Luepke won’t be a factor at all.

I think this game against Miami will be a loss. If the Cowboys get behind by two scores they’re done. Mike and Dak go into panic mode when that happens.

This offense helps the defense. Get a lead.

I would love to see us commit to the run on the road. Keep the Dolphins off the field. Find a way to use Pollard, Rico AND Luepke!!! For cryin out loud he falls for 5 yards. Be committed like Jalen Hurts.
Oh, the Cowboys have the guts to succeed. How do you set Lawrence and Parsons to again dominate against the outside runs?

The Dallas offense is capable of producing at a high clip against any opposing defense...do it.

Yes, lets be more like the Eagles. Their offense is really humming.

The idea that running the ball more means better TOP needs to die. First downs keep possession, and you do that by throwing the ball.
It was a joke. Have you not heard the Jalen Hurts comments this week? Keep up people.

Has Parsons EVER dominated against outside runs? I haven’t seen it. That’s just not his game.
I think its more about moving him around and putting him in position to help contain that as an LB. If you put him on the edge or dt to stop the run while getting double or tripled team with the rb running right at him it slows him down. They need to us his position flex more in these situations.

Did you listen even? His affect has always been at the line of scrimmage at the end. What about that do you not understand as being responsible for runs there as well. The opponent is merely blocking him out of the picture, even if it involves continuous holds. Then what part do you then not understand has to be adapted to eliminate the run right where he stands? Sounds like passing the buck for producing to Jerry...really?

One alternative...so is moving an aggressive large man responsible for the side opposite of Lawrence and making Parsons more responsive to the run and also add a linebacker with front first response with size as well. 100 yards of rushing success for any reasons, is the final protective line and when it has to be just shut down. Dallas can keep up with a game based upon keeping up with air successes.

Good teams can win games in multiple ways. Sometimes it's the offense, other times it's the defense and takeaways.

If you only have one way to win then you have limitations. All teams have flaws, but you can't have only one way to win.

Luepke can't get you one yard on the goal line. I read right here in the zone. He is too slow of foot and will get tackled. In reality I do not side with those posters. Luepke could be used in ways we haven't even tried. Short yardage and goal line as well as a pass catcher coming out of the backfield. I think he is tough enough to handle it but what do I know I am not at practice. Agree with your take here on running the ball in Miami. Take time off that clock and make Tyreek sit.

Stop a dominant run game with press man against the Cheetah. This one could get ugly.

How does Micah get triple teamed as a DE during a run at him? I've never seen it.
