Speaker 1: The following segment is brought to you by her Title Barbecue,
Speaker 1: some of the best barbecue you could ever have in
Speaker 1: your life. Locations in Mansfield, Arlington, and Fort Worth, two
Speaker 1: locations of globalife Field, and one's now open in Dallas
Speaker 1: in the Farmers Market. So if you're in the nine
Speaker 1: seven two or two one four and you want her
Speaker 1: Title Barbecue, you no longer have to go out to
Speaker 1: the eight one seven. But if you're in the eight
Speaker 1: one seven, you got a lot of options out there.
Speaker 1: Go enjoy the best barbecue you've ever put in your mouth,
Speaker 1: the greatness of her Title Barbecue. But right now it's
Speaker 1: time for this tab's good listeners, Here comes kt fun tweets.
Speaker 1: We're the round. Now let's go around the sports kt
Speaker 1: fun tweets as all the sports.
Speaker 2: Yea, guys, what are we gonna do? We lost her
Speaker 2: backup quarterback.
Speaker 1: Trey Lance. Bro keep him.
Speaker 2: Cooper Rush has signed a two year deal with the
Speaker 2: Baltimore Ravens, and now the Cowboys have no plan if
Speaker 2: Dak and his hammy fall off the bone again.
Speaker 1: I really didn't see did Trey Lance sign somewhere? No?
Speaker 1: I don't wait to bring him back because I mean
Speaker 1: they all hate him. Oh really, I think so you
Speaker 1: need I mean, honestly, you could just it doesn't even
Speaker 1: matter because if you don't have Dak, you're done, You're
Speaker 1: You're totally cooked, I think.
Speaker 2: But also I'm not sure.
Speaker 1: I do think Let's see what else the team looks
Speaker 1: like by the time we get to the start of
Speaker 1: the season. The first thing is, it's very sure that
Speaker 1: Cooper Cooper's got a two year deals, so he took
Speaker 1: it right, But so you know, he didn't run the
Speaker 1: same offense Lamar Jackson runs.
Speaker 2: That's a little weird to me. But the Cowboys current
Speaker 2: fetish for former first round picks, I'm thinking Carson Wentz
Speaker 2: could be a guy the veragain is the backup if
Speaker 2: they the Chiefs don't want him around anymore because he
Speaker 2: apparently the guy sucks as a human. No one really
Speaker 2: wants to be on him either.
Speaker 1: Oh well, well, if I mean, I think it's a
Speaker 1: fair point you make, skin, Let's see what the rest
Speaker 1: of how it's built out, how the rest of the
Speaker 1: offseason goes. If they have this badass team and they're
Speaker 1: going for it, and they've made the investments to go
Speaker 1: for it now, which it doesn't even doesn't feel like that.
Speaker 1: You know, it's not like they're going out and spending
Speaker 1: a bunch of money in free agency to fill holes
Speaker 1: and like really go for it this year. They're kind
Speaker 1: you know, they're paying their guys that they're keeping or whatever.
Speaker 1: But there's nothing here that says it's not going to
Speaker 1: be an eight to nine season. But if they were
Speaker 1: like really going for it, then yeah, I would want
Speaker 1: to have a good backup, so if you missed Dak
Speaker 1: for two or three games, your season doesn't fall apart.
Speaker 1: But I don't know that they have that. What are
Speaker 1: you expecting scheme wise? If can we even have an
Speaker 1: expectation of that? Because this man has never really been
Speaker 1: a head coach, and he hasn't been the offensive coordinator
Speaker 1: running an offense in a really long time, and he.
Speaker 2: Hired a bunch of coaches who've got a lot of
Speaker 2: different backgrounds, which I like, So we don't know. I
Speaker 2: don't know what to expect.
Speaker 1: It's also complicated because you don't know how good your
Speaker 1: offensive line is going to be, right, and you don't
Speaker 1: know who you're starting running back is going to be,
Speaker 1: and you really only have one receiver and you have
Speaker 1: a bunch of You've signed a bunch of guys to
Speaker 1: one year deals or whatever. I mean, you don't really
Speaker 1: at this point, it's your your roster. It's not like
Speaker 1: you the coach has a system to your point, and
Speaker 1: it's not like you have immense talent dictating a system
Speaker 1: like I don't think Dak can really move around. He's
Speaker 1: not going to be mobile anymore. So, I mean, you've
Speaker 1: got Cede Lamb and that's all you really have to
Speaker 1: build your expectation around. You know who I would like
Speaker 1: to see as our backup quarterback since Dak isn't mobile anymore.
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco. Just work with me.
Speaker 2: Joe Fleco's in negotiations with the Giants. Giants to look
Speaker 2: at Joe Flacco and Jameis Winston.
Speaker 1: And Jameis Winston would be fun.
Speaker 2: That'd be really fun.
Speaker 1: I think Jameis Winston would beat Dak out.
Speaker 2: I mean, no, Jamis is not good.
Speaker 1: Keep in mind, this is the first year that you're
Speaker 1: paying him sixty a year. I'm looking forward to it, Jamis.
Speaker 1: But no, no, no, we got that number down.
Speaker 2: We got that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we were structured, were structured.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we got flipped.
Speaker 1: Apparently, when you restructure, that money just goes away.
Speaker 2: Let me tell you what I think they're gonna do.
Speaker 2: I think they're going to draft Texas Longhorns quarterback Quin Yours.
Speaker 2: Let's go where well, if he falls to well, they
Speaker 2: don't have a fourth round pick, falls to the fifth round,
Speaker 2: they take him in the fifth round. They got Mingo,
Speaker 2: And honestly, I think when you should be fifth round
Speaker 2: pick because this quarterback draft sucks, though he'll probably go
Speaker 2: fair round.
Speaker 1: Do you think we could trade Mingo to move up
Speaker 1: and draft yours? I don't think anyone wants him yours
Speaker 1: or Mingo Mingo? Well, Mingo, someone will want yours. We
Speaker 1: get it.
Speaker 2: He should have gone back to college and get money there.
Speaker 1: Could he beat dack out? No, I don't know. Man,
Speaker 1: yours is Yours has an entire quarter of every game
Speaker 1: where he's terrible.
Speaker 2: We'll think differently about the cowboy Boys when they draft
Speaker 2: like a wide receiver. There's a wide stuer from Arizona
Speaker 2: who's really good. It's too early be talking a mind.
Speaker 1: Probably.
Speaker 2: I don't know how to say his first name, but
Speaker 2: we'll just come Ted. Okay, So if they draft Ted,
Speaker 2: they should be good. Ted tedaroy is his first name,
Speaker 2: ted Roy McMillan from Arizona. He's like huge, he's like
Speaker 2: six to five, and it was like, well, he's too
Speaker 2: slow and he's ran a four to four eight. So
Speaker 2: everyone's like, oh god, he's going top ten Now. I'm like, no,
Speaker 2: he's always been right around fifteen where you would take him.
Speaker 2: The guyl was picked twelve, that'd be great, and then
Speaker 2: he'd be a good guy to be to go with
Speaker 2: Ceedee Lamb red zone threat. Right, and then you're like, okay,
Speaker 2: well there's two good wide receivers, end up draft running back,
Speaker 2: and then you've ignored the offensive line and Dak's getting
Speaker 2: hit in the mouth of all the time.
Speaker 1: You know what, though, there's chance their first round pick
Speaker 1: from last year could make a giant leap. Sure, brother,
Speaker 1: there's a chance after a chance their last two first
Speaker 1: round we got to hope there for it. Last two
Speaker 1: first round pick. Stop sucking.
Speaker 2: The problem is the whole I mean the I'm less
Speaker 2: worried about Guidan's development in Cooper Beebe's development. The problem
Speaker 2: is who's playing the position right guard? Like that's what
Speaker 2: that's Mike, it's they need to trade the coach.
Speaker 1: I love that they need to trade back. Sure, So
Speaker 1: they get to twelve and there's a quarterback there, somebody
Speaker 1: wants genty, somebody trades up. They trade back to like
Speaker 1: eighteen or something to pick up some extra picks to
Speaker 1: make up for the Mingo and Trey Lance signings. Don't
Speaker 1: they just keep Trey Lance? Dude?
Speaker 2: I mean maybe Will Griers their play. They're not speaming, dude.
Speaker 2: The Dante Fowler signing on Friday was their largest external
Speaker 2: free agent signing since Greg Hardy. Why I'm not making
Speaker 2: a jene.
Speaker 1: It's a one year, eight million dollar deal, right hey,
Speaker 1: at ten and a half sacks, it's it's good. I
Speaker 1: would I would keep Trey Lance and just not playing
Speaker 1: at quarterback.
Speaker 2: Try to do that last year.
Speaker 1: Why don't we Why don't we play them at receiver? Dude?
Speaker 2: I think that guy is turping. We already paid that
Speaker 2: guy six a year. Mark Stein and many others reporting
Speaker 2: that Anthony Davis and Jaden Hardy at the Mavericks have
Speaker 2: been officially recalled from their practice stint with the Texas Legends.
Speaker 1: What they just got it out like they had one practice.
Speaker 1: I don't know what any of that means.
Speaker 2: So five hours ago Steyning tweeted, Anthony Davis is practicing
Speaker 2: with the Legends today up in Frisco. Oh okay, and
Speaker 2: then that's gotta party and Kai Jones are in contention
Speaker 2: to be active for the Mavericks game on Wednesday against Indiana.
Speaker 1: That's gotta be procedural, because I don't think the Mavericks
Speaker 1: are practicing right now because they don't have enough bodies
Speaker 1: to practice. Yeah, so they probably wanted Anthony Davis and
Speaker 1: Jayden Hardy to get run. So they probably had to
Speaker 1: do some sort of procedural thing to do that.
Speaker 2: Because the Suns are so bad. The Mavericks have the
Speaker 2: ten seed in the West, which would qualify them for
Speaker 2: the play in.
Speaker 1: Dude, they were They looked great in the first half
Speaker 1: against the Philly team that lost thirteen to fifteen. I thought, well, okay,
Speaker 1: they're gonna get a win, and I was looking at
Speaker 1: the schedule, going, man, I don't know that Phoenix is
Speaker 1: gonna win today. They're going to gain another ground and
Speaker 1: they lost to fill it. He who had lost thirteen
Speaker 1: of fifteen. And you're sitting going, I don't know where
Speaker 1: the winds come from. If you can't meet Philly at
Speaker 1: home when Philly's not trying to win, where did the
Speaker 1: wins come from? Unless we're about to get news that
Speaker 1: Anthony Davis is back, which would just blow my mind
Speaker 1: wide open. I'd be like, Okay, didn't see that coming.
Speaker 1: What a weird season, man, it's the weirdest I thought
Speaker 1: Anthony Davis was pretty much done for the year. Now
Speaker 1: he's playing with the Legends, or he's practicing with the legends.
Speaker 1: Just show me something else. I can't believe I'm ready
Speaker 1: for it. Whatever you got that, I can't believe I'm
Speaker 1: ready to see it, man, bring it on. So Quentin
Speaker 1: Grimes went for twenty eight the other day. Yeah he
Speaker 1: looked good. I mean, and it wasn't even like, you know,
Speaker 1: just forcing it. He played just within that.
Speaker 2: He's their only player right now, right Yeah, he's still
Speaker 2: role player. He's not a star. Star numbers right now.
Speaker 1: Right now is that there's not a single player on
Speaker 1: the team that can protect the basket. And so teams
Speaker 1: that are smart, like the Spurs did this in the
Speaker 1: second game. They just went and shot layups the entire
Speaker 1: game because no one's coming over to help. Is Caleb
Speaker 1: Martin hurt again or he didn't play yesterday. Okay, and
Speaker 1: he's on a minute restriction. Anyways, such a bad season
Speaker 1: in so many different ways. Man grind look good though, Yeah,
Speaker 1: he looked. That hurts. It all hurts. And that particular
Speaker 1: trade is the one that pushed them over the apron. Right. Yes,
Speaker 1: if they hadn't made that deal, they might have more
Speaker 1: maneuverability with the roster. Yeah, I need to look at
Speaker 1: the money, but I believe that's accurate. I believe that
Speaker 1: Buddy would have had enough space to keep signing guys
Speaker 1: he wasn't going to stay so presumably, right, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'd heard her so, and he asked out of Detroit.
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know what is to be gained
Speaker 1: by ad playing. I worried that he's going to get hurt. Obviously.
Speaker 1: I would just like to fast forward into the offseason.
Speaker 1: And you know, but these guys compete hard every night,
Speaker 1: and I mean, if they make the playoffs or they
Speaker 1: make a play in game, and I don't know what
Speaker 1: the real upside is there. I think for this fan base,
Speaker 1: the best thing could happen is just hit the reset
Speaker 1: button and shroop start over. Get it. If they were
Speaker 1: to luck out, And this is a team that's in
Speaker 1: desperate need of some luck. But if they lucked out
Speaker 1: and got a top four pick, which if they got
Speaker 1: all the way down to like ten or eleven, that's
Speaker 1: not that outrageous. A team has gone from ten, I
Speaker 1: believe a team I think Chicago one year went from
Speaker 1: ten to the first pick. I can't have to go
Speaker 1: back and look at lottery history. Now. The Mavericks have
Speaker 1: never had any lottery history luck at all. But if
Speaker 1: they were to land in the top four after not
Speaker 1: making the playoffs, that would be like, okay, they could
Speaker 1: probably use that pick and make another trade and acquire
Speaker 1: a player that could stem the tide till Kyrie's back,
Speaker 1: or if the right players there, one of those guards
Speaker 1: out of Rutger or whatever, maybe they could draft him.
Speaker 1: You know, but that's still that's squinting. You know, they're
Speaker 1: gonna have a lot of ability to make moves this summer.
Speaker 1: And yeah, I mean, I know everyone's kind of operating
Speaker 1: under the assumption that they think Nico is gonna be fired.
Speaker 1: And man, I'm being as sincere with you as I
Speaker 1: can be. I have no idea what Patrick Dumont thinks
Speaker 1: about the any of this, and unless someone's talked to
Speaker 1: Patrick dumont. I don't think they know either. There's no
Speaker 1: track record here at all unless you've like can somehow
Speaker 1: equate it to something that's happened at the SAMs court before. Like,
Speaker 1: there's no track record to understand what this owner thinks
Speaker 1: about what has or hasn't happened. So we're just al
Speaker 1: center going, I don't know.
Speaker 2: Maybe right and if Nico's gone, he's got to wear
Speaker 2: some of what's happened too. Right now, a lot of
Speaker 2: this Nico is wearing.
Speaker 1: There's to me, there's only one thing that can happen
Speaker 1: that could restore faith in the organization. I'm not saying
Speaker 1: it's gonna happen, but it's to bring Dirk on and
Speaker 1: have him be the GM or something to president of
Speaker 1: basketball and so in some way bring Dirk into the organization.
Speaker 1: It's the only thing that could help. Honestly my feel
Speaker 1: I don't know what the role would be. You don't
Speaker 1: have to fire anyone, but if you just made Dirk
Speaker 1: in charge, Like hey man, we're just we're we're building
Speaker 1: this casino. We're just gonna hire Dirk and let him
Speaker 1: run everything. Everybody reports to Dirk. Now I think the
Speaker 1: fan base would go Okay, I agree that the fan
Speaker 1: base would be on board of that. I can't imagine
Speaker 1: Dirk part of that, right exactly. Yeah, but I agree
Speaker 1: with you. I think you're right.
Speaker 2: But let me just throw out another option. Let's add
Speaker 2: Romo to the roster.
Speaker 1: Okay, let's go on, Kevin, Let's go, come on, Kevin,
Speaker 1: let him cook gun before I mean, let ktkuk Yeah, yeah, yeh,
Speaker 1: get in the ball.
Speaker 2: You don't want me in the organization. I have some
Speaker 2: Tomorrow's MLB opening It tomorrow's MLB Opening day, and I
Speaker 2: have some Rangers news, both good and bad.
Speaker 1: Or you're sitting on Rangers news until tomorrow.
Speaker 2: Because tomorrow's opening day. Tomorrow morning at three ten am
Speaker 2: is opening day.
Speaker 1: What do you mean opening it's what you got?
Speaker 2: Some japan Ball happening.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I'll be glued all right, and we'll be
Speaker 1: out at opening Day.
Speaker 2: See you on in ten days.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, thank you, Kevin. There he goes Kevin Turner. Yeah,
Speaker 1: coming up next. It's the only segment of the day
Speaker 1: that won't be podcast at the Today game. Right here
Speaker 1: on the Eagle
