Cowboys offensive line knows it has to improve

Continue reading...

Maybe running it more than 9 times would help. Any OL needs to get in rhythm especially in adverse situations. And becoming predictable isn't a solution either, Cowboys were completely one dimensional against the Broncos, everyone and their mother knew that the Cowboys were passing almost every down.

Yeah. That wouldn't hurt.

Yet we have had 1000 threads blaming Dak and/or Zeke.......interesting

Mmmm.. they are going to attack the run game from here on out.
Get used to it.
They'd rather Dak call out of a run play and if he doesn't- it's into their teeth.
Time for the boys to separate themselves and show that there are Men on this team.
It starts with the front line and the TE's.

HEY! Witten! Hannah!
It would be nice to assume and consume your assignment...
You guys are as much, or more important than the line itself.

Witt... Hann...

Do this team a favor.

Those were not bad games, and only 2 of 3 you mentioned were losses. Cowboys won against the Vikes. Wins are not always pretty or dominating, other guys get paid too.

They got pushed around in all three games.

If you're supposed to be the best OL in the league then play like it on a consistent basis. Otherwise you're just overrated.

Sheesh. No kidding. All three of those games were two teams stacked in the trenches, going at it for four quarters. All three were very winnable games.

Sunday, though, was a blowout. It was definitely a bad game by any reasonable standard.

No bad games for them! Banned for one year! Especially at the beginning of the year with new parts!!!
You stoopid as Hell..

I repeat: You stoopid as Hell.

Yup. The Giants, and altitude combined, took out their football legs. Never easy playing early season in Denver, and especially after a division battle.

First bad game in 3 years? Did the two Giants games and the Vikings game not happen last season?
Nah, that team squeeked out a couple wins against them last year. The Cowboys still ran the ball relatively well. A play here and there, those could have easily been W's for Dallas.

I don't get it. Are you trying to say our pass blocking is worse than our run blocking? Because they still have to block on every play.

Cowboys OL is a dominant run blocking and an elite pass blocking unit. But if a D like Denver can pin their ears back and attack the passer every down then OL is playing with one arm tied behind their back.

Garrett let Broncos dictate how game would be played.
