Fix the problem

[CCBoy]

Instead of a fan lynching of all 'bad guys,' what if the problem actually is changeable?

What if Dallas employed a positional element to how defenses responded to scheme. Basketball has had a concept of zone fast break, that has worked despite scheme and player changes, for over a hundred years. The same could be applied to the current Dallas offense. A route specific and advantage scheme is again being utilized by the Cowboys. Time and quality run routes, is much more easily negotiated by Dak Prescott, as well as giving the receivers an advantage in route use.

With the addition of Cooper, the trio of Cooper, Beasley, and Gallup provide an optimum group for a fast breaking zone trio. With this group moved to the flank, it adds an area dimension for a defense to cope with. It now has to adjust to cover just such a group, without giving up significant advantage to the routes of this group.

The offensive line remains the same, hence, the need to over compensate strictly for run defense, remains high. An opposing defense simply can't compensate to overcome distinct area advantages that now can function independently and quite effectively. Linebackers will then be in purgatory, and remain flat footed or committed to the defense of one or the other.

This would also prove to be an easy read for Prescott...where his own creativity and ability to run could dice up things in favor of Dallas, quite strongly.

May be easier to just get a new coaching staff and scheme. That is the real long term problem.

It's quicker to solve the problem, instead of introducing new members and further develop some sort of functional cohesion.

Dak needs open recievers. Easiest way to get open? Rub routes/pick plays. I'm willing to bet we are in the bottom 5 of these types of plays being used.

Not if you are talking about a pretty extensive scheme change.

And there is another level to this. What makes you think Garrett and Linehan and company can make that adjustment. It was widely reported (and both Jerry and Stephen spoke extensively on this in preseason) that Garrett and the offensive coaches were going to use the offseason to come up with an offensive scheme that would work to Dak's strengths, etc. The offensive coaches missed one of the senior bowl events because Jerry said they were back in Dallas working on the new offensive scheme.

The results of this offseason of work of revamping our offense has had less than stellar results. Why are you confident then that this staff could do what you want them to do?

Garrett reads your posts, gets offended, turns his nose up and says we're the big bad Dallas Cowboys and we're gonna line up and out execute everyone cause we're the Cowboys and we got the best players in the world and scheme doesn't matter.



I think the quick fix for the Cowboys this season is to run more hurry up. I know we may have some quick 3 and outs and leave our defense hanging out to dry but when they can't score I would love to see some tempo added to the offense.

The problem is these clowns can never find a balance and will go too far one way.

Can't fix the problem while retaining the problem.

That doesn't incorporate change, only character assassination...not in discussion here.

The basis of route trees was worked on heavily in the off season. Precision of routes was an added item to focus, and a new coach for their instruction was added as well.

How they are combined, then becomes only a problem for the quarterback, yet that is an easy transition for recognition. He would already know who would be his first and second reads, if a route scheme were use. Not a block to transitioning.

Route trees are already interchangeable. How they're brought together, is merely a tool for the quarterback and determining how those trees are defensed.

More is involved beyond anticipating the emotion of 'change.'

The basis has already been worked upon, and Cooper now needs to be included. More work as a unit any way...

Your direction in scheme, and play-action have a ton of potential with the receivers now assembled.

Character assassination

Changing the failed HC is all about incorporating change. Has nothing to do with Garrett's character, only his poor coaching.

That would take a new OC. I'm good w/ it.

I didn't sleep well a Holiday Inn Express last night so haven't a clue.

I have serious doubts as to wether this OC is capable of what you are suggesting.

One side of the field has the offensive line, quarterback, and Elliott. The other side has a trio of receivers: Cooper, Beasley, and Gallup. The trio of receivers can be used in a passing play, or to support a run. A defense, will have to choose which part of the field, that it wishes to commit towards. The defense is divided by area and intensity required to stop the run or the pass.

The passing attack can then function as a quick break in basketball, requiring speed and dedicated action on two receivers: Cooper and Beasley.

Mix in activity and run potential by Prescott, and linebackers will gladly be looking for the next opponent to focus upon.

The Coordinator has seen it all...and Garrett was part of the offense under Turner.

If you applied for the OC job, I would support you.
