Dallas should just move around the OL.

Get Green or Bell out of space, slip Green into Guard, and make Zack Martin the LEft Tackle

That's the move.

We won't do it because they are stubborn but that's the move to make.

It's not really wise to shuffle an o-line too much. That unit takes a while to get a feel together with everyone in the same roles. Switch those roles and the process starts over and can cause more harm than good.

Yet I see make shift Olines all the time perform better then what we did a week ago.

We let a average NFL player come 1 sack shy of the NFL record for sacks in a game.

We can worry about their feel together over the long haul but right now we need to put a hat on a hat and get guys blocked.


Martin knows how to play tackle.. Green or Looney can play guard. Make the switch until Tyron gets back.

I wouldn't say 'all the time' as if is the norm. It's not. I also wouldn't make drastic changes based off of just one game...despite how horrific it was. If it becomes a longer term trend, then the argument to make drastic moves becomes stronger.

If I could trust our staff to make the changes needed and give our LT the proper help he needs then i'd be fine just putting Bell our Green out there.

I don't trust these coaches.

So I would rather be proactive and place the guy out there that gives us the best chance to win his 1 on 1 then rely on our terrible coaching staff to scheme up a simple edge block with the TE or RB.

I am the eternal optimist and I can't remember being this disinterested in an upcoming Boys Eagles prime time matchup being above .500. What a horrible turn of events over the last couple of weeks.

Playing a backup tackle doesn't have to kill the team, but the Cowboys have shown no ability to adjust to player losses. It will always hurt you SOME, but in the Garrett regime it always results in DISASTER and no good team will do that.
