Who is our dline coach? Maybe he needs inspecting. Just like Solari does on the offensive side. Funny how Marc Columbo came in season and changed our blocking scheme back to the way it was before the ex Bengals oline coach took over and our scheme on offence started to bear fruit at that point with the same guys.

We are now up to 13 games without a sack from our starting 3 tech.

When will he get off the snide and actually get to the QB like his position needs to?

Will it be one of these last two regular season games? The playoffs? Next season, when he is inexplicably still the starter?

Let's see who can guess the correct week. I have week 2 of 2024. Now you go.
NFC championship game ;)

You are correct. I forgot about Hatcher in 2013. He had 11 sacks. Ratliff left the Cowboys after 2012. Hatcher left the following year. Talk about a contract year. Hatcher never had more than 4 sacks for Dallas until 2013. He had 5.5 for Washington in 2014.. Glover left after 2005.
It was the system - after Ratliff left, Hatcher took over - and in Marinade's system, he only had one gap responsibility, his job was to just shoot that gap.

Well they definitely don’t make an impact in Dallas anymore.

But I’m old enough to remember Leon Lett, Hennings, J. Johnson, Casillas, and of course Randy White, Dutton…and someone named Bob Lilly.

Just amazes me how much the Cowboys have ignored and de-prioritized DT over the last 20 years
You missed Jethro Pugh!

As is always the case, this board has ridiculous, uncontextualized and impossible expectations for DTs. He is one of the best pass rushing DTs in the league, just like Malik Collins was. The best DTs win their rush rep 20% of the time - that's an 80% fail rate, for those counting at home.

Sacks are a quarterback stat, he'll start generating them when they start playing teams that take a lot of sacks or when they get an early lead and can actually rush.

Currently second in PRWR, doubled 59% of the time.

He is another person that is pushed around at DT. That's the difference between us and teams like the Ravens. He would be a DE on their defense. But noooo Dan Quinn loves an undersized defense. Osa stats look like someone who is playing nose tackle not 3 tech.
Madabuike is the Ravens best DT...

He plays DE in the ravens system (of course he moves to DT in pass rush situations I believe). Which I believe Osa would be a beast in that system. Osa is quick. I believe the ravens plays 3-4 defense. And they play a lot of zone with very well disguised blitzes.

So on the plays that matter he's a DT? That seems pretty relevant in a conversation about passrushing.

The Ravens, like every team, are predominantly in nickel. The difference is that Roquan, Queen and Hamilton are 10x the players that Bell, Clark and Kearse are.
