Exactly. Clark is really good at stopping the run, he always has been. Right now the Cowboys are doing everything well defensively except stopping the run so Clark is the obvious choice right now
@@djackson8047 he was shedding most blocks pretty well but not all pro style yet..but soon if he stays healthy and continue to work hard he's going to be a force..
Damone Clark and Turpin are my sleepers on both sides of the ball...And Damone Clark and Parsons will eventually be THE BEST LB DUO IN THE ENTIRE NFL!!
As a Cowboys fan I'm excited about Damone Clark's quick progress and what he can become, and Jabril Cox, if he can get over the hump, he can be a very good contributor to this defense. Both of these young guys can become future starters at LB for years to come. Might even become star LB tandems.
Cox is in a bad spot because we play 3 safeties much of the time. He's a coverage guy who needed to get better at run support. I don't think it's an indictment on his skills, he's just not the kind of linebacker for this scheme. I like the kid and hopefully he gets better at the run. Also, at the 4:55 mark, it's so nice to have a DT that eats up blockers like Hankins did on that play. We have needed that for a long time.
I hope the staff doesn't give up on Jabril Cox he's still very young in his sophomore year, and coming off of an ACL tear (if I remember correctly) but I hope he can just contribute in anyway
He will. I think he's going to be the true run stopper we've been looking for. Dallas needs help against the run and he was one of the top run stoppers in college.
@@Delow811 the problem is your Defensive ends besides D Law don’t set the edge properly. You always see the ball get bounced outside or ran right behind the De because they’re trying to rush
@@michaelhelton3805 I've noticed that too..the de don't set the edge well enough to force the play back inside to where the help is..our defensive ends are too pass rush happy at times and often get caught out of position to be effective against run plays
@@mbblash6314 that’s not true .. theyve had a few good games at stopping the run .. look what they just did to Barkley last game shut em down .. they shut down gibson for commanders . They held Barkley under 100 the first game to , but the second was only like 30 yards .. they shut down mixon for bengals . They held miles sanders to 3.8 yards a carry and only like 70 yards .. they held akers to 30 yards .. I admit they have a few games where they gave up a lot in the run game tho .. but what I’m saying is theve shown there able to stop the run .. it’s not something they can’t do is what I’m saying
That can't be it for Cox cause LVE is the same way except he's a big guy that plays light. The LB'ers coach need to teach the LBers to blow up WR's crossing them under 5 yards, stop letting them run free by you when it's legal for you to brush them up a little.
You start looking at the 2022 Draft and it could be a real good one. If Smith, Williams, and Ferguson keep developing and if Tolbert starts to come on--then throw in Clark. Bland looks like a steal in the 5th. Hopefully, Waletzko can develop into a good swing tackle.
They say late first round to early second round and luckily Cowboys have been good in that department with players it’s backfired on us tho we took Lee he was great but was always hurt and I wished he wasn’t always hurt bc he would of been a HOF for damn sure and David Irving and Randy G and D-Law and jaylon Snith these players had off field problems or injuries and could of been drafted higher but they didn’t and we took chances on them and now Clark and I believe as long as he can stay healthy he will be a great LB as time goes on
@@DrRawBalls_TheDummy Jerry has taken WAY too many players in the 1st or 2nd Round that ended up being a waste. Consider these players Dallas took: NAME. POS. ROUND TAKEN/YR Bruce Carter. LB. 2/11 Sean Lee. LB. 2/10 Randy Gregory DE. 2/15 LVE. LB. 1/18 Kelvin Joseph. DB. 2/21 Sam Williams. LB. 2/22 Gavin Escobar. TE. 2/13 Jaylon Smith. LB. 2/16 Taco Charlton. DE. 1/17 Besides Sam Williams, who’s looking good but it’s too early to tell and LVE, the rest of the players were huge failures! And that’s JUST the 1st and 2nd Rounds. The 3rd & 4th Rounds are just as bad. I believe this is Jerry’s doing. He loves to Draft a kid higher than all the pundits have him ranked, and he turns out to be a Pro Bowler. I believe Jerry gets tremendous pleasure from that!
Damone Clark was a steal. He was the best linebacker in college last year. He is fast as hell, he tackles and a ball hawk. Clark will be better than LVE and Barr by end of the season.
Where i have a prob with LVE is he doesn't finish a dude OFF!! doesn't make guys fear him coming down and layn wood on a guy, when he has chances to he puts a guy down like a baby. Doesn't put fear in his tackles
The running play at 3:50 was not on Clark, it was LE's lane to fill "sooner" and he should have. Right on lane needed to be filled sooner wrong on who should've filled it.
I'm glad your saying we aren't coaches or know what's in the building...in my opinion Trysten Hill was never consistent enough...he wasn't good against the run and only flashed in the backfield occasionally....our future looks bright keep drafting to build don't over pay for free agents...keep building the lines....LVE and Barr are both a step to slow to the hole or reading and reacting....we need to get better at L.B. in both the run better tackling consistently and coverage....I been asking for a month why Cox isn't playing...he played really good last yr reading reacting and tackling...
Because Damone Clark is a tackling machine and he has great awareness of the offenses plays. You can see you’re already in the Bears game he was calling out where the play was going before the snap
It's a choice between Kearse and Cox. That's the position Cox would play. Large cover safety or coverage linebacker. D coach likes versatility of Kearse better. It's not Clark vs Cox.
I think Clarke is the better run stopper while Cox is better in pass coverage. As you all know we need help against the run well against the running QB’s and especially the boots and RPO’s.
Remember Hard Knocks with Jabril Cox and Micah Parsons as rookies? This was before Micah was Micah, we ain’t know what he was yet, but he was banging helmets in practice and Cox didn’t like it, I think that’s what they see in him. Although in his opportunities he played really well, I think they see Cox the same way they seen Amari Cooper, except Amari Cooper was a bonafide NFL #1 WR with years of pro bowl production. Cox basically a redshirt freshman still trying to get on the field.
Tbh Foots the play where you said he should have filled the gap, that was actually LVE’s job. But what does he do? Classic LVE of course, waits for the o line to push and gets washed away like always.
The Daron bland play was a late throw by fields. Glad bland broke up the ball but if that's a better quarterback he leads the receiver earlier and that's 6. He gave the receiver way too much space coming off the line. Fields was just holding the ball too long
He dealt with an injury during training camp if I recall, which may have hindered him a bit this season. But this week I don't believe he was on the injury report, although he was inactive. Also, Damone Clark is a way better draft prospect if you disregard his injury, and I think that impacts this decision as well. DQ is always talking about the importance of "on the job" training for young guys. I like Jabril Cox and think he'll develop into solid depth and great ST guy at the very least (which is good for a 4th rounder). But this organization probably looks at Damone Clark as a solid 2nd round pick they got for cheap because their own medical staff estimated a way longer recovery timeline (pre draft, then after he was on our team he's magically ready to go in october lol). The dude has all the athletic traits to be a top tier LB and really showed up in a big game against Bama. I imagine all else being equal they value getting him reps over Jabril Cox.
I’m sorry but LVE is hurting this team and I don’t see why y’all are saying he playing well. He playing ok and this defense doesn’t need ok. On every play it’s a hesitation on him hitting the gaps. Why not go with cox or the kid from OSU? Favoritism I say when the tape showed it was time for Jalen to go we got him outta there and I’m seeing the same thing now respectfully.
No one wants to say it, but Jabril Cox has just not lived up to the potential we all saw in him when he was drafted. Not the first, won't be the last. On the flipside, Damone Clark wasn't even supposed to see the field last season, and he played really, really well.
Answer to your question.... Jabril Cox is the Connor Williams of the LB position group. He does a lot of things well, ( technically ). But he's not a very physically punishing football player.. at the end of the day The More Physical Team is usually going to Win the game The Cowboys are making a concerted effort to Play a much more physical brand of Football... Players like Connor Williams, Leighton Vander Esh, Jaylon Smith, Jabril Cox, Jordan Lewis, Everson Griffin, Robert Quinn, Dontari Poe, Xavier Woods, Antuan Woods, Amari Cooper, Anthony Brown, Luke Gifford, and many others... Are just not built for a physical play style... Players like Jay Ratliff, Dez Bryant, Donovan Wilson, Ezekiel Elliott, Zack Martin, Micah Parsons, Erik Williams, Michael Irvin, Ed Too Tall Jones, Randy White, Larry Cole, Emmitt Smith, Larry Allen, James Washington, Ken Norton Jr, Cliff Harris, Rayfield Wright, Jethro Pugh, Roger Staubach, Dak Prescott, Butch Johnson, Drew Pearson, Roy Williams ( SS ), Leonard Davis, Darren Woodson. Harvey Martin. Nate Newton. These players brought a element of toughness, intimidation or fear to the game that skill cannot overcome.
Don't sleep on Cox! Cox is the 2ns best LB on the entire roster. Cox is coming back from a horrible knee injury. Cox should be rushing the QB. He is fast and he is lacking confidence that's all. Confidence will come back
Parsons/Clark/Cox is the future. LVE probably wont get another contract from Cowboys. Clark, if I remember correctly, is a natural MLB. They do different things. This defense will be good as long as Quinn is herr. If Q leaves, then it depends on the players' mindset, the new coach's mindset, style, scheme, and how they adapt to change.
LVH doesnt attack like he used to. He plays protecting his neck a lil too much. He had a fine year, but it's time to look beyond him. He gets taken out of too many plays he should be in on. He guesses at a RBs cut and misses out completely
Bro cox is 6 foot 3 almost 240 .. I don’t think his weight or size is the problem .. and he showed against giants he can fly to the ball !! Cox is getting screwed outta playing time I think
I think it’s just pretty clear that Cox isn’t ready to play. They feel confident in Damone Clark. Simple as that. Imo they’d play Gifford over Cox as well.
We have to run the ball but more importantly we have to stop the run Clark is that run stuffer that we need so we can put them situations to make this whole defense better
Cox isn't better this year than any LB that is playing regular snaps on defense or special teams. People need to face that fact. That is why he isn't playing. Everyone made Cox out to be a future hall of famer last year. The coaches know what is best and who is better and clearly NFL coaches for the Cowboys who know more than any fan/media/youtuber on the planet think LVE is the best LB on the team not names Parsons, they also think Clark is better than Cox, they also think Gifford is better than Cox. If he were better than Gifford on special teams he would be playing and to be fair if he were he might also be getting defensive snaps in certain packages. I love how everyone threw dirt on Gifford this spring and summer but guess what he made the team and the hobo from Liberty didn't even make the practice squad just like I said he would. Every team needs a guy like Gifford who is a special teams ace and can give some decent snaps on defense in a pinch. Don't get me wrong Gifford isn't the answer at LB and next year Cox could possibly pass him up on special teams and make the game day roster then get a bunch of snaps at LB on different packages or even become a starter. If he was better this year he would be playing there is no agenda or question about it. Clark did a pretty good job and will be a very good backup once Barr returns and takes his spot back and he will there is absolutely no question about it. Clark is clearly in the top 4 best LB's - Parsons, LVE, Barr, and then Clark. He will replace Barr next year though if he stays healthy. It looks to me like LVE is the MIKE and Barr is the SAM possibly vice versa in most packages and they are using Kearse/Wilson as the WILL some of the time. Soooo.... it could be that LB's aren't the people who are stopping Cox's progress it could be Kearse and Wilson. I think they should keep doing what they are doing on defense though because they have been very stingy about giving up points overall this year and no changes should be made unless it is due to injury.
Damone Clark is more violent and hard-charging than #14. Jabril Cox, who i liked as a draft pick bargain, is not hustling to the action & i see him tipping alot of the time assisting tackles. Clark's style of play is a good comparison to the way Ryan Shazier went after ball carriers before his serious back injury left him lame, for life. Ironically he had the same spinal fusion surgery as Clark did and in hopes of making a full recovery of playing high level football again. Shazier's procedure was a success for him to walk upright but isn't going to play with a degenerative backbone condition. Damone Clark on the other hand looks like the surgery was 100% optimal for the possibility of being as dominant for Dallas as he was as a standout for LSU. Hopefully he's another hidden gem like drafting a hurt Jaylon Smith from Notre Dame the same year of a major catastrophic injury & experimental arthroscopic surgery. Cross your fingers, Cowboys fans.
Hopefully the Cowboys will find a way to play both of these young talented players!!
Clark is better for run stop support, while Cox is better for coverage. We need help in run stop support! We have good pass coverage!
Exactly. Clark is really good at stopping the run, he always has been. Right now the Cowboys are doing everything well defensively except stopping the run so Clark is the obvious choice right now
Outstanding observation that upon reflection, rings true. And I think that’s why Cox can’t get on the field.
I want both if they cheap
Yes, Up the middle support is crucial for Dallas 💯💯💪🙏
I really believe cox will take over that kearse role and Clark will take over lve job. Lve is done
El Mundo es Vaquero!!
Y la estrella brillará en lo Alto!!

He had neck surgery. Surprised playing this early.

I haven’t heard anyone talk about how both teams wore home jerseys
Asking the real questions.
Off topic but why did they pass on Asante Samuels JR and take Joseph🤔
#97 was blown off the line of scrimmage .
The boys have very good depth at LB currently. Anthony Barr. This is your reason. When he was added, everyone below him dropped a notch.
Do you not remember last year when jabril cox hauled butt and stopped him before the goal line and knocked Daniel Jones out?
I want Jabril Cox to start in the upcoming game against the Giants so that he can knock out Daniel Jones again.
LVE will make some plays, but he won't take on blocks and tries to jump around blocks. Love seeing Clark already contributing.
Tbh Foots the play where you said he should have filled the gap, that was actually LVE’s job. But what does he do? Classic LVE of course, waits for the o line to push and gets washed away like always.

Idk why they don’t have both of them on the field together give LVE a sideline view ,imo…
It’s gotta be Cox confidence when he on the field
Relax everyone Parsons Clarke & Cox by next season all 3 will be sharing the field together. Cox Clarke take ova for LVE & Barr
Clark has great eyes for the position not many do and he does glad Philly took Dean and not Clark we got a steal

Cox should play the Kearse role, big nickel safety
Has Cox recovered fully.🤔
Jabril simply just needs to get bigger. SIMPLE
Any linebacker linebacker that CAN NOT beat out LVE is a big issue!
LSU boys really running the nfl
Did he have a set back with his knee? He was limping around still in preseason 🤔🤔🤔
No one wants to say it, but Jabril Cox has just not lived up to the potential we all saw in him when he was drafted. Not the first, won't be the last. On the flipside, Damone Clark wasn't even supposed to see the field last season, and he played really, really well.
Jabril is a hybrid safety
Wouldn’t Jabril be better suited for Jayron’s Kearse ‘s position ?
Answer to your question....
Jabril Cox is the Connor Williams of the LB position group.
He does a lot of things well, ( technically ). But he's not a very physically punishing football player.. at the end of the day The More Physical Team is usually going to Win the game
The Cowboys are making a concerted effort to Play a much more physical brand of Football... Players like Connor Williams, Leighton Vander Esh, Jaylon Smith, Jabril Cox, Jordan Lewis, Everson Griffin, Robert Quinn, Dontari Poe, Xavier Woods, Antuan Woods, Amari Cooper, Anthony Brown, Luke Gifford, and many others... Are just not built for a physical play style...
Players like Jay Ratliff, Dez Bryant, Donovan Wilson, Ezekiel Elliott, Zack Martin, Micah Parsons, Erik Williams, Michael Irvin, Ed Too Tall Jones, Randy White, Larry Cole, Emmitt Smith, Larry Allen, James Washington, Ken Norton Jr, Cliff Harris, Rayfield Wright, Jethro Pugh, Roger Staubach, Dak Prescott, Butch Johnson, Drew Pearson, Roy Williams ( SS ), Leonard Davis, Darren Woodson. Harvey Martin. Nate Newton.
These players brought a element of toughness, intimidation or fear to the game that skill cannot overcome.
I guess Romo's fumbled snap, Dez Bryant's no catch catch and Dak's play-off slide is not enough to convince people about this team. 🤦🏾♂️
I would like to see the linebackers play closer to the line they're playing too deep..Stack the line!
Don't sleep on Cox! Cox is the 2ns best LB on the entire roster. Cox is coming back from a horrible knee injury. Cox should be rushing the QB. He is fast and he is lacking confidence that's all. Confidence will come back
Cox had a few special team flags
Parsons/Clark/Cox is the future. LVE probably wont get another contract from Cowboys. Clark, if I remember correctly, is a natural MLB. They do different things. This defense will be good as long as Quinn is herr. If Q leaves, then it depends on the players' mindset, the new coach's mindset, style, scheme, and how they adapt to change.

I’m going to trust DQ on this one
That's why I said when they drafted Cox he should play SS
Clark didn’t get any preseason practice in. He has a better chance playing in game, than waiting for his turn to play. Cox is a shoe in regardless.
Bro cox is 6 foot 3 almost 240 .. I don’t think his weight or size is the problem .. and he showed against giants he can fly to the ball !! Cox is getting screwed outta playing time I think
It eventually comes down to brain power when to athletes are similar.
Forget what you talkin'. There's ONLY ONE NATION and That's THE RAIDER☠️NATION !!!!
Cox gonna take Kearse spot
clark need to start over LVE
LVE always still 5 yards off the LOS by the time the rb crosses the LOS😂
Keeping his stock down until they kno they need him
LVE has not been good all season! Avoiding contact while taking bad angles! To me officially a big ok Bust!Terrible! The weak link of the defense!
Not the same player since the neck injury
Where was Sam Williams blast game
Inactive with a knee
Clark and LVE played much better together which will free Micah up even more....
I think it’s just pretty clear that Cox isn’t ready to play. They feel confident in Damone Clark. Simple as that. Imo they’d play Gifford over Cox as well.
33 will be the real mlb I love LVE but he is a weakside backer we need a lb that attacks the run instead of getting pounded
We have to run the ball but more importantly we have to stop the run Clark is that run stuffer that we need so we can put them situations to make this whole defense better
Players taking advantage of their playing time
Do people know Clark is faster than Micah?

Clark is clearly in the top 4 best LB's - Parsons, LVE, Barr, and then Clark. He will replace Barr next year though if he stays healthy. It looks to me like LVE is the MIKE and Barr is the SAM possibly vice versa in most packages and they are using Kearse/Wilson as the WILL some of the time. Soooo.... it could be that LB's aren't the people who are stopping Cox's progress it could be Kearse and Wilson. I think they should keep doing what they are doing on defense though because they have been very stingy about giving up points overall this year and no changes should be made unless it is due to injury.
It'll be Jabril Cox and Damone Clark manning the linebacker positions next year. LVE will be gone
LVE is barely average to me. He misses a lot of plays and he's not aggressive what so ever
Damone Clark is more violent and hard-charging than #14. Jabril Cox, who i liked as a draft pick bargain, is not hustling to the action & i see him tipping alot of the time assisting tackles. Clark's style of play is a good comparison to the way Ryan Shazier went after ball carriers before his serious back injury left him lame, for life. Ironically he had the same spinal fusion surgery as Clark did and in hopes of making a full recovery of playing high level football again. Shazier's procedure was a success for him to walk upright but isn't going to play with a degenerative backbone condition. Damone Clark on the other hand looks like the surgery was 100% optimal for the possibility of being as dominant for Dallas as he was as a standout for LSU. Hopefully he's another hidden gem like drafting a hurt Jaylon Smith from Notre Dame the same year of a major catastrophic injury & experimental arthroscopic surgery. Cross your fingers, Cowboys fans.
If you wanna know what's going on in the building just watch Mike Fisher he'll tell you
LVE looked a lil slow and still out of position at times in the game.
I don’t trust nobody but God...✝️ Go Cowboys
Cox is still recovering from an ACL injury! Not 100% yet.
Lve needs to go fr
Cox and Tolbert haven't made the team play them it's on them.
Jabril could've atleast got some reps in the 4th so we can see how he was playing cause in preseaon he was shooting the gaps
They said Clark had 6 tk
Cox is being prepped for safety.
good, but clear up film.
Yea they make Luke Gifford's But
It shouldn't be Clark or cox, take out vanderesch(however it's spelled). Cox is not worse than vanderesch. Play cox to find out...
Cox needs another year from acl
