Are we to be concerned about Tyron Smith? **Merged**

[perrykemp]

When Tyron gave up 3 sacks in the Pro-Bowl I laughed it off as meaningless. To do otherwise would have been stupid.

In the pre-season he didn't look great -- I figured it didn't matter much -- it was preseason right?

Today, he gave up 2 sacks and had 2 penalties call on him. I believe he gave up 0 sacks all last year.

Hopefully this is nothing, but it's worth tracking IMHO.

Are we to be concerned? He got that huge extension and since then, has not looked good. Looked real questionable in the preseason and did not look good today at all. I know it's one game but we can't afford to have him regress.

I know it's silly but he was absolutely horrid in the Pro-bowl. Gave up 3 ugly sacks.

Pro-bowl is meaningless and I thought pre-season is meaningless for someone like Tyron, however, starting to see a trend here.

he doesnt have Ware to keep him in proper shape,he is going up against scrubs in practice and it shows.

Yeah this is a trend. To get a big contract and then go downhill.

This is silly. He gave up one pressure on an inside move today. The other play with the leg whip was great protection that only broke down after a while when Romo started to run downfield

Trending based on the Pro Bowl isn't very credible.

 

[RS12]

Him I'm not worried about.

 

[Sarge]

He needs to clean his act up. He's been playing poorly and he needs to get it together. .02

 

[Idgit]

I'm paying attention. It would stink if his play has slipped appreciably.

Still, overall I was satisfied with our OL play today. A team that good defensively is going to make their share of plays, but we took it to them pretty good for much of the day.

Aaron Rodgers was scared. GB got beat down as well. Lacy got a concussion. Worry about your own team and stop acting like you give a **** about the Cowboys.

Dash28 - I always notice your posts directed to me because the only time I see them is when you are having a bad day (case in point the loss today). I suspect you also kick your dog on days like this.

Anyway, it's just 1 game. Not the end of the world. Have a great rest of the day and don't let it ruin your week.

Yeah, because I'm sick of you acting like a fan of this team. And no I don't kick my dogs. I'm actually having a fine day. A Dallas loss doesn't ruin the week for me , thanks for the advice though.

I don't think so.

he was playing RT against Watt after playing LT for 2 years .. are you kidding me lol

 

[Beast_from_East]

Not worried, but if Tennessee abuses him I am going to start getting concerned.

This is a great point. People forget how young he is.

There's probably a lot of truth in that.

Hadn't thought of that. Great points.

 

[Deep_South]

I wouldn't be surprised to see all of our OL leg-whipping, holding, and even tackling if necessary to keep Romo from getting hit.
