Put Steele Back at RT and Nsekhe in at LT if No TSmith

[conner01]

Pickup up twists and stunts, identifying blitzes; unspoken collaboration. It has nothing to do with crowd noise. It's about knowing your teammates and coordinating adjustments on the fly.

That’s another reason I wanted Collins at LT because that leaves the rest of the oline in place

This reminded me of the Doug free Marc Colombo situation in the playoff loss to the Vikings years ago. By moving Steele to LT you create 2 problems where you only had 1

 

[JD_KaPow]

He played left tackle in college, he played left guard in the pros, he already stated last week his NATURAL position is on the left side.....How would these coaches even know since he's only played one game under them prior to Yesterday

Clearly you know better than his coaches. I defer to your authority.

 

[Floatyworm]

The 2nd best LT on the team is Martin...you move Martin...insert McGovern. How stupid do you got to be to try last Sundays lineup again?

 

[terra]

Steele completely sucked at LT and thus there are only two real alternatives. Collins is the logical choice. For those that want Martin as the saying goes you weaken one position immensely if you do that.

 

[TequilaCowboy]

Lemmee see, move Martin to LT, CWill to C, McGovern to RG, Collins to LG, Steele stays at RT, .....checkmate. Dammm all these moves just to cover up TSmith's absence. Do we still keep Dak at QB or bring Rush in just in case all hell breaks loose?

It was a better performing group.

The OL was awful yesterday, probably dealing with communication issues, poor technique and breakdowns with line adjustments.

Rather have 71 at LT

I really hope we address T in the draft. Both RT and LT. We can't count on Tyron due to injuries and we can't count on Collins due to immaturity and dedication. Time to retool both positions. Or at least get better backups than Ty N.

I'm really disappointed in Collins after 2020 and so far in 2021. Ridiculous.

And bring back the HULK package while they are at it.

I think that's the best solution too. If La'el is committed, he's the best talent, but after listening to Nate Newton go off on Collins, I don't know if LC will ever get it.

 

[CT Dal Fan]

I agree 100 percent. Nsekhe may have some lapses but he has at least played and started at left tackle in the NFL before.

And he would probably have to try to be worse than Steele was against Denver. Hate to pile on Steele for one bad game but the guy belongs on the right side.

 

[buybuydandavis]

I was thinking that too. Steele at right tackle is the best performing of Collins at right tackle and Nsehke at left. Nsehke was better at left tackle than steele.
It's a tough situation. I think moving steel to the left was a sign that they really want Collins back at RT.

If I’m not mistaken Nsehke started in Buffalo which lately has been successful . The guys not a bum I say yes put him on the left side and ether Steele or Collins on the right. Philbin looks at film he can see who’s grading out better between 78 & 71.

 

[willia451]

This.

I get such a chuckle out of the folks here. They always think there is a magic fix for everything.

Absolutely agree.

 

[Gaede]

I really hope they go back to Steele at RT. Why make two spots worse by moving him? I think they were trying to quietly move him back to swing tackle without overtly benching him. Which is stupid, cause he looked great at RT and our line was kicking *** every week.

 

[starfan1]

Tyron is a mountain of a man but this an annual event time to go shopping

 

[Creeper]

I have given this a little more thought and I can see both arguments. Steele was not good at LT, but it was his first game playing there. Maybe he learned something from that game and will be better next week. The Falcons have only 11 sacks this season. They are near the bottom of the league. Maybe this is the game for Steele to find himself at LT.

On the other hand, Maybe it made more sense for the Cowboys to stick with their plan. Steele is the RT and Nsekhe is the backup LT. The question is who are the 5 best? Maybe Nsekhe, Collins, Biadasz, Martin and Steele are the 5 best. And when Tryon comes back, He simply plugs in at LT.

At the same time, this team was 6-1 with Tyron, Williams, Biadasz, Martin and Steele.

 

[DallasDW00ds0n]

I agree unless LC looks really good in practice. He’s a big liability right now

 

[nightrain]

I fear that the Cowboys (Jerry) are pushing too hard to get Collins back on the field. He is not the player we saw before 2020. Steele is solid at RT, but way out of his comfort and ability zone at LT.
