Really good perspective.
On this we wholeheartedly agree. The biggest question for me was how bad Thomas looked in his stint on the right side. I suppose we could chalk that up to just not being prepared. But he was thrust into playing when Guyton got hurt and arguably played better than Guyton had been. Frankly when they put him in for Steele it might have been a downgrade. Which is saying something.. Hopefully they used the bye week to solidify whatever their plan is.
They are finally moving in a direction thats been so obvious to everyone else for a long time. I have been saying this for 3 seasons now about TS. This guy just does not block anyone, ever. I have even made a few posts here that he should just donate his paycheck to charity. He is a total liability to the offense, so kudos to Schotty!!!!
I understand your frustration but this is an overstatement. He was well above average before injury. Did the quickest defenders win some? Yes. But there are only a handful of those guys in the league at any one time. He wasn't losing you games even against those guys.
You're surely on the right track. The Cowboys' FO is most likely to wait for the next draft to take their next choice(s) for the next in line to become Dallas Cowboys. Unfortunately, that's simply their routine way of adding talent to the roster. Spending huge amounts of $$$ for experienced players just isn't their preferred way to do business. That's why this team has spent 30 years minus playing in a Super Bowl. The Jones Family is content to bide their time and enjoy their wealth, awaiting the draft.
Disagree, he is improving. Maybe where you would want him timewise at his draft pedigree, but if you focus on the plater irrespective of draft status the improvement is about what I would expect. And the flashes show he can be worth the effort.
Jerry is running out of time.
Yep, I think he'd aware of fact that his age, alone, isn't working in his favor to resolve these current problems, especially with the defense. He's hesitating to decide what to do regarding his DC and the scheme that he's implanted. He's obviously reluctant to fire him in midseason. We'll soon see if this continues or if adjustments might be made to change things noticeably. We'll tight and hope for the best. It won't be shocking if it takes until the offseason to change, however. It's just a tragic mess.
Thomas probably should be at LT since he has performed well there.Nate Thomas stunk after replacing Terence Steele. Let's hope Cornelius performs much better. If not, guess which position the Cowboys will use one of those two 1st round picks on this next draft?
I thought the new Oline Coach was a lineman whisperer who can make the linemen better?
Pretty sure they know from practice what he is capable of.
