Yes...there's a blueprint to beat every team in the league. It's just a matter of what teams have the players and coaches to use the blueprint to beat them. Every team knows that their chances of beating the Cowboys is much better if they stop the run. Do that and then be physical with the WRs will disrupt Dak and the rhythm of the passing game.

The Broncos, Raiders, Saints, and KC knew what to do. The Saints did not have an offense to make them pay though. But just because there is a blueprint doesn't mean the Cowboys still couldn't win. Every game is a battle of ups and downs. Even despite all the offensive struggles, the offense still had a chance to beat KC and Raiders but they didn't make the plays when it mattered.

Not every game is going to be a pretty offensive performance. You still have to figure out how to grind out a win when an opponent comes out with a great gameplan against you.

thanks cool fan makes sense

Blueprint…

Hobble the QB and RB
Take out both starting receivers
Switch out the offensive tackles midseason and add a new guard to make it more challenging.

Watch the offense lose its entire first half’s confidence and rhythm as all that happens at once for a few games.

Ouch....that does sound painful

Yes, there is a blue print. Its has been obvious and everyone has been doing it since the Vikings game. Load up the middle of the line and you can easily stop Zeke and the run game. He does not have the speed to run outside, so its a piece of cake.

cowboy roy---do you think during the bye the thinking heads will realize keeping Zeke at # 1 RB is losing proposition and look to establish Pollard?

As anyone whose been in the construction industry knows; blueprints are only as good as the expertise and execution of those who understand them. So basically it’s a day to day, week to week occurrence.

Not a chance. For one I think Zeke lies about his injuries and is too greedy to give Pollard his. He knows he may not get his job back if he allows Pollard too much showtime.

But what bye week are you talking about?

Well one thing I've notice about our offense is that they live on letting the play develop.. Nothing quick.. no slants.. etc. This allows defenses to quickly attack the QB.

yes and to re-adjust....when we had truly dominant O line the slow developing plays worked often because first and second level got blocked....now they just crash on us......runs and quick throws to outside

can open that up...and as you mentioned...more slants....maybe re-install mr Yellow flag himself Williams at LG ( hoping for the best of course )....but Dak is not looking healthy....its still his calf or something

because he worked so hard to develop better mechanics and it has shown with no doubt....but when health wanes the mechanics that dont come second nature to you are first to slip and it is showing

watched every play against Saints at least 3 times........Dak several times threw off wrong foot as use to be his nature until he worked so hard past 3 years to overcome...but....the worst of it.....No MOre PLats

rest of season...hahahaha....everyone is cheering

The Cowboys seem to have a blueprint on how to screw up a great season. They had a stranglehold on the NFC East a few weeks ago and now Washington has a chance to climb within one game of us next week.

The blueprint is bs.

It just happens to coincide with Dak’s calf strain.

Forcing a less than 100% QB to beat you is not a blue print, it’s common sense.

There's a blue print on every team in the league.
And all rookie quarterbacks get a blue print on them. Everyone’s all giddy about Mac Jones right now. Same with Dak in ‘16.

enjoy it now Jonesy

One game..they have a chance at taking over the division....the WFT is playing inspired and motivating football....winning 4 in a row and now taking on a Cowboy Team that has lost its MOJO.... The Division is on the line as the Cowboys play WFT, Giants and WFT team again....3 division games in a row and twice to the Commanders....

The NFC East is up for the taking....the question is what Team wants it more....

The blueprint is if you hold Dallas to less than 30 points then you're probably going to win. There's been the occasional exception, but that's the rule.

It's been that way for years. Look it up if you don't believe it.

fellow cowboy zoners----- watched games as you all have watched also...listened to some commentators

( be careful who you listen to )....but after watching again similar issue we have of not being able to

run block well....makes us one dimensional...and Dak appears not fully recovered from calf

his mechanics have slipped.....can we rest and re-adjust in this 10 day mini bye to be the team we watched

when we went 6-1????

thank you fellow zoners

I think there is a blueprint.

Our run game is complete **** with Zeke and all of his injuries and it appears teams aren’t respecting it at all. Without a run game, defenses can pin their ears back, play press & come after the QB.

Solution: Start Pollard!

NO NO NO YOU HAVE COMMENTATORS and fans say how we need to establish the run, run Zeke and he only gets 2 yards every play which makes you load the box to stop the run or pass, COWBOYS o line is suspect at pass blocking, while everyone thinks they're so great

Tampa exposed the blueprint to beat KC in the Super Bowl last year. KC's offense still hasn't recovered, they've been in a funk for two months now. Defenses are giving them more Cover 2 looks to take away the big plays downfield. KC also can't/won't run the ball, similar to the Cowboys since this slump started.
