ok, i was watching nflnetwork last night, and about 5:50 pm, they said the cowboys have a done deal with houck, something along those lines, i forgot exa ct thing this black announcer said, but he did say cowboys have houck as next offensive line coach to a deal, something like that, so i posted it,
woodysgirl did post some news to back that up, i think what it was, something was agreed upon in principle like verbally, but maybe a contract hasnt been signed yet, but verbally agreed upon, what they are waiting on, i think since they had the deal with garrett yesterday, then they are waiting for houch, jerry jones, wade phillips and garrett to get together and work on what they want and want houck to do
i also if u remember and read, wade phililips worked with the cowboys before, and he knows jerry, he has worked with wade phillips for 2 years i think, and houck has worked with jason garrett too, so i think the deal will be signed on today, if nflnetwork said its so, then they are always pretty close to things, and get headup on things, kinda like sirius radio for nfl
i think its a good thing, i remember when houck came in after tony wise left, and he took over, and helped improve nate netwon, tuneii, erik williams and larry allen, best of my knowledge, houck even went out and got another pro bowl center, and kennard i think to help our offensive line, when one player went down with a injury, im not sure about that, but i remember so vague deal about it,
so houck can help us, and he can improve on and help young guys like McQuistan, Doug Free and James Marten, and help improve Gurode even further, thats what he does mold players to becoming better than they are,
now do i think these guys we have last year and this year will be better than the 92-95 offensive line, no, that was a very special guys, with Tuneii, Gesek, Stepnoski, Erik Williams, that happens very rarely, but i do think guys like Gurode, McQuistan, Leonard Bigg Davis, Flozell Adams if he stays, remember how Houck helped Tuneii stay in shape even at his old age, and helped Erik Williams after that devasting knee injury with car accident,
now i do think that Doug Free will be a really good guy and pro bowler years to come, i am not so sure about james marten, he lost weight last year and got down to about 280 by training camp, and u cant play pro football at that size, but marten if he keeps his head on, and he does have a nasty streak at college, but he has to want to too, but i do think we will have a good line with mcquistan, doug free, gurode, davis,
i dont see kosier staying too long, unless he bulks up and gets stronger, since houck likes his offensive linemen with big butts and power, something that kosier doesnt have, if u remember in fact, the cowboys let Gesek go to the Commanders, gesek and kosier are kinda like players smaller pulling offensive linemen, but houck likes big nasty offensive linemen,
i am hoping since columbo is so big and nasty too, houck can help him this year, since strahan destroyed him in playoff game, that does need to be addressed,
