Gallup playing like “the old MG"

[Kingofholland]

It was good seeing Gallup come up with some contested catches Sunday. It seems he still has good straight line speed and can make those tight catches.

Some of his struggles this year have been around his ability to seperate, but I also think the Cowboys have thrown more short and intermediate stuff in Texas Coast where maybe he doesn't get the seperation of other players. Also likely why his snaps have decreased the last few weeks.

However, I've been saying for some time eventually he'll be needed to pull down that big catch late in the season. Yesterday gave me hope he can make that play if needed.

He needs to continue. If he and Cooks can really get into the flow this offense can get to the next level

Now what to do about running game

Hey Man ! I think the running game is fine. Now that Dowdle is getting carries. In corporate more Luepke in tight situations. I think we may have something here

 

[CWR]

Can the village idiots tell me again how inaccurate the qb is, and how he can't throw into tight coverage?

 

[Beaker42]

Is it too much to ask for Zeke to ask to be released from NE. Then Jerry brings him back.

If no team claims him from waivers. If so he can refuse to play for that team.

Huh?????

The pass game can open up the running game

 

[krs1bro]

He definitely had a game to build on as well as Cooks . After the philly game I gave up on both of these receivers.... lets see how it plays out.

 

[CATCH17]

How can this be possible? I thought Prescott cannot be that accurate. He doesn’t have a good deep ball, and he only dink and dunk the ball up and down the field.

Dak doesn’t throw enough deep balls.


1 thing Cooper Rush is clearly better at is getting receivers opportunities down field to make a play or draw a flag.

I’m always shocked when Dak throws a deep sideline pass.

He threw a lot against the Giants

I don't understand the "improbable" label of these passes. I love stats, but some of these things don't make sense to me. The guys were open and the QB hit them.

Lol ok. It's about as simple as it gets. A ball thrown that deep has low odds of completion. It's pretty simple math, otherwise teams would throw long passes about 25 times a game.

He has never separated well. He is better at deep balls or back-shoulder passes.

Everyone was great against the Giants.

Hey, they've got it down to tenths of a percentage point, we have to just trust their science.

Dak has chem finally with CD, now lets watch Pollards receiving game underneath go insane when he doesn't have Safeties sitting on him.

you know some of you while i agree they have chemistry , they've always had chemistry CD's gotten better every single year. He had a career year last year and now maybe resets that, dak and cd were always a good pair.

how they were used was on Moore, the fact he didnt always have threats to help take pressure off him, and the defense effecting targets but umm last year was a stellar year for Lamb. ironic those who questioned lambs #1 status mostly going off many games missed by dak and with rush lamb was struggling and BAM switch went on right away when dak came back.. made up for lost time..

these narratives have to be quelled. Dak to CD has steadily increased every year..chem,sity was there the entire time and made cooper expendable if you need proof.

sometimes it is the scheme the coaching the play calls etc when players slump for a game or 2 , another example is the way tony pollard was being used and now being used now comes full circle and is effecting his game..same issue. early in his career not used enough, now too much and in the wrong way IMHO.. they need to get rico the ball more and allow TP to rediscover his impact plays.

will go find his private and personal email and start getting in his ear lol however isn't when a player cut from a team they have to go through waivers and teams with worse records could pick him up first? i'm not a true expert on how that works but i'm pretty sure that's how it works. there no guarantee he would get to choose the boyz.

The giants are a dumpster fire so I’d certainly hope the team looked good. We need to win these next 3 games

It really looks like MM let Dak go and is not restraining him. This also helps his talent around him.

 

[Big_D]

Either the Giants are just this terrible or Gallup and Cook are heating up at the right time? Time for some consistency!

 

[blueblood70]

and yet two teams have lost to the giants and the bills only beat them 14 - 9.. i just want to make sure you and other zoners understand that other teams play the giants, and beating A team 89 -17 and two games it's not normal for a league of built in parity. i know a win is a win but if we only wion 14-9, what would be the narrative right now. dont answer i know what it will be like the Houston game last year or the complaints in the colts win that we scored all our blowout point in garbage time but the other 3 qtrs were blasted., see how this works with this fan base... this fanbase doesn't like Just wins agianst lower end teams bit also dont like fanbase bragging about 89-17-point differentials LMAO.. Noone is ever happy,,ughh you know ike beating tb12 and the bucs on the road in payoff game in the same manner nope it doesnt count lmao

it's it's the same thing with new England and the jets, our wins were complete blowouts. yet other teams have struggled or lost to those teams..hey but Cowboys fans shouldn't be happy we beat them so bad it was NOT even competitive in Parity league... those types of lopsided wins aren't supposed to happen much but 4 in one season so far..

[jazzcat22]

I'm not seeing that. His plodding 1+ ypc last year and $18M contract had to go.

Tony Pollard and Rico Dowdle are fine. And they haven't even started incorporating the rooks yet.

Oh, I know, his contract was an issue. And I understand why. I still say they miss him for the short yardage and goal line situations.
The RB's now have been underwhelming. Not impressed. Well, I do like Dowdle. Maybe it is starting to get better. But I am not pleased with it overall.
