Pretty easy thread. The poll will allow you to vote for more than one player. If you were in Jerry and Bill's position, who would you replace? I even included some of the biggest backups on the team right now and the fullback and offensive line coach. Except for the kicker, I think this was the most obvious weakness on our team this year. We went from a high-powered offense to the Campo era offense. This team can't block worth a damn, Bledsoe is getting killed, Julius isn't running, who do you think is the most to blame?
LT Flozell Adams
Folks dogged him for his technique and relaxed attitude, but it sure looks like we missed him.
LT/RT Torrin Tucker
Had some admirable games as the starter but probably a better backup.
LG Larry Allen
He's getting up there in age, so you can't take a chance with a lot of vets surrounding him, but he might have been the best lineman on this team this year.
C Al Johnson
Al gets dogged a lot on the forums but of all the young guys playing for the team, he seemed to have the least amount of problems.
C/G Andre Gurode
Looks like the Gurode years are over if he doesn't re-sign for cheap.
RG Marco Rivera
Some think he might go down as the worst free-agent signing in the Parcells era.
LT/RT Rob Petitti
Struggled mightily his rookie year, probably going to the bench if he doesn't show some dramatic improvement.
FB Lousaka Polite
Cowboys still have yet to see a true blocking fullback worth a damn since Moose. One magic year with our hybrid FB Richie Anderson was the only exception.
Offensive Line Coach Tony Sparano
He looked good as the tight ends coach in Parcells first two years but the guy who is labeled as the offensive line coach and running game coordinator doesn't seem to be his doing job this year. (BTW, if you fire him you also probably lose your next best NFL Films candid camera coach after Parcells and Zimmer.
)
Bledsoe/Julius/Witten (i.e. problems are from holding ball too long, poor running, etc.)
Bledsoe holds on to the ball too long, Julius looked like he lost a step, Jason Witten is a better receiver than blocker, vote for this if you think all these factors contribute just as much as a weak spot on the line.
