Speaker 1: the Star. Now your hosts, Barry Church, Danny mccraig, Heckma Harrison,
Speaker 1: and Knew he Scruggs plays Lounge victory Monday. Let's right, yeah,
Speaker 1: oh yeah, oh yeah. Energy have to be kept at night.
Speaker 1: What a different a week? Yes, yes, and day week
Speaker 1: makes and all the credit goes to the players. The
Speaker 1: Cowboys beat Minnesota forty to three. Um body burger. He
Speaker 1: heard so much about how guys went to each other
Speaker 1: and hash things out amongst each other. That's how I
Speaker 1: supposed to be, man to man, no cheap shot. Just
Speaker 1: this is what it is. They said they would fix it,
Speaker 1: run defense. They fixed it. Yeah, he played better, played better.
Speaker 1: Ye Zeke came back ready to go. Kellen Moore called
Speaker 1: that heck of a football called that heck of a
Speaker 1: football game. Mike McCarthy way to be a head coach.
Speaker 1: Had everybody was where they needed to be that I mean,
Speaker 1: I just can't think of the last time I saw
Speaker 1: the Cowboys performed that well. In all three fate all three.
Speaker 1: I mean, heckman, yes, training can't. Training can't was scary
Speaker 1: and Chris Beam, you could attest we were out there. Man,
Speaker 1: the kicking situation was one of the biggest worries I
Speaker 1: had rolling out of it. But I don't know, and
Speaker 1: I kept saying it in a game in the league
Speaker 1: where twenty three percent of the games and side by
Speaker 1: three points less. Right now, you can't feel good about it.
Speaker 1: And they brought back bretma heart You're like, m this
Speaker 1: is the answer. Oh, I don't know what what this
Speaker 1: man discovered, but I'm glad I had him to my
Speaker 1: fantasy kicker yesterday. Did you have him? You got some point?
Speaker 1: He almost beat Yeah. Man put up some points a
Speaker 1: sixty order twice. That's so nice. You had to do
Speaker 1: it twice twice. I mean, you're lucky if you can
Speaker 1: make one in your career. This man has now made
Speaker 1: four and really made five because he had to do
Speaker 1: it again. Um, sinceational performance game balls all around, and
Speaker 1: if I'm the head coach, everybody get the game. You
Speaker 1: get it right? Everybody opinion here, everybody get one of that.
Speaker 1: That's me. Go ahead, take it here, man, listen, all
Speaker 1: I got to say, big newis is that I need
Speaker 1: people to keep the same energy bc BC all week
Speaker 1: we broke it down. Okay, we had to eat it
Speaker 1: elephant in the weekend. We took just little small bites
Speaker 1: at a time, did we not? And I said, look,
Speaker 1: I said, Barry, what do we need to do with
Speaker 1: where Trayvonn did versus justin Jefferson? Do we need to
Speaker 1: travel him? That was a question that we had discussions
Speaker 1: on the playoffs now as we kicked our feet up
Speaker 1: and we had to talk about this slowly. But it
Speaker 1: was so many things that went into that buck whooping
Speaker 1: that we unleashed on them. And let me tell you
Speaker 1: something new. It's a good news bad news kind of victory.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get you the bad news. First bad news
Speaker 1: is we're not gonna be able to keep our defensive coordinator.
Speaker 1: It's just you know what I said, I'm never let
Speaker 1: me let me tell you no, no no, it's okay, three
Speaker 1: days before thanks, let me say this, Let me say this. Okay,
Speaker 1: let me say this, let me let me get it out.
Speaker 1: Let me get it out. Okay, I got it out
Speaker 1: for a second. So what the bad news is? The
Speaker 1: bad news is then Quinn is showing the whole league
Speaker 1: that he is a defensive gurule the show that he
Speaker 1: put on the show yesterday. If you love defense, you
Speaker 1: saw what Dan Quinn did yesterday, blinding Mica up in
Speaker 1: the wide nine, all those different alignments that he had,
Speaker 1: the way that he was discovered, the disguising coverages. Kirk
Speaker 1: Cousins was in his funhouse yesterday. He was seeing double triple,
Speaker 1: all of that. But the good news is we got Michael,
Speaker 1: and he can't take Michael waiting. We got Michael. And
Speaker 1: I was sitting there looking at my television BC and
Speaker 1: I kept saying to myself, Man, the Minnesota Vikings can't
Speaker 1: be this arrogant. They can't be you. They are obviously
Speaker 1: they obviously have read their own news clippings. How did
Speaker 1: you come out with a scheme where you're going to
Speaker 1: block up the Bazuka on an island with Derrissau. I mean,
Speaker 1: you gotta put a tight end out there, you gotta
Speaker 1: chip him, you gotta do all kinds of things. Man.
Speaker 1: That was That was this arrogant of a scheme that
Speaker 1: I've ever seen a team come out. I mean, look,
Speaker 1: if you just believe in the media saying all we done.
Speaker 1: We ain't this. Come on now, don't you go out?
Speaker 1: Can't believe that you know better? The tape show you different.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna chill out, man, I got a whole another
Speaker 1: thirty minutes of this. Man, come on, stopped. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go ahead and get some of that. But to me,
Speaker 1: this was the first complete game that this team has
Speaker 1: played all season. Long run. You talk about offensively, defensively,
Speaker 1: We've already talked about money Maher out there and four
Speaker 1: for four basically five or five US two from sixty.
Speaker 1: The man had a heck of a game out there. Offensively.
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott was as efficient as you can get. I
Speaker 1: think it was what twenty two or twenty five, maybe
Speaker 1: twenty three. Man, it's remarkable what he was able to
Speaker 1: do out there. He was cool, calm and collected, had
Speaker 1: complete control over that offense out there. Tony Pollard once again,
Speaker 1: you had that thunder and lightning combination. You had Zeke
Speaker 1: out there tender rizing the defense, and you had Tony
Speaker 1: Pollard able to go ahead and bust those long runs.
Speaker 1: The man is looking explosive, extremely explosive. You talk about
Speaker 1: losing Quinn I'm not so sure we're gonna be able
Speaker 1: to bring Poller back. I'm just rules everything around cream.
Speaker 1: Yeah you can't, you can't, you can you can? I mean,
Speaker 1: he ain't going nowhere. I tweeted that during the game.
Speaker 1: I'm like, you can't let him out the building. And
Speaker 1: you got the franchise tag. So what Stephen Jones needs
Speaker 1: to figure out is what is what you know, what
Speaker 1: is the number to design him to, you know, from
Speaker 1: a contract standpoint, But he's coming back because you're not.
Speaker 1: You're not gonna franchise Sholtz again. No, you're not doing that.
Speaker 1: So Pollard gets it. And if you really really think
Speaker 1: about this is almost the best franchise tag you can
Speaker 1: get when you start talking about players, because it's gonna
Speaker 1: be one of the cheaper numbers running back. Running backs
Speaker 1: aren't are making, you know, crazy money. So this is
Speaker 1: almost in a ways like paying Sholtz. So it's not
Speaker 1: gonna be crazy. It's not. It's not taking More's twenty
Speaker 1: million dollars pass Rusher type money, quarterback money they had
Speaker 1: to pay for Dax. So your Pollard Pollard is is
Speaker 1: not going anywhere. Man. I don't see Pollard having that
Speaker 1: like holdout type mentality. I don't see him having that
Speaker 1: a but you never know. When care start talking, you
Speaker 1: never know, aging getting your air, you never know. He
Speaker 1: does talk. So on the defensive side of the football though,
Speaker 1: like you said, this was a masterpiece. This was a man.
Speaker 1: I don't know if Kirk Cousins owed the offensive lineman
Speaker 1: money or whatever the case may be, but they weren't
Speaker 1: blocking a soul out there. It was more like the
Speaker 1: lookout blocks. Hey, Kirk bart lookout because they come in.
Speaker 1: It was a masterpiece of hot dog was able to
Speaker 1: do it. Duck duck, my bad, oh my good. And
Speaker 1: like you said, how do you leave Parsons one on
Speaker 1: one the first third down of the whole game one
Speaker 1: on one beat the sack force fumble that turned the
Speaker 1: entire game around, and the way he was able to
Speaker 1: put matchups where he wanted to the curse sack was
Speaker 1: just masterful right there. He acted like he was man
Speaker 1: and man on Hockinson. The lineman obviously didn't understand what
Speaker 1: was going on split the season. The man got right
Speaker 1: in there and got the sack. So to me, I
Speaker 1: mean this was a total performance all the way around.
Speaker 1: Hats goes off coaches, players, everybody, Brett Mahurd and me
Speaker 1: gets the game ball four for four two from sixty.
Speaker 1: Basically the man bought out of control. But I mean
Speaker 1: this was a complete victory in my opinion. Producer Chris
Speaker 1: Beam Lady know that the franchise to according to over
Speaker 1: the caap dot com for running backs, twelve point six
Speaker 1: million dollars gladly so six What was he hitting at?
Speaker 1: I think it was what was it nineteen? And I'm
Speaker 1: maybe wrong. I'm not a brand in that running back ruin.
Speaker 1: He gonna have to come off with some of that
Speaker 1: bread instruct yeah, willingly, Yeah, what if it ain't willingly?
Speaker 1: I mean, we got a whole another conversation to talk about.
Speaker 1: That's a that's a whole other thing, and we don't
Speaker 1: have to do that, you know. You know me though,
Speaker 1: you here's the real simple thing. Okay. As much as
Speaker 1: you you well, I love Jay MacGuire, lines not show
Speaker 1: friends and show business. At the end of the day,
Speaker 1: they're not paying running back to a lot of money.
Speaker 1: And as much as you love Ezekiel the player, he
Speaker 1: can't go out and get nineteen million anywhere. Let me
Speaker 1: say this though, and I said this before on the show.
Speaker 1: We are seeing the reevolution of the running back position
Speaker 1: in the NFL. And if you look around, teams that
Speaker 1: are starting to get smart are starting to run the ball.
Speaker 1: They are starting to say, look, we're not gonna sit
Speaker 1: back can throw the ball forty fifty times, We're gonna
Speaker 1: put the ball in the belly of our running backs,
Speaker 1: and we're gonna run the ball thirty times, and we
Speaker 1: can have some success because he's one, at least one
Speaker 1: the three technique. They are not built for the damage
Speaker 1: that a running game can do to you. And you're
Speaker 1: starting to see that that mind state play dividends in
Speaker 1: the NFL. Oh don't look now. The Patriots are but
Speaker 1: seventy three, six and four. It's some teams out here
Speaker 1: having some success. Brian Dable, he's having success because he's
Speaker 1: doing what run the ball. Oh don't look now. The
Speaker 1: Tennessee Tits are gonna be successful because they have a
Speaker 1: dude that can run the ball. I'm okay. Players last
Speaker 1: by heck Ma Harrison, Burry Church, I'm NEWI scusts Danny
Speaker 1: McRae with the day off. Look, heck, I'm with you
Speaker 1: one hundred percent in terms of running the football. This
Speaker 1: show has always been about running football. Um, the issue
Speaker 1: starts to become now is how much are you going
Speaker 1: to pay for running backs? Considering where you're gonna have
Speaker 1: to go with Tony Pollard. Um, he cannot leave the building,
Speaker 1: I mean, can't feel important, cannot leave the building. And
Speaker 1: when you talk about twelve million dollars, twelve point six
Speaker 1: million on a franchise tag in nineteen million dollars together,
Speaker 1: that's too much money in the room. And if they
Speaker 1: if they were balking at paying twenty million dollars to
Speaker 1: Amari Cooper, Um, there's going to have to be a
Speaker 1: reduction in the price tag. Now here comes the thing
Speaker 1: about in terms of the reduction, is there a reduction
Speaker 1: and then a lengthening of the contract that you're right?
Speaker 1: You could you could say, all right, we're gonna bring
Speaker 1: this thing down, but we'll give you some more years.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's something they could do. OK. So this
Speaker 1: is something you can do, or you could just simply
Speaker 1: say you could you could walk away. Um. And at
Speaker 1: the same time, this is dependent upon Will McClay, who's
Speaker 1: done an outstanding job through the years of finding running backs.
Speaker 1: I mean, for a while they were they were the
Speaker 1: kings of finding Julius Jones and round to Marian barber
Speaker 1: Are in round four, Tony Pollard and round for Marco
Speaker 1: to Marco Murray in round three. So so they can
Speaker 1: do this, they're going to be in a position because, oh,
Speaker 1: by the way, that time you've been Danny teasing about
Speaker 1: that second contract for Diggs. We gave your problems, though,
Speaker 1: we gave your problems, right, right right. What happened yesterday
Speaker 1: is not being talked about enough. Jefferson had a grand
Speaker 1: total of five targets cuffs. Kirt was like, I mean,
Speaker 1: ain't going on cuffs, Kurt ain't going to cuffs. C
Speaker 1: J Hopkinson with nine nine at targets. That's another dude,
Speaker 1: that's stilling money. We go ahead, Um, I mean these
Speaker 1: facts though, that's don't get me started on that. No, man,
Speaker 1: I know, I don't get med me. I I have
Speaker 1: long since not understood how you can be so mediocre
Speaker 1: and a team willingly, willingly write you checks for being
Speaker 1: this mediocre when the last head coach was so mad
Speaker 1: at it. Zimmer hated the guy. Mike Zimmer hated talking
Speaker 1: about center Cousins Kirk Cousins, Kirk Cousins. That's what we're
Speaker 1: sending money now. It's a lot of people robbing the bank.
Speaker 1: You know, no mask, he got no masks. All he
Speaker 1: coing that broad daylight walking up. Yeah, that's the real
Speaker 1: dude debo, like I'm back, give it up, smooth repeat
Speaker 1: the Fender Kirk Cousins. But they just keep willingly do.
Speaker 1: But Zimmer hated him, and so you know what they did.
Speaker 1: They fired Zimmer And who did they hire. They hired
Speaker 1: a guy and Kevin O'Connell who worked with in Washington, like,
Speaker 1: oh you can you can get him going? Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: look but let me you can't get him going. And
Speaker 1: you know that's their proput. We talked about befolk Man
Speaker 1: and we might have a little bit of that out
Speaker 1: of Minnesota. But before this game, man, it was so
Speaker 1: big and bands so tough. That was a guy named
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook that came to the stadium yesterday. Also that
Speaker 1: everybody was expecting to have one hundred fifty two hundred
Speaker 1: yards and this cowboy defense that was really that was
Speaker 1: giving up Google gobs on the ground and every Google guys,
Speaker 1: you understand, boocool yards on the ground, that's how you
Speaker 1: beat him. That same day Quinn that we're talking about
Speaker 1: right now, that had him in the fun house, Oh man,
Speaker 1: Dan Quinn and putting the defense together that can't stop
Speaker 1: the run. What up to him yesterday? The attention to
Speaker 1: detail that you talk about all the time, the things
Speaker 1: that show up on tape, they went back in there
Speaker 1: and they changed that. To me, that's a shign of
Speaker 1: a team that's maturing. They're a young team, but when
Speaker 1: you can correct your mistakes like that, that's in season development.
Speaker 1: Because we saw the way that Chicago was gashing them,
Speaker 1: saw the way that Green Bay was gashing them. They
Speaker 1: didn't give up those types of runs yesterday and they
Speaker 1: became a much more physical team. I don't know what
Speaker 1: they did during the week, but if you look at it,
Speaker 1: how many times did it looked like Dalvin Cooke hit
Speaker 1: a wall and it just went backwards? I mean, Lvie
Speaker 1: played well, and I tell you what the young man,
Speaker 1: the moan Clark talk about it. The man he can
Speaker 1: be special now, he can be not only a sent
Speaker 1: small sample size. We understand that small sample, but the
Speaker 1: man's physical out there. The way he was shedding blocks away,
Speaker 1: he was getting downhill. That's a grown man, right there.
Speaker 1: I want to see what he can do further along
Speaker 1: in the season, but he can be special man. Talent
Speaker 1: acquisition that the Cowboys have gotten through their draft in
Speaker 1: free agency is I don't think it's talked about enough.
Speaker 1: It's really not about it enough. But you know, there's
Speaker 1: another player and you start thinking about too. Where we
Speaker 1: talked about you're gonna have more people. You have to
Speaker 1: pack now when you when you're paying a tony power,
Speaker 1: that means that you need you know, you need a
Speaker 1: clark Um that has to You need younger players who
Speaker 1: fill in. You need Tyler Smith by the way, we'll
Speaker 1: get to the you need. You need those guys, those
Speaker 1: young guys coming in a little contracts to perform at
Speaker 1: a high level. And Demon Clark is a what round
Speaker 1: pick um six forgot six I forgot it was. It
Speaker 1: was like, you know, but to your to your point, though,
Speaker 1: to your point, you're developing the bottom the bottom of
Speaker 1: your draft and guys that are coming out and develop
Speaker 1: a play like that that can contribute during the season.
Speaker 1: Like man, you don't have that across the board in
Speaker 1: the NFL right now. Have we seen the end of
Speaker 1: Jabril cox Man, No, I don't think so you don't
Speaker 1: think it's I don't. I don't. I don't think so.
Speaker 1: I I just know no. Is that is that wish
Speaker 1: we're thinking? Are you saying that you've seen something that
Speaker 1: you believe that the this young man has a chance
Speaker 1: to too because he's gonna this is gonna be LV
Speaker 1: spot if we're talking about him as a lie. I
Speaker 1: don't believe Lv's back. I don't. I go back to
Speaker 1: Tom Landry had believed in this and didn't remember Parcel's
Speaker 1: talking about it as well as like, you know, year
Speaker 1: three and you know last year wasn't really a year one,
Speaker 1: you know. So let's see the young man have three
Speaker 1: years on the football field and you're still under contract
Speaker 1: and then you know, make yourself a call. But I
Speaker 1: just wouldn't do it. Not yet. Um. I still think
Speaker 1: there's you still have an opportunity, you know, if you
Speaker 1: hats like, hey, we gotta get this guy his somebody
Speaker 1: else has got to take a spot, right, I don't
Speaker 1: think so, um bar LV. These are guys who are
Speaker 1: gonna be free agents after the season and work. Once again,
Speaker 1: we're talking about a lot of dudes are gonna be
Speaker 1: free agents. You're having to You're gonna have to find
Speaker 1: dollars someplace. So Cox is a guy you may by
Speaker 1: necessity saying, you know, we need to keep him and
Speaker 1: develop him because we need to have some young talent
Speaker 1: making low dollars here as we try to pay other people.
Speaker 1: I mean, you gotta have, you gotta, you gotta starting corner.
Speaker 1: You gotta take care of an Anthony Brown. You did,
Speaker 1: you did? You can bring him ab back? Yes? Okay, yes,
Speaker 1: yes I do, I do. He aint gonna want pennies though,
Speaker 1: um true, true, But I would you say so that's
Speaker 1: that you got. I'm not a part of this talk

Speaker 1: you by Toast d Toats. The offensive line yesterday in
Speaker 1: Minnesota was such a key part of what they did,
Speaker 1: and Minnesota's offensive line was so bad. I don't think
Speaker 1: we looked at enough to say how great and what
Speaker 1: the Cowboys did in a forty to three victory. Here,
Speaker 1: you got some guys here who are really starting to
Speaker 1: figure out what to do. Joe Philbin, the offensive line coach,
Speaker 1: give the man his props because there's been a lot
Speaker 1: of people who've given him, uh who gave him some
Speaker 1: grief his first year. And Jason Peters playing some tackled
Speaker 1: yesterday in the game. Case you noticed that where they
Speaker 1: kicked in the rookie Tyler Smith the left guard, makes
Speaker 1: you start to wonder. Don't start. Don't start this man,
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, already there they showed they played the
Speaker 1: hand yesterday. When I saw when I saw yesterday, be
Speaker 1: seeing you know what, I said, that tell me what
Speaker 1: you're thinking without opening your mouth and telling me what
Speaker 1: you're thinking. They bumped them down. I was like, Okay,
Speaker 1: that's what we gotta get you. We gotta get your
Speaker 1: reps in here, young man. Look man, that's loyalty. That's
Speaker 1: this loyalty you see. Is it all right now? I
Speaker 1: also say this is it. Let me get my five
Speaker 1: best players on the football field, my five best linemen.
Speaker 1: I don't see why they need to do that when
Speaker 1: this officer of lineman has been the way they have
Speaker 1: it set up right now, this unit has jailed and
Speaker 1: they're playing great football together. I don't understand why this
Speaker 1: whole thing about let's throw these our five best officive
Speaker 1: linemen out there. I don't get it. Keep it, keep
Speaker 1: it with the way it is. It's that continuity, and
Speaker 1: I know what you're exactly what you're talking. We've been
Speaker 1: begging for that for years. After so many years of
Speaker 1: not being able to do that. You get Tyren Smith back.
Speaker 1: It's just how you feel about him. He already has
Speaker 1: the tape out there. He's a guy that you know
Speaker 1: what he's gonna bring you when we talk with Nate
Speaker 1: when they say we got our screen tackle getting healthy
Speaker 1: right now, and I'm not and I'm not opposed to that,
Speaker 1: but I want to go back to what you were saying. Man,
Speaker 1: was a lot of people talking about fielding and getting
Speaker 1: fired and all these things, and all he's done is
Speaker 1: coach this offensive line. Yesterday they were out there malling
Speaker 1: people this this hey, Tyla Smith is a cement truck.
Speaker 1: The kid he that's That's all to our scouting department
Speaker 1: and the job that they do and the guys that
Speaker 1: they pick out. Man, this is a this is you
Speaker 1: couldn't have had a story start to form and be
Speaker 1: better than our offensive line because it looked like it
Speaker 1: was gloom and doom at the beginning of the season.
Speaker 1: But I gotta say this. I gotta say this. The
Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings on defense, what were you thinking? You true?
Speaker 1: What you mean to tell me? You're not going to
Speaker 1: bring another man down in the box? You just gonna
Speaker 1: let it ride with the two I come a wait
Speaker 1: a minute, I mean that's another arrogant. You are arrogant.
Speaker 1: And sometimes when I look at these coaches in the NFL,
Speaker 1: I'm like, man, how wait a minute, man, what are
Speaker 1: you doing? What are you doing? Obviously they running it
Speaker 1: down your throat. You need to bring another guy in
Speaker 1: the box. Walk Harrison Smith down, somebody. Anybody gonna stay
Speaker 1: too high, They're gonna runny out. Oh kill kill kid?
Speaker 1: Oh what are we doing? Got it? But that offensive
Speaker 1: line is doing that? Why changeing? Yeah? Why you got
Speaker 1: you have it? You have a great point when you
Speaker 1: talk about the offensive line. I mean Connor McGovern. We've
Speaker 1: been begging for Connor McGovern to start to play, to
Speaker 1: get to the second level. You see him and beyond
Speaker 1: it on the double team block. I'm talking about take
Speaker 1: that drive that guy. That's the kind of stuff you
Speaker 1: need to start to see, and especially going into these
Speaker 1: these No November and b simber Man's Championship football time.
Speaker 1: You want it, you got it, And they weren't scrumbs you.
Speaker 1: Darius Smith nine and a half sacks, Nail Hunter over there?
Speaker 1: Did you even hear Daniel Hunter's name yesterday? Did anybody
Speaker 1: say anything? Kendricks, a guy I talked about all the
Speaker 1: respect that I may come on. They left a linebacker man,
Speaker 1: the man on Tommy polt on a wheel right, Man,
Speaker 1: you are basking forward? That was wrong. That was but
Speaker 1: the ball from that though, Man, if I'm Minnesota, man,
Speaker 1: there's a couple of plays I were really mad. The coaches,
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins, why you want to let me get a
Speaker 1: killed out here? Got back problems from Zote from this
Speaker 1: comet man on the wheel right? Why are you putting
Speaker 1: me out here with this? All them on TV? My
Speaker 1: mama watches TV. Mean coaching, coaches, not put you Maddy,
Speaker 1: Maddy coaches, Boyd coach. Look at me on TV. You
Speaker 1: see me on here. Look what you gotta be looking like?
Speaker 1: Man off of the lines about look out Kurt. They
Speaker 1: covered kill kill kill kill. We're coming in him. I mean,
Speaker 1: my gosh, these coaches man, I mean Michael Park play one,
Speaker 1: you know, but here he comes like Lawd's Taylor curtain
Speaker 1: shook from there. He was shook from the ghost. It
Speaker 1: just were right out the gate. Christian Dry saw, Christian
Speaker 1: Darren saw, and they reported that he had a concussion
Speaker 1: the week before and left the game with concussion Uh symptoms. Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: that's like man come on many what coaches doing? Man?
Speaker 1: What do you do it? And you lining up? And
Speaker 1: and for me, the cherry on on top was when
Speaker 1: Michael went and then the A gap blitz. I was like, Oh,
Speaker 1: god's around. Oh it's a roup we could go home.
Speaker 1: Could be officially, you know, say he belongs on the
Speaker 1: D line like this back and forth linebacker D. Can
Speaker 1: we say, like, man, look this defense and he performs
Speaker 1: at best when he's hunting the quarterback. I'll just put
Speaker 1: it this way. U trust in DQ, he's gonna look
Speaker 1: at the match up and tell you what to do
Speaker 1: before this game. And I can't remember which podcast, maybe
Speaker 1: it was The Break, but they'd spoken about, hey, look,
Speaker 1: this offensive line is not gonna be a line that
Speaker 1: can hold up if you have to pass a lot um.
Speaker 1: You know, clearly the Cowboys had the advantage here, and
Speaker 1: and so I think I go back to DQ knows
Speaker 1: what to do. I just don't see the benefit of
Speaker 1: putting them on a second level. I'm on the same page.
Speaker 1: I'm on the same page with you. Dog. Leave him
Speaker 1: at the end, didn't let him hunt, quit playing with it,
Speaker 1: get put them on clock in the A gap blitz,
Speaker 1: let him come up and do that every It didn't matter.
Speaker 1: What I saw yesterday was they put the boy, they
Speaker 1: put the bazooka in the wide nine Jesus, do you
Speaker 1: know how much speed that is coming from that far
Speaker 1: away and what kind of lanes he's creating with the
Speaker 1: rest of the defensive line in a minute or one
Speaker 1: on one match up? Hello, talk to me, man, don't
Speaker 1: you Randy Gregory? No, I'll talk about dat out. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because you called it from the beginning. Yeah, you didn't
Speaker 1: say that the next Harvey Martin, I get you out one.
Speaker 1: You did call that out. You call that. You called that. Um.
Speaker 1: So when you see here's derikshow when you clearly know
Speaker 1: like okay, man, this guy can't handle him, then yeah,
Speaker 1: you can drop him down there. But most of all,
Speaker 1: I just believe in what d If dan Quinn says,
Speaker 1: you know what, we're gonna put him here. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: let dan Quinn do what any wants to do. And
Speaker 1: then when when dan Quinn leaves, Joe she gets the job.
Speaker 1: By the way, Joe way, there's your guy. There's your guy,
Speaker 1: because he's been running the defense, knows what to do.
Speaker 1: Joe's that guy. And also you talked about how they
Speaker 1: are back there scheming up defensively, these dbs, that's them.
Speaker 1: So so that's your guy. Um, I'm just gonna trust
Speaker 1: him because he's earned it. What's trust required? Tom consistent
Speaker 1: pro and in two years Dan Quinn Michael Parsons wherever
Speaker 1: he feels Mike and needs to be I think he's
Speaker 1: been correct now he's I mean, come on, when you
Speaker 1: have a guy like that, it don't You don't need
Speaker 1: many marbles in your head to say, look, wherever I
Speaker 1: put eleven, somebody's in trouble and if you are inside
Speaker 1: of it, if you are Durance Armstrong and you have
Speaker 1: a one on one matchup, you should be able to
Speaker 1: win that. Sam Williams, everybody number come bro, the problem
Speaker 1: that's happened. This is the thing. The good thing about
Speaker 1: having Michael. It forces everybody to win a one on
Speaker 1: one matchup. Hell, the Vikers didn't even go twelve yesterday.
Speaker 1: I would have win thirteen yesterday. I dropped that back
Speaker 1: talking about Cousins, Man, I mean that dude, he go
Speaker 1: take that icy hot commercial from Shack. I mean that
Speaker 1: dude was just beat up seven backs in the game. Man,
Speaker 1: he got he got Hey, what I said on the text,
Speaker 1: somebody that love and better hand him a baseball hat
Speaker 1: because that was bad. You better hand if you love,
Speaker 1: if you love Kirk Cousin handing him with baseball handing down.
Speaker 1: So so Church, I haven't played. What is it? What
Speaker 1: is the feeling like in the huddle when everybody getting
Speaker 1: a taste like that? You tell these call him up
Speaker 1: for me. I need something? Is it? You know if
Speaker 1: you're getting a part of that taste, it's magical because everybody,
Speaker 1: Oh man, you got that, you got that man. Everybody's
Speaker 1: balling out of control. You just don't want to be
Speaker 1: that guy that hasn't made a play yet. You just like, man,
Speaker 1: let me get let me switch with you on this play,
Speaker 1: Let me switch with you on that play. But the
Speaker 1: emotions are running high. Everybody's high five and each other.
Speaker 1: Everybody's getting a piece of this action. And then you're
Speaker 1: you're if you haven't made a play yet, you're trying
Speaker 1: to switch up. Let me get that blitz, let me
Speaker 1: get you got people switching positions out there. It's fun
Speaker 1: and that's when the game becomes fun. You saw a
Speaker 1: curse out there after his sack hit it with the skull, Yeah, skull.
Speaker 1: I mean people are having a good time. I'm telling you.
Speaker 1: That's when it's like, man, hees go, I need my,
Speaker 1: I need my. You know you got one. I need
Speaker 1: to get something. I need to get one to get
Speaker 1: that food right, and try to try to get my
Speaker 1: pro Bowl numbers up. Yeah. Man, that's make the PROBOV
Speaker 1: trying to get you see follow follow us out there
Speaker 1: or whatever. Let me get it these numbers too. Man,
Speaker 1: you don't want to miss that. And you see somebody
Speaker 1: about to get a sack, just jump on the n
Speaker 1: Maybe they didn't get you to assists. Can't be bad
Speaker 1: about that, dude, get a half of that. Man, you
Speaker 1: took my full sack away. I'm telling you, hey, you
Speaker 1: look may don't matter whatever you play off. Man, when
Speaker 1: you when you get when your defense is balling like that,
Speaker 1: it is fun. But everybody that's involved as yesterday this defense,
Speaker 1: I don't They talked about the plane ride from Green Bay.
Speaker 1: That plane ride from Minnesota had to been fun. I
Speaker 1: was living. They earned it, you know, they earned it,
Speaker 1: both of them. You earned that bad trip home because
Speaker 1: you didn't do your job. You earned this trip here
Speaker 1: because you fixed everything you said you would do, and

Speaker 1: Here country rock berry Church. I'm new he scruts. This
Speaker 1: is the Players Lab. So cowboys get a forty two
Speaker 1: three dominant win in Minnesota. That's yesterday, Today's Monday. It's
Speaker 1: not in your normal Monday because the Cowboys are playing
Speaker 1: on Thanksgiving Day, Barry, You've played in this Thanksgiving Day
Speaker 1: a lot of times here. Um. I thought maybe the
Speaker 1: league would do the Cowboys a silent and have them
Speaker 1: play at home as they get ready for Thanksgiving. Um,
Speaker 1: but that's not the case. They are coming off the
Speaker 1: road the Lions. We're in the Metal ends to play
Speaker 1: New York and there. So it's just very interesting to
Speaker 1: see how how they did that. But you tell me,
Speaker 1: what is it like on a Monday, how do you
Speaker 1: get your body ready to bounce back for this game,
Speaker 1: a divisional game against the team it's got the same
Speaker 1: record that you already beat. It sucks. I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: lie to your Thursday games suck because you know you're
Speaker 1: in at this point in the in the year. It
Speaker 1: ain't like its week one, Week two, Week three, You're
Speaker 1: all the way and week what are we at? Twelve? Now?
Speaker 1: Eleven twelve? So your body's already beat up from the
Speaker 1: games you have already played out there. You're coming from
Speaker 1: an away game, a high intensity game that you had
Speaker 1: gotten ready for. Emotions were going crazy, so you probably
Speaker 1: landed late last night. You gotta turn around, get up.
Speaker 1: They're gonna do a quick film session, nothing too drastic
Speaker 1: like you used to, you know, going in there breaking
Speaker 1: everything down. They might just pick a few plays here
Speaker 1: and near to watch before you got to get ready
Speaker 1: for New York. But body wise, it sucks because you
Speaker 1: don't really start getting healthy. You don't really start feeling
Speaker 1: like yourself until Thursday. Like on a regular season, you
Speaker 1: don't feel ready until Thursday. So you got to actually
Speaker 1: play Thursday. So this week it's gonna be a lot
Speaker 1: of just you know, walk throughs, a lot of non
Speaker 1: padded practices out there to try to conserve the body
Speaker 1: as much as possible. But it sucks. And those Thursday games,
Speaker 1: you're you're living off of pure adrenaline, like that's the
Speaker 1: only thing you can go off of. It's just heart
Speaker 1: and adrenaline because your body is gonna be suffering, especially
Speaker 1: those offensive linemen out there banging all the time, so
Speaker 1: your body's gonna go through it. But it's all about
Speaker 1: heart and all about adrenalan when you go out there
Speaker 1: on them Thursdays. And to be honest, man, it sucks.
Speaker 1: And be what's the difference now when you look at
Speaker 1: the way, like when you play, you guys would have
Speaker 1: that Thanksgiving game and then you double down on another
Speaker 1: Thursday game, right, you back though the same thing, so
Speaker 1: you really didn't get a break in between the process
Speaker 1: of getting your body ready. Now the Cowboys don't play
Speaker 1: again until Sunday, So yeah, is that even in your mind, like, Okay,
Speaker 1: we can get through this this get through this game Thursday,
Speaker 1: then I give myself an opportunity to break. And that's
Speaker 1: the mindset you got it. Once you get through this game,
Speaker 1: like it's gonna suck. Leading up to the game and
Speaker 1: playing in the game, it'll be all adrenaline. Your art's
Speaker 1: gonna be pumping, so you ain't really gonna feel much.
Speaker 1: But after the game, you're gonna be hurting. But you
Speaker 1: just gotta know. All right, now we've got a long break.
Speaker 1: I think you get like ten days until your next game,
Speaker 1: so you get to rest your body, relax, kind of recharge.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't do nothing crazy after the game. I just
Speaker 1: recharge and relax, especially your older players out there. But
Speaker 1: for the most part that Sunday to Thursday, it's gonna suck.
Speaker 1: But now having that long break, once you get through there,
Speaker 1: the mindset is all right, let me recharge. Now, let
Speaker 1: me woosh and get back to where I was and
Speaker 1: start this thing off again. But I'm Sunday to Thursday. Man,
Speaker 1: So how did the veterans run a week like this?
Speaker 1: In terms of talking to young guys about what to
Speaker 1: do that, hey tonight, you don't need to go out
Speaker 1: to the club, you will go. How do you all
Speaker 1: police that in the room to make sure everybody's ready
Speaker 1: to go? Well, it was me what my mindset was.
Speaker 1: Kind of lead by example. I let these guys know, like,
Speaker 1: you don't need to be out in the streets like that,
Speaker 1: because all you're doing is dehydrating your body. Your body's
Speaker 1: already probably dehydrated from the game, so you don't need
Speaker 1: to be out there doing all of all that other stuff.
Speaker 1: Drink a lot of fluids. Stretch a lot. That was
Speaker 1: big for me because after the games, man, if you
Speaker 1: don't stretch much, I used to cramp up a lot,
Speaker 1: and you would go in the games all cramped up
Speaker 1: and you muscle spasm and you don't want any parts
Speaker 1: of that. So stretch a lot, keep the fluid's going.
Speaker 1: Kind of lead by example, let these guys understand, like
Speaker 1: this is how we're gonna go through. Walkthrough just because
Speaker 1: they say it's a walk through and you don't have
Speaker 1: pads on, doesn't mean it's a joke around session. You
Speaker 1: gotta keep serious, You gotta get focused because that's where
Speaker 1: you're gonna see your looks at. It ain't like you're
Speaker 1: gonna get fast paced, you know, looks like you should
Speaker 1: in the regular season with pads on and all that stuff.
Speaker 1: You're gonna be walking through these looks. So it's gonna
Speaker 1: be more about your mindsetting and looking at the plays
Speaker 1: and breaking them down that way instead of physically going
Speaker 1: out there and doing them. But you gotta leave Bay example,
Speaker 1: and this team is loaded with superb leadership out there. Hey,
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm taking it from from BC to do
Speaker 1: this this Thursday to Thursday stretch. Hell gotta be hell longest,
Speaker 1: you know, exactly to do it like that. For me,
Speaker 1: all I'm thinking about is this the fact that you
Speaker 1: cannot lit up. You know, you can't lit up. We
Speaker 1: came and I'm and this is an assumption on my
Speaker 1: part that we went into the Green Bay game a
Speaker 1: little a little too confident, all right, and we got
Speaker 1: in there and we lit our guards down, versual teams
Speaker 1: that we should have beat. All Right, You're disappointed by
Speaker 1: that what happened. You're damn they're embarrassed by it because
Speaker 1: of how many teams had a double you know, two
Speaker 1: point score, fourteen points to never lose in Cowboy history,
Speaker 1: and you gave that up one ninety five and one
Speaker 1: because of you. And then you come back the next
Speaker 1: week and you just put your foot on the Vikings neck.
Speaker 1: You cannot lit up going into to New York because
Speaker 1: this is a divisional opponent. This is the same this
Speaker 1: is the same thing that we know about the Philadelphia Eagles,
Speaker 1: about anybody else, the Commanders, You throw the records out
Speaker 1: the window. This is Thanksgiving. This is Cowboys football. That's
Speaker 1: the Giants coming into town. And they would love nothing
Speaker 1: other than and to embarrass you on Thanksgiving. Because then
Speaker 1: the same narrative that just changed from Dak being the
Speaker 1: weak link and all of that, all those haters they come,
Speaker 1: they grow, they grow courage again, and they come right
Speaker 1: back out and they tell you about what you don't
Speaker 1: have and who made this move and who did that,
Speaker 1: and who you don't have. Look I like my guys,
Speaker 1: and that's what I'm saying. Thursday, we get the boot
Speaker 1: up with him again and c SA Quan Look, uh,
Speaker 1: Cooper Rush he won the last time he was in
Speaker 1: New York, So I would one was would assume that
Speaker 1: Dak should go in here and they man, this should
Speaker 1: be the ice capage Giants quarterback of Dorry Jackson's going
Speaker 1: to miss four to six weeks with the mcl spring. Okay,
Speaker 1: so he's gonna be gone. Um, their wide receiver one
Speaker 1: Delle Robinson has a touring ACL so he's out the
Speaker 1: rest of the year. And number seventeen, Yes, it is
Speaker 1: that he was. He was explosive, so yes, said Nodell,
Speaker 1: backing junior. It will not be available for the Giants
Speaker 1: if you decided to sign there. Sweet Jerry said, they're
Speaker 1: gonna have a conversation there. So the Giants coming in
Speaker 1: here and on a quick turnaround that you know you're
Speaker 1: losing some players here. I don't know if the word
Speaker 1: must is usable here, but this is a game you
Speaker 1: need to have. You're at home, Okay, there's no excuse
Speaker 1: for you're not winning this Thanksgiving Day game at home.
Speaker 1: You have the advantage you've played well against Minnesota. Back
Speaker 1: this up and then put to rest this team in
Speaker 1: your division by getting yourself to sweep over these guys
Speaker 1: do your part there now, this is this is a
Speaker 1: huge game. Like you said, it's the division game right now.
Speaker 1: Those guys are battling for second place, and a victory
Speaker 1: here against the Giants, like you said, it would put
Speaker 1: them away. But it also keeps you within striking distance
Speaker 1: of the Philadelphia Eagles because they're they're what nine and
Speaker 1: one right now, So if you get a dub right, yeah,
Speaker 1: you'll be eight and three. If you get a dub here,
Speaker 1: it keeps you within the striking distance because you know
Speaker 1: you got to play them later on in the season.
Speaker 1: So this is a huge game, huge game for the Cowboys.
Speaker 1: New York is hurting right now, quick quick turnaround, so
Speaker 1: hopefully they should be able to take advantage of this
Speaker 1: Giant's team. No, and everything you just said, I agree
Speaker 1: with that wholeheartedly. I just want the same energy that
Speaker 1: we went into to Minnesota with. That's the part that
Speaker 1: I think that confuses the haters is when they see
Speaker 1: you go to Minnesota and play like you you played,
Speaker 1: which was damn near perfect aside from aside from the penalties,
Speaker 1: those are things that you can clean up. But this
Speaker 1: passing game worked too. Efficiency and going back to Tony Poller,
Speaker 1: It's something that an argument that I've been making because
Speaker 1: so many people have made these overarching had this overarching
Speaker 1: opinion about Deebo Samuels. I said it that he is
Speaker 1: the closest camp to that because he is to me
Speaker 1: better as a receiver than he is as a running back.
Speaker 1: And you saw that yesterday, and we have to continue
Speaker 1: to have that in the fold of our game planning,
Speaker 1: also with our tight ends and the rest of this stuff.
Speaker 1: What you saw from Michael Michael Gallup who came on strong.
Speaker 1: I've said it. He hadn't looked like himself, but yesterday
Speaker 1: he caught some balls across the middle, took some contact
Speaker 1: and did some things that we've needed to see our
Speaker 1: our receivers. Dude, and Tony Tony Tober, I mean not
Speaker 1: Tony Tober, Jalen Tober got in the game. My favorite dude.
Speaker 1: I was on side. Come on, man, he looked Tober
Speaker 1: that had a whole uniform on yesterday ball had that's
Speaker 1: out in time. So give me your your your comp
Speaker 1: for Tony Pollard. I just did Deebo Samuel debo same.
Speaker 1: So that's and he and he does, and I believe
Speaker 1: he has a little bit something different than Debo has,
Speaker 1: because Debo, for his size, runs way too big and
Speaker 1: if he wants to stay in the league, he needs
Speaker 1: to tame it. Get on that back a little bit,
Speaker 1: give you one and and it's and it's going back
Speaker 1: a little bit. Um. I think of Eric Metcalf and
Speaker 1: how dominant Eric and and this was in an old
Speaker 1: NFL work. I don't think they gave him enough touches.
Speaker 1: He had special teams, he was a return or two.
Speaker 1: That's what that made. That's what made I know what
Speaker 1: you're talking about. But I like that. But I just
Speaker 1: think of now, you know, in that old school NFL
Speaker 1: they live today's NFL, you would put Eric Metcalf and
Speaker 1: a whole lot of sting. You throw him in the backfield,
Speaker 1: you throw I mean the weapons now that you because
Speaker 1: you know he was he was he was a smaller guy.
Speaker 1: But now you're not afraid. You know, we saw darren
Speaker 1: sproles like heyman and Sean Payton like we gonna roll
Speaker 1: them on out here in the charge. Um. I just
Speaker 1: think of those kind of weapons like that, and Tony
Speaker 1: plays special teams for a while here, and they got smart,
Speaker 1: decided to know let's get him off there. But but
Speaker 1: I just think of him as just such a fantastic weapon. Um.
Speaker 1: I remember Parcels had a guy Dave Megant, and you
Speaker 1: know megot was so dough. You know, Dave Megott Patriots, right,
Speaker 1: Patriots and Giants and Patriots. Actually when he when he
Speaker 1: left the Giants, who was a bidding war between uh
Speaker 1: Belichick and when Cleveland and then Parcels with the Patriots
Speaker 1: and obviously you know Parcels one now, but you know
Speaker 1: Belichick had he had Eric mcaffy. Because you imagine special teams.
Speaker 1: You can try to figety where you're gonna kick in
Speaker 1: the metcalf Omegan. I mean, um, but but these kind
Speaker 1: of guys that are they are really good and where
Speaker 1: whether they bring Ezekiel Elliott back or not, they're going
Speaker 1: to need to add another running back. The Davis kid
Speaker 1: is a nice player. I like what I've seen from him,
Speaker 1: and I thought maybe should have gotten the game a
Speaker 1: little bit earlier essay when things got out of control.
Speaker 1: But um, that's something that we know Will McClay can
Speaker 1: go handle. What do you think about the run differential
Speaker 1: between the fifteen and fifteen It almost seemed poetic like
Speaker 1: perfect for both of those guys to get the same
Speaker 1: amount of Kellen Moore called a sensational game. Yep, that's
Speaker 1: that that. I mean, if you want to say a blueprint, now,
Speaker 1: this is the blueprint that you would love to see
Speaker 1: from the Cowboys. The rest of the way. You'd love
Speaker 1: to see this Thursday. If they could do this on Thursday,
Speaker 1: I think that everybody would be very happy. Let your
Speaker 1: let your offensive line, you know, push the pile, utilize
Speaker 1: both of these backs, throw it when you need to.
Speaker 1: Hope you can sack Danny times sometimes, but stop the run.
Speaker 1: I mean, there's so there's so much that you would
Speaker 1: just eight guys, how do we bottle this thing back
Speaker 1: up here and go do this one more time? Because
Speaker 1: that's the essence in terms of really in anything. Can
Speaker 1: you do it again? No, you can do it one time,
Speaker 1: So you can do it one time, but the great
Speaker 1: ones do it again and that's what. Yeah, can you
Speaker 1: do it one more time? And that's how you stack
Speaker 1: up these victories and and that's that's what separates. As
Speaker 1: much as I hated the Pittsburgh Steelers growing up because
Speaker 1: I cheered for the Cowboys, there was just something about
Speaker 1: when the stages mattered the most. The Pittsburgh Steelers play
Speaker 1: to that level. There's a great line that John Facinda
Speaker 1: had an NFL film. She says, great teams don't always
Speaker 1: play great. They played great when they have to. And
Speaker 1: that was the essence of the nineteen seventies Pittsburgh Steelers.
Speaker 1: They just played great when they have I had to,
Speaker 1: and there was when you had to turn it on.
Speaker 1: One reason why I go back to when I said
Speaker 1: I picked the Viking. I mean, I picked the Cowboys
Speaker 1: to be the Vikings. Just I just thought that was
Speaker 1: gonna be a pride you. I know, I was running
Speaker 1: all these circles and you're like, man, you're gonna pick
Speaker 1: that after all that you did. Yeah, I just thought
Speaker 1: there was enough pride in the room that says, you
Speaker 1: know what, man, um, we can't lose a fourteen point
Speaker 1: lead and just come out here and and and I
Speaker 1: do it. So I thought I picked him to win. Now,
Speaker 1: after the show, I'm gonna go get Calvin Watkins and
Speaker 1: David Well David Gelkin in the morning News from greet
Speaker 1: because they picked minisode I hate to see it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: David Moore. David Moore picked David Moore picked the Cowboys.
Speaker 1: I'm like, guys, this is this is this is a
Speaker 1: this is one of those games. And if you know,
Speaker 1: and I didn't play like you guys and play like
Speaker 1: you college ball pro, but I've just talked to enough
Speaker 1: people there is a sense of pride when guys were
Speaker 1: just truly embarrassed, like you know what, man, Okay, that
Speaker 1: can't happen. And that was one of those games. You know,
Speaker 1: not only you blew a fourteen point lead, your coach
Speaker 1: go back home. You embarrassed him. And ten of the
Speaker 1: staff was, I mean you just I mean you left
Speaker 1: folks down. Man, took it right, You let folks down.
Speaker 1: This is not who we are. And they addressed it.
Speaker 1: They went' that's how and that's how if you're getting bassed,
Speaker 1: that's how you bounce back. That's how you wreck the
Speaker 1: VOYR mistake. That's why when I was saying to you
Speaker 1: in the open man and look, we we saw what
Speaker 1: they did last week, all of those uh those those
Speaker 1: uh runs that we were talking about, those zone runs
Speaker 1: and the outside guys making business decision. We saw them
Speaker 1: guys coming up with reckless abandoned in this game. And
Speaker 1: we said there was stopping the run as an attitude.
Speaker 1: It's a won't tool. It's got to be in you're
Speaker 1: not on you. And there was a lot of people
Speaker 1: had it in them so and they had that conversation
Speaker 1: amongst themselves a locker. That's sometime I'm gonna go try
Speaker 1: and track down to day the lock cool me, I say,
Speaker 1: are you tracking down? Are you tracking down to see
Speaker 1: who's in there? You know it's a Monday. I don't
Speaker 1: know who will be in there because it's a different
Speaker 1: you know, it's a different days. Some guys may need
Speaker 1: treat me about man may not come in there. So
Speaker 1: we're only gonna get them two days. So we'll get
Speaker 1: them today or tomorrow. So we'll see. But I definitely
Speaker 1: want to ask some guys about how much was this

Speaker 1: told you the great thing about that movie was that
Speaker 1: that scene is filmed at Texas Stadium, and probably it
Speaker 1: was in the visitor's locker room, and they kept it
Speaker 1: that way too. They kept it that that when you
Speaker 1: went into the Oliver Stone filmed that scene that that movie,
Speaker 1: but mom right there at Texas Stadium. And then they
Speaker 1: left the paint scheme up there and they never changed
