Tyron Smith is a mentor to the other offensive linemen. The veteran left tackle is one of the best in the league at his position, having made five straight Pro Bowls since 2011. The 28-year-old was named to the Pro Football Writers Association's All-NFL Team in 2016.

The Dallas Cowboys have the top-ranked offense in the NFL and much of that is due to their line. Tackle Tyron Smith and guard Ronald Leary have both been named to the Pro Bowl and Zack Martin has played at a high level from the start. All three were first-round picks by Dallas and they are getting better each week. These three players might be dominant when it comes to football but they aren't very good at another game called "Thingamajig". 

The Dallas Cowboys have announced they plan to play their starting lineup Wednesday night against the Philadelphia Eagles in the finale of the regular season. The Cowboys (5-10) will be trying to avoid their first back-to-back losing seasons since 1987-88. But Dallas owner Jerry Jones said after Sunday's overtime loss to Baltimore that a rash of positive tests for methamphetamine and related drugs among the club's backups made it unlikely his team would field its starters in the finale.

 New York Jets coach Adam Gase didn't hesitate to accept blame for a fourth-down decision that cost the team a win.  It all started when Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez hit receiver Santonio Holmes for a 40-yard touchdown with 9 minutes 53 seconds remaining to give New York a 24-17 lead over the Buccaneers. But instead of spiking the ball to stop the clock, offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer called for a running play that left more than four minutes on the clock. When Schottenheimer called timeout after Holmes scored, he tried to explain his actions. The Jets' fourth-quarter decision to not have quarterback Sam Darnold run the play on fourth-and-2 against the Patriots came from a directive by offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur that Darnold should throw the ball instead of run on the play. But LaFleur "looked around and saw four guys in formation," he said in a news conference Monday, referring to safety Duron Harmon, center David Andrews and both tackles. "

Drew Lock is focusing on the game, not his future with the Broncos.

 Drew Lock is focusing on the game, not his future with the Broncos. For a veteran making his third consecutive start at quarterback, Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock has no expectations for himself in Saturday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Lock has struggled in his two starts, averaging a respectable but unspectacular 6.4 yards per attempt. And for all of the criticism that some of his decisions on Sunday drew—namely, throwing a fade to a double-covered Tyrell Williams down 20-0 late—those came against an all-pro interior that only allowed 115 rushing yards in total, 49 yards from scrimmage from Phillip Lindsay and Royce Freeman combined and still recorded three sacks. Lock played well enough to win, and if the Broncos exploit their advantages agains. Broncos rookie QB Drew Lock drew favorable comparisons to fellow former Missouri standout and current Chiefs starter Patrick Mahomes. But the 2019 second-round pick was the clear third rival to Chad Kelly for the No. 2 r
