Twitter: Snap counts vs Jets

[XXLMike]

Serious question - do your posts truly represent what you think, or are you simply trying to shock with hot takes?

Answer my question first is Michael Gallup, a professional number 2 wide receiver or even a number three?

 

[XXLMike]

Cooks has been one of the more consistent receivers in the league for the last few years. He missed yesterday with a sprained knee. It’s way too early to declare much of anything about this crew besides the continuing growth of Cedee Lamb into a star.

I want to believe that, and I’m going to give him every single chance, but he’s been on a number of teams in that time span as well.

I would say he’s an avg. #3. Your turn.

Brandin Cooks has been in the league the same number of years as Odell Beckham Jr, yet has more receptions and yards in his career than OBJ.

Why has he been on several teams? I think it’s because he’s in reality a great #2 receiver and not a #1 which means he’s really good but not enough to pay at the top of the market. Also he’s now 30.

But Brandin Cooks is an excellent balance for Cedee Lamb. He gets open, runs good routes and is a good teammate.
And Gallup needs to play better but we’re just 2 games into a 17 game season.

Clark only getting 17 snaps is interesting to me.

When it became a passing game for the Jets, Bell made more sense than Clark. Simple as that.

You can really see Quinn's intent against these weaker opponents. Overwhelm them early with speed and pressure, get a lead, then play kill the quarterback late.

Did I hear Luepke name called yesterday for picking up a key block.

He did a good job IMO of lead blocking from FB.

Would like to see him get some carries/catches out of the lead fb position and some short yardage tries.

Here are the snap counts vs NYJ from yesterday’s game.
What stands out to me:

• The Cowboys ran a whopping 87 snaps yesterday to the Jets’ 47. That’s dominance.
• Jalen Tolbert had 59 snaps and 3 receptions yesterday. What a difference a year of development makes.
• LVE, Kearse, Gilmore and Diggs played every defensive snap.
• TJ Bass had 42 snaps; most were good. Quite the accomplishment for a rookie UFA.
• Rico Dawdle had 18 snaps and Deuce Vaughn 13. Both looked good in spots.

What jumps out to you?

What jumps out at me is the young guys getting reps. I think everyone agreed if we lost an offensive lineman we’d be screwed. Then Bass, an UDFA, steps in against 2 good defensive lines and we roll. That’s very exciting. Vaughn and Dowdle also get positive reps is great. What I’m excited about is with high end contracts coming up we need inexpensive contracts to balance it out and those inexpensive contracts are playing well so far. Bodes well for the future. And I’m not as scared if an offensive lineman gets hurt.

I could be wrong but I think he may have “it”..

Lol, you are standing out as a troll or just being ridiculous.

Pretty sure he’s a Concern Troll. Probably a Giants fan.

 

[Dallasfann]

Somebody had to step up. The other guys have been rather quiet lately.

I'm starting to think it is the other guy on his burner. No way MC isn't here telling us how bad the Cowboys are after his eagles won as well.

TJ Bass got 42 plays on the carpet and those at his current stage, are money in the bank for Dallas. His value expands up...

Clark only getting 17 snaps is interesting to me.

I liked the increased usage of Deuce. He made it clear that if he gets the ball in space, he can be a weapon.

The Jets abandoned the run way too soon...and it reflected.

 

[CWR]

What stands out to me is we are in dire need of a WR.

Cooks is meh - Gallup is cfl trash - Tolbert is barely a pro .

Your eye is off man. Cooks is a strong wr2 and his quickness helps open up plays for the others. Tolbert has improved a lot. Give him a chance 2 years in. Gallup needs to show something soon, but he did play a different game in the rain and then match up with Sauce.

You over simplified everything. Context matters.

 

[glimmerman]

Cooks played 1 game, Tolbert played 1 game, well was not involved in game 1.
Gallup was blanketed in game 2, and was not needed in the game plan as Ceedee took over that game for the WR's.

Try again. Can you find something good to post?

Wonder why they covered Gallup so much when Lamb is our #1..

The use of receivers this game were CD Lamb and double tight ends. Gallup will still be worked into flow of game with targets for SF and Philadelphia to have to deal with a fully used roster picture, for both the run and pass.

Maybe seen something on film that concerned them.

I dont think Sauce travels like some other shut down type cbs.

 

[Kwyn]

It’s not t

Damn man really?

Sauce Gardner and DJ Reed are top notch corners. Gallup and Tolbert were covered by these guys most of the game.

This team is playing like a legit top 2 team in the league. They have Arizona and New England coming up and should be sitting at 4-0. Let’s enjoy this

har far fetched.

WR was something many of us looked for in the draft with Gallup being unknown.

Let’s see if he can step up

 

[xwalker]

Mazi had 11 snaps. I did not really notice how he did though. Maybe because of the lack of snaps.
Deuce got 13. They are finding plays for him.

Mazi more snaps than Hankins...

You didn't learn anything after your Giants game thread...
