Will fresh-shaven Kellen use an aerial scheme? What then of Zeke?

You, yes you out there, by your fireplaces or the burning-tire blockades in Gary, Ind.,
HOW WILL LIL' KELLEN BE AN OFFENSIVE GENIUS?
By prying every ounce of passing skills from an awful passer Dak or going to a run-dominated offense?
Ga'head, Kellen , let us in on your stairway to playoff heaven, you teacher's pet.

He's also the best blocking RB in the NFL.
According to PFF he can't do squat. Maybe a case of tunnel vision brought on by studying Mr. Goodells picture a little too long. I wonder what that picture says to them when it's turned around backwards?

you probably saw what the 2019 O looks like the 2nd half of last year.

basically Dak's attempts went from 30 to 35 and Zeke saw more touches too, basically they played faster

don't expect radical change, but they need a viable RB to spell Zeke, and a real LG/C like real bad

how many teams have led the nfl in rushing and won a super bowl?
it is very hard to maintain the most carries in the NFL and continue at a high level
it takes 7/+ real good OL, (or 5 of 'em and a ton of luck)

by what standard other than your opinion is Dak an "awful passer"?

before answering consider this Dak led a 3-5 team to 10-6 record to win the NFCE (for the 2nd time in 3 years) and did so with a 70%+ comp rate while taking 28 sacks

that's not a bad audition for 9 digit contract

Blimey!
Dak's inaccuracy eludes you?

I've no clue if Garrett will impose his somewhat evolving system onto Moore, or if Moore will have free reign. All the pieces are there for a successful offense - especially with the return of Travis Frederick and hopefully a TE1 via draft, FA or Blake Jarwin making The Leap. They need to add a RB, a T, and a slot WR for depth.

Kellen is the all time winningest QB in college history....why, surely not his physical abilities. He played in a scheme where they used misdirection and timing.

He had 95 targets and 77 receptions this year. Most on the team in both categories. That’s plenty

The type of targets he got were a joke though.

They weren't using him as a receiver. They were using him as a check down guy.

I think Dallas will look to continue to maintain a balance within the offense and Zeke will be just as important but there are things they can do within the passing game to help open up the run game more so than they did this past season.

He’s still a RB. They aren’t going to frequently pull him out of the backfield to use as a wideout. His yards per reception are comparable with what the Steelers get from Laveon Bell.

They don't have to pull him out of the backfield and line him up at receiver. I don't want him lined up at receiver very often.

There are plenty of designed routes they can use out of the backfield.

He was just a check down option in this offense. Nothing more.

The question was about using him more, not differently, but even so, Zeke actually did line up as a wideout a number of times, and there were plenty of other times he was used on screens, or plays designed to take the DBs deep in coverage to open up underneath opportunities for Zeke to catch the ball and make something happen. Sure there were a lot of check downs too, but that goes with the territory for any RB.
