Hudson Houck

..yeah...get out.

 

[Cowboy Brian]

he deserves a boot for this

 

[InmanRoshi]

Everyone of his 5 guys was completely and utterly unprepared to play today. They all took turns being humiliated.

That's a lot of $$$ up and down that unit for such a spectacle.

why the vikings have one of the best defensive lines in football? if every offensive line coach on the teams spencer and ware dominated lately, there would be alot of openings at that postion

The OL didn't even show up today. For the past three years Romo has been dodging pass rushers left and right.

Hudson Houck has forgotten more about football than most people here will know. Coached USC and the Rams in 70's and 80's when they were dominant runners. Coached the Cowboys during dominance. SD and Miami all ran well under him. I doubt he went senile. This O Line has been vastly overated for years.

It wasn't just the Vikings winning their 1 on 1 matchups. They were getting to Romo completely untouched because our OL couldn't recognize simple twists, stunts and zone blitzes diguises. Look at the play that Kevin Williams faked the zone blitz, faked Kosier out and then went competely untouched down the middle. Kosier wasn't expecting that in a million years. That's lack of preparation, pure and simple.

The bottom line is this is probably the most highly paid OL in the NFL, and they played Detroit Lions caliber football today. Someone has to be held accountable for that, even if he is one of Jerry's good drinking buddies who has ties to the "glory days".

How much of a factor was crowd noise on our OLINE seems like we were slow off the ball quite a bit. Think maybe we couldnt hear the snap count?

Dude's gotta be gone. Let him book his own flight back to Dallas.

What an idiot.

Get rid of Garrett and Houck. Let Wade actually pick his offensive staff. Win more playoff games.

Obviously playing at home gives your OL and DL an advantage, especially when the crowds are into it.

One of next years goals HAS to be to get HFA. We lost twice to the Giants and once to that lousy Denver team, win just 1 of those 3 games, and todays game wouldnt have been in their place.

This.

I'm tired of Romo's ability being buried behind a bunch of bums.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

need to get a new C

Gurode will always hold us back if he remains there

Name better centers in the NFC.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

Name better centers in the NFC.

none come to mind

but when you have 3 pro bowlers on the line, 4 former 1st and 2nd round picks

and you play like this...

 

[bud42]

That's right guys,blame it on Houck. Seems to me there were more than a few posters thought he was the MAN down the stretch!

Dont remind me of the Denver game, I paid $1400 to go see them lay an egg vs a pretty bad team. Still stings.

 

[utrunner07]

This is what happens when your starting left tackle goes out in the 1st quarter and you are facing the best pass rush in the league. There is really no reason to blame Houck for this one game. If you want to look at his season and decide he needs to go, fine, but just looking at this one game is short sided and not fair to him.

I have told many of you over and over how important flozell is and how if he ever went down you would see exactly how important he is and you would feel pretty dumb for calling for him to be benched or cut....well...unfortunately today is that day.

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

The oline did some push against the run especially early and I do not blame him for the pass rush we were eating. Not calling playaction or moving the pocket to slow down the rush wasn't helping matters.
