my point is we don't NEED to be passing 30 times a game for us to win. the defense can carry us far in the playoffs if we continue to stick to this gameplan, whether we have dak or not.
i assure you if moore forced rush to pass 30 times last afternoon he would've had 250+ yards but an INT or two, something Dak is no stranger to as well...
rush went 10/16 for 102 yards and a 63% comp rate. that means we are doing something right.
passing the ball too much tends to lend to more sacks and INTs and thus turnovers.
I don't disagree. I like to get back to running the ball, and to play action and attacking down field. and let defense close out games (which is something very new in dallas).
but I don't think we can win consistently with Rush. 102 yards gets you a game here and there. and this is not the Ravens defense. we held two opponents to 10 points, but both flawed. we are not going to see flawed teams like that (both had really bad OLs). we have to be able to attack down field and score more than 13 points...
and the last thing you want is to have rush throw 30+ times a game. that's not his strength, nor ability. it was evident yesterday in a few of the throws and how long it took for it to get there. plus he has gotten lucky and luck only gets you so far. he threw two interceptions in Washington game that got called back because of penalties.
we are doing something right. making rush the bus driver. running the ball. playing defense. taking advantage of what the schedule put in front of us. coaches have actually been making good game plans, not putting the game in Rush's hands and protecting him. but yeah, screw the rest, but hey rush rush rush...because we hate Dak and praising rush is sticking it to Dak...right?
