Dallas’ O-Line is good, Dak just has no awareness

2/3rds of the league’s QB’s would grin ear to ear to have our O-Line:facepalm:
Yes they would...... But unfortunately for us 2/3rds of the league are laughing at us for signing the Ten Toe Sloth to that $160 million dollar contract. We're stuck with the Sloth that is so slow reading defenses and finding open receivers that the run game has all but disappeared because smart DCs are loading the box with ELEVEN PLAYERS and daring the Sloth to pass the ball. But the Sloth refuses to throw down field, he would rather stand in the pocket with his APPLE SERIES 7 wristwatch on and count the number of seconds it takes to sack him. The O-Line gave the Sloth plenty of time to throw the ball because Romo reminded us every time receivers or TEs were open and but the football was nowhere to be found. Our Sloth is so slow at throwing the ball that the Cowboys are reporting that they intend to release anybody with ball catching skills because they're no longer needed because OUR Sloth in a BIG BALL HOG.

OL needs to be overhauled. Heavy focus in this years draft. Maybe a new OL coach.

Dak has his flaws, but I believe he can get the job done if we have some semblance of a run game and can keep from giving up 5 sacks a game.

The Ten Toe Sloth, better known as Prescot is responsible for 95% of the O-Line issues. The Sloth is too slow reading defenses and way too slow finding open receivers or TEs and the real kicker is the Sloth in now ban from wearing his APPLE WATCH on the field sense all he does is count the seconds it takes defenses to sack him instead of passing the ball. Defenses know how to handle this Sloth and they're doing it by loading the box with ELEVEN PLAYERS and daring the Sloth to throw to somebody or anybody with a star on their helmet, but the Sloth is such a HUGE BALL HOG that he doesn't want to be a team player and share it with anybody. The Cowboys just reported on their site that all ball players with pass catching skills are going to be released because there is no sense carrying them on the team if the Sloth isn't going to throw the dam ball down field.

I use to be Dak’s biggest fan but 6 years and no results....as batman says you live long enough to become the villain!
If u think it's all Daks fault and nobody else should be held responsible, then perhaps you should go watch high school soccer.

Or If you have a vendetta to drive then I get it.

La'el and Conner with two penalties each in a playoff game.. At one point they each had one back to back.. Of course, Tyron saves his for the 4th quarter. Those penalties destroyed drives so whatever they do that is "good" is neutralized by these game killing penalties.

Our O line reached its zenith 3 years ago.
Last Sunday we saw its nadir.
Aging, over the hill, still vain.
Sort of like the young girls in Pharr giggling as Raunch does his best dance moves near the bandstand.

Thats true. BUT, we still managed to lead the league in points and yards. The problem in Dallas is Dak coming out flat in too many games. AFC West games aside were he stunk, he came out flat against AZ and he did it again in the playoffs. Both were home games against very beatable opponents. No excuse for it. He has plenty of weapons around him and protection. Until he gets better, it won't really matter what we do.
The running game needs to be effective for Dak to be effective, he's not consistently accurate enough to be the focal point of this offense.

Well thats a fact. I think the Cowboys made a dumb decision allowing Zeke to push himself on the field with a bad knee. We got Pollard on the bench going for 5.5 YPC.......a constant threat to break one, and he's on the bench most series watching a gimpy Zeke dive into the line for 3 yards.

Well the O-Line is over the hill.....but that's an issue a QB earning 16% and 20% of the CAP in the next two years will have to overcome. That O-Line isnt going to be miraculously improved over the next two years (can't rely on a 25th draft pick to walk in and transform the line), Dak will have to take the responsibility.

As mentioned, the separation data says the receivers are open, he'll need to work with what he's got.
