Zach Ertz has to be stopped? Eagles suck, Dallas needs to go medieval

[Blackthorn]

Zach Ertz had a heck of a game against Dallas with 14 REC, 145 YDS, 2 TD. Dallas is in a must win situation against the filthy Eagles. Should Dallas put a man on Ertz on every play? I thought Dallas could switch between Wilson, Lewis and Heath and always play him with press-man. Would you line up Byron Jones against him? He can't have a free release. What do you guys think?

The Hot-Boys need to go medieval on Wentz. I want to see him face down on the turf on every play.

The Eagles fan base suck, I want Dallas to finish the dagger on their pathetic season. It will be great for the Boys to knock them out of the playoffs.

It's pretty obvious take away Ertz, wetnz is done

 

[JohnsKey19]

You're not going to stop him but I would do more to disrupt him at the LOS to throw off the timing of the play.

 

[Hook'em#11]

Ertz is going to get his. He is a talent on a crappy team. Dallas needs to play the fundamentals and have absolute effort on both sides of the ball. I agree with the LOS disruption. They get Wentz uncomfortable.. They will be in good shape. The Cowboys just can't play down to the Eagles level.

 

[JBell]

Definitely have to give him more attention in the redzone. He killed us down the seam.

Tampa Bay, Tennessee, Minnesota and Dallas all allowed Ertz to catch 10 or more passes (14 against the Cowboys).

All losses.

Only the Saints "took him away" and the Eagles lost.

Don’t forget about Tate, he’s getting a little better with Wentz as time goes on.

YEAH! (In my best Trading Places voice from the jail scene.)

You bracket Ertz and you put pressure on Wentz. Problem solved.

What about Jeffery, Tate and Agholor? They're all scary

The answer is easy , dont let Wentz get comfortable , hit him every opportunity and make his life miserable, after a while every QB hears running feet and starts panicking, thats the way to go, but dont forget sproles ... he can cut us 2 ways with pass catching and running.

Sometimes players are that good. It might not be possible to shut him down short of putting Byron on him. I'd rather not do that with those other quicker WRs running around out there. Our priority should be pressure on Wentz. I think the pressure causes him to make mistakes.

He isn't much of a running back between the tackles. All of his good "rushes" are on tosses/pitch plays including the TD from Monday night. He's mostly a receiving scatback. Something the Cowboys don't have on the roster right now, unfortunately. Darius Jackson would fill that role, but nope we continue to trot out a hybrid fullback/slowback as our only other RB behind Zeke.

Byron should match up neatly against Alshon the Great. Jaylon should be manning up and locking down TE's with that speed, agility and athleticism.

 

[beware_d-ware]

I'm matching up my linebackers on Heath if I'm the Cowboys. Heath was overmatched earlier this year, but I seriously think LVE and Jaylon can handle him.

 

[Flamma]

Yep I agree. Shut down or severely limit Alshon. Byron has been ridiculous this year. Exceeded my expectations by far. He's a huge part of this defense.

Knock the crap out of him at los
Then put jones or a cb on him

 

[Blackrain]

This is the game here Eagles are a bit more inspired with Sproles back . We need to finish them before they catch any more momentum

LVE needs to be the spy and take Sproles in case he leaks out... he's our best tackler. Jaylon is our best in coverage or blitzing.
