A common complaint about Dak is he is horrible in the redzone

Rockport said:

Look at how he ranks in TD’s inside the 20. Better than both Mahomes and Rogers.

$40 million a year doesn't exactly go very far these days but I guess it must be the intangibles.

Unfortunately, not good at all.

I know. That's why I limited them to the "the's".

Let me be sure that I understand you. You don't acknowledge rushing tds? Are they more worthy if they're passing tds? What's wrong with the qb rushing for a td?

Somewhat. The OC usually gives 2 plays 1 running, 1 passing.. and they do a check with me, so when they get to the line, the QB calls the play, he then will call the blocking scheme, he will decide which side to run the ball, etc all based on the D. So it's not really changing the play - they do that some too but it is really about trying to set the play up for success, that is done by the Qb once he is at the line. Some exceptions - 2 minute drill, quick counts, etc.

What? OC usually calls one pass and one run. Could be two pass plays, could be two run plays. The QB reads the defense and chooses to run or pass based on the defense. The QB reads the defense and delegates who is the hot read, who is the safety valve. The QB positions the RB, TE, and WR before the play.

How do you know this is how Moore does things?

This is just passing, what about the TEAM red zone TD's. Look back to the 90's. Emmitt was relied upon to get most of the TD's.
I know those come more from inside the 5. But also look at the play calls.

Dallas as a TEAM needs to improve. I don't care how they get the TD, just get in the end zone.

I agree, they should use , Zeke and Dak legs more to get TDs in RZ.
There is 50:50 on the QB and WRs , but I personally think having a big target like Jarwin will help this year. This is where we miss Dez, in my opinion. None of Our WRs can go and get and hold on to the ball like that.

You're right, Moore could be the ONLY OC not to do it this way, that is possible. But my hunch is, he follows the same operating procedure every team in the NFL uses.

Why do you think they call out the Mike every single play, it's not a quiz to see if the QB knows who the Mike is. Now there are times the first play call doesn't' need to be changed so they just run the play. There are other times, the OC might say " run this play" so the QB runs that play regardless of the D. But for the most part, there are 2 plays called and the QB will make the decision once they see the D. But if you want to think they treat Dak like a pop warner QB and he just tells the team what the coach said, that's fine with me.. it would actually mean Dak is one stupid QB and if that is your argument here, I won't fight you over it. It's just not how I see Dak or how I think they operate.

That's bull**** and you know it. They don't run an RPO every single play.

Is that he's horrible in the redzone. Look at these stats and who he's ahead of.

Who is reading the defense, calling the audible, and ultimately choosing the actual play to execute?

OC gives choices, QB reads defense, chooses one of the two (usually) plays the OC recommends. Dak chooses the play actually executed.

If, in his fifth year, Dak doesn't have the ability to change the play based on what he is seeing from the defense..... Well, that's not good.
