"The Joey Galloway, Alvin Harper. Zeke Elliott, Jalen Smith. I mean, you know, we could go on. There would be these guys who had these enormous profiles, but were not actually great at their jobs anymore. This team, beyond Micah Parsons and Dak, who you mentioned, is built with Tony Pollard, and Terence Steele, their right tackle, and Tyler Smith, the guy they drafted in the first round last year. They have really good safeties. It's just like a well-built football team. I thought they played free agency really well by getting Stephon Gilmore and Brandon Cooks for mid-round picks. These guys are just good football players. So it just feels very, very different than other Cowboy teams, and that's what makes me think that they could be really good this year. It's one of those, it's just more fun when they're involved. Of course, of course. The NBA has a few teams like that, too. You can talk about, oh, it's so nice to have Milwaukee in there and stuff, but when it's like the Celtics and the Lakers and the Sixers, now we're bringing in 50-plus years of stuff in a bunch of cases. The thing with the Cowboys, they were talking about this Giants-Cowboys rivalry. You know, they played that up on the week one, and who is the Cowboys' rival? Because you could say it's the Giants, but other than the LT, or what were the great Cowboys-Giants games, it was like they were never really good at the same times. And then I would say the Eagles, same thing, you'd go back to the 90s, but for the most part, I don't really feel like they overlap. Who do you consider the big Dallas rival? Well, I'd say the Eagles felt, at least during the regular season last year, like the one that was the nastiest, that felt like this is a huge game. I don't want to lose. I won't feel good about losing this under any circumstances. And then I think the other one is the 49ers, just because they've beaten them in the playoffs the last two years, and that feels like it's heated up a little bit again and was really the true rival of the 80s and then later in the 90s. I agree with you. I think it's the Niners. I'm with you. Because they've had the most memorable games against the Niners. And the other one we got denied this week is Aaron Rodgers versus the Cowboys. I mean, that was an absolute murder of the Cowboys year after year after year. You remember that one pass in the playoffs near the Cowboys with the number one seed. Not going to happen. That was supposed to be this week, prime game on CBS. But we'll see. I want to talk about Rodgers night in one second, so hold that one. If you had to guess how this Dallas season plays out from a media coverage, fan base, posterior, dominant storyline standpoint, it feels like they have a chance to swallow up this season if they can keep it going like they did. Especially because the Jets content feels like it's about to tail off. That's gone. Yeah, we're done with the Jets. Mahomes isn't going to be that as fun as usual to watch because he doesn't have the same weapons. Miami's kind of interesting if they can keep two on the field just because of how much fun they are. But it feels like it's a Dallas, San Francisco collision coming. I accidentally turned on Greeny yesterday, Bill, when I was driving around the car. Was he hosting his own show or no? He was actually on. That was the first surprise. And he's reading these emails. You had a one in nine chance of hearing him host his own show. I can't believe it. He's reading these emails and it's like, could the Jets win a Super Bowl based on their defense like the 85 Bears? I'm like, guys, the drawbridge has gone up on Jets content. We're done. We spent the whole preseason on that. It's time to move on. We're all good. Thanks very much. What did you take from a media standpoint from Monday night? Other than that, it was one of the more riveting TV nights for football that we've had in a while. When the game began, I thought, oh my God, Joe and Troy just got the same horrible hand that Kevin Burkhart and Greg Olsen got in the NFC Championship game where quarterback goes out early. We know how the game's gonna end and you basically have to fill three hours. Got any notes on the backup safety, Joe? Got something you can help us occupy time with? And Zach Wilson content. And then Josh Wilson, I mean Josh Allen, excuse me, you know, let the Jets back into the game. It was horrible. And so you're watching and you're going, oh, this is gonna be an all time Monday night game. It's actually gonna be had this really weird rollercoaster ride all the way to overtime. It actually turned out to be a great game. I'd like to declare, I'm gonna, can I put my old guy hat on? Is it an old guy hat? What is it, an old guy jacket? People should know you're wearing a hat backwards right now, so. I am, because I don't want the shadow over my head. That's the only reason. But also I'm in my mid-50s. I'd like to play some moratorium on people declaring something to be the greatest game ever, the greatest whatever ever, when it's something like Monday Night Football that's been around since 1970. Like let's do, let's do a little legwork first. Let's just give it a whirl. Let's just go through, maybe make a top 12 list first, go through, you can Google, do some bleacher report. Somebody at some point in the last 20 years probably wrote a 10 greatest Monday Night Football games ever, figure out which ones add, and then really try to put it in some context, because I'm positive we've had some awesome games. I mean, one of the great ones was, that is Sean Jackson, when he dropped the ball at the one yard line, which was the greatest moment in fantasy football history, and gambling history, where it wasn't, ended up not being a touchdown and that turned into a whole thing. But I mean, there's just, every year there's a great one. There was the Dan Marino fake spike, just got, just going through, like we could go through every year, we'd find something fun. The Vinatieri, when, I think it was the Jets or the Colts, whoever they were playing, left the field, and Vinatieri ran in the two point for the cover. We've, every year there's one awesome Monday Night Football game, this turned out to be the awesome one this year, but old guy Bill wants everybody to stop, stuff like that. The only declaration I was gonna make on Monday Night is if the Jets had lost that game, if it had turned out to be a terrible game with Zach Wilson, like we thought it would, would that have been one of the worst back-to-back nights in New York Stadium history? 40 to nothing Sunday night in the rain, Rogers Achilles Monday night. And I tweeted that and somebody immediately wrote back, hey, don't forget Yankee Stadium 2004. I was like, oh yeah, so that's number one. But probably on the list somewhere. Yeah, especially when, you know, the Jet type, I personally didn't think Hard Knocks was still alive in this way, because it was like, what, year 20, and it's the same show every year, and it's the same narrator, and it's done the same way, and it has same beats, like I kinda stopped watching it. I only watched the first Rogers one, because it was such a Rogers infomercial, I was like, I'm good. But then I saw this interview with Rogers, I think with Aaron Andrews on Sunday. It was the rare Sunday morning interview that I actually thought was pretty interesting, and Rogers said in complete conviction, and I think he really meant it, that was the first time I've ever seen myself on TV where it was me, where what you saw in Hard Knocks, that's what I'm like, that's the relationship with my teammates, they just captured it. And I was so happy that people finally got to see that. He said something like that, and I was thinking, now I'm even more dubious of the show, because it's a reality show. What have we ever trusted? You're on a show like that with cameras pointed at you, and you're presenting a version of yourself that you think people want to see, but is it really you? So it made him even more mysterious to me, and then it didn't matter, because it got hurt in 36 hours. Yeah, it shouldn't ideally be like a Netflix doc that you produced.

"Cool you see on there. I was helpful in putting together. Anything bad one hundred percent But so joseph says man digs makes that interception at the end of the game we would have a different discussion. And if and that was so close i mean literally touched almost alternatives his fingertips. I don't know how well you saw that they're even with your super hawkeye vision. Sorry thom But if he does make that pick then. I do think the conversation is dan. Quayle did it. You know what. I mean like this defense win. The super bowl trayvon two interceptions. It is truly a game of inches in that particular sense. I mean you still have to give it to digs like being there in. Like almost getting it. I i know i hate. We hate to almost arrogant so hurts but like last year you couldn't walk up to us and like hit us with the football in the helmet and be like take this and like have created like i know it's an almost but he also had what he had and pick earlier in the game. Is that right. yeah again. Don't have hawkeye vision like tom. So i did have hard time. Seeing that burns wants to note that hawkeye is the worst avenger. So tom. That was my point. Oh so it's like a self deprecating things time. Well i thought you were really passionate. I didn't know if you know if you were like an archer of spare time. That didn't know what was going on here. Seen something flowing flying around. And i'm a guy with the boa an arrow come on interesting. That was We'll try to get this back on track. Tony let's talk briefly about the washington football team who plays two days from now on thursday night. Against the new york giants super pumped to watch these two pedestrians. Tell you But quarterback ryan fitzpatrick will six to eight weeks with a hip injury that he suffered early in the game last week during their loss against the los angeles chargers. I am not somebody who believed in ryan fitzpatrick this season. Call me by comma home or whatever I did not think that that was the like magic answer to this team. I was thrilled when it was chicago. Traded up to draft fields and not washington but the next eight weeks for the washington. Football team tony. Our new york on thursday night at buffalo who will probably get right by then at atlanta. Who did us no favours falcons. You suck then the saints and chiefs at home before. They travelled green bay and denver before thereby they do host. The buccaneers after that by Is washington in the mix at all if they were in the mixed this impact them like how do you see. They're standing in the division at this point in time and burns asks do they sign camp so you know. I think this is deeply impacts. They rate i mean if you look at the start of the season. We're only one game in so you can still kind of have those. You don't want to get too high or too low based on one week of action I washington is perceived to be our biggest threat in the division and they just lost their starting quarterback for six day weeks for a guy who has taken grad glasses So so now. So he's out there and you look at it and it's yes they have you know equality defense and they have probably the best collection of front seven you know at least eline guys in believe deeply impacts the way that you look at it. 'cause six day weeks they could be. What two four. Two one five in that strategy one game. Do they win here. Because i fancy graphics tony look down but right now i'm looking at it. Look at it right. You look at the giants i mean. I mean that's iceberg slim. Says they will be right off the bat. So and i would love that. I mean i could see them. You know i guess the only game looking at it is new york and maybe denver. They give him a run. I mean i. I smoke in washington easily at mile. Stadium earth all right. Whatever suits right. So yeah i mean washington. By the time he gets back it could be you know tank season. Not really you know what i mean facetiously but you know. We're looking at a different a different way if you're sitting there at seven So tom what's washington's record. Going to be their own one here. These are their next seven games and thereby meg. I'm coming to you nick. So none of this like. I'll put me on the spot. But tom tom. We'll go through one by one winner. Lauch four washington new york on thursday. I think they've got a good chance of warning that because they are going up against jason garrett's offense. So best best possible great so one one at buffalo all right cool one to atlanta. I think atlanta wall pull themselves together after they let us down so badly. And so i say that is likely loss atlanta this tom all right so one and three new orleans and kc back to back. Oh boy that's a tough tough pair games man. I can't see them. It looks like jimmy. Us will winston. I actually have found coats that can get him to the operate efficiently. So i don't see them wanting that. And jesus still the cheese patrick mahomes. They're they're good. And then at lambeau well depends. O- at that point has aaron. Rogers succeeded in what appears to be an attempt to get them to been kim or not because performance in the opening week was almost deliberately to not go out and play a good game. I mean i don't know how to describe it Green bay looked horrible. So that i'm not sure but yeah that one that one could be a surprise because a rebate me about to be come really off the rails and then and then at denver after that i think denver can probably be so may at best i think they could be two than six but now since he wanted seven out of the realm of possibility at all. If you're with us live by the way on youtube please let us know what you think. Washington's record will be at the break their own one now they have seven games between now and then no Six games between already lost three four. Five six seventy seven games between that. So what will their record. They will have played eight games at the by very embarrassing. Moment for me Right there tom. You have them at two and six. Maybe and yeah. I think though they'll look into something. Maybe it's the falcons game. Maybe the saints game like maybe something weird like again. It is football but to be very clear we are talking about. It seem that we all believe is extraordinarily bad. We all beyond a shadow of doubt believed that they will beat the giants which is embarrassing for the giants. Make what do you think Dot says one and seven here Christopher summers says one in seven category where wanna see these baked goods maquette one in seven dallas. Theon arrays with tom. Who are you gonna copy. Here may one in seven to sixty on your own way. owen eight. maybe maybe..
