Get used to it. Our passing game shows no sign of getting better with just a host of dudes playing at TE and WR. Eight in the box is a common theme.

And this coaching staff continuing to try and make Dak a pocket passer defies all logic. Either one of two things need to change: draft a pocket passer a la Aikman or get a new staff.

We don’t know that the TE and WRs are the problem when the QB won’t throw unless a guy is as open as Beasley was on the 2 crossing routes or it’s a slant 5 yards away from him

Call the Steelers. Antonio Brown (in addition to Bell) should be available since it is obvious he wants out of Pittsburg.

His receiving yards for the past 5 seasons were in this range: 1,284-1,834.

Dak can hit open guys beyond 5 yards like Tavon against the Giants.

The problem is Tavon cannot get open like that consistently unlike a player like Antonio Brown.

If we had an actual GM— action would be taken in order to restore confidence and direct positive change.

To maintain status quo at this point is to concede a successful season in 2018. Their plan to make this offense “Dak friendly” has not worked and we are mired in offensive ineptitude.

It is time for responsible action to be taken. Either a change at OC or QB is in order. You cannot maintain this course without losing your locker room and alienating your fan base.

Everyone sees the issues— so a real GM would not put his head in the sand and move forward. Look at the data— and make the next right decision.

In my experience— the next right decision is rarely an easy one. IMO— either Linehan and/or Dak need to be relieved of their duties— regardless of how much Jerry cares/respects them personally.

For the sake of the health of his organization— Jerry needs to fulfill the responsibilities of his role—and do his job.

Brown will go insane and would want another trade if brought here. He wants the ball, no matter if he's triple covered.
Will make Dez look like a saint after all his tirades.
