PFF offensive positional rankings

[KJJ]

Everyone who left we replaced with a downgrade. No surprise the Cowboys have a bad team.

 

[StarOfGlory]

CeeDee, ranked 3rd in yardage and 7th in receptions is 28th ranked?

Under what criteria?

PFF can hit the road with that nonsense!

Pretty sure his usage rate is affecting the rating. Our lack of complimentary weapons forces Dak to toss him the ball all game.

 

[StarOfGlory]

OH HO, I thought Caleb was the glory boy just bustin' up the NFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He had a bad start to his year.

Jerry thought Cowboys fans would not notice.

Half of them don't, and only blame Dak.

It’s the fans that don’t notice and put it entirely on Dak. They’re stupid enough to think the Cowboys would have a contending team with another QB.

 

[bottleKids]

They sure as hell can't use QBR at this point either.

look at those that refuse to blame Dak at all....

They lost their top four DE's after 5 games. they were being counted on to provide an elite pass rush while our two All Pro CB's, although starting, could continue to heal and regain confidence in their physical abilities. They both had the type of injuries that take longer than a season to fully recover.

So now we have no pass rush, the QB has all day, so our CB's get hammered....and re-injured.

That's only the problems associated with pass defense. Add no run defense on the corners to an already weak run defense in the middle, and you have opponents strolling down the field drive after drive.

Of course, one way to combat this is an efficient clock-eating, slowed down, running game on offense to take time away from the opponent offense.

Oops!

You mentioned downgrade? I would call this a no-grade. Nothing.

So we figured that Pollard was better than Zeke and got rid of Zeke.

Then after the following season, we didn't want to pay Pollard and let him go.

Instead, the Cowboys upgraded the position by signing......Zeke?

But don't worry, the Cowboys invested heavily at the position by reinforcing it with......a 160 pound, 5 1/2 FT 6th round draft pick and a 4th year former rookie free agent who didn't have 100 carries before the season started?

No doubt Jerry envisioned them prancing, untouched through gaping holes, courtesy of the Cowboys O-line featuring.....two rookie starters?

Steele and Martin have played together for four years. They have played with Tyler Smith for two years. That's it. That is all the familiarity they have. They are not cohesive. They do not function as a unit in sync. Not yet.

It is difficult to perform well when placed under such unfavorable conditions. That is especially true when it is your own GM that contributed to those conditions.

And "offensive" they are...... nobody on offense is having a good year. But having the worst tackle duo in the NFL isn't helping. Tyron Smith who we let walk so he could sign a contract with the NYJ for peanuts is ranked 14th. Pollard is ranked 10th among rbs.

QB - Dak 27th
RB - Dowdle 23 rd
WR -CD 28th
WR - Tolbert 57th
TE - Ferguson 44th
C - Beebe 24th
G - T Smith 14th
G - Zach 34th
T - Guyton 64th
T - Steele 53 rd

60 Million for the 27th ranked QB ouch.

 

[JonesBoys]

I don't think we need to see any rankings to know this offense has sucked so far. I don't see any light at the end of the tunnel for this season to fix it.

 

[Chasing6]

60 Million for the 27th ranked QB ouch.

Dak is not being paid $60M this year.

 

[kskboys]

He had a bad start to his year.

Not what the media was proclaiming!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[kskboys]

Dak is not being paid $60M this year.

Cap hit this year is 43 mil. 2025, it's 89 mil. So, ostensibly, it's more than 60!!!

Cap hit is not what he is getting paid either. Never a players fault for a GM who wants to kick the can down the road.

 

[noshame]

This is on McCarthy

 

[PAPPYDOG]

Who would have though that 60 million was only going to be good enough to buy you a 27th ranking or that 33 million would only get you #28.


I understand why people are trashing the defense, but damn, the offense has sucked every bit as bad.

The Giants and Panthers coming up they will be great again!!!

 

[nate dizzle]

Every system I've seen so far has Dak around 24th, give or take a spot or 2. Like this one. Or Just plain old QBR.

Thread 'QB EPA week 8 for those that love stats' https://cowboyszone.com/threads/qb-epa-week-8-for-those-that-love-stats.529090/

But I'm sure they're all wrong. He's definitely a top 5 guy, otherwise why make him the highest paid qb in the league?

 

[DuncanIso]

The offense is atrocious. It’s the reason we can’t hang with the big boys. Our D would be much better with TD’s on the board….

Agree.

teams would have to throw on us.

And meanwhile it looks like Kellen Moore has gotten Hurts back on track.

Gonna be interesting when we face the eagles.
