Eagles Gameplan

[jazzcat22]

I think Brice might get some action, would leave Lucky on the non-active. I think this Brice might be able to stretch the field.

I noticed last week on a few plays. Whitehead was confused. He went in motion one time, Romo stopped him, and sent him back to where he was lined upped. This caused the play to be hurried, and I think resulted in an incomplete pass, or a short gain. I think the drive stalled after that.
Doesn't mean than Brice knows the play book, but he does have much more experience. As as said, if anything he can stretch the field, and being a big body, offer some blocking in the running game.

Lucky was active in last weeks game, really no reason to make him inactive. I'm hoping they will let him return kicks and punts this game. Dunbar did not look so great out there as a return man

I know he was active but he did not return punts or kickoffs, so no point in having him active. I would rather Brice be active and see what he can do on a few plays. With his size and speed he might be able to stretch the defense .

Totally agree, Brice should be active !!!

what I'm saying is without Dez in the lineup Dallas could activate both. We are down 1 WR from last weeks active roster so you put Brice in taking Dez roster spot and Lucky was already active. You end up with the same number of WR as last game

I've only seen one person pick us to win. the eagles always get so much love for being so overrated every year.

I expected them to pick the Eagles. Even if we had Dez, I think they still would pick them. If for anything, because it's a home game for them.
I don't have an issue with them picking the Eagles. But some of their stupid reasoning I may be. will need to hear what they say.

Home game, no Dez, runnning game still unknown, no Leary, no Gregory, Hardy, Ro, that would be what is expected. but if they start on the Chip genius love, that is what I don't care for.

With Dez out the for the next month or two, the Cowboys will need to lean on their running game more.

I think La'el Collins gets the nod for his first start. I don't think it will be Bernadeau. I don't know if people have heard anything or if they're just assuming he will start because he was active over Collins. I hope they're not forgetting that Bernadeau is the backup center as well as being a backup guard. I think Collins got first team reps for a reason. We'll run and we'll run left with success. I expect a 60-40 run pass split. Passing less will also protect Romo with a rookie guard out there.

I also think you need to focus on the two tight end sets finally. Losing Dez (assuming he comes back 100%) could give us an opportunity to really expand our offense and finally develop Escobar.

I don't think Brice gets activated this week, which gives us the opportunity to bring C-Mike into the running back rotation. Allow him to be our short yardage guy. Many of our mistakes happened because the receivers weren't in sync, yet we kept passing. I'd like to see us slow things down a bit, especially against a high tempo offense like Philly...

What's most important against philly now though, is that they don't have any players that I'm afraid of. There is no ODB Jr. I really do think that missing Gregory might impact this team more immediately than Dez. We need to get after the quarterback, but against a team that I'm just not afraid of in the air, it'll be good to see if Russell can replace Gregory and improve the run defense.

I also think people are being hard on our running game so far. We simply didn't focus on running the ball enough, partially because of all the mistakes the receivers had. Randle is 14th in the league in rushing yards. I'd like to see McFadden more involved in the next game as well. 10 snaps is not enough for this guy.

Agree;

- Although Gregory is a beast. Russell, from what I saw, didint look to shabby. I am excited to see what he can do.

- My fear is, they went away from the run, not becuase of the score, but becuase they dont trust any of the backs. Not like they trusted Murray.......having said that. I think were running the ball this game. And I think the guys will be okay.

- If we cant run it, and slow it down, and Philly gets up early, I dont think the coaches will hesitate. It will become a shootout and they will let Romo sling away in an attempt to win the game. And I think we could win it that way too...................I just dont want to have to do that.......; The last thing I want to see is Romo in the pocket, play after play.

- I hope the do bring up C-Mike, it makes sense....

This game will be a big test for Terrance Williams. I feel they'll put Maxwell on him on 1on1 coverage and cheat their safety's towards the run and any screens.
