I haven't rewatched the game yet, but when I do I'll pay attention to Smith from what you guys are saying.

Romo actually pointed something out I hoped fans heard... there's a lot of miscommunication on offense, particularly in the pass-pro. Between Ryan, the OL, and RB, we were (and have been) letting guys run straight through us because "I thought you had him." Hopefully that kind of communication stuff can improve, because KC blitzed the fucking shit out of us and we could not pick it up all day.

But Danny Pinter is beyond communication. This kid gets physically dominated throughout the course of the game. Technique, physical strength, whatever it is... he gets worked, and some of these plays are utterly embarrassing. This on top of the mental fuck ups the OL is having is brutal.

I think a lot of us have acknowledged that when Raimann gets healthy, he needs baptism by fire at LT. Pryor isn't athletic enough for LT, but he's a huge strong dude that is naturally a guard, so move him to RG.

If the OL could get fixed and if Ryan can settle down a bit like he did on the last drive, I have a lot of hope for this team again.

Odd, since the OL is supposed to be a strength. Still, at this point I'm believing my lying eyes over that.

I don't think moving around these guys is the going to help much. These guys themselves are going to have to improve. Maybe Raiman is the answer at left tackle but if the rest of these bozos don't fix whatever ails them and start playing as a unit it won't matter at all. Ryan, Smith and Nelson have all done it before at a high level and have done it recently. Physically they should still be able to. Money makes some men lose their drive, to early to say for sure but it sure does look like these guys aren't hungry in the least. Or maybe the coaching sucks and they are not prepared. Sure looked like that at times.
