We don't need a WR , we need a new scheme!

Forget about wasting draft capital for a player. The person that needs to be traded or gone is Kellen Moore. Season after season the offense struggles with basic game plans. Kellen Moore seems to get worse every season.

We've made the trade for Coop we've drafted players, yet we still struggle to score and have a basic attack on offense. One that actually makes a defensive coordinator have nightmares. Please give your thoughts...

I think the OP is right. Our slow starts and no starts started when Moore took over in 2019. Dallas used to have a better gameplan. Our run game is boring. Whatever happened to the delayed draw? Zeke would be the perfect back for that. Do a few more toss plays. That's where pollard comes in. Enough with this right up the middle 3 yards and a cloud of dust.

I don’t necessarily disagree about Moore, but just last year we were the # 1 offense in the league from both a yardage and scoring standpoint.

That stuff doesn't matter if your QB isn't skilled. You're limited in the scheme's you can do.

How do we know the scheme that we use right now isn't getting the best out of what we have?

You can only hide so much.

Again comment on what the thread asked no need to call your buddies to bring down another non Dak thread ....but im sure both sides are forming the lines already..sorry OP your thread has been Dak'ed

This scheme has worked at a high level here for years under multiple QB's at the helm with different play callers as well. The biggest issue is with play selection with certain personnel. We ain't passing the ball much when CD takes a breather, you darn near know it's a run. There is very little mis direction, too many plays are alignment or personnel based and it tips their hand to the defense way too much. They have got to get better at running multiple plays out of the same formations and personnel groups and setting up the defense to think 1 thing is coming and bam hit them where they are soft. If CD is going to be the #1 guy then he needs to be moved all over the formation to force more 1 on 1 matchups.

If you want to talk WRs then let's talk WRs, but when you bring "scheme" into then you must acknowledge the person the scheme is built around. The QB.

A few will say it was all garbage time stats. Can't please the whole crowd here folks. Just have to agree to disagree and move on.

KM's main issue is situational play calling more so than his scheme. It was like that with JG also. For example, running backs will rip off 7 yards, 3 times in a row then KM will call a pass from an empty shot gun formation. Or call a stupid trick play when one isn't needed. This is the biggest problem with KM.

Denver showed you could stop our run with a base pass defense or a cover 2. No team is going to be successful with 3 receivers vs 7 defenders. Once the blueprint was made the rest is history. Joe Montana would have struggled to throw the ball.

I agree with you, OP. When you watch the flow and design of our offense and compare it to the Rams or the Bills or even the Dolphins, the differences are glaring.

The teams mentioned above get their playmakers the ball ON THE MOVE and in a position to attack the defense.

The Cowboys are notoriously fixated on curls and comebacks or stop routes which require the catcher to halt all momentum and turn to face the QB.

The scheme hasn’t been very good, but neither has our receivers. Execution has been a big part of the problem. We’ve seen a number of drops and receivers aren’t getting open.

We do need some plays that are designed to beat specific teams. Our pass routes are too similar week in and week out to be custom plays.

With that said you MUST have a WR that puts fear into safeties. If you don’t have a guy like that their first step is forward and will kill us in the run game and create havoc in those short to medium routes over the middle. Fear prevents them from reacting quickly.
