From the remodeled environs of Air Cowboys America, with 50,000 watts of radio power and where the truth is supreme, direct from Farmers Branch where we re-live the 50s ever day.
Hail fellows and knowledgable Cowboy fans: I was going to send an open letter to Brian Stewart, our esteemed defensive coordinator, and wish him best of luck.
However, it is a safe bet that he'd just ignore it.
Instead I will posit this premise on my esteemed and geeky fellows at the Zone.
Last year, I believe, Stew did not bring out the best in our Cowboys defense.
Yes, 13-3 is nothing to sniff at but I feel the defense could have been even better. Especially in giving up big running and dump-off plays down the middle.
Blitzes never came at the right time. At times, the defense seemed lost. Also, the seeming inability to touch the QB. So close but yet so far away.
The misuse of a struggling Roy Williams. (My god, what was RW doing on man to man in the Red Zone!!!
And the misguided and plentiful use of Jacques Reeves. Sigh.
And for some reason, special teams do not conjure highlight reels.
Yea, we hath faith in ye but we need to see a much more aggressive, attacking defense with CONSTANT blitz packages. Man to man coverage with Pac-Man, Henry and Newman that will free up a jail-break kind of attack on the opposing backfield.
So, Stew. Don't screw it up.
Garrett, I guarantee you, will have the offense revved up.
If we fail it will because of you. You need to adjust to the overwhelming talents of Ware, Spencer, Canty, Ratliff and Johnson and supplemented by Ellis, Thomas and a rejuenated Spears. Yes, Spears.
Some criticize Wade style as HC. But Wade should be the defensive coordinator. The Dallas D is too important to leave to a Brian Stewart who doesn't/can't adjust in games and especially seemed lost in the second half against the Giants.
Wadda you think about Stew? Am I wrong or am I right, esteemed fellows of the grid iron?
