Who is the short yardage back?

[Mannix]

I'm almost as worried about this fine detail, as I am about PK. Do you think for one second that Jimmy would have entered a promising season like this one with two (2) obvious loose ends? I still believe that the kicking situation is going to cost us the division and/or critical playoff seeding.

The team is currently trying to figure that out. It may end up being a committee between Davis and Dowdle. We still have Ronald Jones. They may have to go with Pollard. I don’t see them using Vaughn in critical short yardage situations but who knows. It’s a dilemma, because outside of Pollard no one is proven.

We won't need one!

GO COWBOYS!!

Micah Parsons. Tell me it wouldn’t work (not saying we should)

They all can make a yard.

Short answer: Whoever has the ball in short yardage situations and can pick up the yards. The days of having a bruising Larry Czonka or Mike Allstott type back are in the past.

Just my opinion. But the days of a “short yardage” back are fading. Most NFL RBs these days have to be multi-dimensional.

So no Refrigerator Perry action?????

I was listening to the Break today and Eatman seems to think Deuce could do it. He said something to the effect of, "Near the goal line, It's going to take the 2nd level of the defense 2-3 seconds to even locate Deuce due to his height." Sounded like a joke but I don't think it was meant to be.

I'm really worried about the RB position. It reminds me of the WR by committee they tried to run with in 2018 I think it was. I don't know exactly what the solution is but we need to really look at this position more closely

So he will run between the legs of the OL and DL?

Leupke just watch.

Haha! I dunno, bro. Just what I heard.

They could call it the Texas border play.

You heard it from who, Cheech?

You could go watch some video of KState and actually see what he does.

 

[Dunks3001]

You line up in that rugby position that the eagles did last year and get the yard. Dak doesn't even need to take the snap. Could be any of the backs. I'm sure most the league will have a version of that play this year

Lighten up Francis

 

[cowboys5xsbs]

McCarthy is going to do it himself

Yep, heck if they pop it past the LOS and break a tackle........, take it to the house. And there are more ways to pick up a yard against a stacked line.

Hunter Luepke is probably the guy. Big boy.
