It's our number five of the G-Bag Nation on 1053. The fan, hope you're having a fantastic day. We're about to relive the Cowboy's Glorious week one victory, little two guys, one booth, including the play-by-play debut of a member of the G-Bag Nation who can now say he's done Cowboy's play-by play on the radio. That's pretty cool. Christian McCaffrey out tonight. - He is out. Inactive. - Yeah, this is a stutter. Yeah, it's still apparently not ready to roll. - He's half in his ankle, been a problem. - Yeah, so it'll be Jordan Mason starting tonight, fantasy owners out there. If you can scramble the waiver wire, or if you just handcuffed Christian McCaffrey, that was the smart play. That's what I did in our fan league. So I am going to be able to play Mason in this pinch. But hour and a half before kickoff, you find out Christian McCaffrey's going to be inactive. That is a bummer right there. - Yeah, 'cause in our fan league, you had the number one pick, right? And so you did the McCaffrey, but you did the smart thing. - I handled that. - I was nervous. - Yeah, that is definitely a bummer. But if I'm a Niners fan right now, I'm like, hey, this is what you should be doing. Your week one is really not that important if you're a team like the Niners. You got to make sure that Christian McCaffrey, and we've seen since he's been traded there, throw offense is completely different. If you don't have him, it doesn't seem like that offense works quite the same way. So if he's even somewhat banged up, I'd be like, fine. Let him sit. I bet this Mason kid will go out there and have a night. - The other Niners are tough, but you take away Debo, Trent Williams, or Christian McCaffrey, and I think they are very beatable. And they've had good injury luck so far with McCaffrey since they traded for him. Take it away, gentlemen. All right, if you're new to this every single year here on the home of the Dallas Cowboys, we've got a nine hour game day with pregame, the game, and then post game. What we like to do is try and get anything great or funny or terrible that happens during that nine hour game day and replay it in a segment we like to call two guys. - One booth. - All right, let's do that other thing. We have to start with the pregame fiasco that directly involves me. I got to own it. It's me and Aaron Andrews. And it was a super struggle. But before we play that sound earlier this morning, when Sean and RJ were going to play the sound to relive my super embarrassing awful moment, Peyton was setting it up and listen to just how disrespectful Peyton is here, just taking shots at me, leading into my 90 seconds of embarrassment with Aaron Andrews. - Man, you guys, if you guys thought Tom Brady had a rough first day on the job, Eric Chiafalo looked like a fan phenom out there. First day. - Oh! - Those shots, fuck, what else the heck. - Did that Blake? - This was awful. No, no, no shots at Blake. - Take that Blake. Blake is a fan of what are you talking about. - Wow. - And I'm going to end up meeting it like that. I was just saying first day on the job. So that's what I was getting at there. No shots to Blake, I love you. But man, this is, so this is the Cowboys pregame with Eric Chiafalo, Brian Brauss of the G-Bagnation. And they had Aaron Andrews on of Fox. Notice how I said Andrew's last name, by the way. So Eric's going through this interview. - Hey, Peyton is correcting you on names. You know you done messed up. - And this is about a minute 40 of just pure goldness of Eric and it's basically his first day on the job. - Pure goldness! - Your goldness? - His first day on the job here on the pregame show. - Well, there's Peyton limping into a sound bite there as he struggled to speak as well. - Yeah. - So now he stumbles over himself. - And Peyton calling the kettle black there. - Shut up, Peyton. - Peyton was lashing out a little bit because I had to get on Peyton as the producer of the pregame show yesterday because he did the thing where we have a heart out at some point and even though we're right here in studio, he's in my ear. - Go to break! - 30. - Go to break. - 20. - This is annoying you 10. - I said, at the end. - I hate it. - I said Peyton, never do that again. - Yes! - Why would you, you told me what the heart out was. I know what it is. Why would you tell me the heart out in the first place if you're just gonna come in my ear while I'm trying to talk and get this thing to the commercial break heart out and you're gonna be peppering me in my ear with nonsense as if I don't know what the heart out is. - Bless the rookie mistakes. - He was embarrassing. Almost as embarrassing as Peyton being on the microphone. I'm surprised they still allow him to use that thing. - Yeah, I can't believe he has his own segment. That's unbelievable. But I'm with you. He started doing that to me yesterday during the half in the post game and I'm like, you've given me the heart out. As soon as he starts doing that, I'm starting to think to myself, like he's messed the heart out up. It's actually earlier than now. - I'm starting to see what I hear. - Which has happened before. - Yeah, so do I need a break right now? Like now you're confusing me. Just shut up, stick to the time and let us be professionals or try to be. - Yeah, shut your damn mouth, Peyton. All right, there's my lashing out for the moment, but here's the pregame disaster. Yeah. As we kick off a brand new NFL season here on the fan and she will of course be alongside Kevin Burkhardt, Tom Brady, Tom Renaldi, a no question about it. Favorite guest of ours here on the official pregame show of America's team. It's Aaron Andrews, ladies and gentlemen. Andrew, happy game day to you. I guess besides CD there on that cut, we can now include Dak, right? - We actually thought Dak was gonna sign that contract the day after our interview. We did it, I think, on a Tuesday and we thought that's when it was gonna happen, but regardless for him and his sweet little family, so glad it got done and happy for Cowboys fans too. - Yes, absolutely. So is that something we can expect today on the Fox pregame show you're sitting down with Dak? - Well, it already happened. The Fox pregame show, yeah. - Uh oh. - Oh, well, okay. - That was a good dude. - Okay, fair enough, fair enough. I was thinking before the Cowboys kick off, but that's my apologies. - Don't worry, don't worry. So you weren't watching, but that's okay. It went well, it went great. - You know, I mean, you can multitask with the best of all, but I'm here doing radio, watching television. I can't do the same things. We're not all as talented as Aaron Andrews. So what's the vibe around this football team right now? - I think the vibe is just, you know, excited. It's week one. Everybody's undefeated, right? Everybody's talking about Super Bowls except for the Kansas City Chiefs. That was from their pregame show. I don't know if you got a chance to watch that as well, but I don't know if you watch pregame shows. - Well, Aaron, you're the best in the business. We appreciate the time as always, and in this commercial break, we're going to go listen to that pregame Dak interview. Yeah. - Yeah, what the heck? - Sorry about that, Aaron. You're the best that we appreciate it. Aaron Andrews, ladies and gentlemen. Holy smokes, could that have gone worst? - Start. I mean, when you talk about first impressions or everything, I just completely asked the bet on that. - Okay. - So which one do you feel worse about? - I feel, you know, I think I actually feel worse about the Andrew line. I didn't even realize in the moment that I had said that. We were getting texts about it. So after I was like, did I actually call her Andrew and brought us myself looking at me like, yeah. Unfortunately, you know, you did. You did make that stupid mistake. So they were both awful and they kept me up last night. - Yeah, they really did. - Well, as a broadcast veteran, I would say it gets much worse than that, dude. If you're beating yourself up over that. - Yeah, she didn't seem. - It's a high standard. - I think she was like kind of actually having fun with it a little bit less than that. - I think she was, I really wasn't upset at her. I just felt like a schmo. - Nah, don't worry. I gotta do this first game. - Who cares, it's okay. - Yeah, you know, pre-season form. I didn't play in the pre-season games. - No, right. - So I'm still knocking the rust off a little bit. - We're on to New Orleans. - Yeah, it was. - I called her Andrew and that's the one where I'm like, where did that? - That was a little weird. - Where did that even come from? - But you did set up Aaron Andrews and then you just said Andrew. - And then yeah, I just, I don't know. I short circuited. - Yeah. - And I lead confidence all over the studio and I was not myself the remainder of the program. It was like, at the beginning too, that's what really sucked. - Yeah, that's tough. I mean, I got torn up on Tuesday, but at least I was right, you know. I was actually right in my situation. - Exactly, exactly. - And that's what hurts the most. - Doubling down. All right, who did you have on your bingo card is the Cowboys' first touchdown of the season? If you had Brandon Cooks, congratulations. - Third down, press got back. Looking deep to the middle. He's got a middle. Oh, Lord Cook, that's a goal line. It's Cooks for the Cowboys' first touchdown of the year. Brandon Cooks and the Cowboys have their first lead of the season on the Miller Lite first touchdown. - Doors take us to summers away. (upbeat music) Or winter adventures. And afternoon getaways.

Toyota, let's go places. - Under the game. - It really was a beautiful play. - Yeah. - World design. - Gorgeous. - They knew they got the blitz. I think they probably blew the pickup on. - Yeah, Brady even mentioned that, I think after the game, when he was talking about it, he was like, you know, Dad tried to call out of it, slide the protection. Maybe they didn't pick it upright, but hey, Dad read it right away, and you needed to go to the ball. - Yes, he did. All right, now we get to a little brown and down situation. - But on offense, time out's called. - Got a brown down. - Shaking up a brown out. It's a brown out. - Ever browned out before? - Brown out. - Ooh. - Unfortunately. - Yeah. - Ooh. - No, you're still on blackout. - Yeah, but you don't remember it, but it's a little face. - Oh, oh, oh, oh, okay, I got it. It's like spotty. - I had a different definition of the brown out. - Back to you, all chucked up, pooping in the pants, deal there. - How about our guy, Plano Zone, best kicker in the national football league? What a day it was for him yesterday, butter ombre. - 57, right hand. Line drive, boom. It's a pound of butter. - Guys, unbelievable. (crowd cheering) - Unbelievable. He is now 11 from 50 plus in his career. 11 of 11, 50 plus. Wow, what a kick. - It's a pound of butter. - Yeah, he's a superstar. I heard wall chuck in the post game, call him a weapon. He absolutely is that. - He's a weapon. - And that's wonderful. If this defense is gonna fly around like this and you're gonna have Turpin being electric in the return game and then you have a kicker that you can depend on literally anywhere from the field, my goodness, that is quite the advantage. And it is fair 817. There was also an added thing to the Aaron Andrews mistake at the end, as soon as that interview ends, I throw it to break and I'm so used to saying like next in the nation. And so I screwed that up as well. Where's the pregame show? It's not the nation. So I sent it to break and then I say, you know, coming up next in the nation or on the fan. And that was after 10 minutes of just a disaster segment. So that good call, 817, we should have kept that in there as well. There's a nice little exclamation point to my incompetence. Yes, wall chuck. Oh, okay, so now in the next clip here, now I'm driving home, right? And I'm just, oh no. You know, I'm thinking about everything and listening to the game and then all of a sudden, you know, the audio goes out and I'm like, wow, now my radio is going to crap out on me. This day is just getting better and better. Please, your air condition works now. Yes, and I'm switching over to different stations. Like, well, those stations are working like, oh no, we may have had like a technical issue and then boom. In comes the beautiful voice. Zach will check. But this is a big third down place. You mentioned third and 10. See if they could play the coverage across and get the pressure that they need here. Watson looking checks it down over the middle complete to Ford, but he's going to be short of the first down marker. Eric Kendrick's already making his presence felt as the Cowboys are going to get a three now. Yeah, Kendrick's overshone. This linebacker crew has been really aggressive here. You right here, we were looking at the pass rush. Micah Parsons going down inside with tank on the outside, just a little bit different look of having to deal with two quality edge rushers to the same side. Put a lot of pressure on the Browns there. For us to check that ball down. Cleveland having to punt. That was a third down and 11. They picked up eight on the pass to Ford over the middle. Turpin back to field. This kick from Cleveland. Five minutes and counting Cowboys leading seven to three fourth down and three for Cleveland. That's part one. I'm solid, right? I mean, it's okay. We're like, we're a little fluster. We're sitting there, we're hanging out. Just a couple of guys watching him next thing, you know, okay. We're watching the TV call in the game. Let's do this. So here was the end. We're waiting eventually. They're going to get this thing back. And the final call for myself and Brian first down in 10. And Rico Dattle goes right up the middle for a one yard pickup. Cowboys with the ball first and 10 at their own 10. It'll now be second down in nine. Zach Wollchuck alongside the Super Bowl winning scout, Brian brought us as we've got some technical difficulties in Cleveland. We'll get back out there with Brad and Babe here in just a moment. Prescott now under center play fake to Dattle rolling to his right. Hits Ferguson in the flat up to the 15 and he'll be tackled right around the 16 17 yard line there and that'll set up a third down and short for Dallas. Yeah, a really good design right there. We like the boots and the waggles. When you have a team that's really good with the pass rush, try and slow that rush down. Prescott with the good play fake going to his left and spins that thing to the right outside to Ferguson for a nice quality gain. We throw things back out to Brad and Babe. Oh, nice work, gentlemen. Try to make it so you paint it. You paint it great beautifully. I mean, I'm I'm driving home and I'm like, oh my gosh, what's going to happen here? And then here comes Volchuck and Brodus saving the day, acting like they've been there before. Give us a little seasoning. I think we could have something here. I think we got something there, yeah. Damn good stuff, gentlemen. All right, we all have to deal with temptations sometimes who had to deal with it yesterday. Are the notations a Motown group, Brad? They were. They, yes, they were kind of a forerunner of the four tops. Or the template. They're kind of a cross between the four tops of the temptations. Yeah, they're the notations. I love it. I love it. I love it. I absolutely love it. I love it. What do you guys mean? Where are we at with the grading of Brad and Babe to this point? I mean, are they are they season four? Yeah, it sounds like mid season form. I like the back and forth. Yeah, they're comfortable in the booth. Yeah, like they've worked together before. The comfort level is definitely there. Unlike Burkhardt and Tom. It was definitely not springy as Tom and Burkhardt at times. It was nice to have Trayvon Diggs back. And well, I think we had a new type of tackle here for Diggs. You don't see the leg whip often. But when you do, it's a clear cut. It's not like what you call that. It was usually on an offensive lineman. Almost never do you see it on a defensive back. You just said to heck with it, I'm not going to tackle you. So I'll just leg whip you down. Leg whip you down. Leg whip you down. Nice patented move right there. Did he use the ACL leg or did he use the other one? Actually, actually, if it's the ACL leg, I should watch the play. We'll figure it out. It just shows the confidence that he has in the reconstruction. I'm going to whip that leg out there, speaking of whipping it out. Here comes Turpin 60 yards to pay dirt. So Kavadi Turpin is going to stand at his 35 and wait for the punt from Corey B Yorkis. Yeah, and they have had a couple of good returns. I mean, he's been real close to breaking one. But a couple of nice returns, but looking for the big one, maybe it'll come right here with the Browns backed up a little bit. New York is standing in the middle of his own end zone. The kick actually comes from the goal line. A little end-over-end wobbler taken at the 40 by Turpin, trying to get up the middle 50-45, get a block. Right side line 30, he's pointing 20 to the 15 to the 10. There's your return. Kavadi Turpin for the 60-yard punt return. Oh, baby, we've been waiting for it and finally he cashes in. Now, when he started pointing, I got a little bit nervous. I'm like, we've seen this before, or you got to run into one-year-old guy. He almost ran into do so far. He was looking for somebody to run into. But thank God, he finished the play. And the Cowboys certainly finished the game. In fact, this one was over probably at halftime Cleveland fans knew it. Christie letting us know the Cowboy fans were letting the dog pound hear it. The Browns fans are just streaming for the exits. This looks like the final minutes of a preseason game instead of nine minutes left in the fourth quarter. It's basically just Cowboys fans left in the ones in the corner of the end zone are happy they did. Because Trafon digs in celebration through that ball he intercepted into the end zone. So some Cowboy fan is going home with the souvenir. You can hear them chanting, "Let's go Cowboys behind me." I think it's a fine. It is a fine. Wow. Well, let's get to hear Christie getting the mix there. I think she was able to be heard for the first half of the game. We're having the technical difficulty there. I didn't hear. Yeah. I mean, Gators are out even on Sundays. They don't take weekends off. Yeah, it happens. Yeah. Yeah, it was a vicious one. It's our first edition of two guys won booth. Thank you. Well, Chuck.
