The Cowboys roster on offense is similar to San Fran's.. That Shanahan system is actually perfect for our personel.
The balance between the run and pass is what we have been trying to achieve and the way they scheme things just creates natural running lanes and the Shanahans do this with just about any team they have.
Now they have added that sweep with the WR and I would think that would be a new staple for all teams. The Debo samuel play. Dallas needs to make that play a priority in the offseason. (I think we may have done it a few times this year)
I know Jay Glazer told Jerry we needed a leader of men.. Blah blah.. But if I could have any coach in the league right now for our team it would probably be Shanahan. Zeke would probably set records in that offense.
Although Niners don’t have a premiere featured back like zeke Elliott - and we don’t have a featured pro bowl TE like the Niners do in TE George Little.
I agree that I also love Shanahan’s play action and misdirection offense that maximizes and plays right into the strengths of QB Jimmy Grappolo, so much better and effective when used off
play action and jet misdirection than just straight back pocket passing.
and I have always loved how Shanny schemes his run game and how he involves his RBs into the pass game.
In a different world, I could see Tony Pollard used in the same sense as Debo Samuels with those jet sweep misdirection reverse runs that work so effectively for Niners ,… but under Kellen, Pollard was under utilized, imo. Hopefully that changes under McCarthy, or Kellen becomes a better play caller.
I am so hoping McCarthy (not Kellen) can get this run game revamped and back on track with some of the QB under center deep backfield run formations that he used often in Green Bay.
Interestingly MM used a lot more split and two Backs in backfield and many times no TEs- which all the more makes me wonder if a new better blocking FB will be here vs subpar Olawele.
But even better I can see MM better utilizing the RBs in the pass game much more efficiently than what Kellen did.
Swing- flair passes, misdirection screen plays that would be perfect for the likes of zeke and pollard. - which BTW, RBs in pass game was another one of the few areas I thought Kellen struggled with in his first year as OC
