[quote=Darrell Green Fan;1365255][B]I always felt the OL was not as bad as everyone believed[/B] and I too believe the center change was key. Words can not describe how bad our C and LG were last season, I saw that as a huge upgrade and we already knew the RG was really good.

I knew Lucas was adequate at LT, didn't see this from Coleman and other than Jayden Coleman he has been the biggest contributer of this rookie class. If they did in fact find their future LT in the 3rd round that would be huge for the rebuild as they won't have to go into the draft desperate to fill the position.[/quote]

I'm with you on that note.

Obviously needed an upgrade at Center & LG, but EB's horrid scheme and SH's tendency to hold the ball way too long were the main culprits that made the O-line look so bad at times.

Hoping Coleman works out. Early returns seem promising.

Re: 2024 Offensive Line
 

OL has done tremendous the past two games and have played solid the entire year so far. We can always improve, but they doing work and keeping JD upright.

[quote=EdmundDorf;1365259]It has confused me why Dallas opted to go with a 3rd round rookie to start at centre over the experienced guy they knew. That move is at the heart of both offences this season.[/quote]

This is the result of paying so much cap space to a few players. They had to make moves like this. Dak's contract will really hurt them.

Re: 2024 Offensive Line
 

[quote=EdmundDorf;1365260]Really looking forward to the next 5+ years with AP in charge, our second rounders haven't really popped yet but this years draft class is looking so good.[/quote]

I thought during the offseason that even if Daniels busts they draft so well they could overcome it. I mean what other team can spend so much on a player like Trey Lance, get nothing in return, and remain title contenders?

AP is the most important part of the puzzle, it's not even close.

Re: 2024 Offensive Line
 

At one point last year or a good part of last year, Sam was leading the league in pass attempts. Here he is in his 2nd year, 1st starting and you put that kind of pressure on a young QB, it just didn't seem fair at all.

EB is a clown coach, hard headed, very stubborn and had no business running a NFL offense. Kingsberry is committed to the run and is using multiple TE sets. He's just doing a damn good job right now and the players are stepping up and performing.

EB never used #8 at all. Look at how this guy is running the rock right now? Just so glad EB is outta here ruining UCLA's offense.

I don't think EB trusted the OL. And clearly this OL is far better so it's kind of an unfair comparison. I believe he didn't want to put his young QB in 2nd and long all afternoon so he spread it out and tried short passes to replace runs. Not saying I agree with all of this but I have to believe this was his train of thought.

Jerrah should fire his GM but he won't because he is his own GM.

Re: 2024 Offensive Line
 

[quote=KI Skins Fan;1365324]Jerrah should fire his GM but he won't because he is his own GM.[/quote]Correct. He also thinks he's the best in the world at it. Jimmy Johnson not Jones was the primary architect of talent acquisition for the run in the 90s. Jerry's ego got in the way and Johnson left. Still think Dallas may have won more SBs during that time if Johnson stayed.

Who cares about EB. We have a winning streak a potent offense, and a rookie that is quickly showing he has the makings of a franchise QB. Plenty of good things to talk about than rehashing irrelevant topics from the past.

Kingsbury > EB

Re: 2024 Offensive Line
 

And two 4th and 2 gambles, with the second the most ballsy. Coaching staff showing trust in the offense and it is paying off.

I’m serious, I could have designed a better offense.

Playbook expands with a QB who has legs like JD5. Makes those short to go so much easier.

Re: 2024 Offensive Line
 

You guys still juggling Sam Howell balls?
He was trash. EB was trash, River Boat Retard was trash.

That match made in hell gave us JD, hallelujah!
