Blake Jarwin gets shoutout:
This morning on ESPN Get Up, Dan Orlovsky highlights the Cowboys use of Blake Jarwin. Not only does he contribute the Cowboys being able to have a run game, he’s not too shabby on the pass.
The @dallascowboys have a hidden gem in #2 Tight End @jaws_47 Blake Jarwin. Putting 2 Tight Ends on the field at the same time is dangerous for their run game-and he’s very difficult in the pass to matchup against.. @cowboysnation @bloggingtheboys @getupespn pic.twitter.com/jV8zI1YvuW

He was so under utilized at OSU and it’s a shame. We’re glad the Cowboys are using him to his full potential though.
Shane Illingworth film review:
Dustin Ragusa of Pistol Firing did an excellent job with this in depth look at Cowboy quarterback commit Shane Illingworth.
At Norco, Illingworth primarily lined up out of the shotgun. The main formations the Cougars utilized consisted of four wide receivers with one running back in the backfield with Illingworth, or three wide, a running back and a fullback/tight end lined up as an H-back or in the backfield. To provide some context on the footwork a quarterback uses out of shotgun formations see the picture below is from Dub Maddox’s book, Adapt or Die: Advancements to Accelerate Execution in Football’s Modern Passing Game. {Pistols Firing}
