Posted Saturday December 06, 2008, About: Emmitt: Current Cowboys just 'mediocre'
Besides injuries - a HUGE factor - the other main problem this year has been the D-line. With their curent people they need to play a 4-3, with both Tank AND Ratliff in at the same time. Ratliff, as good as a playmaker as he is, is just not HEAVY enough to be the pocket-collapsing run-stuffer PLAY AFTER PLAY. A Casey Hampton (6' 1", 325) he's not. Every time the 'Boyz get a heavy-enough NT, they CUT him. NT's need to be a minimum 325, but better 340. This allows you to push the pocket back into the QB's face, so your edge pass-rushers can make the sack.
