Thanka for posting!

Vic is some of the last guard from the old school era. 

He had Philly playing #1 D over the last two months.

Funny they ran him out of Miami, I bet he banned the players from visiting the strip clubs.

The commitment to the run game was what kept us in that game.  Philly tends to win the time of possession (9th in average time per drive this year; 3rd last year), so for us to win it (33 to 26) is crazy impressive.  

The problem is our run defense couldn't get a stop whenever Philly did run.  Otherwise the gap would have been even wider.

High praise from one of the best.

I'm just pleased Canales actually followed my advice and used the running game to churn yards and try to win TOP. That was our best shot and we were so close to pulling it off. Losing Brooks surely derailed our plans some, especially since he would've kept Chuba fresher and been another outlet in the passing game.

No way it was close without your advice to Coach.

Canales did say when he first arrived about wanting to really establish the run. We haven't always done that, but I like that we tried and there were real benefits that came out of it.

I just took a peek and the Cowboys defense is generally not that good but they're the worst run defense we get to face this year. Mike Boone, I hope you're ready to carry some of that weight.
