Oline has allowed 6 sacks so far in practice today

[SilverStarCowboy]

I'm very sorry for that post. Please Mod remove it I forgot the rules. Again, sorry.

Naa, don't be sorry, I liked your post. Don't let anyone take any word in the English language from you, that would be a crime against Freedom. You wouldn't try to take anything from them.


This problem is old and the signing last year didn't come close to fixing the problem. Everyone knows the Dallas Oline is/was the weakest link.

A grandma on crutches comes down from the stands and beats Darrion Weems for a sack. Weems' struggles explain why out-of-shape Demetress Bell is still here.

Was that a real post from MacMahon?

LOL. No, I was just teasing how bad our OL seems in pre season.

Maybe the second and third team offensive lines, but the first team OL has done well by many accounts.

I've got good vibes about seeing an improvement in consistent QB pressure this year, but clearly the depth on the oline is razor thin.

More worrisome is Tyron. We need him to make that jump. Say what you will about him going up against Ware but there are other pretty great pass rushers in the league, and if they dominate him like Ware is, it'll be a very long (or very short) season for Romo.

Columbo is on the radio saying we need to sign Waters. Said he's a nasty player. We need to sign him. Bernadeau/Livings are both BUMS, BUMS, BUMS. I'm not trying to see that silly experiment again.

I thought Waters retired?

Basically he did.

He last played two seasons ago.

He was under contract with the Pats last season but never showed up for camp. They put him on some kind of "Did not show up for camp" list.

Well, to be honest, I have not been keeping up with the Waters thing. Is his asking price to much? Does he even want to come back to the NFL? Are there any reports out there that the Cowboys have even been in contact with him or his agent?

If this is the case they need to sign Brandon Moore and Winston Justice just to patch up the line for this season, and then next season they need to address this for the long term..... These reports are very discouraging

I wouldn't get too excited/upset over one day's practice.

When you combine it with the train wreck for the last couple of years, it puts it into perspective. This is very concerning to me, especially Tyron Smith, a top 10 pick.

"The offensive line is fine, nothing to worry about."

"It's just one practice in training camp. the sky isn't falling guys"

"We are just fine on the OL, just need to get some guys healthy"

Can I steal that as my avatar?

What about the reports of the offense gouging the defense with the running game?

For most of camp Tryon has performed well. I would spend some time re-reading the previous reports and rely less on the events of one afternoon.

Even with a healthy Ratliff and Spencer, our run d I'm guessing will be middle of the pack. Everyone knows that was a big concern this offseason, stopping the run, with a small DL.

The point I was making is that you aren't going to have a "stalemate" practice after practice. It doesn't work like that. At points the defensive line is going to dominate and at points the offensive line is. And to over-react based on a single day's report... Well.

I said if this is the case.... I've read conflicting reports so I obviously don't know which is true, but based on what I've seen in the Dolphins I guess I'm not too panicked
