i just heard a dolphins reporter on the radio here in Dallas doing a preview for the dolphins cowboys game.

 

He said in reference to the bills cowboys game that if the dolphins run the ball like the bills did it will be game over because the dolphins can pass the ball....

 

yikes. The media in Miami is as arrogant and ignorant as their fan base is.  

 

 

Obviously a dumb comment for the bills can’t pass implication haha but I don’t think they even realize how big an if that is too with regards to running the football.

 

i really think Dallas can come out in the dime and rein in the Miami running game pretty easily with all the offensive linemen Miami is missing

When I watch the highlights of Cooks big runs I often see one or even two Cowboys shadowing Allen even after he handed off the ball.  The Cowboys really were terrified of Allen and overcompensated big time to contain him.

 

 

Yeah, it's been talked about how Parsons was often left unblocked.  Part of the reason was that he was really worried Allen would keep.  Saw one replay where Josh hands the ball off to Cooks running to his left, and Allen steps right as if he still has the ball.  You can see Parsons take a wrong step to his left to chase Allen and by the time he starts moving in the right direction, Cooks is long gone.

It was an example of excellent game planning to minimize a special edge rusher, you need an Allen or Lamar level run threat to execute the RPO at that high of a level.

Well if that's true, the Dallas D won't be nearly as concerned about Tua doing a keeper run

Ha! Thanks!!!


 

on a separate note, I don't want to overlook the Chargers or the Pats. But is anyone nervous for the dolphins game, being on the road for us etc. I have some big time Dolphins fans at work and they're already starting..

 

Let 'em chirp.  Save their receipts.

Chargers continue to clean house: Goodbye, Sebastian Joseph-Day

He's second on the team in QB hits behind only Kahlil Mack.  Also a team captain.  

 

Strange timing.

I know. I mentioned I was not overlooking the other two teams. But I am just saying they are already saying stuff...or "chirping" as the kids say

The chirping belies their fear to me. Let em chirp.  Everyone knows that game is gonna be for the division. Gonna suck for them when we take it back after they kept it warm all season

OBL mentioned Interim coaches 16-12 in 1st game since 2010. 

 

I wonder how many that win

 

-lost their QB

-lost their top 2 WR

-lost C 

- lost top Pass Rusher

- were playing a good team

 

I think not many. I'd bet slot of those Interim coach wins were after byes too.

They have cap issues and apparently they believe someone will pick him up on waivers saving them cap - current and future.

Their fans and media really have blinders on. They only look at the tomato cans they beat and disregard the obvious. 

 

THEY DON'T BEAT GOOD TEAMS!

 

This game is a big measuring stick for them. Miami's home field is not a big deal outside of the summer months and the Cowboys have enough weapons to score on what I consider an overrated defense.  

 

Really looking forward to Week 18. Get through these next 2 games quickly and healthy and it's on for the finale.

Good stuff , until Cosell works in that line near the end again that we have limited talent. 

 

Cosell lost all credibility w me for saying we don't have a talented team. He says it again and again and it's a completely idiotic take.

Yeah, especially when you factor they run the ball by passing and gimmick.

 

They don't have our OL.
