Kaiser Rolls out analysis 10/29

[Kaiser]

Remember this offseason when half the threads were about our DL being a disaster? Remember that?

David Irving is beasting and they should leave him at DT to play a ton of snaps. Tyrone Crawford is a run-defense guy playing out of position and he had a strip sack and blocked FG. DLaw is on a pace for 22 sacks and Collins is also an excellent player. I’m starting to like Richard Ash as 15 snap guy as well.

The Corners are settling in as well. Scandrick had a very good game, even while playing injured. The blocked FG return was an excellent, heady veteran play. Lewis looks like a third year yet and seems like a guy who could be a Josh Norman when he has experience. Anthony Brown was inconsistent early but seems to be settling in as a solid CB at this point.

This was the first game where Dallas caught the breaks, which was great to see. We could be 6-1 with a few more breaks (or a healthy Sean Lee) and it was great to see the Pick 6 batted pass drop into the hands of a high character guy like Byron Jones.


Random notes –

I love the call to go for it on 4th Down in the 1st Quarter. It shows confidence in the OL and in Zeke and it sends the message that Dallas can control the game. The drive with 4.30 left in the game for a FG was exactly that, complete control of the game that the opponent couldn’t stop. We almost did that against Green Bay but just had too much time to kill off the clock.

I love Mike Nugent! He is awesome! And hopefully he is cut tomorrow because Dan Bailey makes a miracle recovery. Me want my blankey.

Alshon Jeffrey was the FA WR I wanted this offseason and we had the money to do it. We just didn't want to give out a multiyear deal and get away from the draft strategy. I get that Twill was a bargain and a familiar target for Dak, but just imagine what this team would do if you had him or a guy like that at WR2. Then think about what a speed WR like a non-headcase DeShawn Jackson could do.

Mr. K Brown had a terrible game he was beat a few times he hasn't looked as good as last year.

The defensive line has always been that position where we had a bunch of "potential" guys. The super fan looked at this group and saw a potential monster in the making if Lawrence, Irving, Taco, Tapper, etc all break out. The skeptic looked at it as a group without a single dependable guy.

It's refreshing to see some young talent truly break out along this positional group.

Or, maybe it means that Garrett had no confidence in his defense.

 

[LocimusPrime]

I think we are a RDE, linebacker, and safety away from being a top defense. Maybe a runstuffing DT also

That about right..throw in a HC and the Cowboys are there..

Ha! The team and fans have to confidence in Garrett.

If the Cowboys want someone like that they should just draft one.

JMO but you can win super bowls with TWill and Butler types. Invest the draft resources in the D.

Lol, I agree. We need to upgrade about 37% of the starting players on D.

Agree L.P.

Correct: he was full of suck last night

Alshon is averaging like 40 yards per game receiving while his QB is having a MVP caliber season.

I don't think Wentz is looking anything like an MVP.

 

[Verdict]

We need one more really good linebacker regardless of whether Jaylon returns to form or not. Plus Lee is long in the tooth.

Agreed... I really liked Zach Brown and bowman as potential pickups.

 

[Toruk_Makto]

I don't think Wentz is looking anything like an MVP.

Wentz is 4th in yards passing.
Wentz is 4th in QB rating.
Wentz is 3rd in QBR.
The Eagles have the best record in football.

I'm not sure you understand how MVP voting works if you don't think he looks the part through 8 weeks.

I have watched him play. He doesn't play like an MVP candidate.

 

[Toruk_Makto]

It is no surprise to anyone here that you can watch something and not understand what you're seeing.

 

[Gameover]

Cowboys will win the next 2, then lose to Philadelphia to finish with a 6-4 record after 10.

Philly media will wet the front side of their briefs, Zoners will whine about all the suffering they've had to endure the past 24 years(yes, someone on this board said the Cowboys have been terrible the past 24 years)

Cowboys will go 5-1 the rest of the way, and they will make a run to the SB... which they will win!

Which will be a must win, because when fella down in Houston figures this thing out(next season), it's all over for everybody else! He looks like the first QB that can single handily will a team to a championship

I've seen Risen say that about Wentz in the past, he picked the wrong guy to say that about!

One thing that could prevent a Cowboys SB appearance: Dak game hasn't traveled since Pittsburgh

Beasley is barely getting touches, so Jeffrey’s wouldn’t get squat in this offense. Our receivers are fine, it’s the play calling. Garrett/Linehan have chosen to play ball control offense which means run, run and pass on obvious downs.
