Dak play from Eagles

[TheMarathonContinues]

An agenda driven pile of steaming crap.

Hahaha goodness lol....

Romo in the broadcast booth constantly says that if the defense shows this look they are going to get one-on-one to the outside here and you get the shot you want..

That was a perfect one on one oppurtunity..

Why Dak didn’t throw it, we don’t know but he clearly didn’t scan the field to the right. It’s said that Linehan last year had to “dumb down” the offense to primarily half the field, because Dak basically worked half the field in college..

The plays from Linehan include a primary target. Dak does not get to pick his first read.

Dak is back there 10 seconds before the snap but that gif only show 1 second before the snap. Look at the full game instead of a gif.

 

[CATCH17]

You can see the safety deep around the 32 shifting more towards the center of the field,

The WR as on the right, not sure who he was.. like I said earlier, after looking at it again, it was more likely the profession was left from the beginning.

That being said Dak still doesn’t bother to scan the field at all before he snaps it. His eyes are in one direction the whole time..

Yeah but look at that guys route on the right.

He’s running like he knows that ball isn’t coming his way.


Regardless.. That play sums up our pass scheme.

 

[xwalker]

Yup.

But what people are missing is that Dak was looking for Witten. He then threw it to Williams who put in a poor effort on the route although I don't think it would have mattered anyway. The only real play was to throw it to Butler who is questionable on those 50/50 balls. If we put Dez there instead that is more likely to draw a double and get Witten one-on-one. Now imagine if we had a real threat catching the ball for big plays at TE.

With the off coverage on Williams, it could have been a first if Williams was the first read. The problem is they are not letting Dak decide pre-snap where who will be his 1st read.

Williams did that slow jog to avoid running towards the defender in the middle #52.

Your right, which is why I mentioned that when I said I rewatched it a couple times.

I’m tending to agree more with what @Yakuza Rich says.

My original objection was that he didn’t go right when they had that one-on-one. He was looking in one direction the whole time.

The idea that Witten was the first read actually makes sense.

The way TWill ran confuses me too. Because that ball was late. In my other post I also said that originally I thought he may have been the decoy, but then the way he ran I thought maybe he was anticipating the ball on the timing route to run after the catch, but didn’t get it so he kind of jogged and then Dak threw it late.

But even then like Yakuza said it’s horrible spacing, because it’s funneling TWill towards Witten as the primary anyways..

The main point being the best bet was Butler.. why Daj didn’t go there and adjust pre-snap, not sure..

 

[Kaiser]

Kind of OT but they are already saying that WR Coach Derek Dooley "wants to return to the college game" so expect to see him leaving in a week or so. Then expect to read a lot of issues involving him that didn't come out during the season.

 

[xwalker]

No, that bomb was overthrown five feet above TWill’s Head..

No it was not that far if you're talking about the one near the right sideline. Butler probably would have gotten to it with his speed.

Again the issue is that a defender was coming across the field to intersect Williams' path right where the ball would have to be for him to catch it. Also Williams did some weird move not running full speed for the first half of the route.

I don't remember Williams being in sync with Romo on a bomb either. Sadly Butler is the only WR with a reasonable ability to go get a deep ball.

And Philadelphia was sitting on it which is just is a small example of Dez saying that teams know our plays being true.

I saw the safety coming. There was a huge window. Dak’s throw was HIGH and had nothing to do with a safety coming over late to the play.. a high ball has no bearing on an intersecting safety approaching horizontally and the middle from yards away on a sideline route.. that’s just a bad throw like his Beasley one right after.

Thanks to @LocimusPrime for the link

Self-explanatory at how bad Dak is at reading the field and reacting..

Third and 4 or 5.. single coverage on the right. Dak staring in one direction, the left and goes to the guy three yards from the first down marker while the DB has already made a break to the ball because of Dak’s eyes the whole time...
And Dak throws way late too..

Linehan’s fault...

Now you're over here talking mess. I thought I taught you a few things. I bet if you look, you'll find plays where Romo did the same thing....even after him being in the league 10 years. Lol...Let it go dude. He's not coming back. Embrace the Dak.

I see this all the time with our WRs. They know that they aren't getting the ball so they run their routes at half speed. This telegraphs the play and makes it easier for the opposing safeties to defend us.

Hey troll, I bet if you look, you'll also find plays where Romo looks down to his right and...

Prescott in his last 8 games had 6 TD passes and 9 INTs. 6 of those games he had under 200 yards passing.

Even IF Romo did this, what does this matter? It doesn't help Prescott in any way.

The comparison to Romo needs to end - Dak played terribly. End of story.

Wow.. I agree we have to stop mentioning Romo and Dak in the same sentence.. friggen makes me angry. Look at the ball arc.. it literally drops into Dez's hands even after his stutter step/face mask and move.. just a perfectly thrown ball on a contested 1-1 route.

Dak can only dream of making passes like that. One of the biggest mistakes in Cowboy history.. its has cost us one shot at a SB, maybe two already.. and who knows when we will find the next true QB.

Exactly, and in this case it shows a 50/50 ball is not always needed. Just a low trajectory ball thrown in front of the receiver, that gets there just ahead of the safety. Perfect. And Dez wasn't really all that open...

 

[Kevinicus]

Hey troll, I bet if you look, you'll also find plays where Romo looks down to his right and...

But but but....there was a safety coming over to intersect. Romo should have thrown it out the back of the end zone.

Wonder how he knew to throw to Dez. Couldn't have been a pre-snap read because Linehan doesn't allow that.

At least that is what I am told.

My point is Dak is in his 2nd year. He should make mistakes. Dak is still learning. Romo was there for 13 years and got us what? Nothing but consistently breaking our hearts. two playoff wins in 13 years and you have the NERVES to talk about how bad Dak is. Lmao. Dak has thrown less interceptions as a ROOKIE than Romo has thrown in any season of his 13 years....hell, Romo hasn't thrown 4 interceptions in a injured shorten season. Lmmao! Learn the game first!

 

[Dorsett33]

Troll, eh? Lol. I'm sure you'll find videos of Dak looking both ways as well.....Troll!

 

[Seven]

I

Why is a two yard route being called? That's the real problem.

To run an underneath for the DB that was playing way off.. he was clearly a checkdown or decoy

Why didn’t Dak look right to see how the coverage was shifted to his left pre-snap? Look how far off the other safety is playing on the other side as opposed to the left DB..

Because Bell stinks.

If we have to say more you should watch ping pong.

Players should not be REGRESSING - that's the problem.

Romo didn't regress, he progressed throughout his career. Romo was not the same QB from 2006 to 2008, he wasn't the same QB in 2009, and he wasn't the same QB from 2011 to 2014. Romo was always a player working hard on fixing his mechanics, even as a veteran. He didn't take steps back in that regard.

Dak has regressed in areas - his footwork especially has been terrible.

Make better arguments.
