Tyron Smith had a bad performance last week

[Hawkeye19]

Last week was a bad performance. Not just the penalties. He whiffed on some blocks and looked to be going through the motions a bit

He is an all pro— and I have to believe that last week was due to rust and getting back into game shape.

We need him to dominate on Sun night. Dak absolutely falls apart when he starts getting hit— so with better protection— I think we see a better offensive output.

There's no telling what can happen if you give Deonte Thompson and Blake Jarwin an extra second or two.

My bet is they would be 60 yards down field by then.....and we both know Dak couldn't reach them and Connor couldn't hold up for that long.

The JG offense in a nutshell.

If Tyron goes down we score 0

And nutshells are easily cracked.

Had two penalties week 1 last year. These guys don't play enough. Having said that thought the block int he back was weak.

Tyron has had a bad 3 years in a row. Not really sure how this guy has made the last 2 pro bowls.

lol

There is no LB in the NFL that can hang with Jarwin for 5 seconds.

Jar-wins every matchup!

Name recognition, mainly.

 

[Aviano90]

Yes, he had a bad game. Don’t make excuses for it, just improve upon it. The same mentality should be had for every Cowboy player.

 

[Bob-Lillys-War]

I wouldn't call it 'bad' per se ...

There are some pretty nasty adjectives out there ....

 

[Techsass]

Wonder if Callahan is still ticked that JG/JJ wouldn't promote him. Doesn't look like Washington has any plans for him becoming OC. They did give him an honorary Assistant Head Coach title, but I think the Cowboys offered something similar.

 

[noshame]

I fear the back injury has made him average. Time will tell.

 

[DFWJC]

It was one of his worst 1st half of a game in years
He settled down though

It was, but the alternative was a 5-10 yard loss so the penalty may have actually been the better play. I think I would rather have 1st and 20 than 2nd and 15 or more.

Really weak. We see the opposition push from that angle often with no call.

Bet we see one Sunday.

 

[links18]

He's has a few of those lately.

Dak is missing the days of simply getting the ball to Witten in space and just letting him “create.”

 

[Blackrain]

Tyron just didn't block anybody in the 1st half . He looked less than average but to his credit picked it up in the second half . These guys should have played together in preseason rather than use the 1st game like preseason should have been used .

Really not rocket science the D got more reps together and looked far more prepared . Offense didn't play together at game speed and looked like it .
