the defense let them drive 99 yards

Goal line situations are where we miss Zeke. He had 12 TDs last season. Now we’re forced to go with a very average inexperienced player to try and pound the ball in.

McCarthy may want to give rz playcalling duties to someone else.

Any given Madden Video Game veteran knows what to call in these situations.

I bet we need a new offensive coordinator.

Well when your top running back can get spun around like a helicopter blade by a DB using one arm, you have a problem

Bad coaching. Bad scheme.

Jimmy Johnson wouldn't have put up with that crap.

When players keep missing their assignments and there is a lack of execution……coaching

 

[PAPPYDOG]

How can this be when we have the BEST QB in the NFL????

It’s both.

The “very ave” player got us 2 1st downs near midfield.....that Zeke was getting stuffed on for years, and with a better O.Line in front of him than Luepke has...

Dallas would never have gotten to the red zone.

There were years when Zeke dropped the rock regularity.....likely cost several games each year

Not sure what games you were watching but Zeke was great in short yardage situations. He moved the chains consistently. He always managed to fall forward. You obviously don’t like Zeke.

You are either coaching (teaching) it OR you are allowing it to happen.

Pre-snap penalties aside....this is the issue

Team Rushing TDs

1. Miami 26
2. Detroit 24
3. SF 24
4. Balt. 24
5. Philly 22
6. Buffalo 20
...
16. Dallas 13


All of the legit contenders are at the top. You see where Dallas is ranked. Those aren't all goal-to-go TDs but im sure the vast majority are. The issue is this team can not run block consistently, which is of utmost importance in a confined area down near the goal line. And they insist on using a scatback on top of that. IMO it's been the biggest weakness of the team all season. It will only be magnified during the playoffs.

Jimmy had Emmitt, Moose, and the great wall of Dallas. This team isn't capable of just pounding it in like that one, so they get cute.
