Anyone catch the Collinsworth bit about Dak saying he was never coached like this?

[Chasing6]

Did you catch the comment from Collinsworth about his talk with Dak and how the lightbulb just went on? Am I interpreting this wrong? Is he just not used to West Coast Offenses? Took Romo about the same amount of time to just "get it" too. Dak made it sound like no coach until Big Mac took over the offense had ever shown him the right way to play QB and have a quick read and release? Wonder how many careers we killed with Jerry's hand-picked offensive coordinators Garrett & Kellen? LOL

Yes. However you have to be able to read a defense and trust your receivers to be able to throw the ball in rhythm off your drop back.

It is similar to synchronized swimming. Everyone has to be at the right place at the right time.

I was always amazed how Troy would throw the ball to Michael before he would even cut. That takes a lot of trust and practice outside of practice.

B b but we'll miss Kellen Moore

Kellen who?

 

[john van brocklin]

Dak finally is no longer handcuffed by the Jerry Jones coaching experiments. Romo might have won an sb too

You trying to depress me?

 

[BoysfanfromCanada]

Imagine Romo in a west coast offense. Not that it's the be all end all but it's a system, better than 'beat your man' that Garrett was allowed to pull for 10 years. What a waste. Same Garrett that is out of a coaching job

Romo was never the same once Parcells left. Only guy who could keep him in check when he was young.

Except Parcells sucked here as HC, and really didn't keep Romo in check.

Parcells did 3 things in Dallas:

1) discovered Romo and had the guts to name him starter.

2) Drafted Jason Witten and Ware

3) Quit

 

[Chasing6]

Why did he quit?

Horse teeth is one of the biggest Dallas haters on any network. Notice how he had the replay truck show the Smith hold and flag pickup 5 plays after it occurred. But never showed replays of holds on Parsons and there were numerous ones. And this clown also made excuses for the beagles as soon as it looked like they were going to tank. Did you also see the delight in Toricos voice when they called holding penalties against Dallas. Both Dallas haters.

Dak's going to just get better and better as he spends more time in MM's system. I believe his best years are ahead of him barring any major injuries.
Rich Gannon said MM was the one who unlocked his full potential. Gannon was a late bloomer also. He won the MVP award when he was 37.

Good point. Didn't even think about Gannon.

I have to say that Garrett's 9.5 year tenure was Jerry's biggest blunder as a GM.
And it was a whopper!!!!

That was bad but we wasted 2 years hiring a super bowl winning playcaller and not let him call play so boy wonder could learn on the job.

Sorry it was an egregious error.

 

[Chasing6]

QB's get better over time, because they learn how to read a defense. When they are young they can dominate athletically, but they can't read a defense. By the time they can read a defense they are no longer good athletes.

There is usually a very small window between the two, then you have to be on the right team, that has a good D and a good OLine with weapons on offense.

It’s the scheme. Those successful in the Texas Coast Offense need to be able to read the defense quickly and either pass to the open WR or improvise. Daks great at both.

 

[Rockport]

I definitely noticed when he said he was watching game film from other QB’s and asking himself “why aren’t they doing what we’re doing?”

Seems like a definite lightbulb moment.

It would appear that Dak might actually be “in the zone”.

I’m happy to ride it as long as it lasts.

And then jump ship at the first hint of an issue.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Yes, Jason Garrett was a terrible football coach.

That was bad too.
Some of Jerry's worst mistakes involved coaches.
Jimmy Johnson comes to mind.

Yeah I did catch that. That’s very interesting. Garrett and Moore ways of dealing with Dak is very different that McCarthy’s. Since the bye Dak has been tearing it up. It makes me wonder if JG and KM did not know how to coach Dak effectively. Now Mike has got him playing well and with good footwork. There might be something to that. Since the bye Dak has thrown 24 TDs to 2 interceptions. That’s huge. And he’s 2nd in the league QBR.

So this is encouraging going forward that this may be the real Dak that is being unshackled by JG and KM’s offense and McCarthy is coaching him up. I’m cautiously optimistic this is the new normal for Dak.

B b but we'll miss Kellen Moore

Look at Chargers

 

[Bob-Lillys-War]

awful coaching .

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Been saying this is a different Dak.........he running the offense now vs just running plays ( results be damn )

He took a Quincy Carter QB'd team that had stunk for three straight 5-11 seasons to a 10-6 playoff appearance. It was a coaching miracle.
