00:00the great bobby belt shoddy and bobby just talking don't make me take off my belt don't
00:06make me take off my belt we're not over to you bobby aiden butler josh clark cover your ears
00:11let's talk about it here in below the belt which is brought to you by dnm leasing now you may
00:16be
00:16saying why do they have to cover their ears you may be saying who's josh clark josh clark is our
00:23web guy and aiden butler is of course our fan cam guy and we're going to talk about something right
00:27now that if clipped in a one minute excerpt and posted on social media will have people losing
00:33their effing minds and i don't feel like dealing with that today oh we're still going to talk about
00:37this and i'm gonna clip what you want i'm saying don't make it don't make it sound out of context
00:42because as we talked about earlier today is there a more intense player hive that exists right now
00:49than the george pickens hive no i don't know that there's anybody i'm trying to think if there's
00:56somebody like even caleb downs doesn't have this the deck hive came out when i said he's regressed
01:03i get why that happened though and i think you hit it earlier today regressed naturally to people
01:08sounds like instead of you saying he's fallen off from where he was a couple weeks ago regress sounds
01:14like a this is a permanent like state he's in now and so they're probably that i think is just
01:20more
01:21it's also weird misunderstanding of what words you were using it's also weird because so much this is
01:25also platform based like pickens has got pretty strong support everywhere i feel like yeah but
01:33like you know on the fan tax like the fan tax will kill dak whereas like the hive on dak
01:37on on twitter
01:37i mean it's there's a lot of people who kill him too but he's also got his his well people
01:43are but
01:44people are also ignorant and this goes to politics it goes to everything no one like the gray area is
01:50lost like it's got to be black or white you can't say wow dak has stunk the last two weeks
01:56but i think
01:57he's still a good quarterback and he's going to bounce back that statement for anything you can
02:01fill in the blank for anything in life yeah and people are too stupid or refuse to absorb it or
02:07comprehend it yeah and look george pickens has a high for a reason he's awesome like he makes great
02:12plays he is a really good receiver uh is he a great receiver that's what the cowboys are trying to
02:17figure out because a great receiver is not just can do all these things it's can do them consistently
02:22and can be somebody that you can rely on and that's been the question and benjamin solak had his
02:28things he's thinking entering week seven talking about eagles talking about he thinks he's seen
02:34regression real regression not just fall off last couple weeks real regression from matthew stafford that
02:39should be concerning for people but then he's got a section in there because this is the things he
02:45thinks this is things he might think that he's he's wrestling with in his brain and he's he's
02:51thinking it over they all steal him from uh peter king yeah exactly he's gone by the way uh it's
02:56good
02:57question because he was supposed to be here two weeks ago and then they went silent uh never mind i'm
03:04not gonna say it uh all right george pickens the top line in his i might think ben solak says
03:10i might
03:10think george pickens is a trade candidate his effort level and focus seem to be waning again
03:17uh-oh and the cowboys will struggle to pay pickens and cornerback joey porter jr whom they recently
03:22traded for if the two and four cowboys keep losing games i'd call about pickens on the franchise tag for
03:28the remainder of the season we know he has green bake game breaking ability when he's dialed in imagine
03:34pickens in los angeles to help replace devonta adams or in kansas city as mahomes's new downfield
03:40target exciting stuff now i don't think dallas would prefer to if they were to get to that point
03:50i don't think they'd prefer to trade him to the rams where it's like well now that's going to be
03:53we want to try to contend in the next three years we don't want to contend with that
03:57so kansas city would maybe make a little bit more sense uh i'm sure they've got good relationships with
04:02the hunt family from you know obviously they still live here they're at fc dallas and let us broker the
04:07deal through dan yeah exactly we'll we'll handle it we'll negotiate the trade and if you're going to
04:11negotiate that trade what are you asking for sean from the kansas city chiefs
04:18i'm asking for a one
04:22one and a three might feel a little rich
04:27it's definitely not a one and a two that's too much to ask a team to pay what if it's
04:31a one
04:32two years down the road and a two so it's not the next year's one right
04:38a one two years down the road and a two so a second rounder next year yeah and then a
04:44one in
04:44the 28 draft i would consider that because right now this looks like a kansas city team that's going
04:48to pick at the back end of the draft anyway yeah and so and your draft pick though is what
04:53like 27
04:54right now with the way green bay is going am i mathing that correctly oh do you think green bay
05:00would be that high i'll give it to you right now no i'm just saying like it's 27 they are
05:04right now
05:0427 would be like basically the best team that was eliminated from the divisional round
05:10like the highest ranked player team that was eliminated from the divisional round i think you'll
05:14probably and the cowboys tank-a-thon has them at 27 i think you'll end up picking
05:20probably with that pick something like that 20 to 24 is where you'll end up picking because
05:25you're gonna end up giving the jets the top five pick and let me say one more thing before
05:30chop weighs in this is what we do on this show this way i think a lot of people should
05:34try to do in
05:34sports talk radio we don't think george pickens getting the football enough that's number one the
05:42the following possibilities for that are are these dac is not seeing him dac is not getting it to him
05:50that's a possibility the defenses are just saying no we're taking george away he's not getting it
05:59it's not going to be an option for you brian schottenheimer is not scheming him open and it's a
06:07play caller responsibility or george pickens isn't getting open and effort and route running could
06:15be an issue what we do on this program try to wrap you pickens fan club cheerleaders your pickens
06:22pea brain around this we're going to discuss all four of the possibilities and examine them to try
06:29to figure out what the problem is why he's not getting the football more except blaming dac we won't do
06:35that okay i'm just kidding so it's it's dac not seeing getting it to him the other defense just
06:41saying no he's our focal point he's not getting it schottenheimer falling short scheming it to him
06:50or george not getting open slash effort those are the possibilities we examine these things any type of
06:57you know anytime these discussions come up we have a war room type discussion yeah look when um
07:03it's not trying to run him out of town and it's not your dumb ass theory that jerry gave us
07:08the
07:08green light and called the bat phone in the studio and said uh all right smear campaign begin because
07:15that always comes out from you morons on social media and you are a moron well my my first inclination
07:20in a situation like this is always um it's it's not usually to the coach it's usually either the
07:28receiver's not getting open or the quarterback um knows that he's not getting open it's just like
07:34okay they're taking away i'm just gonna go elsewhere because in the in the very rudimentary sense the
07:40quarterback decides where the ball goes not the coach not it's it's the quarterback decides where
07:45the football except if he's thrown out of bounds late right defense isn't telling you where it goes
07:50first yes but the quarterback reacts to that yeah right quarterback could just force it if he
07:54what he could go i'll throw it here because you mentioned jsn yeah he's bracketed all the time
07:58yep sam darnold still says my best option yes is still forcing it to him yes uh dac doesn't have
08:04to worry about that because he's got cd lamb right he doesn't have to say well i'm not now if
08:08there
08:09was no george pickens and they were bracketing cd lamb dac's like well i still gotta go to him
08:13they did bracket him in 23 you put up ridiculous numbers because he's a great receiver and like great
08:18receivers if you force the ball to them they're gonna put up good numbers so yeah i mean look
08:24at the end of the day like if dac really wanted to force the ball to george pickens he would
08:27force
08:27the ball to george pickens i think dac's doing the right thing in the sense that he sees that if
08:33he's not open this other guy is also a unicorn and he's open so i'll just go to him 18
08:39times 99 times
08:40out of 100 i would say this this discussion is a total complete waste of time because we don't know
08:46right no because of jerry um that the nfc east is not going to make them sell and jerry just
08:55not
08:55going to be a seller he'll never go ahead and reset the reason i say 99 out of 100 does
09:02dealing mic up
09:03make you feel any different that they would consider something like this micah was such unique set of
09:08circumstances where there was a issue of different agent yeah who's who's same age yeah who's who's
09:16lying who's telling the truth about the meeting that they were in yeah who called the meeting who was
09:21there an agreement on so that became so personal yeah that became so ugly i think that it was one
09:28where
09:28that was a unique set of circumstances where i think they would have blinked otherwise and they
09:32didn't because it became about something how unrealistic is it to expect another team to
09:37trade for him with a wink wink extension that you technically cannot get done till the year's over
09:44because of the tag i mean yeah they i don't know if there was like like the micah thing got
09:51done
09:52an extension was done on that before he was traded it seemed like because as soon as he got traded
09:56the
09:56deal was done and so i don't know if there was a permission to negotiate on that or not
10:02but it was pretty quick that it was done and they knew it so i would imagine yeah you could
10:05get a sense of that if you needed to um i think everybody's gonna want him to prove it
10:11so if you but if you ultimately trade for him you're probably saying at very worst we'll tag him
10:16and when we'll figure this out if there's one 30 million dollar deal to be given are we all
10:23agreeing that it goes to joey porter over george i'm giving it to joey yeah i would hope i wouldn't
10:30have to pay 30 million for joey but it looks like you're probably gonna have to uh but yeah
10:34joey porter over george pickens to answer your question one a and one b as to who's responsible
10:40for him not getting the ball or whatever one a is him pickens he's not getting open enough
10:46one b is teams taking him away they are like i mean it's not they're giving him attention but he's
10:52not he needs to get open off of that anyway then it's dak then last is shoddy i don't think
10:58you
10:58should have to scheme open somebody who wants to make 38 million dollars a year
11:02i i i would give it i want to hear you pick the corner over the receiver i want to
11:06well i'll tell
11:07you this and your boy too well cut the music look in sean's eyes having cd and george
11:16it makes that such a greater strength than having joey makes this an average unit
11:23so george has has a greater impact um not this year yeah i don't think he's the reason cd's doing
11:31what he's doing no well not not i'm not saying like this i'm just saying like if you had if
11:35you
11:35had to pick like you know make a strength a superpower or make a weakness if i could tell you
11:41offense
11:43offense i don't have offense offense very good to great or defense terrible to below average you
11:50would take offense very good to great okay over defense terrible to below average have you told
11:57me average all right what if i tell you average uh then i would take the corner okay yeah um
12:02but
12:03yeah like offense very good to me like if i have a chance to have a superpower um but the
12:09problem is
12:09that that superpower is not coming to fruition right and if that so now my my data points last
12:16year was just holy crap yep well now my data points have changed and now it's that's why the cowboys
12:22wanted more data
