January 15, 2026: Another Cowboys season ends without a playoff run, so George and Bob do what they always do: try to make sense of it. They dig into the aftermath of the season, including the firing of the defensive coordinator, Jerry Jones’ end-of-year comments, and why Dak Prescott’s post-season quotes struck a nerve. The conversation turns to roster construction in today’s NFL, whether it’s smarter to build around an elite quarterback or an elite defense, and what recent playoff teams tell us about how close or far away the Cowboys really are. There’s also a look at Hard Knocks in-season, what it reveals about coaching, leadership, and the human side of the league. The episode wraps with thoughts from a wild playoff weekend and a preview of something special next week: a full revisit of Super Bowl X and the 1975 Cowboys, fifty years later.
