It's a big loss for the team and offense for sure, but this happens to all teams got to find a way to make the magic happen without him
Tyron is nearing the end of his career. Dallas has a problem of not recognizing how the current player is but rather looks at HOW the player once was. Tyron is not that player he used to be. His injuries are mounting. Dallas fails every year in that they look at him as that guy and never makes contingency plans. That is a serious problem. Dallas will lose today because our OL sucks. Dak will suffer as a result. I see 5 or more sacks today.
Great postI would agree as here is a breakdown of games missed by Tyron Smith due to injury in his acreer:
2011- 1
2012- 1
2013- 0
2014- 0
2015- 0
2016- 3
2017- 3
2018- 3
2019- 3
2020- 1
In 2021 Smith has a team cap hit of $14.025M and $8.865M in dead money, making it possible Dallas could save roughly $5.2M against the cap by trading/releasing him after this season.....provided of course they can find a replacement.
The fact is Dallas has a lot on their plate after this season in terms of contracts/personnel moves as the O-Line is not what it was (Frederick retired, Smith getting hurt more routinely, Collins showing some injury issues, Williams being a question mark) and Dak is still having to show he is worth a new contract.
100%. It is comical how bad it is.You hit the hammer on the head. Also explains why we over value our own talent. When the last time we traded someone and got more than a 3rd rounder for them? We often sign our guys to contracts that we can't get out of or makes his trade value trash. I mean Jerry you have to look at yourself since you don't want to get a real GM. As a GM jerry is trash. Good owner/marketer for the cowboys but trash as a GM.
Knight will be fine. Quick feet and athletic. Just get the ball out quick.
So we will be calling 4 to 5 step drops and waiting for 12-15 yd routes develop down the field.

Unfortunately Dak is not known as a QB that can go through his reads quickly and survey the field to where he can get rid of the ball in less than a 4-5 second time.....and I do not see the OL holding up that long of Atlanta jambs the WR's and crowds the DL.
Knight at RT
Steele at LT
What could go wrong
