that’s that’s that’s that’s what it was and that that’s why it was so great cuz they kind of fit hand to hand but but yeah that that that was a classic moment that everybody enjoyed I was not there for Landry though okay by myself okay yeah you by

Yourself that’s all right I had to look it up just to make sure okay what year was it I’m curious when 93 93 it was it was another moment where Jerry and I asked tried to ask Jerry in the press conference about you making things right fans were mad fans are mad about

Landry and and he had to convince talk to Tom about him finally coming in and they was mad at him about Jimmy and he GS it right and I guess we can thank Netflix or Charlotte and Troy but yes all of that we saw Netflix every this is

This this will be in the show oh they’re filming a show been around all year long they’s been filming you know uh yeah this this is it’s a very interesting to content it’s all about content it’s always it’s been by content what it’s all about this particular team has always been by

Content and so the premise of the Netflix shows is is is a bunch of it is Jerry so this is this is good because Jerry looks like a hero yeah he looks like a hero like one thing I thought before the game when they was talking and you know and

Jerry’s great for these mumbls he’s great for being introspective and admitting fault and because it’s okay now I can say I’m wrong I can say it was my fault that I wasn’t h humble enough to keep this thing together neither one Jerry’s the one but yeah but Jimmy’s

Not mentioning that it’s Jerry the one who’s one who saying I wasn’t home I didn’t do what Jimmy has no regrets okay yeah has no regrets we won we won two that’s how that’s how it was and the players like I said what I brought up

Cuz it cuz they’re players and and it’s kind of Bittersweet for some because it shouldn’t have happened it shouldn’t have come you want to and you know you talked to Darren Woodson and those guys and they really thought had a chance to win three four straight and really done

Something special and been great in this New England Dynasty been you know one of the greatest dynasties ever they’re they they really still have an empty feeling on what could have been if you Knuckleheads at the top would have kept it together and you kept your eego together because they could have been

Really special and that’s still hurtful for them and and and that’s and and and 28 years later Jerry acknowledges I think I messed up something cuz I ain’t want it ain’t it Ain 500 coaches now 500 coaches can’t do this and and the Cowboys have not won in 28 years you

Know you think it’s easy to get back to the top but it’s not it’s not it’s hard to win this was the uh the biggest quote that I took away from the press conference beforehand this was uh he was they were both asked kind of about do

You do you wonder what could have been it was you that asked the question it was you that asked the question about like what could have been if you if y all stayed together and this is the quote that stood out to me from Jimmy says sometimes you lose sight of what

You can do because of what you already have done so you know you look back on two Super Bowls at at that point and um you know you have both of those birds in hand not realizing that there’s a lot of more birds that you could have had in

The end and you look at what New England has accomplished in the last 15 years under Brady and bich and you kind of compare those two things and you know you wonder um what’s very funny is listening to Jimmy come out and say we never had argument both you go sit then

You sit up there you there people bringing up videos after after the whole we’re all looking at each other like it broke up over our it hurt feelings I mean that’s what happened in Orlando you know you offended Jerry and then sit there and see Edward sitting next row in

Front of me and Rick goin’s over there to the left of me and those two guys had the story and this and then at the press conference in and I walked out I was like never an issue and they just both just looked at me and they were just

Talking about it was very interesting listening to those two guys who were there and just basically like this is a lot of hoie and they’re trying to make it all look good but they were issues at there were issues at the end and we we all there were you there at the press

Literally on Sunday um Sam how once beat the Cowboys that was a long time ago and uh he was benched and uh brassette got hurt so then he’s back here in the locker room I tried to ask guys do you have to say anything does everybody understand

Everybody get what what needs to get done this week and everybody seem to say yeah we understand what to do here yeah it sounds like the biggest opponent this week is themselves and and they they’ve talked about that you know this is a game that everybody feels they should

Win it’s a 13 and a half Point favorite uh but you’re going on the road against an opponent that you see quite a bit it’s a divisional opponent and it’s supposed to be sloppy weather conditions you know this is setting up to be a game if you look at previous games in the

Past this season that they would struggle in to get out of the gates with but I think there’s a little bit different of an approach Ro I think they realize that and they see that everything’s in front of them dude when you see that you can go win a division

That you thought was kind of lost yeah I mean it shouldn’t I mean as i’ like to say they I’d have been up here Sunday getting ready for the game all of that they the motivation is there for the Cowboys um and there’s so much talk about last year for Washington how they

Beat the Cowboys in that season finale and certainly that’s a lesson of cows can not take this team for granted even though they’re out of the playoffs but this is also a different Washington team than last year last year’s team still we got Sam how we got we got Prospect for

The future we’re kind of seeing what’s going to happen you know they hadn’t given away their two best defensive pass rusters um this year is different the coach is a lame du coach he’s going to get fired they’re going to be looking for a new quarterback um Eric Ben may

Not be there they’re going to be you know there’s so much change so this is not the same motivated Washington team uh to to to to show not just beat the Cowboys but also show promise for next year is what they saw what the Cowboys

Saw last year so they but they need to hone in and take care of business because certainly they would love nothing to ruin the Cowboys moment and ruin the Cowboys opportunity but I don’t think the the challenge is the same Sam how’s gotten beaten up a lot

This is a bad offensive line I think the confidence that I saw him once have at Chapel Hill and even last year is now gone it’s like a light that’s been blowing out it’s bad uh um I look at someone like Eric benemy and I think that Ron Rivera knows he’s

Going to get fired I don’t think they’ve tried to put any kind of POS put the eny in any kind of position where he could potentially even take over I think This ship’s going down Ron M take get all of you with it yeah everybody getting cleaned out right everybody’s getting

Cleaned out here so I just think this is this is a bad situation and I think everybody understands this is this is it this this is C been making calls this week hey you got spot for me dog do you look at that though and it’s kind of it

Was kind of brought up in the locker room this team has nothing to lose we’re talking about Washington going into a game like this they can go play spoiler and then you know if they don’t succeed no one was expecting them or checking for them anyway that only that only

Works really if you mess up and allow them to hang around right if you commit turnover if you have Sloppy play and they decide hey I guess we can win this thing and and and and that only works if they’re still a team okay and and the

Problem is is that still a team over there that collectively rise up and play spoiler yeah definitely not you know and that’s what I’m talking about there’s too much going on there for you for them all rise up together be on the same page and say let’s do this but yeah it’s it’s

A On Any Given something anything can happen we we no one saw what happened last year for Cowboys te ones of the playoffs with a 12-5 record and gosh they could have been 13 and three last year 13 and four yeah 13 and four last

Blitz by Blitz by you know and then so you know no momentum no excitement going to the playoffs that’s when the kicker win ay yeah started that week and and then it continue the playoff so you don’t want any negative juju going to the playoff yeah Brandon Aubrey’s got one big hurdle to

Clear F that’s so crazy cuz you did not see it coming from Myer last he was having a great year not a Brandon AR year he was having a great he had a couple of I mean and then it just went the the yippers the yippers have you you

Covered a game up there yet I have not okay so so what you’re going to find out the food is awful I’ve heard a lot of things about this trip number one um the food is bring your own food okay the night before sh seriously the night

Before go I I did Whole Foods and brought brought my own food so that’s number one bring your okay um number two this is a this is a home game m i mean we you’ve gone places and you’ve seen the cowboy cow I mean especially this

Week you you check the Uber line they just jumping out Ubers in in blue and white jerseys and then they go up there and party and tailgate with the Washington F I mean it’s it’s it’s it’s unlike anything you don’t see this at the Philly game the Giant game where you

Know they understand Cowboy fan is here and they going to cheer for their team and we have to accept it that’s how it kind of felt to Sofi for the Chargers game this this past we or I I just do a weather day you you scared me right now

It’s not supposed to be any weather on Sunday okay so the precipitation gone away that’s good it’s going to rain all day Saturday but Sunday is supposed to be 42 and 33 with no I don’t see any weather tell you what that grass field with that Stadium crew who knows if

It’ll get cleared up by ja and I’ll be thinking about you out there enjoy it so good luck to you just don’t wor you read about them so they’re going to have rain on the rain on the field you know just make sure they got the right you know what’s funny let’s go

Back to the um right let’s go back to the the snaf with the stadium seing and I I really found out what happened remember the the the the heated bench when it looked like the Cowboys were trying to show up the Redskins show up Washington with the uh commanders with

With the uh Cowboys uh logo on the bench they not ordered the logo they ordered benches cuz they was to be bench The company took it on themselves to put the logo on there because they thought that’s what the Cowboys wanted the Cowboys were not trying to show them up

With a bring their own bench loc that’s good business baby you know they were trying to do you know so they they’ve used that company before so yeah they were over so they won’t be logo on the bench they should C they will have their

Own they won’t be but yeah me come with that hey we going to you know take it to the next level and put you it just it just was not a good look on the road uh then CU then Washington came we have to bring on benches and all this other

Stuff stuff out of nothing um Dan Quin mentioned about was asked about head coaching jobs uh last year did the rounds they’ll be jobs year before jobs will be open again does he jump on something this time around yeah I guess you just look at the jobs that

Open up right and and you you compare those to jobs that have opened up in the past you know it’s clear that he’s looking for a situation that he wants very specifically what does that situation look like who knows I I mean you could have looked at the Seattle job

A couple of years ago and maybe seen that there could be an opening in a couple of years if things go right for or I guess wrong for Pete Carroll but things have gone right for them they’ve drafted well Gino Smith has played well so that’s that’s probably not a job

That’s realistic over the course of the next three two to three years so I guess he just looks at opportunity and only Dan Quinn knows what that opportunity looks like and we’ll see if he jumps on it can I say one thing sure sure Dan Quin didn’t turn no jobs down

In the last couple years did he he pulled out of I he didn’t Chicago no no no he was not the only thing I heard and um it was that Denver that the GM and Denver wanted them but then lway and the president said no and then they hired uh your man

Hacket that was as closes I heard about right so I mean so the notion that he could have had a job and he chose the they with the Cowboys I think we made more what than what it was okay cuz there there’s not been no job he said I

Don’t want that job I mean certainly I don’t know if he wanted to go to Arizona but I don’t think that was jobs that were right there where he just turned down and so we’ve been going through this dance the last couple of years and certainly he’s worthy we know what he’s

Done but some of people like they like like the two coordinators from Philadelphia you know uh who who went to Arizona and Indianapolis they people like the young guys you know three jobs open yeah Raiders Raiders think he fit well do they want Antonio Piers okay uh

Carolina he that he’s taking that over what he had last year what are we doing well yeah why would you take that I mean Chargers that’s the job of course that could be the job but but there a lot of people that been linked to that job New

England they ain’t no quarterback I don’t want to go nowhere where they ain’t got no quarterback Chicago they will be dra Chicago’s keeping their Guy They’ll be dra Chicago and keep okay whatever I’m just saying it’s been out the head EA fluk I thought you been quarterback no eil flu I’m talking about

Keeping e FL e flu so so yeah so uh and you got and did you bring up Washington oh yeah them yeah Washington they got no quarterback they have a quarterback Washington and New England will have quarterbacks yes they’ll be dra yeah that’s still a quarterback yeah that’s

Quarterback you know I mean yeah you know CU you know CU there are people like okay cuz I think the Domino is bich the thing is bich is going to be out the playoffs right yes so first that should be the Domino if he’s going somewhere it should happen soon quickly

Yeah should be talking this week I think yes you know so and where does he go because it has to be a trade because I think he’s under I don’t think he’s out of contract so it hasal right right so so yeah what you giving up for B so

Right now we would assume Dan is back this it you know it’s too early to say you media people or something else we’ve all learned from you the oldest dude here right can we just get to the playoffs can we see they WI a playoff game can they make a super

One can they do something longest 10 year Cowboy beat that’s who who taught us we got to talk about that right now Nick so it be because it was brought up at the press conference with the coordinator by who who brought it up one of them media people I wasn’t here

Partying was part I was at a game it was Calvin it was of course it was Calvin why what he ask what was the exact question are you looking at are you looking at he said he he he phrased how do you how do you juggle the buzz around

Your name when coaching opportunities get thrown out there how do you juggle that with the season and he’s like I don’t juggle it when those opportunities come over the offseason you know those are like two or three day deals I look at it and I I I go forward with it at

That point but right now like I’m focused on this playoff run and you know he gave the pr yeah he and Kell Mo handle that business last year wonder if Kell will give any interviews hey they make a Deep Run he’ll have a shot please apparently Carolina was mentioned

About his name somebody got to work in Carolina somebody gonna take that money in that job and work for that dude Cliff Kingsbury Steve Brooks that’s what he need to do just going to samire he didn’t want to say sorry for throwing the drink from 20 feet away

Couple on somebody he still imag imagine if that was imagine is holding that strong I’m not apologizing I want to know what did they say they said something it doesn’t say it doesn’t matter but I still want imagine imagine that was Jerry Jones they be leading headline news it wouldn’t just be know
