Farniok vs Dj Reader

[Pass2Run]

Agreed. Dak was way off. Even got ruffled after several sacks and hits. Had that deer in the headlights look. What he needs to do is get after the Oline the way Brady does to his, but Dak is too brotherly friendly with his Oline. Sometimes, the Oline needs a good verbal ribbing to p*ss them off and get them fired up. Regardless, I knew Dak and the Offense would come out playing rusty as heck. That's what happens when you coddle and protect them, instead of making them play a game or two during preseason. Plus, this Oline and WR crew is a mess. That's on the coaches and front office.

Tony used to stay on top of the offensive line like a champ.

Farniok actually did better than expected considering he was not allowed to practice or play with the 1st string Offense all summer. Both Farniok and Tyler had a similar amount of plays where they got beat, but overall, they both actually did well.



They just need a little more time together. I believe they could become a tandem power duo occupying our left side of the Oline. If they do, Cowboys will be doing great for years to come due to their youth, strength, aggressiveness and willingness to get better.

I agree. Farniok played like a champ, given his circumstance. He played well against stiff competition, too.

Agreed 100%. Management really screwed this up. To know that they would be breaking in a retooled o-line and receiving corps and not giving them live reps in preseason is inexcusable. Seeing the passing game falter and getting away from the run when it was working is inexcusable. It was frustrating to watch, knowing much of the negativity could've been avoided, or at the very least mitigated simply by taking the training wheels off and allowing that offense to work through their issues before game 1 of the regular season.

I've seen him scream the crap out of the O-line a few times. The left tackle took the brunt of his anger on more than one occasion. I forget who it was.

You could not have said it better. Even Brady got out there for a little while to shake off some rust.

It seems to be a trend now. Play no starters so they don't get hurt. What good did it do them? Dak's hurt, Kearse, who else? In week 1. I guess that's ok.

Farniok was better vs power than vs speed.

He appears to be stronger than Connor Williams from last season and stronger than OC Biadasz.

I really wanted to Tyler to play LG this season because his power would really help OC Biadasz.

Tyler muscled Vita Vea to the ground. Very few OLinemen have that ability.

So you keep telling us all, yet Biadasz remains the better lineman and its the disparity is getting bigger.
