That offside call was BS. Was no different than how most of the players for both the Cowboys and Bears were lining up. Hand and head right on the line. Especially when the C always puts the ball forward 2 feet from the actual LOS.
Fowler was great though Sunday.

Man we have some speed off the edge. Parsons, Williams and Fowler, and I'll even throw in Clark since we fully don't know how he will be fully utilized yet. Fowler is a former 3rd overall pick. I don't know if he's underachieved before joining our team since I don't watch the teams he use to play for, but he's been solid with us with his limited opportunities.

A talented pass-rusher.
Has a PFF grade of 75.9 rushing the passer.
Wretched vs the run.
Has a PFF grade of 46.9 defending the run.
To be fair, the Cowboys defense is full of guys who have grades in the 40's vs. the run.
Bohanna is the worst of the lot with a grade of 34.3 defending the run–What does he do (or not do) to earn a grade that lousy? Just fall down if he see's it's a running play?

I keep thinking stopping the run is not a top priority for this D.the only time it has been a problem is with running QBs.

Agreed. He's on pace for 8.5 sacks while only playing 1/3 of the defensive snaps, so he has definitely been productive. Has some other tackles in the backfield as well

He’s been better than I expected
For so long we got FA all wrong but last couple years we’ve done very well without getting big name, expensive players. We’ve just got solid football players

Yes, very frustrating when a guy who has been around as long as him keeps getting offsides penalties. Always on 3rd or 4th down - giving the other team a first down and fresh set of downs. The one he did at the end of the first half against the Iggles might have been the stupidest play Ive ever seen on a football field, lol. How dos a veteran fall for that? It was 4th and 4, they were happy to take the filed goal- that gave them a first down and they score a TD. That just can't happen, let alone by a vet. You are right again as Gregory had plenty of stupid penalties too. Fowler is much cheaper.

Absolutely right!
He’s come right in to be a key member of the wrecking crew pass rush we’ve got going.

BINGO!!!! He doesn't hold the edge well against the run he's a pass rush specialist.
