And secondly yes a play will breakdown or be covered up which will lead to holding the ball, but that’s a play are two and not an average for the game.

Agreed - and it wasn't all the time, with Romo, but probably more often than it should've been. With 2019's offense, I think the ability of the O-line to preserve a clean pocket for a few extra seconds on the play or two per game where it's needed is just gravy, or at least that's what I'm hoping for.

Seems it’s pretty clear the shifts/motion help Dak pre-snap and thus post snap read the D.

Brilliant strategy. I won’t belabor on why this is new for us. :mad:

Absolutely. I imagine it’s a combination of Dak being better at reading the defense and knowing where he wants to go pre snap.

And also a better designed offense that actually helps get receivers open

There was an article during training camp about Kitna preaching to Dak about trusting his reads and "letting it rip", so I guess that was a goal the coaches had as well. And Dak has the reputation of being eager to learn and willing to put in the time and hard work.

Moore and Kitna have been a godsend for Dak. It’s only been 1 game, but the decision making to this point has been superb. He looks confident and more decisive, if he keeps this trend, Dak will, and can be an elite QB.

Dak had an amazing game, but one thing to say this guys were WIDE open, like literally 3 steps about every throw he made, I would be very interested in yards of separation stat for week one. Dak had one of the greatest games ever, but I do have concerns that the defense they played was flat out terrible after getting rid of 3 their best defensive players.
They weren't always wide open. Dak threaded the needle several times.
