Being realistic here, we've been incredibly fortunate that QB's have struggled mightly against us in regards to accuracy.
The lack of our pass rush is ugly, and had Wash, SF, or maybe even GB been accurate with the football, those games could easily have been losses. Now granted, we forced the issue, but at the same time, if NFL QB's in those games act like NFL QB's in regards to accuracy, it could be a much dif story.
We only rush 4, and giving QB's all day in the pocket is just playing with fire. If they're on, you're playing a defense (bend dont break) that is predicated on the opposing QB making a mistake. But when the field shrinks in the red zone, I prefer this method, just not between the 20's.
But what if the defense is doing something to create some of these inaccuracy issues?
Not all of them- no, but far more than what we're use to seeing.
Once is happenstance. Twice gets your attention... Three times is a trend.
I'm just not buying that the Cowboys are facing an "inaccurate QB" that week, which seems to be an every week occurrence.
I think the defense is having something to do with that.
