2012 - we picked up multiple guards in free agency plus a ton of offensive free agents not drafted.

Since 2006, we've drafted 9 offensive linemen, not including the undrafted free agents, and free agent pickups.

I don't feel like doing too much research, but the cowboys have gone through at least 20+ offensive linemen since 2006. Jones is trying, not very good at it, but he's trying.

AT some point, Romo has to forget about that and do his thing. Same goes for Garrett, receivers, etc.
He's supposed to "forget" that every time he takes a snap there is someone in the backfield to elude? Or "forget" that he has an incompetent running game that leaves all of the burden of moving the offense on his shoulders?

Sometimes he does "forget" that he has receivers that don't know how to run their routes, and then Peanut Tillman waltzes into the endzone on a Pick 6 because someone blew a route adjustment.

Someday soon, Romo is going to "forget" he played for the Dallas Cowboys, and we're all going to be very sad.

Or maybe put in at least half the work they do to get to the level they're at before you start pretending you could do a better job than them. Just a thought.

Tony is running for his life allot, but still make dumb choices at times , with protection. This oline is the worst weve had in a long time. If we could get our oline to average we could make a little noise in dec/jan. Atleast start parnell over free. What could it hurt. Parnell can get beat like rug as good as free , and can atleast handle bullrushers.

So I need to have multiple years of experience coaching at the professional level so that I'm allowed to post my opinions on a message board?

For your opinion to mean anything at all, sure.

That's not limited to message boards, either.

Geez, I guess nobody's opinion really means anything around here.
