We hear this story multiple times a season. Teams calling out our plays before we run them. Par for the course.

One of the saddest aspects of this article was this quote by Devin White,

"Last year we learned they really weren't going to commit to the run game and the runs they did, they were going to try to get outside and not run into the interior."

Despite the numerous quotes from the Cowboys about establishing the run, Tampa knew (or, assumed) they wouldn't commit to running the ball.

There’s plenty blame to go around, BUT they held them to FGs for 3 quarters. 3 points won’t get it done in the NFL
It got it done though. Trust me, there isn't a player on the team I'm not trashing. Schultz and Brown were ok though. Maher? Holy cow dude......

Because just like you can put a suit on a pig he is still a pig, wonder boy has shown he will not run the ball, he can outsmart you by giving up the run for the pass.

Years and years ago there was a rumor that under Garrett, the team would run very few plays out of each formation. An opposing defense could effectively know the play just based on formation and pre snap motion. I wasn't sure about it and then Romo started calling out the team's plays before the snap with surprising accuracy.

I would not doubt if this is real and KM has continued the practice such that a team that has done its homework frequently knows the play before the snap.

He's a Garret discipline.....so, yes! He sucks!
Funny KM didn’t play a down, didn’t play one quarter of football but neither did qb 4 so the talent sucked a lot more. The total incompetence on the offense falls on the HC for the lack of preparation and lack of focus. It’s pretty obvious at this point the HC sucks.

Fournette averaged 9 yards a carry rushing to the left side. Thats video game stats right there
They held Tampa to a reasonable points total despite the offense making the defenses job more difficult.

When facing Tom Brady a defense is going to focus on pass defense over run defense.

That plan was working is the offense had just reached their average score from 2021 games.

They had more than 19 points last season in all but 3 games.

Well the fact that every we turn is an article suggesting we will run the ball more, it's safe to say our game plan is not top secret

Micah bailed out this bad defense twice. They let them get into fg position every drive before dak even threw a pick. The offense left them in a short field position only 1 time. Whole defense was bad except Micah
