Evan Mathis just cut...SIGN HIM MIAMI!!

[Dolphster]

....shit


He's doing well at guard...so let's fuck that up and move him to left tackle for a meaningless preseason game instead of getting him much needed reps at guard.  That makes sense.

No doubt.  He is finally reaching the point at Guard where muscle memory is taking over instead of taking the time to think about what he is doing.  So now they are going to give him practice reps and one game at tackle to jumble all of the assignments up in his brain again so that he regresses when he moves back to Guard.  What a nitwit idea.  As much as I hate the Cowboys, they have the right idea of protecting their top players as much as possible in the preseason (except Scandrick, LOL).  I don't care if the 3rd game is the "dress rehearsal" or not.  If the O-Line is not at full strength for that game, give Tanny one series and then pull him.  And the only reason I'd say to give him one series is just so he can prepare like he would for a regular season game and at least get a handful of game snaps to break the monotony of practice.

1) Mathis is full of shit. If he had that offer from the Ontario Rough Riders, he would've taken it. Now, he has to earn $4 Million by staying healthy and playing well. We could've had him but we chose not to, simple as that and it was dumb.

2) Why is Tanny playing this Saturday and why is Dallas being moved to LT after finally finding a groove at Guard?

Champions are built from the front office down, this is why no matter the talent on the field, I can't realistically say more than 8-8 without coaching and management and perhaps an ownership overhaul. Teams would trade us 2 First Rounders and more for Tannehill right now and we don't even protect him.

I'm going to lock this down. This thread was initially about Mathis and Miami, which is no longer an option, and has morphed into several other things. Let's do a refresh.
