Diggs and Bland

[WillieBeamen]

What is the point of paying two CBs north of $20m (Bland will get paid either this offseason or next) if you are going to be that pathetic.

And its not just in coverage either. They cant tackle like they were watching Deion lowlights

 

[BigTx66]

Agreed. Diggs is an absolute joke at CB, and anyone that thinks he is good, is delusional. Bland has had his moments early on, but is getting a good dose of Cowboy incompetence as he plays more and more. Can't forget how DK Metcalf used Bland last year for an almost record number of pass reception yards and TD's. All the homers made excuses for him, but he was simply awful and still is.

They are WEAK!

 

[Killerinstinct]

I agree. It's hard to believe these guys were so dangerous to even throw a pass in their direction at one point in time.

 

[J_Allen]

I never wanted us to resign Diggs. He gave up way too many big plays. He may have had seven interceptions or whatever the number was, but he gave up huge yardage. Give me someone who defends the ball and gets three picks per year over that.

 

[Tabascocat]

A dominant front seven would help them tremendously. But, we all know we are not getting that

 

[stilltheguru]

I will say I'd take bland anyday over 7 though.

Add CB to the list of positions of great need.

Man…… The cowboys need to rebuild like half of the roster still.

What DK did to him shouldnt be legal

 

[CowboyStar88]

Diggs and Lewis can walk for all I care both are liabilities out there

 

[loublue22]

there's no way to pay them both + Micah + Dak and Lamb, I would try to trade Diggs

 

[buddahjoe445]

the problem is soft zone Zimmer plays. Zimmer doesn't do anything to scheme to help the players he has. same problem with Fat Mike.

The front seven did fine tonight. Burrow was getting killed all night. Secondary, especially diggs and blamd, got cooked all night.

 

[yentl911]

Overrated and soft

Can’t match up nor do they have any play recognition

Couple that with the two clowns we have at safety and you get this defense where we usually give up at least 30 points a game

3rd and 5 and they are 12 yards off the ball. Who does this besides this team???

That’s the frustrating part

Embarrassing

 

[GoCowboysGo]

Maybe they aren’t tackling because there’s no more depth?

 

[DasTex]

Improved the pass rush and you'll get an improved Diggs and Bland.

 

[Starforever]

Toast and Burnt Toast!

 

[Clove]

When you take Quinn's high pressure defense away and bring in Zimmers soft coverage defense, this is what happens.

 

[stilltheguru]

People will bring up pass rush like bland or diggs ever made a play in a late season big game from 2021-2023 when the dline was elite. Stop playing games

I called out that crappy Zone in the game thread


BUT

They arent tackling which makes it even worse.
