It was a great play but I think people losing their minds over it a little. That TD was an inch away from a tackle for loss.
I agree with Moore - running outside is auxiliary, although we should find ways to do it more. need teams to respect our use of the entire field a bit more.
Daks calf booboo...lolWhat happened to the pre-snap motion fake reverses/end arounds Etc?
The last time we used a "draw" play was when we heard Dak say "Ross, Ross", as in painter Bob Ross, and the announcers were laughing so hard.There is so many things we could do to improve our run game but taking the 1960s approach aint it.
If you’re going to run right up the middle then use a little Jet Motion every other time. Get the linebackers thinking it could go sideways.
These ego running plays are just getting stuff.
Do we even use draws and counters? I can’t remember the last time I saw a Draw.
Remember that play we used to use with Romo and Demarco? That draw play that was kind of odd looking?
Right now it’s just a static run game.
This quote underscores just how little this man understands about running the football. Running outside in the NFL is almost NEVER about speed or outrunning the defenders to get yards.. It's about outflanking them with your receivers and tight ends and pulling your guards and maybe the center to lead the way for your backs. Every team in the NFL has at least one 4.4 linebacker and several sub 4.4 DBs.. so no you're not going to outrun them many times.. But you CAN seal them off from your ball carrier if your tight ends and receivers execute blocks. On Pollard's 58 yarder we pulled both Tyron and Biadasz who both got a hat on a hat and Noah Brown (or was that Lamb?) kicked his man out .. It was not speed that created that opening.. It was the fact that we got blocking on the outside. The Saints had two defenders with outside leverage so Pollard had to cut it back in and when he did it created a lane for Biadasz to kick on guy out and Brown stayed on the other one. Meanwhile Tyron turned back in and wiped out the remaining inside pursuer. That created the alley that Pollard hit at 100 mph and clearly surprised #43 by how quick he came out the other side.. The point being, that play wasn't made because we outran the defense.. It was made because we blocked. We definitely need to be doing more of that. So if that play proved to Moore that we can then I'm all for it!!!!
Well you said Martin should be playing RT and Steel RG so excuse us if we don't take you seriously.There is so many things we could do to improve our run game but taking the 1960s approach aint it.

What happened to the old Zone Stretch? That was a DEADLY play for us in 2014.
