Jayron Kearse Is Now The Defensive Signal Caller

[fivetwos]

Whats interesting is Wilson's snaps doubled, and it looks like they were easing him in. He is not an easy guy to keep on the sidelines and will probably be playing 80% of the snaps by next week.

Ive been saying it shouldnt be Wilson or Kearse, but both. It looks like they could be in agreement. Is suspect you will see one at LB in some Nickel or Dime sets with the other at SS. And maybe Wilson at FS in run D packages

Now that you mention this, I didn't even notice Hooker on the field.

Did he play?

 

[fivetwos]

Kearse has really shored up the back end and makes the D much better than it was.

Gregory, Parsons, Diggs and Kearse give us guys making plays on several levels of the defense.

Been a while for that.

Anyone who claimed Kearse would be the green dot guy for the 6-1 Cowboys back in June would have been ridiculed beyond belief lol.

Fersher, fersher

He's at the top of my list for being re-signed along with Gregory. Hope to bring back Neal and Kazee as well, but I can live with it if they move on to greener pastures.

Neither Neal or Kazee are priorities IMO.

If Hooker and Wilson can stay healthy I like them more than those 2.

But keeping Kearse is critical.

Yes. He played 41 snaps

Kearse is a poor man's Kam Chancellor.

Not sure on the safeties yet. Wilson laid some wood Sunday night and Kazee has made more plays in coverage (and had more mistakes) than Hooker. I could probably flip a coin right now over Kazee and Hooker. I do like the idea of Wilson being part of a three-man group with Kearse and Kazee/Hooker since Kearse plays some nickel/dime linebacker.

I was hoping the Cox could eventually supplant Neal and maybe we'll just turn that role over to him next year. However, I doubt at this point that we re-sign LVE, so I'm good with bringing Neal back since Parsons would be our only true proven LB otherwise. At this point, though, I want to see how Neal plays for the rest of the year.

Other than those, I think we should be able to get Watkins and Urban back for cheap if we want them for depth. If Hill or Gallimore come back and play well, it might not be necessary to bring both back, though.

Micah can do more without the dot. Without the. He can line up anywhere without affecting the communication but with the. He's not lining up on the edge and still being able to communicate with everybody needs to do

This.

You can't have the guy you move around a lot calling out plays. It'll be hard for him to communicate with everyone. Plus once the QB hears his voice he knows exactly where he's at and possibly what he's doing. We want offenses guessing whether he's playing linebacker or DE.

 

[fivetwos]

Yes. He played 41 snaps

Thanks.

I had sufficiently numbed myself due to other circumstances lol but wow I didn't notice the guy.

Thanks.

When you dont notice a DB, thats a good thing

 

[RoboQB]

Thanks.

Not noticing your FS was even on the field is a great indicator of
a good night by the defense... lol

I think I saw him twice. What a game that was!

 

[Chocolate Lab]

Hopefully he’s this generations James Washington.

When he brandishes a camera tripod we'll know for sure.

Dan Orlovsky also stated on that show that after the first Minnesota TD drive the Cowboys played mostly man coverage.

 

[ultron]

Hopefully this is a strategy or attempt to get this dude to resign here! Easily the best safety we’ve had since prime Roy Williams; in my humble opinion

 

[MyFairLady]

Loving Kearse dude has been fantastic.

 

[KMY_Amber]

It's gonna be interesting to see which of the 3 safeties the team tries hardest to re-sign. Probably only getting 1...

Goodness, the Cowboys actually have multiple safeties that other teams won't???????????????????? My, how times have changed.

Have to applaud the Front Office, and Quinn for bringing in a few key pieces he wanted.

 

[Bullflop]

Somehow, Dan Quinn has worked his magic, to exact a really great influence upon Jayron Kearse!

I always felt our players would respond well to him, well before this season ultimately commenced.

Kearse versatility and productivity actually surprised DQ.

Kearse just needed an opportunity to be the guy.

 

[Mr_437]

Ok, so since he's calling the plays can Stephen get him signed up for next year, at least.

I apologize I didn’t mean to say man coverage, Orlovsky said they mostly ran a “ZONE” coverage.
