Our Offensive line a couple of weeks ago:
LT 73 Smith, Tyler
LG 66 McGovern, Connor
C 66 Biadasz, Tyler
RG 70 MARTIN, ZACK
RT 77 SMITH, TYRON

So, Biadasz goes down with a high ankle sprain. Here is the Cowboys new shuffled offensive line:

LT 71 PETERS, JASON
LG 73 Smith, Tyler
C 66 McGovern, Connor
RG 70 MARTIN, ZACK
RT 77 SMITH, TYRON

The Center goes down, and 3 out of 5 of the offensive line positions have new starters. The entire cohesion of the line was destroyed by this brilliant move.

Are none of the backups on the roster capable of snapping the football at all? Rearranging the left side of the line has thrown the entire offense off in my opinion.
The run game was squat yesterday and Dak is not a good enough QB to handle the extra pressure.


An old car analogy:
The alternator belt broke. No problem, the AC belt is close enough, move to the alternator. But dang it is too hot out. I think the power steering belt will work, who needs a power steering anyway, move it to the AC. Ten miles down the road all the belts are snapped. Should have had spare belts or gone to the parts store for a new alternator belt.

The run game was definitely broken, but I’m more worried about the passing game. There are less excuses there

I had a bad feeling about this game just based on how it started. Punter mishandling the snap, Turpin dropping the fair catch, Dak pick 6 the OL could not open running lanes.
