Twitter: Quinn saw improvement in defense against Titans

[Loso86]

Yes, me too. Wright looked okay against the Titans but look who the QB was. What happens when he faces Brady? Wright's problem is coming out of breaks he is slow as molasses. Brady will throw quick passes to spots anticipating the receivers coming out of their breaks. That is the worst possible matchup for Wright.

But I am also worried about Diggs. He has been pretty mediocre the last couple of weeks. He needs to pick it up too.

The Cowboys defensive line needs to get their hands up if they can't get to Brady and make him throw over or around them. Maybe they can knock a few passes down.

I'm with you, not to worried about Diggs I think he's going to come up big in the playoffs. But we MUST do something with that CB2 side

I agree I think we will be much better with LVE and Hankins back. Unfortunately that CB2 spot still makes me NERVOUS

I'll roll with Bland.

But the 3rd CB is where I get scared. Wright?

One of their missed focus points had to be containment. Those were some pretty good bootlegs from the Titans in that game. I mean, a mobile quarterback that hasn't been with the team very long. What do you think that game plan was... to move them around.

They've been mostly playing Bland in the slot though

 

[Outlaw Heroes]

I think if I squint really hard I can see what Quinn sees.

Nope. Just a focus error.

Most defenses probably look better playing against teams without their starting QB, RB and some starting linemen.

I know I am going to get some flack for this, but I would consider playing Joseph and letting him cover Godwin. I know, he is good for a bonehead play or two, but overall, I think he can stick to Godwin enough to help the Cowboys outscore them. I don't hate Wright but I am afraid he can be exploited every time the other teams needs a 1st down.

 

[EST_1986]

going against 2nd and 8th teamers are a good way to improve

 

[Mr_437]

That's good. It means the young players know what their doing and where they suppose to be. Also, a big issue is missed tackles when your run defense is poor, so that's what you want to see this time of year.

The Commodes and Turd (the mascot) are going run, run, run so they're an excellent opponent for the defense to get prepped for the Bucs with Fournette n White.

Shut the front Door. You were playing the Titans Pre-season team. Playing against a QB that had 8 days with the team. That is the Country Club mentality that Jimmy Johnson was talking about.

That is why Quinn gave up the biggest lead in Super Bowl history and lost as a HC.

fluff piece. Henry would have run for 200 yards.

This

 

[DeaconMoss]

Yep. Same here. If we don't get our pass rush back Brady/Rodgers will pick on whoever is playing in that spot.

Evans, Godwin, Lazard or Watson vs Wright? That sounds like a problem to me.

A bonehead play or two is a TD or TWO. You good with that?

Henry would have probably done better than Haskins did, but we did a pretty good job playing the run so we don't know how much better. It would have hurt him (just like it did his backup) that we weren't too concerned about their quarterback.

I'll roll with Bland.

Out of our choices (Joseph, Wright, Alexander, Mullen and Sheffield), they appear to think Wright is the best option for now when we go to three corners.

I was hoping if we were eliminated from the NFC East title race, that we'd be able to sit Diggs and Bland and give the others a chance to sort out who should be the third corner. That's not going to happen now.

CB3 bro, Bland has CB2 locked

Umm, he couldn't stick with lesser talented and unknown guys, why would you think he could hang with Godwin bro?

Bland has been in the slot bro that's not CB2. And either way the 3rd corner back will just get picked on doesn't matter
