I can't help but think that with Markquese Bell's ability to play S or LB makes him a valuable piece in Eberflus defense. I really wish Dan Quinn was still here. In my mind, the Cowboys should have hired DQ as the HC and should have worked something out with him to take over after McCarthy. I get it though. That'd potentially impact McCarthy as well.

Quinn was the guy who brought Bell in to develop. He really utilized him well.

Anyway, I really like Bell in the run game as a LB or in the box safety.

I wonder, how can Eberflus best utilize Bell in this new defensive scheme? Will he be a linebacker or safety?

This was already exposed. He shouldn't touch the field as a lb on early downs.

.... I would try him at safety. KInda small body for LB. Besides he has speed to cover field.

After what I saw from Quinn against GB and last year against Philly? I don’t think we want anything to do with him.

Why would DQ want to be the HC in Dallas when he can all the decisions in Washington?
 
DQ awesome coach.
Yeah, say what you want about him as far as playoffs. Quinn got the Commanders to NFC championship game.

Same thing for Kellen Moore. Easy to scapegoat someone who looks like Leave it to Beaver.

Zimmer took a team to a championship game and this board thinks he sucks. Difference is Zimmer got there with his unit performing elite. Quinn got their on the back of his qb just like Matt Ryan dragged him.
 
He'll never get a bigger role than he had in DQ's system. He fits that SS/LB hybrid spot perfectly.

Here, I think he's just a backup SS.
 
Bell will not play LBer. That was out of necessity and failed miserably by the end of the year once teams started to run at us. As a nickel LB in 3rd and long situations, I wouldn't mind seeing it.

I'll always respect Zimmer. He was one of the coaches making Deion look competent.

Anyone who can do that deserves my respect.

DQ also participated in Free Agency.

But let's keep blaming the HC. Their is a reason DQ left.

JD got them to the champ game.

Quin sucks! He threw the GB game so he could get a jump on HC jobs...
 
No, just no. It's asking too much a guy of his size to take LB reps. I know he made some plays at that spot a couple of years ago, that was more about his natural talent and Quinn's ineptitude.
