Well I've learned that this offensive line is a devastating run blocking line but a pretty horrible pass blocking line sooo....

Until Free is replaced with someone better, that's what we are going to get. They are going to have to give him help when passing.

This isnt a surprise. Green Bay raved about Dallas run game last year without Martin on the O Line. This O Lone needs to be leaned on.

We didn't run the ball when they put 7 or 8 in the box is the point, so yes it's a surprise.

They played it at the end but their defense by then was deflated. And when they put Griffith in the box I believe he came and tackled either Demarco or Dunbar in the backfield.
I was impressed by how the Cowboys were still effectively running the football even everyone knew they were running.

He tackled Dunbar....... Murray in the same drive was picking up first downs. They couldn't stop Randle or Murray all day even when they tried

They couldn't stop us at all. But at the same time......you just never know when you stack the box. It can be tricky. One hole and it could be off to the races. Single cover Dez or Terrance and it could be 7. But if they stop your run and you're consistently trying to get it going? It could spell trouble. But the offensive line...while it has been suspect in the passing game its been on point in the rushing game.

I agree with everything you said. What made RG3 look like a QB his rookie year was because Morris ran the ball so well, in turn gave 1 on 1 matchups and allowed RG3 to throw to open guy off playaction.

I'm cool with being a run team and throw off playaction and screens. Romo doesn't need to sling the ball 40 times a game. 75 percent run to 25 percent pass

Yes, certain regular regular posters are conspicuously absent. I guess they're over at extremeskins with their comrades.

Yep, I posted it in the positives thread. One of them posted a couple things and they are were almost positive....I think it hurt him too much that he stopped posting for the night.

Are you talking about the last play we had on offense?

Yeah, they are in a meeting to see how to high jack the positives from today...:)

I already know what some of the reason / excuses will be for the defense playing so well today.

yap, the drums are eerily quite
speaks volumes
