Transcript
00:00These guys are having some problems with their offensive line
00:03They're having some problems with their health
00:06But they're also having some problems blocking in the running game. I'd like to hear yeah, and they've got some decent backs
00:14when you start to talk about Najee Harris and
00:17then
00:18Jalen Warren, and then they're using Cordell Patterson as
00:23a
00:24primary running back
00:26But this is a team that does the things that we always talk about the pin and pulls
00:30Because they can't come off the ball and just blow somebody off
00:34They can't when they try and double team or they have problems with they don't have the guys for it
00:40Just don't of the strength the Cowboys are having inside right now. They don't have the power don't sustain
00:45They just don't sustain block so and you and you were thinking oh man Pittsburgh Steelers heck
00:51Yeah, you know they run the football and all that you know they play a ton
00:56Of 13 personnel, that's the one you know one back three. Yeah, yeah, Arthur Smith is a tight end
01:03Monster, that's right. Yeah, that's his deal of the four games the Cowboys have played so far
01:09This is the worst blocking group of tight ends. I've seen oh
01:13Really, so there's a bunch of tight ends that can't block can't block when you watch them
01:17And and I was curious about this because I'm like yeah, they play so much
01:2313 personnel, I think there are well over 47%
01:2713 personnel I think they do it because of the quarterback
01:31You know they have to they're trying to kind of the when he throws the ball. Let's play max protection
01:37When we run the ball, let's make sure but this is this is the worst group and and darn it you remember yeah
01:46Was like an extra left half on the field now
01:49They use they use
01:52Mason McCormick who is a rookie as their extra blocker and
01:56He and he can't get it done. Just cuz Washington's just stinking. He's just been bad. He's just that
02:02That fire mouth. Yeah, this is bad
02:05They they've had they've had trouble at the point of fact if you look at if you look at it
02:10And I was curious about this because I was like man. They play so much 13 personnel
02:14Why don't they run the ball?
02:16They're one of the worst teams in the league when they get 13 personnel as far as yards per carry
02:21With a head it's the one thing we kind of understand with Dallas is when somebody goes big
02:27They have problems with that
02:30This is a team that goes big and doesn't give anybody problems
