Twitter: Baldy Breakdowns the 68 yard Dak to Pollard touchdown

Hmmmm. Not sure I buy that. Didn't they occupy the safety with another receiver? Pollard just torched a LB like he should. Dak did keep his eyes left til the last minute but I'm not sure that had much bearing as the safety was well outta the way already. Dak did throw quickly once pivoting which wouldn't have given the defender much warning anyway. He threw a very nice ball as well. Hitting a guy in stride allows for big plays like this.

Oh, he definitely looked him off on that play, and it was very nice to see! I wanna see more of that, and less staring down the receiver.

Pollard against 90% LBs is a mismatch in coverage. Its a travesty this matchup hasn't been exploited more over the years.

Dak's eyes moved the S into the other half of the field.

Baldy back on the bandwagon.

It was a great play call and execution by everyone. Dak looked off the defenders and moved them out of the way. Peterson took the TE. Pollard put a great double move on the the LB. Dak dropped a dime to Pollard.

The touch on that ball might be the best I've ever seen from Dak. That was a perfectly thrown ball that would've been hard to drop.

Here's the sideline play before the half ..

It was a great throw. I have seen Dak make other outstanding throws as well so not sure it is the best.

Sick block on the play, Za'darius Smiths pressure rate is currently #1 in the entire league

Runwildboys · Nov 22, 2022

That was also an exceptional throw. It looked like the defender just assumed the throw was going OB, which it was, but it was going OB where only CeeDee could get it.

I'm not saying it's necessarily the best throw he's ever made, just that it's the best "touch" throw I think I've ever seen him make.

Who was the last Cowboys RB to be a downfield receiving threat? Walker? Dorsett?

It was a great play but I can’t say enough about how incredible the sideline pass and catch from Rayne to CeeDee just before half.

I don’t think the media realizes the level of difficulty it took to pull that off successfully because it’s barely made the highlight reel

Glad Dak was able to make it an easier catch, hate to see QBs throw balls to RBs like they are receivers, those guys usually can't make all the circus catches.

We spend so much time on Dak this, TOny, that, Zeke this, CeeDee that.....

But that is where the rubber rubs the road. EXCELLENT comment on your part sir. If they don't execute, we suck. Football 101, but ti doesn't get mentioned enough...during the good or bad. We want to blame or credit the bling targets.

The play design on Pollard's TD was great as well. Even if Harrison didn't cheat over because Dak was looking to his left, Schultz's route would have kept him more toward the middle of the field as well.
