T.J. Bass

But across the line as a unit, things are barely hanging on.

TJ Bass? TJ Bass is doing okay for an extra lineman.

You know as well as anybody, every team in the NFL wants extra linemen on their team.

No one has as many as they need.

I believe they can put up 40 points.

barring what schottenheimer's doing on offense with the play calling and stuff like that jack prescott to me has been an mvp the passing game is produced and you put up 37 against the commanders now you have to get the run game going clayton adams is supposed to be the run game savant and through two weeks they have not not run the ball well giovante williams it just seems like he hasn't had any help up to this point like he's having to turn negative four yard runs into negative one yard runs or zero yard gains into one to two like he's getting downhill he's he's playing physical football he's making defenses pay he just doesn't have enough room and I know they're still missing uh Tyler Smith that certainly hurts but I this is not all on TJ Bass if you go and watch the Cowboys offensive line and some of their run blocking stuff it's just always one miss here or there whether it's It's Terrence Steele a good bit of the time, but sometimes it's Tyler Booker and Cooper Beebe.

They just haven't really gelled that well in the run game.

That doesn't mean I want the Cowboys to go in there and try to establish the run against the Ravens.

And if you guys want to know my thoughts, those are my thoughts.

I think we see them do exactly what they did with TJ Bass or Brandon Aubrey last year.

And they do that second-round tender or whatever the tender, the first-round tender, whatever that tender is they placed on GP.

Or maybe even a second-round tender because they're like, you know what, we're cool with a second-round pick.

And all week we've talked about how mainly your run lane is going to be up the middle because of the challenges they present to you on the outside.

With Matabike in the very middle of that, being guarded by one TJ Bass, this does not bode well for the run game.

Hell, even Booker could be a challenge for him as well.

Yeah, that needs to be a conversation too.

And, you know...

People tried to make it as if when Tyler Smith went out, oh, TJ Bass, he'll be in, he'll be fine.

When you take elite all pro, talking about arguably, if not the best, He top two.

He might not.

You don't have that.

You don't have that now.

TJ Bass is like, he's swimming too.

But

But Namdi's a dude as well.

So this is another week for TJ Bass, for old Teej to step up again.

Don't forget that Calais Campbell is there, too.

Yeah, he didn't practice.
