Cowboys plan for containing Lamar Jackson

Why are we telling the media what we are going to do. Just shut up and go tell your players what to do and then go execute in the game.
Because we know we are not going to be able to do it and Lamar and Henry will kill us so blabber it

No different than Dak saying we are going to the SB or Romo saying “see you in February” to Brady

These guys are all yappers
 
Whoever the linebackers coach is , better have his crap together and have them in the right position for once or fire his arse .
 
The 2 things they better hammer down the defensive players throats is:
1. Disciplin- Do not lose the edge contain when rushing. you leave a crease for Lamar and he's gone for 20 yards without breaking a sweat.
2. You better tackle him when you do get pressure. You can not afford to wiff or try to 1 arm this guy.
 
you're a weird dude
No actually what's weird is you think that one hour is for you than it is for me or someone else it's still one hour it's a 1 hour game He doesn't like me to bring up the fact that you may have been not being literal but I thought I'd bring up that I'm being literal because it's literally a one hour game and I don't think that's weird for me to understand time that we live in doesn't change from game to game..

I mean I do watch a lot of sci fi so if somehow we're in a time warp as time slows down a lot maybe you have a black hole over your house then maybe that's understandable :muttley:

But I'll end again 15 hours per quarter 4 quarters equals 60 minutes 60 minutes equals 1 hour That's not changing for the Brazil game in just case you didn't understand that time doesn't change in another country Maybe you mixed up time zone with actual time...lmao

You know the irony with that though there's some players like Malachi Lawrence They were saying that he stopped rushing and gave up and was being lazy the same with the other couple defenders and what they don't understand is that's what they were doing they were waiting to make sure there wasn't a backside cut so they slowed their pursuit down to almost a walk and they were waiting that's called breaking down At least that's what it was called when I played high school football.. Some of our guys are being called lazy and not giving a full effort when they don't realize that some of those guys can't over pursue and they needed to stay because now they are on the backside of the play and make sure there wasn't a cutback before they can go help in pursuit..

But yes I agree I think we all have seen the replays and the breakdowns on the video people are over rushing They're getting out of their lanes they over pursuing and then when there's a cut back they have to stop on a dime and I'm sorry but there's not a many defenders on the field that can hang with some of these quarterbacks are that fast when they give you that leg and they plant it in the ground and go the other direction you're gone You you you're already out of the play they are basically really fast running backs..


That's the biggest take away it looks like they made a lot of progress in game two the problem is they got a lot of pressure but they over pursued and he just ducked under it went around it planted his leg went the other direction and these guys were just left holding their man thing..lol

Yeah the old saying you were Juked out of your jock....
 
The Plan should be to have #33 out perform Henry with 30+ carries. If that happens we win time of possession battle which keeps Jackson and Henry on the sideline.
that's only effective if you actually have more than 3 yards per carry you can't just run into a wall all game if you can beat their back end like we did with Washington and the Giants had we had more possessions we were gonna light up the Giants too easily the Cowboys scored 30 if our defense just gives us one or two more stops but the point is you can't keep asking this Oh see the play caller to just run to satisfy time of possession and you as a fan I mean fans keep calling for it they are very effective at lighting up the back ends if those guys are more weak on the back end what have you been told in the past if it's working you don't stop doing it until they can stop it you just keep throwing the ball because that is our strength and if that is their weakness you can abandoned the run.

And that only works if your defense is making stops because if you run too much and you're running into a wall and you're trying to win time of possession only you're eating up your own clock that you need to score quicker this is the problem with the Cowboys lately their defenses are so bad that you have limited possessions you can't waste those possessions trying to win time of possession by running because now you're running the clock out they're running the clock out now you don't have much clock that's what happened in the Giants game...


The Cowboys could have won that game had they had two more possessions on offense I really feel that way but we didn't get them so you have to go into each game and pick on the weakness of the other team now if they're balanced and you have to run and pass that's fine and yeah they should try to run the ball more but if it's working why do you need to see the run you guys keep saying the run games broke and I'm saying no it's not This is what teams have been letting us do because they can't stop our potent pass game for some reason Washington decided they were going to stay really close to the line of scrimmage,


Washington Let us pass all game why would you stop passing it was very effective if it wasn't for a couple of drops and the lack of possessions against the Giants we did done the same thing the Rams did to the Giants the Giants corners are not as good as they came out and said they were before the game That is the weak spot on both those teams we face and that's why we haven't run the ball a lot it wasn't necessary and it would have hurt us they eat up our own clock..
 
I personally don’t have a problem with your posts. If I don’t want to read it, I just move right on by.

But my thumb has a bone to pick with you. Haha
Hey that's fine I'm not everybody's flavor and I'm cool with that I'm not here to make friends i'm just here to share my passions joys and sometimes very depressive results from Cowboys games and Cowboys seasons....
 
I wonder if Henry sees this as a chance for payback on jones not even calling him when he was available ??
They may run alot in this game.

You know what that's so ridiculous whenever I hear that why does he just get really angry that the Titans gave up on him what he should be happy is he landed on a team allegedly that's better he's in a better situation than he would have been in Dallas especially if he would have been here that first year It was a horrible year we we would have not won any more games with him here and by the way that goes for right now he's not gonna help us win more games on offense we got the offense covered yes he probably improves the run game a little bit but here's the caveat to Everyone needs to understand people didn't realize it they thought Derek Henry was gonna fall off a Cliff They thought maybe you get one more Good year out of them a couple average ones and it was over that is how it typically works especially for running backs...

I do not blame Jerry Jones for not doing it because he could not tell the future just because we have hindsight now I don't think anybody knew he was gonna be playing this well Like even this year the way he started it's just incredible actually But you have to be cautious especially with running backs of bringing in $12=15 million running backs that are about to fall off a Cliff..


But he should be happy but if you don't think like I do he would not have helped we have plenty of offense we find offense I don't care that he would have been prettier for you to watch 'cause he would be he would give you something to cheer for you could buy his jersey I get it But we need more help on defense we need even more help on defense and then after that we need some help at left or right tackle but when we don't need help with is the run game because we move the ball just fine and we score just fine and I get why you would think that we should have got him but at the same time I think About these things differently..


Now I can tell you I was wrong about Bobby Wagner the first time but right now I'd be cautious about getting him but he actually played better a couple years after we didn't go get him now him we absolutely could have used absolutely no doubt that's where we should have put the money and took the risk is a couple more defenders like him,


That's why the Cowboys now have been surging to try to improve the defense but running back would not have helped man I'm sorry..

You dont blame Jerry.

Shocking.

No I don't because I can see what he was thinking at the time you know it's funny when you don't blame someone you look at it with a big picture not with hindsight did not know that this running back was going to be playing at this high level for that long If if I have to keep writing the same thing over and over and mansplain things to you I don't blame him for this non move because I don't believe it would have helped the Cowboys anyway and if you think it does you're just a hater that hates Jerry I'm not sticking you up for Jerry all the time but this move wasn't made because he was using common sense that most running backs would have hit the wall by now would have been more injury prone and not playing like this It's not his fault how about the other team that didn't go after him They didn't pay him enough they didn't want him enough how about the Titans that let him go wow how dumb was that? Maybe you don't understand looking at things with wider perspective and open eyes I said I can see why he didn't make the move and even if he did the Cowboys would still be in the same place with a terrible defense and it doesn't matter how good the offense is they're going to lose games until the defense is fixed so let's just get that straight!!

OK bud...
