Anybody else notice Dak didn't do something vs. Steelers that he's done every game?

[Awakened]

First game without a run.

Don't know if that was strategic based on Steeler's defense or if it just worked out that way. I only remember one read-option play where he handed it to Zeke, but not sure about that. I've always thought Dak's ability to run is a big weapon, but we got by today without putting that weapon to use.

Maybe I just missed it, but I didn't notice Zeke doing his "feed me" thing either. Anyone else?.....

There were few times where I thought he could have ran but not enough that I was too concerned about it. I think if we can win without him doing alot of running its a good thing.

Cuz I think all of his big plays resulted in scores!?!

 

[WoodysGirl]

Good. Because I hate the read option.

 

[vaturkey]

Didn't run any of the bootleg plays out the backside either. Maybe Pittsburg had something to do with them not running that play

 

[Deep_South]

I'm fine with Dak not running. Let Zeke do the running - we need Dak healthy.

Think he ran a boot with a pass to Witten going left. Not sure but maybe second quarter.

Actually I love the threat of the read option a lot!!! Just the mere fact that it's a possibility does wonders for the running game. The beauty is we only have to show it one or two times a game for it to be an ever present threat.

 

[mattjames2010]

Dak hasn't ran much in most games.

 

[Boyzmamacita]

Dak is definitely a pocket passer and that's a good thing. I did feel like he could've ran a few times, but like someone else said, let's keep him healthy.

 

[guag]

I thought I remembered him running for a first, or close to a first, very early in the game to the left sideline. I could be wrong though.

 

[MRV52]

Were saving his runs for the playoffs. Surprise!!!!

 

[Bigdog]

Sometimes I wish he would run for the first down just to keep the def honest.

A good bit. He's run 31 times for 125 yards and 4 TD's this season.

 

[Irvin88_4life]

That should scare the league. When we don't play our best or even use some of our special plays we are winning

You may be correct , to be correct i didnt see 2nd half except highlights , but i dont recall Zeke's feed me

....that's not all that much, and most of his runs came in what the Chicago and Philly game? In terms of mobile QBs, he's low on the list.
