I absolutely give KM credit for a great game plan. I also think the game plan should be similar when Dak is playing. It's that simple.

It always has to be polar with you trolls. I believe Dak deserves criticism. That doesn't mean our coaches did him any favors. It must be convenient to live in such a simple word.
Like I have been saying for the last 6 years . . . Dak's limitations limit what Kellen can call.

Which is true or What you claim is true . . . A conspiracy against Dak:huh:

Or a telling sign that the coaches bottled it by not playing Dak in the preseason. Hence the lack of connection.
Its amazing they allowed Dak to play last year in the season Finale (So He could accumulate stats) with no regard to potential injury . . . but when it comes to playing in the preseason to shake off the dust . . . They sit him for precautionary reasons . . . Only to have Him injured within the 1st game of the season

Pretty Ironic . . . Meanwhile Cooper played a ton . . . Pretty Ironic. . . . Yes I really do think

Those near interceptions would of been sacks of Prescott. At least Rush throws the ball when pressured instead of waiting for a WR to be clearly wide open by 4 steps.
Rush is nowhere as good as Prescott

Yeah, Daks' limitations are the reason KM abandons the run. Makes total sense.

Dak locks on to his first read and doesn't go through his progressions quickly. He's horrible at reading a zone defense. Couple that with being horribly inaccurate which causes throws that are consistently behind their receivers, it's no mystery why Dak Prescott is having trouble finding receivers.
Also explains why Moore can not open up the Play Book. . . Its all elementary

Much like pitchers have certain pitches they throw better than others (ex. slider vs. change up), Dak has always struggled throwing the slant.

How many times have we seen him throw behind a receiver instead of hitting him in stride which is the entire point of a slant? Oftentimes this passes are caught but there’s hidden yardage that being missed due to the receiver having to break stride, leap or dive/slide to make a play on the ball.
Exactly which allows defenses to sit on every route

Walt Garrison: You play in the preseason because you have to get used to getting hit.

Because Dak isn't a very smart person, he lacks the ability to read a defense and go through his progressions. Whatever direction Dak's head is in when the ball is snapped is where he's going... if option #1 isn't open, he's just going to Shultz.
:hammer:
Pretty much

Could actually be part of the reason. If a DC knows Dak doesn't do well w/ certain type throws, then you scheme to stop the run and take away the throws Dak likes to make.

It was very telling that we ran the ball effectively on Sunday. Suddenly, the RB's were not getting met in the backfield as soon as they took the ball.

Oh, and BTW, Cincy's D was 5th against the run last year, so it's not like our running the ball was against the Falcons.

Dak's limitations screws up the flow of the game which cause the Cowboys to fall behind in games which causes Kellen to abandon the Run Game . . But in spite of Dak's obvious limitations The Cowboys had the #1 offense in the league

nd in case you haven't been paying attention . . . Daks limitations causes Him to Suck

Rush and KM need to show they can do it for a few more games.

Tampa was a one score game until late in the 3rd.

We could have and should have ran the ball.

That's great though, "Dak sucks, so we can't run." Durrrr.

Was it not telling watching Zeke go for 5ypc vs the Bucs?

The only way we were ever going to win post Denver vs cover 2/zone defenses was to run the ball.
