Only a matter of time til he gets hurt.
If he was in OTAs getting destroyed would people be like.... So what no pads.
The obvious answer is no.
But keep pretending to be cool and say none of this matters.
Actually why do teams even have OTAs? After all I heard on the zone that it doesn't matter.
I honestly don't remember a player getting destroyed in OTAs. Injured maybe, but not destroyed. Continue on with your anti-bashing routine.
"But keep pretending to be cool" Toruk's quote of the day. I too want to pretend to be coooool!
It does make you wonder though when all the OTA/TC reports last year were that Tyron couldn't even touch D-Ware, and we know how that worked out.
But I wouldn't be at all surprised if DLaw turns out to be a very good player.
LOL...Precisely.If he was in OTAs getting destroyed would people be like.... So what no pads.

Demarcus Ware had 4 sacks in his first three games last year after the reports of him doing well in camp against Tyron. The issue with Ware wasn't that he couldn't play anymore, it was that he was playing injured most of the season.

That's true, he only fizzled when the injuries started to take its toll.
lol! Really? The reaction would be that tame?The sad thing is if DLaw was getting killed in these unimportant practices the realist or the wishing for a 3-13 season crowd, this makes me chuckle, would be in here like this:
In the midst of all of the negativity regarding our DL, how come no one is mentioning how good DLaw is looking? Some will say that it is the underwear Olympics but in pass rush situations you can still get a good look at who is doing well and who is stinking it up. Plus without pads, DLaw really cannot bullrush so all of his moves have to be speed related type moves. So he is not only doing more than holding his own against Tyron but he is doing so with a 1/4 less of his pass rushing repertoire.
A DL of Selvie, Hanks, McClain, and DLaw with a steady rotation of capable big and hungry young players playing 15 to 20 snaps with their hair on fire is going to shock the hell out of people. If DLaw can be the table setter that I think he will be, look out because we are going to beat the hell out of teams.
An Offensive Lineman actually depends on pads to wall off defenders. So, yeah, the "underwear Olympics" does make it difficult to tell how well players are doing.
Truth doesn't fit his agenda. I think any poster with the least bit of football knowledge knows that OTAs are more of a mental-learning type of practice instead of a physical practice. The OP really thinks he is doing great impressing the realist with his massive knowledge of the game. Let him have his moment lol.
My sentiments exactly. I would have love to have kept a healthy Ware but Ware's health has become problematic. I wish him the best thought.I expect Ware to do really well in Denver if he is healthy; however, releasing him was still the right decision for the Cowboys even if he has an All Pro season in Denver. The probability of him being injured again combined with the incredible salary was just too much to make it worth it for a team that didn't make the playoffs the previous season.

No, an offensive lineman depends on his hands in pass pro.
OL pass pro techniques 101 for the less informed is as follows:
The only disadvantage and OL has when pass protecting is a DL knowing that he won't get chopped/cut.
- Recognition (pads free)
- Kick step (pads free)
- set feet (pads free)*
- punch (pads free)
- Sit your anchor (pads free)
- mirror DL (pads free)
- * If the DL takes an outside rush skip the next steps and force the DL wide, upfield, and pass the QB.
According to your very limited football knowledge, the OL still put both fists on their chest with their elbows pointed out to "wall off defenders" instead of using their hands to punch and hold while mirroring the defender with their footwork. Now your opinions makes perfect sense to me.

Find some articles to copy and post from. If you look hard enough, you will find the article that says everybody is this thread is right except you. Just my last bit of advice. Carry on.
