Yeah Lawrence had a nice TFL in the 3rd (I believe). Hope he plays more but looks like he has having trouble detaching from blockers during pass rush opportunities. Still like his raw talent and hope it is more speed/strength of the game that he is adjusting to.

The three plays I saw were the really good TFL where he got off the tackle, a screen play that he read and broke up, and the pressure on Eli when OB had gotten open deep on Scandrick but because of the pressure he couldn't get the ball to him. The athletic play was a running play up the middle where he came down the line and redirected very quickly and extended to catch the running back from behind.

Had a few in me at the time, thanks for the detail!

wonder if Dallas was saving Randle? GUy didn't sniff the field at all after what jerry said, I figured he'd get 5-6snaps at least

Why would a team, struggling to find pass rushers, so easily decide to get rid of the pass rushers (or rusher....) they have? Melton only plays 30 snaps because he's coming off injury and he still has more sacks than anyone else. Next year, when he's two years removed from the surgery, he likely will play 45+, maybe 55+.

Randle injured his ankle on Special Teams at some point in the game.

Dunbar only had 2 snaps on offense and 1 was a 26 yard gain.

I don't think it would be an easy decision, but at 9M per season you have options to look at other free agents.
