Peters needs to be on the sideline motivating and coaching the young OL out there starting.

No clue why they have Peters at LT.

Smith was doing great at LT and is far more athletic than Peters.

Because this team likes to find creative ways to mess things up. If the LT position was not broken why fix it with a worse option?

You guys are reading way too much into one random picture at practice. OL coaches will rotate their top 7 or 8 OL throughout practice with the first team at positions they may play during a game.

I always had a rotation going with my top 7 or 8 guys, and then the 2nd team would go in en masse for a few plays at the end of offensive practice.
Ding ding ding!!!

To me, this current line configuration is not very good. It could be that they believe it is a matter of them working together. I think otherwise. Of course we do not know the full details of Biadasz's and Farniok's injuries or their current health.

I hope they can get Tyler Smith back out to LT and McGovern back at LG. That will make things a bit better, but I will repeat myself that Tyron Smith is not the run blocker that Steele was and that is a problem too.
Tyron Smith is done.

I was scrolling through the pictures on Cowboys app of todays practice. They got Peters, Smith, can’t tell who’s the center, & well Martin & Smith.
Once again Smith is dealing with a knee issue after being out for almost a full season. Time to cut bait and run after Monday's loss.

Well Smith was in there with starters. Cmon already with the negativity calling Monday a loss. We gotta be better! Go Cowboys!!!!

I'm feeling this. Martin has been resistant to playing T but he's was great last season there in limited work. He can play anywhere at a high level.
I like Peters on the field over McGovern by a wide margin.
Zack is a stud and would look good at RT, but I'd rather go with the line as designed in camp and preseason, then let Peters and Ball split time at RT for any rest Peters needs.

I would just love to see the Cowboys go "old school" on the Bucs defense, just one drive, at least.

Make Zeke the fullback and line Pollard up behind Zeke in the I-formation. Hand the ball to Pollard just as Zeke is crashing into the right side of the line behind Martin and Tyron Smith.

I mean, you got two 1st team All Pros lining up next to each other on the offensive line. You have your powerback that is also excellent at blocking. You have one of the most dynamic runners in 2023, someone who has averaged well over five yards a carry all season long.

Do this all game long and Dak will only have to throw the ball ten times max, The only thing Brady will be seen doing on national TV is sitting on the sidelines looking impatient and depressed
