It doesn't, nor will it, IMO.

Dallas wants to lean on having the identity of a physical running game.

Cool.

Getting Travis Frederick back next season will be much needed here, I can't overstate how much his absence hurt the OL this season. Having a run first team means you will hand the ball off more often on first down than other teams do or analytics say is wise. It also means staying with the call sometimes even when the opposing defense stacks the box expecting #21 to get the hand off.

But it also means becoming more flexible in those situations.

If an opposing defense is continuously stacking the box and daring the Cowboys to beat them with the passing game, or if their front seven is simply a bad match-up for our OL, we need to be able to go through the air with success.

That's on the coaches and players.


Versus what the Rams did on third down on the final possession of the game.

Put the QB on the move with a rollout on third down with the option to pass or run.

Exactly right.

Getting Frederick back will be a huge boost.

BINGO on how the Rams handled that.

Both the Rams and the Chiefs use lots of misdirection.

For the Cowboys misdirection seemed like a play where Linehan was holding his nose.

It’s like you wanna lay one on him and then take him to a Dave n Busters

Exactly.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

You just got to laugh at all the homerism. Anything to defend this franchise.

 

[ShortRound]

A cold blooded killer.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

And some wonder why we should give the FO the benefit of the doubt. Because we have seen all of it before.

Have to agree that anyone denouncing Moore’s capabilities as an OC is just spewing crap at this point.

He’s never done it, so you literally have no clue.

Of course, he could suck, but he could be the second coming of Bill Walsh.

If Moore is the OC, in reality Garrett will be the real OC. Is this what Dallas really needs? Rehash the failed Garrett calling plays experiment?

That's making an assumption. Maybe a move to Moore is a step away from Garrett's offense. Don't pretend to know anything because the truth is, you don't know **** (with all due respect).

So Garrett won’t be calling the plays? That’s what the reports are insinuating.

I have no idea, bro and neither do any of these *******s claiming to know.

 

[jobberone]

To me the epitome of the Linehan offense was the 4th & 1 vs. the Rams where the Rams defense shifted so there a huge mass of bodies exactly where Elliott was suppose to go... And of course Elliott went to that spot of the LOS and the play failed miserably.

That kind of thing simply can't happen.

Humiliating. 1/2 of that is Dak's responsibility IMO.

Revisit the thread when it happens. It’s the logical thing when Moore is promoted to OC.

Maybe he will, maybe not.

This early in the Dallas Cowboys off-season, there's no need to make a firm decision about who is calling offensive plays.

Make the hires official and then start meeting about the direction of the offense in 2019.

If Kellen Moore is promoted to offensive coordinator, Jason Garrett could let him call plays in OTAs and some pre-season games to see how it goes before making a determination.

This is true...
I'd root for you and Charlize also! Is Megan still single?

Naw I think she’s got a couple of kids and her dude is cool though. That 90210 guy.

 

[LocimusPrime]

What are they gonna give birth to? An angel?

 

[LocimusPrime]

I think Kellen Moore kinda looks like rowdy

 

[LocimusPrime]

Yo this guy reminds me of you coach. @Ranching

The problem with this offense isn't as much scheme as it is philosophy. We DO need to incorporate more horizontal flow to compliment the vertical threat. I think that's a given but, what really needs to happen with this offense is more pres-snap movement. For two reasons. The first is that it makes the defense declare their coverage (zone or man) pre-snap (making things much more simplified for Dak, who struggles to quickly read the defense post-snap and, consequently resulting in holding the ball longer and taking more sacks). The second is that it forces the defense to think and communicate more (pre-snap) thus making their job harder. The reason so many opposing players have come out and said that this offense is so predictable is because the lack of pre-snap movement does half of their job for them. When they don't have to think, they can just "go out and play".

Yo bro...let it go man.
