It certainly doesnt tell the whole story but per NFL Next Gen stats the Cowboys have the 24th lowest pressure rate in the league. The other side of that is teams are also blitzing at a very low rate so when they do get pressure its typically just by rushing 4 and playing coverage.

The oline sucks. Even Martin is having a terrible year.

Cooper Beebee? Thought he was supposed to be a plug and play 3rd rounder. Nope he's been average at best.

Steele? The weakest link by far.

The oline sucks big time.
If you have a great O LIne any decent QB will look good. So don't pay an average QB who is declining fast elite money. That contract will make it harder to rebuild.

Its just fundamental football. If you have no running game and can't pass protect well then defenses will load up the secondary, you will be under pressure and you won't have guys open.

I don't judge any QB who is playing with no running game threat, an offensive line as shaky as ours and coaching that can't scheme anyone open.


But this place is full of surface thinkers who need to scapegoat.
Plus minus CD we have poor receivers.
They can’t get separation and are not explosive at all

We have been spoiled since 2014. The offensive line needs to be rebuilt. To be honest, love Dak but we need a more mobile quarterback as well. The game has changed.

Even in dak 22 yard scramble the pressure came
From the right side and his first instinct was to roll to the right . He then ran into a pile and just luckily bounced back to the left


He’s jsut nervous out there. This is so much pressure . He’s not flowing
Yeah it’s like he has no idea how to handle pressure they keep bringing up his speed I honestly don’t think it’s physical limitations he just doesn’t know what to do it seems.

Just curious. Is the online's job dependent on Dak or is Dak dependent on the OLine?

Do people understand this game?

dak has been bad.
oline has been bad
dline has been bad
WR have been pretty bad
secondary has been pretty bad

coaching has been bad.

don't know why most in here feel like it has to be isolated to one thing. learn to problem solve.
right. it's easy (for me) to point at dak, because he's paid the most and who we NEED the most from, but man, the entire team has been terrible. and it seems like if one aspect improves it can have a very start effect on the others. not looking likely though.

It was telling to me that the worst pass rush in the league was able to get pressure. If that’s not enough to tell people what the issue is then I don’t know what will.

The place stunk like homer farts all preseason about how tough and awesome the Oline would be.
Don't wanna hear the complaining now
why? adding first and third rd picks to two all pros should have been a pretty solid unit and expecting that isn't being a homer, it's having optimism. being wrong never means you can't be disappointed. that's just a weird perspective.

how do you run a jet sweep and just not block the TE....they run zone right and the LG doesnt seal the double on the DT he helps push the centers guy into the play....this Oline has talent, they like everyone else on the team has no idea what the assignment is..the coaching has lost this team. I think MM sees it and has no idea what to do about it.

Cooper Beebe has played solid especially considering he’s never played that position before. He’s far from the top of the blame list. I agree everyone else blows for their own unique reason aside from Tyler Smith

Agendas. The entire team has underachieved, minus a couple players.

Tyler actually was in on the missed assigments yesterday, again i dont think its the talent as much as they are not mentally prepared...Steele is talent, as in he lost it all some how.
