Why doesn't Dallas use the no huddle more. If I remember correctly that was the offense in Dak's rookie year and it was very effective. Play to his strengths which would include rollouts, RPOs and no huddle. That is Dak friendly. Thoughts?
Every time they let Dak Tun the no huddle the results are a lot better!!!

Same thing with Tony. We'd wait til the end of the game to play the way that works.

No huddle and we drive right down the field.

Once we get inside the Red Zone, Linehan starts calling plays again and everything comes to a screeching hault.

Linehan’s awesome.

Because it works.

Garrett is too stubborn to get away from his slow paced offensive philosophy. He just loved those third and medium situations where everyone has to execute in order to get a first down.

This has been an issue even with Romo.


Witten called them out on it on MNF.

I loved Witten on MNF.. He got a couple things off his chest about this offense.

McFarland and the other guy ripping the offense tells me Witten probably gave them an ear full all week.

We don't run a lot of no huddle because that's not our offensive philosophy, we want to pound the ball and try to control the ball and clock.

No huddle puts a lot of pressure on your own defense, especially if you get a quick 3 and out. The Cowboys are a ball control team and rather play for long methodical drives. However, I too would like to see a couple drives earlier in the game where we implement no huddle. Keep the opposing team guessing, are we going to run slow or fast to keep them off balance.

They run no huddle in situations where the defense is playing zone, either late in a half or with a lead. They're giving up underneath stuff.

Run it all the time and the defense (and results) would vary.
