This OL was decimated tonight. How would Dak have fared behind it?
he likely would’ve read the blitz better and at least attempted to run out of the pocket or throw the ball away. Don’t forget that Dak played behind essentially the same line in the Seattle and 1st half of the Giants game minus Martin, of course. He didn’t fare this badly. Martin is a GREAT guard, but I doubt he’s what made this O-line go from meddling, held by tape, to dollar tree assembled car levels of bad.This OL was decimated tonight.

Well, to be fair, Martin is probably the best remaining player on the line.The offensive line was only "decimated" by one more person than it was "decimated" the prior 5 games, yet the Cowboys put up 30+ points.
Suddenly, we have excuses for the QB. I wonder why?

In addition to that, He would’ve thrown in “garbage points”, which Dalton sadly didn’t do tonight
