God help us.... Jerry thinks we have the 2016 Line and the 2016 Zeke again. What is wrong with these buffoon's?

Sad thing is 90% of Cowboys fans will believe him. Dumbest fans on the planet to not see the impending disaster. Probably the worst OL since the late 80's or early 2000's.

running moore off ? lol ok just running more is good only if they know how to run and block. And they have to stick with it and run 30 times a game,
and it would help if they at least tried pollard 1 game early as the main back with 20-25 carries and see what happens.

I dont have any faith that the coaches know how to do any of that, and pollard will spend most of his time on the bench.

Which do you think is easier for sub-par offensive linemen to do? Pass block 50 times a game or run block 40 times a game?
They just need to fall down and get in the defensive linan's way, Zeke will do the rest.

I think it's way easier for a billionaire to bite the bullet get off the money and get us the absolute best offensive lineman available to us at this horribly inopportune time.

This way we may not have a great offensive line but at least we might have something that could keep us competitive instead of embarrassed

Things change.

What maybe seemed worth it to him a couple years ago might not today.

What you said doesn't make sense my man. Trade a top 10 quarterback like Dak away for a quarterback like Cousins who's NOT a top 10 quarterback.... cmon bro, listen to yourself.

Yep….and if you don’t run successfully? And you continue to feature it?
Yes, because it will eventually wear out the defense.
And just because I LOVE a good rushing attack I know passing has to be in the mix as well.

Feels dirty to agree because it's wrong...dead wrong. Our Oline is a mess, especially the left side and teams won't have a problem containing Zeke. Pollard OTOH? I have more optimism IF they can get him in space somewhat.

Always easier for an OL to run block versus pass pro. This line will definitely have trouble protecting Prescott on plays with longer routes and route combos.

Defenses will be playing a lot of people in the box knowing Dallas has a weak receiving corps and their RBs are the best position group on offense. Add to that the lines in ability to hold up in protection means shorter routes and quicker releases.

Play action may be the one thing that can come up big for this team. CeeDee can definitely beat one on one coverage in a play action situation.

An OL can hold on running plays too and have false starts, which brings longer yardage situations. We may be in trouble with the FO/Coaching staff philosophy.

Jerry wants his money's worth out of Zeke.
Zeke is going to be all spent by the end of the year and no more good in Dallas.
Don't get it wrong, Jerry is sinister.

Has a Demarco Murray type feel doesn’t it? Except for maybe not the OPOY and lead the league in rushing in his final season. That would be sweet however.

I'm a big fan of dominant run first Cowboys offense. It's how the Cowboys have won championships.

I really enjoyed the 2016 versions of the o-line, Zeke and Dak.
I thought Moore captured some kind of ability to call effective run strategies through the first 7 games last year and I was very excited. Then it just disappeared.

If they can sustain whatever they were doing last year in those first 7 games for a full season then this team has a chance to compete in the playoffs.

The defense is ready.

It's up to McCarthy,Moore, Dak, Zeke and the o-line to get it done on offense.

i love it too buddy. But this team can’t do it.

At some point you have to play to your strength.
