Six o’clock live tonight on the program this morning. Three items. That’s right. Three breakfast items for you. And we start with the rosy view of friend of the show, Michael Irvin, who predicts going game by game through the schedule, the Cowboys are going to start nine and one. Diddly diddly dink. Okay, let’s go, man. If the Cowboys start four and one, five and one, even the most cynical of you, and you know who you are, will start not just talking playoffs, you’ll start talking Super Bowl. And I won’t blame you. Urban says nine and one. And then he says they’re going to hit that hit a tough patch, go three and four down the stretch and finish 12 and five. But 12 and five could win the division. Who does Michael Urban think you’re going to lose to? He thinks you’re going to lose to the Packers in week four. And I think like me, that’s cuz he’s seen it. This is what I see. I I see the Cowboys play the Packers and I see what happens. He’s got the Cowboys losing to the Eagles in week 12, meaning they lose at home, but that has Michael Michael says then they’re going to win week one. That’s a beard scratcher. He has the Cowboys losing to the Chiefs on Thanksgiving. Is he Packers, Eagles, Chiefs? Yeah. And then Lions. So that’d be back to back, right? Oh, that’s back to back to back. which we’ll get to in a minute. That’s Eagles week 12, Chiefs week 13, Lions week 14. At which point your Super Bowl dreams at 9 and one you you might you might not cancel your reservations, but you might make them cancel a bowl. And then uh Michael has the Cowboys losing to Washington in week 17. 12 and five would be an incredible achievement. All things considered, uh, the new installation in the shotty era, the integration of George Pickkins, which again, you look at the Cowboys starting lineup on offense now and depending on what happens at running back, it it looks a lot different than it did two weeks ago. A lot different. So, that’s good. Michael Irvin has him down for 12 and five, but has three straight losses during that gauntlet, which we’re going to get to more in a moment. Uh, and I’ve seen many of your predictions and I’m interested in more. So, feel free to type those in. Got 13 and4 would be awesome. Sodto, if you don’t think we’re going undefeated, you’re not a true Cowboy fan. Joshua looks like 11 and six to me. Chuck Joe, Vegas says six and 11. And we did that game by-game breakdown the other day. I don’t I haven’t seen where Vegas has specifically said six and 11, but in my breakdown with the sports books, I’m going game by game. And I’ve got this one sports book having the Cowboys favored. That doesn’t mean they think they’re going to win or necessarily think they’re going to win or lose that game. And so much can change, but the Cowboys are favored in only six games. I still say I would take that bet all day long. And I’m the gambling man. If Las Vegas wants to give me six as the overunder, I I’m so in on the over. That That doesn’t look that difficult to me. That doesn’t look that difficult to me. Item two. So, I guess they were at some charity softball or something. CD Lamb and George Pickins together at last. And I must say, so far so good. And there’s three components here that have come together just right in terms of dealing with the the creation of an image in public that needs to be reflected in reality. The first one came from George where he’s saying, “I’m I’m not really familiar with number one and number two receiver. I I grew up watching football.” He’s 24. I grew up watching football. And the good teams had two good receivers. And if that guy was open, we threw it to him. And if that guy was open, we threw it to him. Good. Good. Good answer. I just want to fit in. Blah blah blah. Then comes Stephen Jones. and Stephen and uh we we’ve all given Stephen a few kicks in the Gortox for things he said in public that don’t quite wash um you know air quote air quotes and stuff like that. Um he had one the other day. I think he was talking to Albert Brer and he said, “Yeah, I don’t understand this all-in thing. People talk of course you’re all you’re always all What do you mean you don’t understand it? Your dad’s the one who said it and then did but didn’t mean it.” We’re going to do more on that tonight. By the way, the uh Jones versus Jones on the All-In. But Stephen said something really smart. He said, “We we don’t look at George as a two.” Remember Steven famously said, “We’re looking for an explosive number two receiver.” Uh AD Big, the thing about the predictions is injuries, not just on the Cowboys, but the other teams. And absolutely, AD and the just the eb and flow. For instance, I I’ll give you a negative eb and flow. You you lose to the Eagles. I’m sorry. You lose Yeah. You lose to the Eagles in week 12 and then lose to the Chiefs at home four days later, there’s going to be a negative EB and a negative flow with the Dallas Cowboys. It’ll be and it’ll be Shottenheimer’s job and Dak and Micah and others to try to steer that right so it doesn’t happen one more time when you play to Detroit. So, you’re absolutely right. The eb and flow of the season can change at all. Now along comes Cidi Lamb. And Cidi had tweeted about George and about the situation. No egos. And I’m not saying he tweeted it at George. He just tweeted it about the George trade. Last two seasons. CD Lamb putting up fantastic numbers and notable as the team’s number one receiver the last two years. He has 1,700 more yards than the second most productive guy around here. That is by far the biggest gap in the NFL. I want you to think about that for a second. Good job by Richie Whitten digging this up. the the the total yard difference in the last two years between the Cowboys number one receiver and anybody else on the roster as a number two receiver is 1,700 yards. No team has anything like that. So again, Stephen Steven’s the one that said we need an explosive number two in this interview. He said, “Yeah, people have been saying we need a number two.” No, no, Stephen, not people. You I don’t get it. I don’t get it. Air quotes. You And then they went and did it. And now Steven have spoken, Pickkins have spoken, and now Lamb has spoken. And at this charity event, he says, “We’re both number ones.” And then Pickicket is standing right there and he goes, “Yeah.” All right, now we’re talking because egos do have to be swallowed in this circumstance. And we’ve seen CD Lamb with his emotions on his sleeve at times on the sideline. We’ve seen that. But we’ve never seen it in the form of selfishness. We’ve just seen it in the form of frustration. Gatos, everybody, please hit the like button. Yeah, would you please do that? Uh, that’s good for all. Hit the like button. Do it right now, please. Thank you. Lamb, four-time Pro Bowler two years ago, 135 catches, 1714 yards, 12 touchdowns. Arguably the best season for a receiver in Cowboy history. And he is now basically saying everybody wants their numbers. Lamb is saying it’s not A and it’s not B. It’s not one and it’s not two. There’s none of that. You look over there, this is his quote. You look over there, you see a one. You look over there, you see another one. So do what you got to do NFL defenses with that. It’s nice to know that Dak Prescott has this incredibly gifted security blanket and CD lamp. You know what he can do and I don’t blame Cowboy Nation you at all for being excited number one at seeing what George Pickkins can do. But even more than that at this early stage and we’ll see some of that tomorrow. Even more at this early stage just now they’re hanging out together. Chuck Joe Fish, does this offseason feel different in a positive way to you? 100%. Because if you go back to a year ago, instead of gaining a dozen guys, they lost a dozen guys. Instead of making four trades, this team’s made four trades this year. Last year at this time, Ezekiel Elliott was the big news and that was it. And we knew it wasn’t big. So yeah, it this is a complete turnaround from where they were a year ago. Stephen the other day said, “Yeah, we’ve been a lot more active this year than we were last year.” You think lame and it was by design, by the way. Lame got blow it up. And finally, item three. We’ve talked about that gauntlet from weeks 12 through 17. And I’m particularly focused on the three Eagles, Chiefs, and Lions. And here’s why. The Vikings this year aren’t going to be as good as they were last year, right? I think the Chargers are overhyped and I think you’re going to split with the Commanders. But from weeks 12 to 17, they play the Eagles, Chiefs, Lions, Vikings, Chargers, and Commanders. All teams that won at least 11 games last year. Cowboys will therefore be the first team in NFL history to play six consecutive games against teams that all won 11 plus the previous year. They didn’t, as I said the other day, they didn’t do this on purpose to screw the Cowboys. It just happened. Uh, and as AD Big says, that doesn’t mean that this year’s Vikings or Chargers or whoever are going to be great. Um, somebody posted that tidbit onto social media. And who was the first to comment on it? Of course, Micah. And Micah’s response is, “Bleep them. Let’s play ball.” And rather than Cowboy Nation to some degree being excited by the new leader said, “We don’t care about the schedule. Let’s go. The response was somewhat negative from you. Uh the number of you who just wish Micah would stop that, who didn’t look at it like it’s a five-word battlecry to be inspired by. Bleep them. Let’s play ball. And in summary, what we’re going to have to do with Micah, because it’s not going away, the contract that he’s getting soon enough will further empower him to say more. The change in leadership, the departure of Tank Lawrence, in particular, has empowered him to say more. So, I’m reminded of the old song, It’s impossible. Tell the sun to leave the sky. It’s just impossible. It’s impossible. Ask a baby not to cry. It’s just impossible. Ask the sun to leave the sky. Ain’t happening. Ask a baby not to cry. Ain’t happening. Ask Micah not to comment on every single thing that happens in the world, Cowboys and beyond. Ain’t happening. You don’t have to love it. You don’t have to embrace it. You don’t have to enjoy it. We might as well accept it. Fish at 6 tonight. We’re giving away the goodies. And all day tomorrow will be inside the star. I can’t stress this enough. Cowboyscountry.com needs you.
