Couple things on the Stew fumble play.....

That's why I am saying you don't know the scheme that was called. If it was an inside run, Bell did what he was supposed to do. You can see an extra block on the TB number 45 (looks like one of our TE acting as a FB) to the inside. And the WR is not even attempting to engage the CB to block him. All this and Bell's technique tell me it's an inside run. When the running back cuts it to the outside, you can't blame Bell for "not sealing the edge" just like you can't blame Kalil for his assignment recovering the fumble.

Great post pimp.

 

Your comments are a great example of how we jumpt to conclusions about who blew what on a particular play.  Like you said, Bell could have done exactly what he was supposed to do on this play.....or not.  We (idiots watching the game) have no real clue......we just like to think that we do.

If anyone at all had blocked the guy who actually made the tackle it would have very likely been a TD, Selective blame is pretty clear cut around here these day.Perhaps it was a broken play but seems Brown should have been attempting to block someone with the play going that direction.

If the play relied on a crucial block from the WR on that side, then Brown should have been the last guy to put out there.

 

Yes he's obviously got speed, but he still has to get his weight up for the NFL.

 

That's on coaches, you use your personnel to their strengths.

    • We don't have to tear down Dak to appreciate what Bryce did yesterday. Dak had 0 running game. If the cowboys were better, he'd be a legit MVP candidate if he keeps playing this way.  They did it with Ceedee last year, but they do a better job of anybody we play consistently of getting their best receiver off Jaycee.  Bryce was good too. If we just catch the ball that was intercepted, we probably win by 7+, and Bryce goes over 200 yards passing.  Biggest shift the last few weeks has been play calling. I thought Canales abandoned the run game way to early at times last year. This year he really seems to be sticking with it.  I still think Chuba is better at making 4 yards when there's nothing there, but Rico is better at making 30 yards when there's 6 there. I like the direction. Hopefully we can get Moton, Sanders and Coker back and really be dangerous. Our play action game is pretty deadly right now.  Unrelated: My favorite quality about Bryce right now is his ability to see the defensive hold and throw the ball there. He EXPOSES the officials when they don't call it. That one on Tetaroia yesterday late in the game was a bad miss on their part. 
    • That sacks allowed number lookin juicy!  
    • This is a game the Panthers should win... just the sort of game they lose. The Panthers have a bad habit that goes back years of playing down to the competition's level only to mess around and lose the game. The Jets game should be taken very seriously! But I want to enjoy the fact that they beat the Cowboys for at least another day or so!
