Yeah but the Cowboys weren't the only team changing offensive line coaches and technique.....I expect bumps and bruises but that wasn't lack of technique that looked like guys being overmatched.
Some of it was assignment-based, and that will happen when you effectively have 3 new starters, regardless of offseason.

Who were the two below us?

If Philly got a better grade than us, then PFF is smoking crack.

I’m not sure, I imagine it would be Philly (8 sacks) and Nee York giants (6 rushing yards)

He had two rushes that caused incompletions and a batted ball lol

Sweet. Deal is justified in my book ;)

Sorry was just being an *** with my last post. Just frustrating other teams big money guys make plays. Ours is inconsistent

Looney may have gotten one of the better grades but I am not sure the grade factors in calling the blocking schemes and such. This is where we will see a drop off with Looney from Travis Frederick.

I am surprised with Zack Martin's performance. But I am not surprised with the overall OL play. Many people on this board singled it out as a weakness this season.

To me we learned more about our LBs. We hoped they would play better but it appears they are who they were last season and that is a bog problem for the defense.

Anyone have a link that shows the top 10 worst OL performances? If Dallas was 3rd worst then Philly would have to be 1st or 2nd.

How many times have you seen this team regardless of who was coaching it do something like that? Take advantage of the opposing teams weakness?
seriously. hardly ever. It seemed we kept targeting Ramsey on purpose. The guy came to play. Dak was unafraid of throwing at him, but we need to use our matchups better. Either way, on offense the O-Line really didn't allow us to do what we wanted the first time around, but we were still in it. I don't know if that speaks to our talent, coaching, or both. But the game was within reach.

I imagine that will be one of the best D lines we face all season, along with Ramsey. It should be mostly smooth sailing from here with the occasional ripple.
The Washington football team says hi. Chase Young is a monster. He almost killed Wince......

I saw this. Pressure rate though, not necessarily worst OL performances. All teams lost.

I'd actually like to know that as well.....it has to be Philly AT LEAST one of those teams. But I don't know do they penalize them for the sacks Wentz got when he held on to the ball too long? Even then...it has to be them. Trying to find them now seems like Cowboys are the only rankings they posted on Twitter that I can find.

Put in Dalton though....


i dont agree on Williams. He plays very good early, but had a couple lapses late. He dominated Donald the first half. But as Moore as expected went away from the run, The OL started to struggle as the Rams saw Moore was going alot more to the pass so they didnt have to acount for the run much. Steele did better then what anybody would've expected from him.

True about Donald last season but we won’t face another Donald. The Football Team may be problematic but I can’t think of too many more teams that will be that good on the front and have the best corner in the league.
Ramsey wasn't even the issue. Best plays he made was Cooper dropping the football and Gallup pushing him.

I'll have to go back and look. I saw a few times Donald made him work but I didn't see anyone get the best of him last night.

There's 3 different guys playing on that offensive line from last year's game. Agree, they show up like that, we are in for a long year. At least we were still in the game. Unlie the Chaz Green debacle. It was still a winnable game, despite our O-Line woes.
That's the only saving grace....it wasn't the Falcons debacle.
