Backshoulder throws

[ConstantReboot]

We have no way of knowing how many are in the scheme itself. Dak has four, five possible targets on any pass play. And back shoulder passes are often just on-the-fly adjustments by QB/Receiver to the defense.

Back-shoulder passes are usually downfield throws and we’ve not yet had a lot of those.

Our TEs are not part of the equation. We probably won't throw to them the entire year. I hope Im wrong.

He can't. He is terrible at ball placement...

You're incorrect. A myth. One of the few misused phrases.

Your 1st video shows dez having to stop and come back for the ball and jump to catch it or it would have been too high and way behind him.

So you provide 1 clip of Dak completing a pass to prove a point? That he can do it on rare occasion.

That's only 2 examples. I can dig up more, but it was just to disprove the assumption that he can't.

I think you are trying to read more into his comment than there is. He's simply saying that the wave of back shoulder throws in the NFL isn't as strong as it once was. He was commenting about back shoulder throws after being asked about back shoulder throws. This was not about Dez.

Idk, maybe you aren't looking into this enough. We are suppoced to take this guy serious after what we have seen the past 2 weeks on offense particularly at WR i mean we just brought back butler who trashed the play calling and the coach .....I'm good with this guy he could go tomorrow for all i care. He was just a hiring to cover up a wrong doing of dez

makes me wonder if Richards as a hire was a lucky mistake

What have we seen at WR? They haven't been dropping passes, and by most reports they have been getting open but Dak is having difficulty finding them. In the first game Dak overthrew a lot.

How was he a hire to cover up a "wrong doing of Dez"? The team made a lot of coaching changes, not just that one, and he was hired 3 months before Dez was released. As for Butler, I don't think the team felt the melodrama/soap opera some fans did.

They were really trying to call Michael Richards because they heard Seinfeld was no longer on the air and knew he would be looking for a job. Same thing happened at QB coach where they thought they were calling Dudley Moore.

lol - i'll assume this was a tongue in cheek comment.

It is...

...but it also isn't.

Wonder if it is still a big part of the offense because it is currently not a strong part of Dak's game? I recall it taking Romo 1-2 years to really develop that skillset.

Almost certainly, and you're right about Romo. It was a couple years before he could throw the back shoulder or the fade with any consistency.

Romo is this you?
