Matt Eberflus vs. Cowboys

But if the interviewee was an offense coach, Ballard was suggesting Eberflus for DC.

I have been wondering about this lately. Was there anyone specifically that the snake wanted and is now on our staff. Seems a bit muddled when trying to find info.

I always assumed the OL coach - Dave DeGuglielmo - due to him working 2 years with the Pats. But, he has sort of been a journeyman - worked for 5 other NFL teams besides the Colts, including the Dolphins twice.

Maybe off topic but I try to never expose myself to the dumbass that is Skip Baylliss..... bit unfortunately people give him a platform by repeating his ridiculous takes. I heard his latest take re the upcoming Colts v Cowgirls game is that the QB advantage is firmly with the cowgirls.....seems Dak is far superior to Andrew on EVERY metric that matters. He's smarter, a better leader, and more gifted athletically.

Ok guess the QBR doesn't matter (8th in the NFL vs 22nd, advantage Luck). Dumbass.

That is one of the dumbest things I have ever heard.

especially since not Bayless but one someone I heard last month was basically saying Jones regrets now getting rid of Romo for Dak.

Bayliss says injuries and turnovers is why.

As for athleticism, I believe Luck had similar measurables to Cam Newton coming out.

But Skip is the equivalent of click bait to me. Also fans have never let him forget his RG3 over Luck argument.

Skip Bayless.....hahahahahahahahahahah!

His comments are worth about as much as a Fart in a Windstorm.

I have never seen that show. That's like like mixing a foaming at the mouth political AM radio show with sports. Both segments were very hard to listen to.

Dak has made a great showing... he made the playoffs as a rookie, missed as a sophomore and looks to be having a decent, if perhaps pedestrian season this year. I forgot that Dallas started 3-5.

As it sits now they have a two game lead in the NFC east. It would be a shame if someone screwed that up for them.

In terms of individual passing stats, only one item in one season stands out for Dak vs. Luck : He only threw 4 INTs his rookie season.

But even so, his yardage numbers are average, not even breaking 4000 yards and not likely to do it this year. He has averaged 22.5 TDs per season first two years and is right on pace for that again this year. 13 INTs last year.

He does run for a lot of yards, will give him that.

His average season so far though for passing, and they have all been about the same, would be at the lower end of any complete season for Luck

If you want to say he has been healthier, OK, true, but the other stuff is just stupid.

That team had a solid wall on the line for him his rookie season.
