What do you fuckers think of the Escobar pick now?

Dude looks like a weapon that should be featured more.

Yeah he's a mismatch downfield for sure. Glad to see them getting him involved.

The Giants totally sold out to stop the run game today and we burned them downfield quite a bit because of it. Escobar in the redzone and running those downfield routes is going to cause teams a lot of problems.

With the way defenses will now be keying in on stopping the rush. We'll be able to pull of a lot of good plays in the passing game out of the 2 TE set.

Something has to happen there to repair the receiver routes. Dez had 9 catches and the next receiver had 3. Something is really wrong when you have players like Beasley, Escobar (until now), Harris, and Dunbar but can't find anything for them to do but "hey go get open".

Did anyone see the Cincinnati game? It was silly. The Colts knew all the routes and tendencies that the Bengals have with that offense. At 4:35 in the 3rd quarter, the Indy CB actually ran the route with the Bengal wide receiver. It's a repeating system and the Bengals with all of their talent were throwing into tight coverage hoping height would prevail. They had no short or intermediate routes and would not use their RBs until later in the game. Why is this relevant? It's Jason's system run by Hue Jackson and the league is just not fooled anymore.

Neither Linehan (11-25 record as HC) or Marinelli (10-38 record as HC)are sexy Head Coach hires. I'd like to think that Garrett sees Linehan calling even games with the same talent Garrett mismanaged a year ago, and has at least learned something. If Marinelli were to leave, Jerry needs to open up the checkbook and hire someone like Gus Bradley (if/when he's fired from Jacksonville), my man crush Pat Narduzzi (Michigan State DC), or Ken Norton (Seattle Linebackers coach).

Jay Ratliff had 3.5 sacks today.

Colts 42 pass attempts

Cowboys 23 pass attempts

Romo just has a QB rating of 136 and the Giants didn't have any DB come close to stopping Dez Bryant

What the fuck are you complaining about?

Yep. And they lost.

Here is how well Zach Martin has been holding up before this week according to PFF:

Zack Martin - The Cowboys’ rookie right guard has a Pass Blocking Efficiency of 98.2%, allowing pressure on the quarterback five times on 204 passing plays. https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2014/10/17/pff-preview-cowboys-giants-week-7/

For those that love Ryan Williams, this might be the end of his era here in Dallas.

Bills probably desperate for RB help now, lost top two backs today.

Wonder who the Bills have as a DL that is worth a shit for a trade?

 

[Bob Sacamano]

We could get back Jarius Wynn from them lol

Bills have a great DL, but doubt they want to trade any of them.

 

[Doomsday]

Right, certainly not any of the starters. I'm talking depth chart for Bills DLs. Someone who can help us right away.

 

[Doomsday]

Hell, throw in Claiborne for trade bait at this point.

 

[dbair1967]

One of the amazing stats of the yr. We came into the game converting about 56% of our 3rd downs. Today we were 9 of 14.

Amazing stuff.

35 rushes, 25 passes and almost 34 minutes TOP

Terrell McClain played quite a bit today and made a few flash plays, should have gotten credit for forced fumble and recovery on that one tackle behind the LOS. he also was credited with another TFL

Tyrone Crawford is looking like a legit player up front.

 

[Rock Slamdance]

Hell, throw in Claiborne for trade bait at this point.

Yes, most teams are interested in an underachieving, over-paid, IR saddled corner.

He can sweeten a deal only a little. Not a bad way to be rid of him.

Whiners getting blown the fuck out in Denver

One day closer to Harbaugh back to Ann Arbor

Can't trade injured players.

What the fuck are you complaining about?

Not complaining. Just worried a little. The run game is working well and the play action has ALWAYS worked in this offense. But Romo still got sacked twice today and intercepted once. Why? It's that as soon as a team realizes there is a pure pass play coming, the offense is vulnerable. Like the Bengals were today and Dallas was for the last three years. That's all.
