"Booker quietly put another piece of solid tape in the loss to the Chargers, even while the offense stalled out around him. Dallas allowed just nine total pressures all game and one sack on 30 dropbacks, compared with the 14 pressures surrendered by Los Angeles, which tells you the Cowboys' protection wasn't the primary reason the game got away from them. On the field, Booker's night looked like what we've come to expect, a mostly clean performance."
"Ezeiruaku's night against the Chargers was more about flashes than full-game impact, and it came inside a defensive performance that never really got Justin Herbert uncomfortable, which is most concerning. On the stat sheet he finished with two combined tackles, one QB hit, zero sacks, zero tackles for loss and no takeaways, contributing one of Dallas' five quarterback hits in a game where the defense failed to register a single sack."
Booker played 58 snaps with 38 pass blocks, one pressure allowed, one sack, and zero penalties, delivering a mostly clean performance despite an overall stalled offense. Dallas allowed nine total pressures and one sack on 30 dropbacks, compared with Los Angeles' 14 pressures, indicating protection was not the primary issue. Booker and Cooper Beebe reasonably kept A and B gaps from collapsing, and Booker projects as a long-term answer at right guard despite being charged with the game's lone sack. Ezeiruaku, in 39 snaps, recorded two combined tackles, one QB hit, three pressures, no sacks, no tackles for loss, and no takeaways, offering flashes but limited full-game impact as the defense failed to register a sack.
