You also said Philbin was a bad coach when he deserved a Gold medal for last years performance because “he didn’t have any pro bowlers” lol. So forgive me but. When I’m deciding between doctors who do this for a living. And guys at home on the couch. I’m taking the doctors word.

LC missed an entire season because of the hip.

toe dancing in a workout video doesn’t do it. 8/

im not a Philbin fan. He’s big buddies with Mike, just like Nolan.

good, he owes it to the team to stay in shape and perform to the best of his abilities.

that's the nature of the profession he chose.

fact is you want failure. Its the very air you breathe.

There is a lot of money tied up in LCollins future. 30 million in base over 2022-24. [Dallas can out the contract after 2021.]

No one knows how bad the hip is. HIPA law? His agent(s) did a good job.

He was a very good RT before the hip/conditioning problems.

They are giving him a season to earn his money.

Odds are against him.

One of the reasons I pushed for one of the blue chip Tackles in the draft.

^^bingo^^ Kudos to you for stating what many of us are silently thinking. I banged the table for a tackle in the draft within the first 3 rounds. Lets hope we did enough on that front.

You can't just dump on a guy because he's friends with McCarthy. Philbin did a solid job last year with an imploding OL. Nolan showed himself to be a fraud........... Philbin did not.

Imploding OL "does not equal" Good Job by Philbin. thats an excuse.

he was likely given a pass by Jerry and Co because of the injuries and lack of depth at both Tackle spots.

What? With a serious run of injuries, he cobbled together an OL that kept the Cowboys in the playoff chase until the last week.

Your bitterness over Philbin from the start is clouding your judgment. He did a more than adequate job last year as OL coach.

Last year the talk was Collins was too out of shape. From this gif he looks pretty dang svelte for an OL. With Tyron giddy after his offseason surgery this line will be better than it has been in a couple years. Gonna be a fun season.

Man, I hope you are right!
They are the keys to the running and passing game.

HIPAA does not apply. It would only apply to covered entities, i.e. health care providers, medical billing, etc. It also does not apply for worker's compensation, which Collins injury should be covered under. In worker's comp, HIPAA does not prevent the doctors from providing medical information to employers. HIPAA would also not prevent the Cowboys from coming out and saying exactly what the injury/surgery was, but there is no benefit in them doing that. That's why player's show up on injury reports (that and gambling purposes).

Collins was just starting to become a bonafide stud RT before last year. Bring it on baby.
Not saying you can take a lot away from a 5 second toe tap drill, but I could take away three very large individuals that didnt look like they have been spending the off season in a McDonalds drive thru.
That I could easily see and identify in a very short clip.

Agree.

BTW, did Philbin come up with that Toe-Tap workout?
