What narrative do you want to push???? huh??????

Because if you want to look at things holistically, than this makes sense. BUT!!!! if you want to spin it into the Cowboys are "something" narrative!!!!! Then you don't share this! :laugh:

Buffalo has no running game and has had injured offensive lineman all year. They played the other day with an udfa at right guard and there backup guard at center. The offense is all Josh Allen. 100% opposite of the offense in Dallas. The offense in Dallas is setup for Dak to make plays on 3rd downs in easy situations since the line/tight ends and backs are so good.

Comparing the two offenses is not fair it's Apples and Oranges. I hope Allen gets a line and running game like Dallas has in the near future, can only imagine how good they would be if teams had to defend the run. This Bills offense reminds me a lot of the 07/08 Garrett Offense that romo ran here....Always in the shotgun, all the runs are essentially draws or delayed hand offs. Its all on the QB.

I'd rather have an offense which doesn't have to constantly rely on the defense to hold teams to under 20 points and one TD per game. Which is in no way going to put a team in better position to make a deep run in the playoffs than those INTs will.

That's my take on things with Dak, previous versions of him ended with this offense getting embarrassingly punked in the playoffs, deer-in-the-headlights frozen with panicked last second throws to the wrong receiver. This current aggressive version of Dak still has throws to the wrong guys but with better overall results,,, a net positive and a relative improvement. I'll take it, they can win with that if the defense resurrects itself.

Elliott (12 TDs - 0 TOs = +12)
Pollard (12 TDs - 0 TOs = +12)
Lamb (8 TDs - 0 TOs = +8)
Shultz (5TDs - 1 TO = +4)
Gallup (4 TDs - 0 TOs = +4)
Ferguson (3 TDs - 0 TOs = +3)
Hendershot (3 TDs - 0 TOs = +3)

The Cheifs must have a ton of fumbles

Mahomes this year
41 TDs - 11 TOs = +30.......:omg:

MVP


Allen has had a strong year too but he's lost 5 fumbles

38 TDs - 18 TOs = +20

I agree you can't mention interceptions due to non-QB errors without mentioning ints that were dropped by the defense.
That's just how it works.

I think some here forget the huge number of dropped interceptions by the opposing defense during the 5 1/2 games Rush played.
He was very fortunate on several occasions.

This stuff eventually balances out.

Would you people rather Dak turn his aggressiveness down a notch in hopes it negates his propensity to throw INTs?

You left out Dak's rushing TD.. so +9.

Given that at least half of his INTs are of the bounce off the receiver variety I'm not sure I'd change anything. We've been banging on him to "trust his receivers" and make "tight window throws" for years.. We can't now decide that since the receivers are volleyballing the ball to defenders at a rate I don't think I've ever seen that we don't want Dak to throw it to them. And it's not like we can blame it all on one receiver. Brown has two, Lamb has one, Schultz has one, Hendershot has one.. Who am I missing? Or do Schultz and Brown have one more each?

It's + 8
23 TDs - 15 TOs

I put 22 when it should've said 23, but the result was +8 either way
:thumbup:

fwiw, I dot think TOs will be a big issue in the playoffs


I don't think so either.. Teams notoriously go more conservative come playoff time. I feel fairly comfortable that Moore will not even be calling any of those routes that work into the teeth of the coverage and I know damn well Dak aint gonna throw them.
