  1. Elam is so fucking terrible..... Right there he watched the catch. Didn't move.... watched him struggle to catch it and then tackled him 2 yards after. He's just a really bad player.
  2. I mean..... for 50 years, that's not a delay of game and all of sudden this year, they want to crack down on that shit. I hate the new rules for the NFL. Trying to speed up play everywhere. It sucks.
  3. Almost 9 minute opening drive..... This will be a trend all season. This defense can't get off the field forcing the offense to be ultra efficient but also have to play at a pace which hides the defense. If the offense has a bad day, you can pretty much forget about it. The Giants may be one of the few teams they could win with a crappy offensive day. Let's see.
  4. The Giants are doing everything they can do to not score..... But don't worry, this defense says, HOLD MY BEER.
  5. UTEP wasn't really selling out to stop the run. They started to compress the field as the game went on but this wasn't schematically UTEP trying to take away the run. This was a mediocre line getting limited by a good but under talented DL or front 7. UTEP's strength was their front 7 and Sark tried to run right at them and enforce Texas' identity as a physically dominant running team. We failed until we got Arch into the running game and found James Simon and even then, it was just solid. This OL is not really very good right now. Not saying they're a shitshow but again, vs a team like UTEP, expectations should be YPC close or around 5. Need better efficiency per play. We didn't get it and with Sark's odd game plan, Arch was set up with a bunch of 3rd and 4th and long or mid in the first half, which is just fucking weird. First 4 drives, every sequence of new downs began with a run except for 1..... the drive we scored a TD. By the time we tried to force the ball downfield (with little to no creativity), Arch had already gotten in his head with that horrendous INT.
  6. Agreed, at least for now. His backups suck or are extremely inexperienced. It's up to Sark and Arch to try and get this turned around and right. Beyond his poor play -- can't see the field right now, late on everything, bad mechanics which creates inaccuracy, poor decision making, Sark needs to be way better. And so does the OL. The OL pretty much is mediocre or on the shitty side. Our normal running game outside of Arch was 46 for 176 or 3.8 YPC.... against UTEP. That fucking awful. So, some of this starts upfront. A lot is the game plan, as Sark wants to make this a running/PA team which is weird because the stats say Arch does better with a straight drop back. And then the rest is Arch needs to be a lot better and get back his confidence. If you go with a backup, it's because he's hurt or you lose 2 of the next 4 or 5 games and need to look to next year and get Lacey or Owens, probably Lacey some snaps....
  7. I like Tyler but this is a silly comment. Ty has already given up as many pressures, sacks, and holding penalties as Zach did in the first 10 years of his career. He's not in Martin's tier.... probably never will be. Let's not resort to hyperbole. He's a good player though, but get's lost sometimes and definitely gets beaten.
  8. So..... Blue and Mazi are inactive again. If Jaylon can't beat out Miles Sanders, then it says a lot about the personnel and coaching staff. That's ugly. We also made Ty Smith the highest paid IDL in the league..... So now we have 3 of the highest paid players at their position. Somehow I don't think Micah was about money...... This had been in the works for months and actually drops the Cowboys salary cap by about 10m.
  9. Okay...... getting a little confidence back. Good ball, good catch. Need one more drive to work on some things and then Sark needs to get his head out of his ass and Arch has to grow from this. Even if it's better than average, can't see this type of shittiness again, from either..... It'll be a loss.
  10. Okay, you've got him in the flow of the game with running, time to open up the offense a little...... Let's get some easy throws. Digs, curls, 9 routes..... Throw to a spot type stuff.
  11. Okay, Simon is our best healthy RB right now.... Seen enough. Best vision and most giddyup.
  12. WTF is that 2nd down playcall..... Again, just awful.
  13. Simon is giving the offense an explosion they can't get anywhere else..... It's so needed. Have to replace some of Blue's explosion.
  14. 2 and 11.... Run. Because, why not!!!
  15. All of our WRs suck at blocking.... it's a major issue. Some try more than others but I laugh a half dozen times when Sark tries to go with WR screen or something on the edge which needs a block on the LB and Niblitt is out there playing touch football. Hey, a TD!!!! With his legs!!! Who would have thought.
  16. Wingo with the ole' block..... JFC, dude.
  17. I think you have to try an shake this and up tempo may be it.... I'd start running him more. Even a FG would be great.
  18. This is flat out embarrassing.... A totally embarrassing effort and it's all on one side of the ball.
  19. He also teaches a shitty technique with the way he approaches lineman's feet. He's a bit overrated.
  20. Arch needs to start looking to run. I'd get in his face. The good cop ain't working.
  21. Terrible QB'ing by Malachi..... We just won't be able to rely on the defense bailing us out every game vs a quality opponent. Sark needs to stop calling this game like it's a practice. If he's not and calling towards what he think we're running well, then...... we have bigger issues. Nice to see Jelani with the pick!!!
  22. Horrible game plan with bad Arch again. This is extremely frustrating and rather confounding with what Sark is trying to accomplish. It's obvious he wanted to work on the running game today but sometimes, you just need to give what the defense gives you. Several 3rd and long runs.... Just senseless but Sark.
  23. Looks like Bland is going to miss more time with a foot injury. At least it's not the same foot which knocked him out last year. DaRon just signed an extension which made hime the 6th highest paid CB by AAV in the league. He will be missing his 11th and 12th game in his career (out of 54). Micah missed 4 games with the Cowboys (out of 68). Strange how opinions get around....
  24. Not really. Zeke was the first round pick in 2016 and this was before Will was promoted to head guy of player personnel in 2017. Will's had a voice in the draft process for over 2 decades but it wasn't really his definitive call until 2017. 2013 was Frederick and they demoted they guy who had the most voice in drafting him, Tom Ciskowski.
  25. Fun fact..... This is Michigan's last game vs a ranked opponent until the last week of the season. Their entire schedule is a dog's ass, and yet they still may only go 7-5 this year.... And their coach is over his head.
