The Real Problem

[CowboysExchange]

Schultz wiffed on like three blocks tonight. He's a liability in the red zone. Frfr

He made a couple of good catches but then dropped a couple of easy balls

If he makes the block on the 2 point conversion or the catch on 3rd down that hit him in the hands maybe we win.

He's just way too involved in our offense for a mediocre skilled player. Especially on critical downs.

I though he made a couple of good catches esp on the TD but we were just playing the raiders who are a .500 team at best imo.

I still think we need more dual RB formations and 4 wr sets. Esp on critical downs.

Today is the first time hes even come close to making a game winning catch for us.

Close means LOSING btw

I've been waiting on a Cowboy Te to catch a Game winning TD or make a game winning play for like 15 years. Lmao

Horseshoes and Hand Grenades and coulda woulda shouldas like ALWAYS

Zeke may not like it, but the big holes are not there and he is no fast enough to get to the edges, so his best asset is his power and breaking tackles

That maybe true but a lead blocker isn't going to help him unless he changes his running style. That's not going to happen over night even if he wants to.

Cohesion.

The offensive linemen aren't all on the same page due to injuries and substitutions. Successful offensive lines are composed of players who know what their fellow linemen would do under certain situations. They have practiced together long enough to be a single minded highly productive machine.

The return of the talented WR's will mean less time having to block.

The return of the entire starting D-line might help as well. DB's will be especially relieved to see them. It will reduce the time they have to cover.

Bengals ran for almost 150 on the Raiders last week. KC had 94 yards rushing on them 2 weeks ago and they have almost ZERO running game. The Cowboys offense is so soft, from skill position to trenches

A lead blocker can be a TE or a pulling guard, I haven’t seen it in a while since you know who left .

Jarwin isn’t any better either. They need to draft one or sign one.

I'd line up Cooper Lamb Gallop Wilson and Brown and go 5 wide and see if anybody can stop them. Js

I don’t disagree, but we are all counting on the return of all these players. My guess is we will lose others. Football is a tough sport.

Or play the tes we have less. Less is more

Every time we do this the opposition sends an extra pass rusher and Dak rushes to get it out quickly.

 

[FTWayne]

if our mvp quarterback would quit changing the run plays to pass would be a start, and then being so what accurate at least now and again.

This is on the head coach to pull Dak back some since Kellen appears to agree with Dak throwing it around.

we've never used this personell group. We've had success using 4 wrs but they very seldom use them either

But they do go 5 wide. They just have the TE and RB split out.

Yeah but our tes suck. That's the difference. That's one more db back the defense has to have on the field vs a linebacker btw

 

[FTWayne]

lmao now the tight ends costed us the games. who's next. um.. special teams?

The realists are the real problem

He don't have the juice

They don't ever win any games for us so yes that's losing the game.

You can't expect the same 2-3 guys to carry the scoring averages

That's what I love about this forum. A Te can get 40 passing snaps a game and never make a big play or score but its NEVER HIS FAULT WE LOST

I made this point earlier as well with regards to Dak changing the plays. That’s why I would just line up in a power formation and let them know the run is coming.

Now that Dak isn't running much anymore it makes that one rb back formation 5x more predictable. Js

That's one of the big differences in this team. When Dak doesn't run we're not as good

Running was always part of his strength. Now he very seldom ever runs. Instead he hangs on to the ball Too Long
