Dak looked like he had never seen a blitz before

[Dallas5xchamps]

I support Dak, and believe he is a good guy, but the last two weeks especially last night he looked like he had never seen a blitz before. On top of that, Dak looked scared last night. He has to stop with this predetermined mindset of throwing to Lamb before the play even develops. Speaking of Lamb, how do you slip and fall when you're not even running that fast to begin with? Whoever the Defensive back coaches are, they need to be let go immediately! Schotty, calls plays like it's our 1st pre-season game. On a positive note Porter looked pretty good (minus that P.I. call). He plays with an attitude and confidence that hopefully rubs off on the rest of the secondary. Q. Williams, played solid and Clarke had a sack!

It's the same look he's had every time he faces a stout blitzing defense or any serious pressure for the last 12 seasons

 

[Whirlwin]

This offense isn’t capable of a simple screenplay
This offense line, sucks,
And when you have a quarterback, that gets happy feet. The whole thing breaks down.
You’re not gonna have any quarterback that’s going to survive behind this offensive line

They need to borrow another team's defense to practice against. Practicing against our own makes them think everything they do will work.

Im a Dak fan but either he is done or something. Whatever it is I don't suspect it's good. Rooting for him but it doesn't look good.

Probably some truth to that.

 

[leeblair]

The word is out now.
If you pressure Dak he panics. If the game gets too big he panics.
Over the last ten years Dak has let the Cowboys down EVERY time they needed him to be the reason they were better.
Now the secret is known, and his struggles are just beginning.

Looks to me, we have many needing entrance into the School for the Blind and Visually Impaired....OL and coaches included.

so dak garrett is still fine?

Honestly, why is this even necessary to put this disclaimer out. We're talking football here. I don't care if he's Mother Teresa and I don't care if he's Jeffrey Dahmer. His job is to win football games. Part of the challenge is that this IMO questionable good guy image has provided him cover for some very questionable play. At this point whether he is a good guy or not is completely immaterial. He's not a good quarterback and it's time to move on

For anybody who was in the Game Thread, remember when I said "That look in Dak's eyes is not good?" Yup...

These continuous all out blitzes make it look like the entire team hasn't seen one with tons of guys running free. Dak needs to get the ball out quicker and more accurate and the coaching staff needs to run more plays to beat the blitz. Obviously they've been running slants but usually this is where you need to leverage the rbs more and taking advantage of 1:1 matchups in space. I know they tried some unsuccessful screen passes, but they were poorly designed and executed.

The team really needs more practice handling the blitz, because the blue print on stalling this offense is out there and until they make opposing teams pay they'll keep seeing it. Bad football right now from this offense.

No Crash......it's time for Justin Herbert, to get a QB you might like. Just trying to make you happy. All else doesn't matter. Missed tackles, slipping on your routes, missed blocks, ignoring blocks, dismissing 3rd down conversion rates, disregarding poor pass coverage, neglecting poor efforts, displaying very little fight or pride......none of those matter. Just want to make you happy.

Maybe Jerry can petition the NFL to make defenders count to 10 before rushing dak. He's dak good.

 

[NeverBeGameOver]

Dak desperately needs a run game to help him out. The defense needs it too to get a breather. We're probably the worst running team in the entire league.

A running game is really the only thing that can save this season. Simple as that

 

[Captain-Crash]

Run played called, "kill, kill, kiil" *stats mode activated*

 

[Mikexike]

Probably some truth to that.

We probably have the worst scout team.

Can dak just not kill a play? Dude outsmarts himself… i swear every time he kills a play its a tfl on the rb.

He should’ve been benched after that hit
