Starts around 4:18.

Great video thanks

 

[Wolfpack]

Excellent break down

 

[cheyennes]

Simple doble trap, great play, if you add a read zone, really dangerous

 

[Tabascocat]

That is some good x’s and o’s

Kellen Moore all but said they are running the same offense - just a completely different way. Too many OC try to reinvent the wheel when all the need to do is keep making that wheel better. Isn’t it amazing what simple window dressing can do? Simple pre-snap movement can make the the D show their “tells” - why Linehan didn’t get that is mind boggling......

 

[CATCH17]

Just angers me even more with Garrett and the decade of stubbornness and wasted careers.

Chris Simms is already such a better analyst than his daddy

 

[Hardline]

He was a big fat fail at the University of Texas.

That's just a politically correct statement by Moore when the "boss" Garrett was the original OC for the offense.

In reality, it's not the same offense. They use the same terminology and started with the same base concepts which is great because the players don't have to learn a completely new offense; however, the end result is an offense that is not close the the same offense that Linehan ran last season.

The changes go well beyond just pre-snap movement.

Sometimes things just come together at the right time. If Kellen Moore had become the OC in 2017 it would be a different story. The offensive players on that team would have made the 2019 type of offense impossible.

Dez was a moron that made designing plays extremely difficult because the OC could not count on him executing plays as designed. Linehan got frustrated to the point that in 2017 he starting calling go routes often for Dez because it they knew he would run the the sideline with some amount of predictability and not run into the same space where other receivers were running their routes.

TWill was a very limited player. He struggled to catch really short passes because he needed the ball to be in the air longer in order to be able to adjust; however, he was also not a deep ball receiver.

Beasley was limited to his niche role as the underneath WR.

Witten played 100% of the snaps at the insistence of Garrett.

Can’t do anything about the past. Time to enjoy the present

Good video (though I wish we'd see video of the play after the breakdown).

Yes, it was odd that they didn't show any video.

It looks like he is in the lobby of a hotel or some building...

If his Dad had done the video I would have been asleep before the end...

Romo replacing Phil Simms might have been the biggest talent upgrade in the history of sports.

Bigger than Zack Martin replacing Mackenzy Bernadeau at OG.

...record screeching sound...nothing was bigger than Tyron replacing Free at LT...that's bigger than Lou Gehrig replacing Wally Pipp.

Honorable mention for Kellen Moore replacing Linehan.

On the flip side some guy named Pete Myers fresh off of a season playing with Scavolini Pesaro replaced Michael Jordan when Jordan retired the 1st time.
