We need to consider benching several players going forward and play the best player

Cooks needs to be benched for Tolbert at WR.

This game tells me the rookie LT should be benched (for now).

Tyler Smith is a natural left tackle and a beast!

I knew we didn’t need to draft a left tackle. We should drafted a wide receiver. The combo of Smith and Bass on the left side is great.

We also had our best run game as a result.

Probably should bench D Law and maybe consider trading Micah (give him this season to improve). Our run defense looked good.

Go Cowboys!
The D-Line last night, looked fresh and young! They got after it in a big way and didn't let up until the game was over. It appears that going forward changes need to happen if the Boys want to be competitive. What you saw last night was a good reason to eliminate ALL PRO status from the NFL. It seems that if a player comes into his own one year and is recognized for it then that player ends up making ALL PRO status the rest of his career even when he doesn't deserve it. D-Law is a great example of getting credit when it's not deserving and going forward after this game maybe it's time to play the young and hungry guys over D-Law.

Cooks is on IR. The rest of your post is classic knee jerk reaction which is common for casual fans.

The bottom line.....we found some defensive guys tonight. Easily the best defensive of the year so far
Remember when people thought the D was going to be good after week 1 because we beat the Browns?…Well stopping the Steelers in bad weather conditions isn’t far off

Well Zeke did get 4 or 5 critical 1st downs. So there goes your theory on that.
Jazz, I’m sorry but if you think Zeke did anything last night beyond what pretty much any remotely qualified NFL back can do, I don’t know what to tell you.

He gets less than what the blocking gives him nearly every single time.

6 carries for 17 yards - 2.8 YPC

Yeah, he’s basically a stationary object by the standards of professional football.

I love Zeke for all of the special seasons he gave us here, but he’s hardly even an NFL player anymore.

Dont about benching Cooks. But definitely give Tolbert more reps.

Cooks is out anyway so no reason to bench him lol
Guyton isn’t gonna be benched until anither tackle is healthy.
