    It’s important to keep in mind, quarterback Dak Prescott is averaging just 2.62 seconds on all drop backs. Per PFF, only nine passers have a lower time to throw this season, so he isn’t asking much of his offensive line.

    Yet on passes delivered in under 2.5 seconds, Prescott is pressured the eighth most in the NFL, at a pressure rate of 7.1%

    While teams like Kansas City has had the same group playing 446 snaps together, the Cowboys’ most frequent combination has played just 92 snaps. Dallas’ second most frequent combination has also played 92 snaps. Their third most frequent combination is at 90 snaps. No grouping has played more than 23.1% of the snaps together.

    To say the Cowboys offensive line has been a game of musical chairs is an understatement. 42 different O-line combos around the NFL have more time together than any of Dallas’. Can we just get some dang continuity, people!

    Per Sumer Sports, 42 different combinations around the NFL have played more snaps together than the Cowboys most frequent starting unit

      I brought this up myself a few days ago in a post. It’s nice to have our starting O line all in, but they haven’t played together as a unit until the 49ers game. That wasn’t the first time this season. It was the first time ever.

    I don’t like the excuse that our starting O line played 2 tough defenses. Fuck that. With that amount of talent on the line. we should be able to run the fucking ball even just a little. It’s been pathetic, though. I’m concerned. Hopefully, they just need to gel
