Bennett was a DE that could rush from the interior. Osa is the opposite, a true DT who can make plays at DE too. This is probably too far but maybe a young Ratliff.

I'm trying to resist this but hell with it... I won't say Donald's name of course. But poor man's Geno Atkins? Kind of an undersized, shortish mid round pick interior player with quickness and power? That's how impressed with him I am.

Dalton Schultz is here to win.

Smart with the football, 3 TDs 0 INT + win = we'll take it

Some ol' nors math

 

[Cowboysrock55]

He literally reminds me of his brother in terms of ball skills. I'm willing to bet he could have been a pretty damn good receiver if he wanted to be. But I'm glad he is playing corner for us instead.

 

[ZeroClub]

I don't care what Booze says, this team is legit. We were hoping for just an average at best defense and we have shown to be much better than that. These young guys could take us over the top. I'm not calling for a SB just yet, but we are going to make some noise if we stay healthy.

I'm guessing all of us like the Cowboys' chances of winning the NFC East (knowing that it is far from certain).

Geno Atkins was a comparison I made when we drafted him. That may be kind of spot on.

Martin did something like that too once.

Yeah I mean I think the Eagles may be the second best team in the division and we beat the breaks off them. Washington if they ever figure out their defense may be able to push us a little. But in general I feel good about the Cowboys and feel like the rest of the division is pretty well trash.

 

[Genghis Khan]

Walked himself out of the fucking play. So frustrating watching him play ball.

It's almost as if he thought Lane Johnson somehow had the ball.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

Just having some fun while crushing a team. I can't hate on that.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

I guess I need to go back and watch Golston.

But given they ranked Prescott below Hurts, I dunno how reliable this grade is.

Yeah their grading system sucks but I did at least see the guy on the field. And it at least gives me some hope that despite all the hate we had on this board for our third round picks, we may have nailed a couple D-lineman picks.

Diggs performance kinda overshadowed? He was phenomenal.

 

[Genghis Khan]

Last year we couldn't stop anyone.

This is the big thing.

So far they've looked like average is their floor, and we've been saying all along that an average defense could allow this team to go pretty far.

Holding down even a bad offense is a big improvement.

We couldn't stop my grandmother last year.

[Genghis Khan]

So Smitty agrees with Jerry Jones.

Noted.

 

[Cotton]

My god, this feels good.
