Granted, I guess if this is him TRYING, as opposed to the other play, where he literally stepped out of the way, I guess there is minimal difference

Shout out to my boy Nick Kwitakowski from WVU for putting him on those skates.  Hard nosed dude.

when the two weakest links on the O-line are a rookie center and your left tackle, the QB and the offense are going to struggle

Cousins is a "good" QB under perfect conditions, clean pocket 1st or 2nd read open

under pressure of any type, pass rush, receiver not open, big game, road game, whatever, he is not good at all.

regardless, Dalvin needs to block or get off the field on passing downs

yup. there is zero excuse for a RB not being able to pick-up a blitz. Unless that RB was facing LT or Derrick Thomas or someone of that caliber from this era like Von Miller. RB's need to pick-up blitzes. The truly great ones doo. Dalvin Cook is never going to be more than a change of pace/receiving back/slasher until he learns how to pick up blitzes.

in reality not many RBs that are actually runners are going to win many battles vs great pass rushers, but they've got to at least show some effort and get in the way to slow them down

now, blocking backs that are in on 3rd down specifically to pick up the blitz can do a little better, but pitting a TE or a RB vs an elite pass rusher is foolish

I see too many times a TE is assigned to pass pro vs a good to great DE, doesn't usually end well for the QB

kinda crazy- Taco Charlton couldn't get on the field in Dallas and was feuding with Rod Marinelli- they release him and he signs with the Dolphins and Taco has 3 sacks in 2 games and has really flashed off the screen in parts of the 2 games he's played with the Dolphins that I've seen.

Maybe, just maybe, Rod Marinelli is an F'n idiot and Jason Garrett is just Jerry Jones' bitch boy with no spine?

As a Lions fan who suffered through those years where that bozo was the head coach, I'm gonna go with um yeah- Rod Marinelli is an F'n moron.

the Boy's d-line does a pretty good job getting pressure on QBs and plugging the run

not saying Taco shouldn't have more snaps, just saying they seem to be above average w/o him in the lineup

Prolly could have rotated with the platoon system.Eventually they'll need the depth - every one does

after a quick check, the Cowgirls could have been better with sacks - 13th this season after 4 games - 16th last season

rushing defense is better, 5th this season, 12th last season

they could use some improvement

MORON-elli was the head coach of the infamous 0-16 Lions team. Guy coached the Lions for 3 seasons and won 9 games in 3 years I want to say. Excellent coach as you can tell.

The NFL has lived on parity, but there has to be as little of it this year as ever in the free agency era.  The Dolphins, Broncos, Bengals, Cardinals, Redskins and Jets are all just dreadful.

Sadly if you string it out he still had a better winning % than the Browns under Hugh Jackson
