Dak, Moore or the O Line

[Cwby41]

The mystery of Dak and this offense. We play a team that has very good players out on defense and cant move the ball until late in the 4th Qtr. Forget Washington game we have not played with a rhythm since New England.
At times it looks plain and lost with no creativity(Moore). Other times plays are getting blown up before they start with the OL or their are penalties at the worst time. Than there is Dak, He is on for awhile than gone for awhile with his accuracy and reads. When a team throws different looks at him he is done. How can we have 3 top WR in the game go missing full time. Plus our 2 RB.
I watch every game and I just cant figure out why between McCarthy and Moore can't get this right. Unless they did and Dak just can't get it done.
Before the Dak guys come at me let me say this Im a Dak fan, I like everything about him. But at this point Im not getting any younger and Im starting to wonder if I will ever see another SB win.
It is just a shame. Just a let down every year.

All of the above.

But the NFL is all about the QB.

1. Zeke. He has so many runs for 2 or less yards. Its the equivalent of a dropped or misplaced pass. His percentage of these near zero runs is ridiculous. Teams are now game planning for it, leaving few people in the box and just trying to clog the middle because he is too slow to go outside.

2. Moore. Has that WR screen worked more than 10% of the time? Its just another give up play. The guy is predictable and frequently digs a hole with 3 and outs in the first half that the team can't dig out of. Doesn't use Pollard enough.

The O line isn't as dominant as it was but its not terrible. For some reason, the holes are there with Pollard and Dak isn't getting sacked a ton. He has the 8th lowest sack%. Most of the time to throw measures are middle of the pack.

Dak is an average starting QB. He is good enough to win when everything is clicking, not good enough to overcome adversity when some other part of the team isn't performing. He is a lightning rod because that's what QB's are but he is neither the problem nor the solution.

You are not that good when there is a blueprint on how to beat you that works.

 

[Jake]

Zeke and Pollard had 12 carries between them and gained 25 yards, which says something about the line.

One-dimensional teams become easy to slow down.

 

[glimmerman]

Was a undisciplined O-Line. Falls on the coach but nothing will be done. Happening all season. Same mistakes.. Dak played terrible. Moore never helped him out. Any roll out plays.

 

[IceStar-D7]

All of them. I'd put Moore at the top. Dak in third place.

You are not that good when there is a blueprint on how to beat you that works.

Teams come up with blueprints to beat other teams all the time. Good teams adjust their schemes to force teams to change the blue print. The plays being called right now are almost identical to those that were called early in the season. KM has no answers.

This is daks 7th or 8th game this year playing below average,what did parcells always say,you are what you are and he is average...their even saying that on post game show.

Where can we get one?

 

[Cowboyz88]

Moore seems to run the ball a lot on second down, regardless of distance.

 

[LucaBrasi]

Dak isn’t playing well, the oline is heavily penalized and under performing. But man alive take a look at some of these routes on 3rd and 7+.

There was a play in the 4Q, 3 man rush, 8 in coverage and there were 3 receivers 20 yards down field with 8 guys covering them.

no crossers, no check down. I wish McCarthy would have some ideas to help boy wonder the OC

And how many times do you have to fail at a wr screen before you stop calling it?

Crazy. Prescott doesn’t throw that play particularly well, not to mention the blocking is usually hideous. Yet, Boy Wonder calls a handful per game

 

[ChronicCowboy]

All of them….

it started with poor line play early in the season when we had to shuffle dudes around. Then Dak got hurt and came back unable to handle the extra pressure. That made KM crunch the playbook to find plays that Dak could execute. That makes us predictable. The Cards called our plays all day.

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

Teams are playing two deep safeties and we still cannot run the ball. The Oline is just as much to blame as Dak and KM. Maybe even more to blame when you factor in penalties.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

The guy that makes 40 million a year.

 

[CT Dal Fan]

Yes (Dak), big yes (Moore), and biggest yes (offensive line).

This was a more competitive version of the Broncos game. Poor blocking, no running game, off target Dak, weird playcalling. Shake, stir, and serve up the loss.

And while I'm not giving Dak a pass (I am a supporter), I do have to give him credit for rallying the team to two late touchdowns. It seems he eventually figured out Arizona's defense, but way too late.

Dak audibles way too much.....I put it on him a lot of the time.

 

[TheHerd]

Two deep and we have NO holes to run. The offensive line IS terrible. And while our receivers have talent, the drops disqualify them from being called top 3 in the league. And Dak isn’t great. He’s good, but limited
