I believe Marist can be a GREAT asset IF given the opportunity 💯
💥 Tyler Booker looks READY for a massive Year 2 leap.
The Dallas Cowboys may already have one of the NFL’s next premier guards developing right in front of us. His physicality, anchor strength, mentality, and finishing ability are beginning to align into something dangerous.
And if this jump happens?
Dallas’ offensive line could become one of the most dominant units in football. 🧱🔥
Tyler Booker entering Tier 1 guard conversations sooner than people think… 👀
s
🧱 The Cowboys are FINALLY building through physicality again…
Offensive line.
Defensive line.
Run game.
Violence in the trenches.
Dallas might be creating the most physical identity they’ve had in YEARS. 💥👀

Did GP prove himself enough already?
Drop Yall Thoughts ⬇️
The Dallas Cowboys offensive line is quietly becoming the FOUNDATION of the entire team again. 👀
Young talent.
Physicality.
Scheme evolution.
Athleticism.
Depth. ⭐️
This group has the potential to completely transform the identity of the offense. 🔥
The Dallas Cowboys NEED Tyler Guyton to make a massive jump this season. 👀
Because if he develops the way Dallas expects… ⭐️
The Cowboys can keep their MOST dangerous offensive line combination intact. 🧱🔥
This is bigger than one player.
This affects the entire identity of the offense.

There has been a lot of discussion on Running Backs in particular what selection of Archetypes would best help a football team, which usually includes the infamous
“Thunder & Lightning Combo⚡️”
But what most didn’t know is that the trend has slowly but surely being phased out. Speed is still definitely valued in the league, but now it’s changed from being the only skill you can offer as the archetype, ‘pure s**t-back’. Which means you are solely the change up or utilized situationally.
No...now teams want to COMBINE that burner speed with:
Inside run capability
Pass protection
Volume tolerance
Contact balance
Versatility in shotgun concepts
And the ability to stay on the field without tipping tendencies
Slowly but surely the NFL has shifted toward:
Power + Power Combo Backs, Power + Balanced Combo Backs, Balanced + Balanced Combo Backs
or what I call: “Scat-Complete” backs.
Running Backs such as Gibbs, Achane, James Cook are backs that signature skill is speed but these guys offer more than that as they are extremely dynamic in their usability.
These aren’t traditional s**t backs like Darren Sproles, Tarik Cohen, Nyheim Hines. Where they were known to be:
a screen guy
a third-down guy
a perimeter-only weapon
Modern defenses now live in nickel personnel, dime packages, lighter boxes, hybrid safeties, and coverage-versatile structures.
Offensive coordinators adjusted accordingly to attack those lighter looks, but in doing so, they realized the old “pure s**t-back” archetype came with a major problem: the moment those players entered the game, defenses immediately gained information. You were essentially tipping pass tendencies, perimeter concepts, spacing plays, or lighter physical intent. Modern offenses hate giving away tendencies because the entire goal now is to maintain leverage and unpredictability without constantly changing personnel. That’s why today’s NFL increasingly prefers running backs that can do EVERYTHING.
The Dallas Cowboys have invested WAY too much into the run game to not fully cash in. 👀
From the offensive line… to the backs… to the scheme… to the coaching changes… ⭐️
There is an INSANE amount of untapped potential sitting inside this offense right now. 🔥
Now it’s time to evolve.
