We have a fullback we don't use correctly or at all. We have a near Olympian speed guy we don't use in Smith. We have a young tight end that kills it every time he gets a chance. Who we don't use enough of. We have better Linemen we don't use over Williams. And that's just offense. Dallas has so many un used weapons they either refuse to use or to stupid to realize they have them. You gonna tell me you can't give a couple of deep bombs to Smith or Austin. Line up in the power eye "old school" and run the ball with the fullback? Bet Andy Reid would be using every speed guy we have correctly.
On defense. LVE isn't the same player he was last year. Joe Thomas should be starting. Where is Gifford? See what he can do out their at Linebacker. On the D- line why do they continue to want small DT versus a non moveable guy? Teams are just running through our DT's. Our linebackers are running past the runner. And the safeties and corners are just arm tackling. Yet Garrett always talks about playing tough and physical. "REALLY"? Ever taken a look at what the word physical means, Garrett? In closing I just think Dallas doesn't employ nearly enough of their weapons. Why go conventional when you have nukes on the team? Speed kills as does a little imagination. Obviously one of these Dallas is missing. And it's not speed.
- We really don’t have a Fullback …period.
Jamele is really a big RB “ disguised “ as a FB and he clearly plays like it. Before he came here in a trade with the Radas’ . Some were making comparisons between Jamele vs Keith Smith.
When it comes to physicality – there is no comparison., Jamele is so finesse oriented and purely dependent upon positioning and leaning on tacklers vs instead of violently powering into tacklers.
- If you’re going to have an occasional lead blocking FB, have a violent, physical one that knocked the damn LB out of the hole at the line, and also handle an occasional flair pass.
Otherwise, let Tony Pollard get any carries or catches that folks are wanting Olawele to get.
Problem is .. it is Pollard who we have vastly underdeveloped and under-utilized as a weapon thus far this season, Pollard was supposed to be the gimmick, use in space,
mismatch vs LBs coming out of the backfield.
But we’re going into the 10 playing week of the season, and it’s clearly that’s just not going to happen in 2019 with Pollard in the pass game.
But Jamele is supposedly also one of the top special teams coverage tacklers. Much is talked his athleticism where he is supposed to be 4.49 speed, and can run and catch like a RB
(because he really is a RB)
All the hype was about how Moore will matchup Olawale vs LBs, but Jam’s reps and snaps have declined as the season goes on, as we already struggling trying to find plays and roles
for speedy Pollard, so why focus on a finesse FB ?

- And you are waay overdoing it with this “
near Olympian speed “ with Devin Smith, he's is a 4.4 speed guy, but he’s not Tyrek Hill.
And it’s a reason why he’s been inactive for several games on since the Saints game. The coaches have soured on him.
Otherwise not only would he be
game day active, but they would definitely try to find spots and packages to use him more on the field, and he has experience as a gunner on special teams
he could’ve contributed there, if they thought that much of his coverage.
Even WR Verdell Bryant is strictly special teams- but he excels at it far more than a Devin.
Coaches just don't seem that in awe or impressed with Devin and they obviously think they get whatever he does best from a Gallup, Cooper, Cobb or an Austin and save that game day roster
for another unit. He’s purely still here on an emergency last resort roster body.
