Why not go deep on the Oline

Why don't we activate both Leary and Collins? Why not go with an overload of 6 offensive lineman on about 10-15 plays a game and run the ball down the opposing teams throat and get some nice playactions too? I remember we did this in 09 with Free and Columbo. If a team has a huge strength I say use it! Stack it up like the 49ers of 2012. Run the ******* ball down the other teams throat and hit them with some nice playactions.

I wouldn't mind it on some plays. What gives us an advantage with it is that Witten can be used equally as a blocker or as a receiver. So you have a six-man line with three receiving options; four if you count the RB.

I don't see Leary being active with Bernie
And Bernie is the backup center
I agree with X, we run better when we spread them out

I agree with @xwalker on this one. This current Cowboys team runs the ball better when we spread the defense out.

As good as our OL is (should be? used to be?), they are not road graders. That's why zone blocking is what we do best.

I just don't think it makes sense from a roster stand point. If Collins and Martin are the starters and you're not worried about dings on either of them it makes more sense to not have 2 interior linemen active and go longer somewhere else, like maybe an extra CB, LB, or DL. If one of the two starters is dinged then I can see activating an extra. Leary is better then Berny, but he can't play center.

Play Action to who? Thats the issue also.
