Mick Shots: Call-In Intensive

of us had wanted it to. Bill Jones, Mickey Spagnola, and Jess Navarrez is here as well. And we're going to open up the phone lines on the this edition of mix Shots. And just you're excited about that, aren't you. I'm so excited. I haven't opened up the phone lines yet, so this will be my very first time getting to talk to everybody here. Very exciting stuff. Well, open them up, all right, all right, start calling in line them up. Okay, you gotta remember the phone number though, eight five five

to two nine seven. You go. All right, there you go, Mom and dad, there's your cue to call. There it is last truth says, I don't tear it from you. I don't think that number's changed in twenty years. I still have a hard time. I still have to think about it. Um and Mickey. You see what Mickey's wearing there. He's got his PGH Championship pull over or whatever that is. So you can tell it's bye week. He can't wait to get out on the golf course. Bye week. Yeah right, right,

I've already been out my one time a year. Oh really? Yeah? Yeah, how the Cliff Harris Charity Okay, all right, I believe that was May oh man. So that's not how you spend your bye way. No, and you know you mentioned the trade. It was not what we talked about, but about what I expected that they did absolutely nothing, yep. And we'll get into exactly why nothing happened. Yeah, over the course of the next forty five minutes, and they didn't listen to us to go find a cornerback for

depth purposes. Right, No, yeah, nothing happened. No, that's telling me they didn't like. It didn't sound like and who knows what's going on behind closed doors. You know, you like to cover yourself in case of injuries, but the difference as far as the receiver. And I'm back and forth on it because I agreed with you yesterday. Yeah, if you suffer an injury now to one of your top cornerbacks, then you're relying on somebody who really hadn't relying on two people. Maybe if Duran Bland and either

Kelvin Joseph, you know, let's say Kelvin Joseph. You know, they've got very limited NFL experience her act planned defense. But I think the difference on offense is you're looking you It sounds like they were trying to find someone who can really give it some experienced juice and playmaking ability,

and it just fell through. Well, and again it comes down to what's the cost and what are people, you know, asking for, And it's not just the cost of what you give up in the trade, it's how do you fit that salary into your cap for this year and next next year? Right, So that kind of brought up the talk of and as was reported was Brandon Cooks with Houston. Was reported that they might have been right

talking about him. But when I looked at Cooks, I mean you look at his he was eighteen million dollars base I mean for next year, next year, right, And you have made the decision in the in March when you signed Michael Gallup correct to a contract extension to his money, when you decided to trade Amari Cooper, and knowing that Cede Lamb is now eighteen months away from a new big contract, right whatever exactly, and you know you can't spend all your money on one position, right,

And had you done that, which you mentioned so this year, Cooks would have been very inexpensive. But again next year, you know, nineteen million dollars nearly you didn't want to spend that on Amari Cooper, so you probably weren't going

to do it on this guy. And if you made the decision that Cede Lamb's your number one receiver, then it's hard to spend that much on number two or number three when you were already resigned Michael Gallup, Right, So they were looking for something that wasn't going to be as expensive. I bet they wanted a second round pick for him, and then and then financially, you know, if you spend a second you're not renting him for

nine games, right, you want him next year two? So yeah, I think that went into that one, and then I don't know that anybody else got you. I mean, if you were going to get somebody had to be better than Michael Gallup to me, and you can't. That guy wasn't there. And I always wondered about that guy. Why he's been on like four teams, like no one keeps him. If you if you look at his history, he's been with the Rams right now, the Texans, and there was

one more teen let's see, maybe the Raiders. Let's all right. He and I liked him coming out of college Oregon State. New Orleans was twenty fourteen is when he came into the league. And he first round twentieth overall Saints twenty

fourteen through sixteen. Then he went to New England in twenty seventeen, the Rams eighteen nineteen, in Houston twenty through twenty two, right, and they signed him to a big contract, and part of that was, okay, he's with the Saints for three years, then goes to New England, and I mean he was racking up thousand yard receiving seasons four straight years from twenty fifteen through twenty eighteen, and part of it he is now once he gets into the third,

fourth year. Now he is to that second contract level in his career. So now teams are making the decision, Okay, do I want to pay him whatever the going rate was in twenty seventeen eighteen, they're going right now for that is twenty million dollars a year, well whatever it was then, and they've decided that he wasn't the guy they wanted to invest that money. So with this Saints, he didn't even finish his first he went three years there contract right, it had been four years, okay, so

so they traded him with a year left. Singly enough too. He was a special teams guy when he was with the Saints, and then after that no more special teams. But you want to talk about having a little bit of padding when it comes to injury. I know Kavanti Turpin has had so much value in the special teams in the you know, field position throughout the entirety of

this half of the season. So what worries me in that regard to is how he could have brought value was through special teams to have a little bit of a backup. He wasn't going to play special teams um, all right, So fourteen fifteen sixty Okay, So he played with the Saints for three years. Now, he they then had to make a decision on at draft time his fourth year whether to pick up the fifth year option.

They didn't even pickup. No, so he got trade. He was he was a start free agency trade after three years, okay, so they were about to have to make that decision, right, Okay, so they decided they traded him to the Saints with a fourth round pick for a first round pick, which they used on an offensive tackle. Okay, so they they

they made that decision. They weren't going to sign him long term, right, a second contract and with a year with actually two years of the ability to keep him, they traded him to New England and got something for him. They made that decision, let's get the most that we can get out of him, right here, yeah, okay. A year later he was then, which was April of twenty eighteen,

he was traded by the Patriots to the Rams. So for another first round pick, his contract would have been up right, right, And I'm not sure if the Patriots had picked up his fifth year option or not, but anyway, regardless,

a year later, he's traded for another first round. So It's not like these teams are letting him go, right, they are getting first round picks in return for him, but they thought that first round pick was more valuable than which in both cases they used those first round picks on offensive tackles, by the way, which we have determined that offensive tackles are more valuable if you can

find him in the first round. And then two years later he was traded by the Rams to the Texans for a second round pick, which the Rams used for Van Jefferson. And I believe his name came up here at that time also. And the other reason that the speculation was about him here is because Robert Prince, the Cowboys receiver's coach, was with the Texans last year, so

he knows what Brandon Cooks is all about. Anyway, but we can we can talk about it after the fact because it didn't happen, and so we're not infringing on somebody else's player, right, So um, But anyway, and then there was other guys that, I mean, people wanted a lot.

What did they get for Judy Um when they ended up trading him, And I think he got a pretty high I mean, he was a former first round pick right, Yeah, sure, he was with them to Denver, right right, so, and I would imagine that one would have been a little bit expensive too, so so. And then the other thing you have to factor in is the fact that you

know you spent that money on Michael Gallops. He's your second guy, and a lot of times that third guy's just got to be somebody to supplement the first two. And you know James Washington will be back at some point, either for the Green Bay game or I would imagine for Minnesota. So you made that decision in the offseason that you know he would be your third guy, not knowing he was going to get hurt. And then Noah Brown steps up, and you know has been decent so far.

He's got the second most catches on the team, twenty five for three thirty nine in a touchdown. All right, back on Judy, Now, what did you say that? What did they get for him when they traded? They didn't trade him, Oh they did. The asking price was too high. That's why I was confusing. That's what happen. So I'm saying Judy wasn't traded. So I'm sitting there searching, and I got to confirm before no he was. That's what Claypool got. Claypool got traded from the Steelers to the

Bears and there was a second round pick. They got a second for that. Yeah, right, And he's not a lead receiver that it depends, I mean, it depends maybe for the Bears. Yeah, I mean, he definitely is for the Bears because they didn't have much go in there anyway, you know, And we'll see how he develops in his career. And he's a different type receiver than what Brandon Cooks is. So but anyway, so now here we are with the Cowboys wide receiver situation, and we'll see when James Washington

comes back. But there there's a veteran guy that they are counting on to get healthy and to maybe provide some juice in this offense. And you know, I'm I'm also cure used to see if Kavante Turpin gets worked into the mix a little bit more. Yeah. And Robert Prince, so the Cowboys assistant coach is not coordinators. The other assistance were available for interviews yesterday and Robert Prince addressed both of those guys, and he was talking about how Washington,

you know, gives him some deep speed. You know, he can run the deep out, but he could also run a deep post in man coverage. And his speed is still his speed. It hasn't Wayne since his days at Oklahoma when you know a state Oklahoma state. Sorry, he was a second second ended up being a second round pick for Pittsburgh if I remember correctly. Yes, so, um,

you know, we'll see what that gives him. And then you mentioned Turpin uh and and Prince said they've got a package for him and it's just a matter of calling the plays. But that let's let's expand that package. Yeah, that's why I said, and lets and I agree with you. And if you notice, he did play more in the slot this pass game as a receiver, not just a guy that's going to run a smoke screen or a or a jet sweep to the outside. So we'll be

interesting to see if they incorporate him. All right, let's go to the phone line. All right, we got Scott in New Jersey. Yeah, there you go, Hello Scott in New Jersey. What a trick or treat this is? You guys never take calls? You guys never take I guess Mickey's just a little too cranky sometimes. So we gotta, we gotta what we say with Mickey, we have to talking to him. Um, I know you guys um talking

about you know, receivers and trade. Trade line is over, you know what I'm I think the question is and I hope we don't have to bring it up again. But I just want to make sure that you think McCarthy's safe because of the way the team is playing. I mean, you know he's pulling the ball by fourteen and then in the second quarter. Um, do you think you fall? I think only because we're playing so fall folk. Well, Oklahoma and go Missouri. I can't believe that. Why I

actually watched them all Oklahoma's I've always watched. Now I keep my eye in Missouri and um and grambling stain. Um. I don't know why, but I appreciate the ball only because of you guys are fans. I appreciate the call and UM keep taking calls. I listen to you guys all the time. You were the breaker, the are the stuff good show. Hey, don't forget about girls talk. Boys talk either, sir. You know what the thing about boys for us? And listen, I do Bill jump in because

Christie Scales keep the girl. We listen to. We listen to UM the radio when we listen when we watch the game. I know, Christie Scales, the four o'clock is like when I'm making dinner, which I'm around. I'm bumping around a lot of times. I catch you on the reshow are you and the hanging with the boys? I have to I have to listen to these guys live because it's just a great show. Bill Jones, you were just so funny. You're awesome. Wow, we've heard that funny. Okay,

that's pretty funny. That's enough for you from you after that. Wow, Thanks Uncle Steve. I appreciate it, Uncle Steve. I forgot it was a funny line. Hilarious. I forgot what the question was. Something about McCarthy's job. Oh, that was one of the reasons we don't take phone calls, just because the call kind of went in and out. No, it sounded like he was swimming a little bit, sounds like

he's eating. His phone got muffled at times, I think, saying something about because they're playing well why yeah, except for the fact that they threw the ball at the end of the half, that it got intercepted and cost him a field goal. But yeah, there's no more hot seat. You know, the hot seat got turned off all of a sudden. Now they can get turned back up again. But where the hot seat comes in is national reporters that aren't here knowing what's really going on. So that

was the national reports here next week. Yes, first to be fired was Mike McCarthy before the season ever started, right, Yeah, shame on him for losing that playoff game last year. Who's on the hot seat in Green Bay next week? Yeah, Well that's what Jerry said coming out of the gates and training camp is let's clear this up. Mike McCarthy, is the guys your head coach? I mean, there was never a question anywhere, so I don't I don't think there was ever a question to begin with. That means

there's not a question now. But like you said, it could change, all right. Is there a hot seat in Tampa Bay? Is there a hot seat in LA There's a lot of teams that aren't newing what everybody expected them to do. Right. The NFC is just it's a very interesting, interesting scope of how things look right now. For then the AFC not much better. Yeah, I go aside from Buffalo, Kansas City and Kansas City. Ye, all right, when we come back here on mix shots, let's take

a trip to Las Cruses, New Mexico. Dr Yeah, we'll continue taking phone calls. Oh, there you go, mix shots in just a moment. I'm funny.

There's my favorite listener, Scott in New Jersey. You can call

anytime here. And you're only saying that because he said you were fine. That's the only reason you're saying that. All right, So Jess, how about you set up the next caller we have? All right, next caller is calling in from last this New Mexico. His name's Jimmy, but to me, his name's Dad. Hi Dad, Hey Dad, what's up? I'm glad you called in, Hey Dad? How you doing good? Nick? How are you guys doing? He had priority in the

lineup right. He was very eady. Yeah. Yeah. I've tried to call several times about tell you over the last few years. This is the first year that I haven't devotely spent my Monday through Friday listening to all the podcasts. I've been so overwhelmed with work. But usually my routine is don't don't bother me from eight in the morning till twelve in the afternoons, you know, Monday through Friday, and certainly don't bother me on Sundays. This is true.

See where I get, Dad, What do you do for living? I'm an insurance agent. I also sell fireworks. We have a large Okay, all right, Bill needs one of those two. Yeah. No, Dad's where I got the love of vaultings cowboys And yeah, so, Jess, did you play sports growing up? I wasn't cheering dance, but yeah it was that can be in pretty intentional. It's very competitive and yeah, I've got my competitive nature from that and from my dad. I mean, I think my dad and I have the same work ethic as

far as we don't stop, we don't give up. And yeah, without without him, I never would have made it here. So thanks Dad and mom. Mom's listening to well well. And I also coached for for about thirty years wrestling, which football, but yeah, but very very involved in sports. No, but he's also the reason that I know all these names, and and uh I was Dad. I was telling Mickey the other day about when when to training camp and bumped into him and sent you the picture and was

freaking out. Yeah, I've got to see their bill. I've got I've got a picture with Mick here and I'll passo when he came down right, Absolutely, I stood in line to meet Mick. There you go. We're devoted enough that we would drive to every home game or lie from here because we were season ticket holders as well, but COVID kind of slowed that down a bit. But we we for the you know, for the most part, go to almost every home game. So it's a long, long trek for us. How far? And he should be

commended because that line and now, Passo was long. I think they gave you a shirt too. I'm pretty sure they gave you a shirt that day. My brother and I think we did. Yeah, we did. How far? How about? Yeah? How far is La Scruss from from about Well, if you're driving, normally it's about a nine hour drive. But when yes, Dad, you're driving, you're not stating you're with me. We could get there at about six and a half

hours each. Dad don't admit that now. And the thing he would do is we would leave the day of the game, get to the game, go to the game, turn around and then drive back home. I mean sometimes we would stop, but yeah, definitely devoted there. But Dad, what is your question? I'm making you ask a question

on you? Well, my question is how do we keep getting I'm not going to call a player out because that's not nice, but one of our linebackers from getting washed out on all the damn run plays and being blocked out of it. It's driving me mad. All right, would you like to answer the question? I think I need a name with that linebacker. I don't I can't

believe you're talking about Michael Parsons. Like, no, I think he should drop back a little more, but absolutely no. It's unfortunately I like I like the wolf call, you know, mister Vanderish, but he you know, that's where I see a lot of the problems is he's just washed out and he's very easy to block and doesn't shed those

blocks very well. I think they're hoping to take care of some issues by the trade they made last week, which so he's been and I hate to do this to you, but he's been washed out so much that he leads the team with sixty three tackles. No, he's much better this year. I will I will say that, but you know on the big runs, it's always always

kind of at him. Well, what do you think, how do you think that happens because the linebacker, the deep offensive lineman don't get job And it's a twofold question. You're right, right, I have a question. Three hundred pounds three twenty against two fifties probably not a good matchup. Well, and how is he doing compared to this time last season, because I think this season he's really done a better job and bought into the dan Quinn scheme and coaching

and all of that. He spoke very highly of dan Quinn. I think compared to last year, that'd be I think he's he's improved over the last couple of years because he's got the playing time, he's healthy, he's healthy. Yeah, right, And as he said when he was asked a similar question back at the home run derby, so that would have been made. You know, somebody said, it looked like you picked your game up at the end of the year.

You were making more tackles, you were more involved, and his answer was that's when what you get when I'm on the field more, meaning they were not playing him early and wasted snaps on Jalen Smith instead of having Layton Vanderish out on the field. All right, Dad, we appreciate you calling and listening. Thank you, guys, appreciate you taking my call and look forward to hearing anymore. All right,

thanks a lot. All right, Producer Supreme, you told me there's another caller on the line to go, and I did not hear who that caller was. It's Gary in New Mexico, Mexico. All of my New Mexico, Mexico people are what you got? Gary? Hi? Gary? Hi? How y'all doing just I'm from Cloud Crofts? Well just a little bit loss, crucis Yes, all right. I want to defend the Cowboys front office. I'm glad they didn't make a trade. You know, everybody said when Tyrn Smith got hurt, we

need to go trade for a tackle. They just stuck to the plan. How's that worked out? When Dak went down, you had people saying, we need to go find a quarterback. They just stuck to the plan. How's that worked out. Mike McCarthy is a good coach and he knows what he is doing, and he has done an outstanding job of building this team, of drafting and developing players. The personnel department is excellent at drafting and developing players. Let's

just let this playout. This is a good, solid football team and we just need to relax and trust that they know what they're doing. There. You go, all right, Gary, Hey, when you go six and two, I really I can appreciate that. I think I think that's perfectly said. And if it's worked, er, what is it. If it's not broke, don't fix it. I think it's working. And I really think it wasn't until this week when you had Dac back you could really see what you were working with.

You can't. You can't know what you have if you have your backup quarterback. And that's that's just what it is. Right. Cooper Rush did his job. He won games. All the flowers to Cooper Rush for keeping this team afloat, but I think, really, now you see what the Cowboys are going to be capable of a DAC back. So so really the only move they made was releasing Tristan Hill. Yeah,

we haven't talked about that yet. So Triston Hill let go yesterday and there was a log jam there and I think they looked at it and said, number one, he's only played twenty five percent of the snaps so far, he's got six tackles. Number two, he's in the last year of his contract, and no matter that he's a second round pick. I think sometimes you have to take out your racer and say, Okay, who's expended Bowl and who might be coming back, and who are we developing.

And I know he lost the year to the ACL tear, and when you come back the next year, it's pretty tough. I thought he was having a really good training camp and then he just kind of disappeared and they had him in the rotation. The other thing is, I just don't know how he fit into the culture of this team. It just I don't know. There was something about him

that didn't really pan out. So I think when they were looking and saying, well, at some point you're gonna get Terrell bash him back, you did get Jonathan Hankins. And that's the move the Cowboys made. Just because you don't make a trade at the deadline doesn't mean you

didn't do anything. They picked up a guy and with what two three practices, he ended up with four tackles in the game, And you basically have traded Tristan Hill for Jonathan Hankins, right, and Hill find out at three o'clock this afternoon, Triston Hill may still be available and they could sign them back to the practice squad if they indeed want to. Otherwise, maybe they just washed their

hands of them and said, okay, enough's enough. But Hankins, so, like I said, he ends up with four four tackles in the game. Um, and Triston Hill has six in eight games, well seven because he didn't play this last one. So uh yeah, that was the trade off. And I think you kind of like to have a big body in there to keep people off of Layton Vanderish by the way, Oh, Mickey makes sense, all right, Uh, let's take a phone call. Yeah, we'll take another on this segment,

Jim and McCall and you're next up on mix shots. Jim, he's John. I'm sorry. I can't read my own right, It's my fault. It's fine. And Bill makes fun of my handwriting. Well, I thought it was funny when when the last time he took phone calls, somebody called Bill Steve.

You know, I took that as a compliment. Stephen Jones, Yeah, I didn't want to call since since the uh Uh, I guess it was three weeks ago, a victory Monday, when Emerson was supposed to have just the name for for the no for the for the defense, the nickname for the defense. Yes, yeah, and so h at the end of at the end of the broadcast, you know, they y'all played the song again, the Dallas Stampede song,

and and so it kind of hit me. Then you know, uh, they say stand up, and then they have the charge stampede, and so I thought it Doomsday Stampede would be uh good, some question. So all right, that's what if we just call him the stam Peters, it'd be kind of an inside jokes. It's we're the only ones playing. It's not even an inside here. It is here. It is Hey, John, would you like to sing it? Here? John? I don't. I don't call the down got we got stampede playing

right now. You can sing it for us. I didn't. I can't understand what they're saying. I'm part of the song. So I thought, oh, they're asking me to see, by the way, neither can we. All right, well, we appreciate the call. Thanks, all right, stam Peters. We can make that a noun, right, you just did Stam Peters. You can do anything because they rushed the quarterback. So well, yeah, I bet they're still leading the league in sacks are yes,

thirty three yep. So there you go. They're stampede. You know, you think about it. We talked about it. How many times did David Carr get sacked his rookie season. It was like sixty or seventy times. Yeah, so the Cowboys are on a pay Okay, if it was a sixteen game regular season, they're on a pace for sixty six sacks with an extra game seventy probably post to seventy, which would be a club record because the club record is sixty two since sacks were counted in nineteen eighty two.

So before that, we've counted the sacks since then, haven't we. Well, we got through that the other but I don't think they counted them for the whole team. They just counted them for All you gotta do is add up the individuals and you got the whole team. Yeah, the individuals of the recount. Yeah. Yeah, so we're gonna say it's all time, Okay, in the sixty year history of the franchise, Stamp Peter, what's the record again, sixty two sixty two season?

What it was eighty five? I want to say, okay, because it was the also the year they had a bunch jo interceptions. Okay, and Emerson played a big role. That's fine. She just couldn't let it go. We continue with more phone calls on a special edition of mix Shots with Jess Navarrez. In just a moment, we paid how much for those lessons? She's doing great? Oh yeah, totally. Can you pass me a Pepsi zero sugar? Great job, honey, Oh look at that. That's not the end, No way.

Now it's time for the encore. You know what, You're right? Five times? Not enough times for everyone who traded in rock concerts for their kids recitals. You've compromised enough. Pepsi zero sugar, That's what I like. Nobody protects you from Mayhem like all State. You hear that I'm a torrential downpour. Torrential What does that even mean? It means you can't see out of your windshield and if you have the wrong car, sures you might have to make it rain

to fix your bumper. So switch to all State, save money and be better protective from Mayhem like me based on coverage in them it's selected center to terms, conditions and availability.

Okay, okay, two two nine seven? Who would you get twenty two? Okay, yeah, it's I go in it. Or you could go Bob Hayes way back. Okay, you can go nine and seven if you want it, you can, or you could go ninety seven. Okay, okay, I see what you're doing here.

Who's your ninety seven Leroy Glover? Yes, he would have been the best, although ninety seven. Uh, Hatcher was pretty good, right. Uh. And that's how I remember my license plate number two right there you go. Yeah, why do you need to remember it? Well, just in case when you check, you know what I have to remember? The reason? Yeah, the reason I try to remember my I recognize my license plate in a big parking lot I at the stadium, remember where there's a lot of black fifties out there.

I know my lines. Oh that's it, you know. Or you can just click the remote and the lights come on. Take I've taken his license plate. Stephen Jones. My life was that all the air producers that was Yeah, I've taken care of that part. Problem by leaving my bike rack on top of my car. Oh that's good. A right, And with all this discussion, I have forgotten who our nexcholar is New Braunfels Anthony and the New Bronfels Home of the Unicorns. Oh my gosh, yeah, come with the

unicorn that's right, high school team in New Braunfels. We figured out what you were talking of, sir. We didn't think they were growing them there. Yes, I did. My kids actually go to the new school Davenport Wolfs. Look them up there. They're coming up four a new one on Bill. That's good, Bill, write it down. They're in the same district with New Bronfels and Kenyon High School. No, we're four A they're six safe, but we're coming up slowly brand new school three years open and we're seven

and one looking into the playoffs. All right? Now, Are the Rangers of Smithson Valley in that district too? Yeah, we're but uh a Kenyan Lakers our divisional district there you go, all right? Than ninety seven? Would you consider Tuckle Tuckle Charleton? Yeah, a real funny guy. Okay, my question is real quick again. Yeah, I don't want to do that Um, well, we consider giving up so many yards. Uh, if we only hold teams to maybe less than twenty

four twenty points, would that be okay? If we do give up over one hundred two hundred yards, if we keep the teams to you know, twenty or negative points. Actually, actually that's a very good question because when Dan Quinn on Monday was asked about the number of yards that they gave up rushing, his answer was, well, what irritated me more is the rushing touchdowns or the amount of

touchdowns we gave up. He goes, I don't really care about the yards, but it was the touchdowns that the Bears ended up scoring, and he goes, and we have to be better or with that because they ended up giving up what four touchdowns and going into the game, the only team that had scored more than one touchdown against the Cowboys was the Eagles, and that was was it three or was it two? And then? But anyway,

I've got it right. But anyway, that's what he because they ended up having to run the ball forty times to get to two forty. Um, so I guess that's six yards to carry. There was one big long one, right, especially if a team is three touchdowns behind and they're still a quarter and the only thing they can do is run the ball. Then you just keep on running the ball. It's it's kind of like and even with

passing the ball. I don't That's why I don't get caught up in whether a team necessarily is the number one right total defense, total defense, they go do it by total yards. Well, there's a lot of times where teams get up by four touchdowns in a game, and then so the team that's behind is throwing the ball so much that they're going to rack up yards. You're playing a prevent defense and you're going to give up yards, but you don't want to give up, you know, a

explosion explosive play for a touchdown. So they gave up three touchdowns to the Eagles. Would they end up with twenty six points? Was that the score in that game? Yes? It was twenty six, right, twenty six seventeen. This game, they gave up four touchdowns. And I think that's what irritated dan Quinn the most more than and he brought I mean he mentioned it. You know, okay, the yards or yards, but we can't give up that many touchdowns. Yeah, So I think that might answer his question. And I

think that's where he was going. Yards or yards, but it's the amount of that, right, touchdowns you give up is what you have to be careful about. So at seven touchdowns in two games, in the other six they gave up five touchdowns. I believe it was total. Yeah, because it was. It was one one, one, one, one, three and then zero. I just want to emphasize that. I want to emphasize my point. Okay, every good, guys

got it? All right? We're in our last minute here of a special edition of mix Shots with Jes Navarrez. So what are we going to do on our by weekend? Um? I have to start packing. I am moving, so my mom's actually coming this weekend, so I have to start packing everything up. And you good. I have to work Saturday, but I've got three out of four days off. Oh we got nothing to do, nothing to do already tape

to Mike McCarthy. Actually we're doing that tomorrow tomorrow, so I guess I only have two of the three days. But that's only a half hour. Yeah, that's right. Yeah, but how long does it take to do a half hour show all the all the all the retakes we have to do it. It takes about three hours and the interviews different people. Right, yeah, yeah, well that's good. I am taking in a University of Missouri football game. Oh, it's just your annual trips to Columbia. Yes, who you'll

knock it off this week? The Kentucky Wildcats. There you go, going to be three in a row, three wins in a row. Wow, I've beaten Vanderbilt, beat in South Carolina, Spencer Rattler in South Carolina. Yeah, and now you take on Mark Stoops Kentucky Wildcats, who are reeling a little bit. Well that's good because they've beaten Missouri the last few times. And the last time I saw him play Kentucky it

was in a driving rainstorm in Lexington. And guess what the temperature and the weather report is for kickoff on Saturday rain? Right, it's like, give me a fifty degrees. It's football weather for you. Yeah, it's November football with Are you a big college football fan? I can't say I am okay, but I respect it. It's football. Yep. So rain's okay when you spend a lot of time this weekend watching football. Rain is okay when you're in the press box. But when you're sitting in the stands,

not so much fun. Ye, what's Oklahoma got? We got Baylor? Oh yeah, here or there and it's in Norman. Okay, all right, I could go on and on about this. I want are you going no, it's gonna enjoy it. We're like, have you seen us play this year? Well, I'm not going to watch that. It's for the fellowship. In fact, the game is not even televised, no way, it's streamed. Streams doesn't count three or whatever it is that that big twelfth conference only they only have five

games a week. Okay, you're ten teams in the league. You got five conference games and only they only have TV windows for three of the games. Two of them are stream and owe you and the defending champion Baylor Bears and the time conference champion in the last twenty years, suitors. They can't get on TV. That's why. That's that's why we're heading. Yeah, we want to play the Missouri Tiger. That's right, all right? Soos, thank you all for letting me crash your party the last two days. It's been
