Speaker 1 (00:00):
Texas.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
Of course, back on the practice field this morning and
then get ready for the trip to ann Arbor. One
of the factors in the long Worne passing attack could
be Matthew Golden, the transfer receiver from Houston, New had
a big day, including a pair of touchdown grabs as well.
And Golden, of course, if you remember, and I mentioned
(00:21):
this in the first hour of the program, actually played
high school football with Jaydon Blue at Clyde Kane, one
of the newer schools in the Greater Houston area, and
he was asked about his relationship with Jaden and what
he feels that Blue brings to the offense.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
I mean, that's my day when you know, we went
to high school together. You know, I've been doing Blue
my whole life. So, I mean, he a different running back.
You know, he could play in the backfield, he could
play he could play a receiver too, you know, just
having it back like that, that's so.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
I mean, he's reliable.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
I mean, I mean, it ain't nothing Blue can't do.
So just having him, you know, I mean, it makes
everything easier for the offense.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
No question about it.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Now one more time and then we're probably clear of
the deck on this deal that no look past thing. Uh,
because we hadn't heard from him from the receiver on
that about how you do that. And you'll also hear
our friend Kirk Bowles now with the Houston Chronicle with
a follow up on this on the no look pass
coming from quinn Ewers, I.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Wasn't expecting to bother if you want to be honest,
but I mean, Quinn let it go, and I just
know I had to get an ins on at the
end of the day, see you.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Oh yeah, yeah, for sure.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Okay, all right, now, this was another question was ask
you know, with all these outstanding receivers and he got
quinn Ewers, uh, and a guy like Jay Blue catch
the ball coming out of the backfield as well, are there,
to use the old phrase, enough footballs to go around?
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (01:46):
I feel like it is for sure. You know, we
got a good ro testion going. You know, everybody got
a touch the field at the end of the day.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
I mean that's just how that.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
This is how I got to be. So, I mean
I appreciate each and every guy in our room. You know,
they come in and work east and every day. So
I mean that's it.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Yeah, all right, that's that's one way to look it.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Now he's finally had a chance to immerse himself in
sarks offense. So how about his thoughts on Steve Sarksian's
offense that he now seems to be a central figure in.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
I mean, he could create anything he wants. I mean
he looking at the defense and just calling any play
he thinks. I mean, I feel like we can execute
any play he calls. So just just being out there,
I mean, like I said, to just go back to
having fun and just just playing for By.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
At the end of the day.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Okay, all right, So if it's that, then how truly
capable is this offense? In other words, what are they
capable of scoring on a regular basis?
Speaker 1 (02:40):
I feel like we was gonna get sixty.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
I thought it was gonna end upcoring again, but you know,
it happened.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
It is what it is.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
But uh, I mean, I love his team. You know,
I appreciate Easton every gone on his team. And I mean,
at the end of the day, we got a good brotherhood.
And that's off the field too. I mean, I feel
like that's what's gonna take us further what we expect
to go.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Okay, right there, you are.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
That's from Matthew Golden, who could wind up being a
very important part of this offensive attack for Texas this season,
and a little more from Anthony Hill as well. Just
first of all, in talking about you know, we've been
talking about the linebacking corps, but what about the defensive line.
(03:29):
His thoughts on how the defensive line played last Saturday.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
They did a great job to minute job. Of course,
we did a great job stop in a run, and
I feel like it starts up front and then it
ends with us. So but I they did a great
job with that handling that.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
And there's another guy.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
You got a chance to see two defensive linemen off
that back to back state championship Duncanville team play Alex
January in the interior defensive front and then Colin Simmons
coming off the edge. What did Anthony ll think of
Colin Simmons play his performance in the game.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Much talent do you see in there?
Speaker 4 (04:01):
Though? Uh, He's he's gonna be a starter, That's all
I can say. I mean, he kind of reminds me
of myself a lot, so I kind of understand like
what he.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Goes through and all that.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
So it's just it's really good to see him out
there and playing fast.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
And then finally, yeah, now ies turning toward Ann Arbor
and getting ready for Michigan.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
We know what type of game that's gonna be. Is
gonna be physical. We just can't wait to get out.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
There and go play.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Yeah, it's as simple as that. You might say, you know,
it would be uh, it would be a disservice to
either side if you said, you know, you just going
to you know, this is how it is, and you
don't sound like it has meaning, because it does have meaning,
even though it's a non conference game, and even though
(04:44):
we've talked about the fact that it can be a
game that really catapults a team to a great season,
but if you lose it, it also isn't a tragedy in
terms of completely wiping out your hopes to make the
college football Playoff, which of course is a big goal
(05:06):
for virtually every team in college football, and that is
to get into that brand new, new fangled twelve team
expanded playoff in college football. So it's going to be
important to do that. On the tax line this afternoon,
somebody reminded us, you know, when we had Greg Tepper
on the last hour about Maverick McIvor, the quarterback Forrabling
(05:29):
Christian who transferred to Texas Tag. He's from San Angelo
Central's TEP reminded us, and of course they we were
reminded that Maverick is the son of former Loggorn quarterback
Rick McIvor and came out of sant Angelo Central and
now is at ACU. And then somebody said by November
(05:50):
two and seven, oh two and seven, By November, the
two and seven Cowboys will be covered by He said,
Dave Stockton and Dan Jiggetts. Now all right, let me
let me clean up some of it. It was, first
(06:14):
of all, it would be Dick Stockton. Dave Stockton was
a PGA touring pro. He won the nineteen sixty nine
PGA Championship. In fact, Dave Stockton did. He was an
outstanding golfer. I think he's in the Hall of Fame anyway,
so I think he be in. Dick Stockton and Dan
Jiggetts used to be an analyst for CBS back in
the day. He hasn't been in some time, and wasn't
(06:38):
wasn't top of the lie. But the point is made.
He's expecting the Cowboys to be two and seven by then.
As down as you are on the Cowboys, as down
as you are on them, you don't think they're going
to be two and seven, right.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Hmmm, two and seven? Let's see. I mean, you know,
we haven't done this, We have not done this.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
We might as well go head and just do it
right now, gamey game, Yeah, we're gonna We're just gonna
go ahead and do this.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
We're gonna go game by game for both the Cowboys
and the Texas.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Okay, so I'm gonna I'm gonna throw it at you
and then you just tell me, all right, I got
it pulling up right here, Cowboys, and and.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
That is funny. All right. Uh, let's go to their schedule.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Here's the schedule, okay, all right, So this Sunday, you
do not expect them to have any difficulty with the
Cleveland Browns?
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Is that correct? I don't think so.
Speaker 5 (07:43):
But again, I mean, they still have Miles Garrett, they
still have a fantastic defense. But again, offensively, you know,
I just don't know, Nick Chubb. I think they win
this game, so I would think the Cowboys. Okay, all right,
all right, so we got that, all right? Next week
home game New Orleans should have win that two and zero. Okay,
(08:06):
Saints should be awful this year. Okay, then Baltimore Ravens.
That's a home game Ravens. Okay, then real quickly, let
me see what is you know, Lamar Jackson want to
know against the Cowboys in their uh in his career.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Okay, h Thursday night game at the Metalwlands against the Giants.
Speaker 5 (08:34):
Should have win that just because it's the Giants. And
if Daniel Jones still the quarterback, and unless you don't know,
Phil Simms comes back reincarnated, then I think that'll be
Cowboys victory.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Okay, road game at Pittsburgh on a Sunday night the
next week.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Should win that.
Speaker 5 (08:51):
But again, a night game in Pittsburgh Tomlins defense, you know,
maybe they'll get a little frisky with Justin Fields at
quarterback or Russell Willison whatever. I would lean Cowboys, But
you know that could change after we see a month
of Pittsburgh football. See what this team is a lot
of people would think they're gonna be really bad this year,
but I don't know. Mike Tomlin still finds a way.
I mean, he made to the playoffs last season in
their quarterbacksual Wet Trubisky and Kenny Pickett's.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Yep, yep. All right, So for now you're still going Cowboys.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Yeah, okay, all right, all right, Now it's gonna get ugly, alright,
real ugly. Home game on Texash you weekend Lions, Lions, Okay, yeah,
I think Detroit after how they lost to Dallas last season.
Speaker 5 (09:31):
The Saturday night game, My goodness, yeah, they are going
to be remembering.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
That one, all right. Then coming off of bye, coming
awful bye, they go to San.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Francisco forty nine ers, buy a million, okay. Then road
game in Atlanta, Atlanta really okay?
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Right? Uh? Home game against the Eagles, hmm.
Speaker 5 (10:00):
I think they're gonna lose the Philadelphia Okay.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Then Monday night home game against the Texans.
Speaker 5 (10:07):
Lose to Houston, Okay, and that'll be fun because then
all the Texans fans on Twitter, I'll be cloning Cowboys
fans on Twitter about who runs the state of Texas.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
All right.
Speaker 5 (10:18):
Then game at Washington, dak might throw for five hundred
yards against Washington's defense, So u Cowboys, give me Cowboys,
and give me Cowboys against New York as well. I
think they're gonna continue their their dominance over teams not
named the Eagles in the NFC East.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
That's a Thanksgiving Day game. So you're taking the Cowboys. Yeah, okay,
all right.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Monday night home game against the Bengals.
Speaker 5 (10:42):
Give me Joe Schiste, give me the Bengals, all right.
I think he'll be healthy by then. The Bengals will
be a pretty good team by December.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
All right. Then road game in Charlotte at Carolina.
Speaker 5 (10:53):
Yeah, no problem there, all right, So they win that.
Carolina may have one or two wins at that point.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Sunday night game three days before Christmas against Tampa Bay
could be interesting.
Speaker 5 (11:03):
You know, Baker Mayfield, chip on his shoulder type guy,
connections to taxes. Of course, I think I would lean Dallas,
but you know, usually because what's the record right now?
Speaker 1 (11:14):
What do I have them at seven and seventh?
Speaker 5 (11:16):
Seven and seven? Yeah? I could see things going off
the rails here, A lot a lot of Stampa Bay.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
All right, So you're gonna.
Speaker 5 (11:22):
Go this is when we start, when we're firmly and
Mike McCarthy is not coming back. Jerry Jones is being
asked about it on this Monday Show. He said, I'm
not talking about this anymore. So you're picking Tampa Bay then, yes, okay,
all right. Then they go to Philly, lose that one.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Okay, then they close out at home against Washington.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Probably a win there. So at eight and eight eight nine,
that's eight nine? Yeah? Is what that is? Wow?
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Here are you rooting for that to happen? Kind of
deep down? I am, see, I can't. That just drives
me crazy. What fans are supposedly are so loyal to
their team, and yet they want them to lose because
they say in a long hall to be better for
the team to make the change, it will be the
better in the log haul they make the chain. So
I'm rooting for them to lose. Okay, all right, and
(12:16):
you call yourself a fan apathetic Cowboys?
Speaker 1 (12:21):
Yeah, apathetic? I can sell proclaimed apathetic cowboys.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Okay, all right, we'll do this with the Texans when
we come back here on Sports Radio and thirteen hundreds
Zone in the Iart Radio app.
