The hints are everywhere.
Some overt ramblings from our talk-before-you-think owner. Some curious moves made during the offseason that are puzzling and interesting at the same time. Some notes from open-media workouts in recent days. Not to mention that shared gut feeling we all have.
This wasn't working. Not one bit. You don't go three games with one lousy touchdown unless there are irreparable flaws in your offense, whether Tyron Smith is playing or not. You're doomed against good teams, quite obviously.
The answer, so they've surmised by all indications, is to drastically change the passing game altogether. Stop trying to do what can't be done, and focus on what can be. Let the run game anchor the offense as is, but re-work the air game entirely.
A highly paid No. 1 receiver is a waste of time and money on this team. Traditional pro style offense just didn't fit the quarterback and receivers on hand. Instead, let's just be what we are, and try something very different. Such is the thought process.
Dak Prescott is more sturdily built than RG3 and other running quarterbacks that were quickly maimed by the NFL. Let's not be afraid of using him in that fashion. RPO can be a staple of the offense just as it was at Mississippi State, so let's get our strapping young QB into his comfort zone.
Ditch traditional NFL route running, flood the field with quick routes and throws, and keep our QB on the move constantly in hopes that teams will face it so little, the Cowboys will be difficult to prepare for. Much like playing Georgia Tech or Air Force. That wishbone makes it tough for much better teams to beat them.
I hate college offenses, so this makes me want to throw up. However, I get the thinking on this. They've given up already on trying to turn Dak into a traditional NFL quarterback. Let's try and pave the way for what future NFL quarterbacks will be. Lord knows it's hard to draft players today because none of them understand pro concepts coming out of college anymore.
I love it when my Cowboys win. However, I also don't see myself interested if the NFL if it starts to look like a typical Auburn-LSU game, or even Oregon-BYU. This is all very disconcerting for me, but who am I?
That's where Jerry Jones wants to go with this. I suspect the coaches agree, or at least enough to buy another spot of time here. Jason Garrett certainly has no more leverage to bargain with.
That's what we should prepare for. A much different approach.
