Martin and Fredbeard on the screen pass

[Clove]

I'm sorry, I'm just in awe of Ezekiel Elliott. This guy is fassssssst. What I find interesting that his last name ends with Elliott. So now we have three historic runners with two "t"s in their name. Emmitt, Dorsett, Elliott. I'm sorry, carry on, great offensive line, and some of these guys are just flat out FAST TOO.

Thats intresting and not a coincidence because i dont believe in them.

How bout Zeke's speed? Ryan Shazier runs a 4.3 and couldn't chase down Zeke from behind.

I don't know if they can afford Leary at this point i think they're banking on Chaz and lael as cheap options for now while they work on zach martins deal

Good commentary. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Hopefully see more of Chaz to see how he would work out.

TWill did a decent job also without doing an illegal block the angle he had to pull off that block could have easily led to a block in the back

Not allowed to praise him around here

Yep and add to that powerful. Hard to find the rare combination of both power and speed and the kid really knows how to pick up blitzers with some great blocks.

Truly a thing of beauty. We've found the perfect storm of players and circumstance!

On a side note: That's a pretty smooth celebration dance by Zeke. I was too busy celebrating to pay attention when it happened live

Big Ben and Todd Haley (offensive coordinator) enjoying Zeke's screen pass. If looks could kill.

This has got to be my favorite photo of the year so far. Todd Haley death stare.

My impression of Zeke:

 

[Macnalty]

This has got to be my favorite photo of the year so far. Todd Haley death stare.

I agree that is what caught my eye when I was watching the video.

Somebody wrote in another thread that we were illegally downfield on that play but we were not at all. When the ball left Dak's hand we were completely legal

They can't comprehend the athleticism of our elephants

 

[erod]

When you break it down player for player, that is the most perfectly executed screen pass I've ever seen in my life.

 

[ConstantReboot]

That screen was a thing of beauty. I can't stop watching it over and over.

The level of unpredictability of this years Cowboys is amazing. Linehan is an unsung hero on how he's running this offense.

I would have never thought they would run that screen in that situation. It took me by complete surprise. Now they need to run it more often.

That was me. And I found the picture and the picture was zoomed in and didn't show Prescott or where the ball was. So it looked like he was downfield illegally. But then someone posted the full picture from when Prescott released the ball and Leary was at the 19. So I was wrong.

That play was like a soccer offsides penalty - it was fast moving and tough to call.

 

[Silver Surfer]

In just a cursory look at the last two games, I've noticed Frederick snap and pull to his left like a sweep to take out a CB, and then throw a SS into a coach 30 yards down field last Sunday. Linehan and Fredbeard seem to enjoy sticking a finger in the eye of all the scouts and pundits who said he's too slow to be effective at this level.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Zach Martin murdered someone. Goodness......

How bout Zeke's speed? Ryan Shazier runs a 4.3 and couldn't chase down Zeke from behind.

Shakier is a 4.3 guy? Goodness. I remember when the Cowboys were interested.........some nice speed there.

 

[Bullflop]

That screen play was a thing of beauty -- everyone did their part to make it work. The screen is back to stay for the Cowboys.

As a side note, I just hope Jerry does all in his power to retain Linehan and prevent another team from pilfering him as their OC. Better get your wallet ready, Jerry. They'll be calling him for sure.
