00:00And I, and I hate to say it here because I'm not, uh, I'm not a Cowboys lover one way
00:05or
00:05the other, but my goodness, I was one who thought, you know what, that defense is going
00:12to be a little bit better this year.
00:14And that offense is going to be good.
00:16And we're going to be, they're going to score a ton.
00:18They're going to be able to Quinn and Williams.
00:20And like, I was in that camp where I thought Dallas might run away with the NFC East.
00:26And as it turns out, uh, both their tackles, Quinn and Williams is good, but he seems to
00:33be a shell of himself.
00:35Uh, but they're awful.
00:36Every, all of them are awful on that side of the ball.
00:39I just, I did not see that.
00:41I thought they would have been better this year here, Greg.
00:44Yeah, not really for me.
00:45I think that one, you know, that, that, see what you're saying right now is going to be
00:50funny, Joe, because they're going to suck you back in in the next three or four weeks.
00:53They're going to win like every game now.
00:54Like, this is, this is exactly what they do.
00:56And then we'll be here in December and you're going to say, well, now is, is it possible
01:00Craig that this is the Cowboys team?
01:03And it's not a look, I, you know, I've said, I've said this before and I'll say it again.
01:08Uh, Jerry Jones is a hall of famer.
01:10The amount he, he has raised the bar for owning teams in the NFL and created, I mean, he is
01:17a
01:17de facto commissioner in the NFL, honestly, like the Dallas Cowboys are worth $20 billion
01:21or whatever they are, but he's not a general manager in the NFL.
01:25He's not like, I'm sorry.
01:27He's not, uh, you know, Jimmy Johnson was, and it's not that Jerry Jones made his legacy
01:34off Jimmy Johnson, but Jimmy Johnson was integral to a lot of the success that the Cowboys had.
01:39He knew how to make rosters.
01:41Good.
01:41Jimmy Johnson left to Miami and drafted guys like Zach Thomas and Jason Taylor out of nowhere.
01:48These were not first round picks, second round picks, third round picks.
01:51They ended up in the pro football hall of fame.
01:54Jimmy Johnson is a better, a talent evaluator than Jerry Jones will ever be.
01:58And unfortunately, you know, Jerry is, is going to stop doing this at some point.
02:03And he is the GM.
02:05He talks after every game.
02:06His son, Steven is going to end up being the GM.
02:09It's not going to work, but they, I don't know that they care.
02:13Like, honestly, Joe, I don't know that they care.
02:14Like it's a toy for them.
02:17They're just having fun.
02:18It almost feels like it's like, it's like they're playing like fantasy football.
02:22Like I am with this team and they hire guys.
02:26They hire coaches for the most part who are going to just say, okay, we'll do whatever
02:30you want to be.
02:31What, what credentials did Brian Schottenheimer have Joe to be the head coach of, of any
02:35team, let alone the Dallas Cowboys.
02:37It felt like two times since Jimmy Johnson, Jerry's hired guys who are like legit can coach
02:45Montgomery.
02:46I'm sorry.
02:47McCarthy was the last one.
02:49What happened?
02:49Right.
02:50McCarthy is like, I don't like the way this is going.
02:52They couldn't come to a deal.
02:53I'm out.
02:54And the other time was Parcells, right?
02:56They hired Parcells after Jimmy Johnson, Parcells a couple of years.
03:00He's like, this is ridiculous.
03:01I'm out too.
03:02So Joe, nothing is going to change, but hang on to your hat here for a minute.
03:06Cause Dallas is about to go on a run.
03:08They're about to win big on Thanksgiving.
03:10They're about to be eight and five, eight and six, you know, Oh, we're, we're going to
03:15believe again.
03:16And then they're just going to let you down.
03:18So I, I, I think their offense still is great.
03:21Dak is great.
03:22Great running backs, great receivers.
03:24Defense didn't get fixed.
03:25Nothing will ever get fixed.
03:26Dallas Cowboys same every year, year after year.
03:31Oh, you just, you just crapped all over them.
03:34So don't, don't believe the hype is what you say.
03:37They're going to be good again here soon.
03:39They're going to play well.
03:40And you're going to be, you're going to be like, Oh, you know, maybe Dallas, maybe.
03:45And then no.
