Deion Said Ray Lewis Said the Cowboys Run one of the Simplest Offenses in the League

[SacredStar]

We need to get Holmgren in here and run the WCO.

 

[DMX690]

It's hard to run a complicated offence when you have dumb players on the team.

 

[CPonder14]

Ray Lewis was yelling out our plays before they were called. That draw is obvious, that WR screen obviously is clutch, our passing tree gets us absolutely no separation. You heard Marshall Faulk say it, "The Ravens are running their routes for them."

umm did you even read what I said. Why was Austin and TO so open if they knew what was coming? you have to convert those against a great D.

unbelievable stupid coaching staff on offense. We pass on 1st down..then run on 2nd down...then are forced to pass on a 3rd and long....I am holding on the little rope of the Garrett bandwagon..

It has been going on all year long. And Garrett hasn't changed over the last few weeks, when he is now being called out, which is a telling sign that he is over his head. If he knew what he was doing, he would most likely adjust.

 

[Tusan_Homichi]

14 of those points are a result of the defense being worn out, because the offense kept going 3 and out for 3 and a half quarters...

That's an excuse. We come up short in the 4th quarter too often on defense for it to be that they're tired all the time. There are a lot of teams in this league that suck on offense, but have good defenses that don't tire out in the 4th quarter.

I don't think we were tired. I think we just choked with the game on the line. As usual.

 

[gmsquid]

Yeah, can't blame the defense here. Offense didn't do **** the whole game. Half the time you were wondering what the heck they were trying to do. I saw no semblance of a game plan. I can sum up Garrett's game plan in two sentences:

1. Run a delay handoff out of shotgun formation to confuse the defense one out of every 100 times we do it.
2. Run all our receivers deep, and have Tony throw the check down every play.

talk to people that have been around him and ask what they think of Garrett. Aikman, Saban, Payton, Linehan. etc

It doesn't matter what those guys think. All that matters is how Jason Garrett performs as Offensive Coordinator.

He is the boy of Aikman... Payton is a one-trick pony as well... Saban... also had him on his coaching staff...

Point being, those are coaches that haven't done jack in the NFL... I woldn't want Payton coaching this team either...

 

[Tusan_Homichi]

umm did you even read what I said. Why was Austin and TO so open if they knew what was coming? you have to convert those against a great D.

It was a game of missed opportunities. You had Romo miss a couple of throws, TO lose one in the lights, a dropped pitch, etc.

We had the Ravens put the ball on the carpet something like 5 times and we only got one of them?

Just one of those goes our way and we might win.

and how long has he been a coach ? he needs learning experience just like ANY other coach.

Umm, I don't think we had more than 1 first down on like nay possession in the first half including the scoring one. That's pretty much putting your D on the field for 22-25 minutes. A good defense can probably play 35 minutes of a game.

We come up short all the time, because the pattern of this offense is to either srike quick in the beginning of the game or in the end of the game.. between quarters 2 and 3, this offense sucks butt... This defense is constantly worn out...

 

[CowboysxSwagger]

Garret doesn't suck
he just called some really dumb plays tonight
romo forced some stupid throws
our d got a lil tired and caved in..
sighh if we have any playoff hopes
we really need to come together as a team
but hey
CRAYTON LOOK GOOD!

You may not blame them, but I do. Twice they had chances to give the offense a chance to win and failed miserably.

Uh.... have you seen the Patriots OC? Or Spagnola? He hasn't shown any learnign capabilities... this team hasn't shown any progression... if he was learning, it would start to show...

 

[demdcowboys#1]

It doesn't surprise me. I think most everyone on this board knows what play is coming before it's run.

Jason Garrett has done a lackluster job playcalling all season. It is disgusting, absolutely no creativity, just a bunch of draw plays, screens and slants. Maybe a deep pass every now and then.....His playcalling is highly predictable. Its no wonder Ray-Ray said that.....

 

[CPonder14]

yep blame the O all you want, but if the D made 1 freakin stop we had a chance to win on a field goal. TWO times this happened and the D folded like a tent.

 

[CPonder14]

umm you are clueless. How long has McDaniels been coach?
How long has Spagnoulo been coach? ALOT longer than Garrett.

 

[gmsquid]

There's no way an offense with 5 GOOD receivers, should sputter like ours does.

Owens is a Hall of Famer. Williams is pretty good. Witten is on his way to the Hall of Fame. Crayton would be a 2nd receiver if he played anywhere else. Yet how can Dallas receivers not get open?

 

[gmsquid]

umm you are clueless. How long has McDaniels been coach?
How long has Spagnoulo been coach? ALOT longer than Garrett.

Then Garrett should still be a Quarterbacks coach, and work his way up to be a legit coordinator.
