He was not getting pushed around Like Roy or Hoskins. 

I make it a point to watch Hoskins when he is in and I consistently see him collapsing the pocket when he isn't getting doubled or blatantly held (75 on the Bills OL was getting away with murder). I also see him hustling to the play even when it's going away from him. Are you sure that you're not mistaking him for #91 (Larken) or #54 (Nixon)? Nixon has been incredibly underwhelming.

I think that we should just roll w/ last year's DT group but replace Jones + Nixon with Ioannidis + McCall.

I think its possible we go with 6 DTs, but with Hoskins being the swing DT/DE.

Entirely possible. He was lined up as the end on a couple of plays.

Plus, having guys like Luvu, Shaq, Smith, or even Chinn that can come down and rush the passer as well means that they might look for more beef in the middle.

You know, you are probably right.  I get them confused, and I may have last night.  Nixon is sorta the undersized gap shooting DT---I bet I was seeing him and blaming Hoskins.  Wonder how long I have done that.

Nixon is such a weird case to me.

When we drafted him there were some pundits calling it an absolute steal. He flashed at that joint practices last offseason as well, but the dude just seems to disappear on the field. I'm regularly seeing other players get better pushes against the same OL 😞

I can't tell if it's a processing issue or a physical issue either. Maybe he's the TMJ of the defense?

      Chances against the Cowboys

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Yes. I went to those games instead of selling In 2018, it was hot  as hell and the Panthers had some ‘entertainment on the side of the stadium, like a street fair…I have never seen so many seriously obese people, men and women, in cowboy leggings and shirts   I swear, it was traumatic  I said to my friend with me ‘dear god, Cam. In the name of all that is holy, please win  this home game, if you never win another one, to shut these people up.   I stayed in a hotel sat and Sunday near stadium. Sweet Jesus  obnoxious …of course,when they lose,, there isn’t one sign of cowboys anything   worst fans ever,  they will be in Charlotte in force because even at the escalated price in Charlotte, , it was still cheaper than attending in Jerry ville

      Jags WRs have twice as many drops plus some as the next closest team.

      Very true about Pennington but I don’t think anyone traded a haul to move up in the draft to get him, that’s what gets me about young. I mean essentially we gave up cmc and moore, our two best offensive players, one of which is arguably one of the best in the league. Gave them up for a guy who hasn’t shown any reason for us to give up the haul to get him. It’s year three and we are seeing the same mistakes he was making year one game one.
