We really need him to bounce back next year.

He's really only had 1 impressive season and it was 2019. Then he just messes up his hip doing who knows what during the offseason.

This OL is fading quick and it would be nice if he could come back and be 100%.

Everyone wants to talk about Dak/Romo & Murray/Zeke but the real reason we were so good in 14 & 16 was because our offensive line could dictate games by imposing their will.

While i agree with the whole Collin's thing. No news is good news I hope.

You need to stop taking credit away from players on this team.

Football is a team sport. If the OL played amazing and Romo/Dak are missing passes all over the place it doesnt matter. If the OL is playing well and Murray isnt hitting the right hole or as was very usual with him was running for contact instead of away it doesnt matter.

Football is about everyone doing their job. So stop trying to diminish the QB's of this team by saying well. It was this it was that. The TEAM played well.

I actually have an honest question for you.

Have you ever played an organized sport at a high level before?

Have not heard anything about any of the injured players.
Usually we get the typical, they are coming along in their rehab.

Then again, I guess, why would they say anything at this point. May not hear much at all over the next few weeks, the way this team usually runs thongs this time of the year.
Other than Jerry spewing crap on the Fan that make us cringe at times. :laugh:

The last i heard of Tyron was a post on instagram that his dog had passed away.

He’ll be back, and like the rest of the linemen, he will have to be shut down by Week 10 at the latest due to some injury like a stinger, calf, back, or hip injury as always.

I don't think it is taking credit away from them when those guys will tell you 1st hand they can't do their jobs and can't use their talents if they do not have those big guys up front. Everything on offense begins with winning up front. I take nothing away from the job that Aikman, Irvin and Emmitt did when they were here but it still all started up front.

IMO we won't hear much until closer to the start of the 2021 season. Unless of course he retires randomly till then.

Players will be checking out of the locker rooms soon and be on their own till next year. Sure Jerry and Stephen may receive updates on any possibly PT.

Exactly. This would be my response to the Zeke hate. Let's get the o-line back to health and then evaluate him. Hard to run when you have 3rd stringers blocking for you.

I'm not expecting any leaking reports or news, per Collins.
I wouldn't be surprised if HIPPA procedures and policies involved and enforcing silence
.
No one really knows if his health and surgery was related to the car accident or something else.
as it's been very hush hush silence about this.
And he's not likely to be involved in any offseason strengthening program.
So much seems like it's gonna be a wait and see …..

Stephen Jones offered an optimistic response about feeling good about Collins and Tyron, but what else would we expect
Stephen to say.. ?

He'll be 100% in my opinion along with Tyron. Collins only time missed previously was with a torn ligament in his toe which is a pretty big thing for an O-lineman. It was speculated by this board that he came to camp out of shape but I never heard that anywhere else. To my knowledge he had a hip injury, had surgery, and is doing well. There's zero reason not to believe in a dominant Collins returning in 2021.

The same should be noted about Tyron Smith. His neck has bothered him for years and was surgically corrected this season. I personally think the two bookends will back in 2021.

When the oline is getting pushed back it doesn’t matter what you do. The game is won in the trenches first.

No reason not to think that all our players will all come back and they will all be healthy and they will all play 16 games and they will all have career years. The scary thing is that that is pretty much what it will take for us to be any good. The odds of it actually happening you ask?????
