Twitter: La'el Collins on IR

It’s 3 games isn’t it?

Minimum, doesn't mean he won't be gone longer

 

[glimmerman]

I hope we have a solid O- Line to start.

 

[panchucko]

With this potent offense no missing tackle is going to hurt anything. Nobody can plan against our recovers and te and rb

Well, that wasn't a thread topic I wanted to see when the page loaded.

I think it will be at least top 10. If skill position players can’t succeed with that then we should be looking somewhere else and have vastly over rated players.

It’s pathetic, people already making excuses because of one player being out. I hope the players aren’t as weak minded as some of these fans.

May have to use the running back or tight end to chip the defensive end and help out whoever's at right tackle. Even the greatest offense can't get the ball to its receivers and tight ends if there is immediate pressure.

Not cool man. One of the toughest to ever wear the star

Wasn't towards Tony. It was towards the poster who is constantly bashing Dak but in the past.

Yeah, that makes a ton of sense. If you want to like someone or support him, ignore the facts. I’d hate to think who else you apply this irrational thought process to.

Are you naive enough to think I wrote the articles myself? Do you think I impersonate zeke on gameday and create my own not so impressive stats? You don’t even know what the articles say because you admitted to having never read them yet you can cast a judgement?

Your ignorance is astonishing but that became undeniable when you said zeke was the best RB to EVER play in the NFL. Anyways, I’ll keep posting my articles and try to inform the uneducated zeke fan boys and you can keep complaining about the articles you never read.

The fact you are enamored by your articles of choice are reason enough for me not to want to read them. I'm content to watch zeke play in the games without dissecting his life. I like what i see of him on the field. I like his personality. I don't give a rat's patooty that you don't.

Well yes if you’re a pessimist.

 

[InTheZone]

We do not have a QB who can adjust to a non-perfect scenario.
Rams win.....

as long as Bad Goff remains bad we should be fine. If the other QB shows up then it's a done deal and this applies to any game

Collins was reportedly out of shape after the loss of the offseason and started training camp doing rehab work and not team drills. Those reports are now being refuted by his agent who says Collins had been dealing with a hip injury.

Later in camp, he was involved in a car accident that reportedly wasn’t to have lingering effects. He first returned to practice on August 27. He missed practice as recently as Thursday and this is the confirmation he is not healthy enough to start the year.

Perhaps the Cowboys surprisingly carrying four tight ends on the initial roster (Blake Jarwin, Blake Bell, Dalton Schultz and rookie Sean McKeon) is because the team may end up forced to help out the right tackle on occasion for the first few weeks in trying to protect Dak Prescott.

As high-flying as the Cowboys offense should be, perhaps the 11 and 20 personnel packages have to wait a few weeks before they can be regularly implemented if Dallas needs to run more 12 to keep a second tight end in to block.

Interesting post. Certainly thought provoking.

 

[Buzzbait]

This is starting to reek of 8-8. You had to be wondering how Looney was gonna hold up and now you have Collins out. You can count on Tyron missing a couple of starts. Something is going on with Amari already that is hush hush. Stephen was spotted at Walmart having the basket return guys doing DB drills in hopes of landing a safety. Yeah this isn’t sounding too promising.

Nah, we fired 8-8, he went to the Giants.

Got paid syndrome???

I'm betting our D-line finds a way to make Goff's day one that won't allow him to get very comfortable in the pocket.

I have confidence in feeling that we have a pass rush to exert the kind of pressure to cause trouble for any NFL QB.

 

[Cebrin]

Oline lookin shaky. People will still credit the oline for anything Zeke does though even though the line hasnt been all world for awhile.

I'm happy to see someone someone else with a brain on here. I'm so tired of hearing that excuse.

 

[Cebrin]

Nah just every analyst and every statistical ranking has had them top 5 in run blocking all but once (10th) since his rookie year but the zeke fan boys here don’t want to acknowledge that.

Instead they prefer to ignore the several stats that doesn’t even have zeke in the top 10 and blame it all on the O line. Mind you, these are numbers that he put up, they are indisputable, he said himself “women lie, men lie, stats don’t lie”...which is hilarious since he demands respect and tells people to check his stats which is the entire reason they call him out. People know his stats better the dummy knows his own.

Stats don't lie, but they do leave out details. Scheme is a problem. How many of us knew they'd run on first down? How many of us knew if it was play action where to look next? How many of us knew where the runs were going? Great protection only does so much. You can hold your hands in front of your face to block a punch. If I know when you're going to do it, it won't help you much.

 

[Cebrin]

No bueno mi amigos.
Hey! Maybe Allthacorn, or whatever his name is can bust loose now!

Waived

 

[Bullflop]

I think we'll discover that we now have the level of offensive staff to overcome having one man out in our OL.

Those days left for New York with JG and his offensive mind. McCarthy and company will make adjustments.
