Connor Williams is not a starter

[texbumthelife]

We're discussing the actual sack that changed the complexion of the entire drive.

Oh, so now a second down sack ended the game? Is that how the NFL works?

Keep moving the goalposts.

 

[Stash]

I’d give McGovern a shot

I have no idea why they haven't. Is he that bad?

 

[fivetwos]

Go back and watch the tape. On the three man rush play the man who got through came from the right side, which was Looney and Biadasz. Connor may have given up the one before that, but the three man rush play was 100% on the right side of the line.

The rewatch is a different beast than the first take.

When I get over this, around Thursday, I'll watch again and see who really got beat up front.

I'll post it as a relief and the rockport can tell me what an ******* I am for saying it.

Rinse. Repeat.

See you all after the Browns.

Thanks Jerry. All you.

Again, look at the drive.

This time with your eyes OPEN.

Move Collins to guard and leave Martin outside for now. Tyron isn't playing much this year, so we need to give our new LT some more experience while 7-9 might get it into the tournament.

Terrible weak player, cut him and move on

Games don't end on second down sacks. Dak had two more downs to score. You think Russel could have scored? Crazier things have happened. Like last week. You want to be emotional and angsty, that's fine. You're wrong on your facts though.

Williams got blown up so many times today or missed blocks that it's an absolute embarrassment to have him on the field. He is either incapable of performing at the level needed or he is just is uncoachable and can't comprehend what he is supposed to do. Sad that we are still wasting time and money on this obvious liability.

He was a great college guard when healthy, as opposed to Williams who was a solid college tackle who sucked when flipped to guard.

McGovern’s injury history is his limitation.

 

[Howboutdemcowboys31]

Just get McGovern and Biadasz in there full-time. It's time to find out because Connor Williams and Looney blow

 

[J_Allen]

He never has been. He's undersized and gets overpowered routinely. We need a road grader at guard and he definitely isn't.

The guy getting "emotional" is the one trying to excuse Connor Williams.

 

[CarolinaFathead]

Maybe not but he is what we have right now. Let’s hope we get healthy and he continues to develop so that we can have quality depth.

If true, he certainly deserves the chance. Williams has shown he's not a left guard.

 

[fivetwos]

Now that Looney stepped aside on his own account, no need to go back to him at this point

 

[Clove]

Looks like Will McClay didn't do as good as we thought. We just need players to step up and I see very few players doing this.

 

[fivetwos]

Realize how difficult it is for Jerry and children to realize a 2nd round pick yet again stinks.

They fill the room with people that tell them otherwise.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

I'm not ready to give up on him coz IMO he playing out of position. Been saying for 2 years, he should be our swing tackle. This way he gives us a swing tackle AND a chance to see if can replace Tyron Smith.

Three man rush on the previous play with the sack too. Or so I recall. Don't have the video to check.

I remember the sack coming from the RDE going inside on our LT while out LG stayed connected at the hip with our C while blocking no one.

 

[buybuydandavis]

I said that, he could have run and gotten out of bounds or thrown it away and gotten another shot. I won't put that on Dak though although it was a bad decision at the end of the game.

But it's good to take a shot when you've clearly extended the play and it's a scramble in the secondary.

He got a mini Hail Mary to 3 WRs in a good spot in the endzone. At that point in the game, I take that. Unlikely to get anything better on the next play. Let a WR make a play.
