Well since it's silly season...
Let me take this time to introduce the never heard of, never used, quintuple option.
:huh:

We line up in the wildcat. Pollard takes the direct snap as option one. Option two, a hand- to Zeke. Option three, a pitch to Dak. Option four a pass to Lamb. Lamb can now lateral or throw the ball back to another player. Boom, quintuple option...touchdown Cowboys.

:flagwave:

I wouldn't mind seeing it. I think it has the potential to yield some big yardage. This offense is not some big Juggernaut that's just going to methodically march down the field, we're going to need a little creativity to keep defenses honest. We really need Kellen Moore to have a pro bowl season as a play caller.

And since all this will be executed in snail like speed (like several times in the final phase of the regular season last year) it won't matter anyway since any opponent will have enough time to read the play and stop it with 5 yards loss for Dallas.

It's what they call Cowboys Football in games 7 to 17 of the 21 reg season.

Dak as a designed running option? What is this 2016? You are clearly not in the room when they discuss what is on and what is off the table.

to all the moronic responses as if this is about Dak just let it go..we should use any and all schemes available from time to time wont be many of these but im guessing 5 a year as a surprise when its used etc..they already have the the double end around with zeke taking a deep hand off run one way pollard comes for the other side and zeke decided to pitch to pollard. That nice successful paly when used seldomly.. they definitely need to run that 2 back set with pollard and zeke a lot more and run many plays off it..

we will throw plenty, we have players to run anything the entire reactions over the loss of AC and Wlson is way overblown..i hope defenses think this way and don't respect our pass we will tear them up[ ..Lambs # 1 and used in motion/bunches/ and moved all over the line with the right play calls even before Gallup gets back is what most NFL: teams run..as long as you have one primary WR you have options Ie many times all we had was Irvin or Dez and bunch of other guys worked out fine..

strong run game with PA passes and 12 personal will move the ball just fine until, Gallup gets back and the new guys work the way through the play book.

You must be watching the wrong football team. Cowboys had the #1 offense in the NFL last year in both points and yards.

Let's go 0 wideouts wishbone jumbo no TEs and go quad option with upback or three guys to hand or toss to. That is the future of football right there.

There doesn't seem to be much excitement or an optimistic feeling about this offense by some. It's kinda early to give up on the season, no?
