Nate Newton on KTBB, strongly recommend you listen to podcast

hmmmmmm i dont remember it as sloppy as it was last year as parcells teams were, best i remember you never saw the QB sacked like 17 times in arizona game, you never saw 2 guys get through the punt blocking team untouched to the punter and scoring the touchdown; remember parcells said we will be ready for the blitz, in fact parcells said you will beg for teams to blitz you

but wade said i dont feel that we have to pass protect in preparation like parcells did, something like that, and you saw the results last year

jobberone, was just a sloppy sloppy football team last year, more than i saw even with dave campos teams, just sloppy

that comes again, when you dont allow hitting in practice first 25 days and you give players extra days off, you just dont run a camp like that

and i honestly believe this too; when wade gave the cowboys the day off after arizona game, he gave it for another reason, wade was dead tired, and bushed, so wade took part of the day off too, you know if the team isnt there your not working with them as much

just think about that;

thats why i think jerry jones asked for a time clock in the dan reeves contract, he saw what wade was doing, taking time off too

I find it difficult to debate against such logic. You're right.

Here's Big Nate talking about the Cowboys handling of the Offensive Line over the last few seasons...

Nate talks with David Smoak

If Andy Reid and his staff are so great at finding offensive line talent then how come they drafted Maz Jean-Gilles and Winston Justice in recent years and neither are starting for them?

Sometimes you find a great player and then sometimes the player doesn't pan out.

But acting like the Eagles have it all figured out is just Nate hating on the Cowboys.

The Eagles have been very good about drafting linemen. Just because every single pick didn't workout doesn't mean they are just as ****ty as the Cowboys at drafting offensive linemen.

Yep. And dollars to donuts their backups are better than ours.

 

[CowboyMike]

What got me was Smoaky asking Nate "How good of a pick up was Jason Peters for the Eagles regardless of the draft picks they gave up?"

Sheesh. How many times did you hear someone say, "How good of a pick up was Roy Williams for the Cowboys regardless of the draft picks they gave up?" Try never.

It isn't about the Eagles finding talent, it is about them being better coached. They also get the ball out quickly in the West-Coast offense as well. We have talent on our line, we just haven't used them properly for years now. This line, being so huge, doesn't need to be in pass protection all the time. Jason Garrett needs to let Hudson Houck actually utilize his personnell properly, and if Garrett can't devise a scheme that utilizes that talent, Red-Head has got to go.

good comment Khiladi, it does boil down to coaches coaching the players,
we know they did it in 2007; and im thinking more and more it was sparano instead of jason garrett;

just like i mentioned coaching, when wade phillips says i dont trust felix on kickoffs, but when forced to play felix, he does great, then wade says i dont trust choice in the running game, but when forced to play tashard, we saw the results, to me, that goes back to the head coach and the offensive coordinator;

but when you give days off to the players, you sure cant teach them can you?

wade wanted this head coaching job, he accepted whatever he and jerry jones agreed to, thats on wade; and wade gets paid pretty darn good money to be the head coach, like alittle over 3 million dollars a year; time for him to do something instead of saying were a family and im not going to overwork you, to me therein is part of the problem, the players wants you to treat them like professionals, but they dont want to work, well the kids glove treatment with them didnt work last year, now its time to work them, and you yourself wade and jason garrett needs to work too, even harder;
