Because of Cam.

Because they'd rather run Cam than throw the ball.

 

Um...Ok. You do know you are making a point as to why we are near the middle of the pack in Total Offense? Right?

 

I am truly sorry. But as long as we have Rivera, we are not going to be leading the league in Total Offense.

Atlanta is winning because they are effective at running the ball with Coleman and Freeman

Dallas is the one see because of their run game

New England looks invincible because of the duo of Blount and Dion Lewis

Laveon Bell has single handidly changed the steelers season

 

Ron is right. We need to run the ball better to lengthen drives and take some pressure off Cam. 

It is impossible to run with that offensive line. It is impossible to have a productive passing game with that offensive line. It is possible to be in last place with that offensive line.

They were not as loaded as people make it out to be. Zeke is a rookie. Leading reciever was Cole Beasley. 

2015 Panthers were a better all around team than 2016 Cowboys.

Best OL in the league, arguably the best RB, elite outside WR in Dez, elite slot WR in Beasley, very good TE in Witten.

They're fuging LOADED.

Titans have the best O-line. Beasley, elite?

Other than the O-line, I think the Panthers match up pretty well.

Excuses. Good teams find ways to win. Bad teams find ways to lose. 

Injuries are reasons teams lose.  That is just a reality.  Deep teams can overcome a few injuries, but if you get hit with a lot of them, you aren't going to win many games.

 

That being said, injuries don't excuse starting out 1-5 before the injuries were much of a problem.

The Cowboys have the best OL. A rookie RB ran for over 1600 yards. 7th fewest sacks allowed while starting a rookie QB.

I would consider Beasley an elite slot receiver, but admittedly that's arguable.

We have three players who could start on offense for them - Cam, KB, and Olsen. That's it.

You answered your question 

Didn't ask a question.  Made a statement.

 

People like to say that good teams find a way to overcome injuries.  But the reality is if the team has a lot of injuries, 99% of the time, they are no longer a good team.

 

However, injuries had almost nothing to do with our poor start.

A rookie QB doesn't have anything to do with it, and Zeke is great, but many good RBs could run behind that line, including Stew.

PFF said it best about why the Titans were the best line this season, and I don't see any reason to disagree.

It seems heretical to suggest that the Dallas Cowboys did not field the best offensive line in the game in 2016, but Tennessee’s unit really was without a weakness all season. All five starters earned impressive grades in both run blocking and pass protection, paving the way to 2,180 rushing yards as a team, 1,777 of which came from their first two running backs, DeMarco Murray and Derrick Henry. No member of the offensive line surrendered more than three sacks on the season, and while LT Taylor Lewan fell off a little as the year wore on, conceding more penalties than you would like, on the other side, rookie RT Jack Conklin earned PFF All-Prohonors. This unit may not be able to match the Dallas line in terms of its very peak performers, but there was no weak link along this chain all season long, and that’s why the Tennessee Titans finish the season as our No. 1 ranked line.

    • I will say that while fitterer was all over the place with no clue, Morgan at least seems to have a plan. Sign your good players, use fa to address big weaknesses,  don't mortgage the future, and try to build through the draft.  The results are still questionable but I can say we have improved.  He realized first our interior o line was trash, addressed it and it might have paid off handsomely bc we don't have to draft a qb this year. I still think x will grow into a 1,000 yd 8 td guy which isn't record setting but strong, brooks was a huge swing and a miss, but Wallace, jt, Smith wade and Coker were all solid gets and he also got a 2nd rounder back this draft and got Mike Jackson for a 7th that would've been cut.  This year our run d was trash so he addressed it with run d specific additions. Time will tell if it works but I am cautiously optimistic after years of being blatantly pessimistic and a good chunk of that is Morgan's work
    • With 3 coaches in 3 seasons, I didn't expect much development honestly. Coming out of college, he was always a project receiving tight end that was a very physical blocker. From what I remember, the thought was if he was able to develop his catching and route running, he could just truck people with the ball in his hands because he loves the physical contact. We've just sucked at developing talent for decades. Either guys have it when they get here or they don't.
