Seriously. Too damn conservative early on. Hopefully, MM helps Moore create a better gameplan for the first 10-15 snaps or so.

It's like the offense had to rally in the 2nd and the 4th due to a whack start to both halves.
Plus look at games like the Vikings, last drive for Dak and the offense before half gave them the lead...... Vikings get the ball back and right before half go right down the field and score a TD. Vikings get the ball back after half and goes right down the field and scores another TD. Think about that, Dak gets the lead and next time he has a chance he is almost down 2 TDs.

McCarthy will adjust and will plan for each team separately. None of this same old same old with every team

I think it's hilarious that some fancy graphic in the first post is supposed to convince everyone that garbage time is a concept that is universally agreed upon as a 'down by 21 points' metric. So all Defensive Coordinators got together one time and just agreed on this? Did one say to the group: "hey, if we're up by just 20 points, I just don't feel comfortable going into a prevent just yet...I need that extra point before I decide to back the dogs off a bit."

Silly me, but I sort of always considered it garbage time when a defense relaxed how they are defending a team to milk a little more clock - and not all teams need that big of a lead to do it.. They allow ball movement between the 20s. It's a real thing. Anyone who has watched enough football knows how many yards are basically 'gifted' to the other team in these situations.

Don't you guys hate when people try to boost up how well a quarterback played especially when they have all those "garbage time" yards in them? Let's see what it looks like if you take out all of those garbage time yards out of it.

My question is this, how many more yards would Dak have had if, the Cowboys hadn't blown out the Giants, Commanders, Dolphins, Rams, and Commanders? The Cowboys had more garbage time wins than losses.

Of that list, only Mahomes, Jackson and Russell made the playoffs. The other QB's led their teams to the following record:

Tampa Bay 7-9

Dallas 8-8

San Diego 5-11

LA Rams 9-7

Atlanta 7-9


So in other words a pass happy QB leads to 63% failure to make the playoffs based on your list.

So you came to that conclusion even though 3 of those guys are in pass happy offenses? Four of them had winning records. Four of them didn't.......

Plus he forgets Mahomes missed multiple games with injury...... you would think even the slowest of people should understand that would bring the total yards passing down for him. Oh well, it's clear no matter what proof we show we will have clowns that just hate Dak personally and will refuse to look at facts.
EXACTLY!

My question is this, how many more yards would Dak have had if, the Cowboys hadn't blown out the Giants, Commanders, Dolphins, Rams, and Commanders? The Cowboys had more garbage time wins than losses.
How many yards would anyone have had had they not blown out inferior opponents? Mind you in the scheme of things.....Cowboys only had 8 wins so they weren't much better than those teams. They all missed the playoffs.

If folks researched, like your educated self does, they would find out most of Daks yards came in the 2nd and 3rd quarters......... not the 4th quarter and "garbage time"
Thank you. But you can't tell them anything........
