I dont care.

Hopefully Jerry doesnt say to the staff.....I'm paying Prescott 35m, and Elliott 15, so we need to pass 70% of the time.

I will say that this team got away from the run way too quickly last year. When this group had success, it was all about the run setting up the pass.

We'll use Dak, but "lean" on a fat Zeke. He can take it and that formula is what made Dak's 2016 success possible.

You take what the defense gives you. I hope we are done with the era of Garrett where he relied almost entirely on execution instead of giving his players the best chance to succeed. The Cowboys offense has the weapons to attack through the air or on the ground.

Both.

Exploit the weakness of the defense.

Don’t run into a brick wall, especially on 1st down, don’t hand off when a QB sneak is wide open on 3rd and1( no one over the center). Play smart offensive football! Take advantage of mismatches. Something we did not do enough of with Garrett( just beat your man!).

With McCarthy and his staff, it's already been established that talent will decide what this team leans upon to formulate their schemes. Having said that, balance between the offense's passing and running games are normally considered the ideal formula for success. Let's see what MM and his offensive staff can do to maximize their talent. A highly successful draft should help to maximize their chances to succeed.

Dak is considered to still have considerable upside as a QB and Zeke is still rocking along extremely well as the Cowboys' RB. Hopefully, that scenario should bode well for the Dallas offense in 2020. It's no secret that the 2020 draft uncovered some excellent acquisitions on both sides of the ball this year. Let's see where that takes us within a new season that promises significant change, both offensively and defensively.

I posted almost the exact same thing above. This is not Rocket Science, well it was with Garrett. Hopefully, this will change with Big Mike.

Lean on Zeke, establish the run, opens up the pass
Lean on Dak, establish the pass, opens up the run

It will need to be both. Depends on the defenses, they stack the box, aerial attack, they back off the box, to defend the pass, bulldoze with the run.
