I’ve been watching as like he did here he has their OL giving ground instead of attacking. And the effect on the offense has been horrendous. Prescott has no pocket and there is no run game. The only reason they are in it is Newton has looked terrible even with a good pocket and time.

So I read your post and go to watch the game. I turn it on in time to see dak running for his life and getting sacked. Next play same thing only he fumbles it away.
Just wow. Went from best online in the league to a sieve.

A Dallas fan's thoughts when discussing why their OL was struggling

They have a valid point

Indeed.
It was like a switch was flipped; EVERY SINGLE pass play in the final 3 drives, Prescott had to avoid pressure/got sacked/fumbled.

I didn't think we'd ever get rid of that pudgy worthless albatross.

Doesn't matter; Tyron Smith looked weak and Collins looked awful.
Martin was a stud like he always is.

Dallas fans hate the ownership and HC FAR MORE than Bengals fans ever have and now have an even better reason to hate them. Mikey may be innept, but at least he has a shread of loyalty. Jurry and Schmoe care only about Jurry and Schmoe.

I'm sure that Paul Alexander's blocking scheme isn't helping, but.. Make no mistake, the Panthers defense is no joke.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

Elliott...500 carries for the season with 15 total yards and Jerry will decide to sign Alexander to a long term deal and make him the HC when they fire Garret.. THAT'S what I wanna see just because I hate Jones that much. LOL

Anyone wanna take bets on how long it'll take for me to get banned from the Cowboys board for the following? : " To be honest I thought it would take longer for Paul Alexander to screw up your offensive line, but apparently he hit the ground running and wasted no time.
Meanwhile the Bengals historically bad offensive line blanked the Ravens with zero sacks and an injured Joe Mixon gained almost 100 yards against them.
Anyone still think you got the better deal getting Alexander instead of Frank Pollack as your offensive line coach? I already know what would have happened had Alexander still been in Cincinnati and so does every other Bengals fan.
You should all lobby Jerry to fire Garret and make Alexander your new HC so Elliott can run the ball 500 times for 15 total yards!
Ok, that's not really fair..Alexander is a pretty good piano player which is essential for an offensive line coach.."
Now I feel bad for trolling Dallas fans.. lol
I'm kind of amazed how many people there are willing to overlook Alexander and place 100% of the blame elsewhere, but to be fair it's not Alexander's fault that they let Pollack go in favor of him.. That's on Jurry and Schmoe.. (Jones and Garret)
