I wanted a change in philosophy/scheme and more creative coaching. Lets hope that is on the menu
.. you got ‘em.
These guys are going to need names on their jerseys just to learn their names.

Listen it isn't like the offense is going to be horrific next year. You still have a dominant Oline, a dominant RB and a qb that can move around. The seahawks made something like that work for years. I hope teams stack the box on us because unlike last year maybe we'll have a guy or two that can beat someone over the top.
Losing dez to me isn't a big deal. I think dak was much more successful when he spread the ball around and took what the defense gave him. Trying to "force to dez" or keep him involved in the offense didn't work for dak. Losing witten on the other hand hurts him more cause as most have pointed out witten was a security blanket. He was so good at sitting in those zones and making plays when he needed to.
At this point i think we have enough on offense. Enough to win if we can develop a top 5 defense. I don't think our defense is off btw. We can rush the passer, secondary has promise, and the LB's should be good and versatile. I think a WC would be adding earl thomas though.
With the way that we run the ball we are not going to be put into many third and longs. Running the ball also helps score in the RZ. Dak is going to have all day to throw the ball but it really all comes down to him. They are setting him up to succeed.
For my money the OL and RB corps is gorgeous.
Very excited to see how the team looks in August.
hey NEW WR coach and OLine coach and others.. hold out hope these guys have the ear of those guys and we can exact some change.. new toys can do thatThe best offensive changes would be firing Garrett and Linehan.
With Witten trending further and further downward, it’s not hard to be more explosive than what he became (and would’ve become as he sunk even lower in 2018). Went from being a guy who could do you 11 or 10 yards per catch to 9 and then down to 8. Was heading down towards 7, and at that point, you can put a pure fullback on the field and run swing passes to him and match that kind of average.Geoff Swain is many things. Explosive isn’t one of them.
And we added a guy with more than any of themJust about a 100% turnover for all the offensive skill positions the last 2-3 years. Gone Romo, Dez, Murray, Witten(?) and a handful of other starters and backups. Essentially only the OL remains.
Dude Swaim has 9 catches in 3 years.With Witten trending further and further downward, it’s not hard to be more explosive than what he became (and would’ve become as he sunk even lower in 2018).

If our TE group manages a hair better than 8-point-something per catch in 2018, they’ll officially be more explosive than Witten was last year. No guarantee they do that. But it wouldn’t be that hard, even without any lithe receiver types at the position.
I like that they drafted a QB to send a message to Dak. Hopefully this new QB will look good during preseason. Dak played well his rookie season with the extra pressure of Romo possibly coming back, i'm hoping for similar results again out of Dak.New energy is a good thing....when players get their big payday then semi retire, it's time to churn.
Yea, I hate it when players get complacent and only 50% effort just for a fat paycheck.I like that they drafted a QB to send a message to Dak. Hopefully this new QB will look good during preseason.

Blake Jarwin.Geoff Swain is many things. Explosive isn’t one of them.
Best part is the scheme and play calling has to change
