Someone answer me this

Why is powers on Dez Bryant? Peterson should be one the #1 WR every down. How are you elite when you can't play all over the field.

Peterson was on Austin

I don't have any idea who is considered the #1 on Dallas.

Austin is their #2 you are making my point.

 

[azmike74]

Honestly wasn't trying to prove or disprove. Austin is pretty good too.

Dez is a beast he needs to be covered by your best CB

That's not exactly Peterson's call. It's the design of the defense.

Wasnt this brought up last year or the year before that he only likes to play one side of the field?

They discussed this on the Cowboys broadcast. Arians said that because it was pre season the CBs would play a side of the field rather than a particular WR as opposed to a regular season game where PP21 would take Bryant.

Peterson played the best receivers last year for the most part -- and was left out on an island.

Richard Sherman plays one side of the field, it's not the end of the world. Peterson will definitely move around because he was on Dez for a couple of plays that I looked.

Answer: Preseason.

Honey Badger looked smaller and rookier tonight, Don't know if he will hold up all year at safety? He is explosive but it takes a toll.... and bigger receivers will win more than they lose..

2ndary are better than I thought but no where close to potential.

Because he was playing him early. What happened? holding penalty at first, then completion where he just owerpowered and outjumped him, then next play completely busted coverage (if Romo saw Dez, would have been TD), next two plays Dez was deep and had several yards on Peterson, again Romo not seeing that... One of those easy TD again if the ball was thrown.. Romo missed two TDs in just that short amount of time of those two against each other...

Much better to have your next best CB covering and have a guy on top, it was a mismatch to play like that all game long. You only do that if it is effective, it has to make sense matchup wise. I prefer to do the reverse, let my #2CB cover their best wideout and get him much over the top help, and then let the best CB cover their #2WR with less frequent over the top help, I think this is more effective.

besides, we no longer will be putting the pressure on QB as we did with Horton, and it will be harder for CBs to stay in man coverage for long. Last year, the effective blitzing schemes masked the need many times for down the field man coverage without help over the top. This year, we will play with more sover the top safety help, and than instead relying on the 4 man rush to apply pressure. It is a completely different philosophy. Corners will need to cover for more time now, but, with the added help of more safety help. I think this is already obvious at times.
