Is Tyron Smith getting off easy again?

[NoLuv4Jerry]

the whole line is zone blocking right. Matthews is an unblocked player in that play call. Romo has an optio throw. They didn't change the play, romo just decided to throw instead of handing off.

its not smiths fault. Its not the coaching staffs fault. Its not miles fault.

its romos fault.

Okay...so the only people that need to be in on what is going on is the WR and QB? Not saying I know...just asking.

Tyron has been lights out. The bad throw caused the INT. Austin was open and Romo didn't hit the target.

Ball shouldn't have been thrown.

Austin needed to get underneath not behind the receiver. He wasn't all that open because of it, IMO.

yes, that is correct. The backside WR reads the QBs eyes on hut. If the QB looks to throw the WR continues his slant, if the ball is handed off, the WR slants in and blocks the backside safety/cb/lb.

I'm sick of loosing with this chock artist.

LOL...Nice

This is my point. He made the audible...so EVERYONE needs to execute it. And if Smith does his part...we are not having this conversation.

I am not trying to let Romo off the hook. But in critical situations EVERYONE needs to execute.

yea, I don't disagree with you, but I just don't think bagging on Tyron is justified in this case.

So no matter what we did...run or throw...Escobars responsibilty was the same...to cut Matthews?

 

[Matts4313]

the play call is a run. The run blocking is the same. I didn't see Escobar chop Matthews. I thought Matthews was unblocked.

I just know that the QB/WR have sight adjustments to bang/flash plays were everyone thinks they are running, but the QB has a pass option out of it.

Someone said Escobar was supposed to cut Matthews. I am just trying to figure out how Matthews came untouched. Because I really think if Romo is able to drop back, set and throw...things would have been different. I mean the guy made a finger tip interception...so with all that went wrong it was still a difficult int to make...but he made it.

because Romo thought Matthews would chase down the line when he saw the tackle pulling.

you've seen ware do that. Crash hard inside on unblocked plays.

either way, it was stupid of Romo to throw there.

ok....I got it now...and if Matthews chases down the line...Romo could bail out on the open side and run for days if he still had his wheels.

 

[sideon]

Mickey said the whole line thought run and that's why Matthews went unblocked.

 

[The Natural]

So now we want Tyron to carry the cross for Romo's mistake? lmao

 

[JBS]

so you are really naive enough to think last nights loss came down to 1 play? lololol - are you brand new to this sport?

the team had a 26-3 half time lead and you still want to blame the loss on one play?

Ill blame the guys who screwed up time and time again as opposed to the guy who you are questioning whether he screwed up on one play or not

 

[blackbull]

So now were blaming another guy who performs at an elite level to protect tony bozo. Cute

I'm sick of loosing with this chock artist.

I see what you did there! Bravo!!

 

[NoLuv4Jerry]

some of you all need to read the entire thread before barfing all over yourselves.

Romo has never been fast. He clocked a 5.1 forty coming out of college. Running has never been one of his strengths. Scrambling is one of his strengths and scrambling is not the same as running.

This was confirmed by some of the writers on twitter I believe

 

[conner01]

smith did exactly what he was suppose to do. it was a run play and he pulled to block. romo changed the play and not the blocking. the idea was to get the single coverage. the problem was there should not have been a pass option in the play call. have two run plays called, if they stack one side as they did you change the run play to counter it. that was far from what lost us the game. the whole second half we stopped running the ball and thats what costs us the game

They've talked about this on the radio. Only Austin and Romo knew the play at this point.

I mean, Murray doesn't even realize he's not getting the ball until it's too late.

Furthermore, Matthews wasn't Tyron's responsibility. He was Escobar's. And no, Escobar wasn't at fault on this play either, as the play was supposed to be a run and the timing was thrown off because it was not. If Romo was going to sneak a pass in that only he and Austin knew about he should have tossed it earlier and not even gotten to his three step drop.

The fault is Romo's and almost exclusively Romo's.
