Cowboy's Biggest problems moving forward

[EST_1986]

The Texans lol I mean

My son and I were at the Ten game. We were calling the plays at the LOS. "Here comes a run that won't work" was said many times during the game.

TY will add new dimension to offense. Once Dak gets fluid with addition. Receivers will have more space to play with.

DQ has to get Micah moving more. Offenses im sure wont like that. It also helps pass rush.

Stay healthy>>>

So the book is out and yet they scored 33 points a game afterwards? I guess it’s out for the Chiefs too.

I've read thread replies like this from last season. Then the screaming and hollering starts after the one and out I stand by my post. They don't make changes. One and out!

What's your definition of one and out?

 

[TexasHillbilly]

Yes- Big Mac has. But just like last season. We start hot and then that ONE team gives the blueprint on how to end it. Dallas hasn't figured how to adjust or counter. Last season or this season thus far.

I see what your saying but......I remember Peyton running the same plays every game and it is really about executing the play correctly. jmho

dont really care about the Chiefs and the Cowboys book is an easy one to read, not sure anyone actually put the blueprint out to beat Dallas. Seems to me we just play down to our opponents and we play phenomenal against better teams. Scary part is the two teams were likely to face in the playoffs are bad teams and have a record of winning against Dallas.

Under Mike McCarthy and fellow coaches Dallas has always started hot then faded as they get to the end. And I believe it's one single answer for it. Once we are exposed on any side of the ball. Dallas is unable or unwilling to change their game plan. I believe and have seen most of Dak's int's come from the same routes. Like teams are just waiting for those routes to jump them. On defense Quinn seems to love playing man to man versus running some zone underneath. Kellen Moore I can practically sit on the couch and call plays for Dallas. So-if I'm on the couch play calling. How much is a professional DC seeing those plays coming at game time? I mean on both sides of the ball we are so predictable. And getting back to Quinn. Why can't we seem to be able to dial up a great blitz when we need it? I rarely have seen a Dallas blitz get home. And when it does its usual Wilson that gets it. In closing I believe if Dallas doesn't show different fronts to teams-especially with TY- being teams don't have much film on him as a Dallas Cowboy. We're pretty much looking at one and out. Dak has to stay consistent- minus the int's. We need to establish the running game again!! All these so-called future hall of famers on the Oline? Yet can't move a box of tissue. And in closing. We need that defense and pass rush we had the first half of the season. Once again teams scheme getting the ball out fast against it. Quinn has to counter this some way. And finally. I'm so Sick of Tom Brady!! Time for Dallas to send his butt into retirement for good

I find this to be the ramblings of a fan who watches the game on TV, doesn't see all twenty-two at the snap, and either through bias, or lack of understanding, ignores when the team has made adjustments, thus inspiring this post. Ignore when the receivers have fallen, allowed the ball to bounce off their hands or bodies, and interceptions occur. Not to say 4 doesn't make errors. Being aggressive causes such things. But being competitive also requires risk.

Because three things can happen when a pass is thrown. And two of them are bad.

I do not believe you sit on the couch and call plays. I do believe you think you do. Frankly, if 4 was mic'd up and you could hear the play being called, I doubt you could accurately predict the play one out of ten times. And that is grading you on the curve.

You rarely see a Dallas blitz get home. Maybe because Dallas doesn't blitz that much and tries to put pressure on with four instead of a extra player or two.

But what I do know is teams in the NFL show the same fronts and run different plays to disguise their intent, and fool the defense. I cannot count how many times i have heard the receiver tries to make every route look the same coming off the line. Or the offense runs a wide variety of plays off the same sets.

The offensive line has a weakness. If you listen to the talking heads they will tell you how great they are. But this team gives up way too many hurries, which causes the QB to throw off time and not on his spot. Yet this is one of the top offenses in the league.

As time wears on, more and more of the negative posts are made. I get it, we all want to win. But some of you people just suck the fun out of this game by your analysis as you wipe the Cheetos' dust off your wife beater and burp Old Milwaukee.

So here's a little something to soothe your angst. See if you can move it.

Does it occur to you that there are only two KINDS of plays an offense will run before they have to punt? I am no math wizard, but it seems to me calling a run, and not the specific run has about a fifty-fifty chance of being right.

I wouldn't go open up a palm reading business with that record.

 

[Acceptablename]

Dallas has started several games called I went on to win a few and lose one or two. When are inferior team learns to be the better team like San Francisco that’s one hell of a coaching job. It’s very difficult to control strongerSide. That’s San Francisco

Our biggest problem is the Offensive and Defensive lines.

If they can out play the other O lines and D lines in the playoffs we have and EXCELLENT chance of winning. If the O line and D line do there job, I am confident the other units will play well.
I am a little worried about Tyron at RT tackle. He looks slow on his feet. Hoping he can slow down speed rushers without holding.

Quinn can help the D line by designing some good blitz’s. He has done it a little, use Micah as a decoy. Micah fake blitz’s and someone else blitz’s, etc. Can’t believe I’m saying this after the way we rushed the passer early in the year, but I think we will slow down the run with Hankins coming back, but a little worried about our pass rush. Like I said, Quinn can help with that!

Coaching, quarterbacking and defense.
In that order.

 

[fivetwos]

I've never seen people complain so much about a coaching staff that has made the playoffs in back to back seasons. Thread after thread about how much we suck and how the sky is falling. It's crazy. lol

I get it, we all want playoff wins, but why don't we let this thing play out first? Maybe we get bounced quick? Maybe we win? That's the fun in why we watch.

Win totals don’t always define if moving ahead with that particular staff of the best move….but I don’t see how it makes sense to shake things up now, even if we lose to Tampa.

The teams success has a lot to do with Mike McCarthy, and he is handling the situation and the pressure very well. I’m impressed in fact.

I’d like to see him install one of his own confidants as OC, with himself taking a larger role in playcalling moving ahead…but that would have to come about by Moore getting a HC job. Jerry won’t fire him.

Losing Quinn would be a step back, and my dream scenario is Moore getting a HC job but Quinn not. Can’t see that happening, but bottom line is McCarthy needs to be here…..he is handling Jerry and the entire situation very, very well.

The biggest problem the Boys have is keeping Prescot ROCK SOLID FOCUSED, so that he doesn't have another SLOW START game and doesn't make any boneheaded plays.

I'd say the whole team. From week to week the only thing that is consistent is Dak. Great numbers one or two int's. Consistency at it's finest......

I'm in!! How much per session!!
I went to a Seeress once 27 years ago and she predicted the Cowoys playoff fails for 27 years.

 

[john van brocklin]

I feel that he is the reason we have had little post season success the past 27 years.
Hoping for at least one playoff win this year.
We will be better than any first round opponent that we face, and will have no excuses.
