It's funny because Hilton coming in and the flirtation with Beckham seemed like it was about Noah Brown, but more and more it seems like it might be just as much about Gallup, who has been mostly pretty underwhelming.

This offense has been really good and it revolves around the RBs, plus Lamb, plus the TE group. It would be nice to have a vertical threat in there.

This dude gets it. None of that sugarcoating bullshit.

Cowboys safety Jayron Kearse: “Giving up 500 yards, no disrespect, to that Jacksonville squad shouldn’t have happened. … Just like we’re watching tape on other (teams), they’re watching tape on us. And I can assure you, right now, they’re licking their chops.”

They were smelling themselves and got humbled. Hopefully they take that to heart and do something about it.

You would have thought the Packers game would wake them up.

They paid some lip service to it after the Packers but I think they could throw out not paying attention to run defense as kind of an excuse that they could correct if they focus on it.

This seems to feel more like the problem is everything.

Their offense will look similar, run heavy, RPO/misdirection stuff just without the QB being as much of a threat as a runner. I'm sure they'll do with Minshew what they do with Hurts in the passing game, which is scheming up simple catch and run opportunities based off the RPO action with quick slants, screens and such.

Then they'll throw some indiscriminate 50/50 jump balls downfield when it's clearly a tossup between the WR and DB.

The big difference is that when their backs are against the wall they go straight to running Hurts on QB draws and designed runs over and over, that won't be an option anymore although I'm sure we'll see a few here and there to keep the defense honest.

I hope they do decide for some dumb reason to play him. If I am the Cowboys' staff, I hope they play Hurts and I instruct the defenders to tag him over and over without care about consequences until they knock him out of the game.

Agreed, this game means barely anything at this point, if they want to throw him out there it's time to mash him for the potential battle that lies ahead.

You run a read option, I'd tell Parsons don't even look at the RB, just go fucking blow the QB up. Hell this is how I'd defend that play every time until the Eagles learn their lesson. I'm tired of seeing a guy like Parsons stand their not knowing who to go after. Don't crash on the RB ever, go blow the QB up. Even if he releases the ball to the back, go get the QB.

I wish Hilton had more juice left. I am really not expecting much if at all

Fortunately we already have a good offense so we don't need him to be amazing. Just be in the right place, get open, and catch the ball.
