Biggest disapointment

[Cowboy Junkie]

What positions on the Cowboys most disapoint you this year and who has exceeded your expectations the most.....

For me I wasnt looking to have a great Oline but they still disapoint me because they seem to not be getting any better than they were in week one...

Corners also not as good as I thought comming into season....


Ofcourse Romo is more than I expected and has exceeded anything I would have ever dreamed...

Also I think T.O. has surprised me for the good...I love the way he fights for every yard he can get...I do not worry about the dropped passes , every WR drops passes but when your Oline is stinking up the place it magnafies other areas of the game....

The biggest dissapointment has to be the Cowboys secondary problems, this is a continuation of last year I'm afraid....

To me, it is the offensive line as BP tried to re-vamp it some.

It's always been about the o-line to me. We'll only go as far as the o-line allows us to.

FS and Anthony Henry.

I agree,
I think all good teams start with the Oline and Dline and as I watched the bad teams play in the late games yesterday I felt the Clevelands looked just like the Cowboys and it was because of their weak Lines

FS and Anthony Henry.

Henry has definitely been a big let down. He's getting beaten by subpar talent. I don't think the FS position has been a problem since Watkins was benched.

Funny how Romo only got sacked twice each game the previous two weeks, Parcells stated in his press conference today that one sack was Romo's fault yesterday. The O-line is doing an adequate job as far as I'm concerned.

Adequate....what, that he was only sacked twice? How many times did he have to evade the rusher?

Romo's escapability masks some holes in our o-line.

 

[Mr Cowboy]

It's the coaching of defensive backs...........there are teams with much worse talent in their DB's who do far better than we do.

The coaching on pass rushing is also abyssmal...............

These two areas have been horrible for many years and the one constant has been Zimmer.

After training camp and during the preseason, I thought we may have solved the "big play" syndrome that has plagued our secondary as of late. Most of us figured it was the FS position that was the issue in our secondary and wanted Keith Davis replaced. Yet, we still are giving up big plays in the secondary despite picking up Coleman and Watkins. I think that is somewhat of a disappointment.

Chris Canty has been a bit dissapointing, I mean hes been lights out in run defense but he hasnt been filling the gaps and opening up space for the Linebackers when they blitz.

In order to be disappointed you have to have had certain expectations and so far most of the positions have met my low expectations for them this season except at LB as I had very high expectations of them.

Ware in particular has been a disappointment so far as I was hoping to see more big plays from him this year with Ellis playing opposite him and taking some of the attention from him.

Yeah, same here. D-line in particular.. pass rush in general. I dont care if guys are a 1st round pick or a 6th round pick..they should be able to do a better job.. and I still aint buying "scheme" as the cause of it.
