DMN Blog: Martellus Bennett and Ken Hamlin out for Sunday

[bbgun]

It seems when a team is missing key injured players, we fail to take advantage of it.

Eh, at this time of year, when most teams are banged up, these things tend to even out. If Rivers or Romo were sitting, that'd be different.

This guy sucks on top of being obnoxious.

Should have traded him to Cincy for their 1st, like I said.

The end.

I agree. we could've gotten a 1st round pick for a guy Garrett uses as a 260 pound offensive linemen.

Bryan Broaddus - CBS Sports
12:43 pm The majority of the offensive snaps for the Cowboys this season have been in the two-TE package. With Martellus Bennett sitting out this game, coach Wade Phillips hinted that the Cowboys offensive plan could include more three WR sets, which he feels very good about.

Fistrly, Bennett does not suck, but also, he has not lived up to what the 2-TE set was ever meant to be. What we don't know is whether it is Bennett holding back the productivcity the 2-TE set was suppose to bring, or if it's the 2-TE formation holding back Bennett's produxtivity.

At least we get to soewhat find out this week, per the CBS report above, that Dallas will run more 3-WR sets and less 2-TE sets with Bennett out innjured. I'm happy about this - not because Bennett is out, but because I'm not sold on this 2-TE set. That's because it bunches things inside and has made it easier for teams to rush the passes and runners. Unsurprisingly, that's what the OL struggles with most.

Hopefully with more WRs than TEs lining up, the middle of the field will open up more for Witten, and even Felix Jones. In fact, I would not be surprised to see the offense post its best offensive showing yet - and the majority of that being explained by the more-spread out 3-WR formations employed.

well played

Or he has been secretly benched.

Yeah, I'm thinking he could be out the rest of the year. Ball looked as good the other night.

I would prefer Jamie Curtis.

so did Michael Myers

Time to see how much of an impact Martellus has on this offense. I have a feeling Dallas will miss his blocking above all else.

Queen Latifah doesn't warrant a picture for every season, either.

Look on the bright side, Cinci is good this year so that 1st would have been a low first rounder for Bennett.

Now if it was St. Louis that offered their 1st and we sad no
