In this Wednesday night episode of The Sports Cave with Biggest Puma, host Sam Freas lights the beam and dives deep into the potential chaos of the NFC East, the looming MLB trade deadline, and a whole lot more in between. Broadcasting from their still mysterious corner of San Antonio, Sam and the crew bring their signature blend of sports insight, nostalgia, and unfiltered humor to a jam-packed show. Main Highlights:
  • NFC East Preview: Can the Cowboys survive a brutal schedule and a battered O-line? Will Jayden Daniels avoid the sophomore slump and lead Washington to back-to-back playoff runs? And is Philly still the team to beat after losing key defensive pieces?
  • Cowboys Corner: Sam breaks down the George Pickens contract dilemma, Tyler Smith’s positional value, and why the Cowboys’ run defense might be their Achilles’ heel again.
  • MLB Trade Deadline Drama: From Johan Duran to Mason Miller, Sam and Cap dissect the biggest moves, overpays, and what it means for the Yankees and Rangers.
  • Rusty Greer’s Superman Catch: A nostalgic look back at Kenny Rogers’ 1994 perfect game, complete with a highlight that still gives goosebumps.
  • Benches Clear (Politely): A hilariously tame “brawl” between the Rangers and Angels leads to one of the most polite dust-ups in MLB history.
Plus, a lightning round that includes AI conspiracies, nitric acid attacks, and Gilbert Arenas’ alleged poker-pimping side hustle.

Lie du bean, Lie da be, Lie da be, lie
da be.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Light the beam. Indeed, welcome into another one of these
things that we sometimes all the time, most of the
time referred to as the sports cave with biggest Puma.
I am your host once again in surprisingly actually in
the small chair because I'm still using this ikea stolen furniture.

(00:33):
Basically no broadcasting here on the north side of San Antonio,
in our comfortable studio in parts unknown, where we find
ourselves thirty six days away now from NFL Opening Night,
that September fourth matchup up in Philly, Cowboys Philly. It's
actually appropriate where we finally made it all the way

(00:56):
through all of our divisional previews. We are now on
to the cherry on top that is the NFC East
in the main segment tonight. Got to actually have a
lot on the run sheet left over from Monday because
we spent so much time on our NFC West preview
because of your Niners fandom.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
Much needed, much needed, have.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
A feeling we might end up in the same situation tonight,
so we'll see what actually clears the run sheet. I
know something else we talked about Monday night, the Kenny
Rodgers Perfect Game in nineteen ninety four that just happened
to be on cub Scout Night and told that story.
We're gonna end the show with the highlight of that

(01:41):
game and talk a little I'd went and dug into
some deeper context, some even further context than we talked
about Monday. So we'll end the lightning round with that tonight.
I've got some cow notes, cowboy notes before we get
into the main segment, but before we really get up
and running here. I know y'all are anxiously awaiting, sitting

(02:02):
on the edge of your seat to find out what
national day it is.

Speaker 1 (02:07):
Oh, well, can I interest you in something?

Speaker 2 (02:10):
Do you have one of the four national days that
it is?

Speaker 1 (02:14):
No, I got a national day that is tomorrow, which
is National Chili Dog Day.

Speaker 2 (02:19):
I actually saw see I see the ones on Tuesday,
like the days that we don't do shows, and like
I'm making myself notes like three years from now, this
will be a great Monday night.

Speaker 1 (02:32):
You're gonna like review your notes from three years ago.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
Hey, look, I mean I've got notebooks from the years
of doing this now.

Speaker 1 (02:39):
The the inner thoughts of one puma.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
It's kind of fun, it's kind of fun to actually
dig back into them, and then other times it's extremely
embarrassing to see what I was taking notes about. The
now today it is National Climb a Mountain Day.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
Yeah pass what Yeah?

Speaker 2 (03:00):
That answered my follow up question before I could even
start it. Yeah, I kinda. I didn't take you as much,
have you?

Speaker 1 (03:07):
The air up there gets real thin. I went to
Red Rocks, okay, right, when.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
You've got a hike to get to a show at Red.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
Rock, dude, you gotta hike to get from the bottom
to the top of the amphitheater.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
You know.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
That's that's like big steps, like cutting stone. Like I
felt like it was like a mausoleum or something. That
kind of is kind of exactly what. But it was
Wu Tang with the Denver Symphy Orchestra and the one
and only he has his thoughts on it.

Speaker 2 (03:37):
L Jizzle was with me, Oh, this was the one.
I didn't realize that together.

Speaker 1 (03:41):
Yeah yeah, yeah, like we the symphony sounded great, but
as l G would put it, the Wu Tang the
audio sounded horrible for them. Yeah, it's always that was
a disgrace.

Speaker 2 (03:57):
Good lord, it was that bad.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
You know, he's a critigue man. He's the hardest person
to please.

Speaker 2 (04:03):
Yeah, I'm always hesitant of the rap show. Usually the
like who was it a Gez when he did a
big anniversary show a couple of years ago and had
the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra as the backdrop, Like, I think
that is the best you can possibly do at a
rap show because it sounded awesome.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
Well, see, they didn't they didn't do the orchestra with
the songs, which is what like obviously we thought, but
they had it. They played the entire thirty six Chambers
movie and every time there was a cut from one
of the songs, not just the enter the wu te
or into the thirty six Chambers, they would do that song,
but they would have the symphony playing during the movie

(04:46):
and not during the rap songs, so it sounded the
acoustics sounded awesome. Yeah, when the symphony came on and
then they would cut into the speaker system with the songs,
and it was just like, ah.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
Yes, that almost feels like uh not false advertising.

Speaker 1 (05:05):
But yeah, I mean it was a cool concept, you know,
you know, had his fingerprints all over that.

Speaker 2 (05:10):
So yeah, no, I would. I've still never been to
Red Rocks, but it would take a show like that,
like I think to actually, I need to make it.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
There's a sucking wind man up there, especially for smoking
heaters all the time.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
You'd be surprised. I got I've got swimmers, long aye,
and I can still yeah, I can still play pick
up with the best of them. But yeah, no I haven't.
I haven't climbed a mountain in a while. There was
a there was a minute in a younger portion of
my life where we did you know, obviously growing up
in Boy Scouts did a lot of camping, climbing, Yeah,

(05:45):
made it, did the highest peak in not a boy
Scout talks.

Speaker 3 (05:50):
Do you have something to tell us that you just
just I'm an Eagle Scout and it's actually nice to
be a little bit proud of the boy Scouts at
this point versus some of the.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
Some of that. It's I'll tell you what it is.
Ever since the uh, ever since those two Eagle Scouts
at oh yeah, at the at the camp and up
in Comfort, you know they save lives Kerrville. Yeah, that
was ever since that. It kind of it did it
kind of it made me for the first time in

(06:21):
a long because of all the bad things the boy
Scouts have gone through and also it was either earlier
this week talk about it's very similar to you know,
when it's that bad, you kind of just don't want
people to know you were ever associated.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
Faith Alec Baldwin or Phil Hartman, the doing the Cub Scouts.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
Oh yeah, sn with Sandlers, Yes, yeah, the different times
well actually we're closer, more similar times now than the
last few years now. It's uh, we we used to
do a lot of camping. It was you did the
high what was it Mount Baldy out there in West
Texas and did a lot in New Mexico. But it's
also if climbing a mountain isn't good for you, how

(07:08):
about National Cheesecake Day. The absolute opposite of climbing a mountain.

Speaker 1 (07:13):
A lot of lactose in that one, A lot of lactose.

Speaker 2 (07:16):
See that's one of the few cheats. Like, I'm not
a big dessert. I hate chocolate, not a big sweetskuy,
but I just love cheesecakes so dense. Yeah, I think
that's why I like it. I think that's why I
like it. It's also National Father in Law Day and
National Whistleblower Day.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
Hey, shout out to my father in law man he
had a percent procedures done and shout out to him.
He's doing really well. They took so well. That is generic,
but shout out to your father in law.

Speaker 2 (07:47):
Nonetheless out not a national day of celebration, but something
that we have talked about on this program before. I
think it was it was the NBA Draft watch a
long party that we did when we got in the
middle of the second round and you know, the the
edibles might have started to kick in and yeah, well

(08:11):
it was when we started talking about Jaws Win and
the monologue he gives when they're out there on the
beach and he describes, you know, fighting off the sharks
to survive the shipwreck. So it was on this day
in nineteen forty five that the US Indianapolis was sank.

(08:34):
When that story I think it's sank, isn't it. No, No,
it's sung, it's sunk. That's past tense and it's sunk. Well,
I'm gonna go sink. I'm going to lean into my
hillbilly grammar. It's when it's when that boat out there sank,
it's sank.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
I might be completely wrong. I am not an English major.

Speaker 2 (08:51):
Well, I bet you're closer than I am. No, it's
almost twelve hundred crewmen aboard. Three hundred originally went down
when it got hit. This is also a ship that
was carrying the atomic bomb that we would eventually.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
When it got hit like by a missior torpedoes. Who
torpedo does Japan?

Speaker 2 (09:12):
Oh yeah, yeah, it was a Imperial Japanese submarine.

Speaker 1 (09:17):
And we had the atomic on that one.

Speaker 2 (09:19):
Not at the time, but it's the ship that had
been transporting it. Oh and it a whole shit.

Speaker 1 (09:26):
Massive just missed that one.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
Japan Massive shit went down in twelve minutes. Three hundred
went down with the ship, and eight hundred and ninety
were left to fight off. I mean know what at
the time, it took him, like, I think it was
four days until the US Navy actually realized that they
had a ship that had gone down and had.

Speaker 1 (09:50):
I wonder how long it takes man, because like the
Titanic seemed like it took forever, and if that movie
was any kind of accurate.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
Yeah, I don't think it was. That had to have
and longer than twelve minutes.

Speaker 1 (10:01):
Because you know, he goes down and then it breaks
and it bobs up and down.

Speaker 2 (10:06):
Yeah, I think surely that took well, it took long
enough for the string instrument guys to play a full
song or two. Yeah, the only three hundred and sixteen
ended up surviving out of the eight hundred and ninety
in the water, and the majority of those eight to
ninety drowned or were eaten by sharks. One of the
worst stories. I think, I'm woe this.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
So there was like a shark infestation, just like just
like the movie. It's all coming together, isn't it, Aldy.

Speaker 2 (10:36):
That's why he's That's why that character he is so
hell bent.

Speaker 1 (10:41):
I haven't seen that. I really need to watch it.

Speaker 2 (10:43):
You really, I highly highly suggest it, especially on the
fifty year anniversary.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
So we got taken by his word that he's historically accurate.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
Yeah, it's and it is. The monologue is That's why
it's so great. And also the dude was a massive
drunk and was delivering it in between bouts of sobriety
as they were filming, so he's probably irine a thousand.

Speaker 1 (11:06):
It is so so great, yelling at the cameraman get off.

Speaker 2 (11:10):
Yeah. I again, if you haven't watched it in a while,
I would highly highly suggest it. I think I'm this
falls this week We've had the Buffalo Soldiers on Monday,
the USS Indianapolis. Today, I am full on early on
set Republican Now, as Shane Gillis would say, yeah, you're
watching the history change you get big. I'm falling asleep

(11:31):
to the to World War two documentaries, which again I
would highly suggest, like Jaws, not a bad use of
your time, not terrible, not terrible. Uh Now, main segment tonight,

Speaker 1 (13:29):
There was one time where I literally cussed out LG
on the phone, being like, you had the perfect opportunity
and you wasted it.

Speaker 2 (13:38):
I love the idea of U N LG actually getting
into it. Uh in real life when he known.

comfortable with him. Yeah, there's there's a little bit of
a different and trying to get him to break his NDA.

Speaker 2 (16:26):
Yeah, tip jokes won't get us demonetized anymore. So many jokes.
What a new horizon we find our test mark.

Speaker 1 (16:36):
I'm sitting here just gripping my chir like, Oh, I
could have gone so many places with.

Speaker 4 (16:40):
That, like Quagmire over here.

Speaker 2 (16:42):
Yes, that's exactly what it looks like. No, let's get
it started here. We're got a lot of football to
talk throughout the rest of the show, But as always,
we start on Wednesdays with what I watched, and as
high as I was on the Rangers, I'm still look.

(17:03):
A two game losing streak now doesn't feel like the
end of the world, and that is currently what the
Rangers are facing. They have they won eight of nine
on the homestand coming out of the All Star Break,
they've dropped the first two of the road trip in Anaheim.

Speaker 1 (17:18):
Or any of your top three pitchers did they?

Speaker 2 (17:22):
Well, see, that's the problem. The grom got roughed up
Game one, Grom got roughed and last night Patrick Corbin
pitched really well. Uh. But uncharacteristically, Rangers have committed the
fewest errors of any team in baseball this year. They've
been a pitching and fielding masterclass. Just haven't been able
to hit. Last night, it looked like it looked like

(17:46):
the the mid May early June Rangers. There were two
errors committed, some bad bass running. You feel right now
why at Langford got picked off at second? What what's
the sharp stick here?

Speaker 1 (17:59):
Because like the Yankees are like the highest in aired
team in defense right now.

Speaker 2 (18:04):
I'm not a huge believer in that being a oh
we've lost identifiers.

Speaker 1 (18:11):
We probably have lost so like three years ago or
four years ago, maybe five four or five years ago,
that's when we picked up your Selah and Lemayhew was
all part of this thing because we kept on making
errors and we started making defense and not batting our
number one priority. And what they start turning into wins

(18:35):
defense wins games. It actually loses games as well on
the other end of the stick, and we that like
we probably lost out of our like horrible month of July.
We probably lost five games just due to bad defense.

Speaker 2 (18:50):
Let me ask you this, if you're if you right now,
if you were two third basemen were available on the market,
say you needed a third baseman, would you rather have
the gold glover who hits two twenty eight or would
you rather have the guy that leads the majors and errors,
but hits forty five home runs.

Speaker 1 (19:09):
You've already know the answer to that.

Speaker 2 (19:10):
And that's where I say, I don't think it's like
both at the end of.

Speaker 1 (19:13):
The lead majors in home runs you're talking about.

Speaker 2 (19:16):
No, no, not leading. I mean, okay, he has thirty
five home runs. I'd still take the thirty home run
guy over the.

Speaker 1 (19:22):
Goldhowld of those are out there for trade, there's one.

Speaker 2 (19:25):
No, no, no no. But just in terms of which
one do I value more, the solid fielder who can't
field the bat or the guy who can't field but
is going to be the above average battles.

Speaker 1 (19:39):
See, that's what happened, like with Geo or Ju or
Sello man. When he came over here, he was like,
just like you said, the like solid third baseman, almost
gold glover, and he batted two thirty. But then all
of a sudden he started batting three hundred. And that's nice.

Speaker 2 (19:53):
When those guys all of a sudden start kitties tie
it up.

Speaker 1 (19:57):
Thank you. As soon as I say that, good things happen.
But yeah, so there are.

Speaker 2 (20:03):
I actually don't mind you being distracted by this game,
because I need Tampa Bay to keep losing.

Speaker 1 (20:08):
Volpi like he committed two errors last night. Damn near
gave up a game that we had a three run game.
We had a three run league going into the eighth
then and he ends up hitting his longest home run
to make up for it. But in the ninth was
he do short arms of routine grounder to short and
now just now I just saw he short armed another one.

Speaker 2 (20:30):
He'll get out of it, He'll didn't blow that game
last night though, No end up saving it. But I
gave up on it because it looked like y'all had.

Speaker 1 (20:36):
To exactly, but because of bad defense. And we can
say that about the World Series defense. We lost two games,
I would say due to bad with errors. You know,
we could have still been in game seven mode and
I could have been a very happy person this year.
But you get this old sour puss.

Speaker 2 (20:57):
Well, yeah, I'll resist the urge to point out the
fact that your godlike idol was the main perpetrator of
those errors that cost you a World Series?

Speaker 1 (21:10):
Are you happy to know it?

Speaker 2 (21:11):
Are you happy to know at least that you jinxed
Otani after comparing the Otanian judge stuff? So if you
missed it, earlier tonight, Otani threw six straight balls and
then the trainer came out talked it over with him.
He left the game due to injury. But now they're
saying it's just it was cramping. It's nothing. It doesn't

(21:33):
It feels like it was because he's they're stretching him
out to try to get him ready to be a
full front line starter by playoff time.

Speaker 1 (21:42):
One could say he jinks himself when he was betting
on the game. Yes, still not got Tommy John Dowt.

Speaker 2 (21:50):
It will It'll be really interesting to see if this uh,
this era of Otani on the Dodgers it is more
of a dud, because that will immediately be what it
all goes back to. I mean, ever since the game.

Speaker 1 (22:05):
Anybody actually believes that his translators stole money from him
to place all these bets. And I want full transparency.
I want the Epstein filed transcripts. You know what, it
reminds me of what bets. I want to know what
prop bets. I want to know everything.

Speaker 2 (22:21):
When Donahey got busted, the NBA officials got busted for
working with the mob in the same files, in the
same court case, in the same records. We know that
three other two other there were three total officials. Donahue
was one of them. There were two other they shut
them that were also working with the with the mob,

(22:43):
but only Donahe takes the heat and they say, no, no, no,
the league is the leg is peers of the league
is impenetrable to mafia.

Speaker 1 (22:53):
Or an interview the day before they shut him down.

Speaker 2 (22:55):
That was an interview. I was going to an interview
to do a tell all.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
They got to him.

Speaker 2 (23:01):
Yeah, fire put him on leave and they them. Yeah.
I think there's there's no question the league's to a
lot of extent go out of their way to cover
up as much as especially when it comes to the
integrity of the game, which is what gambling is. Maybe
they should have just had an informant in the Cleveland

(23:22):
Guardians clubhouse this year because that whole feat, I mean,
that might end up being the best possible reliever on
the market not getting traded because he's being implicated in
a gambling conspiracy or a gambling and.

Speaker 1 (23:38):
It's just prop bets. It's like, how can you be like, oh,
it is his first pitch gonna be a ball or strike.
I mean, like they got in bed with gambling, and
you think these guys aren't going to sit there and
capitalize on some prop bets, you know.

Speaker 2 (23:53):
Yeah, no, that's easy picking, especially in baseball where a
team is going to control your roster number. It's a
contract number for five years before you get arbitration.

Speaker 1 (24:03):
You could easily say it was a curveball and I
just held onto it for too long.

Speaker 2 (24:06):
There's so much what's it called, like room for air? Yeah, yeah, yeah,
where you can create doubt that it was intentional. You know,
speaking of relievers possibly getting traded, we did have you know,
we are officially now less than twenty four hours away
trade deadlines, what like to three o'clock tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (24:28):
Something like that, Yeah, three o'clock Eastern, I believe.

Speaker 2 (24:32):
So two o'clock here. We did have two names taking
off the board earlier today that I think both of
our favorite teams Yankees Rangers would have been interested in.
But the prices, just seeing these guys getting moved today
and what the price cost.

Speaker 1 (24:50):
Yeah, you got to give up your number one prospect.
That's what Philly did.

Speaker 2 (24:54):
I mean for relief pitchers, and I understand the game
is so much different now where a bull arm it's
not as important as a starting pitcher, but they're being
relied on and used way more, yeah than they have
ever in the past. But some of these prospects that
got moved, and again, a prospect is just that it's
a prospect. Even if he's a top one hundred guy.

(25:16):
There's no guarantee. It's not like you're trading. It's not
like the any other league. These guys are still a
crap shoot.

Speaker 1 (25:22):
But you still are relying on experts that know the game,
see the swings, can say that guy's swing is gonna
last for ten plus years versus a guy who sits
there and has a jerky motion, and you're like, okay,
I can see this one him being streaky because all
of a sudden his swing gets out of tune.

Speaker 2 (25:42):
You know. It's also like I've seen it, you know,
the last couple of years with the Rangers, where you know,
like Kirby Yates was awesome for them last year, and
you know, granted he's old, but you see relievers, you
know in Can he was another one up several years ago.
You see relievers lose it just as soon as their

(26:07):
elite the very next year. Even some of the best guys.
It doesn't matter age or not. It just feels like
it's such a crapshoot to give up that much for
a relief pitcher. Philly gave way too, Philly gave up
a lot. We'll start with that one. Philly getting Johann
Duran from the Twins gave up a big time catching prospect,

(26:30):
not sure how at Duardo Tate, t Ai t And
then the other one, Mick Abell and he the pitcher
Mitt is tight maybe tight? Yeah, he is a he
is ready to go, uh you know, first round starting pitcher,
talent guy, Yeah, but hasn't cracked the big leagues yet.

(26:53):
And then the catcher is super young. He's still eighteen,
but one of the you know, ten best catching prospects
in baseball according to the experts.

Speaker 1 (27:02):
But yeah, both.

Speaker 2 (27:03):
Of those guys are top one hundred prospects in all
of baseball, have you noticed?

Speaker 1 (27:08):
Which is insane?

Speaker 2 (27:09):
Again, even though they get Duran for two and a
half the rest of this year and two more years
of team control, that's still a lot to give up.
But that's a guy who's hoping the Rangers might have
lucked into getting but not at that price. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (27:23):
So I've been really interested in to see how the
progression of the release point of these pitchers is being
really focused on, and like where like they if the
release points a little higher, a little bit to the left,
and stuff like that, it matters so much because they
can't pick up the spin on the ball as quick

(27:45):
and whatnot, so they don't know if it's.

Speaker 2 (27:47):
A slider, splitter fastball.

Speaker 1 (27:50):
And that's really interesting because you know that's more going
on the analytics and more going to like, is this
guy going to be a long term reliever? Are they
going to start picking up on his curveball a little
bit sooner?

Speaker 2 (28:02):
Well, perfect example of that. Another guy that got traded,
Tyler Rodgers, the reliever from the Giants, goes to the
Mets the submarine submarine. Again. He only throws like mid eighties,
but it's release point. It looks like it elevates on
you and it looks like it's coming right at you
as you're standing in the box because he's literally releasing

(28:24):
it wider, he's releasing it from outside your body and
it's coming in sweeping across.

Speaker 1 (28:32):
One of my favorite things in the Derek Jeter documentary
is like, I could not He's like, I just guessed
on all those sidearm pitchers. He's like, I could never
pick up that ball. He's like, every time I hit
the ball on one of those side arms, He's like,
I was just guessing.

Speaker 2 (28:45):
Yeah. I mean it kind of feels, uh, you know,
it kind of feels like that's probably him being honest,
where a lot of guys would agree but just might
not say it, because.

Speaker 1 (28:55):
When you live in Yankee lore, like our captain, you
can be a little truthful.

Speaker 2 (29:01):
You would even still agree Jeter's not the best shortstop ever. Right,
I'm just trying to test your Yankee fandom. How far?
How far it affects your bias, but it affects my bias.

Speaker 1 (29:12):
Now, is he the best Yankee shortstop?

Speaker 2 (29:15):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (29:16):
Sure, but not ever in all of baseball and defensive
I mean for the defensive, offensive and clutch performance. That's
a trifecta.

Speaker 2 (29:26):
I mean, Ozzie Smith is the best defensive. I like
that one. But what was His's the best offensive shortstop ever?
All right? I give you that one. Peter's the best.

Speaker 1 (29:38):
How's the clutch? How's the clutch?

Speaker 2 (29:40):
Sure?

Speaker 1 (29:41):
And then he still has a gold glove. He got
a couple of gold gloves and how many did he
did he get? He got a couple of ones. He
got one, I think he got one before a Rod,
and then he got one when A went to third base.

Speaker 2 (29:54):
I missed the days of arguing with my friends in uh,
you know, like first class home room, Miguel to Hatta
versus Derek Jeter like that. Yeah, that feel like I was.
I was hard on the stump for Tata back then.
The I just wanted to test after after Monday's episode

(30:14):
where I realized the extent of your Niners fandom affecting
some of the analysis, some of the disagreement. I just
wanted I'm still testing the Yankee boundaries. No, uh, Crosstown
from your Yankees. The Mets got another guy. I was
hoping that again, hoping the Rangers might be interested in
but this price tag. Uh, Mets get Ryan Helsley from

(30:36):
the Cardinals. Hellsley a former All Star closer having a
down year this year.

Speaker 1 (30:42):
A big signing man like you go get revamped, like
going to a different team that is in the mix
for the you know, for the.

Speaker 2 (30:52):
It gets you more. I think it helps you refocus,
for sure.

Speaker 1 (30:55):
It definitely will. It will give you some momentum. Okay,
all right, we won't get into that again.

Speaker 2 (31:01):
But yeah, momentum exists, but it's not as important as
people say it is. Okay, that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (31:07):
All Right, I broke them a little bit. I will
get them there.

Speaker 2 (31:09):
Yeah, I see him there for you doesn't exist just
to be defiant against it, because it's still about the
actual Ryan Helsley will either fail or succeed based on
his talent alone instead of any momentum he had. Like
right now, speaking of momentum, we've you know, talked, I've

(31:31):
talked a lot about the Rangers resurgence. We'll see what
they do before tomorrow afternoon, because I still think some
kind of move is in the works. But you want
to talk about momentum, how about a twenty seven game
on base streak. Now, twenty eight games after Monday night,
Corey seeger a second longest on base streak of his career,

(31:54):
and he's it's been a big I mean again, that's
twenty eight games over the last thirty. The Rangers have
finally crawled back above five hundred. You know, at when
he started this, they were ten plus games behind the Astros,
and now Astros won earlier today, so they're five and
a half back now. Seekers numbers during the streak. I

(32:16):
saw Jared Sandler put this out. He's hitting three forty
for sixty four slugging or yeah for sixty no for
sixty four on base six seventy slugging, seventeen extra base hits,
eight home runs, twenty two runs, and twenty two RBIs.
So he's almost an RBI at game over the last month.

Speaker 1 (32:37):
Okay, So I was about to say what his ops
was during, like.

Speaker 2 (32:43):
Be a thousand yeah right, a thousand and one?

Speaker 1 (32:46):
Yeah, yeah, okay, but yeah, I mean not as good
as you know Judges ops for the year, who's like
eleven hundred.

Speaker 2 (32:55):
But you know, yeah, that's see and that's where Sear
should sit.

Speaker 1 (32:58):
God like numbers.

Speaker 2 (33:00):
Yeah, I you know, that's that's been the Rangers problem.
Uh so far this season, there just hasn't been you know,
the big name guys haven't been.

Speaker 1 (33:10):
Don't get anybody, man, because like y'all have y'all do.
Like you said, you have the best record in July.

Speaker 2 (33:18):
Second it might be second best now since they dropped
two yeah, and Toronto seven of the last ten.

Speaker 1 (33:25):
We jumped up two and a half games on Toronto.
So instead of being six and a half back or
only four back, we put some patting on the wild
card for the Yankees. So I mean to see the
Rangers and the Yankees not make moves for a you
need hitting a little bit, yeah, and we both need relievers.

Speaker 2 (33:47):
You know. I did see y'all made one other move
besides the one you talked about Monday. Utility outfield guys.
It was Austin Slater from the White Sox. Yeah, just
a veteran. He's gonna fill in at least at minimum.
Wild judge is out because Stan's gonna have to waddle
in and waddle out.

Speaker 1 (34:05):
He's he's gonna be our pitch guy.

Speaker 2 (34:07):
Speaking of speaking of waddling, I got a good video
for you here in a second, because the Rangers actually
had a very tame bench clearing situation last night.

Speaker 1 (34:18):
Oh is it when the two managers went at each other.

Speaker 2 (34:20):
A little bit. We'll talk about that here in a second.
One final thought about the trade deadline. I think you're
absolutely right. I think you're I think the Yankees are
more likely to make a bigger move than the Rangers are,
and mainly because the so Baseball obviously doesn't have a

(34:40):
salary cap, but they do have tax limitations on into
luxury tax. Right, so if you go over the luxury
tax three straight years, you start having repercussions exactly. Eventually
you lose first round draft picks as along with paying

(35:01):
exponentially more. I think you end up paying like three
times what you should have. Uh So, the Rangers have
been a tax team two straight years, and if you
do it three straight years, that's where some of the
restrictions start.

Speaker 1 (35:14):
I don't think we're getting See, that's where I think.

Speaker 2 (35:19):
Might unfortunately end up in Seattle, which would suck for
potentially both of us. If Seattle, uh.

Speaker 1 (35:27):
Well, if he's division wildcard both.

Speaker 2 (35:30):
For me, wild card for you. But the Rangers right
now they're a little bit under the tax, which is
why they traded Dane Dunning to the Braves a couple
of weeks ago, because they're trying to make a little
bit of room. But if Texas were to add someone
with a lot of salary, or even a moderate amount

(35:50):
of salary, they'd have to get rid of something else,
Like right now, the Jock Peterson signing, that's just it's
an albatross, man, I mean, it is. It is easy, bad, bad.
How much is he on the books for Oh, dude,
I think it's I think it's twenty something. It's not good. Yeah,

(36:12):
I think technically it might be right at So it
was a two year thirty seven, so it's right at twenty.

Speaker 1 (36:17):
It's like not eighteen and a half milk.

Speaker 2 (36:20):
But he's since coming back from his stint. Yeah, Well,
the problem for the Rangers it wasn't the money given
to him now, it's the tax. Like if he was
even if he was even doing slightly below what his
average numbers are, it wouldn't be as big of a deal.
But he's I mean, he's over eleven since he came

(36:41):
off the IL. He was bad before that at the
beginning of the season. He had the longest over streak
of his entire career at the beginning of the season.
It's just been an awful signing and potentially could end
up being the reason why the Rangers are hamstrong in
bringing in anybody else before the deadline tomorrow. No mentioned

(37:04):
the waddling. So last night I'm watching the Ranger game.
It was a terrible game. It was a It was
a really fun game to watch because it was so
Wheels off. But it was also incredibly frustrating for the
same reason because it was Wheels off and you know,
Rangers every time they scored couldn't get a shut down

(37:25):
inning the next time up. So it was Rangers would
score to tie it or take the lead, Angels would
get it right back or tie it back up. And
then I believe it was the eighth inning, Uh where
we got to find we got to see a little
bit of a little I say benches clearing. Technically I

(37:46):
guess they did, but there there was nothing to it.

Speaker 1 (37:48):
Both both the both the coaches like looked at each
other and said, you want to go out, you want
to do you have.

Speaker 2 (37:54):
The SELTI I sent it to I pulled a cap
and sent it to you right before the show. But
they they hit like that side swide. They hit the
Angel's leadoff guy. The runner was on third, two run
game seven to five Angels, and they hit Neddo who

(38:16):
had it was the second time to get hit in
the game. Then Trout's up batting second immediately hit Trout
right on the elbow guard in the same place he hit,
So he's clearly it's not intentional, He's just trying to
throw inside. It's a two run game. Clearly they're not
intentionally trying to load the bases. But the Angels manager

(38:40):
at the same time has to stick up. You know,
he didn't. He didn't do it when Nedo got hit.
The second time, when Trout got hit. Then we got
him challenging Bruce Bochie from from across the field stop traffic.

(39:02):
Oh goodness, And that sounds like it hit the bat.
How hard it hit the way? That's that elbow guard.
And as they swap six thousand pluster here who man?
Ray Montgomery is drawing at the Rangers.

Speaker 1 (39:20):
He's like, you want to talk somehow, let's go, old man,
And here they come of the Trout gets in between them.
Oh you got all the Rangers, and I.

Speaker 2 (39:31):
Guess the Angels.

Speaker 1 (39:32):
Angels, I guess we'll go out there too, you know,
just to make it look like a baseballs from But
that's the most polite benches clearing I probably have never
seen in my life.

Speaker 2 (39:45):
Yeah, and that's where I say, like Montgomery Angels, Ray
Montgomery seeing them go.

Speaker 1 (39:50):
Harder at the umps and they went at it with
each other.

Speaker 2 (39:53):
It almost feels like it reminded me of a little
lecture size coming in from extra great. Dave's great. No,
it immediately brought flashbacks of the you know Don Zimmer
Pedro slinging don Zimmer.

Speaker 1 (40:08):
Like feisty, Yeah, he hated well.

Speaker 2 (40:11):
And Bochie is my size, like he's six', four played
catcher his whole, life so his knees are. Shot he
waddles like every time they do a pitching. CHANGE i
swear The rangers are able to sell an extra minute
of commercial time because it takes him so long to
get to the mound and back every single time he

(40:31):
has to go out, there and just seeing you, Know Ray,
MONTGOMERY i think he's in his mid, fifties you, know
getting all high tea yelling At Bruce, bochie And Bruce
bochi is just, like well hold, on hold, on give
me a, second let me Just he's like walking up the.

Speaker 1 (40:46):
Stairs he's, Like i'm gonna get to.

Speaker 2 (40:47):
You i'm go get to. You. Yeah there was that was,
HONESTLY i mean that was the. Highlight rangers couldn't come.
Back AS i, said they dropped the second game out
there play again tonight, actually, uh just first pitch ten
minutes or so, ago so hopefully they avoid.

Speaker 1 (41:04):
The The yankees about to drop it our, closer which
we're actually looking to acquire athletics. CLOSER i forget his,
name But hamilton just gave up a two run home run,
too Not, Ta So Tampa bay took the.

Speaker 2 (41:19):
Lead if y'all went out and Got Mason, miller that would.

Speaker 1 (41:22):
Be we need, him that would. Be that's WHY i
think we're targeting the.

Speaker 2 (41:26):
Most if, so If duran the price was two top
one hundred prospects From minnesota or going To minnesota for,
him we have. One we have a.

Speaker 1 (41:39):
NUMBER i would Think.

Speaker 2 (41:40):
Mason miller gets not, significantly but definitely more than that
in a trade.

Speaker 1 (41:45):
Reason So Brian cashman's already said our top prospects off the.
Board he's like that guy's off the. BOARD i don't
know if our second or third are on the, board
but like right, now our like.

Speaker 2 (41:57):
Our bullpen is.

Speaker 1 (41:59):
Hot Garb man lewise ago when he came, back he
was one of the. Few he had the nastiest. Fastball
he would throw one on one with, movement and that
thing was. Unhittable now he can't get. It, now he
can't even get up to one, hundred and that thing
is just sitting like a. Meatball his curveball doesn't, move
so it's hanging every. Time he's got no command on.

(42:22):
It and this is him coming out of THE, il
and he's our number, one like multiple inning relief. Pitcher
he was our he was our. Star and we've already
had like three already go on IN. Il so we're
pulling up. People LIKE i, said we Have warren, today
who's he killed. It gable only gave up one run
and he's a Rook but now we have rookie of

(42:45):
the year last, Year Luis, hill gonna make his starting debut,
TOMORROW i, believe and hopefully one of these rookies will
be a long ending pitcher and we can do like
a bullpen.

Speaker 2 (42:57):
Game, yeah that's almost like a tray in and of,
itself getting him back to make a season. Debut IT'S
i mean on deadline, Day.

Speaker 1 (43:05):
I'm telling, you when starting pitching with, us like if
we had our rookie of the Year Garrett cole rode
on for, free like we would have been one of.
Them we would have been right there with y'all with
who's got the better starting?

Speaker 2 (43:21):
Rotation, YEAH i, UH i mean, again you look at
the look at Your All aisle team and you're still
you're still in the. Playoffs, yeah The rangers have had
that great pitching and came out of the wild. Card, now,
uh you mentioned the The athletics potentially y'all trading For Mason.

(43:44):
Miller it's an interesting trade deadline because teams like like
The angels, today The angels are two games under five
hundred and they could go out and make a trade
for two. Relievers one of them. Did Andrew, chafin the
guy The rangers traded for the deadline last. Year he
had the funniest quote last year when The rangers traded for.

(44:05):
Him he had been A Detroit tiger. Forever he looks
Like Kenny. Powers so you might not know the, name
BUT i guarantee you you recognize. Him got the, curls
got the Musta, mississippi the handlebars. Rocking he last year
when he was traded To, texas a reporter asked, him you,
know what are your thoughts on the, trade and he, said,

(44:26):
WELL i guess at least it's Not. California and now
he's going two games under five hundred and is giving
up prospects for release. Pitchers so you, know The, athletics
when you just look at The American. League we've you,
know The orioles are nine games, under probably have they're

(44:50):
going to offload some. Pieces they've already offloaded a, couple,
Right and could we could See Cedric mullins go. TOMORROW
i mean they could go full.

Speaker 1 (44:57):
Nuclear Cedric mullins is going craz yeahsing doing like a,
highlight real.

Speaker 2 (45:06):
Kitch but they're the only team in The east that
is out of. It, yeah every other team is at
five hundred door. ABOVE i can see all of them
making the, play all of, them AND i could see
all of them make a deal before the. Deadline American
League Central tigers are the only team that's really looking
to make. Deals guardians Apparently Stephen kwan is, available could

(45:28):
see him get. Moved they obviously were gonna potentially entertain
the idea of Moving CLASS a before he got caught
up in the. Gambling and then you, know The Restaurant, Royals,
Twins White sox probably are going to be. Sellers royals
are the only one we've seen The twins already Trade
paddock And. Duran maybe The royals try to hang around

(45:51):
to stick in. It and then The American League, west
every team except the athletics is potentially going to make
moves or have already made.

Speaker 1 (46:00):
Move, so you, know someone brought up a good point
About CLASS. A it's, like there's they're just looking at
the trends And i'm, like if you can't put on
a reasonable and we need a home run to tie, it,
okay mister number, one and, uh.

Speaker 2 (46:19):
We're gonna get rid of THIS.

Speaker 1 (46:20):
Tv it's a it's ninth. Inning but mister leads THE
mlb and, errors he just hits a home run every
time he does an. Error it's. Crazy he gives a,
little he gives, it he takes it.

Speaker 2 (46:32):
Back it's the most infuriating kind of. Player, yeah but.

Speaker 1 (46:37):
Well CLASS. A they made the points where it's LIKE
i would sue THE mlb and be, like how dare
you take my, livelihood take my reputation with no proof
except a trend on a betting?

Speaker 2 (46:51):
Website well those are that you, know when when trends
on betting websites prove to be related to someone interfering
with it as often as it, IS i, mean you're
talking like ninety five times out of one.

Speaker 1 (47:09):
Hundred but in this day Of, reddit this day of
like all these like you, know you had stock market trends.

Speaker 2 (47:14):
And oh, yeah wells follow.

Speaker 1 (47:17):
Unusual you'll get rich if you have one podcast or
sit there and be like this guy always throws a
ball on his first. Pitch take that as a prop,
bet and then all of a sudden it goes through the.

Speaker 2 (47:27):
Roof it's, like it's not the trends that he's throwing,
it it's the trends of the bets being. Placed that's
what flags. Them so when all of a sudden a
guy puts a thirteen thousand dollars bet on a book
he's never bet with before on a single pitch to
start a, game.

Speaker 1 (47:43):
Boop that's a red.

Speaker 2 (47:44):
Flag, yeah that's an instant. Identifier or he goes a
multiple game, game spreads it out exactly and does, exactly
that's where you start to get. Popped but, no just
looking at The American, league there are more teams contending
then there are out of. It that's WHERE i think
the market is going to be.

Speaker 1 (48:05):
Weird the bottleneck of like the people that are in
contention for the, wildcard especially because we extended the, wildcard
is there's a bottleneck in both, leagues you, know like
there's Only.

Speaker 2 (48:15):
National league less so Because National, league the you, know
the closest team because they have that worst division right,
right and the you know when you look at the
wild card standings for The National league compared to The American,
League So American league there are, one, two, three, four

(48:37):
five teams that are four games or less out of
a playoff, spot and then The National league there is.

Speaker 1 (48:44):
One when you talk about wild card THAT i just
go with. Defense when you.

Speaker 2 (48:49):
Talk about the teams that are potentially still fighting for
a wild, card The American league is is much tighter
among the teams that think they might be a playoff.
Team speaking Of National league teams that are at cratering
or falling out of, it here's a fun baseball fact
for stat for. You The giants went zero to six

(49:12):
on this homestand that they just concluded earlier today.

Speaker 1 (49:17):
Worst offense in the league since The dever's.

Speaker 2 (49:20):
Trade and they were swept by The pirates the last
three of these.

Speaker 1 (49:25):
Games so it's.

Speaker 2 (49:25):
Bad. Bad they've lost eleven of thirteen. Overall it is
bad In San. Francisco to put it into, context how
bad that is the only other time The giants franchise
went winless on a home stand of six games or,
more take a guess what, Year just take a random.

Speaker 1 (49:47):
Guess were they In San? Francisco, no that's What i'm
trying to. Like, Point oh my, god nineteen thirty.

Speaker 2 (49:55):
Two, nope the stock market hadn't crashed, yet The Great
depression hadn't taken. Place april of eighteen ninety. Six, yeah
they lost three games to The phillies.

Speaker 1 (50:08):
When they had a year.

Speaker 2 (50:09):
Something three games to The phillies and then three games
to The boston Bean eaters the.

Speaker 1 (50:14):
Beat that's how.

Speaker 2 (50:16):
Long it's been since The giants were swept on a
six Game homestand how you going to be a bean?

Speaker 1 (50:23):
Eater i'm not gonna be no bean.

Speaker 2 (50:25):
Eater. Absolutely, Again that's WHY i love baseball so, much
because you can find that something something just happened in
baseball this week that hadn't happened since eighteen ninety. Six,
yeah that's that's.

Speaker 1 (50:38):
Always.

Speaker 2 (50:39):
Uh the only other baseball NOTE i had obviously Come.
Monday will react to whatever happens tomorrow at the trade,
deadline BUT i don't think we mentioned it On. Monday
there's been a lot of death. Lately you. Know we had,
that we had the natural trifecta of you, Know Ozzy

(51:01):
hogan and the guy from Theo, huxtable the guy From
The Cosby, show but one that kind of not slid
through the. Cracks but we just haven't had a chance
to get to it. Yet you announced it. BREAKING i
Remember Ryan, sandberg but we haven't actually talked about. It

(51:23):
AND i think for you, know a lot of, dudes
a lot of people our age and, younger you, know
the forty and. Undercrowd you. Were you caught the tail
end Of sandberg's, career mainly because OF, wgn BECAUSE.

Speaker 1 (51:38):
I, remember LIKE i Remember sandberg just READING i was
a baseball ball cart. Creer, yeah and From sandberg was
like he was, like didn't he WIN mvp his second?

Speaker 2 (51:47):
Year. Yep that was a part of that magical nineteen
eighty four. Team the the, number The Ryan sandberg's numbers
are absolutely. Insane AND i think of him, more you,
KNOW i think of him more as again from being you,
know eight years old in nineteen ninety. FOUR i think

(52:09):
of him as that early Nineties Ryan sandberg BECAUSE i
just didn't see him before, that BECAUSE i, wasn't you,
KNOW i was barely.

Speaker 1 (52:17):
Born he was like The Don maddelin of The. Yankees
where he's like the only that's a.

Speaker 2 (52:21):
Great comp and then and then they got better around.

Speaker 1 (52:25):
Him, yeah but he was the anchor so clubs for
so many.

Speaker 2 (52:30):
Years ten Time All star from eighty four to ninety,
three ten straight YEARS mvp and eighty, four nine Time
Gold Glove, award seven Times Silver, slugger and his Last
Silver slugger came in ninety, Two so you're still cranking
in ninety. Two in nineteen ninety nineteen ninety as a second,

(52:52):
baseman he led The National league in home. Runs that
just sounds that's insane to think, About like modern baseball
compared to Was.

Speaker 1 (53:03):
Frank Frank thomas came in a little bit after.

Speaker 2 (53:06):
THAT i think.

Speaker 1 (53:08):
That was before, like but they still had.

Speaker 2 (53:12):
Damn.

Speaker 1 (53:13):
MAN i think that was a pictures man. Like through
the late eighties through the early nineties was picture. YEARS
i remember a lot of great. Pictures but then you
had The Frank thomas come in and all the long ball,
Hitters mark, McGuire.

Speaker 2 (53:29):
Jim tom before The Kirk.

Speaker 1 (53:33):
What's The?

Speaker 2 (53:34):
Phillies was? It was It? Kurt? YEAH i believe which
one The?

Speaker 1 (53:39):
Phillies the one THAT i got scared By Randy Johnson's
john Krug kruk is.

Speaker 2 (53:45):
Cruck. Yeah one of the Greatest All Star game appearances. Ever. Yeah.
Yeah the other Fun sandberg uh career. Fact the year
he debuted for The cubs Was Harry carey's first.

Speaker 1 (54:02):
Year, oh the year he Retired Harry carys last year.

Speaker 2 (54:08):
Because of health.

Speaker 1 (54:09):
Reasons, yeah And Brian sandberg had two years off like
like in the late in the mid of the late.

Speaker 2 (54:16):
Nineties, yeah NINETY i saw. It Ninety it was like

shit he resigned and they were. Bad they were really.
Bad it was and it wasn't that long. Ago it

with the. Doctor behind going in sounds smelling like subway
and like it's like a rollover on your side and.
Relaxed And i'm, like, No i'm not, relaxed.

Speaker 2 (56:02):
MAN i don't Think i'm going to be able to
relax in any condition. Here thank, You. Jerry that's actually
a perfect. Transition let's get into a little cowboys notes
before we do the main SEGMENT Nfc East. Previews so
we talked On. Monday we had news of The Tyler
geiton injury not being a FULL acl. Tear it's just

(56:27):
one of those random football. Moments oh, no, no, no
he just broke a bone in his. Leg that he'll be.
Fine that's better than we're going out. There, well so
that's now the question of it's four to six weeks
Estimated opening day is in five, weeks five weeks from tomorrow.

(56:47):
NIGHT I i don't think there's any way he's out
there opening, night which is, now you, know cowboys looking
at short term fill ins because the other angle to,
this they've got To we talk a lot about The micah.
Contract we talk a lot About Michael parson uh and

(57:10):
and them dragging that. Out, well right now the script,
is you, know last year it Was Cede lamb getting
strung out through training. Camp this year it's gonna Be
Michael Parson. Ys jerry told us the next name on
that list of top tier talent on the roster that

(57:31):
needs a contract As Tyler, smith who now is you
know we TALK pff grades From monday. Night Tyler smith
is a top ten offensive guard according TO pff some
even having top five, already he's a guy that's going
to get paid that top, level Like, micah LIKE. Cd

(57:53):
and you, know when you're thinking about constructing a, team
you can only you know your your prime positions are, quarterback,
tackle left, tackle if your quarterback's right, handed you, know, edge, rusher.
Corner those are your four positions that you pay top dollar.
Two everyone else is. Interchangeable you figure it. Out wide

(58:15):
receiver has become that fifth position, now which is also
we'll talk About George pickens in a, second because The
cowboys are starting to have those positions fully locked.

Speaker 1 (58:28):
In, okay The Tyler.

Speaker 2 (58:30):
Smith one gets interesting because you just look at what
the top offensive guards are getting paid versus number One
williams exactly.

Speaker 1 (58:41):
Who just got.

Speaker 2 (58:41):
His but compare that to a guy Like slater out
In Los angeles with The, chargers who just got paid
as a, tackle and there's about a ten million dollar.
Difference so your top line tackles are getting twenty nine,
million your top line guards are getting About.

Speaker 1 (59:00):
So they're, thinking are they talking?

Speaker 2 (59:02):
Franchise, well and this is like we were talking about
with the tight ends wanting to be franchised as a.
Receiver The cowboys have to be careful because if they
decide That guidon isn't going to be, like we're he's
not our long term solution to. Tackle, yeah and if
they make the decision to Move Tyler smith, outside he

(59:25):
needs a. Contract, yeah you should be talking to him
right now to get a deal done as an offensive.
Guard and then as soon as he signs that be, Like, okay,
no we're gonna play you at tackle Until Tyler guiden has.

Speaker 1 (59:39):
Batter or even give him a contract during the middle
of the year to bring up some. Momentum it's something like.

Speaker 2 (59:44):
That, yeah but he's the next guy. On SO i
think the way they use him over the course of
the beginning of the, season it could potentially either save
them a lot of money or cost them a lot of.
Money and then the other one mentioned Mentioning George pickens
and talking about what positions you, Pay, well they've already

(01:00:07):
GOT cd locked up.

Speaker 1 (01:00:08):
On the you, know number one.

Speaker 2 (01:00:10):
DEAL i think he's now the third highest paid, receiver
fourth highest something right. There we started to see some
receivers get. Extended we Had Courtland sutton signed the four,
year ninety two million dollar deal In, denver.

Speaker 1 (01:00:25):
THOUGHT i thought that was very.

Speaker 2 (01:00:26):
GENEROUS i thought so, too which is where because With
George pickens there was always a.

Speaker 1 (01:00:32):
Hight there was always a high ceiling For, sutton but
he never lived up to. It but he started having
he started him and Bow nicks started to get catches
some chemistry towards the end of the.

Speaker 2 (01:00:43):
Year, yeah and, they you, know the The broncos gave
up on another, Guy Jerry, judy who was taken in
the same draft AS, cd started going wild for The
browns and, now and so The browns gave him a three,
year fifty two and a half million dollar. Contract what's
that nineteen million a?

Speaker 1 (01:01:01):
Year, YEAH i mean you're looking at like the average,
NOW i, mean even with The Jwan jennings with some
guaranteed money and, stipulations he's getting almost a seventeen. Million
and he's our second, receiver Right, SO i mean you're
looking at the top, tiers looking for twenty five to twenty.

Speaker 2 (01:01:19):
Eight but that second tier is the One i'm interested in,
now BECAUSE i.

Speaker 1 (01:01:24):
MEAN i would say about eighteen to twenty.

Speaker 2 (01:01:26):
So and That's Jerry judy money right. Now George pickens
is in a contract. Year cowboys went out gave up
a third round pick for him to bring him over From,
pittsburgh but he's still in a contract. Year so, ideally
as A cowboy, FAN i want him to ball out
so that the offense does. Well but there's a level

(01:01:48):
there where if he goes out and shows too, much
he's going to price himself out of what The cowboys
are going to be comfortable. Offering because at the end
of the, day he's He he's their number. Two he
could probably be a number one for multiple other, teams
which is my fear that someone ends up paying him
like a number one after this season and The cowboys

(01:02:11):
will lose a third round. Pick we'll talk about that
the main.

Speaker 1 (01:02:14):
Segment if he's gonna be able to handle being the
number two.

Speaker 2 (01:02:17):
Guys, SEE i think IT'S i go both ways on
it because you don't have to go. Far you just
look at the rest of the division right. Now The
eagles have Aj brown And Devonte smith both locked. Up
they still were able to Add Saquan they've Got Jalen
hurts locked, up like their money, situation but.

Speaker 1 (01:02:36):
They had a clean house right After Super, bowl that's the.
Thing so it left a lot of people. Left that's
where the cowboys have the.

Speaker 2 (01:02:44):
Chance if, they if, they if they would just do
their business differently than they, do they could lock Up
Tyler smith right. Now have that situation. Settled you're gonna
Get micah. Done you're gonna pay whatever you're gonna pay for.
It he's not going anywhere Because George pickens.

Speaker 1 (01:03:02):
And deron forty one, dollars, yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:03:06):
Forty point zero zero zero, one just to be the
bigger Than Miles. Garrett whatever it, takes it's gonna end
up getting. Done but the names Like Tyler, SMITH i
Think Deron bland is a step way, below not way,
below but quite a bit Below Tyler smith in terms
of contract. Urgency but they're gonna have. To there's a

(01:03:26):
business that needs to get done besides Just. Micah and
The pickens one is the one that interests me the
most because when you give up a third round pick
for a, GUY i don't think you're settling for that
as a one year.

Speaker 1 (01:03:39):
RENTAL na like and did like he's not on his rookie.
CONTRACT i believe he got Paid. Pickens that's still rookie,
deal still rookie. Dial so this he's coming into his third,
YEAR i believe, no.

Speaker 2 (01:03:55):
This is his fourth year because the so that's what
The steelers didn't pick out the fifty they didn't and
The cowboys can't because he was. Traded so he it's
a full fledged contract year no matter, what he's hitting the.
Market if they don't re sign him between now and,
now how is.

Speaker 1 (01:04:11):
The cowboys Cap this is garbage right, now because you got.

Speaker 2 (01:04:16):
It, is but it's not so the dak.

Speaker 1 (01:04:18):
Way you're not going to have enough money to Pay Pickens.

Speaker 2 (01:04:22):
Tyler you do If pickens is on A Jerry judy like,
Contract If pickens is under it somewhere between seventeen and twenty,
million they can do that. Deal see that's where that's
WHERE i, know that's WHERE i start to get quite
a bit concerned that they gave up a third round

(01:04:42):
pick for a one year rental the MORE i actually
look at, it which is why we're talking about it.
Now another name that both our teams have been linked.
To WE i think we mentioned it or maybe we
had it on the run sheet From. Monday The Christian
wilkins situation is enter to, say the lead gooser, Himself,

(01:05:02):
YEAH i mean he who has not credit card swiped
a friend cast the first, stone like never.

Speaker 1 (01:05:09):
Done, really this hand does not need to go on
anybody's ass but my.

Speaker 2 (01:05:14):
Own first of, ALL i think you're cutting yourself. Off it.
DOES i have so many, questions but we'll move on
to the. Content, uh you as, Right Christian. Wilkins, yeah
we can say that without getting. Demonetized Christian wilkins cut
by The raiders after signing the huge deal two off seasons,

(01:05:34):
ago only made it one year, there and then we
get the report THAT i don't think we've heard that
who what the teammate, was or who the teammate, was
have We but it was just that he was he
crossed he see.

Speaker 1 (01:05:50):
THAT i mean that was the obvious one That.

Speaker 2 (01:05:52):
Max, yeah So Christian wilkins apparently kissed the teammate on
the head against you, know it made the teammate uncomfortable
so much so that he went to NFL hr tattled
to the coaches like it's junior.

Speaker 1 (01:06:08):
High and that's What i'm, thinking because, like who else
has that leverage and power in The raiders to give?

Speaker 2 (01:06:14):
Up he's a, legit yeah. TACKLE i mean he would
slide in very nicely next To, osa you right next
to O Diggi zua he would like to slide into
a lot of, things but apparently which might be make
him a better fit for y'all In San.

Speaker 1 (01:06:29):
Francisco we are we are comfortable in our.

Speaker 2 (01:06:36):
Well, No i'm not even gonna go. There it sounds
like you. Did you're comfortable in your.

Speaker 1 (01:06:42):
Culture we a we embrace OUR lgbtq, community.

Speaker 2 (01:06:49):
Have a have y'all had an openly gay player on
the roster like The. Cowboys not that there's anything wrong with, Them, no, okay,
OKAY i would JUST i just was hoping the FORMER
Sec Defensive player of The year there would be more
than a footnote in. History he Is Michael Sam, no,
well the cowboy is uh unless unless you kiss, teammates

(01:07:10):
everything else will Take Greg, hardy throw your girl friend
on the pilot. Forehead see that's what the whole story
is weird to. Me but also we do have some
evidence Of Christian wilkins being a little handsy with dudes
on the football.

Speaker 1 (01:07:27):
Field lg do you have these. Clips he's got a
Little Dwight howard in.

Speaker 2 (01:07:31):
Them, yeah, potentially EVEN i Mean dwight wasn't doing it
on the court.

Speaker 1 (01:07:36):
Though yeah he, did he did it on the, court
not like, this oh he. WAS i don't think you
need to watch some tape extend it.

Speaker 2 (01:07:48):
So you can see. It in there Line Christian wilkins
is at the bottom wound.

Speaker 1 (01:07:55):
That one because we didn't get.

Speaker 2 (01:07:57):
There you See wilkins hand and with a handful Of
Josh allen's manhood down. There And alan has openly spoke
about this multiple. Times he's Referenced wilkins as his least favorite.

Speaker 1 (01:08:13):
PLAYER i, mean as in the words Of, romanowski you,
know when you're in the, pile anything.

Speaker 2 (01:08:18):
Goes yeah, See AND i think that probably worked more
In romanowski's day than it. Did but it's not just
in the. Pros wilkins had some of it At clemson,
too because we also had this clip where he straight
credit card swiped a guy in college little old.

Speaker 1 (01:08:43):
Check.

Speaker 2 (01:08:43):
Yeah. Yeah so there are, Science there are science that
this potentially was probably known all. ALONG i still think
in the league in THE, nfl where dudes like him
to take up space on the defensive line are so.
Rare he's going to get a second chance and he's

(01:09:07):
going to be AN mba player for.

Speaker 1 (01:09:08):
Somebody he's that guy that we all played football with
that would run around naked and bully people and just be,
like just take it too.

Speaker 2 (01:09:17):
Far, Well Charles haley when he would set his dong
on people's shoulders as they're doing interviews with the. Media but,
also The cowboys don't win The Super bowls Without Charles,
haley SO i think you, Also Charles. Haley he was
at The. Cowboys he was at The cowboys opening scrimmage

(01:09:39):
this past. Weekend he's, saying you, Know Charlotte, Jones jerry's.
Daughter he's led the crowd in a rendition Of Happy
birthday to, her and then at the end he's, like,
also she's very, attractive very good. Looking. It oh but
so So i'll find that clip for next. Week so.
Awkward but, YEAH i, look AM i Hoping jerry picks

(01:10:03):
up the phone OR i guess Not, jerry because we
Hear Steven jerry doesn't talk to. Agents steven. DOES i
would still Take Christian wilkins in a.

Speaker 1 (01:10:10):
Heartbeat when you're an eighty year old, man you just
don't you don't want to make a lot of, decisions you,
know because you're eighty you, know, yeah, drip eighty years.

Speaker 2 (01:10:23):
Old are you suggesting that having an eighty year old
general manager is a bad. Thing that's a bad. Thing,
yeah that's a bad. Thing, actually the MORE i think.

Speaker 1 (01:10:32):
About, it you just want some, young young meat in.

Speaker 2 (01:10:34):
There. Yeah the only Other COWBOY i Have Kayln, carson
who actually started five games for him last year as a.
Rookie he hyper extended his. Knee so not only is
the offensive line being thinned out by injury so far in,
camp now the cornerback position you've Seen Digs bland Now

(01:10:55):
carson also revel the rookie that hasn't been on the
field yet because he was injured At North. Carolina so,
there injuries are starting to show up and CAN i.

Speaker 1 (01:11:06):
Won't go a y'all's, route As cowboy fan did me
last year whenever The niners started going, Down.

Speaker 2 (01:11:14):
I'm not Gonna i'm not gonna sit there and pile
ON i, HOPE i don't.

Speaker 1 (01:11:18):
WANT i don't wish injury on. Anybody i'm of.

Speaker 2 (01:11:21):
The thought THAT I i don't. WISH i would never
agree on.

Speaker 1 (01:11:25):
ANYBODY i would never root for The.

Speaker 2 (01:11:27):
Niners BUT i think it would be a lot cooler
If dallas ever could get back to AN nfc championship
game for the first time since ninety. Six it would
be really cool if it was with an old traditional
LIKE i don't want to see them play The buccaneers
in AN nfc championship.

Speaker 1 (01:11:45):
GAME i MEAN i will take it BECAUSE i want
to see them. There But washington with the rookie, quarterback
even though how amazing he was last.

Speaker 2 (01:11:51):
Year, yeah let's get into that because we got to
get to our main segment. Tonight we've got THE Nfc
east saved it for, last and my first note on,
it The cowboys are praying for two sophomore. Slumps One
Jaden daniels that you mentioned after Leading washington to THE
Nfc Championship game last year as a, rookie making The

(01:12:13):
cowboys now THE nfc team that has gone the longest
before playing in the championship. Game that's the first sophomore.

Speaker 1 (01:12:22):
Slump not THE nfc, team THE afc team as.

Speaker 2 (01:12:25):
Well is? It, No, No, No No. Browns The browns have
never played in A afc championship game since coming back
as The. Browns The browns are still the third of THE.
Nfl don't take that away from, me, Bitches you better
not do. It come on To Sean.

Speaker 1 (01:12:42):
Watson i'll get you all the massage therapists.

Speaker 2 (01:12:45):
You wont, man it's gonna Be chador or Or Joe. Flacco,
no the sophomore Slumps Jaden, daniels the obvious, One Saquon
barkley sophomore slump as in second year In, philadelphia because
if if neither of those guys.

Speaker 1 (01:13:01):
Saw hoping one race in the other.

Speaker 2 (01:13:05):
Hand So i'll say, This i'll say this The. Saquon
we've seen a lot of guys struggle at quarterback their
second year in the. League so The jaden, ONE i
think that ONE rg three C. J stroud last year
with The. Texans of, course there are other factors that
go into, that BUT i think The commanders going from

(01:13:27):
what was? It are we starting with the no, no,
no we're starting with The, eagles but The commanders going
from what were they a six win? Team to uh
or four? Win they were four and thirteen two years,
ago Get jade And daniels and go twelve and.

Speaker 1 (01:13:44):
Five that's What that's what a quarterback can do for, you.

Speaker 2 (01:13:46):
Man but also a quarterback now that has a year
of film in THE nfl that where everyone is scheming
him differently than they did last. Year so that's like C.
J stroud last year with The texans all the Interception.
SPIKE i think there's a potential there's a chance we
see that With jayden The saquon sophomore. Slump listen to this.

(01:14:08):
Fact last Year saquon had four hundred and thirty six.
Carries and if that sounds like a, lot it's because it.

Speaker 1 (01:14:17):
Is, dude that is hardly like you don't see a
running back get three hundred.

Speaker 2 (01:14:21):
Carries so the last, time the four hundred and thirty
six carries is tied With DeMarco murray in twenty and
fourteen for the most carries by a running back this.

Speaker 1 (01:14:34):
Century oh, my that's a.

Speaker 2 (01:14:37):
Lot and they got and it, worked they got they
got The Super. Bowl, Man but is, heavy heavy.

Speaker 1 (01:14:46):
Workload you'd think that'd be Like Ricky williams and his
like rookie, year rookie or sophomore year when he was
just that's all The. Dolphins the offense was was handed
To ricky or Any Derrick henry year And titans history,
like that's. Crazy it's. Crazy is also because he stayed.

Speaker 2 (01:15:05):
Healthy you got to remember too that twenty fourteen De marco,
year are we kind of carries his catches as? Well
that just carries just carries out of the backfield, exactly not,
touches not, touches just, carries.

Speaker 1 (01:15:16):
And he probably would have had like sixty catches.

Speaker 2 (01:15:18):
Exactly so the twenty Fourteen De marco, year that was
the year where The cowboys knew they weren't going to
re sign, him they were going to let him, walk
so he just break. Them he ends up rushing for
eighteen hundred forty five yards and thirteen, touchdowns averages one
hundred and fifteen a, game the only year in his

(01:15:39):
entire career where he averaged more than one hundred yards
a game rushing The. Cowboys so like that was a
year Where dallas intentionally overworked. Him, yeah that's What saquan
did last year In. Philly so a guy with as
good as he, is a guy with injury history when
he was with the a guy who just put in

(01:16:03):
tied for the most carries this century in THE. Nfl
for for your, crowd for your fantasy football, CROWD i
would think those are those are numbers that raise red
flags On saquon's the only THING i could see fantasy
value BECAUSE i Don't you're not going to see what
he did last year this, Year you're just not gonna see,
it but he. Is he is a freaking.

Speaker 1 (01:16:24):
Nature BUT i think they did ADD Aj, dillon which
he's a solid running, back but they even have him
third on the depth. Chart they have Will shipley IF
i can interest you in.

Speaker 2 (01:16:36):
That oh, yeah The clemson. Kids he got a little
bit of run with him last. Year, yeah it's your
token white running.

Speaker 1 (01:16:42):
BACK i think they're gonna you're gonna see they're gonna
try to be, tricky but of course every defensive coordinator
is going to be hipped to the thing to where it's, like,
oh they're gonna do a lot more play action passes
and a lot more you, know passing TO aj And
davante instead of just running the ball because they were run.
First obviously with that many, carries they're a run first, team.

Speaker 2 (01:17:05):
Which is weird because do you remember who their offensive
coordinator was last? Year Former cowboys Quarterback Kellen, moore who
now is head coach of The. Saints so is that?

Speaker 1 (01:17:17):
Beautiful you just lose your, job like he goes straight
there and just catch you As Super bowl.

Speaker 2 (01:17:22):
And then get a head coaching. Job it's almost like
the grass is greener outside Of Jerry. Land jerry. WORLD
i you mentioned The eagles offense though new offensive, coordinator similar,
scheme but new voice in the room for all these.
Guys Kevin Petuo pattillo the new offensive, coordinator a guy

(01:17:44):
that's been there in the, building but now you, know
has a much more important. ROLE i just all of
all of that being said is WHY i think The
eagles offense takes a step.

Speaker 1 (01:17:57):
Back of, course, man they can like to keep up
that rate what they did last, year like not with
the like divisions that they go against this.

Speaker 2 (01:18:07):
Year so They so The eagles schedule had it the
difficulty increased more than any other team in the.

Speaker 1 (01:18:15):
League y'all had the easy delta.

Speaker 2 (01:18:18):
Between easiest last year and what it is this.

Speaker 1 (01:18:21):
Year that was like the vice. Versa we had the,
Hardest like we had the hardest schedule as The niners last,
year and it showed with all the injuries and the
brutality and like everybody you, know and it's everybody's got
to change it. Up and it's like you play that
you got to play the teams that are in front of,
you and this year you better change it up because

(01:18:41):
you cannot sit there and just do bruiser ball on.

Speaker 2 (01:18:45):
Them, YEAH i think that's where you, know obviously the
mileage On saquon from last, year plus Replacing kellen More,
no it sounds like it's, like, yeah it's. You literally
the next thing you're gonna say is more of these
teams just need to establish the run.

Speaker 1 (01:19:05):
Early that's the real key to run.

Speaker 2 (01:19:07):
Straight nineteen, eighties early NINETIES Nfl no replacing the miles
On saquon from last, year Replacing Kellen moore's offensive. Coordinator
and then they also they still Have Vic, fangio who
is a mastermind defensive, coordinator but elite wide, receivers elite wide,
receiver Elite Galet. Hurts whatever you think of, him he's

(01:19:29):
still a top ten.

Speaker 1 (01:19:30):
Quarterback goddard still one of the best out.

Speaker 2 (01:19:34):
There but they did have eight fairly ranging in levels of,
importance eight members that were rotational pieces of that defense that.
Left what was It Darius slay, RELEASED. Cj, Gardner johnson,
Traded Vonte maddox went To.

Speaker 1 (01:19:50):
Detroit sweat on the, line, Right so you've it's going
TO i think they lost. ANOTHER i think they lost
their they still have Hard. Grave, No, no he's gone
to AND i think they lost some death in the
defensive end as.

Speaker 2 (01:20:06):
Well they've drafted really well just because they Draft georgia
guys on the defensive side of the, ball and they're.
Popping but there is there's a lot of. Turnover there's
a new voice leading the. OFFENSE i think there, is
and we talked to we teased it a little. Bit
as we've talked about the other, divisions there is room

(01:20:29):
for The eagles to take a slight step back and
leave the door open For washington to win this division
Or dallas if every everything goes, well which we'll talk
about in a.

Speaker 1 (01:20:40):
Minute BUT i The.

Speaker 2 (01:20:42):
Eagles aren't as scary to me as they were as
they have. Been so what is the Over so let's
Start vegas. Predictions thanks for reminding. Me for the whole,
Division eagles eleven and a, half it's a, lot it's a.

Speaker 1 (01:20:57):
LOT i think they went. ELEVEN i might have to
go under on.

Speaker 2 (01:21:02):
That about this, Number commanders nine and a.

Speaker 1 (01:21:04):
Half that's, ridiculous that's. No and we'll get into.

Speaker 2 (01:21:09):
That cowboys seven and a half about, Right, GIANTS i don't.
Disagree giants five and a. Half so just looking just
looking at, it, YEAH i completely. Agree just looking at
the division in and of. Itself it's interesting to me
there's a two game gap between every. Team eagles eleven

(01:21:30):
and a half and then a two game gap according
To vegas is. Huge the fact that they Have washington
nine and a.

Speaker 1 (01:21:36):
HALF i think this is the only division that we've
had a two game gaps between the top three.

Speaker 2 (01:21:42):
Teams absolutely, is absolutely. Is it's also the fact That
vegas says The cowboys are equally close to The giants
below them as they Are washington above, Them washington nine
and a, Half giants five and a, Half dallas right
in the. Middle that's seven and. Have vegas is telling
some really creating a really interesting portrait of what this,

(01:22:07):
division how they think it's going to. Go because those
are Wide, yeah, yeah that's those Are Mike leach offensive linemen.
Gaps were those are? Spread, yeah those are air raid
alignement gaps between What vegas is predicting.

Speaker 1 (01:22:23):

which MEANS lg.

Speaker 2 (01:26:44):
Will be the. One, Right, so, Uh, EAGLES lg has the.

Speaker 1 (01:26:49):
OVER i got winning. Eleven i'm right there with.

Speaker 2 (01:26:53):
YOU i think the. NUMBER i think the number is.

Speaker 1 (01:26:55):
Eleven, Man i'm these divisional the divisional games are going
to be.

Speaker 2 (01:26:59):
Insane, yeah like they're going to be geared up. Man
specifically The Eagles washington. Games so, Mentioned eagles had the
largest increase of scheduled difficulty of any. Team commanders were,
second because you know the how the you, know teams
line up play the same, divisions same divisions as the

(01:27:24):
rest of your division. Plays so the commander's second largest
increase in scheduled, difficulty you, know last year really carried
by you, Know Jaden daniels.

Speaker 1 (01:27:35):
Explosion always draft a rookie at the end of the, round, Gentlemen.

Speaker 2 (01:27:39):
So last Year commanders were fifth in the league in points,
scored which led the. Division eagles were. Seventh commanders were,
fifth but different than The. Eagles eagles had the second
best points allowed as a. Defense washington was. Eighteenth washington

(01:27:59):
wasn't even in the top half of the league when
it came to the given.

Speaker 1 (01:28:04):
Up they had a lot of holes And Jane daniels
had to do a lot of magic in his rookie.

Speaker 2 (01:28:09):
Year and you remember The Hell mary game where they
got to. Win you, know there were a lot of
late game from exactly. Exactly but you, know For washington
to actually mount a true challenge To, philly it's going
to it's going to start with improvement on the defensive.

(01:28:29):
Side beyond just the points given. Up they were third
most in THE, nfl tied for third most and yards
allowed per. Carry they almost allowed five yards a. Carry
it was four four point eight yards of carry last.
Year and so they to combat. That they Have Javon.

Speaker 1 (01:28:51):
Kinlaw they Took niners former first round pick and they're
hoping that he has a bounce. Back so there and
then they also Signed Von miller as a d edge
BUT i don't see him doing much for the. Run
But Darren. Payne didn't they draft is paying the draft

(01:29:12):
because they drafted a dtackle in the first two.

Speaker 2 (01:29:16):
ROUNDS i, believe let's, see, yeah because.

Speaker 1 (01:29:18):
They know, that then They Bobby wagner still won the
best to ever do. It he's strapping it.

Speaker 2 (01:29:25):
Up doesn't seem to be giving losing any steps anytime.
SOON i know their first pick was the offensive, tackle
but their second, pick second pick Was Trey, amos the
corner out Of old Miss. Okay, uh, yeah they, waited
they didn't Take.

Speaker 1 (01:29:42):
Maybe they just did it For Javon kinlang tried to
like because their defense was hot, garbage you, Know like
that's why fantasy, wise you don't necessarily go with the best.
Player you go with The you go with the player
with the worst defense because you know they're gonna have
to throw the.

Speaker 2 (01:30:01):
Ball that's in a great. Point that was exactly what
it was last year they. DID i mentioned first round
Pick Josh, connery, uh the offensive. TACKLE i guess give
him his full. Respect Josh Connerley junior was their first round,
pick also traded For Laramie tunsel from The, texans so
they shored up potentially the ends of their offensive. Line

(01:30:26):
Sam cosme though had the was it a cl tear In?
January so they still have him as. Out, yeah he's
gonna be.

Speaker 1 (01:30:34):
Out so his backup Is Andrew. Wileye they're also gonna
probably like switch him up With Chris paul not the
not the point. Guard but now that would be a.

Speaker 2 (01:30:45):
Story then we'd actually have something to talk.

Speaker 1 (01:30:47):
About but there's STILL i think they're Gonna eckler is
gonna be. Healthy he started out the, year uh not,
helped not completely. Healthy So Brian, robinson you got the
you got the, thunder and you got the.

Speaker 2 (01:30:59):
Lightning With, ECKLER i Think robinson is in a contract year. Too.
Ye contract year for running back usually means.

Speaker 1 (01:31:07):
And is his rookie, year career rookie. Contract so he
is a touchdown. Vulture so you got Scary terry trying
to get his money debo they're gonna. Do deebo is
not the best route. Runner he'll get you that yak
AND i love me some. Debo he will always forever
be in the heart of the forty nine. Nation he

(01:31:28):
will get you that nasty As pop would like to.
Say but he is a short yardage. Man he's not
gonna be sitting there running across over the. Top he's
gonna be running across the. Middle he's gonna be a swing,
pass which is like a version of the. Run he
might even go there and line up behind, them but
LIKE i, see you, know it's gonna be quick releases
and then hopefully play action once they establish the. Run

(01:31:52):
then you got no one better than McLaurin running over
the top catching deep.

Speaker 2 (01:31:58):
Balls, yeah but we have seen that one time in camp,
yet because Scary terry is Still.

Speaker 1 (01:32:04):
Yeah he wants his, money AS i, mean he wants that. Money,
okay let me ask you.

Speaker 2 (01:32:09):
This would you you got to give number one?

Speaker 1 (01:32:12):
Money you have?

Speaker 2 (01:32:12):
To of, course of COURSE i. WAS i was about
to look. UP i would give wide.

Speaker 1 (01:32:17):
Receiver i'd give him in The i'd be, like, look
we're not going to give you the twenty five because
that's going to break. Us but we can give you
a lot of, incentives you, know with the long, ball
Because Jane daniels has a great deep ball, game and
then we'll pay.

Speaker 2 (01:32:35):
You and looking at these number three twenty three, mil
you're not getting in for. That that's that's what he's
currently on.

Speaker 1 (01:32:44):
Now, ooh little little slow jams coming in.

Speaker 2 (01:32:47):
THERE i you, know that's that's Like Nico collins. Money.
Scary terry wants a J Brown ama and Raw Tyreek
hill kind of. Money he wants at least thirty.

Speaker 1 (01:32:59):
He wants Thirty, yeah, okay and that's your so looking at,
THAT i thought it was twenty five because like it's,
so it's thirty five years OF.

Speaker 2 (01:33:07):
CDs the, Number, yeah AND cd is. Third so the
number Is Jamar chase at forty forty and a, Quarter
Justin jefferson thirty, FIVE cd thirty. Four those are your
top three and THEN Dk metcalf thirty. Three Garrett wilson
with the new, Extension.

Speaker 1 (01:33:26):
Oh he wants at LEAST dk. Money, well and.

Speaker 2 (01:33:29):
He Wants he Saw Garrett wilson get extended for thirty
two and a. Half, yeah AND i think he's been
more productive Than Garrett wilson.

Speaker 1 (01:33:36):
And they and he's, established SO i think he wons thirty.

Speaker 2 (01:33:39):
Five he WANTS cd. Money he wants thirty four a year,
minimum thirty five to BEAT.

Speaker 1 (01:33:43):
Cd.

Speaker 2 (01:33:44):
Yeah and the if you're the, commanders, honestly what's what
are you waiting? FOR i don't.

Speaker 1 (01:33:49):
Know, man Like debo gave him a friendly.

Speaker 2 (01:33:52):
Contract, yeah he's debo is only on twenty a shade
under twenty four.

Speaker 1 (01:33:57):
MILLION i, mean Zach, ertz he's getting, older so you're
gonna have to target a tight end in the draft
OR i don't see him going out for a. Trade
so THAT'S i, MEAN i.

Speaker 2 (01:34:09):
DON'T i don't know what they're holding up on right.

Speaker 1 (01:34:12):
Exactly it is because they have to build a new.
Stadium they're just trying to be cheap on the.

Speaker 2 (01:34:16):
PLAYERS i mean, again you saw that if it gets,
built if they don't change. Them but you saw the
you saw the connection your rookie quarterback had last year with.
Him McLaren's only. Scary terry's only twenty. FIVE i just
saw it twenty five or twenty. Six, yeah what are
you waiting? On what is he's like the? Best like

(01:34:37):
name a better deep ball threat than? Him George. Pickens,
No i'm. Kidding that's a. Joke that's A.

Speaker 1 (01:34:47):
Gallup who was actually on The redskins this.

Speaker 2 (01:34:49):
Year, OH i forgot a, commander. Sir they still haven't
approved this new. Stadium god, NO i, Yeah gallup being
there is pretty funny to me, too.

Speaker 1 (01:35:02):
Because a, resurgeons.

Speaker 2 (01:35:03):
You, Know Dan quinn dq leading them to THAT Nfc
championship game last. Year, yeah The. COMMANDERS i don't, know, Man,
like it feels like it feels like the top tier
of this division is not going to be what it
was last. Year so as A cowboy, FANS i think

(01:35:24):
that leaves you more hope than you should have based
on Anything dallas has, done purely just based On philly And.
WASHINGTON i just don't see taking half a step.

Speaker 1 (01:35:36):
Back do you know when you see that guy and you're,
like it's like Watching Lamar. Jackson we all Expected lamar
to take that step. BACK i don't see, that like
we obviously he, didn't you, Know AND i don't really
see that In Jane. DANIELS i think he's way better THAN. Cj,

(01:35:57):
Stroud really you. THINK i think his deep ball is
one of the best in the.

Speaker 2 (01:36:03):
LEAGUE i got. Him herbert when the last time a
rookie quarterback made you feel like? That like the last.

Speaker 1 (01:36:12):
Time a rookie quarterback made me feel like? That, YEAH
i would, Say, WELL i Mean lamar ran it mostly
his first. Year it would be close TO i MEAN
rg three was a, runner but he had an amazing rookie.
Year it would have to Be burrow like with the,
like but without like it's like a, burrow it's a mixture.
Burrow like maybe MAYBE rg three did have some good

(01:36:35):
passing yards, before like because he got hurt his second.
Year but the deep ball threat with the, legs with the,
speed like he's kind of the whole. Package, man you
know What i'm. Saying so it's.

Speaker 2 (01:36:51):
Like Has jackson with a better?

Speaker 1 (01:36:54):
Passing oh, absolutely his passing would be like you ould
Put lamar like ten In jadeen at, two you.

Speaker 2 (01:37:04):
Know, yeah so not that long. Ago back in twenty,
Twenty Justin herbert set the rookie passing record with thirty.
One he fell thirty eight yards short Of Andrew luck's yardage.
Number another great rookie season from a, Quarterback Drew, LOOK
i forgot about. It but you, know outside of those

(01:37:27):
two guys in the last five, YEARS i, mean you've
got to go all the way back to Like Cam
newton in twenty. Eleven you, KNOW. Cj stroud twenty twenty
three was a great. Year he set the record for
HIGHEST qbr in a playoff game ever by a rookie. Quarterback,
yeah but even you, know, Statistically jaden dwarfs THAT rg.

Speaker 1 (01:37:46):
Three he went further back in twenty.

Speaker 2 (01:37:48):
Twelve well, STATISTICALLY i mean from the regular season, numbers
but they're really you, know and then you're getting back
to Like dak And Russell.

Speaker 1 (01:37:57):
Wilson, yeah Well dak that was the run offense with the,
zeke with that line that was probably the best ever.

Speaker 2 (01:38:05):
Built, yeah and third choice Behind romo And Kellen. Moore.

Speaker 1 (01:38:10):
Yeah now coaching of The, Saints.

Speaker 2 (01:38:12):
YEAH I i think if you're if you're telling me
there's less of a Chance Jayden daniels has a sophomore
slump than anyone we've seen in my. Lifetime, sure LIKE
i agree with, that but, still like Even Dan, marino
who had an amazing rookie, year you still took a

(01:38:34):
slight step back his second year and then fully launched his.

Speaker 1 (01:38:37):
Career but the fact that day everybody knows a sophomore,
slump the fact that they drafted the line lineman their
first the first pick, overall.

Speaker 2 (01:38:48):
Granted it was it was the back end of the first.

Speaker 1 (01:38:51):
Round, yeah of, course twenty ninth or whatever they went.
To THAT nfc championship that y'all don't really know, about it.

Speaker 2 (01:38:59):
Still happened in my. LIFETIME i vaguely remember what it
feels LIKE i vaguely remember being paid by my uncle
a dollar a quarter IF i didn't say a. Word,
yeah very much, so, DUDE i WAS i was nine years, Old, like,
yeah of, course shut your. Mouth, yeah it's been a while.

(01:39:22):
Now that, number The vegas number at nine and a
half for a team that won twelve games last year
with a rookie. Quarterback, Yeah vegas thinks they take a step,
back and a significant step, back of.

Speaker 1 (01:39:37):
COURSE i mean they won. TWELVE i take off. Two
i'd take off three immediately because of the, people the
divisions they have to, play. Yep and then you're already
at the.

Speaker 2 (01:39:48):
Under, yeah you're already at. Nine.

Speaker 1 (01:39:52):
YEAH i Think i'm probably going under for this whole
this whole. Division, LIKE i don't see Uh eagles getting that.
MUCH i don't SEE i think The washington it's either
gonna they're either gonna be over at ten or they're
gonna be under at. Nine that's a.

Speaker 2 (01:40:13):
Point that's a coin. Flip, YEAH i THINK i Think
vegas has nailed. That that number at, nine that's a coin.
FLIP i think they're over just BECAUSE i think they
split With philly and then take care of.

Speaker 1 (01:40:24):
The game and Like philly's defense is just like, man
they had to give up so.

Speaker 2 (01:40:31):
Much there's a lot of replacement on That eagles on
the defensive side of the. Ball, yeah a lot of new,
FACES i.

Speaker 1 (01:40:38):
Think and then we saw what happened When eagles went
to the Super bowl and then all of a sudden
the next year won six, games.

Speaker 2 (01:40:45):
Right and that was also when they replaced their offensive
and defensive. Coordinator now they still Got Vic, fangio but
they are Replacing Kellen so let's.

Speaker 1 (01:40:53):
See let's see if he the coach starts With Spagnola
syrie the movie starts yelling out of his fans.

Speaker 2 (01:41:00):
Again, yeah the oh he, WILL i don't think. HE'LL
i don't think he'll, change nor should. He it's it's
the Most philadelphia thing. Ever he's he's like a man
and him and Big dom head of security. There. YEAH
I i think The commanders pushed The. Eagles, Yeah I'm

(01:41:21):
i've been saying the last couple of, WEEKS i Think
washington wins the. Division after looking at it, NOW I i.
DON'T i don't think they W i Think philly still wins.
It BUT i think IT'S i think it's a toss up.

Speaker 1 (01:41:31):
Game that is a coin, flip and it's only gonna
be in, like let's see if we got the magic
game at the end of the end of The oh.

Speaker 2 (01:41:39):
Yeah, yeah look up their last look up their last.
Game AS i shift Into, cowboys woll gotta gotta get
to that, chair, settle get your, butt cheeks on. Cleaned,
NO i mean we're gonna talk plenty of. Cowboys you
know you're gonna get tired of Hearing cowboys notes throughout
the season because we're gonna do it every. Episode but, oh,
buddy all final game of the.

Speaker 1 (01:42:00):
Season guess with the final three, Games So.

Speaker 2 (01:42:05):
Dallas washington has got to be one of. Them Philly
washington's got to be the.

Speaker 1 (01:42:11):
Other Philly Dallas philly.

Speaker 2 (01:42:14):
AGAIN i love it when they do. That you, dirty
you dirty birds, man that. Dude the end of the
year is going to be crazy for THE.

Speaker 1 (01:42:24):
Nfc, okay say that.

Speaker 2 (01:42:25):
One It's, philly The dallas Than philly and they and
in the.

Speaker 1 (01:42:31):
Link, WOW.

Speaker 2 (01:42:35):
I think that.

Speaker 1 (01:42:37):
It all comes down to those three. Games, yeah no, Question,
no we're not talking About.

Speaker 2 (01:42:42):
Dallas we're talking.

Speaker 1 (01:42:42):
About philly And, washington by the, way but Not.

Speaker 2 (01:42:44):
Dallas all, right let's let's get To. Dallas let's talk about,
it because.

Speaker 1 (01:42:49):
It Does Za prescott.

Speaker 2 (01:42:51):
The, uh the question of Whether dallas is closer to
That Philly washington grouping pairing or closer of the cellar
Dwellers New. York it doesn't surprise me That vegas, says,
eh they're right in the. Middle they're they're two games
better than The, giants but they're two games worse Than. Washington, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:43:14):
You can't sit at the cool, table but we're not
going to put you with the special needs.

Speaker 2 (01:43:19):
Kids so the signs of any signs of, HOPE i
would say start with just the weapons they have on. Offense,
obviously HAVING cd And pickings makes you a top five
wide receiver pairing in the. League you've got a top
ten tight end who you've now committed, to locked up

(01:43:41):
at a decent, price putting him a seventh paid In. Ferguson,
Yeah ferguson's top nine or ten or, seven right where
he slotted money. WISE i, mean you look at the
rest of the top paid tight. ENDS i don't think there's.

Speaker 1 (01:43:55):
A down year last.

Speaker 2 (01:43:56):
Year so he's he just going To, well he was,
hurt but he was a everybody's. Hurt he was a pro,
bowler although pro bowlers are fake and, fraud but he.

Speaker 1 (01:44:05):
Was he was he took someone's.

Speaker 2 (01:44:07):
Slot no his uh he wasn't a replacement pro bowler
his his FIRST yearoie. Year, yeah, no he was. Legit
he's uh, so just the names right After. Ferguson would
you rather Have Friar muth Or ferguson.

Speaker 1 (01:44:24):
Really sure, hands get you that short yardage, man get
you some yak and he can. Block, yeah he's. Nasty
fire move's. Nasty he's a touchdown machine, too by the,
way you can, like, basically how many touchdowns you have last?

Speaker 2 (01:44:40):
Year? Yeah, No Friar moose's best year is worse Than
ferguson's first year in the. League his most he's had IN.
Nec he had seven last. Year, yeah seven.

Speaker 1 (01:44:51):
Touchdowns but He's I'm ferguson.

Speaker 2 (01:44:54):
Half, well he was hurt last. Year But ferguson's first
year it was, SEVEN i believe off the top of my. Head,
okay but the catches and Yardage ferguson dwarfs him.

Speaker 1 (01:45:07):
Well of, course because Because dak threw it fifty times a.

Speaker 2 (01:45:10):
Game, yeah but that's what.

Speaker 1 (01:45:13):
That's that's that's The Dallas cowboys strategy win in, doubt
just throw the.

Speaker 2 (01:45:17):
Ball, so Uh ferguson's direct numbers Compat FANTASY. Qb, okay
honestly they're they're damn near the same, statistically like actually
like looking at And Friar muth.

Speaker 1 (01:45:30):
Is a year.

Speaker 2 (01:45:33):
Older, yeah and it Was ferguson's second. Year his first,
year he was STILL.

Speaker 1 (01:45:39):
I think is a little bit lightly more dependable in my.

Speaker 2 (01:45:43):
Opinion, Uh john new Smith, man he was so hot
at the end of the year he Decided Fantasy championships
and he but he's a smaller tight end and he's
definitely not a.

Speaker 1 (01:45:57):
Blocker so, man.

Speaker 2 (01:46:01):
So His smith's last year is the only year he's
ever been better Than. Ferguson Er, Franks, yeah that's HOW
i say. THAT i think the if The Friar muth, one,
sure so he's eighth, best not, Seventh BUT i mean
there's everyone. Else, uh Well kittle was number one, obviously

(01:46:22):
the well that was just contractually numbers. Wise who what
did you, say number? Ten, yeah so, one, two, three
this is great content counting one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
Ten Dalton Schultz, okay, yeah who we talked about, before.

Speaker 1 (01:46:45):
Still got him as number ten in my, book, BECAISE
i KNOW i have number, NINE i Have John. Who
i'll Put John who at number.

Speaker 2 (01:46:51):
Ten, YEAH i. Uh the hope for The cowboys is
purely on the passing weapons.

Speaker 1 (01:47:00):
They Have, Pickens pickens and.

Speaker 2 (01:47:01):
PICKING Cd again back to where we, were top five
wide receiver pairing in the, league fergus in a top
ten tight. End you got no running back, though no proven.

Speaker 1 (01:47:11):
Running vonte And Miles sanders are you're headlining running.

Speaker 2 (01:47:15):
Back one of those two dudes won't make the team
out of training camp one.

Speaker 1 (01:47:19):
And and it's, no that's gonna be your one and. Two,
NOW i think JUST i think one of those the
same way when we were talking About Ronald, Jones Jordan
blue coming, Back Jaden blue will.

Speaker 2 (01:47:30):
Be he's gonna be the split guy Between Miles sanders
and Uh Javonte williams are fighting for that part of the.

Speaker 1 (01:47:41):
Platoons Ye ut he was. Good oh so y'all Drafted? Blue,
yeah there was a fifth round, pick so he didn't
get any because, like wasn't there like three running backs
that got injured FOR ut last. Year y'all were like
on your damn near four strings Running.

Speaker 2 (01:48:00):
Yeah and he was he would have. Been he would
started the season as fourth string and then slid into
Second oh wow as the.

Speaker 1 (01:48:07):
Injuries yeah We blue Can hey my, Boy, blue let's see.

Speaker 2 (01:48:12):
What you can. Do potentially a game changing. Weapon but
fumbled a lot At, texas which means probably going to
fumble a lot in THE, nfl which.

Speaker 1 (01:48:20):
Would be, quickly, bigger, faster, stronger exactly.

Speaker 2 (01:48:23):
Quickly quickly seclude you to the. Bench the outside of
the you, know the running back game as we're talking,
about or the running back situation as we're talking, about
how bad it is this. Year last, year they barely
averaged one hundred yards a. Game they were twenty seventh
in the.

Speaker 1 (01:48:42):
League and the only reason why they got those numbers was.

Speaker 2 (01:48:45):
Late, whenever when when ric o'dowdell just started started, to,
yeah pop off at.

Speaker 1 (01:48:51):
Games he was, like, Oh i'm a running.

Speaker 2 (01:48:52):
Back but it was also After jerry quit making McCarthy Play. Zeke,
yeah once they finally got read Of zeke literally. Cutting,
basically that's when you got that's when you start to
See rico dowdele you, know finally come. On and that
that saved them from being even closer to dead last
in the league and running the. Ball so as much

(01:49:15):
as the running game on offense is a, problem it
was even worse on the defensive side of the. Ball
they gave up one hundred and thirty seven yards a
game on the. Ground oh my, god that's twenty ninth
in THE. Nfl and SO i think The cowboys season
can very, neatly cleanly be summed. Up if they run

(01:49:37):
the ball better and if they stop the run, better
they're going to be a better. Team it really is that,
simple because they got better at every other position on
the entire, roster every single other.

Speaker 1 (01:49:48):
POSITION i bet y'all wish y'all had the draft. Pick
WHEREFORE i wish you had the draft pick? Before when
got Mikeel. Williams that, Guy, yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:49:59):
He's made a run. STOP i, mean he's gonna be
a have. You he's going to live in the.

Speaker 1 (01:50:02):
Backfield, no he's he can't go through the, backfield but
he is a he's a hole, plugger and The dallas.

Speaker 2 (01:50:12):
Need dallas has got the. Ends that's not the. Defense
stopping the run for them is all, About Like Osa
diggizo was, great but he's a pass rushing defensive. Tackle
they don't have anybody that fills space in the middle
of the defensive. Line, yeah that's their. Problem and the
thing is when you start doing, that you start to
do like as A, rockery the guy that Drafted.

Speaker 1 (01:50:34):
You start tiring the defense. Down and then when you
have a pass first and a pass happy, offense you
go three and out real. Quick and that's the recipe
for disaster of a, game to where they just control
the clock and then they'll just sit there and run
it down your, throat make play, actions throw the deep,

(01:50:54):
ball and all of a sudden you got to sit
there and just keep throwing the ball because you're down
by two. Scores so it's this it's gonna be the
same recipe as last.

Speaker 2 (01:51:05):
Year, yeah that's WHERE i don't see you, Know I'm
i'm leaning under with. YOU i, mean seven and a
half Of. Schottenheimer they want they want them Some. March
brand new head, coach first time, ever brand new offensive,
coordinator brand new defensive. Coordinator i'm MORE i like both The.

(01:51:25):
HIGHERS i Like fluse And clayton as the two, coordinators
but they're also first year In. Dallas we'll see how
that transition goes under a first time head coach in
his first. Year all of the, recipe all of the
ingredients in front of me suggest it's a seven and ten. Team,

(01:51:47):
Yeah i'm looking at their.

Speaker 1 (01:51:49):
Schedule they say they beat The viking and the Beat
New york. Twice there's two locked. In they get one
On philly Or.

Speaker 2 (01:52:00):
Washington three divisional, wins.

Speaker 1 (01:52:03):
But then you're Playing. Vikings chargers don't like, That lions
don't like The chiefs certainly don't like any of. That
go give you a win on The, raiders but they're
very surprising.

Speaker 2 (01:52:16):
You, no, no they embarrassed The. Cowboys, yeah On thanksgiving
couple of years.

Speaker 1 (01:52:20):
Ago, yeah Then, ARIZONA i don't see you win in. That,
BRONCOS i don't see you win in.

Speaker 2 (01:52:25):
That vegas doesn't see them winning either of. Those it's
not just you as a forty Nine ers fan saying.
That vegas says he.

Speaker 1 (01:52:33):
Don't win those. Games so here's a winnable, One. Panthers
so what are we up to?

Speaker 2 (01:52:37):
Now? Four, Yeah, jets, five.

Speaker 1 (01:52:40):
Not gonna win The, packers and then the last one
that's as possible is The. Bears AND i think The
bears got your number because they're playing at home. Again how?

Speaker 2 (01:52:52):
Many how many games Is dallas even favored on their
schedule five six at best if you Say, Chicago, yeah
and that's still a game and a half. Under What
vegas is saying it JUST.

Speaker 1 (01:53:10):
I, mean you Got, Atlanta BUT i Think. ATLANTA i
think they're gonna be a surprising team this. Year BUT
i will.

Speaker 2 (01:53:16):
SEE i WANT i want to have the blue, sunglasses eternal,
optimist Hope and what is.

Speaker 1 (01:53:26):
HAPPENING i got one of my best. Friends he is
but the Worst.

Speaker 2 (01:53:29):
Cowboys The cowboys nihilism is absolutely so ingrained in my
soul at this, point seven and a half feels like
that feels give me the under And i'm not even.

Speaker 1 (01:53:41):
Hesitating, yeah, yeah definitely the.

Speaker 2 (01:53:43):
Under and also the other, thing If, Dak dak's thirty
two years, old he just turned thirty, two they have
three more years before they can get out from underneath that. Contract,
Yeah dak, Knows i've got three more years as the
starting quarterback of The Dallas cowboys unless we do something
big in the playoffs and They.

Speaker 1 (01:54:02):
But here's the here's the thing For, hopeful here's the.
Upside but that's What i'm.

Speaker 2 (01:54:06):
Saying he's not gonna play a full season any of
these remaining three. Years he's under locked into contract before
they can get out of. It Joe milton is just
as likely to win games as the starting quarterback this
year As dak. Is as crazy as that, sounds but
here's the.

Speaker 1 (01:54:23):
Upside they could Be fantasy gold because they're just gonna
be throwing the.

Speaker 2 (01:54:27):
Ball, OH i think THEY'LL i think.

Speaker 1 (01:54:29):
Again so let me back to be a number three pick.

Speaker 2 (01:54:33):
Overall back to my Original cowboys.

Speaker 1 (01:54:36):
NOTE ppr league number.

Speaker 2 (01:54:37):
One Maybe George. PICKENS i have a really bad feeling
they're gonna go seven to. Ten But George pickens is
gonna have an eleven hundred twelve hundred yard receiving season
and they're not going to resign him because then he's
gonna get paid close to thirty million by some other
team on the market that needs a number one wide

(01:54:58):
receiver because The. Cowboys is that because The cowboys are
gonna have to throw the ball so. Much like you're,
SAYING i think both the receivers.

Speaker 1 (01:55:06):
Is five thousand, yards, sure.

Speaker 2 (01:55:09):
But they have they Have there's no. One there's no
one in the. Backfield it's the same going back to last.
Year if you Thought zeke And Rico daldel were there
were people still out there still saying it's our, year of,
course because It's, cowboys it's a.

Speaker 1 (01:55:24):
Calboy and then y'all get so mad when you.

Speaker 2 (01:55:28):
Lose hold, on stop getting.

Speaker 1 (01:55:30):
Mad you know it's gonna happen.

Speaker 2 (01:55:33):
When they go on a three game win.

Speaker 1 (01:55:35):
Streak, oh they over.

Speaker 2 (01:55:38):
The, giants when they win three out of four Between, Giants, Bears, Packers,
Jets panthers win four out of. Five, There i'm right back.
In i'm right back. In and that's the. Problem that's
WHY i got a good.

Speaker 1 (01:55:52):
Team you see What i'm. Saying, look and then they
scheduled them right as a group of.

Speaker 2 (01:55:56):
Course because they want to Get oh let's get let's
bring all The cowboys fans back, in and then.

Speaker 1 (01:56:01):
They crush your dreams right Before.

Speaker 2 (01:56:03):
Christmas, yeah trust, me you'll hear in two. Months in
two and a half, months you will hear me talk
about how GLAD i was THAT i was so wrong
about taking the under on seven and a half. Wins
after they win four out of five over that, stretch
only lost to The. Packers i'll, say, hey, Look packers
are a solid playoff.

Speaker 1 (01:56:23):
Team, yeah But pickens is he's the game Changing.

Speaker 2 (01:56:29):
Oh picking When pickens has one hundred and thirty against The,
panthers And i'm it was he was worth that third
round pick, NOW i uh, THIRD i know it's. Crazy
so they're the last two trades outside they traded For
Ken murphy and uh Kyer. Elam they've made some other,
trades but the last two meaningful trades they've, made they

(01:56:52):
gave up a fourth round pick For Trey. Lance do
you have do you want to take a guess on
Where Trey lance is right? Now? Oh he's? Starting oh
you know? It Okay, Chargers, yes So Trey. Lance, YEAH
i read the.

Speaker 1 (01:57:04):
Meme it's like half the nation is gonna find out
That Trey lance actually plays for The chargers.

Speaker 2 (01:57:09):
Tomorrow he's not even Like Heiniky. Taylor heinik is technically
their backup Unless Trey lance beats him. Out So cowboys gave.

Speaker 1 (01:57:16):
Up it does get me in my. Feels i'm gonna
see Uh John, Harbor Jim harball and yeah popping his
paths before the, game And i'm gonna be, like, oh, man.

Speaker 2 (01:57:27):
Well The cowboys gave up a fourth round pick for
a guy that right now is third string on someone
other team's depth. Chart and we got some gold on
and then they gave up a third round pick For George,
pickens who might overperform to the point where they can't
resign him after one year In. Dallas things are, great,
buddy things are. Great give me the under on the

(01:57:47):
seven of the. Half let's Talk giants real fast before
we get out of. Here, oh the Sweet.

Speaker 1 (01:57:54):
Giants why didn't THAT gm listen to his kid that
remember the hard, knocks, yep the pre hard. Knocks the kids,
said Draft Jayden. Daniels you'll regret this for the rest
of your life if you don't Draft Jane. Daniels his
this twelve year old tried to tell. Him try to tell,

(01:58:15):
him and if they Drafted Jaydon, daniels The giants would be.
Talked we would be talking about The giants competing in
the division because they do. Have the one best weapon
they have is the wide receiver FROM.

Speaker 2 (01:58:30):
Lsu, Yeah Malik, NEIGHBORS i WOULD i would argue he's
definitely their best, weapon but their best position. GROUP i
think they have the best defensive line of any team
in the.

Speaker 1 (01:58:42):
Division they, tried they tried to take it of old, school.

Speaker 2 (01:58:44):
You, Know, Dexter, Lawrence Kevon. Thibodeau Brian burns Drafted Abdul.
Carter what's second? Overall, yeah that might. BE i mean
that's top, three top five in the entire. League definitely
best in the.

Speaker 1 (01:58:57):
Day that's so we did when we Got, Bosa like
we just, said where our d line is gonna come,
back and that's gonna be our center.

Speaker 2 (01:59:03):
Point that's also one of The giants scare. Me In week,
two when The cowboys might be playing a, second third
string offensive tackle going up Against Abdua, carter it's not
even a. Given The cowboys Win Black. Game thirty two
year old dak with the.

Speaker 1 (01:59:21):
Gets hurt the second.

Speaker 2 (01:59:22):
Game i'm telling, you, Dude i'm telling YOU i think
THAT i.

Speaker 1 (01:59:25):
Don't wish injury on. Anybody, NO i.

Speaker 2 (01:59:27):
Don't five and a half for The giants is because
their quarterback room Is Tommy, DeVito H Jameis, Winston Russ,
wilson and Then jackson Dart. MAN i Wish, WINSTON i
wish let him, Start.

Speaker 1 (01:59:42):
Yes let him let him, cook as the W nba
likes to, say let him.

Speaker 2 (01:59:47):
Cook the problem, Is winston is going to be penciled
in as the backup no matter who the starter. Is
so it'll Be Russ wilson to start the, year and
then when he goes tits, up it'll Be Jackson dart
that they'll want to get in there instead Of. Jamis
they're not going to look because.

Speaker 1 (02:00:09):
They're clearly Missus jamis.

Speaker 2 (02:00:10):
Man come, on If Jackson dart turns out to be
their quarterback for a, DECADE i will be.

Speaker 1 (02:00:15):
Shocked he's like vulpe.

Speaker 2 (02:00:17):
Man he's, Like i'll give you an, arrow But i'll
hit you a home. Run jamis the creator of the
thirty thirty, season thirty, touchdowns thirty. INTERCEPTIONS i, mean he's
nothing but.

Speaker 1 (02:00:28):
Entertainment yeah in his pregame, speeches but they do have
a bright. Spot Tyron Tracy. Junior this second, year he
was a breakout running. Back that guy's got some. Moves
if he can take us take this step up there
with The Devin singletary backing them up and Then. Scataboo
we all know about Oh Camp scataboo during the during

(02:00:51):
the playoff.

Speaker 2 (02:00:52):
Game grit and. Determination let's see how far that can
get you in THE. Nfl because he didn't test well at.
All did you see the catch? Setting no?

Speaker 1 (02:01:00):
Miss it was like a tip drill. Catch he's going
to be a fan, favor like a little toe tapper
in the. Zone BUT i mean.

Speaker 2 (02:01:09):
He's gonna be as loved As Tommy.

Speaker 1 (02:01:10):
DeVito i mean Elite neighbors got nothing. Else darius can't
get off the, Team Darius, Slaton, no there's nothing to
Talk Jordan.

Speaker 2 (02:01:20):
Hume the best part about their, offense Besides Malik neighbors Is,
kofka their offensive. Coordinator the guy who finished second To
Kellen moore in the running for The saints head coaching.
Job he's going to be a head coach next.

Speaker 1 (02:01:34):
YEAR i mean he's he.

Speaker 2 (02:01:35):
Is he's kind of the you know hot name that
keeps getting finishing second in head coaching. Searches SO i
think it's only a matter of. Times he's got a good.

Speaker 1 (02:01:47):
Scheme SO i, THINK i mean With kataboo with his
little wiggle and his, jiggle you know he's GOT i,
mean he can get there and he's got, man he's.
Grimy he'll get that yak as.

Speaker 2 (02:01:58):
Well what are the odds to you That dallas finishes
Below New? York is it above fifty? Percent surely.

Speaker 1 (02:02:07):
Not it's a coin, flip you, think so it's a coin.
Flip SEE i don't think it's because you actually sold
me on the defensive. Line it's not.

Speaker 2 (02:02:15):
Good and they played in the.

Speaker 1 (02:02:17):
Line WHEN i just, said, hey pencil in two wins
for The. Cowboys Now i'm, like, no, no they might get.
Ran they might get ran through this. Division you know
What i'm.

Speaker 2 (02:02:29):
Saying they're not going to be able to Be they're
not going to be able to run the ball Against
Dexter lawrence inside And dak's going to be scrambling for
his life With Abdull carter And thibodeaux on the edges
And Brian.

Speaker 1 (02:02:39):
Burns it's this, young, young, hungry just beast men run
running like a four to six at two, EIGHTY i
got two.

Speaker 2 (02:02:50):
SIXTY i don't think The giants win six, games, THOUGH
i think they're still UNDER.

Speaker 1 (02:02:55):
I mean IF i, mean the only WAY i can
see it is if It russ gets any kind of
If jamis Or russ get any kind of their mojo,
back and they pull out some crazy. Wins but like once,
again but.

Speaker 2 (02:03:09):
If you're A giants, fan you don't even want to see.
That you don't want to See Russ wilson carry them
to eight wins and give them a mid teams draft.
Pick you don't want to see. That they'll Pull russ
by week ten if he's doing moderately.

Speaker 1 (02:03:24):
Decent ow's your ankle?

Speaker 2 (02:03:26):
Feeling, yeah. Exactly Put Jackson dart in, THERE i.

Speaker 1 (02:03:30):
Have Tommy, DeVito, Go Nancy.

Speaker 2 (02:03:33):
Carrigan, yeah some organic tanking. Y. Yeah that the defensive
line is is the only outside Of Malik, neighbors is
the only real bright spot of that Entire.

Speaker 1 (02:03:49):
Yeah i'm just saying like he's a solid.

Speaker 2 (02:03:52):
ONE i think he also had his best game of
the year last year Against dallas's terrible run. Defense so
some of those numbers are a bit potentially a bit.
PLAY i, mean.

Speaker 1 (02:04:01):
Let's run through them real.

Speaker 2 (02:04:02):
Quick, eagles you're saying under eleven and a, Half i'm going.
OVER i Think eagles are. TWELVE i think they're below
where they were last, year BUT i think they're STILL i.

Speaker 1 (02:04:15):
THINK i think they take they gave up too much on.

Speaker 2 (02:04:18):
Defense commander's nine and a half, Over i'm going over.
TO i think it's their. TEN i Think vegas has
the two game differences. CORRECT i just think they're slid.

Speaker 1 (02:04:28):
Well those three those last three games are gonna.

Speaker 2 (02:04:30):
That's gonna be. Awesome, yeah that's gonna be A cowboys
seven and a. Half you say, UNDER i Think i'm
still saying Under giants five and a. HALF i go,
Under i'm gonna go over.

Speaker 1 (02:04:39):
WELL i want to go over well. Again he's gonna
disappoint Some giants, fans But i'm gonna go OVER i
