Colombo and the OL

[Number1]

why is Collins still in the NFL?

Williams can't handle NFL DTs, so why is he playing LG?

Looney looks distracted and comm seems utterly broken?

where's the nasty attitude?

they were out manned and over powered

 

[Praxit]

....yeah, OL layed an egg yesterday. 4-5 sacks on Dak. Its a bad situation right now.

Nothing Colombo can do about personnel or where a player plays. He can just coach the guys on the squad, working on technique.

I'm willing to bet Jerry dictated that move to RT and was eager to pay Collins based off potential instead of waiting to see how he'l do there first.

 

[Gaede]

It's too bad Colombo has had to take over in this lame duck scenario.

I like the guy and want to see him do well in his coaching career, but this is a bad situation to be in for him.

We just made the very rare move of firing the OL coach midseason. Did you think it would take 10 days to turn the ship around?

I didn't expect worse

If the same problems persist, maybe firing the OL coach was not the solution.

give up 5 sacks...….………..fire OL coach...…………..give up 5 sacks

And if you cant change things midseason, then what was the purpose of firing the OL coach to begin with?

I think it's pretty evident what the purpose of Alexander's firing was

It was to provide cover for a failed qb. Same as the Cooper trade, same as pretty much everything they've done recently

Dak sucks and Garrett is a scumbag idiot.

To be fair Dak ran himself into some of those sacks. It is like Dak doesnt know where the open guy is going to be...almost like he forgets where to go with the ball when the snap comes. Then he runs around like a chicken not even looking down field. WRs were open he was not pulling the trigger.

 

[Roadtrip635]

It's going to take more than 1 game, to undo what was taught and done during the offseason and 1st half of the season. It was disheartening to see the pressure allowed and lack of holes in the running game. The TEs are atrocious at blocking, it may actually be easier to teach a backup line man to catch an occasional pass than keep trying to teach these scrub TEs how to block.

Most of those sacks were on Dak, not the OL.

You change to have a chance to improve, but its not guaranteed that you can overhaul the entire blocking scheme they spent an offseason building.

Colombo is a good coach. Got to watch him in camp for a few summers now. Very dedicated to his profession.

 

[Dallasfann]

Dak creates 3-4 sacks a game for opposing defenses. O-line probably just rag on him while they watch film.

exactly Columbo was here when they were playing good, so its not him or the rb coach, not saying th coach is great. I bet columbo has no power to change ol Collins to LG. Williams to bench this year, Galloway to rt. Dak to streets, Garrett to mars, lineman to retirement home or another team like Philly!!!!

I think the OL is seething in meetings. While they have been below their standards, it has to piss them off when they block it up and he reverse pivots into a blocker and takes a sack.

 

[nightrain]

Moving Collins to RT has been a disaster. They need to get him back inside.

OK Colombo has been in charge a few days.

Clearly changing the playing styles like Alexander did had a negative affect on the OL.

Williams is a rookie. Only been a Cowboy a little over 6 months. Geez give him a little time!

Looney is a backup. Expecting anything more than backup production is setting yourself up for disappointment.

Colombo said he would address the nasty attitude. You can't flip it on like a light switch. Chill!

to give the fan base a false image of them finally being proactive when they're not. It's a look we care don't you see how much we care we're doing something we never do because we need you to think we care because we really do care how you spend your time and money.
