2 yards isn’t open enough in the NFL, you should delete your post to avoid anymore embarrassment
So answer the question. What do you use to determine if a player is open or not?

Also, you don't understand the metric, because it includes every route not just whether or not they are targeted. An average of 1.9 means a ton of 0

Right on cue. Try to spin the Next Gen Stats any way possible in order to condemn the QB. Never fails.

SMH. :facepalm:
No this is what you are doing. This was presented earlier this week in Dan’s defense which is exactly why you’re reposting a new thread on the same topic. This stat doesn’t include all the times dark chose to go to a different receiver when one was clearly open. It only includes routes where an attempt was made. I could turn this back around and say dark seems to be targeting receivers that aren’t open and missing others that were open. This also doesn’t show how many times dak targets less than 10 yards of air. He is a dink and dunk an and there isn’t a lot of separation in the dunk and dunk passes. Fact is your wb still sucks.
Here’s a good one ask has less air yards differential proving his dunk and dunk as he’s close to bottom of the league

Do you watch the games or just use metrics to make comparisons. Use any stat or metric you like only know what they actually are not what you want them to be.
So in other words, you don't believe any metric that doesn't fit what you already believe. Great, wonderful.

Thank you for making it perfectly clear that you have no idea what you're talking about.

Hello, this article was written recently, not days ago as you falsely stated. It's full of factual statistics. If you can't refute the statistics, keep your personal bias out of this thread. Thanks.

Oh, but I thought the Cowboys won 12 games in three years? So, it's the playoffs where Dak craps the bed, huh.

Funny how the team has no players/weapons during the playoffs, yet won 12 games three times.

Logic -101.
Once you reach the playoffs, every team is very good. Of you don't have a balanced attack and a good defense, you're not going to advance very far in the playoffs.

You ask a lot of questions, so why don't you tell us your answer.

Receiver seperation doesn't seem to be anything new. The team's Dallas offense has struggled against are those that play physical and get up to the line and hit receivers. All the proposed adjustments above can help these receivers with seperation and open things up more.

-Bunch receivers
-Add more motion
-Add play action
-More crossing patterns
-Use Vaughn in the screen game
-Misdirection runs
-Add more uptempo

I know it's easy to criticize from the couch, but man McCarthy and Schottenheimer have to go back to the drawing board and think about how they can revise their play calling or add some elements that keep defenses on their toes.

Also you are not showing average cushion which is directly related to separation. Ceedee is number 1 on Cush being 3.5 meaning he pressed on the line more than any other receiver

I didn’t say that you’re the one that doesn’t understand the metric in the op. But keep posting it’s funny how you still don’t understand the metric used. Maybe you should just stop and look at the metrics for all receivers during the game and then you will see the Cowboys are in the NFL average as a group, the also are in the top for pass protection time it’s up to the QB to find the best option. There I helped you out and with a little work and understanding what the metrics really mean will help you post factually not based on what you think it means
