Flip that and then you'll be absolutely right.
If that is correct than it would hopefully mean that it was clear that Peters disqualified young TS.
Peters to do that, would take a lot of vet prowess, and that is an incredible achievement at Peters tenure to come in
and bounce TS inside, just from former reputation?
Is that the message we want to send to this young OL.
Peters most definitely will upgrade this OL immediately, and your opinion is just as valid as mine is, but Peters elevates this OL significantly wherever he lineups.
Wouldn't mind seeing him even getting some snaps at center as well... :D

The surprise will be to NOT play best pass blocking LT at LT.



Thank you for posting that, but I understand the technician already that Peters is.
Why do you feel so adamant about being correct, Im betting you will be proven wrong on that account, but I don't really care.
This OL is improving weekly.

The practical aspect of it is that the only interior OL that was active for the Bengals game was rookie UDFA and practice squad OLineman Lindstrom,

My guess is that Peters is active vs the Giants but does not start.

If McGovern is out again, they'll have Lindstrom active as the backup OC but either Waletzko or Ball will be inactive if Peters is active.

The only message should be to WIN.

Move around as less people as possible. If LG is our only transition spot, I’m all for it. Already shifted players in that position, least productive starter on the line right now, keeps it to only 1 player in transition so we can find some rhythm.

If the Cowboys plan to run the ball, which is what we all want, I think they're better off with Smith at LT.

Guess we'll find out Monday night.

You've got it upside down.

If Cowboys plan to win by dominating on the ground then the best plan is Tyler next to Biadasz.

Peters is no slouch at run blocking either but Tyler was elite at this in college.

And I'd rather Tyler be the pulling guard instead of a 40 year old.

I don’t think Peters was anything more than insurance and a backup plan if Tyler couldn’t handle it. When Connor McGovern is healthy, he’ll replace Peters. Good to have a vet like that helping coach our young starters.

McGovern better than Peters now.

CZ is a crazy place.

I’m realistic. Dude is 40. And McGovern beat Tyler for the starting LG spot so coaches obviously see something they like this year.

McGovern beating Tyler at LG is also laughable.

If we play Peters at LG, there's a chance he strengthens both center and left tackle because there's very few things defenses can throw at him that he has not seen and he plays with a lot of power.

But the Hall of Fame OL coaches that inhabit the Zone here all say move the thriving player back to the position he was just learning instead of keeping him at the spot he knows and has had success at.

Peters in padded practice confirms this.

Absolutely it is. The guy is a left tackle. And a damn good one. A Hall of Famer at that position. And someone with a history of struggling elsewhere. An NFL organization should know that and not repeat the mistakes others have already made.

Would be surprised if we move our future LT out of position for a 40 year old Peters.
Peters knows his role and will immediately upgrade the LG position.
The entire left side will be improved regardless.

Farniok in the Bengals game was better than McGovern in his 4 starts last season.
