Whenever the possibility of adjusting overtime to guarantee the team that kicks off to start the process a chance to match or first-drive touchdown Deonte Thompson Color Rush Jersey , plenty of fans shout, “Play defense!” They seem to be a vocal, but yet distinct, minority.A poll posted Friday on Twitter, which drew 34,696 votes, had only 26-percent support for keeping the current rule in place. The other 74 percent want the guaranteed possession for the kicking team.Here’s the surprise: More than 70 percent of the people who favor change want it for both the regular season and the postseason.As made clear during the recent #PFTPM interview of Cowboys COO Stephen Jones (a member of the Competition Committee) https://www.dallascowboysfanshop.com/Sean-Lee-Jersey , momentum clearly exists for a change to the overtime rule, but it’s more likely that the revised rule would apply only to the playoffs. And there’s good reason for that. Regular season games already are long enough, and the reduced duration of overtime (two years ago, it was cut from 15 minutes to 10) would create a incentive for the team that wins the toss to chew the clock, scoring a touchdown with as little time as possible remaining for the kicking team to match.Besides, the consequences of a single regular-season game pale in comparison to the consequences of a playoff game. Sudden death would be fine for a regular-season game. But when the outcome of overtime ends one team’s season and sends the other to the next round, a more fair process is required.It looks like that more fair process is coming. And it looks like most of you would be OK with that.

Not just any defensive tackle but the quick-footed, explosive Jason Witten Color Rush Jersey , and disruptive three-tech, Trysten Hill. Now, there are plenty of critics of this selection but in the minds of Stephen Jones, Will McClay, and especially the coaches, this Cowboys defense needed more playmaking ability in the interior of its front four.If Trysten Hill checks all the prototypical boxes of a 4-3 under tackle than who better than Rod Marinelli to squeeze every last drop of potential out of him? Trysten Hill is the highest draft pick the Cowboys have spent at defensive tackle since they took Russell Maryland first overall in 1991. Since Rod Marinelli has been the defensive coordinator of the Cowboys, the highest pick used on a defensive tackle was Maliek Collins at 67th overall in the third round of the 2016 Draft. Collins had quite the rookie season:PLAYERYEARDRAFT #TMGPTCKLTFLSCKFFPDHow good was Maliek Collins as a rookie? Well https://www.dallascowboysfanshop.com/Demarcus-Lawrence-Jersey , Collins was the 11th interior defensive lineman selected and only the seventh overall pick, DeForest Buckner, had a better statistical performance. Collins has played through a few injuries in the past two seasons since his rookie year but still is a quality contributor for the Cowboys defense. At the same time, Collins is not the type of athlete that Trysten Hill is advertised to be. The Cowboys fully expect Hill to be a disruptive force as their starting under tackle. Gone are the days where you would draft a player and he spends several years honing his craft before he’s thrust into a starting role. Some teams will have the depth to do so but the majority of teams draft guys they plan to start in the first few rounds. Looking at the past five years, 14 defensive tackles have been taken in the second round. Here is a look at each of their rookie season performances:PLAYERYEARDRAFT #TMGPTCKLTFLSCKFFPD So, what kind of impact can you expect from second round interior linemen? Teams have been able to get plenty of production out of these rookie defensive tackles. Though that production doesn’t necessarily translate to huge sack numbers, it’s not always just about sacks. Pressure and clogging rushing lanes are just as important to success on defense. Trysten Hill’s calling card is his ability to disrupt the pocket with elite burst and agility. The Cowboys are hoping that having that type of burst and power in the middle will help occupy blockers long enough for guys like DeMarcus Lawrence to cut loose on the quarterback. With the addition of Trysten Hill to a defensive line that has been adding key components all offseason Ibraheim Campbell Jersey , the Cowboys are going to have a pretty menacing pass rush. Then you have to throw in the playmaking abilities of linebackers Leighton Vander Esch and Jaylon Smith into the mix. Rod Marinelli and Kris Richard may finally have a defense capable of reaching elite status. One thing you know you’re always going to get with this Cowboys defense is a whole truckload of hustle. Trysten Hill is not coming to a defensive line that needs him to be “the guy”, they already have that in Tank Lawrence. However, Hill’s physical makeup and abilities will only help the defense as whole take that next step. What the Cowboys are doing here is building on that “rush in waves” mentality that has always been this defensive coordinator’s goal. Say what you will about players on the back end of the defense but maybe their jobs just got a whole lot easier with the quality of the players within the Cowboys front-seven.
