just saw claiborne is ranked 99 out of 101 corners according to PFF......yikes....guy is a MAJOR bust

99 out of 101? Well, let's take solace that he's not the ABSOLUTE worst.

If Alan ball ranks higher he should quit

So lets see, my eyes told me Leary had a bad game and PFF agrees. Check. My eyes told me that the guys we picked off the street for the D Line are turning back into guys off the street. Check. Carter and Mo couldnt cover me. Check. Guess that about covers it.

Leary did NOT have a bad game according to PFF, and neither did most of the DLinemen sans one. Learn the methodology before discussing it.

Well, yea. The problem is, people thought we were the best defense in the league after last week, and now they think we're the worst defense. Our season isn't doomed because we stunk it up this week, the same way we weren't Super Bowl-bound because we stomped the Rams.

very good post

According to @PFF, Orlando Scandrick has allowed only 5.8 yards per reception in his coverage area. That's tops in the NFL.
When QBs throw into Brandon Carr's coverage area, their QB rating is 62.5, according to @PFF. That's 17th-best in the NFL. #Cowboys

Those numbers are kick in the gut.

For years, according to those in the know, the Cowboys problems have stemmed primarily from weak safety play (hence the atrocious pass efficiency rating for the defense) and poor offensive line play (hence the mediocre scoring numbers). Yet, for this game, safety play and offensive line play were, at worst, decent, and, at best, pretty good, and the team suffered through a historical bad pass defense performance and only scored 14 offensive points.

I don't get it.
